TRANSPORTER OF LIQUOR
 KILLED BY DEPUTY

George w. Smith, a stage driver, was shot and instantly killed by Dep uty Sheriff Frank Lacey at o'clock Monday morning when Smith failed to stop his car at the command of the officer. The shooting took place on the Needles road near OOatman.
 Lacey is said to have had in- formation leading him to believe that Smith was bringing in a quantity of contraband liquor and was awaiting for his car. When Smith came along the road, Lacey observed that he was carrying two passengers. The officer ordered Smith to stop, but it is al- legged that Smith instead of observing the order speeded up his car.
 As Lacey saw that Smith was get ting away from him, he is said to have fired at the fleeing car. The first shot struck Smith inflicting 8 wound from which death ensued i'm. mediately. Search of the car driver by Smith is said to have revealed the presence of ten cases of whiskey. La. cey is being held pending an investiga. tion of the affair.

MILLIONS WORK IN MINES.

The magnitude of the mining indus try may be grasped when one realizes that more than 6,OO0,00O men are en- gagged in the mines of the world. Of this number 3,SO0,O00 are employed in the coal mines and 2,200,000 in the metal mines. In addition, millions more are engaged in allied industries dependent directly upon the mines for coal and metal, according to the En- gineering and Mining Journal.
 Mining is one of the hazardous in dustries employing over 100000 men in the United States, in which three out of every 1000 men employed are killed every year by reason of some accident.

Goldman, and Berknan
Say Farevell to Freedom,

Men and women trampled upon one
another, crawled ove- shoulders, bat
tered hats and shouted themselves ;
hoarse last night in an effort to obtain
standing room in Forward Hall and an
opportunity to assist Alexander Berk
man and Emma Go oman in their final
farewell to freedom
This morning the heads OF the two
anarchists, convicted of conspiracy 20
interfere with the operation of the
draft law, will be turned toward Fed
eral penitentiaries. A cell awaits Berk-
man at the Federal penitentiary at At
lanta and another is in readiness for
Miss Goldman at its twin institution at
jefferson City, Mo. Moreover, the last
legal step in Their behalf had been
taken in vain in the afternoon, an |
Judge Julius NJ. M>yer issued an or
der directing them to. surrender them
selves this morning and so to their
respective penitentlaries.
But last night, playing their favorite
roles of martyrs to an idea.' both
anarchists were radiantly happy Miss
Goldman modestly remarked that she
was not unlike the divine Bernhards
in that she had made many, many
farewell addresses. but still remained.
But now it seems that We are
really going, and l am happy" she
said "Going to jail for an idea isn't
so bad; it is better than remaining at
liberty and not working for the idea"
Berkman found equal satisfaction
in the thought that he finally was to
be given cell--or said so. at least.

Gen. March May Head
Army General Staff
| staff Correspondence1

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Major Cen
eral Peyton March, now commanding
artillery units Of the American Expe-
ditionary Forces, is to be brought back
to this country and placed in charge of
the General Staff of the army, it was
reported here tonight.
The proposed change is said to be
directly due to the demand of General
Pcrshing. commander of the overseas
forces. that the General Staff be re-
organized with general officers con-
versant with the great task the Ameri-
can army must bear in the war.
The selection of General March, if
made, would place at the head of the
army staff h~re an officer who is thor
oughly in sympathy with General
Pershing and the elaborate plans out
lined by the overseas commander for
Americas part in the war.
Major General Tasker II. Bliss, now
abroad, is to be retained for the time
being as Americas representative on
the lnter-Allied War Council. Major
General John Biddle. now acting chief
of staff, it is reported, is to be assigned
to duty with line troops.

Swiss Labor Unions
Demand dDemobilizatio

PARIS, Feb. IA dispatch from Ge-
neva, Switzerland, to the Temps" says
that the Swiss Federal Council. at an
extraordinary session, at which Cen
eral Ulrich Willie, commander Of the
army, and his chief of staff were pres
cnt, considered the ultimatum that has
been issued to the Federal Council by
the Labor Federation demanding de-
mobilization OF the Swiss army. begin
ming Immediately and terminating not
later than May /.
The labor ultmatum also demanded
that deserters and recalctrants, as
we'll as men in the auxiliary service,
shall be mustered out Immediately and
given their unpaid salaries.
The Federation Of Labor unions
adopted the resolution by vote of 1872
to 70, but the minority declares that
the action taken was Irregular.
A dispatch to the Havas Agency from
Berne says the reinforcement of Swiss
troops on the Swiss border has been
decided upon by the Federal Council
because of the interior and exterior
situation. A brigade of infantry and
detachments of cavalry and pioneers
have been added to the forces.

