SEVERAL. ENTER PLEAS OF GUILTY
District Attorney Kirwan Taking En-
ergetic Steps to Suppress Vice

District Attorney Kirwan, Under
Sheriff Dodson, and Ben Stelzman
as deputy, took John Seymour and
Mrs. Lydia Pearsall to Eau Claire
Monday, where, before Judge Wick
ham, they plead guilty to adultery.
They had been living together for
some time and had filed a false birth
certificate for an illegitimate child
born q year ago. The court SEN
fenced each to year at Waupun,
but placed them in charge of the
state probation officer, who will put
them to work, somewhere within the
state, under his supervision.
Daniel Copas was taken to Eau
Claire last week and plead guilty to
lewd conduct with Charlotte Copas,
his aunt In this unsavory case,
there were two children and no
birth certificate had been fled for
either. Copas was sentenced to one
year in the county JAIL where he is
at present. He has not ben re-
leased on probation
William Pearsall was arrested
Saturday and given hearing in
Justice Reeves court Wednesday
forenoon, being charged with lewd
conduct. He was bouDd over to cir
cult court under bonds of $500, which
at this writing he has not furnished
and is, therefore, confined in the
county jail.
Other prosecutions are to be
brought soon in this "cleanilg-up'
process, the district tor0ey IT,

GERMAN CROP DECREASED,
WRITES j. f. HAckFELD

The Germans beet sugar crop for
1916 viii be smaller than last year's,
according to a letter received from ].
+. Hackfeld by Georg Rodiek, man
ager OF Hackfeld & Co.
Most of the German beet crop has
now been harvested, but no figures
Fave yet been given out as to the
probable final result. Owing to con-
tinued unfayofable weather the sugar
contents OF part Of the beets has no
doubt suffered and the present crop
will not show the high returns secured
from the previous crop.
Nothing definite has so far been
decided as to the area of beets to be
sown during Hext spring. AS there Is,
however, "a large stock of sugar on
hand, only small part of which can
be exported. t may be expected with
certainty that some reduction is estim,
ated, by some at 25< per cent. Ger
many has been importing large guam
titles of food for cattle, horses and
pigs and it may appear advisable to
many people, who have no experience
in the cultivation of beets, to utilize a
part of the area of land used fol
beets for raising fodder for cattle.

NAVY YARD MAY

Especial STAR Bulletin Correspondehce1
FORT SKATER, March 16,---It is
understood that the navy yard at Pearl
Harbor Il DESTROYS OF supplying Fort
Shafter with electric current for light.
ing purposes from its plant at the yard
and that the matter has been taken
under adyisement by the local army
ouarterIraster. "
The line for supply OF current for
the navy's pumping station in Moana-
lua Is Ii operation and the distance
that poles and wiring would have to
be supplied TO bring the service into
this post is only about one-haH mile.
The navy has, 1t is learned, offered
to supply current at a figure well be.
low that at present paid the Honolulu
company, and II would seem that the
plan would recommend itself on the
ground Of economy. The Pearl Harbor
people are seemingly anxious to have
the plan adopted. as the extension Of
service would enable them to run their
plant on an all-night schedule by rea'
son of the additional income.
Al. present the plant is shut down at
midnight and after that hour no cur
rent for any purpose IS obtainabie.
The navy department has refused TO
allow the additional funds necessary
for the operation of the plant later
than midnight and the local authori-
ties at the navy station see In the pro-
rosed army patronage "a plan Of re-
lief from the six hours Of enforced
darkness under the present hours OF
operation. |
Their argument of economy for the
army is convincing one provided the
law permits government plants to en-.
ter the supply field when the prospec.
tive customer is another department
OF the government That the Pearl
Harbor plant would be debarred un-
der the law from entering the general
supply field is well understood, but
the proposed scheme would seem to
be entirely within sanction. From fig
ures presented It would appear that
the quartermaster's department would
be able to effect a saving of at least
SO per cent in its present bills for
lighting at this post and that with an
initial expense of but the amount ne

WILLEII 8 GRAY
DISCUSS FOREIGN
DEVELOP NENTS

international conditions that might
tend to depress the sugar market have
been Offset by heavy buying of Cubans
and the price of sugar is remaining
high as result, according to. WfIlett'
& Gray. The Journal discusses for
eign developments at length:
Private advices from London, it
saws, deny that the government in
tends to remove the prohibition
against the Importation Of sugar from
neutral countries by private interests.
The report says: =, q j
while a partial cause of the, de-
cline appears to have been the proba-
bility of the release of sugars from
Russia sooner or later, the cause OF
the sudden change and partial recey-
cry was due to the purchase in Cuba
of some 100000 bags of centrifugals
at prices of 3.35c per lb., and 3.5oc
per lb. free on board Cuba In April,
the buying being supposed to be ulti-
mately for shipments to either France
or Great Britain and in. addition to
former purchases for these accounts.
And growing out of this buying re,
ports were circulated that the embar.
60 imports into Great Britain were
about to be removed. g.
Private cables, However, from Lon.
don pronounced such reports as un.
founded. Other causes therefore must
be assumed as the most likely reason,
founded to some extent at least on
positive inforwatfon,
t"As regards the effect OF the open
ing of the Dardanelles, If accomplish
ed, with the release of Russian sugar
to Great Britain and France, that IS
more far reaching and must be kept
in mind. j..
