Carson Arrives From London
and Makes Speech Urging
Revolution
MET BY ARMED GUARD
Uniformed Men With Bayonets
Fixed Hear Leader Urge UI-
ster to Prepare
By telegraph TO The Tribune.

By telegraph to The Tribune.
Belfast, Ireland, July l0.--Civil
war appears nearer today than at
any time since Ulster threw down the
gauntlet.
Sir Edward Carson was welcomed
with cheers on his arrival here. A
uniformed guard four hundred strong,
armed with rifles and bayonets
fixed, rendered military honors.
The leader brought no message
of peace from London. Instead, he
made a defiant and uncompromising
speech at the first meeting of the
Ulster Provisional Government Off
cials.
The meeting was held in secret,
but those present declared that Car
sons speech was the bugle call sum-
moning Ulster to arms.
Everybody here believes that it
will be miracle if the twelfth of
July celebrations pass without col
llsion between the Onionist and Ma
tionalist forces somewhere in the
province.
Londonderry is the chief danger
point. At today's meeting resolutions
were passed giving listers Cabinet
power to take action on their own
responsibility when it is deemed
necessary in order TO hold against
home rule government.
At the same time covonantes an
nounced their willingness and the
willingness of Ulster as a province,
to negotiate for peaceful settlement
of the difficulty in Difference to King
George, provided listers rights be
safeguarded. But they declared they
have no faith in the honor of the
British government.

He told his mother that he had
crawled into the wagon, found the

MADE INSANE BY HEAT.

Will Adams was incarcerated in the
city Jail yesterday morning, on the
charge of being mentally de-
ranged. Adams is comparative
stranger in this section Of the coun-
try, and for the past few days has
been employed as laborer ion the
County Highway improvement work
few miles West of the city.
He was working under Dennis
Scivally and James Langstron, and
on the morning of his detention his
actions were such as toccause them to
fear that he was losing his mind.
After hitching up his team, he
attempted to drive in a direction
opposite to where he was accustomed
to work. When questioned he sopke
ncoherently and in many ways show
ed symptoms of insanity.
When taken before the authorities
he appeared to be perfectly rational,
and all through the day he seemed to
be possessed Of normal mentality.
1t was concluded that he had per-
haps been temporarily deranged from
excessive heat, but that detentionwas
no longer necessary. His boarding
boss, James Mthers, came in late
in the afternoon and Adams ac-
companicd him back to the camp.

CITY JAIL WILL SOON
BE WITHOUT A BOARDER
Three BoOtleggers Now Living at
Chief Nichols Bastile Soon
To Go.

Unless some unexpected guests ar
rive, Chief Nichols will be without
a regular boarder at the Jail
after next Wednesday.
The three young men who were
convicted at the last term of the
Federal Court in this city onthe charge
Of bootlegging, will have served their
terms Wednesday morning and they
will be given their liberty.
The three of them are young men
and were brought here from the
neighborhood of Kennett. They have
endured a long siege of confinement,
having begun to serve their sentence
on April 18th, after being held a
month in this city before they were
tried.
Before they were brought here,
however, they were in the custody
of the Dunklin County authorities
and served nearly a year as county
prisoners before Uncle Sam took
hold Of them.
Chief Nichols states that they are
good boys and have never given him
any serious trouble He says that he
had tried to make TRUSTEES of them
but gave up the idea for the reason
that they were somewhat inclined
to truancy, and when they saw him
leave the station they would go also,
being careful however to return at
about the same time that he did.
They are counting the hours to
the time when the Jail doors will be
thrown open for them to walk out
into freedom, and they are emphatic
in their statements that they will
never again be guilty Of "A violation
of the law.

GUN TOTER is ARRESTED.
Patrolman Pinches lowan When Ar
tillery is Exposed.

Patrolman Becvc while making
his rounds along Main street ycster-
day morning was attracted by sus-
picious looking bulge which was
plainly visible in the hip pocket of
a late pedestrian.
A closer investigation developed the
fact that the enlargement was due to
a vicious looking automatic gun that
the stranger was carrying.
When subjected to a line of oues-
tioning, the gun toter stated that
he was "A Scientific Collector for the
University Of Iowa, and that he had
been given authority to carry con-
cealcd weapons throughout the United
States and Canada by the Mayor
Of some town in Iowa.
He was taken into custody, how
ever, and conducted to the police
station Chief Nichols was away at
the time, and the policeman with
his prisoner sought Mayor Rage.
After the Mayor had submitted
some question and the stranger had
produced satisfactory evidence as to
the nature Of his employment he
was permitted to 90, under his solemn
promise that he would put his gun
in his grip and that in the future
would not carry it concealed about
his person.

ANOTHER WOMAN
In BAILEY CASE
District Attorney Postpones
Quizz When Sleuths Say
Two Slew Woman
By telegraph to The Tribune.

