REPORTS OF JAP NAVAL
BASE IN LOWER CALIFORNIA
Officials Investigating What Japanese
Shire Are Doing in Mexican Waters.

Washington, April 16.-While disin-
clined to credit reports that japan had
established a naval base at Turtle Bav.
Lower California, United States Off
Gals today instituted an investigation
with the idea of learning exactly what
use the belligerent warships were max
ing of Mexican territorial waters.
Secretary Daniels. telegraphed Rear
Admiral Howard of the Pacific fleet
the substance of the published stories
and asked him to ascertain whether
there was any foundation for them
Secretary Bryan has received no in
formation from the American consuls
in Lower California to the effect that
the Japanese intend to establish a
naval base there; but it is understood
he will communicate the press reports
to them with a request for any facts
that may bear on the subject.
Enrique c. Llorette, Washington
representative Of General Villa, tele-
graphed Estevan Cantu, military gov
ernor of Lower California, which is
controlled by the Villa faction, to
make an investigation of the situa-
ton,
Commander Nomura. naval attache
of the Japanese embassy, called in
formally on navy department officials
today and assured them that there
was no truth in the reports that any
attempt was being made to establish
a permanent naval base. He is un-
derstood to have explained that the
presence Of the Japanese warships
was due entirely to the accident to the
cruiser Asana, which ran aground
there recently.
There was informal discussion of
the Turtle Bay situation at today's
cabinet session. but the general ten
dency was to discredit reports that
have reached here.

Ordered to Serve Sentence-convicted
of Illegal Operation at New Haven,

New Haven, Conn.,, April 16.-Mrs
Edith A. Hotchkiss, who last July was
sentenced to states prison from one
to three years for performing an il
legal operation, but who has since been
on probation, was today ordered to
serve her sentence by Judge Webb in
the superior court.
At the conclusion Of his remarks to
the judge States Attorney A1ling pro-
duced a letter, and ten five dollar bills,
which he said had been sent to Cor
oner Eli Mix on March 10 last The
letter, which was unsigned, said in
effect that the writer had learned of
a kindness done her by the coroner
and that $50 was enclosed as an ap-
probation.
Colonel Alling declared that a COM
parison Of the writing and Mrs. Hotch-
kiss handwriting indicated that the
letter was written by her. An expert
on handwriting made an Investigation
and he drew the same conclusion. Col
onel Alling said.
Neither Mrs. Hotchkiss nor he'd at
torneys made any rebuttal to the
states attorneys remarks.
After court, Coroner Mix gave out
a long statement, telling of his in
vestigation of the case concerning the
Illegal operation and the receipt of
the anonymous letter. According to
his statement. Mrs. sHotchkiss admit
ted that she wrote the letter.
The coroner says the letterwas an
evident attempt to bribe him and he
promptly turned 1t over with the
money to the states attorney for ac-
ton.

against him by the police.
Signed "BIack Hand"
According to Mr.. Dobbyn, one of
and the other on Thursday of this
week. The first letter contained the
demand for $500 and stated that un-
less it fas forthcoming the young mill
lionaire would be killed. A skull and
crossbones adorned the head of the
missive which was signed BLACK

No attention was paid to the COM
munication until the second letter
was received, when Mr.. Dobbyn noti-
fed the. police and plans were made
to trap the man.
Tried to Draw a Revolver.
Captain Tummey and Detective
BarnitZ were assigned to the case and
they followed Mr.. Dobbyn to the
Grand Central station. where the pris-
oner, Mariella, in response to a pre-
and asked if he had the $500 and if
SO to turn it over to him quickly.
Mr.. Dobbyn put his hand to his fore
head, a signal agreed upon with the
police officers and they closed in and
arrested Martella after a short strug-
gle in which the man tried to draw
a loaded revolver.
Stole $500 From His Father.

ton was still valid. Plans are now

Surprise to Thaw's Counsel.
A decision adverse to Thaw came as
a great surprise to his counsel They
able to their client upon remarks made
had built their hopes of action favor
by the three of the appellate justices
when the appeal was being presented.
The justices gave it as their opinion
that there was involved in the case
@ question of the good faith of the
state of New York in refusing to re-
turn Thaw to New Hampshire. In the
decision of today, however, the court
held that in returning involuntarily to
this jurisdiction Thaw was subject to
no promise or inducement and that
New Hampshire had only done the
duty expected of 1T when it returned
him to New York to answer for a
crime for which he had been indicted.
Five Days More in New York.
The order fthe appellate division
carried with it the provision that
Thaw could not be taken from New
York county until five days had elaps-
ed. This action, it was explained,
would have been taken no matter whaS
the decision, so that counsel for the
losing side might take action deemed
necessary, such as filing a notice Of
appeal.
The writ of habeas corpus sworn out
in Thaw's behalf after he was acquit-
ed of the charge of conspiracy is
finally returnab1e on Monday. At that
time counsel will present arguments
urging that their client he granted
permission to have a jury determine
his present mental condition. Should
a decision unfavorable to Thaw be
forthcoming by Wednesday the state
p ri Chf fn 70 r
tewan forthwith. proving his coun-
sci shall have not secured a stay of
execution in the order committing him
10 Matteawan. pending appeal.
May Secure Stay.
Thaw's attorneys may secure such
a stay tomorrow OF Monday. Thaw
himself, refused tonight to comment
upon the action of the court.
The opinion of the appellant divi-
sion covered twelve typewriter pages
and was written by Justices Hotchkiss
and Scott. Justices Mclaughlin,
Clark and Ingraham concurred in the
result.
The opinion began by sketching the
case Of Thaw from the time of the
killing of Stanford White until Thaw
was extradicted, and went on to say
1uenced those who procured Thaw' S
return to this state have nothing to do
with the case, and that he may be
discharged only when by due process
of the law he shall have been ascer-
tained to be safe.
Old Commitment Still Valid.
All things considered that part of
the opinion written by Justice Scott
asserted the fact remains that Thaw
is now in this state and there is a
valid commitment against him for his
restraint as a person of JlnSOund mind
The opinion concluded as follows:
'It may be that the state would be
well rid of so troublesome a guest
and that in view Of his acquittal it is
to be regretted that having once left
1t be was brought back, but that is
not matter for judicial considera-
tion. All that we have to consider
is his right to be discharged from the
lawful, outstanding commitment to
Matteawan. and it seems to me clear

tions been made to warn the people

French RepuIse Germans.
OF the land fighting France asserts
that three counterattacks by the Ger
mans on the newly Won French posi-
ton at Notre Dame LIE Lorette and
a similar attack at Les Eparges failed
three German batteries were silenced
and an ammunition depot blown UP.
In the carpathians.
In the Carpathians now deep in mud
from the spring thaw and in parts
inundated by spring freshets, Petro-
grad asserts that two heights between
the villages Of Telepotch and Zuella
were taken by the Muscovite troops
at the point of the bayonet while in
the vicinity Of Rostoki and in the
Stry region Austrian attacks were re-
pulsed. Vienna says that only isolated
fighting has taken place in the wooded
sectors of the mountains, but that at
one point a Russian advance was re-
pulsed with heavy losses. Several
slight engagements in Poland are noted
both by Vienna and Petrograd.
IN the fighting in the south the Brit
ish India troops are reported to have
defeated the Turks in Mesoptamia
but in doing so had losses of about
700 men. Russian warships have sunk
several Turkish merchantmen in the
Black sea and bombarded forts in Asia
Minor
On the political side the Austrian
official Fremdenblatt denies that Aus
tria intends. to conclude a separate
peace with Russia.
