BURIAL PLACE OF KING JOHN
Writer Dsc.ares Interment ot. Famous English Monarch Took Place
 at Worcester.

Tn the American Law Review there appeared an article in which the writer made an allusion to King ,sohn of England, and said he went "to his unlamented rest at St. Wolstan S. Y" Now, is this correct? King John was buried at Worcester and in the ca thedral there, and his body has slept in that spot until now, unless, like a streak of morning cloud, it has melted into the infinite azure of the past. In 1797, for the purpose of identifying the resting place of the king and his remains, a committee of citizens was appointed to investigate this matter. The body was identified and all that remained of it placed in a new mau- soleum, where it stands today as one of the objects of interest in Worces- ter cathedral. Shakespeare, in his King John," puts in the mouth of Prince Henry the following words: "At Worcester must his body be in- tered, for so he willed it." Thus we see King John was buried in Worces- ter cathedral, and it is therefore inac- curate to say he was buried at St. Vol stans. The memory of King John is not cherished with the feeling that has followed the lives and deaths of some of England's sovereigns, and he will be remembered only as the monarch from whom was extorted the great charter of English liberty, from which this country has received large part of its valued nheritance.-Letter to St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

 The fifth car of strawberries for the season is being loaded at Conway today and will be shipped out by fast freight tonight.

 A car loaded with AS crates was shipped last night. The price drop ped little yesterday, but $1.75 per crate is being realized from the car. Previous shipments had averaged about $2 per crate.

MEXICAN BULLETS GROSS THE BORDER tration of Troops-snipers Still
 At Work.

NACO, Dec. 19.-The bullets still continue to cross the border in spite of the protests of the American State department and the military officers stationed along the border. The snip ing from the Mexican side is delib- crate and is done whenever an American appears near the border in view of the Mexican trenches. Both the Villaites and the Carranzaites ap- pear to take pleasure in shooting at people on the American side It is reported here that the losses to Amer jeans have been greater than the losses in both armies engaged about Naco.
 A conference is being held today between the American and Mexican military men and it is hoped that settlement of the trouble can be ar. ranged and the Mexican troops so placed as to make it impossible for them to shoot across the line.
 The new troops sent here have taken up positions back from the bor- der, but are in constant readiness to cross the line if the order is given.

LONDON, Dec. 19.-The Russian general staff is pouring several hun dred thousand more troops through Warsaw to meet the Germans. The kaiser's army is also strongly rein forced. The reports from Petrograd indicate that the battle will be won by the side which can concentrate the greatest number of troops in the shortest time. The inexhaustible SUD- ply of Russians should give the ad- vantage to the czar's forces.
 German Victory Doubted.
 The reports from Berlin of a vic- tory for the German troops in north Poland are not believed here as no details are given out by the Germans nor is the place where the victory was won told in the dispatches. One report indicates the victory was won in north Poland, others that the bat tie was fought in southwest Poland.

been captured is not believed by na- val men. Investigation of the source of the report has been made by news paper men and it has been found the story is supposed to have been sent here by wireless from British cruis- CT. The British consul states that he has no word of the capture or destruction of the Dresden.
 Many German Ships Still Free.
 It is reliably reported that the Ger man fleet engaged off the Falkland Islands consisted of nine vessels and that the German battleship Won der Tam, a 28-knot boat, heavily arm- ed, and the Strassburg, Dresden and Karlsruhe, are still roaming the seas, besides a dozen converted cruisers. The British have the Invincible, 28- battleship, the 1ndomitable and In- flexible with the South Pacific fleet.

MUST
 PAY INCOME TAX Revenue Commissioner Says Women Must Pay-Women Insist Men
 Must Pay Tax

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The In- ternal Revenue Collector today decid- ed that women who receive alimony must pay an income tax upon any in- come so received. Many women have objected to paying the tax, claiming that the courts had decided they were to receive a certain sum and that the husband must pay the tax. The collector, however, insists that the income of the women from any source must pay the income tax.
 It is expected that a number of women receiving big alimony will at tempt to have the courts reverse the ruling of the commissioner and force the men to pay the income tax or be in contempt of court.

Ambulance Members Held.

PARIS, Dec. 19.-The French gov ernment has protested to Berlin through the Spanish ambassador that the Germans are detaining as pris- oners of war members of the French ambulance, instead of sending them back to their army in accordance with the rules of the Geneva con- vention. A similar protest has been made by +' e International Red Cross Committee. The French government at the same time advised the Ameri- can ambassador, who is charged with German interests in France, that members of German ambulances would be detained until satisfaction was received. Although there has been no reply to the protest as yet, a number of those serving in French ambulances have been released since the protest was filed.

The defeat of yesterday in north Po- land will force the czar's officers to make a hasty retreat or be cut off from their base of supplies. The vic tory at Piotrkowz gives the Austro- German forces the control of the rail- road line from Warsaw to the Rus sian left wing.

RAILROAD STOCKS
 TAKE A JUMP ? Interstate Commerce Commissions p-rn,ission To Raise Rates Five
 Per Cent. Boosts Stock.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-The stock of all railroads jumped upward sever al points yesterday when the Inter- state Commerce Commission amour 'ced that the rates on freight ship ments could be raised five per cent. Considerable trading resulted. h. vestors have refused to buy railroad stocks the past few years because of the attitude of the public and the rate regulators towards the roads and the refusal to allow the compan- ies to charge enough to more than meet operating expenses. The change in policy resulted in yesterdays heavy buying, and the purchases continued today.
 It is predicted that foreign owners of stock will endeavor to unload on the upward market and the board of governors heretofore opposed to heavy sales will allow them provid- ed the market remains firm.
