him to take charge of the arrangements

CAUGHT BIG FISH
IN THEIR NET
Thirteen Prominent Motorists Are
Fined for Driving Cars at
High Speed.
Detectives Reap Harvest Thru
Series Of Experiments with
Stop Watches.

Police Superint endent Doyle s detec-
tives are not playing favorites in their
crusade against automobile drivers who
violate the ordinance which limits the
speed to eight miles an hour, and this
morning thirteen chauffeurs, among
them several prominent business men,
We're arraigned in police court where
they received sentences of $25 or ten
days each.
The arrests were the result Of weeks
of hard work by members of the de-
tecJive force who have held the stop
watches on the speeders. When the OF.
Tenders names were called in court, all
but two of them We're on hand to plead
guilty to the charge. The two not ap-
pearing were Thomas shevlin, Jr., the
well-known Yale athlete, and E. s..
Powell. They could not be found this
morning and bench warrants will prob
ably be issued for their arrest.
Brought Attorneys.
Altho the defendants were all on
hand they brought their attorneys with
them that they might be relieved of the
embarrassment, of personally stating
the particulars of their offense to the
court. They seemed to treat the mat
ter as joke, but a hint was given by
Judge Waite that a repetition Of the Of
Tense would be considered in a much
more serious light. s s
Those appearing and paying fines
were: Horace Lowry, son of Thomas
| Lowry; F. B. Snyder, a well-known at,
torney; S. S. Thorpe, of Thorpe Broth
ers; G. T.. Jaffray, cashier of the First
National bank; g. Fritsche, promi.

The detectives stationed themselves
on the popular auto athorofares and
! equipped with stopwatches, were able
to tell the exact speed Of all. the ma
chimes. The lowest speed recorded was
nineteen miles an hour. A few nights
ago the speeding chuffers were stopped
and compelled to give their names tt
I the officers. Warrants were then sworn
out, and with the two exceptions all thu
offenders obeyed them to the letter.
Mayor D. P. Jones some time agt
announced that no partiality would b,
shown in making arrests, and that I'm

would be brought into court as fast a
evidence could be gathered. The polio,
are still working and other arrests ar
expected. A special watch will be KEEP

overshadowing other peace conference

visit to Mr.. Witte last night Of Jacob II.
Schiff, Isaac D. Seligman, Adolph Lew
isohn and Oscar s. Straus, representing
not only the Jewish citizens of New
York, but also one Of the greatest bank

These men came on invitation Of Mr.
Witte, who it is believed came here
with, instructions from his government
to open a way to float loan in this
country in the event of peace being
agreed upon. - u.a =
According to Wall street story cir
culated here today, when he approached
a prominent Jewish banker here with
the suggestion that Russia would like
to float bond issue here, he was. asked
pointedly whether Russia proposed to
continue her policy of oppression to-
ward the Jews, and it was intimated to
him that if it did, all attempts to Sc
cure credit in this country would be dis
cO1tinued

Humanity, or No Loan.

Mr.. Witte was told that. the massacre
Of Kishinef had aroused great resent.

that such loan could not possibly be
successful until assurance of a complete

Russia is made. H. s.a - ...-- g..
It is said Mr.. Witte thereupon sug-

and that his suggestion received the
approval Of the czar.

headed by Mr.. Schif, in addition to
their discussion Of Jewish conditions in
Russia, had very animated, interest

ttWhat About a Loan?'~

They were frankly told by Mr.. Witto
that he deemed it impossible to make
peace with Japan without paying an in
demnity in some form or another, and
were asked what they could do in the
way Of supplying money.
Mr. Witte impressed on them the idea
that he did not intend to pay money
for peace, and that Russia would never
consent to the cession Of territory. His
remarks were general and related en-
tirely to the obtaining of money by
Russia for some specific purpose he. did
not mention.
The fact is that White, altho he has
ment of an indemnity of any kind. is
merely seeking way to salve over
that indemnity SO that it will not ap-
pear as so much cash paid out Of hand
to the japanese. Mr.. Witte, it is con-
fidently stated here, has no idea that
peace can be secured without paying
money to Japan. He is here to get
peace if he can get it. If that peace
entails the payment of money it is
Whites idea to make the payment an
indirect one instead of direct one.

Japs Want Half a BILLION.

! . @
The first draft Of the terms, which
were basis for negotiations rather
than anything else, contained demand
that the principle of reimbursement to
Japan for the money spent in prosecut-
ing the war must be established, and
left the amount open to be fixed by
this peace conference. If Japan sue
| ceeds in establishing the principle. the
slightest possible sum she will ask. from
Russia will be $500,OO0,00o, or one bill
| lion yen. It has been stated that this
is the minimum demand Of the JAMS,
The general expectation is that japan
will ask approximately $3.50 900 900.
Russia will .balk at. this and if the nego-
iations split they will split on this
| point. s,
AL the extraneous signs that led to a
conclusion that peace will be obtained
have now been discounted. The envoys
| are deep in their work The crucial
test will come within a short time.

Competition by Bankers.

There is already keen. competition
among the banking houses OF. the world
to obtain the sale Of the money needed
by Russia for an indemnity Kuhn,
Loeb & Co.. and associates have made
their bid, SO have the Rothschilds and
other great banking houses of the world.
They all desire to sell money to Russia
for peace, but none is anxious to lend
money for war.
Peace is not yet certain. Indeed,
1t IS held in many quarters to be i'm
possible. Tt is stated notwithstanding
all this dickering for money and ali
the inquiries that have been made in
the. money centers Of the world, Russia
will eventually refuse to pay an indem-
nifty. 1t is certain that Japan will de-
mand an indemnity. 80 -,

Canadian View of tho Situation '

It is characteristic of our ueighbors that their newspapers should treat as a jest the idea that the people of Alaska should desire to cut loose and annex their territory to Canada. But the matter is worth more than a jest. The Americans in Alaska have learned some lessons, and have had experiences which have led to much serious think, ing. They have been forced to see that Canadian rule in the Yukon is incom, parably better than American rule in Alaska-better in every way. Toronto Star.

THE joint statehood scheme has gone glimmering. It disappeared with the advent of the congressional party that recently visited Arizona and New Mexico. Even Congress man Tawney, who was the last to commit himself on the subject, fin ally declared himself positively against the scheme, both in Arizona and New Mexico. In Kansas City he was quoted as follows:
 "Conditions are not yet ripe for the admission of either Arizona or New Mexico separately or together into the Sisterhood of states.
 ''I believe the wisest course for the two territories to pursue at this time is to cease all agitation for state hood. They are not ready for it.
 "There is nothing wrong with the people or the natural conditions that prevail in either territory. Both are enjoying progress, and the federal government is giving them justice in every particular.
 Capital is not going there while political conditions are in transitory state, with possibility of a change of administration during the next two or three years.
 "There will be no move toward statehood for Arizona in any form in the next congress; that has been de- cided upon."

pardon. In one of these affidavits the statement is made that Trimble received 5000 from hls sister, which he proposed to use in an attempt to buy the jury, but was thwarted in his purpose.
 With evidence of this kind in his possession, and with a most vigorous protest from District Attorney Raw lins, setting out the above facts and many more, it is no wonder that Governor Brodie refused to interfere with the sentence as imposed by the Graham county jury.
 But what can be said for Governor Kibbey?
 Is it possible that he was imposed upon, and not in poss ession of all the facts?
 Is it possible that some of the papers could have been taken from the records of the case at about the time of Governor Brodie's retirement?
 This could have easily been done and must have been done, for surely Governor Kibbey would not pardon a man convicted of such a serious crime, with these affdavits in his possession.
