Lusitania Had Gun
Mounts, Says German Boy

CHICAGO. June 13.-Kurt Schoen-
fielder. jr.. the seventeen year-old boy
whofe affidavit with regard to the
Lusitania Is one Of the documents
upon which the German government is
relying to prove that the vessel was in
reality an armed auxiliary cruiser, ad-
mitted today he saw no guns of any
Kind while crossing the Atlantic on
the Lusitania last January.
I crossed the ocean on the Lusitania
last January" he said. land one Of the
sailors showed me two guns mounts
and told that guns were slowed away
in the hold. which could be mounted for
action in less than thirty minutes in
case Of an emergency. However, l did
not see the guns themselves"
The story Of Schoenfelder's journey
and the events which preceded It
were related by his father. who is en-
ployed IN a restaurant as pastry cook,
and at whose solicitation the boy made
the affidavit before the German consul
in Chicago.
The youth has been passing as a Brit
ish subject.

FRIENDS DESERT GUN
AFFIDAVIT. WITNESS
Counsel for StahI Unable to Get
BaiI-"Faked" Testimony,
Sleuth Says.

NEW. YORK. June 13.-Friends OF
Gustav stahl, indicted by the Federai
grand jury for perjury In relation TO
the affidavits he made that the Lusf-
tania was armed. are keeping closely
under cover. Harold F. Deming has
been unable to find any one to go on
his clients bail bond for $4,000.
IF 1t wasn't for the international hue
and cry about Stahrs case" said Mr..
Deming, bail probably would have
been forthcoming. 1t is difficult now
tc tell who Stahrs friends are"
Assuming that some one connected
with the German government might be
interested In Stahl's case. 1t was sus-
gested that 1t might not be difficult to
get bail from that source. Mr.. Demins
said he was brought into the case by
counsel for the Hamburg-American
line.
Mr.. Deming intimated the defense
might contend that Stahls constitu-
tional rights had been violated when he
was taken before the Federal grand
jury and made to testify to matters
which might tend to degrade him or
incrtminate him.
Stahrs counsel emphatically denied
that his client had weakened in his
story and shown any disposition to
make statement or confession. Agents
OF the Department OF Justice said that
the Government had received no intI-
nation that Stahl might make a state
ment involving others in the AFFIDAVIT
conspiracy.
William offey, superintendent of
the local office OF the Inyestieation
Bureau of the Department of Justice
asserted that his operatives had OBJ
tained positive evidence that Stahl
had never been aboard the Lusitanta.
and that his affidavit was Inspired
ana paid for by German sympathizers.
He fntimated that the trail uncoy-
cree by his agents led to the door
OF German officials.
we are convinced that Stahl faxed
the afhdavit because he had been
promised money to get evidence about
the' armament of British ships" Mr..
Sfney said. "Stahl needed the money
badly and evidently decided to put
one owe" on his employers. He got
away with 1t because the affdayits
were presented to the State Depart-
ment without efforts having been
made to verify tho statements. some
OF which are ludicrous on their face.
the whole scheme is planned as
clumsily as any that has ever been
handled by this office. No attemps
We're apparently made to cover up
clews and tracks. Arrests will fol-
low In a few days. and this office is
ready to prove at any time that
Stahrs affidavit fs untrue and the
result or conspiracy"

that IL this was true the shoulder and
especially the elbow would not have
been covered by the quilts-that In or
der to have shot himself he would
have had to raise his elbow some dis
lance from his body and when the

also called several witnesses to the
stand who have testified to the fact
that MIR. Van Horn WAS of cheerful,
happy disposition. ~
Mrs Van Horn has been a constant
attendant at court. Her special nurse,
Miss Rowland. is constantly by her
side. Her father and mother. son and
adopted daughter and her brother
Ralph occupy seats with her. The first
afternoon of the trial Mrs. Van Horn
wept repeatedly but since that time
there has been no emotion displayed.
She apparently has no more interest IN
the trial than have dozens of the au-
ditors. She is ladylike in her de-
meanor, dresses becomingly, and gives
no evidence that there is either physical
or mental weakness. She wears
veil continually and protests against
publicity.

CHARGE ADAMS WITH MURDER.
Held Under $500 Bond in Connection
With Death Of Tony Ralphus.


Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, May 1.-Witn the Van
Horn murder trial now on, with the
confessed shooting last Sunday OF
Alexander Kaslosky by Nick Jaskvich,
the former dying Immediately, the rec
ord continued yesterday by the arrest
of Jack" Adams on the charge of muir
dering Tony Ralphus. The latter died
at 2:SO Friday afternoon and half
hour later Adams was under arrest.
Later he gave bonds in the sum OF
$500 for appearance anu was re-
leased from custody. 1t is expected
that little later on the charge now
lodged against Adams will be changed
to manslaughter.
Jack Adams and a companion were
riding in an automobile IN last Tues
day evening. At about $50 in the
evening as they were near the inter-
section of Main and Miller streets, the
auto which was driven by Adams
struck and MORALLY wounded Ralphus.
Adams is a we'll known character in
this city. 1t is stated that IN rail-
road accident some years ago he lost
both of his legs. He wears cork legs
and has become so accustomed to their
use that he walks without giving in
dications that this IS SO. On the night
that Ralphus was injured Adams was
arrested and after being placed in Jail
for some time it vas thought more
safe TO take him 20 the hospital to be
treated for the drink habit. He was at
one time proprietor of the Michigan
pool hall, but several months ago had
his license revoked on account OF the
disorderly manner in which his place
was run.
