THE NAVY JUNIORS
PRESENT SIXTEEN DOLLARS
To Mrs. BIodgett For Kits To Be Sen
Colonel Doyen's Boys

The Navy Juniors presented to Mrs.
Blodgett for the kits to be sent to
Colonel Doyen's boys sixteen dollars.
This was the result of their garden
party held on Saturday afternoon at
67 College avenue.
The little folks had been untiring
in working out their program. One
of the youngest Juniors, happy little
girl residing on College Avenue, as
sumed alone the larger part of the
publicity management; making in
the Naval Academy house to house
canvas IN the interest of the party
The occasion was not only finan-
cial success, but those walking up
College Avenue on that afternoon wit
messed lovely stage setting of green
sward and high hedges and groups of
white frocked children at play There
were also tables groaning under cakes
so rich Mr. Hoover might have drawn
wry face. There were ice cream
cones packed full and overfowing.
And last, but not least, there was
magic flower bed where pink and
white tulips blossomed on beautiful
long stems quite out of season for
them. Over this magic flower bed
little lad was the high and mighty
magician who enticed you to pluck
blossom and to find buried deep in its
heart magic number which con-
ferred a gift from Somewhere In An
napolis."

den will not be treated unjustIy. the
detectives returned to Annapolis to-
day and are endeavoring to find other
evidence which may lead to other
channels. While firmly convinced

no desire to see him prosecuted If
there remains any doubt as to his
guilt.
Her Delay Explained.
Mrs Murray. who gave the first
clues, when asked last night why she
had not ventured to give the informa-
tion to the police at once, explained
that she as well as the negresses
feared that they might expose them
selves to the vengeance of the man
whom they incriminated possibly be-
fore an arrest could be made.
There was more or less talk among
number of persons here last night
as TO why the accused negro should
have been taken to Baltimore as a
precautionary measure against pos
sible mob violence. 1t was argued
that the county officials in the last
few years spent some $4,000 in build
ing the new brick Jail on Calvert
street which is supposed to be abso-
lutely secure against an attack by
mob bent on vengeance.

The movement spread to rails, Read ing, New York Central, St. Paul and Missouri Pacific dealing pressure.
 On very moderate offerings. except United States Steel the market contin- ued to sag at the leaders as well as specuatives issues extending initial losses. Extreme decline of 1-4 points was caused by reverse in steels, shipping and some of the high priced specialties and utilities. Local trad CTS held off pending more definite de- velopments in the international situa- tion. Bonds were heavy.
 Liquidation ceased for 8 time in the early afternoon and prominent indus trials rallied point or more. The improvement proved to be only tenn porary, however, United States Steel and other leaders falling back again on comparatively light selling.
