NEUTRALS FAIL TO

Switzerland Declines to Break With

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Informa-
ton that Switzerland will not adopt
President Wilson's suggestion, that
In the interest Of world peace other
neutrals follow the lead of the United
States and break off diplomatic rela-
tions with Germany, was received
here today. So far as is known this
IS the first response.
SPANS taking over of American
interests in Germany and Switzer-
lands similar action for German in
terests here are interpreted as re-
moving both those neutrals from par
ticipation in the break in relations.
Spain is the largest neutral now
free from ENHANCEMENT in the world
war and is by far the best equipped
automatically to serve as an inter
mediary between the belligerent
groups. The practical certainty that
an American break with Austria also
cannot be avoided makes it more de-
sirable than ever that Spain should
remain outside the struggle.

u. S. SUPREME COURT
TO GET BABY CASE
Widow of Rich Elderly Man Insists
Child Is Hers and Not That of
Canadian Girls.

The United States supreme court
is to assume the role of Solomon. 1t
will decide who is the mother of
Baby Irene" the maternity of whom
is claimed both by Miss Margaret Ry-
an, Canadian girl, and Mrs. Dollie
Ledgerwood Matters Of Chicago, wild
ow of Fred Matters, who was a
wealthy real estate owner well along
in years.
Following his decision which
awarded "Baby Irene" to the Cana
dian girl, recently, Federal Judge
Lands in Chicago the other day
granted an appeal to the supreme
court at the request of Mrs. Matters
attorney. The judge did not do so,
however, without expressing the
opinion that "dirty work was going on
some place"
1t has been commended that if she
her claim to "Baby Irene"
Mrs. Matters would receive a much
larger sum from the Matters estate
than the widows dover. At the first
hearing the child was awarded to the
Canadian girl on the ground that the
baby had been taken from her while
she was in coma in a Canadian hos
pital and given to Mrs. Matters, who
had taken a room at the institution
under arrangements of a previously
constructed plot.

LAW RAN HIM DOWN
AFTER TEN LONG YEARS
ESCAPED CONVICT GAINED RE-
sPECT OF SOCIETY, WAS
HONoRED BY OFFICE.

After striving for ten years to re-
establish himself as a respectable
member of society, Kennel Kabat, es-
capped convict, has just been returned
to the state prison of Minnesota to
complete a life sentence for murder.
So successful were his efforts to
become good citizen that, under the
name, of william Goes" he twice
obtained nomination for the state
legislature and held the respect of
the community around Austin, where
he lived.
The crime for which Kabat was
convicted occurred in 1906. The farm
house of G. Mccarthy was burned
and bones were found in the ruins.
AS the farmer was not seen again.
the authorities concluded that he had
been murdered Kabat, who was en-
ployed on the farm, was arrested,
charged with the crime and sentenced
to life imprisonment.
Scaled Prison Walls.
Shortly after entering prison, ac-
cording to the story Kabat told the
police he scaled the walls and escaped
in an automobile which was waiting
for him outside Immediately, he
said, he began search for Mccarthy.
who, he declares, still lives. His
search carried him into Mexico.
South America and remote parts of
the United States. Unsuccessful in
his quest, he went to Austin less
than two years ago and established
a tailor shop
Later he was employed in a pack
ing house But one day the son of
the owner, glancing through an old
pamphlet Of "Men Wanted" recog-
nized Kabat's photograph as the pic
ture of "William Coles" He notified
the police and Kabat again was ar
rested.
