western coast of Ireland, just south
of the mouth of the river Shannon
with two Irish companions. British
secret service agents pounced upon
them Immediately but one of the trio
escaped and is still at large.
Sink Own Arms Ship.
The submarine and an auxiliary
steamer laden with ammunition crept
out of Kiel canal and made their way
around the northern coast of Scotland,
the auxiliary flying the Dutch flag.
The steamer was stopped by a British
patrol but showed regular papers to
a boarding party and was allowed to
proceed. Another British patrol fired
a shot across her bow the following
day and, seeing no reason why a
Dutch tramp should be in North Irish
waters, ordered the auxiliary to pre-
cede her into Queenstown.
The submarine carrying Sir Roger
Easement and his comrades followed
keeping submerged. The auxiliary
steamed southwark several hours but
vessel the crew blew her up. The
German sailors were made captives
and Sir Roger and his comrades were
surprised few hours later when they
landed from the submarine in a col
lapsible boat.

CAPPER HELD 1T UP
Continued from Page one,

sentence has apparently been little un-
derstood by people who have followed
developments in the crime against the
Topeka school girl.
In the face of his record of crimes
against at least one other little girl
and his alleged crime against nature,
Blssell was released from prison. Be
fore his prison term would have ex-
pired-and within a month of the
Dinsmore murder-he was restored to
citizenship.
1t was after Bissen had served a
term in the state reformatory at
Hutchinson that he was sent to- the
penitentiary from Jackson county for
a crime against nature. The Hutchin-
son sentence was drawn by Bissell fol-
lowing conviction on a charge of as
sault. This crime was alleged to have
been committed in Washington coun-
, ". A seven year old girl was his vic
tim.
According to statements of the case,
BisseIl stripped the child of her cloth
ing, but was overpowered before he
had accomplished his purpose. 1t was
after the term in the state reforma-
tory that Bisse1 went to Jackson
county. There he was convicted on a
charge of a revolving crime.
Gave Him a Parole.
The two big offenses of BisseIl faced
the state board of corrections when
the alleged slayer of Edna Dinsmore
appeared in April, 1915, and sought a
parole.s BisSell had at the time served
80 months of an indeterminate five
year sentence. His minimum would
not have expired until November,
1915 On April IA 1915, the board of
corrections gave Bissen a parole and
he was released from prison
Wanted to Join Army.
Recently BisseH went before Gov
ernor Capper with the plea that he
wanted to Join the army. Before he
could enlist, however, it was necessary
that he receive citizenship papers.
These papers were given March %,
this year.
This morning, with Bissen in the
state penitentiary under protection
death of the Dinsmore girl, papers
were drawn which would have re-
voked the citizenship grant to Bissell.
Governor Capper, however, refused to
sign these papers. 1t was explained
that such action might be taken as a
presumption of guilt in advance of the
introduction of evidence. So BisSell
remained a citizen of Kansas, subject
to operations of habeas- corpus pro-
ceeding5 and other legal technicalitieS.
Had the citizenship papers been with
drawn by the governor. BisseH would
have been returned to prison to serve
the remainder of his sentence and
could have been returned to Shawnee
county for trial on the murder charge
when public sentiment subsidized.
Announcement that BisselIs citizen
ship would be revoked was made from
the governors office at 1920 this
morning. Later the governor refused
to sign the notice

T0DAY'S MARKET REPORT

Chicago, April 27-WHEAT-wh
prices developed fresh strength today in
fluenced somewhat by a renewal of op-
tmism as to the outcome of the crisis be
tween Washington and Berlin. The mar
ket was also bullishly affected by the out
look for a diminished yield in both the
spring and the winter domestic crops On
the other hand, the prospect of sharp com
petition from Canada, Argentina. Aus
tralia and India was said to be operating
as check on all advances The opening,
which ranged from shade to sc higher
with May at S11412 to $1.14% and July at
$1.151s to S1.1515 was followed by a mod
crate setback but then another bulge.
Forecasts of good weather northwest led
afterward to declines. The close was I'M
settled, 12c net lower with May at 81 1917
and July at n.141a 611145s.
CORN-Corn hardened with wheat, bears
however, made much of reports that the
country was selling more freely than has
recently been the case. After opening a
shade off to II a &c higher, prices reacted
a little, though only in transient fashion
Shipping demand from the east was only
partly effective afterward in offsetting the
influence of late weakness in wheat The
close was heavy at &C to &c net decline.
OATS-Oats lacked support Liquidation
sales by holders of the May option con-
tinued.
PROVISIONS-Specul buying of
lard put firmness into the whole provision
list Offerings of lard appeared to have
dried up.

The search made was a thorough one.
Every cell was peered into and the
committee insisted even on going
through the sheriff's residence, near
by. They were allowed to do so.
Several witnesses told of seeing
pieces of cloth in the hands of several

accused man. Before the mob left,

Kiene's destination had leaked" and

to Sheriff Cummings that seven cars
headed for Lawrence were passing
through Midland, small village four
miles north Within 20 minutes after
that time they appeared. One of the
officials who mingled in the mob said

who had donned their hunting clothes
after an all days work" There was
no attempt to conceal the identity of
any member
