H0AD]LEY YACHT SEIZED AT SEA
 WITH LIBEL WRIT
Federal Officers Aboard Ala bama, Cruising Along Jer-
 sey Coast.

The yacht Alabama, which Mrs. Jo- seph H. Hoadley is alleged to have claimed as her property and on board which Karl T. Frederick. lawyer, was arrested Sept. 13 in claiming 1t for the American & British Manufac- turing Co.,, was seized yesterday af- ternooh, according to word received by Mr. Frederick t.a
 The seizure was made somewhere along the Jersey coast by Federal offi- cers who, with agency detectives, have been looking for the yacht since 1t left New York after MT. Frederick and a detective were arrested on Mrs. Hoadleys complaint.
 Federal officers were reported in charge of her last night and she may be taken to New York this morning when, it is said. the question of her ownership may be settled. The port from which the officers embarked to make the seizure was not disclosed.
 MT. Frederick, of the firm of Satter- lee, Canf1eld & Stone, 49 Wall street. represents the new management of the Amreican & British Manufactur- ing Co.,. which formerly was controll- ed by Joseph H. Hoadley.
 MT. Frederick, in going over the books of the concern, is said to have discovered that the Alabama belong ed to the company and that MT. Hoad- ley. had purchased her with the inten- ton of using her to entertain pros- pective customers of the munitions concern.
 The new president of the company gave. MT. Frederick a letter to the captain of the Alabama, instructine him, to give the vessel over to the lawyer. While MT. Frederick and the captain were discussing the matter as the crafe lay at anchor in the Hudson River off the Columbia Yacht club MT. and Mrs Hoadley went aboard An argument ensued and Mrs. Hoad- ley is quoted as claiming the yacht as her own.
 She filed a complaint against MT Frederick and John J. Kennedy, the detective who accompanied him. On September IS Chief Magistrate Nc Adoo acquitted them and Mr.' Fred erick instituted an action for $25 .000 damages against Mrs. Hoadley.
 When the lawyer and the detective were, arrested the Alabama steamed waya, and since that time MT. Fred erick and officials of the American & British Company have been searchine for her in various ports. It is. said they located her yesterday and that detectives and federal officers. armed with federal libel on the vessle, seiz- ed her.
 All MT. Frederick would say was:- we have located the watch Alabama today in New Jersey and she was seiz. ed by the American & British Co. A United States Marshal is in possession This is the craft which was refused to me by MT. Hoadley last week, wh< claimed it was given to his wife b, the company as birthday present"

Company three lots on Main street

NOVEL ENTERTAINMENT

A novel and unusual attraction will
be the appearance at the Caughren
theatre Tuesday and Wednesday,
Nov. Ia and Is, of the two sterling
actors, Tom Nawn and Hal. Davis,
supported by a capable cast, in four
one-act plays, each of which has been
presented with distinguished success
throughout America and in the lead
ing theaters of England and Austral-
ia, entitled "Pat and the Genii," by
the late Edmund Day, "A Touch Of
Nature" by Tom Nawn, "The Unex-
pected," by Edmund Day, and "a
Busy Day." by Searle Allen. The two
former playlets have been the star
ring vehicles in which Mr.. Nawn has
been eminently popular and successful
on the big time vaudeville circuits
while the two latter have served to
make Mr.. Davis one of the biggest
salaried features on every vaudeville
bill in America. The two popular ac-
tors have joined forces, embodied
these four plays in one evenings en-
tertainment, have surrounded them
selves with company of distinguish
ed merit and on account of the real
worth of stars, plays and cast and the
novelty of the idea as dramatic en-
tertainment, are meeting with unus-
ual success.

Wilson again took the lead in North
Dakota, when returns from 1904 pre-

returns gave the state to Wilson, and
leading Republicans conceded the de-
feat Of Hughes. Later their hopes re-
vived on returns from isolated dis

Hughes. Finally the president went
