seem TO have solved tho situation fo1
tho Southern farmer, and tc, have re.
moved him from the domination Of

In the meantime, though. there
seems every prospect that the enrbar-
go on foreign potash will be lifted
within short time-derhaps a week.
At the hearings before Vance McCor-

sanguine that the embargo would be

exhibited by William Banks repre-

sensation of the day. These pictures
were more vivid than any verbal evil

G. L. Hooper of the Orpheum gave
a private showing of the super-feature
THE Miracle Man" this morning at
10 o'clock. This new picture was
first produced at the Cohan theater in
New York as a three act play. being
adapted for the stage by George NJ.

the show world between the eyes, sew
eral of the cast left the piece. Mr..
Cohan stepped in and played the part.

flower Photoplay Corporation pro-
duced It. Mr.. Hooper will show this
wonder picture at the Orpheum all

she said she was born in Russia and,
in case the deportation is ordered. the
immigration authorities were under
the impression that Russia would be
the country to which she would be de-
ported. This brought up the interest
ing question as to how she would be
taken there.
Miss Goldman said upon entering
the prison that she was as years old
and was an American citizen. She
said she had been in the United States
for thirty-one years and that her
father. now dead, was a naturalized
American citizen.
Charles A. Lich, deputy inspector of
the ST. Louis Immigration office, said
today he was not ready to announce
the details of the governments case
against Miss Goldman, but that he
was confident of proving two points
essential TO deportation, namely. that
Miss Goldman is an alien and that she
is an anarchist, and therefore an un-
desirable alien.
She is a native of Russia. he said,
and has never been naturalized in this
country. The time and place Of the
deportation hearing have not been set.
Miss Goldman will have the privilege
of counsel and witnesses. The tran
script of the evidence will be sent to
the secretary of labor, who will decide
whether she shall be deported

from Corpus Christi. Mayor Herbert

the city was not in a financial position
to give that sort of aid. He said
further that if it were, he doubted if
there was any legal way in which the
city could take such action.
1t is felt that there will be no
trouble at all in Topeka in subscrib-
ing at once an amount of sufficient
size to be a credit to Topeka, in the
mayors opinion, and it will only be
delayed by arranging details.
