AWAITING DOOM, 1000 LEPERS LIVE cARE-FREE
But IN DREADFUL LIONEL lNESS At MOlOKAl
GIRL HELD BY
HORSE THIEVES

SEATTLE, Aug. 9.-Elmer A.
Johnson, who was brought from Mt.
Vernon on the evidence furnished
the officers by his 18-year-old wife,
who was arrested at Arlington last
Saturday, denies that the young
woman is married to him, claiming
that she insisted upon following
him around the country after their
first meeting last March. He also
denies being party to stealing the
horses from Hanson's stable at
Kirkland.
The officers believe that John
son Is the head of a gang Of horse
thieves which operated around the
shores of Lake Washington and
Georgetown for several weeks last
May and June.
Johnson's story Of there being no
marriage ceremony is believed.
Their theory is that fake marriage
was performed by one of the gang,
representing himself to the girl as
justice of the peace.
The girl, who is IS years old and
about to become a mother. is con.
sidered innocent of criminal intent
being entirely under control OF
Johnson.

P|L|NG Up

SEATTLE, Aug. Claims total
ing $107,753.69 have been filed
against the government, according
to Will H. Thompson, special mas
ter in chancery in the George Ed
ward Adams suit involving the right
of Alaska miners and banks to re-
cover gold stolen by the former as
say office cashier, now in the gov
eminent prison at McNeil's island.
The last claims have been filed, the
total number being 1913, and the
special master will make his re-
port Sept. to Federal Judge Han
ford.
Only $4,000 has been allowed so
far, and the probable total allow
ance will be about $4,000, meaning
that about one-third of the amount
claimed will not be allowed.

been ordered sold to the highest
bidder by the United States district

MUST GIVE PHONE SERVICE

HELENA. Aug. 9.--The Rocky
Mountain Bell Telephone Co. has
been peremptorily ordered to re-
sumo it's service by Judge Bach on
penalty of FORGETTING its charter.
The court held that the efforts OF
striking employees to pursuade
others not to take their places did
not excuse inability to furnish
phone service, and the court ex-
pressed an opinion that the COM
pany could obtain operators If salts
factory wages are offered. He
ruled that the cost of operating the
systems was immaterial as a point
at issue He held that the COM
pany is guaranteed ample protec-
ton from interference on account
of the strike and must resume its
service

New England states are practically
unanimous that Roosevelt should

Ten districts of New York report
mo on the question to 6 that

fight. Ohio is II against to 9 for
a third Teddy term. California,
Kansas, Kentucky and Wisconsin
are about evenly divided on this
question.

south, most of those states voting

The answer can only be definitely
settled at the great national con-

But-there are indications today

popularity of the candidates now in
the field may sweep on following its
present direction.
An effort has been made by this

some reasonable indication of the
trend Of public sentiment.
Herewith is presented the result
of postal card vote which has
