witness stand admitted that some Of
the methods were erroneous as re-
CARDS the cost Of maintaining passen-

however, by saying that while the
methods might be wrong, the amount
involved would be of little cOnse-

According to the exhibits offered by

turn upon their money invested.

Authorities on either side will not

Moncloya situation was acute We
could buy relief supplies on the Mex

cost 90 cents a bushel for corn on the
American side, we could get II at
Sabine ON the Moncluva line at sc
cents bushel but the military
authorities would not allow its sale,
and we had to buy at the higher
price on this side of the border. The
authorities said they needed it all for
military purposes, but at this same
time Mexico was exporting both corn
ana beans
when General Hernandez put an
embargo on the sale Of food supplies
in his territory he said he would stop
expectations of food from Mexico.
Yet he has permitted the expectation
to go on into the United States"

BUSINESS BLOCK
FOR SAND SPRINGS
Fine New Brick structure Going Up
in HuStsing New Town i'm
Tulsa's suburbs.

Plans are now being prepared for
another large brick business building
at Sand Springs, which will stand
across the street south of the new
bank building now in course Of cree
tion. 1t will be built by Dalton
brothers of Sand Springs. who were
among the first to erect a brick struc-
ture in that town three years ago.
The new building will be 50x140
feet in size, two stories high and
with full basement, and is said to al
ready be leased for a number OF
years. Both business and dwelling
buildings in Sand Springs have been
about as scarce as anything imagin-
able for the past year and a half. the
town having added almost one thou
sand persons to its population within
the last six months. Three new ad-
ditions have been laid out to the orig
inal townsite within that time, and

This seems to be the consensus of
opinion even among those in England
who heretofore have been hopeful
that the Russians would turn and de-
liver a counter-blow, and news of the

Germans amid such scenes as were

WASmNGTON July 20 Prelim-
mary reports ON Investigation by Uni-
ted States District Attorney Webster
at Detroit Mich, on the charge that
German sympathiZcrs were respOnsI-
bile for the blowing up Of govern
ucut factory across the Canadian
border were received tonight at the
department Of justice.
While the inquiry had not been
completed officials said that so far It
has not disclosed grounds on which
the United States could proceed Grim
irally against the persons alleged 10
have been implicated, since there was
uu statute To cover "a conspiracy
formed in the United States to com
mlt such an act IN Canada.
Investigation Continues
Mr., Webster has been directed 10
continue his investigation and to give
particular attention TO the question of
whether the dynamite or other eX-
plosives used was transported from
American soil
The law under which prosecution
might lie applies TO transportation of
explosives between the states and
from a foreign country to the United
States, but IL does not touch transpor-
tation from the United States to for
eign country. Mr.. Webster reported
the names of several persons alleged
TO bc connected with the plot, but the
department declined TO make them
public.
This inquiry was ordered by the de
partment of justice after the British
embassy had informed the state de-
partmeut that 1t had evidence that
money to carry out the dynamiting
plot had been furnished by a wealthy
German resident of Detroit The EN-
hassy inquired whether such case
did not constitute a violation Of neu-
trality.

that many more will have to be laid
out within a month or two, from
present indications.
Doubling the capacities Of many OF
the manufacturing establishments To-
Gated in the factory part Of Sand
Springs has been responsible for its
great growth in a large measure. The
town has also had a wonderful steady
growth, and by early fail will be
among that class of cities having a
population from three to four thou
sand persons.
