DUCKS TRAPPED IN CRUDE OIL
Unable to Distinguish It From Waten
They Cannot RIse--Product Is
Ruined by Dead Bodies.

Tampico, Mexico.-Wild ducks are
causing losses aggregating many thou
sands Of dollars to the oil operators OF
the fields in the Tampico territory.
Owing to the inadequate steel tank
storage facilities, many of the oil pro-
ducers have been forced to build earth
en- tanks to care for the big output Of
crude oil. Some of these earthern
reservoirs contain as much to 2,OO0s
GEO barrels Of the product.
When the present wild duck season
opened it was found that the fowls
were apparently unable to distinguish
the lakes Of oil from water, and as a
result they settled upon the placid
surface Of the oil reservoirs in great
numbers. The oil is thick and heavy,
and the ducks were unable to fly when
their feathers became saturated with
It. As result the trapped ones have
died by thousands, greatly impairinI
and in some cases running the oil.

Memphis, Tenn.-Iying cold in death
are the bodies Of Adam j. Boehler and
wife, whose deaths resulted in the shoot
ing Of three others, two Of them perhaps
seriously, and one of the most desperate
battles ever engaged in by tha police Of
the city.
Boehler, after cutting his wife'b throat
became drunk, barricaded himself in a
room on the third floor of building at
1873 North Main street, ana from 2
o'clock until 1880 succeeded in keeping
a posse Of police at bay, when he was
overcome by fumes from half barrel
Of formaldehyde and then shot 70 death.
For nine hours Boehler and half of the
henderson, the police department. ex.
changed shots. Bullets raned into the
room occupied by the man from every
point Of vantage. High-powdered rifles,
pistols and shotgms were brought into
play. The flooring on which Boehler
stood to train his guns upon the officers
was into veritable sieve by the terrific
fire. The room was literally wrecked.
Attracted by the sounds Of the shoot
ing, crowd of many thousand people
gathered in the vicinity.
From the floors of the rooms above
and below, the walls of the rooms east
and west of Boehler's quarters, and
window of the room opening onto blind
alley just south of the building, steady
fire Of bullets was poured into the build,
ing, and still Boehler lived
He seemed to bear a charmed life Ev-
identity wounded, he had sense enough,
despite the maudlin dvunk, to stagger for
protection over the stone flooring of the
fireplace Of the room.
There he took his last drink of whisky
from bottle which became blood-stained
from the crimson fluid squirting and flow
ing from the mans numerous wounds.
But still Boehler did not surrender.
He trained his small sized arsenal on
officers standing on a sheet of boilerplate
in the room above, who were pouring a
stream Of formaldehyde into the room,
and on officers of the law in the room
just east Of Boehlers. The officers in
the room east were equipped with
pump, and were spraying formaldehyde
in large quantities in the room through
holes broken in the wall by charges from
shotguns.
Boehler was seen to stagger and fall
over onto bed. Overcome by the fumes
and unable to resist any longer, he re-
ceived his mortal wounds from officers
shooting down into the room from the
floor above, Altogether Boehler was
shot seven times.
Before Boehler was taken, Spalding
!. Parsons, druggist, mistaken for Boehl-
er, was shot and seriously wounded by
shots fred by Boehler and Patrolman
Charles Davis was painfully wounded.

Princeton, n, J.-After a months leis.
ure and recreation in the Bermuda Isl
ands, Woodrow Wilson returned home
Monday and took up in earnest the many
tasks that confront him in his dual role
as governor OF New Jersey and president
elect of the United States.
Thousands Of letters awaited Mr., Will
sons arrival, and though most Of them
concerned his national administration, the
president elect made it clear he still was
governor and intended to devote his ener
gies now to State business. Mr.. Wilson
said he would defer office filling and an
nouncements concerning his administra
ton until after he had cleared away the
accumulated detail OF his New Jersey
office.
Mr.. Wilson may remain governor OF
the State until about March /, only a
few days before he goes to Washington
This is because he wishes to finish his
programme Of legislation pending in the
State Legislature, which convenes Jan
uary IA. With respect to his cabinet
Mr.. Wilson said he had not made any
final selections. At no time in his CON
versations with the correspondents who
have been travelling with him constantly
has he mentioned the name of single
individual as a possibility for his cabinet
MrsWilson said he realized that before
decided upon the personnel of his cab
met he would have to determine just
what type of cabinet he would form. He
recognizes two types from review Of
the manner in which his predecessors
have met this question.
One type is the political cabinet con-
structed from party material, that must
in a sense be rewarded in order to pre-
serve party harmony. The other is char
acterized by Mr.. Wilson as the personal
cabinet, made up of men whose business
fitness is known to him personally and
on whose judgment he would like to lean.

GOV, WILSON'S LIFE

UNSIGNED LETTER INTERCEPTED
BY HIS SECRETARY.
DETECTIVES WORK ON CASE
Gov. Wilson Issues Warning to the Poll
ticians of the State Who Have
Opposed His Progressive
Policies.

Newark, N. J.-President-elect Viii.
sons life again has been threatened by
letter writer. The letter was mailed
in New York, received by the governors
secretary at Trenton and turned over to
the postal authorities.
The receipt of the second threatening
letter became known at the arraignment
of Jacob and Warren Dunn and Seeley
Davenport of Wharton, the three So
called mountaineers, who were charged
with having sent Gov. Wilson, on No
yember IL last, letter demanding $1,000
under threat OF death.
Against Jacob Dunn, alleged author Of
the threatening letter, the government
made out strong case, Commissioner
Stockton said.
Gov. Wilson, under subpoena, did not
attend the hearing, and it was said he
would not be required to do SO, mas
much as the letter never reached him.
The second letter threatening the gov
ernors life was unsigned, and dozen
or more secret service men and detec-
tives are seeking to learn the author.
It is understood the missive did not
reach the governor, but was intercepted,
like the first one, by Mr.. Tumulty.
Many Of the secret service men and de-
tectives working on this case were pres.
emit at the hearing. Whether the second
letter was the outgrowth of the first or
was connected with it in any way, Mr..
Lindabury declined to say.
Five witnesses testified at the hearing.
They included the postmaster at Whar-
ton, the mail carrier who took the letter
from rural free delivery box, the car
rier who sold Jacob Dunn three envel
opes similar to the one containing the
letter, Francis A. Butler, a postoffice in
spector, and Louis G. Beckham, a United
States deputy marshal, who made the
arrests. Butler and Beckham both testi-
fed that Jacob Dunn admitted author
ship of the letter at first, but denied
having written it when told that what
he said might be used against him.
