GUILTY OF CRIME.
British Press Declares Berlin Claim
of Retaliation Is Intended
to Mislead,

London, Observation-Disclosures by
some agent of a hostile force" was
the jury's verdict at the inquest into
the deaths of Henry Good and his
wife, Caroline, two of the victims of
the first Zeppelin raid on London.
The jury found that the Goods died
from suffocation and burns they suf-
fered when an incendiary bomb,
hurled from a Zeppelin, fired their
house.
The London newspapers warned the
public not tobe misled by the Ber-
lin official statement that the raid on
London was in retaliation for an
aerial attack by French aviators on
German ammunition factories at Lud-
wigshaven.
This is not retaliatory episode,
but a goal toward which Germany has
been feeling her way for months
past" said the Daily News. 1.-THE at
lacks on the coast have been prelimi-
nary to an attack on London, and the
late raid is probably only. the pre-
cursor of more serious adventures in
the future"

Southern Is Surveyor.

Southern Is Surveyor.
Many opinions were delivered by
the supreme court in banc and by d.
vision No. 1. In the court in banc an
opinion by Judge Henry w. Bond, con-
Cured in by all of the judges, sustains
the right of the governor to fill by ap-
pointment the vacancy in the office of
county surveyor of Jackson county.
The court holds that Judge Allen G.
Southern, who was appointed county
surveyor by Gov. Major last January,
is not only entitled to that office, but,
by virtue of the special act applying
only to Jackson county, is ex officio
county highway engineer.
The option dismisses the quo war
ranto of the Encouragement as to
Southern, but sustains it as to Oliver
c. Shelley, who was made highway en-
gineer by the Jackson county court,
and orders that a writ Of custer to
pry him out of office be issued. This
deprives Shelley of the office.

Washington, D. C-The belief
was growing that the United States
will not do business with any of the
Mexican factions.
Carranza's attitude was interpreted
as meaning he claimed to be the Mex
lean government. Gen. Villa seemed
disposed to accept President Wilson's
terms only on the basis OF American
recognition of a government which
will keep him in the army. Gen. Ia
pata apparently was sullenly defiant.
Enrique C. Lorente, Gen. Villas per-
sonal representative in Washington,
said:
Gen. Villa will certainly give the
most serious, attentive and practical
consideration to, any friendly sugges-
ton that reaches him from President
Wilson, whose unselfishness of pur-
pose he we'll understands, and fully
appreciates"
Elizo Arrendondo, Gen. Carranza's
representative, issued a statement in
part, as follows:
Sees Humanitarian Spirit.
81 believe President Wilson's note
is largely due to the lack of relations
between the government of the Unit
ed States and the constitutionalist
government of Mexico.
1.-THE note seems to be suggested by
Humanitarian spirit and Mr.. Car
rama, in anticipation of such senti-
ments, decreed just three or four
days ago the entry of foodstuffs into
Mexico City even at the risk
of extending this assistance to his
( enemies"
Villas representatives here went on
record in a hurry as saying Villa
would meet the presidents wishes
That was accepted as characteristic
