Water For poultrv

Give fresh and clean water to the
fowls several times day and especial
ly let the first drink In the morning be
clean water. Water standing over
night during warm weather Is liable to
be full OF dust, poison and parasites.
These are not good for chickens,
Fowls should have all the pure water
they can drink. for they drink n great
deal in warm weather. and when fresh
water is not furnished TO them they
are apt to drink any foul water they
may come across. This Is bound to

WITNESS IN HINDO0
TRIAL WONT TESTIFY
(By Review Leased Wire)

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 27. - The
trial here of "a persons charged with
having conspired to foment an up
rising against British rule in India
was marked today by the refusal to
testify of one Of the governments
star witnesses and completion of the
cross examination OF another witness
who, the prosecution contends, was q
go-between for the principals in the
alleged plot. The witness who re
fused to testify was Jodh Singh, who
appeared for the prosecution in Hin
du plot trials in British Indian and
Chicago.
When Jodh Singh declined to testi
fv. thereby changing his status from
witness to a defendant on trial, and
was arraigned on and pleaded guilty
to a charge of conspiracy, Hindu de
PENDANTS in court created a oommo'
ton with their cries of citation and
encouragement.
Jodh later attempted to change his
plea to not guilty on the ground that
in the emotional stress of the moment
and while under a misrepresentation
he had entered the opposite pea. me
court continued his case until Satur-
day, when he will be given an oppor-
tunity to show that he was not aware
of his legal rights when he entered

Kumud Nath Moekerjee. an attor'
ney of Bangkok, Siam, testified he
had been paid to convey a mes
sage from Bangkok to unidentified
persons in Calcutta on a certain date,
and that the recipients of the mes
sages were ready to receive the ships
cargo of arms and ammunition.
The witness also declared he had
been told that five ships similarly
loaded were to land simultaneously at
different points on the coast of India,
and that he had pointed out these
places on a map to German consular
officer.

NEGRO FUGITIVE SURRENDERS
TO GOVERNMENT OFFICERS
(Py Review Leased Wire. }

BOSTON, Nov. 27.-John Johnson,
the West Virginia negro whom Cover
nor Mccall last week declined to sur.
render to the authorities OF that state
on extradition papers, gave himself
up to the federal authorities today and
was held for hearing December 5th
on complaint charging him with be-
ing a fugitive from justice. His coun-
sci, William H. Lewis, formerly Uni
ted States assistant attorney general
announced that the case would be
fought to finish. Bail of $4,000 was
furnished by the pastor and treasurer
of Cambridge church.
The indictment against Johnson, re.
turned by federal grand jury in West
Virginia, charges violation of the
Mann white slave act through the
transportation of Edith Cooley, a
white girl, from Charleston. w. Va,
to Cattlesburg, KY. in November, 1916
for alleged immoral purposes. In the
extradition proceedings on which the
governor acted last week, Johnson
was charged with assault on a child.

Cabinet WOULD
CONTROL R. R. IF
POOLING FAILS
by Review Leased wire.)

WASHINGTON. Nov. 27.-The rail
road problem was discussed at length
at today's cabinet meeting. After
ward it was said that government op-
Grafton of railroads during the war
will be attempted only if it becomes
certain the roads themselves are I'M
able te deal with difficulties that
confront them.
The general belief among the admin
istration officials is that the pooling
plan about to be inaugurated by the
roads should be given thorough try
out and that if it fails the government
then should take a hand. There is
some doubt. however. that any pooling
plan will work as well as it might so
long as each road is compelled to con-
Germ itself with it's individual profits.
Since congestion and coal distribu-
ton are linked so closely. officials are
watching a movement towards the pool
ing of coal shipments in the middle
west If the plan works well it will
be extended with government encour-
agement to other districts. Govern
ment requisitioning of coal and a gen
eral government coal pool are consid-
cred likely next year. At the present
there is a disposition to let contracts
run cht before government pool is
formed.
The committee of railroad heads
named here yesterday by the railroad
war board to direct operation of the
railroad pool will hold its first meet
ing tomorrow in Pittsburg. Fairfax
Harrison, chairman of the war board,
today blamed much of the freight con-
gesticn in the east TO routine priority
orders issued by government depart
ments
In the country as whole, Mr.. Har-
rison said congestion is not so severe.
Reports from the west" he added
SHOW no serious congestion and that
the railroads are handling the traffic
in as satisfactory a manner as could
be expected in view of the large vol
ume. They are unable to furnish all
the cars asked for. but this is largely
due to the detention of cars in eastern
territory. In the southeast the roads
could handle a still larger business"

