PLACING
Mines IN
PACIFIC

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Despite
the entente cordiale between the Of
.ficials of the state department and
the members of the diplomatic corps,
it was learned Friday that the gov
ernment has quietly transported sub
marine mines to all the harbors of
Importance on the Pacific coast.
1t was also learned that several
cargoes of the underwater explosi-
YES have been sent to the Philippines,
Guam and Hawaii, and that orders
for their immediate placing have
been issued.
The work was intrusted to Briga-
dier General Arthur Murray, chief of
the United. States coast artillery. 1t
is announced that the plans for the
protection of Puget sound, San Fran
cisco, San Diego and the Columbia
river harbors have been under way
for some time, and the planting of
mines is part of the program of self
defense which would have been fol-
lowed irrespective of any differences
with any nation.
Two vessels equipped for mine
planting have been ordered to San
Francisco from Fortress Monroe and
two to the Philippines. 1t is intimat-
ed that the work of mine laying has
been finished on the Atlantic coast
and mine planters will not be provid-
ed for the eastern seaboard.

Take my life, but spare my

Such was the probable cry of an
old-time prospector named Miller, he
of the yellow dog and flowing whisk-
ers, Friday night when a holdup man
got him, according to Miller's story.
The old fellow was homeward bound
along dark street in the "Barbary
coast" section of town, with couple
of bottles of whisky in his arms and
dollar in his hip pocket. When the
stand-up artist told him to stand and
deliver the old gent politely told him
as the existence of the dollar in his
hip pocket, but when the bold, bad
man wanted the whisky, too, Miller
rebelled. The thief was good fell
low, however, and took but one
bottle OF booze and the dollar.

has issued an ultimatum to Servia,
ordering Servia to stop her aggres-
siveness on the Austrian frontier un-

Such move would not surprise
London. Despite the constant official
denials, it is known here that guer-

for months. There is general feel
ing here that the situation in the
Balkans is as serious as ever and
that important developments may be
