MOTHER HIDES DESERTER

The dramatic discovery of a soldier who decamped on the eve of being drafted to France was related at Not ingham Court the other day when the mans mother was charged with har- boring her son.
 After three weeks search the police gained admittance to the Woman's s house, which was guarded by a fero- ciOuS dog, loose inside. When she re- turned she stoutly denied that her son was there, despite the presence of his sweetheart In an attic a constable found big box provided with secret locks. It had two obvious keyholes. which were dummies. When the lid was forced the missing man sprang out.
 The case was adjourned, the mayor saying that if the woman had been stronger she would have had three months imprisonment.

The market here closed ner- vous, 31a to 101s net higher, with May at S2.S0 and July at s2.25A to s2.26 F
 Corn gained 1s to "A and oats fl to F. In provisions the outcome was a setback of five to fifty cents.
 Scarcity of contract wheat for imme- diate delivery in Chicago was empha- sized by the payment of s2.14 bushel, the topmost price on record. May op- tions also reached the highest point ever known, s2.S0, and at the end of the day were still holding that figure. The top notch was attained on the purchase of 500,000 bushels of May.
 Corn rose with wheat. Cash corn as well as cash wheat touched a new record high level, number two white corn bringing as much as S1.65% a bushel. Oats hardened with other grains. Subsistence of peace talk weak

CREEL CENSORSHIP TOBE
CONTINUED FOR PRESENT
Secretary Baker Opposed to Change
at This Time and Urges
Further Test.

Notwithstanding criticism by army
ana naval officers and newspaper men
OF the system of press censorship es-
tablished by 1.-The Creel committee of
public Information. It has been decided
by the administration to continue IL for
the present in lieu of something better
Secretary Baker has received state
ment on the subject from the general
stan section of the Army War College,
suggesting that military censorship be
placed in the hands Of military ex-
perts and absolutely divorced from gov
eminent publicity work
Mr.. Baker is opposed to a change in
the system at this time. He Is disposed
20 retain the present system and to
try out new set OF rules which Mr..
Creel made public today after consul
tation with the War and Navy depart
ments.
Secretary Baker asked the news
papers to be charitable while these new
rules were being tried. Mr.. Baker
seemed to think that these rules had
been made sufficiently plain by this
time to preclude the possibility Of mis-
takes being made either by the news
papers themselves or by the Creel bu-
reau.

TWO CARMEN SLASHED
BY RAZOR WlELDERS
Colored Passengers Cut Conductor
and Motorman, and Then Make
Good Escape.

Arthur Raymond Pilkerton, twenty-one
years old, a street car conductor on the
Anacostia line, last night about IL o'clock
was knocked from his car and slashed
across the back and back Of his neck by
a young colored man who was a passen-
ger on the car. He had his wounds
dressed at Providence Hospital and then
reported the affair to the police Of the
fifth precinct.
It appears that Pilkerton was accused
by the colored passenger Of failing to
give him change for a quarter, the con-
ductor claiming the passenger had given
him a nickel. The car was near I'd and
E streets southeast when the trouble oc-
CURED. Before the conductor could take
hold of the fighting passenger the latter
started west OF E street and quickly dis
appeared.
Three young colored men were arrested
by the police Of the fifth precinct There
was no testimony to connect them with
the fight, however. and they were released
mont street.
About thirty minutes later Frank F.
Redmond, motorman on the Anacostia
line, whose home is at 1916 W street, An
acostia, was cut across the face with a
razor by an unidentified colored man at
Maryland avenue and Al street south
west The conductor on the car had
trouble with a colored passenger, the DO
lice were told. and when the motornan
went to his assistance he was slashed with
a razor.
Redmond was taken to Emergency Hos
pital by friends. Police of the fourth pre-
cinct investigated the affair, but did not
succeed in apprehending the motorman.s
assailant.
