Mai. J. B. Carnett, commander

TO do 50 will require $4,000, and the

BY wearing the suit it will be pos

The soles Of the shoes are lined with

tions for transfer Of 10000 tons OF
Japanese shipping ito the United

This agreement is understood to be

tended to bridge over the period of
negotiations now being conducted by
American Ambassador Morris at
Toxic for a wider and more perma-
nent understanding.
Japan VIII Gain In End
Signing of the agreement is all that
remains. The United States first
asked for 100000 tons of shipping.
and negotiations proceeded on that
basis until the Russian debacle
brought up the possibility of Japa-
nese action in Siberia. Japan was
unwilling to relinquish more than
10000 tons, asking in return the lift
ing Of the steel export embargo 80
that she might replace the ships
with new ones. AS one ton Of plates
makes about three tons Of shipping,
she will gain so per cent shipping ca
pacity in the end.
Prices which the United States and
Japan will pay for the ships and
steels, respectively, have not been
made public. 1t is understood the
shipping board which administers the
law s~uspending the prohibition
against foreign vessels entering trade
between American ports will put no
obstacle in the way of Japanese ship
ping firms obtaining permits for
trade between the Pacific coast and
Hawaii. While the big Japanese
liners always stop at Honolulu be-
tween Yokohoma and American ports,
they have been prohibited by law
from taking any passengers or cargo
between the island and the main

Austin, Texas, March N.-The court

case of Harry ]. Spaniel, hotel pro-

Coleman county jury and sentenced
to serve five years in the penitentiary
for the murder of Lieut. Colonel M. 9.

The appeal Of the defense commended
that Spaniel, having been acquitted
of a charge of killing his own wife,
could not legally be tried for killing
Butler, since the double killing was
a continuous affair"
Mrs. Spaniel and Colonel Butler
were shot and killed in Spannel's au-
tomobile at Alpine. Spaniel gave
himself up after the shooting. He
was tried on a charge of killing Mrs.
Spaniel in January 1917, and was ac-
