ARTISTS SLAYER
 HAS CONFESSED Japanese Declared That He Was Fore ed To Kill American Girl
 In SeIf-defense.

SALINAS, Cal, Aug. 25-George Kodani, the Japanese artist who was arrested for the murder of Mary Smith, has confessed that he killed the girl, but claims that he acted in self-defense.
 He asserts that Miss Smith became hysterical because the law prohibit ed Kodani from making her his wife. She wanted him to take her to Ja- pan, where they could be married. When he refused, he says she cried and attacked him with knife. He was forced to strike her and fearing that he had killed her attempted to conceal his crime by dropping the body over the cliff.
 The police believe that both the artists were mentally unbalanced The friends of Miss Smith, however, are indignant at the story told by Kodani. They assert that she was above reproach and that the object of the murder was robbery, and that $200 which Miss Smith had in her possession has disappeared.

TRUST COMPANY
 WANTS DAMAGES
From German Lloyd Steamship Con- pany Because Treasure Ship Fail
 ed to Roach England.

PORTLAND, Me-, Aug. 25.-The Guaranty Trust Co. of New York has filed suit against the North German Lloyd Steamship Company for $1,000,- 900 damages because of the failure of the steamer Kronprinzessin Cecilie to deliver the $10,600,00O in gold sent to London bankers by the Guaranty Trust Co. ....s ,5.. ,. f.,
 The Kronprinzessin Cecilie left New York prior to the breaking out of the hostilities between England and Germany and when the steamer was almost to the other side of the Allan tic she overheard two French steam CTS talking to each other and pre- pairing to capture the KrOnprinzessin, so the captain turned and ran for four days and nights through fogs without blowing his fog horn and with no lights burning and finally passing the English and French cruisers oil the banks reached Bar Harbor in safety.
 The officials of the steamship com. pany assert that they are not 'respon- sible because all risks are off in time of war and steamship owner and ship. per alike take equal chances, and al. so because had the German boat con- tinued on her way and entered an English harbor the steamer and gold would have been confiscated and in that event the Guaranty Trust com pany would have been the loser. They also claim that the action of the cap. tain of the boat in returning to America was justified by the circum' stances and that instead of suing the company the owners of the gold should be glad to get 1t back at all.
 The big liner has been attached by the Trust company pending the out. come of the suit. .

 RUN STEAMERS  Bill Introduced In House for Pur- chase of Vessels-Government To Retain Majority of Stock.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-The ad- ministration bill to provide for gov ernment line of steamers from the United States to Europe was intro- duced yesterday in the House by the Democratic leaders.

 Allies Are Outnumbered.
 The allies in Belgium are outnum- bered two to one in spite of the long front of the German advance and the fact that they have been forced to garrison many towns in the rear to prevent an attack from the Belgium army at Antwerp.

NOTHING TO CROSBY STORY.
Rumor That Local Man Had hbseonded
at Newton Proves Untrue.

Rumors circulated locally. 10 the eff
feet that w. Glenn Crosby. of this
city, agent for the Adams Express
Company at Newton. had absconded
with few hundred dollars e COM
pany funds, proves untrue, according
TO a story printed in the Newton News
Thursday evening.
E. F. Scott. route agent Tor the com
pany, arrived in Newton Wednesday
night and Thursday began the work
of checking Crosby's accounts. Mr..
Scott announced that the report circu-
lated in Newton. TO the effect that
Crosby had left town with $3.50 of COM
pany money. was untrue. AS far as
Mr.. Scott had been able TO find Cros
by's accounts We're all correct. Crosby
did leave Newton suddenly, and Mr..
Scott says the young man took a few
dollars with him, but the amount taken
did not exceed what was due him from
the company for salary.
II is said by the Newton paper that
Crosby's departure from Newton was
believed to have been due tC personal
reasons. He felt that his services with
the company had not been satisfactory,
and he did not want TO meet Mr.. Scott
when he made his regular visit 10 the
Newton office.
