war this amount has been dropping

COO tons and this year it Is asserted
she will take less. Germans total
use of ore Is something like 5000. 900

There is also said to be some cop

Best Course Is Clear.
Military critics here believe that
Sweden as a belligerent on the side
Of the allies would be better on
than she is as a neutral. Germany Is
altogether too busy for anything but
a naval attack upon the Swedish
coasts and the Gallipoli campaign
has convinced all military men of the
futility of pure naval attack against

that Germany will not take active

wife living in Germany. his native
country.
Perry was arrested a few days ago
on the complaint OF Mrs. Eta Perry,
1910 U street southeast, who stated
that she was the first wife the ma
chinist had accrued in this country.
The charge was that OF nonsupport

When Perry was arraigned in court

And she told her sad story last
night. How she had been fooled
with wiles and promises and had suf-
fered the experience Of q ''wolf' at
the door. But. she concluded with the
forgiving statement that she did not
wish to prosecute her German hus-
band.

In 1901 Mrs. Paris was the widow
Of John Paris, a German. She is also
Of German parentage. During that
year at q German picnic in Rosslyn.
Va, Mrs. Paris met Perry. who told
her that he owned q farm nearby
and wanted her to all a position OF
housekeeper. In reality, Mrs. Paris

They did not live together long.

band. Perry came to her house often
after that. here in Washington, but
her sons drove him away.
Mrs. Paris says that Perry was
brought into court In 1912. She went
to the trial and there met a woman,
who said that she had only a short
time previously married Perry. She
was Mrs. Mary Eta Ruddlesden.
Perry was sentenced to the peni-
tentiary for six years, according to
Mrs. Paris. but was released after
four years for good behavior. She
then knew that she was one of two
of Perry's wives. she said. But only
recently did she know that she was
one Of three.
Mrs. Paris stated that once she
found a letter in Perry's pocket
signed by a woman, who had the same
name that Perry's alleged dead wife
In Germany possessed. but she did not
question him about 1t. She says that
she thinks that his wife in Europe
may still be living.
