Make the First
Step.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
SAN FRANCISCO, March 1.-The

decision Of the supreme court uphold
ing MONEYS conviction and death
sentence for the preparedness parade

Governor Stephens announced that
he would not move until the nineteen
days allowed the defense to ask for
a rehearing had elapsed. Defense at
torneys said today they would not de-
termine their next move until they
had studied the courts decision more
thoroughly.
In event Of a petition for rehearing
the court must act within twenty-nine
DAYS. If no such step is taken,
MONEYS death sentence becomes ef-
fective March 81 and then only execu-
tive clemency can save him.
President Wilson has taken quick
action in the case, 1t was learned.
Governor Stephens saying that al
ready he had received a telegram
from the president regarding the
courts decision, but that he is not
at liberty to divulge its contents.
The decision of the court, based on
points Of law which form the only
matters the court is permitted by sta.
tute to consider, contained no con-
sideration or comment on the federal
mediation commissions report, the
Oxman expose or any Of the other
ramifications of the case which have
developed outside of the court room.
The decision of the supreme court
affirming the judgment was a great
step in the interests of justice, was

SOMEWHERE IN FlANCE,
Feb. L, 191S.-Dear Folks:
will try and write you about my
trip since leaving the states. we
had a wonderful voyage over the
sea. 1t showed all day the first
day out and rained several days,
but the great time came when
it started TO get rough. AT times
the boat would turn way over on
the side and waves would wash
the decks and we usually roll
with 1t. 1t was lots of fun II
you felt good, but no Joke If you
were sick. We sure were glad
when land came within view and
while any land would have look
ed good, I don't believe / ever
saw as pretty sight in my life
as when we slipped into the har-
Dor. Everything was SO clean,
The grass and foliage were green
and the buildings are all white;
no wooden houses. all stone and
cement. l mustn't forget to tell
you among the first things we
saw was Ford. They are thick
er here than fleas on a dogs
back. All the people here are
quiet and very polite. The wom-
en- all wear black, most OF them
are in mourning. We see very
few young men and what we do
see. are in uniform and on fur
Tough from the front. The women
do all the work, even to making
roads and on the railroads. We
have travelled about ESQ miles
since landing and the country Is
beautiful. Cabbage is heading
and the gardens look fine.
Tell Ed he should see the rail-
roads over here. OF course,
the country is small and a hun
dred miles is considered quite a
long ways. It is hard for us TO
talk to the natives, but you would
be surprised how quick a person
can pick 1t up. Their money Is
queer, but am getting next to It.
We move again in a few days,

a while. Some of the boys that
have been here quite a while,
don't think the war will end this
spring and / don't think it will
either, although l hope it does.
Everyone of us will do our best
to end it as soon as possible, but
it won't be snap.
Well, l can't tell you much
more, for the censor takes look
at all our mail and we are not
allowed to describe any location
we have seen, but will have plenty
to tell when / get home. BY the
way, I am company mail man and
help censor our mail.
There are quite q few boys
from Iowa here, but none from
Keokuk that I know Of.
Well, I must close. Write TO nae
Z every time the spirit moves
you, and let 1t he often. Don't
wait for mail from me, for you
may get it in punches and SINE
times month apart. I will write
every few days. It will be just
card, but enough to let you
know that I am still on the globe.
Well, good by; give my love to
all. Your loving SON and brother,
JOHN.

RICH VEIN. IS CUT
IN SANTA CLARA
NEAR SAR!C
ORE SHOWS 48 PER
CENT OF MANGANESE
Product Will Be Shipped
Out by Way of Santa
Ana, on S. p. de M.

With the cutting of a four-foot
vein of manganese ore running
48 per cent, the Santa Clara
mine, near Saric, in the Altar
district, looms up as one of the
most promising properties in that
rapidly growing mining section.
Frederick A. Bull of San Fran
cisco, lessee of the Santa Clara,
has just returned from there,
and it was during his recent
trip that the rich vein mentioned
was uncovered.
In addition to the vein itself.
which outcrops for a distance
of fully 100 feet where it has
been explored, there is float, or
what Mr.. Bull de- cribes as "a
potato digging proposition, y
about Ia feet wide. AS Mr.. Bull
explains it:
Where the vein pushed up,
it crumbled off, and for a width
of about IA feet there are pieces
Of loose ore running in size from
Jumps as big as your fist to boul-
ders of 300 to 400 pounds in
weight.
''The float is very rich in
manganese. running as high as
SO per cent. How deep this
deposit is did not determine. y
Mr.. Bull has returned to No
gales for the purpose of making
application for the necessary
export licenses, and meanwhile
development work and the strip
ping of the vein will proceed.
He expects that this development
work will take about thirty
days, and by that time the
export licenses will be ready,
and the shipment of ore will be
started.
The ore will be freighted by
wagon to Santa Ana on the S. P.
de M. railway, and from there
sent by rail to some point in the
United States.
Mr.. Bull has had an offer
from agents of Brazilian pur-
chasers for the entire output of
the Santa Clara, but has not ac-
cepted it
Until the development work is
completed, it will be impossible
to say what the output of the
Santa Clara will be, but it is
certain to be a large shipper,
once actual operations are under
way.
