MEN MANUFACTURED TO VOTE
Clerk Testifies, at Trial of Terre
Haute Officials, He "Made
Up Men,"

Indianapolis, March 12.-Alleged
manufacture" of men to vote in the
election of Nov. 3, 1914, at Terre
Haute, Ind, was described by govern
ment witnesses at the trial of twenty
eight Terre Haute men charged with
conspiracy to corrupt the election.
Walter Cordes, who said he was ap-
pointed clerk in the city engineers Of
fee by Mayor Don M. Roberts of Terre
Haute, testified that in making out
registration applications he made up
men out of my imagination, giving
them name, age, and place of birth !"
He added when he could not think
of names he took city directory and
joined Christian names obtained from
the front of the book with surnames
taken from the back pages. He made
out several hundred applications, he
said, and so far as he knew, not one
of them was fora real man.
Henry Forbeck, another employee of
the city engineers office said he
manufactured" about 200 voters in
the same manner.

FARMERS NOT HOLDING GRAIN
WHEAT IN MILLS AMOUNTS TO
100000 BUSHELS.
Department of Agriculture Makes
Estimate Showing 152,903,000
Bushels on Farms.

Washington, March 13.-Wheat held
in country mills and elevators on
March 1 amounted to S6,000,000 bush
els, the department of agriculture has
estimated, compared with 94,000,000
bushels ON year ago, and 11S,000,000
In 1913.
The estimate was supplemental to
the recent department report showing
52,903,0 900 bushels of wheat remaining
on farms March l. 1t was interpreted
by department officials as indicating
that farmers have not been holding
their grain.
The wheat still in country mills and
elevators represents 81 per cent of
the 1914 crop, compared with 1928 per
cent one year ago. This usually is
computed as a part of the supply on
farms and is exclusive of what is
known as visible supply"
The number of bushels estimated
for the important producing states are
as follows:
Stocks held by country mills and
elevators: Pennsylvania, 100000;
Ohio, 4,O19,OO0; Indiana, 5,189,0OO; H.
linois, 100000; Michigan, 2,07S,O0O;
4,298,OOO; Missouri, $780,

Dakota, 4,1O4,000; Nebraska, 4,OS7, 900;

CHICAGO DRUG USERS
IN A PITIFUL PLIGHT

Chicago, March 12-Thirty thou
sand persons in Chicago are addicted
to habit-forming drugs, which under
a new federal statute they probably
cannot get, a gathering of physicians
was told here by DR.. w. A. Evans, for
mer city commissioner of health. The
doctors representing state, county and
city governments and medical socie-
ties, met to determine what could be
done for the drug users, whose condi-
ton has been depicted as pitiful. DR..
George A. Zeller, state alienist, said
IS per cent of the drug users would
cure themselves when deprived of mar
cotics. DR.. T. A Hogan, physician at
the Cook county Jail, disputed this, as
did others. ALI available room in
public institutions is occupied by pa
TENTS seeking to be cured, it was
brought out and the meeting decided
to ask aid from private institutions.

LAWYER IN HUNTER CASE
is ACCUSED BY WITNESS

Minneapolis, March 12.-Pointblank
charges made in open court that Frank
d. Larrabee, attorney for DR.. Charles
Hunter, on trial in district court be-
fore Judge Jelley, had attempted to in
duce Arthur Liesch, principal witness
for the state, to testify falsely in the
case, and Mr.. Larrabee's vehement
denial of the accusations, furnished a
sensation in the Hunter trial here.
Throughout most of the morning
session Mr.. Larrabee objected to
Liesch's testimony regarding CONVEX
sations with Lena RUNNERS on the
occasions when, he said, he accom-
panied her to Doctor Hunters office.
In the afternoon Judge Jelley over
ruled Mr.. Larrabee's objection and
Liesch told of his talks with the girl.

