a FORD TRUCK OvERTURNS
Driver Charles POIombo Has Narrow
 Escape From Injury

A light Ford truck, No. 13-091, owned by Neri Brothers and driven by Charles Polombo skidded and turned over at the junction of Corbin Place and Church street about 10 o'clock this morning. There is a bad spot filled with mud in the center of the street and the car tracks make it especially more dangerous for pass ing vehicles.
 The car approached the spot at an angle, skidded and overturned. The accident made terrific noise and people came running from all di- rections to aid the driver. who was thought to be hurt. The driver stepped out from the machine ap- parently unhurt from his experience, and it was just a short time before the machine was righted and on it's way. There was no damage done except a slight bend in the front right mud guard, and the right side of the top was scra ped a little.

KIDNAPPER RETURNS BOY; SPURNS RANSOM
Father Leaves $25,0OO As Agreed, But Money is Not
 Thken-Youngster Safe.

Lexington, Ky. March 26.-Paul Little, 12 year old son of E. R. Lit tie, Lexington capitalist who has been held for ransom by kidnappers, was found this morning locked in g. room at a hotel.
 MT. and Mrs. Little first learned the whereabouts of their son when
 he telephoned his home from the hotel room. He said he had been kept a prisoner there since Wednes-
 day night. Investigation disclosed that the room had been reserved in advance by man registered as J. c. Cox of Cincinnati.
 The boy disappeared Wednesday afternoon from in front of the Lex ington post office where he had been
 seen in conversation with man. Playmates said he told them he was
 to be given a dollar to deliver a box of candy. Soon afterward the father received a note stating that his son Paul was being held for ransom Little would not state posi- lively but inimated that the amount asked for was $25,0OO. He declared he would abide by the kidnapper's demands, that he did not mind pay ing the money, and only wanted the safe return of his son.
 At the appointed hour 7:30 o'clock last night Little deposited a package containing the ransom money in a Main street garbage can. When he returned a half hour later the pack l age remained intact. Believing the 1 kidnapped failed to show up for ! fear of being double crossed" Lit 1 tie pocketed the money and went home, intending today to seek other 1 means of obtaining his son.
 l At 7:0S o'clock this morning the key for! the room in which the boy 1 was found was turned in at the hotel desk. At 7:15 Mrs. Little called to the telephone, was overjoyed to hear the voice of her missing son. Moth i ing has been seen of the MT Cox l since he left the hotel at o'clock The maid, on the sixth floor of the 1 hotel said she had not been able to 1 get into the room for two, days, o1 i ever since the boy was kidnapped | She saw the man enter the room and
 gave a description of him. She said he was about 5 feet inches tall weighing probably ITO to 175 pounds rather rough looking and wore g , brown suit and a soft black, round ] hat. A sign was found in the room printed like the letter to MT. Little in which the demand for S25.OO(

Sen. Borah Declares That Already Campaign Ex- penditures Have Reached Shameless Proportions.
AIMS HIS ATTACK
 AT GENERAL WOOD

Washington, March 26.-Charging that war profiteers had combined to control the republican and demo- cratic national conventions Senator Borah, republican, Idaho, told the senate today that the pre-convention expenditures of some presidential candidates presented a shameless situation" promising a "saturnalia of corruption" unless congress called a halt.
 Senator Borah's charges, which were made in presenting his bill for limitation of pre-convention eXpendl- lures, started a political debate in which senators on both sides of the chamber joined.
 Reading a published story that testimonials endorsing Major Gen. eral Leonard Wood were being pur- chased in Indiana at the rate of $2.5O a piece, Senator Borah said he had been advised that plenty of affidayits to the same effect were on file in a neighboring state"
 Attacks Wood Campaign.
 If these men who have supposed that you can purchase the nomina- tion are beginning by paying $2.50 for testimonials Senator Borah asked, what will they pay for votes?
 General Woods managers state that the managers for Governor Lowden are spending more money than they are. That is their defense. I am inclined to think that that is true. There are some evidences of it. Here is the shameless situation. Certain candidates are charged with having made enormous expenditures and they apparently have turned themselves over to a coterie of men of vast wealth and are permitting those men to conduct their cam paigu. To the man in the street 1t has every appearance of an attempt to deliberately control with money the national convention.
 If these gentlemen will frankly tell us where the money is coming from I would be willing to accept their explanation. But when they remain silent there is only one infer ence to be drawn and that is that the charges are true"

Washington, March 26.-The Ger mans, by their superior gunnery, turned the British on their heads, at the battle of Jutland, Rear Admiral Plunkett declared today before the senate committee Investigating the navy's conduct of the war
 Admiral Plunkett was test1fylng as to the need for keeping the navy per sonnel at full strength so men might be adequately trained. He did not go into details as to the Jutland battle and was asked no questions regarding it by the committee.
 The admiral, who commanded the great naval battery of 14-inch guns on the western front, was the fourth witness in the investigation Of Rear Admiral Sims charges that the navy department failed to cooperate fully with the Allies early in the war, and all his testimony was devoted to the matter of personnel.
 Navy Was Inefficient.
 He told the committee the navy was without sufficient men When the war began. ST ...
 If we had been up against Ger many at the outbreak of the war; he said. i've would have been paying in demnity today. and all because we did not have the trained men,
 We didn't have the 4ien because MT. Daniels would not let us have them and would not let us do anything to get them." .z
 Tells of UnpreparedmesS.
 Charges thatf they navy departm ent took steps to prevent reports reaching the public regarding q shortage Of personnel in the navy before the United States entered the war, were made before the, committee by Captain Joseph K. Taussig of the naval War college at Newport, R. 1.
 Captain. Taussig. who was on duty at the navy department prior to the war and later served on destroyers overseas, said that Secretary Daniels in his annual report in 1914 stated that the numerical strength Of the navy was adequate and in 1915 said that only an additional 10000 men were necessary. The witness told the committee that the departm ents pol icy with regard to personnel was one of unpreparedness rather than pre- paredness even when war with Ger many apparently was inevitable.' -7
