CARRIZOZO OFFICERS
STEER GERMAN SPY
INTO TOLLS OF LAW

Henry Hartman. who for the
past 80 days has been employed
in the capacity of brakeman on
the +. p. & S. w. road and
stopping at the Grandview hote'
in Carrizozo, was arrested at the
union depot in FL Paso Wednes-
day afternoon where he had
been followed by Special Officer
Ben West. Sheriff Hyde gained
information early Wednesday
that Hartman was known TO
have some rather suspicious
drawings in his possession and
started to investigate, whereup
on he learned that he had quit
the employ of the railroad and
was preparing to leave for Ell
Paso on No. 7. Mr.. Hyde and
Special Officer West kept the
man under surveillance and when
he boarded the train for FL Paso,
Mr.. West went to FL Paso, too,
managing to seat himself where
he could watch Hartman and ar.
rest him should he attempt TO
get away. Hartman was not
aware that he was being shad-
owed but attempted TO alight
from the train at one of the
street crossing in Ell Paso rather
than go on to the union depot.
Mr.. West intervened and in
formed him that he was detain-
ed and that parties at the union
depot would like to see him
whereupon the man set up a
great disturbance but was held
until his arrival at the depot
where officers of the Department
Of Justice were awaiting upon
advice of a telegram from the
sheriff's Office here. When TAX
en- to the offices of the Depart
ment of Justice, Hartman was
found to have complete detailed
plans of three types of United
States submarines, letters writ
ten in German from German Of
ficials and maps and pictures of
many important buildings, brid-
ges and other structures in this
section of the country. His
home is said TO be in Luxembourg,
Germany, to which point he
seemed to be making arrange
ments to set sail in the near fu-
ture.
He was, it seems, once appre-
hended in Los Angeles and pa
pers found in his possession
warranting prosecution, but es-
capped the officers who had fol-
lowed him to FL Paso and there
lost the trail. Papers found in
Hartman's trunks showed that
he had worked for many rail
roads in this section of the u.
5. and that he was only recently
discharged from the services of
the Southern Pacific because he
had broken up a home in Los
Angeles by meddling into domes.

SPUR THE IDLER.

To supply our own armies and the
armies of our Allies with food, NUM-
tions and equipment is a task no less
important than that of putting our ar
mics in the field in Europe. Selective
draft was adopted as the most practical
and most effective method of raising an
army. Some sort of Industrial draft
may also be necessary in order to make
most efficient our work, of supplying
food, materials and transportation. In
these days of the nation s great need
there should be no idler within our Dor.
ders. Every person capable of produc
tive effort should be engaged in some
useful, productive occupation At the
same time that we are endeavoring to
conserve the products of labor, we
should conserve labor itself by assur
ing its utilization to the fullest extent
The regulation of the personal con
duct of the citizen, when not related
to interstate transactions, is a matter
Of questionable national jurisdiction
Notwithstanding the national impor,
lance of the useful activity of every
able-bodied man, it may not be within
the province of the general government
to legislate against idleness. However
that MAJ be, the subject need not be
neglected. The state of Maryland has
already undertaken to compel its citizens
to engage in useful occupations. Other
states and municipalities should take
similar steps with a view to assuring
that while no Stacker evades his duty on
the firing line, no other Stacker, exempt
from military service there, shall remain
in idleness here at home.

HARROW IS AWARDED
DAMAGES OF 500
Jury Reports in $4,000 Suit fol
Personal Damages
Suit Against Wilmington Woman to
Recover for Services Fails - Walker
Will Case Now On Trial.