Sinking of Ship
Is Graphically
TOIdby Witness

LONDON, Nov. 27.-The full story
stroyers Strongbow and Mary Rose by
German cruisers on October 16 was
first told by Sir Eric Geddes, the
first lord of the admiralty, in speech
to the house of commons. AS he said
these destroyers upheld. the highest
traditions of the navy by attacking
ships of far greater strength, and fight.
ing to the last Sir Eric said:
ION October 16 the two destroyers
Strongbow and Mary Rose, with three
small but armed vessels, only one OF
which was fitted with a wireless, es-
corted convoy of II ships bound for
the Shetland Islands from Norway.
During the night one of the three
smaller armed vessels-the one which
was fitted with wireless-dropped back
to screen a ship of the convoy which
had to stop owing to her cargo having
shifted.
"The convoy was then accompanied
by the destroyers Strongbow and
Mary Rose, both of which had wire
less installation, as well as by two
other small craft which were not fit
ted. About 6 a. m. on the 18th, just
as day was breaking, the iStrongbow
sighted two ships to the southwark
which were closing fast. Visibility was
about two miles, and Strongbow, hav-
ing challenged and received an unsat-
isfactory answer, at once gave orders
for action.
'The enemy's first shot wrecked her
wireless room and did other damage,
and in spite of the great gallantry with
which she was fought by her captain,
officers and crew, she was sunk.
The other destroyer. Mary Rose,
was Immediately attacked by the two
German vessels and blown up by a
shot in her magazine.
"The two enemy vessels-which
later detailed reports show were of a
very fast cruiser class-then proceed
ed to attack the vessels of the con-
voy. sinking nine of them.
Owing to the fact that the escort
vessel which was fitted with wireless
had been detached, and owing to
Mary Rose being sunk Immediately
and Strongbow's wireless being put
outof action by the first shot, no mes
sage reached the admiral command
ing the Orkneys, and the commander
in-chief of the grand fleet, or the ad-
miralty, that the convoy had been at
tackled until the surviving ships ar
rived at Lerwick. The admiralty did
not receive the information until 7
p. m. Having regard to the disposition
of our forces on the 18th, we are en-
titled TO say that We received wireless
information, and with three vessels
suitably fitted it is reasonable to ex-
pect that we should have received that
information-the British navy would
have asked no better chance than it
then had to intercept the raiders on
their return journey. In this case the
opportunity was denied US.
THE Scandinavian convoy system
was started in April of this year, and
more than $500 vessels have been con-
voyed by the British navy. This is the
first occasion upon which a single ship
has been lost by surface attack in
the Scandinavian convoy. l mention
this convoy particularly; but there are
other conveys continually passing up
and down and across the North Sea,
and our losses in them have been pro-
portionately less"

/ two hunger striking militants of the

Nine other militants still are i'm

in such a hurry to be rid of them.
There were limitations tonight. how

morrow. Among those freed were
Miss Alice Paul, national chairman Of
the woman's party, sentenced five
weeks ago to seven months impriscn-
ment for so called picketing of the
White House and Miss Lucy Burns,
vice chairman, who began serving a

Both of them and most of their COM
panions had been forcibly fed from

''The solution of the picketing prob

cannot be kept there four weeks.
Treating them as criminals for exercis-
