SAN FRANCISCO, Sept, l6.-Not
guilty!
Such was the jury . verdict today in
the government specially prosecuted

believe Harris and Diggs as against
Miss Nell Barton of Sacramento who
said they sent her to Marsha Warning
ton TO get that frisky miss to swear
falsely about the cscapade of herself

The verdict completely clears Attor-
ney Harris, but leaves Diggs with his
white slavery conviction still hanging
over him.

That's why the Answer. Book was

R|OT|NG SAILORS
WILL Be PUNISHED
Daniels Orders That They Be
Given Lesson for Part in
Seattle Affair.

Washington. August 20.-Secretary
Daniels has directed the punishment
of the sailors of the Pacific reserve
fleet who participated in the destruc-
ton in the Industrial Workers OF the
World and Socialists property in Seat
tie, July 17-1S. If they can be identi-
fed. though he severely condemned the
civilians who abused tho sailors and
the American flag.
The secretary's action was based
upon report by board of investi-
cation headed by Commander Thomas
Washington. The board found that
for some time bTeore the rioting at
Seattle there had been attacks upon
the flag, the government and particu-
larry upon the army and navy in the
Pacific seaport cities by people calling
themselves members OF the Industrial
Workers of the World, and to some
extent by so-called Socialists" The
civil authorities, the report said. al
lowed speakers TO harangue crowds
and engender ill-feeling, resulting in
the attack upon the soldiers and two
sailors July II. This led to the burn
Ing and destruction OF property on
the following night
The board placed direct responsi-
bility for the action OF the crowd led
by civilians and including only a small
proportion OF enlisted men. upon the
failure OF the police force to prevent
the destruction OF property because of
their sympathy with the purposes OF
the crowd. Furthermore. the board
expressed the opinion that the rioting
was attributable to general sentiment
against the Industrial Workers of the
World. and the criticism of the press
and that the presence OF enlisted men
was made TO serve the purpose of ac-
complishing an end which the better
element of people desired and the press
encouraged.
In passing upon this report. which
was transmitted by Rear-Admiral Rey-
nolds, Secretary Daniels declared that
while the conduct OF those who de-
nounced and assaulted soldiers was
most reprehensible and deserving con-
demnation, their violent language, I'M
provoked assault on soldiers and law
lessness does not justify retaliation in
kind"
The secretary recalled his statement
In a speech In Seattle that obedience
to authorities in respect of the flag
must precede any reforms. He ex-
pressed regret that the sailors had per-
mitted themselves to forget their duty
to uphold the law which they had
sworn to uphold, and added that their
conduct In Seattle was against the ma
val regulations and couldn't be con-
doned or allowed to go without pun
ishment.
Admiral Reynolds was directed to
have the secretary's letter read on the
engaged in the affair punished in such
manner as the admiral may judge Is
adequate for the offense.
So far as known, none of the sailors
participating III the affair have been
identified.
