Especial Correspondence to The Tribune

Asauith spoke of the knell of Turkish

would be the fate of the Turk in Eu-

Constantinople, but so far there are
no indications that the proclamation

GERMAN-AMERICAN
SENTENCED AS SPY

Basic. Dec. 19.-The existence Of an
extensive espionage agency at Loerrach
vas shown yesterday, when James
Aeyer, Of German origin, but nat
urslized American, was charged before
The Swiss military tribunal with spy
ing on behalf of Germany and using
swiss territory for the purpose.
Meyer, who made several journeys
INTO France, left packet of documents
IN a train between Basic and Geneva,
together with some notets on the
french military disposition. When ar
rested outside of Geneva cafe il was
found that he had cut off his mustache
and otherwise disguised himself.

agency. was sentenced to eighteen
months. Meyer described himself as

in monthly installments so moderate as to be

The Panola is obtainable in the following

From strictly business standpoint The
Pianola commends itself as the most practical
of Gifts.
Unlike most other articles The Panoa is an
Investment. 1t has negotiable value similar
to that of other pianofortes of famous makes.
For many years it is a tangible asset in case

IN THE WRONG PARTY.

A MOS PINCHoT cannot read Geo. "A w. Perkins out of the Progress
 sive party without reading Theodore Roosevelt out too. Mr. Roosevelt is just as ardent believer in the protection of private monop' oly' as MT. Perkins. Mir. Roosevelt is just as ardent an advocate of the theory that the trusts are useful and sacred institutions" and that those who attack them are bent upon the destruction of all healthy industry on a large scale"
 All that Amos Pinchot need do to convince himself is to read MT. Roose, velt's messages to Congress and his public speeches since he left the White House. Perkinism is Roosevelt ism. and Rooseveltism is Perkinism The cornerstone of the Progressive structure is erected upon the princi pie of regulated monopoly.
 If Amos Pinchot stands for the de structiou of monopoly. instead of its regulation as stand Perkins and Roosevelt. the only matter with him is that he is in the wrong political party. He belongs with Woodrow VII son and the progressive Democrats and not with Theodore Roosevelt and the regulative monopolists.

THE WHARF PROPOSITION,
THE JUNEAU wharf proposition
 should be matter of accounting n.h thO nnrIInn.inr, nf Ahn rnnrA

THE JUNEAU wharf proposition
 should be a matter of accounting
 and the application of the sound business axiom that every business concern should pay reasonable inter- est on the investment in 1t. In mak. ing the rate Of wharfage the actual cost of the wharf at the present time together with such Improvements. if any. as may be required. the present income and the estimated income for the future should be taken as founda. tions from which to figure. Whether or not the wharf has made or lost money in the past, 1t has been good investment for Juneau. However, as Mir. Willis has said. the demand for municipal improvements comes from too many quarters for the city to main tain an enterprise of the magnitude Of the City Dock for the benefit of shippers without fair return on the money that is tied up in it.
 No one favors the sale or lease of the property so far as We know. At least no one has suggested the propo- sition in the city council. Juneau will retain her municipal dock. and she will continue to sell coal to her citi- zens at price that is fair to them. On the other hand. sound business princi- ples must be applied to the city's af- fairs. It would be unfair to tax a property owners to maintain q dock at loss unless to prevent monopoly as existed in the early days of that insti. tution's career. Juneau has many places to expend it's revenues where they will benefit all the citizens of the city.
 That brings us to where we began. The question is one of bookkeeping and business. and The Empire has ab- solute confidence that the city council will handle the matter in a manner that will be fair to all concerned and serve Juneau's best interest. It has shown ample capacity and disposition to meet it's responsibilities in too many instances to question it at this time.

Los Angeles Produce Market.

Los Angeles, June 3.-Most all lines
of fruit and vegetables were weak on
the produce market yesterday. The
reason assigned for this is that the
supply is increasing. Cherries, how
ever, showed much firmness, although
the quality is nothing to boast of. AS
the last of the season is approaching
the price of this fruit is expected to
soar. Telephone peas, green lima
beans, wax beans, green chilies, sum-
mer squash and cucumbers are among
the vegetables that showed weakness.
New spuds, on the other hand are
scarce, and the tendency is toward
higher prices for this vegetable.
Receipts Of produce in Los Ange-
les yesterday were: Eggs, 358 cases;
butter, $4,000 pounds; cheese, 5730
pounds; potatoes, $50 sacks; apples,
1872 boxes.
