Now, say that inall this cannot hold myself
in the least to blame but if had handled Bolo
Pasha's $l700000, the house Of Morgan did and
if had distributed this money in the way the house
of Morgan did, and for the purposes injurious to
France, for which Bolo Pasha is accused of having
employed it, then would hold myself very much to
blame for not having made proper investigation at
the proper time of the source and purpose of such
an amount of money.

Mr. Morgan did all of them, and as I had no asso-

Los Angeles, Cal, Oct. 5-Onc by one the false
hoods and malicious ISLANDERS in Attorney General
Lewis statements are being punctured and proven
untrue !.
One by he is retracting his false state
ments or claiming that he misquotcd by the
newspapers, the refuge of most rascals The false
statements and malicious nsinuations were pub
lished, nevertheless, and have not departed from
my determination to sue the whole lot of scurrilous
newspapers and unscrupulous politicians and find
in court who really responsible for this conspiracy
to defame, and what particular big blackguard is
back of the whole scheme.
1t appears first, that Captain Boy-Ed was not
at the Bolo Pasha dinner Attorney General Lewis
declares that he never said that Captain Boy-Ed
at the dinner-that he was cruelty msquoted
by wicked newspapers
1t appears next that Won Papen was not at the
dinner. Attorney General Lewis retracts again and
again lays the blame on the newspapers.
1t develops that Boy-Ed and Won Papen were
not even in America at the time. There is an old
which says, "a liar should have a good mem
ory." The Plunderbund should select their liars
with more regard to their memories.
1t finally appears who really were at the dinner.
1, myself, did not feel at liberty to make known
the of the guests and drag innocent private
people into this outrageous Of newspaper
jealousy and political chicanery.
But since the newspapers have now published

The guests were Mr.. Van Anda managing
editor of the New York Times, and Mrs. Van Anda;
Mr.. Julian Gerard, brother of Ambassador Gerard,

GERS have not made any complaints as

soldiers, the question is different. We
know that the Turkish soldiers are
subjected to the same regime; they are
content with very little, endure the
greatest priyations and are accustom-
ed to the smallest amount of nourish-
ment The Europeans, principally
those coming from Kut, have been so
weakened by the marches across the
desert that one can understand their
restoration to health would be rendered
difficult by an insufficient diet. When,
as at Alum Karahissar, they have to
work, their strength is taxed to an eX-
tent which is not in proportion with
their power of resistance. This implies

3RITISH MONITORS PLAYED
IMPORTANT PART AT TRIESTE

GRADO Gulf of Trieste, June 3d.
British monitors played an important
part in the Italian advance upon
Trieste. They took up positions mid
way up the gulf where their guns
could bear upon the aeroplane hang
ers and the multifarious military es
adjustments which surround Presecco
and Contovello, twin villages upon the
main road and railway to Trieste, both
constituting important depots for the
Austrian air service and general sup
plies.
When the first gun spoke great
she'll went hooting into the distance
and an Italian scouting hydroplane
duly marked it it down upon the rail
way line south of Prosecco. The sec
end shot landed little north of the
first, hitting the railway again at a
point where a Trieste-bound train
was passing. The train vanished in
ruin.
Then other monitors arrived at Their
stations. and the bombardment con-
tinued in a tremendous, measured
rhythm Each monitor fired two hours.
They smashed the hangers, fattened
the railway station of Prosecc0. de
stroyed the railway yiaduct, and pro
duced a great fire near Contovello
whose peak Of bright fame was visible
out into the gulf.

STATE MONOPOLY ON
TOBACCO IN SWEDEN

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, June 30
Sweden's receipts from the increased
tobacco taxes of 1916, which the king
doms budget commission had estimat-
ed at 100000 crowns when the tax
was laid, amounted to 100000
crowns. Part of this sum was secur-
e1 by the elimination of wholesale
dealers, the state monopoly now sell
ing direct to retailers. Prices We're
increased sharply few months ago
particularly for cigarettes, which now
cost on the average 100 per cent more
than is asked for the same brands in
Germany.
