ACCUSED COUPLE IN CUSTOMS PLOT
 KIN THE KAISER
Further Arrests Expected in Plot to Smuggle Explo-
 sives Aboard Raiders.

Philadelphia, March 12.-In the ab- sence of official instructions from Washington, search of the interned German commerce raiders, kronpflnz Wilhelm and the Prlnz Eltel Fried rich, at the Philadelphia navy yards for explosives, reported to have been smuggled aboard, was deferred today by local agents of the department of justice.
 Investigation of the alleged con- spiracy has resulted in the arrest Of five persons, and additional arrests i'll the plot, which may approach status international in aspect, are conteln- plated, federal agents admitted to- night.
 Henry Rohner, president of the Henry Rohner company, wholesale grocers, one of the principles in lhe alleged customs frauds, asserted ln- nocence today. He admitted that two of his chauffeurs, under arrest as Wit nesses, had hauled certain articles to and from the ships for Mrs. Helena Fischer. wife of Adelbert Fischer, president of the Schutte company, ma chinists, of this city. MT. and Mrs. Fischer, who are said to be related to the emperor of Germany, are the other principals accused by the government in the alleged smuggling plot. With Rohner, they are at liberty under bonds of s5,0co each for trial in June. Rohner declared he had assurance from Mrs. Fischer that the boxes re- moved from the vessels contained nothing detrimental to the govern ment. He said the only articles he had taken to the raiders at the instance of Mrs. Fischer were some delicacies she sent friends aboard the craft, ana groceries ordered from his firm by officers of the interned ships for the crews, comprising $50 men.

MARRIAGE COSTS MORf NOW THAN

Legislature Hacked 50 Cents Onto the Cost of a
 License to Wed.
Old H. c. L. has hit Cupid rap!

Old H. c. l., has hit Cupid a rap!
 Marriage costs more now than ii did last week.
 Working thru the Arkansas legis- lature, with the state health depart- ment as co-conspirator, old H. c. l.. has succeeded in tacking 50 gents on to the price of a marriage license, a very necessary formality for one wno sets out to learn for himself whether it is true that two can live as cheaplv as one.
 County Clerk c. M. Nichol yester- day received notice from Dr. c. M Harrison, state health officer, that the legislature had enacted law re- quiring that marriages be register ed With the state registrar of vital sta tistics; that the county clerk is F. quired to report the issuance of ma"- riage license, and that the fee of go cents imposed by the statute for registration of the license is to be collected and forwarded by the coun- ty clerk.
 This will bring the cost of license to wed up to $3.
 Indignation meetings and protests dlC OuI oL tHS 4uSStIoD. llC AC w IL in effect, and those who insist on gambling in the greatest gambling game the world has ever known have no recourse but to put up the in creased ante or stay out of the game
 Births Registered.
 The legislature also amended the law enacted two years ago requirine that births be registered with the state registrar of vital statistics. The amendment provides fol the counties to pay the local reporters fee of 2 cents for each birth.
 The general assembly enacting the law in 1915 omitted to make provision for the payment Of the fee allowed for reporting birth, and there was no great activity in the way of reg istering the new arrivals. The last legislature put the cost on the coun- ty.
 This means that for every birth re- ported from Jefferson to the state registrar at Little Roc1, 9 cents will come out of the county treasury. this putting it up to the county judge te see that no energetic and imaginative reporter pads the rolls of arrivals from Storkdom.

WHAT is THE MOTIVE?

The legislature has spent consider
able time discussing a proposition to
divide the state. 1t is question that
seems to have originated and grown TO
its great proportions since the election
last fall for it is more than probable
that such thought did not exist In the
mind of a single voter at that time
What started it7 What motive is in
volved7 Even il every citizen of the
state were favorable to the proposition
it would be practically impossible to
accomplish the division. But, since
there is no public demand for the divi-
sion it looks as though the legislature
were hard put TO find excuse to put in
the fun time of the 60 days pay allow
ance and decided state division as
harmless a diversion as they could IN
iulge in.
