WHITLOCK BACK,
REFUSES TO TALK
Here on Short Sick Leave and
is Not in Position to
Say a Word.

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-Gale bat
tered and storm-stained, the Hol-
land-American liner Ryndam ar
rived today from Rotterdam, three
days overdue. 1t was the worst
voyage in the ships history. The
liner ran into one gale after another
and had to fight her way through
mountain seas, piled up by terrific
head winds.
Among the passengers on board
were Brand Whitlock, United States
minister to Belgium, who has play
ed more conspicuous part in the
European war than any other
American official.
Mr.. Whitlock was asked about
the war, about conditions in Bel
GUM, about the case of Miss Edith
Cavell, the British nurse whose life
he tried to save and about numer-
GUS other things, but he refused TO
talk.
IL am here on a short sick leave
and 1 am not in a position to say
word about anything" declared Mr..
Whitlock
MY intention is to go 10 Wash
ington to make a report, then go to
Cleveland, o., to see my mother and
then visit Toledo, my home town,
getting as much rest as possible.
''I shall remain in New York over
Thanksgiving, going to Washington
from this city. 1t is my intention
to return to Belgium on the steamer
Rotterdam which sails on Dec. 2S."
Mr.. Whitlock was pale and emac-
lated. His appearance was that Of
a man who has been through a
gruelling experience.
The diplomat was met at the pier
by Dudley Field Malone, collector
of the port of New York, and the
following delegation of Toledo men:
Charles F. Milroy. mayOr-elect and
former law partner Of Mr.. Whit
lock; n. c.. Wright of the Toledo
Blade and Marshall Sheppey, a per-
sonal friend.
Mr.. Sheppey said that special re-
ception will be rendered to Mr.. Whit
lock in Toledo. Mr.. Whitlock's eff
forts in behalf of humanity in Bel
GUM has aroused the admiration of
the entire world, but he modestly
waved all words of praise aside
His friends believe, however, that
he will be personally congratulated
upon his achievements by Pres't
Wilson when he arrives in Wash
ington on Friday.

First Witness in Trial of Ham,

of Enormous Orders
For Supplies.

Capt. Boy-ed Mentioned in
Connection With COnSpir-
aCy May be Asked to
Leave United States.

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-The Ham
burg American line chartered Amer
lean steamships before there was a
declaration Of war in Europe, and
sent them to South American waters
where they supplied German war
ships, meeting them at pre-arranged
places, showing that the German
preparedness extended to every
branch of the service.
These facts were established to-
day by witnesses for the government
in the conspiracy trial of Karl
Buenz, managing director Of the
Ham burg-American Steamship Co.,
before Federal Judge Howe.
The chartered vessels carried
huge amounts of supplies and sailed
with false manifests, the government
showed.
Capt. Fritz +. Falkenberg, of the
chartered steamer Berwind, related
details of the naval battle off Trini-
dad, when the Cap. Trafalgar was
sunk by the British auxiliary cruiser
Carmania.
Witnesses Are Present.
When the trial Of Buenz and his
fellow defendants was resumed to-
day the government had marshalled
more than 40 witnesses to establish
it's contention that vast sums Of
money were used in the alleged con-
spiracy and that the German mer-
chant marine establishment in the
United States was in reality branch
of the Berlin war office.
The first witness was Nicholas
Zamborsky, connected with the
Francis II. Liggett CO. He related
that his company in August. 1914.
received orders for 1000 pounds of
butter, 1900 barrels of sauerkraut,
1000 pounds of prunes and 1900
pounds of potatoes to be delivered
to the steamships Berwind and Lor-
EMO.

IN THE DAYS OF THE
INDIANS.

During the past week, in Merrill,
the old Dan Kline home, built fifty
years ago, has been torn down. Fred
Smith let his mind loose and after
telling many interesting things about
the old home, it delved into interest
ing "reminiscences. Here is one of
them:
"When Mr.. Smiths father came to
this city, he walked from Chicago to
Merrill, years before the railroad was
built even to Berlin. Fred Smith, Jr.,
has walked to this city from Stevens
Point many times, and all the earlier
settlers have ttrekked" it to Eagle
River and the forests of the north
land
When talking today of the old set
tlement here, Mr.. Smith told an in
t. esting incident of the Indians
which occurred late one fall.
At certain times during the year
the Inofans from Tomahawk Lake,
Lac du Flambeau and all the north
ern section went to Wausau to re-
ceive their payments from the gov
ernment.
Five hundred Aboriginees were
camped near the mouth of the Prairie
river on their way to Wausau when
Miss Jennie Smith from Wausau, now
Mrs. G. S. Ashmun of Rural, called
her little flock of children into the
school room, then located on the lot
where DIR. G. G. Walsh's home stands.
On the way into the school room,
John Posey hurled heavy ock which
struck an Indian squaw Oh the fore
head, and cut deep cash. The child
rem all fled for safety for the Indians
were up the bank and after them.
Miss Smith succeeded in barring the
door, and cried out to some children
who were back of the school to run
for help, which they did.
The children came around the old
wagon road in front of where Joe
York's place now stands, and to the
trading post conducted by Joe Besaw,
Just where the Hotel Lincoln is locat-
