SUMMER COTTAGES BURGLARIzEp.
Wholesale Robbery Perpetrated at
Beach Near Burlington.

Burlington, Feb 20.-It 17as discov-
cred yesterday afternoon that there had
been wholesale burglary of the cot
tages at Starr Farm beach, and that a
quantity OF goods had been stolen Just
how many articles were taken or what
their value was will be ascertaincd by
a more careful inspection There is no
clue as TO the identity OF the burglars.
The looting was evidently done some
time ago as there were no tracks about
the despoiled cottages, which would in
dieate that the miscreants had done
their work before the last snowfall
Six cottages were entered in all, the
fact being discovered BY son of one
OF the owners who was out there yester-
day. As soon as the news was received.
Chief OF Police Russell with several OF

Samson cottage entraice had been
made by breaking in window but in
tie cottage named the door had been
forced. Bureau drawers had been ran
sacked. the contents of the pantry
pulled out, fishing rods were broken and

tages had been examined and left out of

MAKE ATTACK ON
ADMIRAL DEWEY
Germans in Imperial Parliament Resent
Statement Regarding Manila
Blockade.

Berlin, Germany, Feb. 20.A sharp at
tack on Admiral Dewey in regard to the
statements made by him in his autobiog-
raphy concerning the German fleet at
Manila during the Spanish American war
in 1898, was made in the Imperial Par
lament yesterday by Matthias Erzberg-
er, one of the leaders of the Clerical
party He said the statements of Ad-
miral Dewey had excited the greatest
amazement in Germany.
Admiral Won Tirpitz, German minis
ter of marine, in reply, said that he
understood Admiral Dewey would short
ly make an explanation showing that the
conduct of Admiral Won Diederich, the
German commander and his subordinates
had been absolutely correct.
The German newspapers recently have
severely criticized Admiral Dewey's book,
demanding that the German government
issue an authoritative statement regard
ing the "Manila legend"
Admiral Dewey, in relating the incl
dent in Manila bay, says it arose through
Admiral Won Diederich's disinelination to
observe the rules of the blockade estab-
lished by the Americans, one of which
insisted that neutral warships entering
the bay should report to the Americans.
The German vessel Cormoran dis
obeyed the rule and shot was fired
across her bows which had the desired
effect. Explanations followed the next
day and there was no further interfer-
ence with the blockade.

Southern California Was
Drenched by Big Rain
All Last Night
GIRLS BODY FOUND,
BEING Sd RECOVERED
Foothill Districts Of Los An
geles Are in Bad
Condition

Los Angeles, Feb. 20,-Southern Cal
ifornia was again menaced by flood con-
ditions to-day, after steady downpour
throughout the night and unless the
rain ceases by afternoon the Wander
fbilt cup race, set for tomorrow must be
postponed.
In Los Angeles proper about an inch
of rain fell during the night, but in the
foothill districts surrounding the city
the precipitation is reported as being
much heavier and apprehension is felt
for the residents of those sections. The
rainfall in Sierra Madero, fifteen miles
northeast OF here, flooded the streets
and caused much damage to orange
groves.
The San Gabriel river rose rapidly,
causing suspension of traffic on the in
terurban trolley lines running north and
northeast into Los Angeles.
The third victim of the flood was re-
ported last night with the discovery Of
the body of Miss Sue Beyille of Covina
only few hundred feet from where the
body of her cousin, Harold Stietz, was
found earlier in the day. 1t is believed
the two persisted while trying to escape
together.

weeks.
The alarm was given at l0:35 a. m.
and the fire department quickly re-
sponded to the call The fire was set in
the barn and spread so quickly that
when the firemen arrived it was impos
sible to save the structure. Through the
efforts of the fire companies, the ada
cent horse stable was saved.
The building burned was constructed
over 20 years ago. It's dimensions were
100 feet BY 40, with An ell rs feet by "A,
and a small creamery building in the
rear. The barn was remodeled several
years ago. Ii was provided with base
ment and cement floors and was capable
of accommodating 100 head of cattle.

head of cattle and about so tons Of hay.
The cattle were all saved and have been
distributed on the farms Of J.. e. Avery,

yided for them at the state institute.

where he was authorized by the trustees
to take four boys to be placed in the
United States navy. As soon as the fire
was discovered Judge Weeks was noti-
fed and arrived here on the noon train.
The inceTidiary was taken into custody,
