AUTOMOBILE CHARGES

Sheriff Jarrett announces that all licensed
auto-lriyers in the rent service must wear a
badge conspicuously displayed. Another reform
much more needed than this is an order requir-
ing card with the schedule of charges to be
placed in a conspicuous position in the rent cars
and the hacks How is stranger to know whe-
ther or not he is overcharged unless he knows
what the proper charge is? AS matter of fact,
the great majority of honest drivers suffer from
the exorbitant charges of few rascals who are
ready to bleed the tourists. 1t is to be hoped
that any passenger who feels that he is made to
pay too much will take the number of the car,
Investigate and if he is justified, lodge a COM
plant with the police and the Promotion Com
mittee.

GERMAN IN TROUBLE
IN MiKAD0'S DOMAIN

Especial Cable to the Nippu Jill
TOXIC, Japan, Jan. 28.-The inves-
tigation of the naval scandal here has
brought to- light the fact that the
German named Richter, who brought
forth a charge that certain officers in
the Japanese navy were receiving
commissions from a German ship
building concern, is an ex-convict and
that the documents and letters which
he had in his possession, duplicating
the names of naval officers Fukii and
Iwasaki, are forgeries. 1t is believed
now that he caused the letters to be
written with a view to b.ackmailing
the German company. Richter de
manded a large sum of money for the
letters and, upon the refusal of the
German company to pay him he
threatened to make the documents
public. He has been arrested for
the company and has
been sentenced to two years in prison.

upon "A. P. Taylor, the San Francisco

London, Nov. 6.-The press bureau
today issued the following account OF
events at the battle front as witnessed
and written by Col. Ed Swinton OF the
intelligence department of the general
staff. The recital is dated Nov. 1 and
says:
"Friday, Oct. 80: have witnes ed a
renewal of the efforts against our right
wing which were without success to
the enemy. In the center the lombard
ment was heavy. Indeed, so many
shells fell around our positions tnat
telephone wires frequently were cut.
The attack in the direction of Ypres
generally was renewed. Southeast OF
that town il was pressed in great force
and in places our line was again forced
back a short distance. But on our lett
the oncoming Germans were stopped
by our entanglements, under close
rifle fire. and after two efforts to ad-
vance, they gave way.
"On Saturday, Oct. GA most de-
ter1nined attack was made on our left
and our left center, the pressure being
especially severe against the latter
portion of our position. Part OF our
line was driven back temporarily by
the weight of metal and numbers, Due
it was almost all recovered again pc
fore night Against our center the
enemy did not advance, While against
our right they were not nearly so ac-
tive as they were farther north.
$50 far, with the assistance OF the
French, who have been cooperating ef-
fectually, we have maintained our line
and possession of Ypres, on the cap
ture of which, by the end of October,
the Germans had set their heart.
GAS may be gathered, the fighting
of the last five days has been eminent
ly soldiers battle and without exag-
geration or any undue self-congratula-
ton, it can be said that our men have
behaved splendidly in the face of heavy
odds and against the repeated on
slaughts of great masses, which were
continually replaced by fresh men and
backed up by almost continuous fire OF
immense guns. They have, by their
dogged resistance, we'll upheld tho rep
utation of our army.

GERMAN CRUISER
sunk BY MINE
EXPLOSIVE NOT LAID BY HOS
TILES-HEAViEST lNDIVID-
UAL LOSS THUS FAR.

Berlin, Nov 6.--Only the scantiest
authentic details of the sinking OF the
German cruiser Yorck are available
here. The admiralty has received from
Wilhemshafen little beyond the an
nouncement of the time and place Of
the accident and the number of men
saved.
A fuller report, it is expected, will
probably be available. Soon it is
definitely announced, however, that
the sinking was due to a German mine
and not to hostile attacks. The ship,
which was under way, presumably
swung outside of the channel through
a mine field and touched one of the
powerful German mines which made
short work Of the big cruiser.
The conduct of the crew in the mo-
ment of disaster, is described as ex-
emplary and there is much regret over
the destruction of the cruiser-the
heaviest individual loss as yet sus-
tained by the German navy.
Half of Crew Missing.
A report reaching here from Will
hemshaven shows that 266 men are
missing from the crew of the German
cruiser Yorck, which was sunk re-
Gently off the North sea coast of Ger
many as result of accidental contact
with German mine. Three hundred
and eighty-four members Of the crew
including the commander and the first
officer, were taken off by another
vessel.

FEDERAL JURY TO
PROBE NINE WAR
JUDGE DIRECTS THAT INDICT.
MENTs BE RETURNED-iN- :
JUNCTION VIOLATED.

Fort Smith, Ark, Nov. 6.--Great
crowds were on hand long before the
time for the opening for the federal
court, when the grand jury which will
investigate the recent outbreaks in the
Hartford valley coal mining regions,
was to receive it's charge from Judge
Frank Youmans. A great part of the
crowd was made up of residents of the
mining settlements, who appeared
eager to keep track of all develop
ments.
Judge Youmans lost no time in CIV
ing instructions to the jurors. After
pointing to the fact that an injunction
was issued on May 8, 1914, enjoining
the miners and all others from inter-
fering in any way with the operation
of Prairie Greek mine No. 4, owned by
the Mammoth Vein Coal Mining CO.,
he called attention to the various dis
turbances which constituted violations
of that injunction, including the out
break on July II when considerable
property was destroyed and two mine
guards alleged to have been murdered
and on October 81, when certain per.
sons under arrest were taken from the
custody of United States deputy mar
shals by armed forces.
These acts, according to the court,
constituted contempt Of court and con-
spiracy, and he instructed that indict-
ments be returned against all whom
the evidence to be presented pointed
to as guilty.
