ADAMS SEEMS TO BE
 SHERIFF NOMINEE

Jeff D. Adams apparently is the democratic nominee for sheriff, ac- cording to the returns shown by the recount which was completed yester- day.
 While w. H. Wilky made a gain, it is conceded by those who were most interested in the fight for the nomina- tion of Adams for sheriff. that he has won. There are still a few ballots in dispute, but it is not thought the num- Der would affect the outcome. Whether or not the matter will be settled Tn court will be determined today when the attorneys hold conference at the noon hour.
 Adams, who claimed the nomination by a majority of 19, lost only two votes by the recount, claim his followers while the Wilky adherents declare that Wilky made a gain of 10 by the re- count.
 It was the consensus of opinion that the matter was closed last night when the last ballot was counted at o'clock. It is not thought likely that the dis puted ballots would give Wilky the majority. and that it would be a waste of time to take the contest into court.

A PACIFIC PORT, March 23-Two women prisoners of war are aboard the auxiliary schooner Alexander Agassiz, which is being lowed to this port by a United States cruiser on suspicion that she was starting on cruise. pos sibly as a German raider. according to naval officers here today. The schooner was captured off Mazatlan, Mex, last Tuesday.
 The raider had thirteen persons abroad when captured, the company including five Germans and six MeXi- cans. The Mexicans were not wanted by the United States authorities, and a statement that they were put ashore is believed to mean that the women are either Germans or Americans. Upon arrival here the prize ship and her prisoners of war will be turned over to the United States marshars s office. The prisoners now are in con- finement abroad the warship while a prize crew from the cruiser is aboard the Agassiz.
