 Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 3.-The as. sailant of Charles B. Roberts is known and has been known since the night when the Baltimore banker and club man was shot down on the boardwalk while in company with Mrs. W. S. G. Williams of that city. The person who identified his would be slayer was Roberts himself in an antemortem statement. The pistol with which the shooting was done has been located, thus completing the chain of evidence. The man who shot Roberts is tech nically under arrest
 These statements were vouched for by the manager of local private de- tective agency which was called in to assist the Atlantic City police in clear ing up the mystery. This agency does not deal with crime, but makes a spe- cialty of gathering evidence for di- vorce cases -.-.
 It is declared by the manager of the detective agency that remarkable condition of affairs has tied the hands of the police and that only the death of Roberts will allow them to make arrests and prosecute the man and q woman confederate named by MT. Rob erts in his antemortem statement. Before making his statement MT. Roberts is said to have exacted a pledge from the hospital physicians and the detective representing the po- lice department that no action would be taken in the event of his recovery; that the matter of dealing out punish ment to those who had wronged him be left entirely in his hands.
 Then, with the belief that he had but one chance in ten to survive his wound, MT. Roberts is said to have named the man and the woman who bounded him on the boardwalk until he was driven to desperation and attacked the man, with the result that the latter drew a revolver and shot him.

been opened officially on the question of the recognition of Mulai Hafd and the German note becomes objectless."
 The morning newspapers, with un- usual unanimity. express indignation at Germany's ''disconcerting duplici- ty."
 Calls German Views IntoIerabIe.
 L'Action says that Germany's pre- tensions as at present revealed are so provoking that no French government could tolerate them without humila- tion.
 Officials can see only in Germany's action a virtual proclamation of her intentions to disregard the Algeciras act and seek a special position in Mo- rocco for herself. The consequences both from the international and the French standpoint are expected to be deplorable.
 As if in answer to Germany's call for recognition of Mulai Hafid before he has entered into any engagements with Europe fanatical Arabs who had been gathered on the Algerian frontier attacked the French post at Boudenib
 According to prominent govern ment official, the situation Is as fol , lows:
 "Germany's notification came as a complete surprise to France and Spain, which are engaged in elaborating a programme of demands to be present. ed to Mulai Hafid for the safeguarding of the common interests of Europe and America in Morocco.
 "crash Out of Blue Sky
 These demands are to be submitted to the signatories of the Algeciras act as soon as they are completed, and the ago. Germany took no exception tG this course, and we presumed that she was entirely satisfied until suddenly there came this crash out of blue sky.
 There was no longer any question of upholding Abd,el-Aziz. Both France and Spain recognized that he had dis appeared definitely from the horizon. What we proposed to do was to force Mulai Hafd to ratify the engagements of his brother. Abd-el-Aziz toward Europe before recognizing him. Now, Germany comes forward with a propo- sition to recognize Mulai Hafd before he has given any guarantee. It amounts to undoing the work of the Algeciras conference and reverting to the status quo ante. The powers must decide between the position of Ger many and that of France. The French position we consider to be most loyal to the spirit and letter of the Algeciras act"
 cIemenceau Absent From Post.
 The absence of Premier Clemenceau from Paris increases the difficulties of the situation, as no important step can be taken without his consent.
 The French press is unanimous ir considering Germany's action provoca- tive and possibly productive of an acute crisis. All the newspapers con trast this step with Emperor Williams recent pacific utterances at Strasburg, and they recall alleged similar incon- sistencies in Germany's position dur ing the Algeciras crisis.
 One newspaper characterizes Ger many's step as the most malevOlent action of Emperor William since he iisembarked at Tangier and proclaim sd Abd-elAziz the independent sover- eign of the Sherifian empire"
 After an informal conference by the ministers and the exchange of tele- grams with Premier Clemenceau an- aouncement was made that France in- tends to pursue the policy already .>anped out and that the powers will

Anty Drudge is Progressive,

Mrs. HaOise-'Td like to use gas stove but need 60 much hot water for washing and scrubbing.' Anty Drudge" My dear woman! Are you progressive enough to use gas range and still wash and scrub @ with hot water and od-fashioned soaps Don't you know that with Fes- -Naptha you can do all your washing and cleaning in cold or lukewarm water do it easier and better than with hot water 2"
 Every woman knows what a nuisance a hot fire Is on summers day. Fels-Naptha is double blessing:
 It not only does the washing easier and better, but it cleans the clothes in cold or lukewarm water without a grilling fire to boil them. No over-heated kitchen; no nauseating steam; no putting your hands into hot water to roughen and redden them.
 Add to this advantage the saving of time, labor, fuel and clothes, and you have some idea why women who have once washed with Fels-Naptha will have no other soap.
 but you must wash the Fels-Naptha way in cold or lukewarm water; never boil the clothes or use boiling water.
 When you unwrap a cake of -Naptha, pin the wrapper on the wall in your laundry, and follow the plainly printed directions.
 Be sure it is red and green wrapper.

