JAILED IN WEST,
ARE WANTED HERE
Men Arrested in indianapolis
Charged With Auto Thefts
in Newark.

Word was received by Police Chief
Long today that John and George
Williamson, who are charged with de-
frauding three automobile concerns in
this city, had been taken into custody
by the police of Indianapolis, Ind.
The men who were arrested are said
to be members of group of five who
bought auto trucks from dealers In
this city. depositing a part of the
purchase price and giving notes for
the rest AS soon as they obtained
possession of the trucks, 1t is asserted.
they carried them out of the State,
and when the notes came due they
went to protest, and neither the men
nor the trucks could be found.
Five trucks, the police say, are
known to have been bought by the
men, who represented themselves
variously as John, George. James and
william Williamson. There appears
to have been two men who called
themselves John Williamson.
According to Edmund G. Lang
horne, president and treasurer of the
White Company. one three-quarter-
ton truck was bought from him Sep
TENDER 8. One truck was obtained
from the r. & L. Company and three
from the Overland Company In each
instance the same scheme was pur-
sued, and on the night of September
5 the Ave trucks were taken in pro-
cession down Frelinghuysen avenue
There all trace of them was lost.
The present complaint against the
men Is that of obtaining property
under false pretenses. AS soon as the
necessary papers are made out Chiel
Long will send men to indianapolis
for the prisoners.

contributed largely to the German
successes, but that as offensive
weapons the Zeppelins are far
superior.
Tie German aeroplanes carry twelve
one and four-pound bombs hung in
racks on the sides of the machine.

Until the primer" or contact" is

smash-up of the aeroplane would not

pelin artillery, as explained to me,
consists of bombs or shells from
twenty-four to thirty-six inches in
length and about ten inches in
diameter. They are filled with a high

of the Zeppelin which terrorized Ant

Washington, July 9-Despite a

100000 bushels, the largest on record,
no hope is held out by the department
of agriculture for greatly reduced
prices. Such a large crop would augur
very low prices, according to a state
ment today, were 1t not that the
worlds crops of wheat and competing
grains do not promise more than the
average of recent years. Besides more
than the usual diversion of wheat
from it's use as food for men to the
use as feed for livestock may be ex-
pected because of the present relative
ly short supply of corn in sections
where there is a promise of abundant
wheat.
With corn selling in Kansas for about
seven cents more per bushel than
wheat it is not surprising, officials
say. that much wheat should be con-
sumed as feed by animals Kansas
