Recognized Prisoners Voice.

Seven years ago Dave Fuller Dep
uty U. S marshal who was then To-
Gated in Council, Alaska, arrested
man for a felony and, after keeping
him four months, sent him to NC
Neirs Island for a thirteen months
term. That man had a bad lisp when
talking, This morning while sitting
in Sheriff Taylor's office Fuller heard
one of the prisoners speaking inside
the iail and he lisped badly. Il know
that man." he said and looked in.
'Didn't | arrest you in Council, Alas
ka. in 1902" he asked the man. NO
thir." was the answer. you're a
liar" said the officer, II did. Don't
YOU remember Dave Fuller" Yes
thir. but you ainth Dave Trwuller."
"You bet am" rejoined the custodian
of the law and then the man admit
ted his identity. He gave his name
here as Joseph Woodward and Is the
man who passed the bad check on
The Peoples Warehouse. The local Of
| ficers were unable to decide whether
he is a criminal or mentally unbal'
anced and Fuller's recognition cleared
up the matter. Fuller declares h'
lived for nine months in Nome ant
Council without working. "And i
takes pretty clever crook to do that

WARRANTS SERVED UPON
men RECENTLY INDICTED

To serve bench warrants upon VIII
lard Brown, charged with sending OBJ
scene literature through the mail, and

ing liquor to Indians, L. S. Deputy
Marshal Dave Fuller was in Umatilla
county yesterday and today Brown

bonds. he was released. Mokeave was
was taken to Portland on No. II.
Both were indicted at the recent term
of the federal grand jury in Portland.
Brown is accused of sending letters
of an obscene nature to Mrs. Bar
ber in Columbus, Ohio, but the woman
is not his accuser. 1t is her husband,
| From the story told of the affair, il
seems that Brown and his wife have
had friction with the result that the
former transferred his affections to
Mrs. Barber and kept up cores
! pondence with her. Mrs Barber anG
her husband were not on very affec-
tionate terms either and the latter, il
search for evidence upon which t
base divorce suit, came across som,
of Browns letters and turned then
over to the postal authorities. Tn,
indictment followed.
Mokeave's offense is the same fo
which he recently did 45 days in tn,
city jail. He is charged with sellin,
liquor to Anderson Shippentower an,
Isaac Wax Wax, two Indians. Ship
pentower, it will be remembered, al
most killed his wife while under tn
influence of the liquor.

AMERICAN YARDS
CAN SUPPLY SHIPS
Within Years Time Could be Able
to- Turn Out Million i'm
Gross Tonnage.

NEW YORK, Aug. Shipbuild-
could turn out within one year from
the start Of the hostilities in Europe
more than 100000 gross tonnage in
vessels that could be used in trans
Atlantic service. according to a state
ment given out yesterday at the offices
Of the American beau OF shipping
This would be approximately one-half
Of the total tonnage in which financial
interests in this country hold stocF
in foreign countries.
Reports received from all the ship
constructing plants on the Atlantic
seaboard show that nearly 100 aver
age sized ocean going steamships
could he built In the yards stretching
from Maine to Virginia They could
be completed within II months from
the time OF making contract and
would give such an impetus TO Amer
lean shipping as never has been
known.
Many concerns on the Atlantic sea-
board have a capacity for ships of 2 =
600 gross tonnage, irrespective of the
work on the immense war vessels in
the different yards. A great network
of shipbuilding concerns lies from
New England TO the Virginia shores.
and some of them have produced the
largest commercial steamships that
have been constructed in this coun-
try. notably the Dakota and the Min
nesota, each of 2Q,71S gross tons.
which were designed for the Great
Northern Steamship company, owned
by James ] Hill.

PRICES ON SILKS
MAY BE BOOSTED
Dealers Declare That Supply of Raw
Material Will be En-
hauSted Soon.

