For three days and three nights Ed

cut against force of twenty-five
deputies seeking to arrest him for the
shooting of County Overseer Of the
Poor Putnam, and to save his nine
children from starvation. With breast
works of snow thrown up about tho
Beardsley cabin, the siege was con-
tinued today with Beardsley vowing
that he would never surrender and
Sheriff Anderson determined not to
leave the place until he Is able to
take his man with him.
Hundreds of sight seers from May
vile visited the scene of the siege
today. AS they passed along the
road by the house the cries of the
children begging for food could be
family heard Only thin, wavering
line of smoke came from the single
chimney of the house. indicating that
the smallest kind of fire was serving
to warm them. Sheriff Anderson has
ordered his men not to fire on the
barricaded house for fear Of wound
ing some Of the children. A close
watch was kept on the house today as
the officials are beginning to fear
! that in his desperation, Beardsley may
wipe out his entire family and kill
himself rather than give up Only IN

son said today. In that event every

A ruse to draw Beardsley out OF
the house failed today and the siege
dropped back to steady watch. Hot
,, food and drink is now being furnished
the deputies who are divided into
squads and are relieved hourly in the
guarding OF the house.
'T do not believe it worth while to
risk the lives of children and the
!lives of my deputies in an attempt to
storm Beardsley's fort" said Ander-
son. There is no chance for him to
escape. We will starve him out
When Putnam visited the house

pokes his long rifle from window and
will permit none Of the passersby to

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.- Plans
have been completed for the govern
ment of the canal zone. All that is
required to put them into operat on
is an executive order b. President
Wilson This order, 1t was learned
today. is in course OF preparation and
will be issued in the very near future.
The plan, it is understood, con-
templates:
Designation of Colonel George w.
Goethals, builder Of the canal as its
first governor, with plenary powers.
Designation of Colonel S. F. Hodges
now assistant chief engineer; Lieuten-
ant Colonel VIM l.. Sbert. division
engincer of the Atlantic division;
Civil Engineer H. H. Rosseau, of the
navy, now assistant to Colonel Goeth-
ais. and Richard L. Metcalf, now head
of thu civil administration as COM
mittee to have charge under the con-
gressional enabling act OF the plans
for the formal opening of the canal
On January 15, 1915.
The latter committee will have no
powers over the actual operation Of
the canal or administration of the
zone and will automatically go out OF
Office. as soon as the canal is formal
ly opened.
The outcome is sweeping victory
for Colensl Goethals From the start
he has insisted that he. as the man
who made the canal possible. should
select the men to operate It. The
other army aud navy officers who go
on the opening board wan,ed equal
recognition with Goethals while Met
elf who was formerly editor of the
Commoner. had suggested that com
mission form of government be put In
force. Under the plan which the pres
ident has about decided to approve
Goethals gets complete recognition
and will put the canal in operation.
1t was stated today that it will re-
qnire minimum of $500 trained men
to operate the can1l and govern the
zone. All of the men now on the
isthmus have applied for positions
under the civil governor and his chiel

are best fitted for the work This
