JAMES D0WNEY HOME;
WAS PRISONER OF HUNS
Relatives Here Had Given Him
Up as Having Lost Life.
Gave Assumed Name.

James Downey, Washington boy,
who was taken prisoner from Brit
ish steamer in April, 1916. and was
held in a German prison camp, giving
his name as Fred Stone" has arrived
at his home here. Downey was given
a royal welcome by his relatives and
friends who had given up all hopes of
ever seeing him alive again.
He was a member of a mixed crew
of Americans and English that sailed
from Norfolk. Va. on the British
steamship Esmeralda. The. steamer
was bound for Egypt. and when in
mid-ocean. just at the time the United
States entered the war, the vessel was
overtaken by a German submarine
and the crew made prisoners. Downey
assumed the name of Fred Stone"
and it was by that name he was reg
istered by the Germans.
He was held at the Hun prison
camp at Brandenburg, in Germany.
and says that the treatment received
was SO harsh that he prayed daily
that he might die. He also chafed
under the knowledge that he was I'M
able to serve the United States in the
trenches.
Downey Is the only surviving child
of the late Daniel Downey. who for
more than fifty years was a faithful
employe of the Washington Gas Light
Company. The father died while his
son was held prisoner.

ALLEGED RIOTERS TRIAL

Fifty Held on Various Charges.

CHICAGO, August 6.-Fifty alleged
race rioters will be placed on trial in
October for murder. assault with in
tent to kill, conspiracy to riot and
carrying concealed weapons, it was
announced today by the states attor-
ney. Speedier trial would be urged,

charged with crime must be given a

a defense"

ing toward the prosecution of those
believed guilty of participation in the
recent race riots, which resulted in
thirty-three deaths and the injury of
hundreds. 10000 soldiers. police and
deputy sheriffs are patrolling the
black belt" The calm which follow
ed the advent of the troops. it was
thought, would permit the with
drawal of soldiers in a week or ten
days, but events in the last twenty
four hours led to doubts today as to
when it would be safe to remove the
military guard. Several fights and
minor demonstrations and a number
of small fires Of suspicious origin, led
the authorities to believe that embers
of the race hatred still were smolder-
ing and that it might be necessary for
the soldiers to remain for several
weeks.
In several instances troops have
been hooted, and complains have been
made by white persons that they have
been reviled and. on occasions. spat
upon by negroes.

REPORTS SHIP TERMINAL
CHARGES AND SEA RATES
Shipping Board Says q. s. Vessels
Must Compete With Those
Privately Owned.

Reports on terminal charges for
ocean-going ships at ports in the
United States and ocean rates for
freight and passenger carrying yes
sells, under the control of the United
States Shipping Board, were issued
today by the board These reports
are the result of Investigations con-
Quoted by officers of the division of
operations and officials Of other sec
tions Of the board. ~ 49,
Concerning rate control by the ship
ping board, the section Of the report
devoted to ocean rates says Ship
ping board vessels must necessarily
compete with privately owned YES
sels.
where shippers are able to choose
between government vessels and pri-
vate vessels. rates fixed by the gov
eminent will determine those that
may be charged, by, private COM
panies. If the government foregoes
profits other carriers must do like
wise. Rates for all vessels, how
ever. should be reasonable, but the
government should do nothing to
limit the development of private
shipping"
1t is shown in the report how ocean
rates on all classes Of freight mount
ed during the period July, 1917, to
June, 1918. Rates on general cargo
from New York to European, African
and Asiatic ports almost invariably
increased.
Rates for terminal charges at ports
in the United States and interconnec-
ton Of rates for ship-bound freight
carried on railroads are extensively
dealt with in the report.

come to me; my name is known
in thirteen states-but I've
rheumatics in my knee. My
picture oftentimes appears in
daily prints and magazines; but
I look back, through mists of
tears, to when l barely earned
my beans; my laurel wreaths
seem wreaths of Grape, they do
not soothe my jaded soul; my
teeth are in such beastly shape

pompous mien, while toiling
legions round me rush. No
doubt they think my life's a
snap, stretch of roses and of
wine; they look upon my kingly
map, and wish they had such
luck as mine. But I must eat
the food of cows, the tasteless
prune, the humble leek; if for
an hour on pie l browse, l have
dyspepsia for week. The gold
en- dreams l dreamed of old have
been fulfilled in every way, but
I don't value what l hold, for l