A verdict of $2701J in favor of
Frank A. Larrow was rendered by the
jury in county court about 5.15 clock
Tuesday afternoon in the case of Mr..
Larrow against Paul d. Cobb and
George Martell, but earlier in the day
Mr.. Cobb was dismissed from the case,
so the verdict stands against Mr.. Mar
tell.
In this suit Mr.. Larrow sought to re-
cover $4,000 for injuries received in
February, 1914, while driving a horse
on Flat street, in a collision with an
automobile driven by Mr.. Martell, an
employee Of Mr.. Cobb in the latter s
garage on Elm street. The collision oc-
CURED near the junction of Elm and
Flat streets and Mr.. Larrow was thrown
to the ground and injured. The hear
ing was begun last week.
After the plaintiff rested Friday
noon the defense put on several per-
sons who saw the accident, including
Charles Brown Richard Scott w. A.
Shumway, Harold Smith, George Boorn
and the two defendants.
The testimony Of these witnesses tend
ed to show that the automobile was run
ming from 10 to - miles an hour and
that Mr.. Larrow was trying out a
horse attached to n low-wheelcd sulkv,
which horse hc later entered in races.
The Holden & Martin lumber piles
southeast of the junction of the streets
obscured the view of both drivers
Some of the defendants witnesses
testified that Mr.. Larrow was driving
his horse at rapid rate. Mr.. Boorn.
who testified that he had handled many
horses, said he thought Mr.. Larrow IS
horse was hitting about a 24O clip, and
the speed and style of the horse was
what first attracted his attention.

Brittan were examined. Mr.. Mosher
said that by telephone he ordered the

Have you stopped to think of what
this flight Of Laureati, the Italian avi.
ator, means? lie covered the distance
between Turin, Italy, and London, Eng
land, approximately 200 miles, in 722
minutes, and it was necessary for him
while sailing through the air at a height
of 10000 feet, travelling often faster
than n mile a minute, to pick course by
n compass. He drove one of the newest
types of airplanes, and was accompanied
by an observer. To get some idea of
what this flight meant we should stop
to think that if Laureati had started
from Brattleboro and covered an equal
distance southwark, he would have
landed close to the line between Georgia
and Florida in two minutes more than
IL hours.

GERMAN TREACHERY.

The state department at Washington,
following the exposures which showed
German intrigue to stir up trouble in
Mexico and to get secret information
through Swedish officials into Argentina
so that vessels of that country could be
destroyed without leaving q trace of
their fate, has revealed further duplic-
ity, involving the late Ambassador
Bcrnstorff to this country. A commune
cat ion to the Berlin foreign Office shows
that while the ambassador was in Wash
ington he asked for 5000 to be used
i'll influencing congress, and the state
ment shows that previously sums had
been for similar purposes.
Other disclosures were made Saturday
of far-rcaching propaganda, intrigues
and plots in this country previous to
the severance of diplomatic relations
the testimony coming in papers seized
in the New York office of a German
agent, Wolf Won Ingel, who was in con-
slant touch with the German embassy
in Washington. These papers show that
Supreme Court Justice Daniel +. Coha-
Ian was interested in stirring up 5uble
for the English through German aid to
the Irish revolutionists Cohalan has
made a denial, claiming he was the vic.
tim of "plant,' but the officials in
| Washington have replied, showing how
impossible it would have been for the
justice to have been n victim of con
spiracy on the part of any Englishmen
The New York papers are demanding
The power to remove him rests with the
Legislature. He is in an office paying
$l7 800 salary annually and has several
years to serve before his term is com
pleted.
Another expose shows that Germany
sent packages of deadly microbes and
powerful explosives into Rumania while
/ that country was still maintaining q
state of neutrality.
1t is understood that the state de.
partment has other evidence secured by
its secret service force of Germany ;;

ment is destined to become pariah
among nations. No one can have any
belief in the honesty or sincerity OF
Germany as a nation until another gen
Grafton comes into existence, and it will
be necessary for that generation to dem
onstrate that it has been purged OF
autocracy and Prussianism before it car
be taken on trust.

The annual report of James II. Hustis,
temporary receiver of the Boston &
Maine railroad, is not very encouraging
for the stockholders. The increase in
operating revenues were more than oft
set by the increase in operating ex-
penses. The net income from operating
and other sources was $3.50, 449, MS
compared with $4,065,G9l the previous
year. The increase in wages alone
amounted to more than 100000 in the
year. The figures point to the inevitable
conclusion that this great railroad sys-
TEN, which serves the transportation
needs of a large part of central and
northern New England, is loaded with a
burden of expenses which could not be
avoided, and at the same time has no
way of adding to its income by increas.
ing its carrying charges. The situation
with the Boston & Maine is one which
tends to draw capital away from rail,
road investment, for this system is not
the only one that is troubled with shaky
finances.
