New York, August 20.-Ten hun
drcd and cighty-two more refugees
from the European war zone, most
of them Americans, reached New
York yesterday on the Red Star
liner Finland, after an exciting voy-
age. Some of the passengers wept
for JOY when they saw the Statue of
Liberty looming up through the mist
at the gateway of New York.
The Finland left Antwerp on Au-
gust s.
On board were 252 first-class pas
sengers, 215 secoDd-class passengers,
and G15 steerage passengers. Most
of the refugees were penniless and
without baggage.
One of the most graphic stories
was brought back by James A. Pat
ter, the Chicago "wheat king" who,
with Mrs. Patten, was in Carlsbad
when the war broke out.
"The scarcity of food in Germany
is appalling. l doubt if the food
supply will hold out longer than two
months" said Mr.. Patten I'VE left

A. j. Payne, County Constable,
Came Warden of Fairfax County, and
Special Officer Of the electric railway
company, has had another position
thrust upon him, that of caretaker

follow the caretaker, who soon ar

The prisoners plead ignorance of the
law. The officers. after admonishing
the knights OF the razor, allowed
them TO depart.
