the result is a practical combina-

SWIMMER WILL

RECORD

Rudolph Rebhuhn, a sailor now
living in Tacoma, will attempt the
longest continuous swim ever
made in Tacoma Sunday when he
will plough through the icy wat
ers of Commencement bay from
Pt. Defiance to Clam Cove and
return. Rebhuhn says he has all
ready made several record swims,
including a swim across the Eng
lish channel four years ago from
Dover to Calais. He can easily
swim distance of or 10 miles
continuously, he says.
On Sunday the long-distance
swimmer will plunge into the bay
from the dock at Point Defiance
park pavilion at l o'clock. He
will go straight to Clam Cove, a
distance of 2 1-2 miles, rest for
five minutes and start back. He
expects to MAKE the round trip In
three hours, returning to the pa
yilion at 4 o'clock.
Rubhuhn practices daily at the
Mercedes tank. When he has
perfected himself to even better
condition for long distance swim
ming, he will give professional
exhibition in Tacoma and compete
for some of the worlds records
for long swimming races. He has
already offered to race any anna
teur swimmer in Tacoma for
distance of five miles or more.

TERROR LEFT
IN PATH OF
BULCAR ARMY

ATHENS, July 1S.--Terrible
atrocities are accredited today to
the Bulgarian soldiers who swept
through yesterday. The Greek
war Office charges that wives and
daughters were outraged by the
retreating soldiers before the eyes
of their husbands and parents.
Thirty thousand Mussulmen were
massacred at Doiran, besides
thousands that were horribly mu-
tilated, 1t Is reported.
Noses and ears, the reports say,
were removed from the dying VIC
Tins. Thousands of homes were
burned. The path of the retreat

sands of corpses, It is said. For

Bovce told me today of a set plan.

Hes got to come out. we IL
starve him." he said.
The bandit has come out OF the
thicket when darkness set In In
search of food, drinK and clothes.
1t is reported that the farmers
have aided him. A woman dress
ed his wound on the shoulder, ac-
cording to advices received by
Boyce. Deputies have been placed
in every farm house on the island.
Yesterday, following his viRt to
the cannery he got food or. the
west coast. There will be two
men waiting for him If he ven-
lures there again.
1t may be hours, 1t may be days,
but 1t looks as If the robber is
playing a losing game.
If he tries to run the blockade
of the patrol boats there VIII be
bullets waiting for him. Should
he attempt to visit farm house,
there will be battle and blood
shed.
Yesterday we thought we had
him surrounded.
The posse found footprints
around berry bushes at an aban-
doned ranch in the middle of the
island. The bandit had eaten
heartily of ripe berries and had
uuenched his thirst at a well OF
pure water.
Fevered with excitement and
added zest for the chase, our
posse started to encircle the coun-
| try around the ranch. Footprints
! lead off into the thickets. Some
of the men followed then for a
mile or more. Then they came to
stream. Apparently the ban
dit was willy enough to fear blood
hounds. and he never left the
stream-at least, as far as our
posse could discover.
We searched for a mile above
and below the place where his
tracks led down to the edge of the
shallow creek, but found no place
where he had emerged.
1t was critical moment, and
leaders in the chase sat down ex-
hausted. Their interest had been
at top pitch through the chase, so
close had we been behind the des-
perado. Rifles were carried at
the hips, for instant shooting, but
instead of the expected fussilade
of shots, the trail disappeared and
we we're left in the dark as COM
pletely as before.
The island is completely sur
rounded.
Our bandit Is as well as cap
tured. It seems impossible that
he can leave the island. And IL
he cannot leave, he most surely
will be caught in the dragnet that
tomorrow will converge in a great
circle to the very center of Shaw
island.

A dozen officers of the national
chamber of commerce arrived in
Tacoma at o'clock this morning
were shown the city in antOmo-
biles, bangueted at the CONNER
cial club, toasted and they will
leave for Seattle by boat at 3
o'clock this afternoon.
The purpose of the trip through
the West as stated by President
Harry A. Wheeler of Chicago, is
to gather in the West in hearty
a.2iliation with the national move
ment.
I'VE want a national organiza-
tion that will represent American
business and that can speak to
congress for business. We have
$50 organizations now affiliated
representing 250,000 business
men. When any question comes
up we will take a referendum and
submit the result to congress and
the president, and that will be the
word of business. Just as we did
recently when We presented our
petition demanding that in future
legislation the tariff shall be ad-
justed by a scientific tariff COM

oughly. In San Francisco, in
Portland and here we have con-
sidered the matter. I believe We
have gotten pretty good idea
of the real situation. I do not
thing 1t is a simple matter of
union labor and open shop. I
think it will be found that the
millnen of California are in it
too and there is combination be-
tween the two elements against
certain kinds of finished lumber
for those mills down there want
the business themselves.
"But We have not been able to
find any place where we can get
action in our body on the case.
Our bylaws are such as to prevent
us acting. OF course on the gen.
eral proposition of boycott of any
kind our association would prob
ably be unanimous against it but
this is a question involving three
states and the combination and it
LOOKS to me like a case for Mr..
McReynolds.
"Of course people do not like
to get into court and call forth a
judicial decree sometimes II a So
luton can be found any other way
but we have been unable to find
any solution for the problem"
Mr.. Wheeler says this question
has been gone into at great length
and his opinion probably indicates
that no assistance can come from
the national chamber of COM
merce to force Puget Sound fin
ished lumber into Frisco.
Unron Tabor claims that there is
really no boycott, that the only
trouble is that Puget Sound mills
operate on the open shop plan
and that the mills of Frisco are
union and the men refuse to ham
die the product of non-union
mills.
