AMERICANS KILLED
Clash With Hun Civilians in Occupied
Territory

Coblenz, June 10--Hostility between
Americans ard German civilians in oc-
cupied regions has caused additional
clashes recently. In one instance an
American was killed, and in other en-
counters several Americans were
wounded. At least six Americans
have been killed by civilians since the
American troops reached the Rhine
German officials say that five Germans
have been killed by Americans in six
months of occupation. The Germans
admit that they are keeping books on
the treatment OF civilians by the
Americans. paying particular attention
to encounters where civilians con-
tended the soldiers were to blame In
American circles the Germans record
IS called the red book ,rc0tr
Private Patrick Sheridan was killed
when Germans celebrating the Whit
sunday holiday attacked Americans in
the streets in Ehrenbreitstein. Sheri-
dan was an innocent bystapder The
German who fired the fatal shot was
held for trial by military commission
In Arzbach, soldiers and civilians
clashed Monday night one American
being stabbed and a German sustain
ing a fractured Skull In sew
eral other villages there were fights
on Sunday and Monday, with an even
number OF soldiers and civilians in
jured
Orders have been issued TO the mill
tary police to prevent soldiers from
wantonly attacking Germans. In some
districts, Germans were requested TO
report TO the military police any sol
diers who mistreated civilians.
I Reports indicate that the Germans
( in numerous instances are insolent
and that they frequently waylay sol
diers at night. In some cases handouts
OF Americans left as rear guards in
villages have been maltreated by the
( Germans who outnumbered them.
These reports have been circulated so
widely among the American troops
thar ii apparently does not require
more than sight provocation now for
them to adopt belligerent measures.
II is declared in American quarters
that every precaution has been taken
TO stop local outbreaks between sol
diers and civilians during the period
before the Americans either pull III
stakes and start for home or resume
their march into Germany in the event
OF the German delegates refusing tc
sign the peace terms.

The figures of the maple sugar or
chards of Vermont, as collected by
Z. S. Brigham, state commissioners
of agriculture, are Disappointing in
some respects. Despite the fact that
the highest prices known have rul-
ed for the product, only one per cent
increase in the number of trees tap
ped is recorded for 1919.
The production per tree this sea
son was considerably below that OF
1918, it being this year 1.61 pounds
on an average whereas last year Il
was 2.26 pounds per free. However
the prices received this year were SC
much higher than In 1918 that the
amount received by the owners Il OF
maple groves was considerably in
excess of any.preyious, figure The
total revenue in. 1919 is estimated al
at least $4,000, 000 This Is from an
pfoximately 5.6O0,000 trees, producing
100000 pounds OF sugar or Us

Nevertheless. despite the fact tina
the maple product per tree has no

Warren has been IN Newport jail for
three months, and Wa. Lord, his
attorney, gave a short statement of his
case, in which he told the court of Mr..
Warren's effort for reformation and
that in the last three weeks in the
jail he has not used any opium at all
and the attorney asked that Warren
be recommitted. to that institution SO
that he might perhaps recover entire
ly from the slavery of the dope. The
court gave Warren nine months in the
Newport Jail, l.ar
Joseph Guertin Of Montreal did not
Ease as well. He claimed he had been
