ON WORLD SHIPPING

London. April There have been
more Greek sailors in London in
every month since the war began
than formerly in whole year.
Spanish and Italian sailors have al
so been unusually numerous.

from the Mediterranean in various
British ports shows the change in
shipping due to the war. for the car
rying that formerly went to the
Germans is now in the hands of the
neutrals. There are plenty Of Ger
man ships lying up in the southern
ports, but they fear to venture out.
Like the italian merchant marine,
the Greek consists largely of slow
steamers bought second hand from
the British. These boats come ur
laden with wines, fuit, marble and

CLOSED IN ENG,
(By Associated Press. }

London, April 1.-Two thousand
butcher shops have been closen in
England since the beginning Of the
war. The increased prices of meat,
and the effort in most households to
economize closely, has been the
cause for the decreased consumption,
which has hit the retail butcher very
hard.
Probably more meat than ever be-
fore is being imported into the
British Isles, but a large proportion
Of it goes Immediately into the
hands of the government for sup
plying the soldiers at home and
abroad. The business of the aver
age retail butcher, according to

TRIAL OF NOTED ALLEGED
BANDIT AND MURDERER

Miami. April THE trial OF
John Ashley for the murder Of a
Seminole Indian several years ago.
was commenced yesterday in the
circuit court for Dade county. There
was an attempt made to try the case
in Palm Beach county, but after sew
eral attempts the court was not able
to secure a jury. Hence the case
was transferred to Dade county.
The attempt thus far to secure a
jury in the case has proven futile,
but the impression is that a jury
will be secured today. Ashley. with
his head bandaged. is in court and
often engages in conversation with
his attorneys. The case is causing
a great deal OF attention and there
are many spectators and witnesses
from Palm Beach.
