PER POUND PRICE
 IF RAO|UM
At Current Rate One Pound of the Rare Element Could be Sold for Fabulous Sum. Gram Brings S12O,00O.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-More than s9,OOO,0O0 a pound would be the price asked for redium were that quantity of the valuable metal available and fore sale at one time. Late in 1915 there was sold in this country one one one-tenth grams of radium (ele- ment at the rale of S120.O00 a gram, according to a report is sued today by the United States Geological Survey. The entire out put of the United States last year, however. was only 6 grams, or about 1-76 of a pound avoidupois. The European was caused a great slump in the production of radium, as in 1914 there were 22.3 gram
 "The United States has the largest known radium-bearing de- posits in the world" says the Geological Survey, but the mar ket for radium is mostly in Flu rope, for. although Americans like to feel that they are sufficiently progressive to take holf and use to the full new discoveries, in- ventions. and processes. yet the European municipalities and hos pitals have been buying and util- izing most of the radium pro duced. When the war began, therefore. causing European mo- ney to flow into other channels. the demand for radium fell off so greatly that there was practically no market for radium or uranium ores in the early part of 1915. and 7erv little market during any part of the year"
 As a result of the collapse Of the radium market. mining of radium-bearing ores except for such work as was necessary to hold claims. was nearly stopped. Through the efforts of the experts of the United States Bureau of Mines a process has been develop ed by which radium has been pro- duced at a cost of S37.599 a gram. The principle fields of the radium- bearing ores are in Volorado and Utah.

NETS SHERIFF MUCH
 WH|SKEy
Three Men Arrested by Sher- if and Deputy at and Near Douglas. One Already Had Charge Pending.

TOMBSTONE, Jan. 31.-(SpeciaD- Sheriff Wheeler and Deputy Percy Rowden returned this morning from a trip to Douglas and along the | Borderland Route east of Douglas in the vicinity of Chiricahua and Der nardino, where they went in search of bootleggers. They were successful in capturing three men and were the means of stopping several shipments of liquor they were scheduled to ar rive in there Saturday night
 The first man to fall in their clutch es was G. w. Stone, who was in a wagon and had about thirty cases in the bed of the vehicle as well as five gallons of alcohol which was to have been used in the manufacture of boot leg in Douglas. Stone had the bottles in the wagon having taken them out of the cases. As soon as hte officers took Stone to Douglas they returned to Bernardino and while going through the mud they ran across Any John son and William Murray, of Bisbee. in a Studebaker car in which were about twenty cases that had also been taken out of the cases. They took them to Douglas where they were both given examinations and held under s1,O0O bond each. Last night Sheriff Wheeler caught P. E. Burke as he stepped of the Golden State Limited with two. suit cases filled with whiskey. Both Burke and Stone will enter pleas of guilty and will soon be added to the road gang.
 The officers bring stories of other dealings of the bootleggers. M. A. Patterson. who formerly ran the saloon at Rodeo. a few days ago. sent out a man with a wagon to bring in a shipment. The man secured the shipment and started back with it but decided that he might make more out of it if he ditehed the whiskey and tod that it had beer taken from him. 6e went back to Douglas and informed Patterson that two deputy sheriffs had taken the whiskey away from him. Patterson started out to investigate and then the man admit ted that he had hid the whiskey. When they went to find it, however. the whiskey was gone. A dry farmer along the road had witnessed the hid ding of the booze and as soon as the teamster drove off he went to the place with his wagon and loaded if up and now has about thirty cases of good whiskey that he says he intends to keep for his friends and will not sell any of it. He has made arrange ments to see that it is placed in a safe place so that it will not be stolen.
 Another lot of bootlegsers had a shipment in Douglas and when they learned that Wheeler and Bowden were in town they disposed of it at reduced prices and left for Fl Paso.
 Johnson. who was arrested. is at the present time under bond for the same offense and will have his trial soon. Murray has already served a term for introducing whiskey and will. no doubt. have another chance to work on the road. Johnson claimed to the officers that he received the whiskey on this side of the line but admitted that he had paid a man s10 to put the whiskey over on the Ari- zona side for him and that it cost him about s25O.

Woodrow Wilson Given Ova- ton in Chicago Where He Tells Citizens of Lake City of Our Unpreparedness.
SAYS NAVY IS IN FAIR
 SHAPE AT PRESENT
We Are a Body of Idealists Much More Ready to Lay Down Our Lives for a Thought Than a Dollar"

CHICAGO, Jan. 31-"We have been given in the present fleet of the Unit. ed States an organization such as it never had before, am told by Admiral Fletcher" said the president in his preparedness address here. We made preparations for immediate war. so far as the navy is concerned. The army, g sat present constituted, is not large enough even for ordinary duties in time of peace"
 The president repeated the warnings that. no time must be lost in strength ening the defenses of the nation. He declared the government is doing everything it could for preparedness.
 When I See my fellow citizen spread finder where sparks are folling, I wonder what their ideal American ism is;" he said. The warning na- tions had cruelty misjudged America, he said. They do not feel the con viction of America that our mission is peace, and that righteousness cannot be maintained as a standard in the midst of arms" he said
 Continuing the president said:
 They do not realize that back of all our energy we are body of ideal ist much more ready to lay down our lives for thought than for a dollar. They suppose, some of them, that we lff m lrsa money while they are dying-the most cruel misunderstanding nation ever had to face, so wrong that it seems almost useless to try to correct it be- cause it shows the very fundamentals of our life are not comprehended or understood" The rulers, and not public opinion precipitated the present war, the president declared.
 Thank God there is no man in the United States who has the au- thority to bring on war without the consent of the nation," he said. "The task of the United States has been to assert the principles of law in the world in which the principles of law were broken down. We were not think ing of an invasion of the territory of the United States That is not what is making us think.
 We are asking ourselves shall we be prepared only to defend our own homes, shores. Is that all we stand for?' To keep the door shut securely against our enemies? What about the greatest trusteeship set up for the liberty of the national government in whole Western Hemisphere. We stand pledged to see that both continents of America are left free to be used by their people as they choose to use them under the system of national. popular sovereignty as absolutely un- challenged as our own"
 The president arrived at Chicago from Milwaukee at six o'clock He was dripen to a hotel. Later he went to the auditorium, which was a riot of red, white and blue. The back of the stage was set as an American coat of arms, the main floor, galleries were white with faces. Many vainly sought to obtain tickets Twelve hundred po- Slice held in check nthe sidewalk the tbrongs. clearing the streets en- tirely of traffic between the hotel and the auditorium.
