SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. S.-Be-
tween 600 and 500 passengers are
aboard the stranded steamers of the
American Yukon Navigation Com
pany on the Yukon River enroute
to the States, according to reports
received here. In case the boats
are unable to proceed, they will be
forced tc mush over soft trails to
Fairbanks, or wait until there is
sufficient snow for shedding. From
Fairbanks they will probably come
out by the way of Cordova.

All of these boats are carrying
passengers for the States. Part of
those on the vessels at Tanana will
make an effort to get out by the
way of st. Michael and get passage
on the last Victoria. The rest will
be forced to back travel overland

SLAYER ABS0LVED
FROM PAYMENT OF
DEATH PENALTY
Jury Recommends Against
Capital Punishment for
Woodworth's Murderer.
DEFENDANT COLLAPSES
Lilly's Nerve Forsakes Him
When Verdict Of Guilty
Is Read in Court.

Guilty of murder in the first de-
gree without capital punishment,
is the verdict returned by the jury
in open court before Judge Robert
w. Jennings at 7o'clock last night
against E. C. Lilly for the murder
of Billy Woodworth aboard the gas
boat Sea Breeze on August 25, last.
Brought up from the jail to hear
his fate, the defendant seated in a
chair beside his attorney was ap-
parently composed and confident
when the jury filed into the room.
To a slight degree he lost control
of himself as the verdict was being
read and as the pronouncement of
guilty was reached, he lost his alert
appearance, slide forward in his
chair, seeming to shrivel for an in
slant, his nervousness apparent to
all.
His partial collapse was of brief
duration. U. S. Deputy Marshal
e. A. Lucy moved to his side and
slipped a set of handouts over his
> a rist, ~ Something was wrongewith
the mechanism and two or three
minutes was required to fasten
them on. When this was accom-
plished, Lilly had regained his nerve
and forced grimacing smile to his
countenance as he was led below to
be confined in a cell. The strain,
however, showed in his appearance
as he went down the broad strairs
to the lower floors, the pallor in his
face being noticeable when he
reached the Marshal's office.
Verdict Not Unexpected.
To those who had followed the
case, hearing the evidence and its
summing up by District Attorney
Smiser yesterday, the verdict did
not come as a surprise, at least one
prediction as to the outcome being
correctly made. After receiving the
instructions of Judge Jennings, the
Jury retired for deliveration at S
o'clock yesterday afternoon. At
$50 an agreement was reached,
Court officials assembling 80 min
utes later to receive the verdict.
Since his conviction, Lilly has
had nothing to say regarding 1t, ac-
cording to Federal officials. The
silence which he has maintained re-
garding the burning of the Sea
Breeze since he made his statement
to Deputies Casey and Hardy and
Special Agent N. H. Castle remains
unbroken John B. Marshall, who
represented the convicted .man in
the trial, stated this morning that
he did not think that there would
be any appeal taken to a higher
court.

NEW YORK, May 24.-Tha session Of the stock exchange today was de void Of special feature, aside from the superficial character of the trad ing. Financial industrial and com- mercial developments over the week end seemed to offer little immediate 'relief from recent unsettled conditions.
 Efforts to place a favorable con-
 struction on the low rate for call
 loans, which renewed at six per cent, the easiest Monday quotation in sev- eral weeks. met with scant success in
 the face of further stringency of time funds
 Deflation of credits made additional progress under supervision Of the fed. eral reserve board, as indicated by the higher rate or discount posted in the Atlanta district and greater scarcity
 of available funds in the middle west
 Signs of a break ill the freight block
 ade were apparent, but merchants al important eastern and western centers reported further diminution of activity and slower collections, attributed partly to the price cutting crusade. Mexican affairs assumed more ser ious aspects, the shares Of leading oil companies operating in hat country belng under constant pressure with
 low grade domestic issues of the same description.
 Shorts experienced little difficulty in e5fccting further price impairment Of steels, equipments, motors, the food group and rails, the latter forfeiting much of the advance made on recent announcement Of the establishment O. the governments revolving fund The one conspicuously strong stock was Atlanta Gulf, which closed at a gain
 of almost nine points. Sales were 70G eco shares.
 Dealings in bonds were relatively light, the Liberty and Victory issues yielding part of last weeks advance with several of the foreign war issues while domestic rails and industriais were irregular. Total sales, par value, aggregated $17,250.OGO Old United States bonds were unchanged on call.

BEING NICE TO CRIMINALS

Judge lands OF Chicago refused to
sentence six men charged with stealing
GOO sacks of sugar consigned for inter-
state shipment. because President Will
son had pardOned man sentenced by
Judge lands for selling tubercular
cattle. II can't sentence these men
with the Drosey thing fresh in my
mind" the jurist said. 81 cant I'M
derstand the workings OF the presi-
dents mind" Nobody can. II simply
shows that the quality Of mercy Is
abused nv those ideallsts who strain at
knat and swollow a camel. The blind
goddess is outraged by those who for
get justice while contemplating senti-
mental mercies TO those who deserve
only the sternest retribution.
The sentimentalist who Is exercising
the hardening power Of the people ex-
ceeds his authority when he deliber-
ately destroys the work OF the courts
that also derive their just powers from
the people. With the intention of be-
Ing merciful. he Is most cruel Of all.
for he encourages the predatory In
stincts Of outlaws that prey on the
peaceful and defenseless, sitting hui
man Kindness and confidence and para
living social intercourse.
The confirmed criminal Is such be-
bause of his instincts that place him
at war with society. The criminal new
or gives quarters. knows no mercy. The
burglar who would steal silver comes
armed and ready to kill. frequently
does kill. Criminologists maintain
that II is useless TO try to reform the
instinctively criminal-they are the
cave-dwellers born few thousand
years after their era. There Is moth
ing In their moral makeup to respond
10 an appeal for order founded on law.
In youth we all live over the lawless-
ness OF the primal race from which We
passed by evolution. What boy has not
dreamed Of being bold, had robber,
dug n pirate cave and maintained an
arsnel to destroy human life? The act
ual attempt TO realize these childish
fancies makes the young crooks the
most desperate. the most deadly Of all
those that live by stealth and wit. Our
primitive fathers survived by the arts
that are today Outlawed we can thank
them for life and also for survival Of