and therefore ruthless U-boat war
would probably accomplish the purpose
in three months.
Poor Opinion Of England
DR.. Salomonsohn asserted that Eng
lands position was very vulnerable
owing to her dependence on foreign
capital and the absence of a spirit of
self-sacrifice among the English peo-
PIE. He therefore thought six months
was an excessive estimate.
Dr.. Springorum said: Everything
depends on the cutting off supplies
from Great Britain quickly and thor
oughly."
On the second question, Herr Reusch
said: "The neutrals despise our re-
stricted submarine warfare Every
ship IN British waters, enemy or neu-
tral, should be torpedoed without warn
ing. The world only respects those
who in great crisis know how to make
the most unscrupulous use of their
power. Germany's position in the
world market after the war will be all
the stronger for her having convinced
the world of her power
America Not Feared
Herr Schmidt said: 81 have no fears
about America -
On the second question Herr Muller
said
Unrestricted submarine warfare
will cause the wholesale flight of neu-
trails from the war zone. Their news
papers will abuse Germany, but they
will soon tire. The chief danger is the
United States. but that danger will be
less in proportion as Germany operates
deciSively and ruthlessly.

Argentina Recalls
Military Attaches
At Teuton Capitals

BUENOS AYRES, Feb. 1.-The Min
istcr of War has recalled Argentina S
military attaches from Berlin and Vi
emma. In political circles this action is
regarded as significant and connected
with the sinking of the Argentine
steamship Ministro Irriendo. Jan
uary 26.
The Argentine Minister to France
has confirmed the fact that the steam
ship was flying the Argentine flag
announced by what authority the
change Of flags was made after leaving
this country, the vessel having sailed
under the French flag, but accepts the
sinking as an unfriendly act, even
though the use of the home flag was
unauthorized. The assumption in po-
ltical circles here is that Germany
does not intend to keep her promises
in regard to Argentina's shipping.
The situation here is tense, and the
authorities arc maintaining more than
their usual reticence on the subject,
but several events at the Government
House late to-day lead to the belief
that the government at last is prepar-
ing to take an important step.
After an unusually long lapse of
time, the Foreign Office day replied
to the notes Of Peru and Uruguay,
which notified Argentina of their rupt-
ure of relations with Germany, and
that of Brazil, informing Argentina of
her sister country's state of war with
the Central Powers.
Argentina, in the three notes sent in
reply, expressed her appreciation and
warmest sympathy with the three other
South American countries.
The note to Brazil, which was the
most significant, says that the Argcn-
tine government has followed all the
phases Of the causes which led to "this
just resolution" and closes with an
expression of homage to the Brazilian
nation.
These notes and the simultaneous re-
call of the military attaches from Ber-
lin and Vienna are regarded as indi-
eating that the country is verging on a
crisis in it's international relations. 1t
also was announced to-day that an
army officer who has been acting as
correspondent in Berlin for LA Ma
cion" also has been recalled by the
Minister Of War.

Ford to Build
One Chaser
Every Day
Anti-Submarine Craft Will
Be Built on Same Prin-
ciple as Autos

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Production
plans FOR the navy's new anti-subma-
rine craft contemplate the delivery of
finished boat every day when the
cycle Of production is complete. The
first vessel has already been started in
the fabricating shops at the Ford Motor
Company plant at Detroit.
Construction will 60 by stages. To
turn out boat a day after the lapse
of several months requires that a boat
a day be started. Materials that go
into construction arc fed into one end
of the plant as rapidly as it is planned
to produce the completed product at
the other. The whole number of boats
contracted for will be under produc-
ton simultaneously at one stage
Boats Weigh 500 Tons.
The design was worked out to reduce
to q minimum the necessity of shaping
plates. There arc many flat surfaces
to the vessel, bent and curved plates
having been avoided wherever possible.
The power will be furnished by
scarcd turbines and, since stability and
freak performance, no effort has been
made to go beyond safe and con-
servative speed estimate.
The boats will all be fabricated al
the Ford plant, progressing by stages
until they are launched at Detroit, to
be brought to the sea via the canal
system and inland waterways. They
will measure 200 feet and displace
about 500 tons, which insures easy
passage to the sea.
Will Be Rough He~n
No attempt has been made TO give
the design the refnements Of navy
craft built in peace times. They will
be rough hewn into shape in the inter
est of speed. The number of boats
ordered has not been revealed, but only
q substantial order would justify the
preparations for production which
must be made.
Military characteristics Of the design
also have not been disclosed. 1t is
known, however, that, while they do not
represent anything strikingly new in
submarine warfare. they will be armed
and equipped in such way as to effect
decided improvement in the patrol
service as they become available il
numbers.

The authors of the memorandum

necessary. They reinforced their argu-
ment as to the seriousness of the in
ternal state Of affairs by calling in
mine experts, representing German
finance, commerce, mining and agri-
culture.
These experts were: Waldemar Null

third. to what extent did the internal
situation of Germany demand the use

point, that England would have to sue
for peace in six months at most. Herr
