Liquor Craft
Near Wreck
Off Cape May
Yarmouth, With 100000
"Wet'' Cargo for Havana,
Is Being Towed Back by
Ship Sent to the Rescue

The freighter Yarmouth, bound for
Havana with 10000 cases of whisky,
gin and champagne, valued at $2,O0O,-
900, reported by radio last night that
she was sinking thirty-fve miles east
of Cape May, N. J. The coast guard
cutter Itasca and two steamers were
dispatched from New York to her as
sistance. Latter the 'ftascs' reported she
had taken the Yarmouth in tow and
WAS proceeding with her to New York
The Yarmouth, of British registry, is
operated by the Black Star Line, cor
poration recently founded by local
negroes. She is Of 725 tons.
When the vessel went down the East
River Saturday on her way to sea, it
was observed that she listed heavily
to starboard. This may have been ac-
counted for by the fact that 5000 cases
OF liquor, for which cargo space had
been calculated, had not been loaded
by midnight Friday and were seized by
revenue agents, who, watches in their
hands, had witnessed the efforts of the
longshoremen to finish their labors
before the Eighteenth Amendment
went into effect.
The first radio distress message from
the Yarmouth was picked up at Boston.
The wireless said the forward ballast
tank was leaking into the engine-room
and that heavy mist prevailed. The
ships position was stated in radio
to Philadelphia to be twenty-four
miles east of North End Lightship.
The Yarmouth's wet" cargo was
brought to New York by rail and boat
last week. While the liquor was on
Pier 22 the police Of the Oak Street
station were kept busy taking into
custody waterfront hangers-on who
had helped themselves and become in
toxicated.

Tell Holland He Is Cuizfv
Dutch Are Informed That Responsibility for
Army's Deeds Rests With Wilhelm and 1t Is
their Duty to Aid in Prosecuting Him

PARIS, Jan. 18 (By The Associated
s).-The Supreme Councils note
to the Dutch government, asking that
the former German Emperor be given
up to the Allies under Article 227 Of
the Versailles treaty for trial, points
out that if the former Emperor had
remained in Germany he would have
been delivered up under the same con-
ditions by the German government.
Among so many Crimes" the note
recalls, 1.-The cynical violation of the
neutrality of Belgium and Luxembourg,
the barbarous system of hostages,
massed deportations, systematic dew
astation without military reasons, the
submarine war" and declares "for all
OF which acts sponsibilty, at least
moral, reaches the supreme chief, who
ordered them or abused his unlimited
powers to break, or permit others to
break, the most sacred rules of human
conscience
The powers cannot conceive" the
note adds, "thaS the Netherlands would
regard with less reprobaton than
themselves the immense responsibility
weighing upon the ex-Emperor.
Holland would not be fulfilling her
international duty if she refused to
associate herself with ether nations,
so far as she is able. to prosecute,
or at least not to impede the punish
ment OF crimes committed"
The note points out that it is the
duty of the powers to insure execution
or Article 227 without entering
into argument, because at is not q
question of public accusation having
throughout legal character, but an
act Of high international policy i'm
posed by the universal conscience, In
which legal forms are employed solely
to insure the accused body guarantees

the conviction that Holland, one of the

nations, will not desire to cover bv

tlons, and that ell are interested to

GRENADA COUNTY ABLY REPRESENTED.

Grenada County was ably represented in the house OF repre-
sentatives which adjourned last Saturday. There were no two
men in that body which more thoroughly had the confidence
and the esteem of their fellow legislators than Hon. W. A.
Winter and Hon. B. S. Elliott. They both had important COM
mittee assignments and well did they play their part in every
important matter which came up. They both remained
at their post until the Speakers gavel pronounced final ad-
journment. Not only were they potential factors on nearly
every matter that came up, but they voted right on matters
where the pleas of the multitude would have made it easy for
them to go with the crowd.
Nh. Winters experience gained as a member of the preced-
ingaegislature gave him an acquaintance and a hold or. the con-
fddRce of former members which stood him well in hand and
placed him at the front rank at the very beginning of the ss-
sion.
Mr.. Elliott started in without experience but he had a head
full of commons sense and a heart that beat true and he was I'M
bued with a patriotic desire to render real service, hence there
is no trouble to- understand how readily he came to be recog-
nized as one of the best and safest men in the legislature.
Grenada County should feel a great pride in Winter and Ell
lott. %

That things are SO because they're sol
That makes me feel that all men are good
If they're only understood.

The faith that makes n mortal see

An spiles his crops. perhaps it's jest
As He intends an for the best.
The simpel faith our mothers knowed.
That every bud or bloom that blowed
night an dawn an sunshine bright.
Was evidence of His delight.
The olden faith that heerd the words
scripture in the songs of birds
That held all creatures here was His.

The plain. old-fashioned faith for me;

faith that all the years that's gone
Amt offered no improvement on.

GREEK L. RICE OF TALLAHATCHlE.

The writer had occasion to be in Jackson several times dur
ing the sitting Of the legislature and each time was on the floor
of the house of representatives where he had a chance to care
fully observe different legislators and to know how their fellow
members regarded them, hence we feel it a sort of duty to say
to our sister County of Tallahatchie that her representative,
Hon. Greek l.. Rice, made a record that his people should be
glad to endorse and one to which he can point to in future
days with pardonable pride.
Mr.. Rice was discreet in all things. He was forceful. in de-
bate and never took the floor on frivolous matters, but when he
did address the house, he was given the closest attention and
spoke with telling effect. He was regarded as one of the most
potential forces in the lawmaking body.
He has many friends in Grenada County who join with his
people in congratulating him on his good work.