DRUNKEN HUSBAND KILLED
BY WIFE AT RAWHIDE

RAWHIDE, New, July 20.-Oliver
Henry Lefevre, while under the influ-
ence of liquor last night, went home
and, taking his revolver from a shelf,
announced that he was going to shoot
out the lights.
His wife attempted to dissuade him
and struggled with him. In the strug-
gle the weapon was discharged and the
bullet lodged in the mans groin, in
f1icting a fatal wound. Lefevre died
at an early hour this morning, exon
Grating his wife, who had been placed
under arrest before he died.
There was considerable stir over the
affair, the impression being that the
man had been killed by his wife Lee
fevre enjoyed a good reputation except
when drinking, and then was said to
be a dangerous man. The couple had
been married 20 years and were con
ducting a fruit and vegetable store.
The %coroner's jury exonerated the
woman this afternoon, but she was
held for trial with a bond of $500.

STOCKMEN AT WAR
IN LANDER COUNTY

AUSTIN, Nevada. July 20.-The
feud that has been smoldering for
some time with sheepmen and cattle
men as the principals, has at last brok-
en- out in Lander county. The climax
was reached last week in the Grass
valley section when George Watt,
president of the Lander County Live
Stock association, attempted to eject
one of the Espile brothers and his
sLecp from what he claimed wis asso
citation range.
According to Watts story he had
been notified that sheep belonging
to the Espile brothers were being pas
tured on this range, and he went out
to investigate, accompanied by Bill
Echivere. one of his riders. Watt
claims that he found the sheep in
charge of the herder on the company
range and that when he ordered them
off the herder said that he had in
structions to shoot anyone who at
tciiptcu 10 put III anu HIS Shccp ou,
and according to instructions opened
FIRE on Watt with a rifle. One shot
was fred and Watt, who claims he
was unarmed, succeeded in getting
hold of the gun. and with his fists
gave the man a severe beating. While
the fistic contest was going on Watt
claims that he and his companion was
fred upon by parties who were con
cealed behind the rocks further up
the mountain. Six more shots were
fred, and not caring to listen longer
to the music of cold lead, Watt states
that he and his companion lost no
time in mounting their horses and re-
treating.
The Espile brothers claim that no
shots were fred at Watt and his
were fred, but state that the bullets
were intended for a coyote that was
lowering around further up the
mountain.
The disputed ground lies on what
is known as Bald mountain in the
Grass valley section. 1t is public do
main and is not included in the
forest reserve.

RECEIVER OF STATE BANK

RENO, July 20.-Gross mismanage-
ment, the ~extravagant use of deposit
ors' money in the five Hickey banks,
the construction of costly Office build
ings and maintenance Of clerkships
large enough for a Wall street insti-
tuition, the loaning of funds to deposit
ors who did not give 1925 cents worth
of security the practical embezzle-
ment of deposits, is charged to the
president and directors of the State
Bank and Trust company by Receiver
Frank l.. Wildes.
The receiver filed his report today
Fifteen pages of this report are given
to a recital of the defects in the con
duet of the Hickey institutions. Wildes
says that the best management was
shown in Carson. The construction OF
the office building in Tonopah, the in
determined value and "other whole
sale extravagances,' is condemned.
The receiver believes that a 10 pei
cent dividend will be paid depositors
in a few weeks. The institution owes
about 81, 09s 900 and its assets, accord
ing to Wildes' appraisement, amount
to 100000. Suits and indictments
against the officials of the institution
will probably be pressed at once as a
result of the receivers report.
The Tonopah branch is criticized as
having been run on a "free-house'
principle, and that loans were made in
discriminatory. The conditions al
Manhattan and Goldfeld branches run
about the same as the Tonopah branch
