SEA CAPTAIN "PIPED UP"
BY IMMIGRANT OFFICER
Master of the Ammon Accused of
Negligence in Allowing Allies
to Land illegally

Captain j. Ebeling, master of the
German ship Ammon, was arrested
yesterday by Deputy United States
Marshal w. s. Gillett on a warrant is
sued by United States Commission
Heacock on complaint of United States
Immigrant Inspector d. J. Griffiths. who
charges the defendant with having al
lowed e. L. HoItz, an alien seaman.
to be landed without permission of
the immigrant authorities.
Captain Ebeling testified before the
commissioner that he had employed a
watchman to prevent any of the aliens
on board from landing, and that it
was not until after Holtz had escaped
that the captain heard that a scow
was moored alongside the ship and
that possibly Holtz had dropped into
the scow and thus got ashore. other
wise he must have been drowned.
After argument by w. c. Beaizley.
the defendants attorney, Judge Hea-
cock was convinced that Captain Ebe-
ling had used all due precautions to
prevent the escape and dismissed the
charge.
Holtz had been detained by the
federal quarantine officer. Dr. Trotter.
on account of being afflicted with a
contagious disease of the eyes. He has
not been recaptured. and it Is doubt
full whether he succeeded in getting
ashore alive.

~
CHINESE

Among the passengers who arrived

after a tour of the world in his yacht
Alcedo. which he left at Yokohama.
Drexel was accompanied by his wife.
L. L. Biddle, his nephew. and his ply
way to Maine. where Drexel has a sum-
mer home.
The Drexels Joined the Alcedo at
Queenstown last September and after a
leisurely cruise through the Mediterra-
mean proceeded to the orient. After vis-
iting Manila and various ports IN China
and Japan they reached Yokohama.
where they Joined the Korea The AL
cedo is being taken TO Philadelphia by
the crew. Since disposing of the Phila-
delphia Ledger a few years ago Drexel
has devoted his time TO travel. He
owns a number of yachts. large and
small, and both he and his wife are
lovers of the sea.
Another well known passenger on the
Korea was Barbour Lathrop, who has
been around the world so many times
that he has lost count. While in Naples

the Korea. She helped TO establish a
school, on the island for the Chomorro
children, and when she left the mission
was preparing to care for the children
of lepers. bereft of their parents by the
regulation, which demands the isola-
tion of all victims of this dread disease.
There were a number of missionaries
on the Korea, who all spoke enthusiast
tically of the international Young Mems
Christian association convention, re-
Gently held at Tokyo, at which Marquis
Ito subscribed 10000 yen to the organi-
zation.
The passengers on the Korea from
China were divided in opinion as to the
seriousness OF the present outbreaks.
The majority seemed to regard them
lightly, but General E. r. Champlin of
Boston considered the fact that so few
details could be secured in China a
possible indication of the seriousness
of the situation.

wonnan's Venture in Turkey Raising.

VvVJtMU . vSVSOG0 W. V0sOUsSs
A farmers wife near Parsons has
found that raising turkeys is better
than digging gold or holding Standard
Oil stock. She marketed her turkeys
last week and went home with her
pockets full of gold.
The woman was Mrs. ]. F. Leonard,
living seven miles southeast of Par
sons. Last spring she started to raise
this years crop Of turkeys with a big
flock of young birds. She worked hard
during the spring and summer months
to keep the rats and rain from getting
away with them. Last fall she looked
upon the flock of fine large birds.
When she rounded them up and
brought them to Parsons to market
there were 133 of them, and as the av-
crage weight was ten or twelve
pounds each, at the market price she
received more than $3.50 for the two
loads they made.-Parsons Sun.
