SWEDEN IS MENACED
BY Big MINE FIELD
Germans Plant Coastal
Waters With Explosives
to Stop Traffic.

STOCKHOLM, Feb. 29.-Nia Lon
don, 1855 p. m.-Germany now has
taken her long expected action in
laying II mine field around the Fal-
sterbo peninsula near the southern
extremity of Sweden on the Baltic,
scarcely three miles off shore. AS
the passage left Is very shallow, no
where deeper than fifteen feet, most
merchant ships are obliged to steam
outside the mine field into interna-
tional waters where German cruisers
are on patrol.
The new mine field is intended to
prevent traffic in contraband along
the Swedish coast to Finnish ports,
but as the steamers used in this traf-
fic draw little water, seldom over
ten feet, the mine field has not af-
fected them. All larger ships, how
ever, will be put under German sur
veillance and not even Swedens navy
will be able to sail from the North
sea to the Baltic nor the reverse
without German pilots.
1t is understood that sweden made
energetic representations against the
mine field being placed in this way
and that Wilhelmstrassc was willing
to drop the scheme If Sweden would
agree TO prohibit contraband traffic
along her coast. As such a step, ho"-
ever. would present complications us
Danish and Norwegian ships are
largely employed in the traffic and
as it was held that II would look ike
partiality toward the central powers,
Sweden, 1t was said, refused.
The Swedish steamer knippla
which struck the mine and was sunk
yesterday was the first victim of the
mine field All on board her were
saved but there is great indignation
among Swedes over the occurrence rs
no announcement whatever was given
and the mines were laid by night.
Several Swedish dostroyers had mar
row escapes from striking mines in
this field.

KNOCKOUT BLOW
TO TAX FERRETS
Supreme Court Says Sleuths
Can't Go Too Far in
Forcing Payment.

Special to The World.
OKLAHOMA CITY Feb. %
The case of tax Eerrets employed by
boards of county commissioners OF
the state to discover and submit az
legged omitted property for listing on
the tax rolls was not helped any ny
"A decision handed down today by the
supreme court, the opinion written by
Justice Hardy. o. X. McCombs had
been employed by the commissioners
OF Grant county and in his work the
tax ferret sought to have listed prop
erty belonging to Stewart Brothers.
The county treasurer refused to al
low the property to be listed for tax
alton, and the tax ferret appealed to
the county court. Here his appeal
was dismissed and then he took the
matter to the supreme court. The
high court sustained the action of the
lower court.
The supreme court, in disposing of
the case, said:
"A tax ferret has not such interest
in the subject matter involved in a
proceeding to discover property not
listed and assessed for taxation, and
to list and assess the same, as to 1u-
thoriZe him to prosecute an appeal
treasurer to the county court or from
the county court to the supreme
court"
The court holds that the tax ferret
must have "A direct and pecuniary in
terest in the matter. and not as re-
mote consequence of the judgment
The decision will have a far-reac hing
effect concerning the work of tax fer
rets in the state.