NEW YORK. Aug. 12.-Dyed silk
goods probably will increase consider
ably in price because of the war. ac-
cording to manufacturers in Paterson,
y. j.. centre of the silk manufacturing
trade. These dealers declare the sup
ply of raw silk for manufacture now
in hand will keep mills running from
six weeks to two months, and that if
new supplies are not found by that
time the industry will be hard hit.
Olav Berg of the ImhOff- Berg Silk
Dyeing company, said:-"Silk dyeing
stuffs come for the most part from
Germany. Potato starch ordinarily
costs three or four cents a pound, and
is now costing IL cents and is hard to
get. The same is true of bichlOride of
tin. which comes from India"
John Grossgebauer. vice president
of the Columbia Ribbon company
Spot sils-that is the supply ready
for markets. high. but the silk for
future delivery Is not high. There is
no great shortage on the raw material
now, but the dyeing materials have
jumped three or four times in price"
julius Brandes said:-'We are not
laying off men. Our supply will last
nearly two months and we shall keep
going with full force. Our raw ma
terial comes partly from Japan"
Frank Frost said:-''The raw ma
terial from Japan usually is shipped
through the Suez canal and by Ger
man ships. Ii may now be necessary
to ship across the Pacific and there
are only three companies which ham
die silk material on that route. We
have enough raw silk to last about
eight weeks"

Ranch Wild West show. last night.
"Nine-tenths OF all the musicians in
this country are Europeans and the
majority OF them are reservists and
have been called upon to return to
their respective countries and join the
colors. Nothing but their inability to
secure safe passage across the ocean
prevents them from leaving.
In the l0i Ranch Wild West con
cert band there are 50 musicians. The
leader IS an Italian and probably a
third OF the players are Italians
Among the others are Belgians. Ger
mans, two Russians, a Pole and three
Austrians. More than half of them
are reservists. and the chances are
that within a short time they Will have
10 he replaced in the band. This.
however. is more serious thing than
many people realize. There is scarce
~ a strictly American band in the
United States outside OF the small
cities and usually these musicians
have other employment and simply
play in the town band for pleasure or
to earn "A little extra money. Even
the marine band in Washington. en-
ployed by the United States govern
ment. is composed = of foreign mu-
sicians, and this is the case with the
majority of the Fegimental bands.
However. South Bend people, who
will be given an opportunity TO see
the 101 Ranch Wild West show on
Thursday, August 20, need not be
afraid OF attending a show without
music. No matter what happens mu-
sicians will be found to complete the
band, although under the circum-
stances il will be a difficult task, not
only for the 1O1 Ranch show. but also
for all the big circUses which are in
the same predicament. incidentally.
the performances given by the 1o1
Ranch show this year are credited
with being superior to anything ever
before given by this typical eXhibie
ton"

NEW HAVEN AGREES
TO SELL HOLDINGS
Accepts Sitter Terms Than the Ones
Originally Laid Before
Directors.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Directors
Of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad Tuesday capitulated
to the government
AS a result the civil suit for the
breaking up of the system, for the di-
VOrce of the Boston and Maine and
for the giving up of the steamship and
trolley lines will not be brought to
trial. There will. instead, be a
peaceful dissolution"
The capitulation was so complete
that the directors assented to sitter
terms than those that had originally
been laid down by Atty. Gen. Nc
Reynolds. Refusal to accept these
terms on July forced the filing of
the suit, which was on so broad a
basis and carried such sweeping
charges of violation of the law that
Tuesdays development began at once
to be looked forward to.
Notwithstanding the agreement that
will bring. the civil suit to an end
it was announced in Washington
Tuesday night that the criminal pros
ecution Of directors responsible for
the misdeeds committed in the name
Of the New Haven will not be affected.
A federal grand jury sitting in this
city will get these cases early next
month.
No great detail was contained in the
announcement of an agreement made
by the New Haven in this city At
the conclusion of the meeting a state
ment was issued stating that the sur
render having been accepted by the

LITTLE IMPORTANT
NEWS is GIVEN OUT
Movement of British Troops is Kept
Secret-Think Eeee Still
Holds Out.

LONDON. Aug. u. - The official
press bureau announces at this period
no news of hostilities Of any import
ance can be expected. Movements Of
the British army or those of coop
Grating nations cannot be diVulged
and over the proceedings Of the
enemy lies the fog OF war There is
good reason TO believe that the mass
OF German troops on western frontier
are distributed between Thonville and
Liege and that Lorraine is held COM
paratively lightly Further TO the
south there is every indication that
Austrian troops have entered Alsace.
IL is believed that the forts of Liege

The direct causes of the war were

folly OF the Austrian foreign minister.
Count Berchtold. in refusing to negO-

the districts Of Kieff, Odessa. Mos

Bethmann-HOllweg, in his zeal for

imperative language to resume nego-

Germany would not desert her.

started direct negotiations with st.

This alone proves that Kaiser Will
