UNOFFICIAL ADVICES RECEIVED
IN WASHINGTON STATE THAT
THE CAPTAIN OF THE VESSEL
REFUSED TO HALT AND BE
SEARCHED BY SUBMARINE
Uncle Sam viii Be Satisfied Ii OIL
cial Dispatches Confirm This RepOr...
Vessel Carried COntraband and
Was Under Jurisdiction of British
Admiralty.
tBy Associated Fress.J

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 2.-Ten-
sion over the destruction of the
freight steamer Armenian, in which a
number of Americans lost their lives,
was relieved here this morning When
the department received unofficial re-
ports stating that the submarine was
justified in torpedoing the vessel. Ac-
cording to these dispatches, the cap
tain of the Armenian refused to allow
the German vessel to examine the
cargo and say he attempted to out
run the submarine
The vessel carried a cargo of mules
intended for use by the French army.
This cargo was contraband and the
officer of the vessel realized that his
ship was lawful prey for a German
warship. The Americans aboard, all
negroes, were aware of the danger
when they shipped as muleteers, and
were promised additional wages, pro-
vided the cargo was landed safely.
If official dispatches confirm the
unofficial news obtained this morning
the United States government will not
make complaint to Germany. 1t is
thought here that there is not the re-
motest likelihood that the sinking of
the Armenian will cause any further
complications in issues pending be-
tween the Germans and the United
States.

NEW YORK yEGG

CHAs. BECKER
(By Associated Press.l

NEW YORK, July 2.-Bridgie Web
ber, one of the confessed accomplices
in the Rosenthal murder plot, who
was granted immunity in return for
testifying against Police Lieut.. Chas.
Becker. and the four gunner executed
for actually numbering Rosenthal,
now says that Becker had nothing to
do with the murder, according to H.
T. Marshall, formerly counsel for the
witness. Marshall gave this state
ment to the Associated Press late to-
day, though the facts as stated in his
announcement had already been laid
before Governor Whitman, who is be-
ing appealed to in an effort to have
Becker's death sentence commuted to
life imprisonment.
Webber, it will be recalled, disap-
peared following the killing of Rosen-
thai, and was not located until short
ly before fGyp the Blood" White
Lewis, "Leyfty Louie, and s'Dago"
Frank" the four gunner in the con-
spiracy. were placed on trial Web
ber, through a go-betWeen arranged
with the authorities to testify against
his formel pals in return for immun-
ity against Imprisonment, and his tes-
timony, combined with that given by
Bald Jack" Rose, and Sam Scheeps,
two other members of the gang which
murdered Rosenthal, secured the con-
viction of Becker and the four 9TH
ers.
Another development in the famous
case considered favorable to the con-
demned police lieutenant is contained
in the statement that Sam Schepps,
said recently that he desired to dis
cuss the case with Governor Whitman
and that certain evidence given by him
at the trial would be in part repud-
lated.

COUNTY's CASH
SECURELY TIED
IN TREASURY
BILLS CANNOT BE PAID BECAUSE
OF TECHNICALLY.

Not dollar of Sumter county cur
rency is circulating today, nor can o
dollar be paid out of the treasury Just
yet awhile, an exasperating condition
brought about by the failure of at
taches of Gov Harris Office at the cap
itol to send forward the requisite com
mission of Treasurer ]. G. Bynum, ap-
pointed to the position of treasurer by
Judge John A. Cobb upon the death Of
the late treasurer, P. H. Williams.
And it cannot be said with any de-
gree of certainty just when Treasurer
Bynum will receive his commission
and attendant authority to pay bills
already presented
Under the law no one here has legal
authority to pay out any county funds
until the commission of the treasurer
is duly signed and issued by Gov.
Harris. Notice of the appointment of
Mr.. Bynum was made Immediately by
Judge Cobb just prior to the retirement
of Gov. Slaton but, under conditions
then existing at the capitol, it was not
acted upon with usual promptness. So
far Gov. Harris has not signed the
commission.
That matters will be Strengthened
out all right in a few days is a fact
assured, but in the meanwhile all
bills are held up. Next Monday is the
date of meeting of the county commits
sioners, when many bills will be acted
upon. Jurors in attendance upon court
this week will not get their per diem
upon adjournment today, in all likeli-
hood, for the reason stated
1t is an unusual condition, and one
that has not occurred in Sumter here
tofore.

While Americus and vicinity escap-
ed to great extent the fury of tho
windstorm yesterday afternoon, havoc
was played in other sections of the
state, and property loss is enormous.
Miles upon miles Of telegraph wires
are prostrated this morning and the
service throughout the state is cut off.
or badly hampered Fifteen miles Of
poles holding eighteen wires, are down
between Americus and Oglethorpe
alone. while miles Of wires are down
north Of Macon.
The wind blew with violence terrific.
and days will be required in repairing
even in part the damage wrought.
Orchards Are Badly Damaged.
There was much anxiety about the
peach crop. Inquiry at Fort Valley
from the leading growers Of the peach
belt today indicated that the total loss
to the peach growers may not exceed
10 per cent. Fort Valleys loss will be
100 cars, and Marshallville's so cars.
Bellies and Elbertas were hurt worst.
Many peach trees have been blown
down and limbs of others that were
loaded down with fruit that was iusf
r1pening were broken There was nrac-
tically no rain or hail at Fort Valley.
not enough to lay the dust. hence the
wind there caused a blinging sand
storm.
The Western Union and Postal Tele-
graph companies and the Southern
Bell Telephone company suffered
great deal from the storm.
Barn Wrecked in Sumter.
Out on the farm of F. B. Arthur,
near Americus, a large barn was lev
eled by the gale, the debris falling up
On seven mules in their stalls beneath.
Remarkable to relate, not one of the
animals was killed, or even seriously
injured, and all of them were dug out
OF the debris in safety. Many large
trees were blown down in different
localities about Americas. and mino;.
injury to tenant houses inflicted.
So far as reports received this
morning indicated, Sumter county es-
capped largely the destruction wrought
by the storm of yesterday.
Baggage Coach is Unroofed.
A remarkable incident of the storm
and one showing it's severity at certain
points, is the reported unrooing of
baggage coach of a Central passenger
train which left Americas for Macon
at 2 O'Clock yesterday afternoon. 1t is
said that as the train passed Aries
farm here the storm swooped down
upon it and lifted the roof off of the
baggage car completely.

ECONOMIC IDEAL

"Americans want an ideal higher
than the economic ideal on material
istic basis which is now charaCteris-
tic of the nation" said Prof. NJ. NJ.
Curtis of Western Reserve University
in a talk on American Ideals at the
Y. NJ. {. A. last night.
The speaker declared the economic
ideal to be the cause Of the grCa~COlI-
flict in Europe today. He pointed out
that in his state the people live and
dream only by steel, while in Hawaii
the predominatinC economic influence
is sugar.
He divided American ideals into
three periods. Previous to the revO-
luton the ideal was religious. from
the time of jefferson to Lincoln and
the civil war the predominating ideal
was for pure politics. This third pc
riod from the sixties up to the pres
ent has been dominated by CONNER
