FOOD SHYLOCKS ARE
JAILED IN SWITZERLA AND
Swiss Government Finds Itself Com
PEELED to Take Drastic Measures.

Swiss Government Finds Itself Com
PEELED to Take Drastic Measures.
The Swiss government finds itself
compelled to take drastic measures
against the spectators and usurers
who are driving food prices to an ex-
orbitant height. A number of these
harpies, many of whom are foreign
ers, have already been arrested and
will be mercilessly prosecuted.
On market day the spectators
meet the farmers outside of the town
and buy the loads of all wagons as
cheaply as possible. With the aid of
agents they then bring the products
to market and sell them at a profit
of hundred per cent or more. If
the grocers and vegetable and but
ter and egg dealers, or the house
wives refuse to pay the enormous
prices demanded by the spectators
all supplies disappear from the mar
ket at once, only to be offered at still
higher prices on the following day.
One of the arrested spectators
has confessed that he made more
than $4,000 by this method during
the last ID months. Three or four
of the spectators are said to have
become millionaires.

SONORA YAQUI INDIANS
USE BULLETS OF GOLD
Captured $4,000 in Gold and Fash
toned 1t Into Messengers of Death.

Captured $4,000 in Gold and Fash
toned 1t Into Messengers of Death.
1t is not alone upon the battle
fields of Europe that ammunition is
at high premium. 1t sounds like a
wild tale, but brief dispatch says
that the Yaqui Indians are using but
let's of gold in their operations in the
state of Sonora, Mexico. About $780,,
600 worth of gold precipitates were
captured some time ago in a raid on
an American pack train, and these,
say the report, have all been cast into
bullets. Gold, as such, is of no value
to the Yaqui outlaw; gold as bullets
is of immense Importance to him.
The Yaquis are expert manufact-
urers of powder; they mine their own
saltperter and sulphur and burn their
own charcoal. And they show the
greatest ingenuity in improvising bull
let's and cartridges. They have been
known to make up the latter with
match heads for caps. AS for the
former, gold precipitates are not the
only materials pressed into service.
During former uprising the aborlg-
inal insurgents used trolley wire.
This happened to be of the same cal
iber as Mauser bullets; cut into short
lengths it became a terribly effective
missile

unable to walk and had spent practi-
cally all of her time in a wheel chair.
Her son, Col. Green, and her
daughter, Mrs. Mathews Aston
Wilkes, who were the only children,
had been with her much of the time.
1t recently was reported that Mrs.
Green had turned over all of her fl
nancial affairs to her sons charge.
Estimates of Her Fortune.
Wall streets estimates of Mrs.
Green's fortune range from $20,000,-
600 to $10O,OOO,OO0. Officials of the
Chemical National Bank, in which
Mrs. Green once made her downtown
headquarters, declined to hazard q
guess concerning the size of her es-
tate.
Until a few years ago Mrs. Green
was familiar figure in the financial
district, but latterly her appearance
there had been very infrequent. 1t
is believed that a considerable part of
her money was invested in first mort
gage and high class railway bonds,
although she was said at one time to
have large sums invested in western
railways, including several in which
her son was actively identified.
Mrs, Green also was the reputed
owner of large tracts of land III Tex
as, Alabama and other Southern
states, but it is believed that she sold
the last of these holdings a few years
AGO.

Guilty in finding horses for the army.
''The European war;" he said, "has
taken from $50, 900 to 100000 horses
out of this country in the past two
years. At first the buyers for the
allies wouldn't take a horse under Is
hands and one inch high. Now they
are buying them smaller. That leaves
the rejected animals for this country.
Bear in mind, also, that when the au-
tomobile came in many people stopp-
ed breeding horses, and that curtailed
the supply. If this war with Mexico
actually goes on I don't for the life
of me see where we will get the
horses we need for our army"
