Eleven Mexcans Only Survivors of Once Large Colony
Last Four Men Set Out in Rowboat to Get Aid

colony for the purpose about 1905. The
Mexican government gave it official
sanction, maintaining a small garrison
on the island. For a number of years
past the commanding officer was Cap.
tain Ramon De Arnaud, Of the Mexican
army, apparently a highly educated
trained officer. In 1908 he took his
bride with him. Communication with
the mainland was maintained fairly reg.
ularly until 1914. Early in 1914 Cap.
tain De Arnaud, with his wife and chill
dren, arrived on the island for the last
time. The vessel that carried them there
was the last supply ship to visit the ISL
and. A short time afterward the Amer
lean schooner Nokomis was wrecked on
the island. A boat with four of her
crew reached Acapulco and acquainted
the world with her mishaps.
Castaways Are Rescued
"The United States steamship Cleve-
land visited the island in June, 1914,
to bring away the remainder Of the
crew of the Nokomis, which included
the captains wife and two children.
Captain De Arnaud sent away by
the Cleveland the only employe Of the
company, Gustav Schulz, with his wife
and child, with the belief that Schulz
had lost his mind. No one else left by
the Cleveland as at that time there
was no apprehension of disaster. The
Cleveland was the last ship that visited
the island until the American warship
came.
an May Captain De Arnaud, in a
desperate effort to obtain relief, left
the island in a small rowboat with the
only three men able to pull an oar.
They have never been heard of since.
Weakened as they were by scurvy and
unable to carry adequate supplies, they
undoubtedly persisted at sea.
Scuryy Is Checked
when the number left alive had
been reduced to within the available
supply of cocoanuts the ravages Of
scurvy were checked. At the time of
the American warship'sl arrival the
above persons were the only survivors.
For more than two years they had
subsisted on the flesh and eggs of the
gannets and gulls, varied by few fish
and chickens. They had no way Of
killing the pigs, which had a precari-
Gus existence themselves. They had
one cocoanut n week for the entire
eleven to ward off scurvy. Considering
their food supply they were in re-
markedly good health.
"Ihe officers and crew voluntarily
raised fund of 5000 for the relief Of
these people, which has been intrusted
TO Mr.. Wiseman for distribution
among them as their necessities may
require"

Bullock Says Reynolds
Aided Courthouse Sale
Director Declares "Secret Mem.
orandum" Connects Former
Senator With Transaction

In a statement issued yesterday,
William Bullock, director of Tam
many's Bureau of City Inquiry, at
tempts to connect ex-senator William
H. Reynolds, Mayor Mitchel's friend,
with the purchase by the city of the
site for the new county courthouse.
Mr.. Bullock made public an alleged
"secret memorandum" which bears the
title of "He who runs may read" and
has reference to the additional land
and buildings acquired by the city
for the courthouse site. Mandatory acts
of the Legislature provided for the
original site at an initial expense of
S6,l3S,653 The Board of Estimate
later decided to purchase other prop
erty, including the Hallenbeck Build
ing, at an added expense Of S5,l52,812.
The so-called secret memorandum
apparently reveals nothing new in re-
gard to the plans of the municipal
authorities to acquire the additional
property. It states that the fOunda-
tions Of the proposed courthouse could
not be built without materially injur-
ing the Hallenbeck Building and prob
ably involving the city in damage suits
amounting TO millions of dollars, and
sets forth other reasons, all of which
were known during the discussion OF
the matter before the Board of Esti-
mate, Why the city should acquire the
Hallenbeck Building.
Referring TO the memorandum, how
ever, Mr. Bullock said:
81 have personally made examination
of originals and copies of letters max
ing appointments between Reynolds
and an agent of the Hallenbeck inter
ests. Heretofore Reynolds has not
been mentioned in connection with the
second site purchase. But the state
ment has been made to me, in support
of the secret memorandum and the let
ters I examined, that he held repeated

the De Saulles murder"
Mrs. De Saulles's condition continues
to improve. DR.. Guy F. Cleghorn, the
Jail physician, under whose care she is
visited her again to-day, and character
lied the state of her health as "en-
couraging."
Early this morning a group of re-
ligious workers held services in the
jail corridors. They paused just out
side the door of the room Mrs. De
Saulles occupies and sang my Faith
Looks Up to Thee" Mrs. De Saulles
however, showed no interest in the
services.
There was a clutter of motor cars all
day long in front Of the Nassau County
jail. Hundreds of motorists turned off
the main roads that pass through
Mineola and detoured TO the rear of
the Jail. Among them was the aged
Major Arthur b. De Saulles, father Of
the murdered man. The majors car
slowed down as il passed the Jail early
this afternoon, ami he stared curiously
up at the cell windows But he did not
stop.
Little Jack is expected to visit his
mother again tomorrow afternoon.

80 War Zone Bars Closed
Injunction Allows One in Pro-
scribed Area to Keep Open

One of the forty liquor sellers in the
vicinity Of the Morse Drydocks, Brook
lyn, whose places were closed by the
State Excise Department, obtained a
temporary injunction restraining the
department from further interference,
but Captain Dillon, of the Fourth Ave
nue. police station, served notice on the
others yesterday that thirty-nine more
injunctions or an all-inclusive docu-
ment would have TO be issued before
they could open up.
Arrests have been made in several in
stances where the proprietors relied
upon Justice Cropsey's ruling that the
law under which the Excise Depart
ment acted WAS unconstitutional. II is
thought that no more attempts TO sell
liquor within the prescribed territory
will be made until the vendors are spe-
cifeally protected by the court.

Superintendent Travis Receives

The letter follows:
Frankfort, KY, June Is, 1917.
Supt. L. Jeffrey Travis,
Marion, Ky.
Ny dear Superintendent:
have read and carefully con.
sidered copy of the contract
made and entered into by the
County Board Of Education of
Crittenden county and the Board
Of Trustees Of the Marion School
District.
This contract is made in ac-
cordance With the provisions Of
the State Law permitting con.
tracts of this type. 1t sets forth
clearly the terms Of the contract,
the privileges and responsible
ties of both Boards of Education,
plans for establishing and main
tanning said joint high school.
together with plans for election
of superintendent and teachers,
maintaining discipline in the
school, providing for the type
OF work to be done therein, and
all other things required by law
to make the contract legal. |
am familiar in a general way
with high school conditions IN
your county and am still of the
opinion this joint high school is
the very best solution of the
high school problem, both for
the county and city.
Cooperation between the
country and town is advisable at
all times. 1t is esp cially so in
school conditions when neither
country or town could maintain,
without great expense, separate
institutions of standard grade.
BY this arrangement, high school
pupils from the country will
have the advantage Of attending
a combined high school of stand.

the contract, offers subject mat
ter of real interest to country
students who expect to live in
the country after graduation
from the school. The subject
matter is also extensive enough
