that there will be 10 mutuel machines

Johnson IS ARRESTED
ON WHITE SLAVE CHARGE
Federal Grand Jury Returns
Indictment-PugiIist
Freed on Bonds.

CHICAGO, November Slack Johnson,
champion heavyweight prize fighter, was
arrested by federal officers last night,
charged with a violation Of the Mann
white slave law. His arrest followed
return Of the federal grand jury of an
indictment charging him with having
caused the transportation of Belle Schre
ber q white woman, twenty six years old,
from Pittsburgh to Chicago. August 10,
1910, for an unlawful purpose.
Federal officers searched the South Side
several hours before Johnson was found
hiding in a hotel surrounded by four
negro guards.
Guards Pushed Aside.
An attempt was at first made by the
guards to prevent the officers from en-
tering Johnson's rooms, but they were
pushed aside and the government war
rant served on the prize fighter without
serious difficulty.
At the federal building tears came to
his eyes as the officers put handouts on
his wrists.
You don't have to do this, I'm not go
ing to run away he said. I'm square,
you ought to know that"
His bonds had been txed at $780, but
al! the federal judges had left the build
ing for the night and declined to leave
their homes to go through the formality
of accepting bail.
After several hours work johnson
found a court clerk willing to act. and
the prizef1ghter was taken to the home of
his aged mother. on the South Side. who
signed the bonds along with several
others, and johnson was released from
custody.

CHAPTER XVIII.
Martin Luther.

All this time Harriet remained in her
room, pacing up and down the floor, paus-
ing at every sound to listen at the win
dow. Perched on the window SILL Martin
Luther mewed insistently, his head press
ed against the loaded glass. Why did he
new like that?
Suddenly 1t seemed to Harriet that Mar
tin Luther had been mewing for an in
finite period of time. She opened the
window, and the cat half way through,
hesitated, as il considering whether it
was really advisable to go out. after all.
Then. sliding softly downward to the roof
OF the conservatory, he disappeared round
the angle of the house.
Where had the cat gone? Harriet had
an inherent aversion to cats, her tolera-
ton Of Martin Luther being a strong tes-
timonial to her love for Horatio. but she
had moments Of believing, as he did. that
cats possess a fearful knowledge not
shared by men. Why had Martin Luther
acted SO strangely? Where had he gone?
turned away from the window the dark
ness Of the room, deepened by contrast
filled her with sudden panic. She hur-
ried from the house. and her growing
flight was like the progress of night
mare.
Out Of doors the dew-cooled air pressed
her forehead like the hand of nurse.
The velvet blending Of darkness and
light, silence and sound, was Infinitely
soothing.
To and fro she paced the darkening
lawn, each time venturing a little far
ther. Behind the lodge II was quite
black under the cedars. Out In the lane
the shadows were terrifying.
The hours passed.
Some one was coming. Harriet listened
fearfully. leaning back against the steep
hank among the pungent ferns, her heart
beating painfully. AS the steps came
nearer and she recognized Lionel. her
relief from the terror OF a strange man
turned to despair. Horatio was not with
him.
''Lionel. is that your

BIG CONTRACT AWARDED
BY CANAL COMMISSION
Repair of Ships and Upkeep of
Machinery at Panama to
Be Provided For.

In execution of it's extensive plans for
the operation of the Panama canal the
canal commission has awarded contract
to the United States Steel Products Com
pany for 100000 pounds of structural
steel work, representing a value of about
$41OOO The works to be undertaken
are separate entirely from the canal con-
struction. They include all the facilities
that the government Is to provide for the
repair Of ships; the upkeep Of the vast
canal machinery itself, the handling of
coal and liquid fuel for the shipping
which is expected to patronize the canal.
permanent Office buildings and accommo-
dations for the small army of employees
which will be required to operate the
canal not only mechanically but finan-
cially, for there will be a large force of
clerks and engineers under permanent
employmet
forge shops, steel storage sheds, paint
and car shops, planning mills, foundrtes
coke sheds, boiler houses, roundhouses
and gashouses.
Some Other Needs.
Other facilities to be supplied are 600
foot piers for commercial use at Bal
boa, two Wharves and one pier at Chris
tobal, besides a mole and breakwater, to
be followed by four other piers should
the traffic justify it. There will be
great dry dock at Balboa, 1000 feet long,
capable of accommodating any vessel
that can pass through the canal locks.
A smaller dry dock at Balboa will han
die the vessels up to $50 feet in length.
AS the government is going into the
business of supplying merchant vessels
with fuel water and other supplies. the
commission has located a coaling plant
on the Atlantic side capable OF handling
and storing 100000 tons of coal, one
half of which will be kept under water,
where it has been found to better retain
its gaseous contents. There will be "a
lesser coaling plant on the Pacific side,
at Balboa. capable of storing 100000
tons Of coal under and above water.
In recognition of the rapid substitution
of oil for coal a marine fuel, the COM
mission has planned to erect four steel
tanks of 10000 barrels capacity each,
and contracts already have been placed
for their construction.

Lionel obeyed, and together they fold

Il say, Kate he said. presently,

The countess was leaving the room to

it. She stopped short and came back to
Lionel. There was look on her face
that startled him.

1t was her turn to be startled. She
had expected CONSERVATION, at the very

when 1 heard the servants had all bolted

He leaned forward and lowered his
voice. IF it hadn't been for US four

For a moment there was dead silence.