By telegraph to The Tribune.
Freeport, N, Y, July 1O.-The
whole aspect Of the astounding mys-
terry in which the murder of Mrs.
Lulu Bailey is still cloaked, was
changed today when it was discov-
cred that the detectives working under
District Attorney Smith had caused
the examination of Mrs. Florence
Carman before Justice Norton to be
postponed from next Monday until
July 81.
This action was taken because
Of new and startling theory advanced
by the detectives. The new theory
on which the State depends to bring
Mrs. Carman to trial involves another
woman.
The detectives are not telling the
name of the second woman, but they
have come to the conclusion that if
Mrs. Carman killed Mrs. Bailey,
she did not shoot through the window.
They contend that if she fired the
fatal shot it was while standing in
the door leading from the pantry
into the Office of her husband,
DR.. Edward Carman, and that the
window was broken by woman
who was Mrs. Carmans accomplice.
According to District Attorney
Smith there will likely be some start
ling developments in this important
case within the next few days.

Held at Bay
By telegraph 10 The Tribune.


st. Louis, July 9.-Bandits held up
Missouri Kansas and Texas west
bound passenger train, known as the
Katy Flyer at Matson, Mo, twenty
miles west of st. Charles late tonight.
The bandits dynamited the safe
in the express ear and are believed to
have landed large sum of money.
The police of st. Charles were noti-
fed and they in turn communicated
with Allender, chief of Detectives
in st. Louis.
The outlaws compelled the engi-
neer to uncouple the mail and baggage
cars from the passenger coaches and
pull them down the tracks for a
distance of several miles. One of
them held him at bay while two
confederates entered the baggage cars
and dynamited the safe.
They also took a number of regis
tered letters which are supposed to
contain money. They ordered the
engineer to keep off the engine until
they were safely away. As soon
as they disappeared in the woods, he
boarded the locomotive and sped
back to where the coaches were
standing.
The robbery was carried out so
Systematically that the passengers
hardly knew what was going on.
As soon as the holdup was reported,
pack of bloodhounds from Marthas-
vile were sent for. They will reach
the scene of the robbery at an early
hour in the morning, and will i'm
mediately be started on the bandits

Merchant Loses $22 Through
Forged Draft Which Bank
Thought Good
WILL SEEK REVENGE
Says He Will Spend Double the
Amount He Lost to
Catch Thief

Dave Harris, proprietor of the
American Clothing Co., was victim
lied last Wednesday afternoon by a
shrewd swindler, who, under the pre-
text of purchasing some wearing APP
parel and other articles, succeeded
in passing forged bank draft upon
the unsuspecting merchant, securing
in change a sum of money amounting
to about S22O0
Mr.. Harris stated to a representa-
tive of The Tribune that the stranger
appeared at his place of business and
asked to be shown suit of clothes.
After trying on a number of gar
ments placed before him for his in
spection, the alleged crook finally
made a selection, and before finishing
his purchases, bought two shirts,
leather grip and other furnishing
goods amounting to $2S.40.
Before Offering to pay for the goods,
the stranger informed Mr.. Harris
that he was travelling and did not
carry any considerable amount of
moeny on his person, deeming it
safer to carry bank drafts.
When advised as to the amount
due for the goods purchased, bank
draft purporting to have been issued
from the Shawnee National Bank of
Oklahoma to the National Bak Of
Commerce of Kansas City for $50,
was presented for Mr.. Harris APP
proval.
Mr.. Harris stated that before ac-
cepting the draft he took it to near
by bank, where one of the employees
after making an examination of the
paper expressed himself as satisfied
as to it's genuineness. The draft
bore the date of July 2, 1914, and
the words, mot more than $50"
were perforated on its face.
After taking this precaution, Mr..
Harris states that he felt secure in
accepting the draft, and returning to
his place of business, he gave the
waiting stranger the change due him.
Before leaving the store the swindler
asked permission to allow his pur-
chases to remain until he called for
them later in the day.
He was never seen again by Mr..
Harris, and the incident had been
dismissed from his mind, until yes
terday advice was received through
the bank that the draft was forgery.
The draft was made payable to
J. McDbwles, and to satisfy any doubt
that might exist as to his identity,
the customer showed the same name
a. laundry mark stamped on the
shirt and undcrclOthcs he was wear
ing at the time, and even his hat
bore the same name stamped on the
his name engraved on the inside Of
it.
He claimed to have come from Little
Rock to this city, and stated that
he was moving picture man.
He was described by Mr.. Harris
as being about "a years of age, light
compleXioned, sandy, curly hair, and
about five feet ten inches high. He
had a number of gold teeth in front,
| and his face was rather pinched and
slender He was neat dresser,
and was convincing and quiet in
! his manner.
Mr.. Harris is determined not to
let the matter drop until the criminal
is safely in the hands of the authori-
ties and he stated that he would
spend double the amount of which
he was robbed in order to accomplish
his purpose,

There was something stimulating

They are wonderful things. these
community trees, not for their
beauty alone, but for the spirit they
arouse in the towns where they are

The Christmas tree is essentially a
