man, the pilot who brought the sub
marine freighter Deutschland safely
into port, will take her out again.
Plans of the promoters call for him to
pilot her down the bay before night.
This was learned authoritatively early
today, and it was understood that
Coleman was then at the dock where
the Deutschland and the tug Timmins
lie.
Shortly after the information con-
cerning the pilot became known, the
tug Timmins and the smaller launch
Efco started out toward mid-channel
carrying a drag, apparently to pick
up any mines or distractions.
Everything was ready for the get
away and the tip that the vessel
would sail before night came from q
more reliable source than the usual
crop of unconfirmed and unconfirm-
able rumors. There were also reports
from various members of the Timins
crew that the sailing is at hand.
The revenue cutter Apache lay in the
Patapsco short distance below the
Deutschland, apparently ready to see
that she had fair play on her return
journey.
Rumor had it that the Deutschland IS
sister ship, the Bremen, is due along
the Atlantic seaboard either today or
tomorrow, but there was no definite
information as to whittier she will dock
here or in Boston.

COURT |NTERPRETS
MOTHERS PENS|ONLAW
Holds Mrs. Finley Was En-
titled to Pension From
Application

The mothers pension law and its
status under the laws of 1913 and 1915
is interpreted by the supreme court in
an opinion handed down this morning in
the case of Mary Luella Finley, re-
spondent, VS.. County OF Marion, an APP
peal from the Judgment OF Circuit
Judge Galloway.
Mrs. Finley filed for a pension under
the mothers law of 1913, setting forth
that her husband was entirely incap-
able of supporting her and her son, then
about eight years old. Being of the
opinion that the petitioner was not en-
titled to the relief sought, by reason Of
the fact that she was at work which
kept her away from home much of the
day and for other causes not necessary
to mention, the county court took no
action on the petition until July 80,
1915, when it entered an order deny
ing the same, but gave other relief.
Mrs. Finley then appealed the case to
the circuit court, and Judge Galloway
decided she was entitled to widow s
pension, but held she was guilty of
lsches in not compelling the juvenile
court to act upon her petition sooner
and allowed her compensation only from
July 80, 1915.
The supreme court is Of the opinion
that mother is not required to be
with her children all the time under
the act of 1913 if she keeps them to.
gether in the home. and that she does
not forfeit her right to pension by
working away from the family resi-,
dence if such labor is necessary to con-
tribute to the subsistence of the family.
In this case the petitioner was entitled
TO pension of $40 month from date
of application. 1t is ruled that the coun-
ty court acting as a Juvenile court un-
der the terms of the act of 1913 cannot
grant other relief than that provided
in the act. The court holds that it is
not the intent of the act of 1913 to re-
peal any of the conditions Of the act
of 1918 so as to affect amounts then
due, which should have been allowed in
the regular course of proceeding. and
that Sums accrued before the act Of 1916
went into effect should be allowed in
full. Subject to this exceptions: No

The fact that 1000 men and women

break another one of his famous ST.

as auguring well for success in No

braiding of the Wilson administration,

cipal issue in his fight against Wilson
will be the Mexican situation.
The second line offensive will be
bombardment along the lines of "ad'

Nearly eight years ago, Hughes ac-
cepted the gubernatorial nomination in
Madison Square Garden. At that time
and in the campaign which followed he
was adiudged one of the best cam
