up again during the trials Of the
Hamburg-Amcrican line officials mst
included in New York, in which wit
nesses testified that Captain Boy-Ed
handled he money which came from
Berlin for char.crine the ships and
furnishing them with supplies.
The government did not contend
that an cffenso against the neutrality
of the United States had been com
mitted by sending the ships, but that
the officials Of the Hamburg-Ameri-
can line had guilty knowledge of the
fact that the customs houses of the
United States we're deceived and de-
frauded into issuing clearance pa
pers for ships ON false statements.

Wooden company for 20 cents a
pound, and that the jenkins and Will
liams clips in that state had been
bounght for 10 cents.
Mr.. Holiday wired J. Sheehan,
cashier of the First National banr,
in Winnemucca for verification OF the
report Immediately after hearing it,
and in reply received the informa-
ton that the Taylor clip had not
been sold at all, but that an option
had been given to he American
Wooden company on it at 23A sents
per pound, 3A cents more than the
reported sale price, and that the Jen-
kins clip had sold at 20H cents.
Mr.. Holiday declares that the Tay-
Tor clip could have been sold some
days ago for % cents, and that the
growers declined to sell. He de

COMBINETO SCATTER SUNSHINE
DURING YULETIDE SEASON
Committees Appointed to Alleviate
Wants of Worthy Poor and Make

recently appointed by the Knights of

that lodge in the distribution of sun
shine into dark places along the path
way of unfortunates during the Yule-

act independently, but when the Elks
assembled at the council chamber Fri

cedure the invitation to create a COM
bine was extended and eagerly ac-
cepted, it being appreciated that the
undertaking could be made more ef-
fectively accomplished through union.
President Kirkpatrick appointed
Messrs. L. D. Brown, A. L. Martin

represent the Elks, and this commit

Toys and confections will be dis

in years gone by have frightened
many cheerless homes at this happy
