John 7, Murray, connected with
the Indian service, was here the
past week on an official visit to the
fallon Indian day school. He is a

DEPORTED STRIKERS
REFUSE TO LAND
Ten South African Strike Leaders Stick
to Ship on Arrival at
Gravesend.

London. Feb 25.--The 10 South Afri-
can strike leaders deported by order OF
Gen. Botha yesterday refused to land
when the steamship Umgeni, which
brought them from Durham, arrived at
Gravesend. The men refused to quit
the ship until they are returned to South
Africa, unless they are taken off the
vessel forcibly.
The officers of the Umgeni had no
authority to force the deported men TO
land at Gravesend. Accordingly they
were allowed to remain aboard until the
government could be consulted. 1t wa9
probable the matter would be put up to
Colonel Secretary Harcourt.
The Umgeni, carrying the deported
strikers, left Durham Wednesday, Jan.
%. and made no calls during the 1000
mile journey to England. The deported
men were A. Watson, president of the
Federation of Trades; J. t. Balm, gem
eral secretary of the Federation of
Trades; Fl. j. Poutsma, secretary of the
Amalgamated Society of Railway and
Harbor Servants; Secretary Waterson
Of the South African Labor party;

In the February American Magazine,
Edna Ferber writes another story in her
new series OF advertising tales. The
stories are about the advent Of young
Jock McChesney into the advertising
business. The first job that Jock tackled
resulted in a failure which nearly
knocked jock off his feet. In the fol-
lowing extract from the story Bartholo-
new Berg, his boss, tells Jock why he
fell down:

SECOND TRIAL UNLIKELY.
Becker May Escape Another Ordeal or
Murder Charge.

New York, Feb 25.--Although former
Lieut.. Becker is entitled to new trial
he probably may go free without a sec
ond order, it is believed.
District Attorney Whitman believes
that under prevailing public opinion a
conviction second time will be impos-
sible. The suggestion that the four gun
men might turn states evidence is not
received as one offering any hope OF
aiding in a conviction.
Attorney Joseph Shay was jubilant
yesterday and declared he would request
the dismissal of the Indictment against
Becker.
Mrs. Becker went to Atty. Shay's office
yesterday and kissed the attorney before
the newspaper men. Her mother died
Monday.
Mrs. Becker, in statement, said her
husband is innocent and wants new
