Woods Gets Trouble For
Which He Sought
SCALP IS LAID OPEN
Alleged Fight At Davidson's Rarn
Brings A SingIe-Tree Into Use
As A Weapon OF offense

With the blood flowing profusely
from his head, Ed Woods of this city
was taken to the Office of a local ply
sician Friday evening about O'clock.
the wounds on his scalp being the re-
suit Of an alleged fight at the barn or
Truman Davidson on South Mulberry
street. Woods was intoxicated.
II is said that Woods arrived at
theAbarn early in the evening and was
intoxicated The story goes that he
threatened the members of a group
that was at the barn, going SO far an
to chase one man up the street a lit-
tie way, where he was only stopped
by his intended victims banging a,
loose single-tree over his head. This
seemed to feaze him little. Neverthe-
less. Woods was quiet for some time
Later, however, he again started HIS
unseemly conduct, says one of tha
party. Woods was told to end his
foolishness, but he continued to both
er the men !n the barn, it is claimed.
Finally becoming engaged in fight.
Woods was struck over the head with
heavy wrench. The cuts started to
bleed profusely. Consequently, ha
was removed by several of the men
to the Office of a local physician
where the wounds were dressed.
AS far as is known at the present
time, nothing serious will be the re-
suit of the attack on Woods with the
wrench. There are several long
gashes in his scalp that penetrated to
the skull, but no injury was discov-
cred which would warrant any undue
anxiety.
1t is thought that Woods will recoV-
er quickly. No arrests were made

Late Developments.
Washington, Feb. 10.-If Germany
compels the use of force to safeguard
American lives and right, it is learn
ed authoritatively that in the event
President Wilson goes before con.
gress it will not be to ask for dec
laration OF war, but to follow lter-
ally the words Of the address IN
which he announced the break of dip
lomatic relations, and request author
ity to use means deemed necessary
to protect American seamen and peo-
pie.
The president, 1t was said, is as
anxious as ever TO avoid war with
Germany, but also is as determined
as ever that American citizens and
ships shall be free to travel the high
seas unmolested. His next step. il
tal'en. will be to enforce that right.
and even then the issue Of war or
peace will be with Germany. Amy
hostile action will have to come in
the form of an interference with an
American right.
Details Of the governments plans
are not discussed. 1t is known, how
ever. the conveying and arming Of
merchant ships are being considered.
After the cabinet meeting II was
authoritatively stated that nothing
mad yet happened to change tie
course pursued by the government
since the break in relations with Ger
many. The cumulative effect of re-
ports Of vessels sunk by German sub
marines, collected by the state depart
ment, however, has been to make OFF,
cials certain that Germany is indeed
proceeding with her proclaimed pol
icy Of ruthlessness.
TIE effect of the tying up of ships
In American harbors because of fear
that they win be sunk If they pass
through the war zone is one of the
questions being given careful consid-
Grafton. So far as could be learned
there have teen no reports to the gov.
ernment OF serious consequences to
industries, but such reports are ex-
pected and the enforced idleness Of
