Schooner Captured
By U. s. Destroyers

San Diego, Cal, April ll.-A mum.
tions-carrying schooner bound for a
Mexican west coast port was fired
upon and captured by two United
States torpedo boat destroyers, it was
learned here tonight from authorita-

at the vessel when it attempted to
escape, it is said, and the ship was
then beached. Several thousand
rounds of rife and machine gun am
rnunition, it was stated, was taken
aboard the destroyers and landed at a
Pacific coast port.
1t is known that the destroyers have
been scouting for a supposed NUM-
tons smuggling ship for more than a
week. Monday, according to reports,
the patrol boats sighted the schooner,
which was south bound off the coast
of California and following course
inshore. The warships gave chase
and when the captain of the schooner
eaw that capture was inevitable he is
reported to have attempted to destroy
his vessel
Refusing to heed signal calls tc
stop, the skipper steered for shore and
beached the schooner. Five shots, the
report says, were fired at the ship be-
fore it piled up on the beach. The
IDENTITY of the captain and crew OF
the schooner has not been revealed

HUMPBACKED MULE
IN PANIC AT BLAZE
Refuses to Be Rescued and
Has to Be Carried From
Merchants Express Barn.
100 HORSES ENDANGERED

A humpbacked mule, terrorized by
the fre>at the Omaha Merchants EN-
press company, Fourteenth and Leav-
enworth streets early last evening,
greatly impeded volunteers in the saw
ing of 100 horses. After being
started to safety, the mule lay down
on the floor several times and finally
had to be carried out.
The fire is supposed to have started
in a wagon on the first floor filled
with wall paper. The horses were on
the second floor. When it was dis
covered, the entire barn was filled
with smoke. Three alarms were turn
ed in.
Lead Horses Out.
Before fire departments had ar
rived, a volunteer force of nearly
fifty men were already leading the
frantic horses to safety. A number
of the panic stricken animals bolted
back into the smoke-hlled barn and
were recaptured and brought out only
after sacks had been thrown over
their heads.
Charles Gernandt, fireman from
truck No. /, Nineteenth and Harvey
streets, was kicked by horse in the
left leg above the knee, while leading
one of the horses. He was attended
by Police Surgeon Nigro.
The fire loss was small and the
horses were returned to their stalls as
soon as the smoke had cleared from
the barn.

raising a military company. The most
active part is being taken by John

yates of the Omaha High school. As
these students have all had four years

them to raise the company of soldiers.
The company will contain several
former officers of the high school
regiment. John Talliaferro and Eu-
gene Simmons held the offices Of cap
tain; Reed Zimmerman was a major
and John Jenkins had a staff Office.
There are enough minor officers to
supply all corporals, sergeants and
lieutenants. No definite work has been
done as to drills and other details.
The company will have its own
signal corps and hospital corps in ad-
dition to its engineering forces, In
the company there will be electricians,
chemists, doctors, surveyors and
mathematician, as well as many
other branches.

CREDITORS HELD OFF
Eli UIamperl Placed in the Hands of
a Receiver.

Judge John C. Pollock of the fed
eral district court has named John w.
Newell of the law firm of Newell &
Wallace, as receiver for the Eli Ulam-
perl. Dry Goods company. Bank
ruptcy proceedings against the Ulam-
perl company were instituted by cred
ftors month ago and hearings have
been in progress. Newell will take
charge of the stock at 419-421 Kansas
avenue and dispose of it. The store
will be closed, probably today. The
appointment of a receiver will hold up
all the numerous suits instituted
against Ulamperl in the court of To-
peka by creditors, also the ejectment
suit filed Thursday by the owner of
the building occupied by the store.
The store has been invoiced but Mr.
Newell declined today to make a state
ment of the exact value of the stock
The inventory of the fixtures and book
accounts has not been completed. The
Ulamperl hearing will be held in the
federal court next week at Kansas
City.
UlamperPs creditors charged that
Ulamperl had been shipping out guam
titles of goods and that he had been
selling to local concerns at less than
cost. Newell, the receiver, stated that
the detectives at work on the case did
not understand that the store did a
wholesale business, which would ac-
count for the outside shipments He
also stated that the charges of sales
in Topeka at less than cost had been
d1SproVed by testimony of purchasers

CREEKS PREPARE.
Moves at Capital Indicate Des-
perate Stroke at Hand.
Reservists Being Secretly En-
rolled and Equipped.

London, Jan. 6.-News dispatches
from Athens depict the situation there
as threatening for the entente and as
sert that power is passing into the
hands of the reservists who are ex-
pected to break out again as they did
on December 1.
Most of these dispatches have ar
rived by way of Syria and are more
than a week old but the Morning
Posts correspondent, under date of
January 3, claims that the position in
the Greek capital then was such as to
indicate that the Athens governm ent
is meditating some desperate stroke.
The reservists are being secretly en-
rolled and notified to hold themselves
in readiness to join specified regiments
at an hours notice, the correspondent
reports, while measures regarding ar
tillery and munitions are being extern
siVely taken.
No Help From Teutons.
London, Jan. GA dispatch to the
Times from Piraeus, dated December
81, says that the real key to the situa-
ton in Greece is the military position
in Macedonia.
According to this story, King Con-
stantine has received discouraging
news from beyond Monastir to the
effect that Field Marshal Won Mack
ensen considered it impossible to move
on Monastir before another two
months at the earliest
The Greek government realizes
therefore says the dispatch, that il
it broke with the entente it would have
to support the struggle alone.

atty case from Arkansas City In
their finding, the court gives GIBSON
LAWYERS five days in which to perfect
an appeal to the supreme court of the
United States.

from the office of mayor of Arkansas
City under finding of the court to
the effect that promises OF ofrlce by
himself and supporters constituted
bribery under the spirit of the Kansas
election law. Gibson sent popular
petitions to the court in an effort to
secure a new trial, but the court to-
day denied the application for a re-
hearing and held that Hunt should
hold the job to which Gibson was
elected by ten votes on the face of the
returns.
Law Is Not for Policemen.
The Kansas workingmen's compen-
sation law does not apply to policemen
killed in the discharge of their du-
ties. This is a ruling of the Kansas
supreme court today in the suit of
Kinda Griswold against the city of
Wichita.
Frank Griswold was a captain of
police and was killed by a burglar.
His widow brought suit for $500 I'M
der the workingmen's compensation
act. If he had been a workman in a
factory at the same compensation, the
widow would have been entitled to
this amount. The supreme court af-
firmed the decision >of the district

that a police officer is not a workman

SPURNED LOVE FATAL
Rejected Swain Lays i'm Wait and Stays
Girl He Loved.

Chicago, Jan. 6.-Joseph Soboj did
not understand that a custom in Po-
land that the principal attendants of
bridal couple at a wedding will them
selves be bride and bridegroom at an
early date is not necessarily a custom
in Chicago. Consequently Miss Celia
Rudon is dead and Soboj is held by the
police on a charge of killing her.
Miss Rudon, who was 81 years old,
was bridesmaid at a. Polish wedding
six months ago at which Soboj was
best man. Subsequently he proposed
matrimony. Her refusal cost her her
life The rejected best man hid near
her home today and shot her as she
passed, the police said.
