They were employed in the mines there. and were not permitted to leave when hostilities broke out. Ultimately food scarcity drove them to seek refuge in Holland, but they are in many cases even pro-German in their sympathies. In Rotterdam their wants are supplied by the Russian counsel
 The authorities now complain of the habits of the newcomers and the trouble they give the police with their street fights and the like, while a large number are said to be sufferers from diseases and there by constitute danger to the public health Moreover, the invasion still continues, and in the absence of further accommodation in Rotterdam some 5000 have been recently sent to the small neighboring town of Schiedem. where they are even more unwelcome. Efforts have been made to get the Russians shipped to Eng land. but the British government made regulations that are said to have amounted to . refusal to re-

 Swanson is goodnatured Swede who has been working at Treadwell for some time. He is quiet sort of fellow except when drinking.
 As the Indians will be coming back from fishing by the hundreds within the next few weeks and as they will have money in every pock- ct when they do come, the officials are expecting a revival of hootch peddling and will endeavor to make it a dangerous as we'll as expensive practice.

MATE ACCUSES. CAPTAIN
OF DELIBERATELY FIRING
WRECK OF CHURCHILL

District Attorney S. C. Huber has
secured the signed affidavit Of Fred
Wilson, second mate Of the schooner
Churchill, which was destroyed by
fire after it grounded on French Fri
gate shoals. Wilson charges Captain
Granzow with having deliberately fired
the vessel. .-...~: -... ....:
The affidavit says Wilson did not
see the captain fire the ship, but that
it was fired under such circumstances
as to lead him to believe Granzow was
responsible. He adds that the cap
tain went below decks and that, after
he came on deck, smoke began to pour
out of the matches. There was no one
below with the captain, the affidavit
adds. -
Wilson has also told the federal of:
ficials that, acting under instructions
from the captain, he cut hole in the
hatch. It is through this hole that
paraffine is believed toShave been
poured onto the .eopra in the hold and
later set on fire.
The mate, who has been held as a
witness, has been released from Gus
tody with the understanding that he
remain in the city.
William Miller, formerly member
of the crew of the ill-fated schooner
Churchill, was notified by Detective A.
E. Carter to report to the United
States marshal as witness. Miller
was taken from one of the steamers
now in port.

For number OF minutes the crack

sky was lighted up, showing the men
in the trenches ready to go "over the

as the men retreated, and finally the
Allies made bayonet charge, leaving
many men dead and wounded on the
field. The stretcher bearers were
