Dynamite Cache Found
Under Northern Pacific
Bridge Near Killde er

"Where did you get that dynamite?
asked the elevator man at Kildeer OF
his 6,year-old son last Friday evening
"Under the bridge over there" was
the reply of the little fellow, who, with
his sister, had come home carrying
a huge stick of the explosive.
Investigation was Immediately
made, and. 20 sticks of dynamite were
found shallowly buried under the end
of the bridge. The local roadmaster
has not completed his investigation
but is inclined to believe that no plot
is involved. A crew blasting ice last
winter in all probability stored the
material and later overlooked it. i.

MAIL FROM GERMANY
TAKEN TO ARGENTINA
BY DUTCH STEAMER

Buenos Aires, March S.-The Dutch
steamer Amsteland arrived here to-
day bringing quantities of securities
and mail from Germany.
The Argentine government permit
ted delivery of the securities, but seiz-
ed ell the German mail, on the ground
that 1t was not stamped and postage
prepaid.
Local agents of the Amsteland said
the vessel would probably intern here
rather than run the risk of seizure by
allied patrol vessels in the south At
lantic in retaliation for her aid rem
dered Germany.
Argentine newspapers today contin-
ued their comment on the Mexican
Japanese German plot revealed by
President Wilson. Officialdom does
not question President Wilson's good
faith, but leading Argentines as well
as practically all officials are well nigh
united in the belief that the thinner
mann document cannot be authentic
They hold that Mexico was known to
be proof against German intrigue.

EXPRESSION OF
NDSHIP ON
PART OF JAPAN
Newspapers Urged to Re-
frain From Inflammatory
Comment on Anti Japan
ese Bills in Oregon and
Idaho.

Toxic, March s.-Kijuro Shidehara,
vice foreign minister, told the Asso-
ciated Press today that Japan was sur
prised to hear of the German proposal,
He branded 1t ridiculous and said
Japan would remain faithful to ner
allies.
Shidehara's statement supplements
the official government statement de-
livered through Foreign Minister Mo-
tono declaring that Japan received no
proposition from Mexico or Germany.
Shidehara said he especially re-
quested newspapers to refrain from in
flammatory comment on the anti-Jap-
anese measures in oregon and Idaho,
advising that the matter be left for
treatment through diplomatic channels.
LANSING DOES ALL HE CAN.
1t was noticeable that the present
agitation did not approach that OF the
time when the matter was brought up
in California, and 1t was doubtful If
the masses of people were cognizant
of the Oregon and Idaho bills. He said
Japan was convinced Secretary Lam
sing had done everything possible to
prevent the passage OF the measures.
I'VE realize the embarrassment Of
the central government owing to the
system of state rights, but we are
duty bound to protect the dignity,
honor and interests of Japanese sub
jects," he said.

Such course he said merely defensive measure
