War is Mere Wreckage With
No Power for Good in Itself
BY David Starr Jordan.

What shall we say of the raging
tragedy Of today? We shall say that
1t is the most hateful Of all wars.
It is in it's essence civil war, splitting
In twain the best of human ciyiliza-
ton. 1t is q senseless, aimless con-
flict without hate except that which
1t has itself engendered. 1t is for the
most part the work of the saber-rat-
tiers and war traders, connived at
through their accessories in the coun.
ellis OF Europe. It is the inevitable
elimination of an accursed series or
eiunders and crimes, the balance OF
power.' the armed peace, and the
secret deals of an outward diplomacy
masking the batteries OF war under
the guise Of pledges of peace. We
shall find that the trend of events for
the last ten years has moved directly
toward this end We shall acquit no
nation of completely. Belgium alone,
OF those who suffer today, goes into
the conflict with clean hands.

JUAREZ, Mexico; Oct. 3.-Despite
the fact that the Carranza and Villa
generals agreed to formal armistice
at Zacatecas to be in effect until after
the Aguas Galleries conference Of
generals to be held October 10, to
discuss differences between General
Francisco Villa and Provisional Presi-
dent Venustiano Carranza, both sides
are preparing for further hostilities.
/ Two million rounds of ammunition
were shipped through this port today
for the use OF Villas army and other
munitions are being received in great
quantities. On the other hand Presi-
dent Carranza is enlisting and outfit
ting large bodies of recruits. Charges
were made today by both the Villa
and Carranza factions that the other
side had violated the armistice by
the military activity which is in pro-
gress between Mayonek Maytorena
troops OF the Villa faction and the
Carranza forces under Gen. Benz Hill
at Naco. Several commune atoms
have passed between Villa and Car
rama as the result of this situation.
It is feared tonight that this may re-
suit in immediate hostilities along
the Carranza-villa front and there IS
said to be possibility that the Aguas
Calientes conference will never be
held. Gen. Maclovio Herrera, the for
mer villista general, who has declar-
ed his allegiance to Carranza. has
seized a trainload of provisions and
ammunition which was enroute to Tor
reon for General Villas army. Her
rera is entrenched in the very heart o:
villista territory and Villa himself
has gone to Jiminez. where Herrera
is located. in an effort to induce him
to renounce Carranza. The execution
of Jose Bonales Sandova1 and Angus
tin Perez, agents Of Felix Diaz. by
General Villa at Jiminez, has caused
great sensation in northern Mexico.

Local Police Expected
HohI to "PuIE" One of
His Sensations Here

The one topic of conversation in
and about police circles was the end
of the career of Frank G.. Hohl, the
Harrisburg bandit, who met his Water
loo yesterday after he had robbed two
banks in Cincinnati. His end came
when his automobile crashed into a
telegraph pole, and the young bandit
was obliged to fight his pursuers. Four
bullets pierced Hollis body, two of
which made fatal wounds.
While the strongest sympathy was
expressed for the mother at 316 Court
street, whom no one blames for her
sons downfall a sigh of relief went
up on all sides when the death of
Hohl was announced. In police cir
cles. but more particularly with the
Pennsylvania Railroad police, Frank
Hohl was expected to return to Har-
risburg at any time to pull off one or
his sensational jobs. This belief was
based on letters which, it is said, have
turned up at intervals at Altoona and
in Harrisburg. Both Colonel Joseph
b. Hutchinson, of the local police de-
partment, and Captain p. l.. Barclay,
of the Pennsylvania Railroad police,
actually believed that Frank G. Hohl
would sooner or later pull off job
in Harrisburg.

Kohl Was Watched, But
Not Hounded, While Here,
Says Chief of Police

Colonel Hutchison to-day denied the
accusations made by Hohfs mother
that the boys downfall was due to
the bounding of her son by the po-
lice. Colonel Hutchison blames evil
associations for the life Hohl lead.
The Colonel said "Hohl was not want
ed in Harrisburg on any charge. There
was n reward of 81 900 offered by the
Blair county authorities, for the cap
ture of Hohl. Had Hohl turned up in
Harrisburg and his capture followed.
it would have been in accordance with
police duties" The Colonel added:
Had Frank Hohl come to Harris
burg with no charge hanging over
him and behaved himself he would
not have been molested. Hohl was
not a person to be trusted. Even if we
knew he was in the city, and no
charges were hanging over him, of
course, he would have been closely
watched-but not bounded. The po-
lice department keeps a watch on all
criminals after they have returned
from serving a sentence in a peni-
tertiary or in Jail for the protection
of the public"

Pennsy Railroad Cops
Looking For Bandit
on Robbery Charge.

The Pennsylvania Railroad police
were really keeping closer watch on
Hohl than the local police department.
It was rot because of the reward of
fercd, but some things occurred alcCg

Railroad in the way of station rob
berries that made the police believe

with the aid of one or more persons

The Pennsylvania Railroad police
say 1Iohl has been in Harrisburg
twice, since he escap ped from the Blair
county Jail. Once they are positive
that he visited his mothers home in

Police Records Show HOhl
Began Career at Age of IS

Police records on file in the local
Bertillon department credit Frank
Hohl with having started his criminal
career at the age of Is years. He
was born in Harrisburg and his early
associates were members of the ia
nous Tin Can Alley" gang, led by
Headlight" Naughton, who was
leader of one of the worst gangs of
thieves the local police departm
has ever gone up against. The gang
was finally broken up and several
members are now serving time in the
Eastern Penitentiary.
Hohl was quite young to associate
with these men, but, according to the
police, he was a great favorite. and
while for a long time none of the ~ob-
berries included Hohl, he finally was
taken in when a series of systematic
lthefts at small stores were reported to
the police from the upper end of the
city. Before Hohl took up his evil
associates he was a messenger at the
Pennsylvania Railroad Station.
Hohl was finally arrested and was
sent to the Huntington Reformatory,
Here he learned about machinery, and
on his release got work in a garage.
A series of thefts was traced to him,
land he was sent to the Eastern Peni-
itentiary, it having been found that he
was using cars from the garage on
Ithieving tours, and plunder was dis
covered under the floor of the build
ling when he was arrested.
After his release from the peniten-
tiary on parole, Hohl is supposed to
have been involved in robberies in
nearby towns, and is known to have
stolen several automobiles. After q
robbery at the Union Bank, at Altoona,
he was arrested, but escaped from
Jail at Hollidaysburg. Since that time
he has been heard of in HON estead
Chicago and Indianapolis, and his
, mothers home has been constantly
under watch by police.
