LONDON, Jan. 29.-With each
side assured of 267 seats the tie
between the conservatives and the
liberals in the parliamentary elec-

Conservatives, 273; liberals,
271; Irish nationalists, SO; labor

If this prediction holds good,
the liberals with their allies I'M

sick, pom my soul, sir, to think OF
them dying of thirst and all that,
and me here safe and sound, SO
to speak,"
That night Haddan and a fell
low subaltern attempted to leave
the castle grounds by way of the
private. gate In the western wall,
only to be driven back by careful
watchers on the outside. A sec
ond attempt. was made at two
o'clock. This time they went
through the crypt into the secret
underground passage. AS they
crawled forth into the blacklist of
nights, clear of the walls, they
were met by perfect fusillade of
rife shots. Haddan's companion
was shot through the leg and arm
and it was with extreme difficulty
that the pair succeeded in regain
ing the passage and closing the
door. No other attempt was made
that night. Sunday night a quick
sortie was made, 1t being the hope
of the besieged that two selected
men might elude Marlanx's watch
dogs during the melee that fol-
lowed. Curiously enough, the only
men killed were the two who had
been chosen to run the gauntlet
in the gallant, but ill-timed at
tempt to reach John Tullis.
On Monday morning the first di-
rect word from Count Marlanx
came to the castle. Under a fagl
of truce, two of his men were ad-
mitted to the grounds. They pre-
sented the infamous ultimatum of
the Iron Count. In brief. it an
nounced the establishment of al
dictatorship pending the formal
assumption of the crown by the
conqueror. With scant courtesy
the Iron Count begged to inform
Prince Robin that his rule was at
an end. Surrender would result
in his safe conduct to America, the
home of his father; defiance would
just SO surely end in death for him
and all of his friends. The Prince
was given twenty-four hours in
which to surrender his person to
the new governor of the city. With
the expiration of the time limit
mentioned, the castle would bel
.shelled from the fortress, greatly
as the dictator might regret the
destruction of the historic and
well-beloved structure. No one |
would be spared if it became nee
essary to bombard the rejection
of his offer of mercy would be
taken as a sign that the defenders
were ready to die for a lost cause.
He would cheerfully see to 1t that
they died as quickly as possible,
in order that the course of gov
eminent might not be INSTRUCTED
any longer than necessary.

John A. Peterson, Former Con-
vict, Decamps With $3.50
Victim Invested

OAKLAND, Jan 21.-Jolln A. Peter
son, alias Kofoed, erstwhile head of
the Realty and Brokerage company at
13 Telegraph avenue. has disappeared
and his partner, C. H. Thrane of Berke-
ley. is bemoaning the loss of $3.50,
which he says he invested in the con-
Germ when the glib arguments ad-
enter into partnership agreement
Incidentally, the police have learned
that Peterson is a former convict and
that he has been divorced by his wife,
who is now remarked and living in
Chicago.
1t was from the wife. whose new
name is Mrs. Esther Ortlepp, that the
police gained their knowledge of Pc
Iterson's criminal record, which was
afterward confirmed by the prison au-
|thorities of Utah. Peterson served a
lis months term in the state prison
there for impersonating a United States
officer in 19Q3-4
In October last Peterson opened Of
fees in this city and advertised himself
widely as the originator and promoter
of a scheme to make great fortunes
out of real estate. He succeeded in in
Iteresting a number of people in his
plans and induced c. II. Thrane of 1911
Ward street, Berkeley. to become his
partner. Soon after Thrane paid over
the $3.50, which was TO he his invest
ment in the company. Peterson started
for Los Angeles, telling his partner
that he had to attend TO some company
business. He has never returned, and
Thrane is totally unaware of his pres
ent wherea bouts. The police have been
unable to extend any hope of remu-
neration to Thrane, for, even in the
event that he can locate his elusive
partner, no criminal charge will obtain
gainst him, owing to the fact that the
money was partnership property.
Peterson cut quite a swath in certain
circles during his stay in this city
and managed to establish credit with
number of local businessmen. He ad-
vertised heavily and is said to have
left a number of unpaid bills behind
him.

LAD DRINKS BLUING AND
KNIFE SAVES HIS LIFE
Operation on Stomach Needed
to Prevent Starvation

ALAMEDA, Jan. 21.-The swallowing
of a pint of washing bluing two years
ago by Freddie Liuderman. the young
son of J. c. Linderman of 1880 High
street, so affected the entrance TO the
lads stomach that it was difficult for
him to swallow. and he was in danger
of starving to death.
The boy was taken to the Alameda
sanatorium few days ago and oper-
ated upon by DR.. w. c. Clark. The
operation was successful and the pa
tient is now recovering.
According TO physicians the entrance
to the boys stomach would have closed
tightly by the action OF the bluing and
death would have resulted.
Young Linderman drank the bluing
on dare from a companion. When he
complained later of his difficulty in
swallowing, several physicians ex-
amined the boy, but his ailment baf-
fed them. When he finally admitted
that he had swallowed bluing, correct
diagnosis of his trouble was made and
it was decided to operate.

OAKLAND. Jan. sf-Fsre Marshal
n. A Ball will receive the salary Of
$3,6OO a year that was voted him last
month by the city council. Judge Waste
today decided against CITY AuditOc
Gross and ruled that the action of tho
council was legal and binding. Gross
held UP Balls salary on the ground
that il was not a valid claim.
AS fire chief of Oakland Ball received
a salary of $3.50 month for years. The
city charter fixed this salary and IL
could not be changed by ordinance.
Ball asked for more money and the
municipal authorities felt that he was
entitled to substantial raise, but
could see no way 10 give it to him
until it was suggested that he resign
his position as fire chief and accept
that of fire marshal. which is not a
charter position.
An ordinance creating this place was
passed a few weeks ago and Ball was
appointed to fill it, He assumed his
duties December 10. Gross refused 70
audit his salary claim at the end OF
the month and mandamus proceedings
were instituted TO test the validity OF
