FATHER RICH, BUT
 BOY S \ CROOK
Son of Lewis Nixon, New York Mill
 '''aa Iionaire, is Arrested for Rob bery-Is Yale Student

NEW HAVEN. Conn, April D. Stanhope Nixon, student at Yale college and son of Lewis Nixon, former boss of Tammany hall, was arrested here today charged with rob bery.
 the arrest caused d sensation, as the boys father is wealthy and is the owner of large shipbuilding plant located at Elizabeth. N. J.
 Friends of the arrested student claim that the robbery was committed on a dare and that having been successful the boy was afraid to return the stolen property. which was found in his room. They point out the fact that the value of the articles stolen was less than the amount given each month to young Nixon by his father.
 Two attorneys from New York are, here with Nixon's father to aid the boy in his trouble.

RECORDERS
 CAUSED TROUBLE
But Judge 2. N. Brown Decides That Commissioners Neglect Does Not
 Operate Against Loeators.

CORDOVA, April 2.-Judge F. M. Brown today decided that the case of Dah Sutherland against F. w. Purdy involving number two Big Eldorado in the Chisana district should not be thrown out of court because of the failure of the recorder in the Chisa- ma district to fully record the papers giving power of attorney to G. L. Gates, who located for Purdy.
 The recorder simply made a rneIl- orahdum of the filing of the record and the plaintiffs assert that the failure of the recorder to place the paper on record left Gates. without the Authority to locate for his prin- cIple and they asked that the case be taken from the jury and that the court instruct verdict for them.
 Judge F. M. Brown, however, stat ed that the neglect of the recorder could not operate against the defend ents and ordered the case to contin- ue. The defendents expect to con- clude the examination of witnesses today and will sum up tomorrow.
 The case is expected to reach the jury about noon tomorrow.

MANY ARE HUNGRY
 NORTHERN JAPAN
MiIlnSns People in Stricken District 100000 Actually Starving
 Houses Burned for Fuel.

TOXIC. Japan, April 2.-Nearly one-tenth of the population of Japan is undergoing the worst famine that Japan has had for more than 100 years In the northeastern and north ern districts, known as Tohoku and Hokkaido, the almost entire failure of the failure of the fishing industry, has brought on the present conditions. An official report, issued by the Home Office. states that nearly 10,000,000 persons are in the famine district A conservative estimate places the number who are now in urgent need of food at 100000. Definite reports as to the number directly hit by the famine are lacking, and only estimates can be had from missionaries and press representatives who have been in the stricken districts.
 The actual loss in the rice crop in these northern districts is 23,500,0 900 bushels, valued at 5000, ,e90. accord ing to the report of the Home Office If compared with the hugecrOps of wheat in our great western states, this may seem not an overwhelming loss, but when one realizes that the Tohoku and Hokkaido districts would not equal one good-sized county. it is easy to see how quickly the population must b touched by such loss of what is their chief food.
 For the Japanese, rec not only takes the place of bread. but it makes up tnree-fourths of the bulk Of their daily food. Fish constitutes big proportion of the remaining portion. The failure of the rice crop in these districts was due chiefly to cold weather, cold ocean currents kept the fish away from their usual runs, and out at. great distances from the shores As a. result, tli~ fishing in dustry also suffered severely.
 Figuring the cost of a days sup ply of food for one person at 15 sen, or 1-2 cents goln. and figuring that 100000 daily rations are needed to keep the people of these northern dis tricts from starvation, we get the large sum of 11,5OO.000 yen. or S75O.- 900 required per day. This would be a large ameunt for even wealthy country like the United States to raise, and in Japan it is impossible. However, many people are able to exist on much less than 15 sen per day-at least they uo exist for time. And, too, not all Of the 10,000,O0G daily rations are required for charity.
 That the distress is already very real is shown by the many appeals and letters from those in the famine centres sent to the Tokio press and to charita Die organizations.