GERMAN UNDERWATER CRAFT

OFF SCARBOROUGH, HAST

ONLY ONE MAN OF CREW

Destruction of Steamers Indicates Ger
man Submarines Are Raiding
at Widely Separated Points
Around British lsles-Three
Sunk in Nine Hours.

| London, March 11.-The Daily TeIe-
graphs Paris correspondent says he
learns that Dr.. Won Bethmann-H oil
veg, the German imperial chancellor,
will make a statement in the reich
stag setting forth the terms on which
Germany is willing to make peace.
London, March 11.-An official an
nouncement just issued shows that
German submarines sank three British
steamships. The statement follows:
The steamer Tangistan was sunk
by German submarine off Scarbor-
ough. Only one man of her crew of
80 men was saved.
- lhe steamer Blackwood was sunk
by a submarine, without warning, off
Hastings. Her crew of II was saved.
The steamer Princess Royal of
Glasgow was sunk without warning
by German submarine off Liverpool.
Her crew of "a was saved"
Sunk by Different Boats.
The torpedoing of the British steam
ers Tangistan, Blackwood and Prin-
cess Royal - the two former cargo
boats and the latter once a coastwise
passenger ship-indicates that Ger
man submarines again are raiding at
widely separated points around the
British Isles. AS each of the boats
was torpedoed in a period of less than
nine hours, it would seem probable
that all three were sunk by different
underwater boats.
Scarborough, off which port the
Tangistan was sunk, is on the North
Sea in Yorkshire; Hastings is on the
English channel in Sussex, and Liver
pool is on the Irish Sea.
The Tangistan, the largest of the
sunken vessels, was of 1898 tons dis
placement. She was built in 1906 and
owned by the Strick line of Swansea.
The Blackwood was built in 1907
and belonged to the Tyneside line of
North Shields. She was a TAI ton
vessel.

BELIEVED TO DEMAND PASSAGE
OF AMERICANS BY RAIL
FROM MEXICO CITY
TO VERA CRUZ.
TRAINS SHOULD CARRY
SUPPLIES INTO CAPITAL
Secretary Bryan Directs Inquiry to Be
Made Concerning Report That
Four Spaniards Had Been
kiIIed-Warships to Be
Kept at Vera Cruz.

Washington, March 13.-Anothel
note has been sent by the United
| States government to General Car
rama in reply to his response to the
| notice that Carranza and Obregon
| would be held personally responsible
| for the safety of Americans and other
foreigners in Mexico City.
The second communication was dis
patched SO quickly after the receipt
sion prevailed in diplomatic quarters
that the United States had determined
in advance to make representations
for the unrestricted passage of Ameri-
cans and other foreigners from Mexico
City to Vera Cruz.
Trains Should Be Furnished.
Carranza's note produced no formal
comment. Insofar as it gave assur-
ances of an intention to protect for
eigners and their interests, it was re-
garded favorably. Carranza's denial
that General Obregon had intended to
incite the population of Mexico City to
riot or to prevent the entrance to the
capital of food supplies was followed
in the note which went forward by
request that if this were true trains
should be furnished to carry freight
into the city
No word has been received of any
change in the situation in Mexico City,
though routine messages came through
from the Brazilian minister.
Killing of Spaniards.
Secretary Bryan directed an inquiry
to be made by the Brazilian minister
concerning the report furnished by the
Spanish ambassador here that four
Spaniards had been killed in Mexico
City. 1t had been reported also, but
without confirmation, that a Swedish
subject had been killed.
On the whole, officials thought, the
Carranza note relieved critical situa-
ton, but the warships ordered to Vera |
Cruz were not recalled on the strength |
of the favorable developments and the |
opinion prevails that they will be kept |
there indefinitely.
Obregon Still in Capital.
Laredo, Texas, March IA mes
sage received here from General Pab-
10 Gonzales, Carranza commander,
said reports that General Obregon had |
evacuated Mexico City were due to
strategic movements of military trains |
On the Mexico-Vera Cruz line. The
added regular traffic between
the capital and Vera Cruz would soon
be resumed
