Failing to Compel Woman t.
ElOpe, Man Fires Store

Glasgow, NO., May 24.-The firing
Of the millinery store of Miss Lottie
Pennock followed an attempt to alb
duct her last night. Miss Pennock
went to the store between 8 and 9 p.
m. and at the rear of the room a
masked man stepped out Of a closet
and grabbed her. He bound and
gagged her and demanded that she
leave town with him. She refused and
he spent several hours threatening
her and trying to get her promise to
depart. This proving unsuccessful,
he piled boxes and paper on the floor
and started a fire.
Miss Pennock managed to roll to
the front of the store and beat upon
the door. Persons living in the adj
joining building smelled smoke and
rescued Miss Pennock. She is un-
able to give the name of her assailant
and is on the verge Of nervous break
down. The millinery stock is a total
loss, but the damage to the building
is slight. .

JURY FINDS FOR ROOSEVELT
Blu Judge Andrews Refused to Accept
Verdict Because Of Conditions
Attached.

Syracuse N. ". May 22.-The. jury
in the trial of the libel suit Of vii.
liam Barnes against Theodore Roose-
welt was deadlocked tonight after hav-
ing returned a conditional, verdict in
favor of the former president, which
Supreme Court. Justice William s. An.
drews refused to receive. The condi-
ton which made the verdict an i'm
proper one was the stipulation that
the court costs and disbursements
should be divided between the princi-
pals in the action.
Today's deadlock resulted from the
announcement OF juror No led
ward Burns, Syracuse motorman and
Republican-that if the costs and
disbursements were not divided he
favored verdict for the plaintiff.
Attorneys connected with the case
tonight said they considered it i'm
probable that the jury would be held
over until Monday should it fail to
find proper verdict by tomorrow. Up
to late hour tonight; after the pre-.
posal of putting the costs on one or
the other of the defendants had been
under consideration for more than ten
hours, no word had come from the
jury room to indicate that the senti-
ments Of the jurors had changed
from what it was when the court or
dered reconsideration.

WANT THE EMBARGO LIFTED
Packers and Cotton interests to Urge
President to Stop the Euro
Iean Blockade.

Washing ton, May 25.-Prisident
Wilson will be asked to take steps to
secure the British order in councils
SUSPENSION. so far as it affects Ameri-
can exports to neutral countries con-
I-tiguous to Germany.
The countrys great packing indus
tries are effecting combination with
the Southern cotton interests. The aim
is to secure concerted action, thus i'm.
pressing the administration with an
idea of the damage that is being done
to American trade by the attempt of
England and her allies to starve Ger
many out.
In order to do so, it is complained
that England has practically stopped
American shipments to, the neutral
Scandinavian countries. practically
every vessel carrying either meat
products or cotton to Scandinavia or
Holland having been held up on the
high seas by British or French war
ships and taken into port. The own
ers of vessels and cargoes have been
compelled to fight for their rights in
the British prize courts and there
have been delays that have caused
them serious financial loss.
President Wilson is to be asked to
demand in the name of the United
States that this be stopped.
