Liberty Ball, Kidnapped, Taken
To Cities Off Direct Route

ROLLING ALONG WITH THE LIB
ERTY BALL, CANANDAIGUA, N. Y,
April 10.-In the village of Hocomb,
ten miles west of this delightful little
lake shore city, where the third loans
tourist Uncle Sans rest tonight, dwell
certain wilfuls of such downright Grim
inal tendencies that they ought to be
investigated the next time the state
police come this way.
They camouf1age themselves as
bakers and merchants and telephone
managers, hut their shame is at last
out, and publicly to-day they stole the
Liberty Ball.
If any one is to be singled out for
attack, that must be f. K Harnish, who
conducts the Bell Telephone system in
Ontario County. If any one is to be
named as an accomplish. that is Leon
c. Osborn, vice president and general
manager of the w. II. Osborn Canning
Company at Honeoye Fails.
These two desperadocs, Narnish and
Osborn, were members of the commit
tee which Ilonpoyc Falls sent to Roch-
ester to persuade J. A. Richie. route
manager for the Liberty Bali and the
Liberty Coach, that there wasn't any
sense in cutting so live town. They
conducted themselves as gentlemen
With Honeoyed words they persuaded
Richie and George Donohue, secretary
of the Rochester Automobile Club, that
the ball and the coach, or certainly one
of the two, should make short detour
to take in their own personal territory
SO when the ball started out Of
Rochester at 8 o'clock this morning
the Uncle Sans had been instructed to
hit it right up to Honeoye, and there
were plenty of Boy Scouts bandsmen
and Boy Scouts who just walked and
show them the way
And when the coach started couple
of hours later all arrangements had
been made for Frank Lyon and the
rest of the loan boosters to slip over
to the Falls at noon, while the Wander
bllt greys trotted on and had lunch
there. True to the plan, the machines
from Honeoye met the coach at the
appointed place, took them over to
Main Street, Honeoye, and had them
talk to the big crowd that was wait
ing there, and as punctiliously the
same motors took them back to rejoin
Morris Hewlett and his precious
horses.
Eventually Richie and the others
got to Victor, where both ball and
coach were scheduled to spend the
night. lie waited and waited and
waited, but no Liberty ball apparel.
A couple of miles out of town the
Boy Scouts of Victor and sundry lead
ing citizens waited and waited and
waited. Back in the village the bell
men were standing to their bells and
the engineers to their whistles.
1t had been made perfectly plain to
the Honeoye committee that they
would have to let go of the ball after
1t had travelled through the Bloom
fields and the falls. They had bowed
graVely their assent. But the Uncle
Sans, who, after all, aren't expected to
supply anything but motive power,
hadn't been informed just where to 30

Hebrew Trades
Urge Full Support
OF Liberty Loan
Official Appeal Asks for
Contributions to
the Limit

The United Hebrew Trades, which
failed to support the first and second
Liberty loans, yesterday issued an APP
peal to it's members to subscribe for the
third loan to the limit of their re-
sources.
This public declaration by the
United Hebrew Trades of the need of
supporting the national war programme
was last night hailed by Robert Maiscl
and other representatives of the Amcri-
can Federation of Labor as q victory
for those who have been fighting paci-
fism and Germanism on the East Side
These have contended that in opposing
the first two loans and the war pro-

United Hebrew Trades msrcpresented

The bond message was driven home
yesterday to huge crowds q. the Lib
erty Bell in City Hall Park by Myron
/. Herrick, Marie Dressler. Lieutenant
Pat" OBrien and others. They reused
the throngs to genuine enthusiasm, and
the women of the Mayors Committee
on National Defence, in charge of this
Liberty Loan centre, reported that the
excitement stirred had direct effect
on the sales total for the day.
Marie Dressler was particularly etii-

Miss Dresslcr confessed that she had
uncovered some really human traits in
boosting the great financial undertake
ing. When she was in Washington, she
said, talking for the main subject of
the month, sailor made his way
through the crowd that had gathered
to hear her and handed her all the

A farmer from Wisconsin, Miss
Dressler added, sent her $4,000, all his
savings. "When the interest on nv
bond falls due" he wrote, "please let
me know and | will send you Il check"
This man, remarked Miss Dressler, did
not even know that he got interest; he
thought he had to pay it, and his par
ents were German, too.

was stationed in France at the outset
of the war, declared Germanys attempt

The funeral of the victims of the
raid was held at Mestre today. The
long line of carriages bore thirty-five
collins. American flags and floral Of
ferings covered the baskets of the two
Americans.
Companions of Fairfield and Plat
say they were killed while performing
an act of bravery. They were at a
Red Gross camp far out of range of
the raid and could have remained
there safely.
But with two others they decided to
60 to Mestre when the raid had all
ready begun and to give aid and to
help probable victims. Fairfield and
Plat went ahead on a motorcycle
while the ambulances followed. 1t
was just as they reached the Mestre
hospital to begin their humane ,labors

MEXICO WAKES UP!
Government Takes Official Recogni-
ton of German Propaganda There.

Mexico City, Jan. SHERMAN
propaganda at last has reached the
stage where the Mexican government
has taken official notice of it, The
legislative committee which sits dur
ing the recess of the legislature has
directed the attorney general to in
vestigate charges that Heinrich Won
Eckhardt, the German minister to
Mexico, has been responsible for al
legged corruption in the Mexican
chamber OF deputies. These charges
were published by Ell Universal, a pro-
entente and pro-Amerjcan newspaper
together with a demand that Won
Eckhardt should receive his passports
as minister.
1t is asserted by opponents of Ell
Universal that if the charge of cor
ruption in the chamber should not be
proved against one or more deputies,
the paper is liable to prosecution un-
der Mexican law by every member of
the chamber.
