SToWAWAYs FOIL CAPTAIN
Three Italian Boys Who Swan To
Liner With Big Cheese Arrive

Three Italian Boys Who Swan To
Liner With Big Cheese Arrive
New York.-Three young stow
aways who agreed that they wanted
to come to America because chances
were better here than in Italy, were
taken to Ellis Island yesterday after
the Italian liner San Giorgio had
reached her pier. Captain Lavatelli
had been determined that he would
take no unlisted passengers out from
Naples. When his fifty-one cabin and
,063 steerage passengers were on
board they were carefully checked
up and watcher was placed on the
vessel.
/ When the vessel was two days out,
however, the three stowaways were
dragged from under the canvas cover
of one of the big lifeboats. The last
one out was clutching the remains of
an enormous cheese.
Carrying the cheese and wearing
little clothing, they said they had
dropped into the waters of the Bay
of Naples and started out to where
long way from shore but, they said,
the liner was anchored. 1t was quite
they had taken turns in carrying the
cheese. 1t was very dark when they
finally came alongside. Fearing that
there might be someone on deck, they
had clung to the anchor chain and
supported the cheese until about mid
night, then they climbed up the chains
and reached the deck unobserved. The
first man up carried the cheese and
the other two boosted him along.
The trio were downcast when they
learned that they would be returned
to their native land.

cONFEsSES TO KILLING

Gaffney Sept. 25.-After having
stoutly denied his guilt since No.
vemjber IL, the date on which he was
arrested charged with the murder of
hs father, Bob Davis, seventeen-year
old son of Will Davis yesterday
broke down in his cell at the Chero-
kee County Jail and admitted to
Sheriff J. E. Watkins and S. C. Lit
tlejohn, a reporter for the Gaffney
Ledger, that he fired the fatal shot
which killed his father and that the
killing followed dispute which had
taken place early in the morning,
although the young negro stoutly
maintains that he fired in self de-
fense.
The crime was committed on Sep
tember and not until September IL
was the body discovered. Bob Davis
claiming during that period that his
father had gone to Spartanburg to
visit sick relative. Attention was
finally directed to the field where the
body lay and when physicians made
an examination, they were not able
to determine exactly the manner by
which the, dead man met his death.
They expressed it as their opinion,
however, that he came to his death
as result of a blow inflicted by
some blunt instrument, and the con-
fession of yesterday was therefore
something of a surprise to the Off
GERS and fhe physicians as we'll. Ac-
cording to the story told by the boy,
he and his father had a quarrel while

breakfast was being prepared, but
later going to the field, the father
taking a shotgun with him., The
story continues that they renewed
the misunderstanding after they
reached the field and the boy claims
that his father advanced with a
stick and that beng in fear that his
father might kill him, he seized the
shotgun and fired one time, tn
fatal shot taking effect in his par
ent's forehead and causing instant
death.

CASE OF MYSTERIES TREAT
ED BACKSTAGE.

New York.-A capacity matinee
audience in the Sam n. Harris Thea
tire in West Forty second Street got
an unexpected thrill in the comedp
"Six Cylinder Love" yesterday, when
an unexpected thrill in the comedy
to crash down fimsy fence, rolled
on over the footlights and dropped
its front end in the first row of
seats. -.
The managers of the theatre said
that no one was injured, although
one woman who was in a seat in the
path of the erratic car became hys-
terical and was taken to the back
stage dressing rooms by members of
the cast. Thomas Oliphant of the
staff of Sam n. Harris, said that the
woman was merely excited.
It is part of the business Of the
play that the automobile shall be
started up on the stage and run
through the fence so that prospect
tive buyer on the other side can see
the car and "hear the motor rum"
Persons in the audience yesterday
noticed that the motor appeared to,
start jerkily when Ralph sippariy,
playing the part Of the automobile
salesman, started it up for the roll
across the stage toward the fence. d,
The first intimation of the audi
ence that they were about to see
something not planned by the stage
manager, was when the front wheel
of the car crunched into the foot
lights with an ominous noise. Ernest
Truck, the star of the play, had
noticed that the automobile had not
stopped at its usual place, but he
was powerless to prevent the car
from fitting over the footlights to-
ward the front seats. s.
Those in the front seats in the
path of the car-or who thought
tey were-were able to get out of
the way before it dipped so that
the forward part rested on the brass
rail on the outer edge of the rooted
orchestra pit and three seats Of the
front row. Screams came from all
parts of the house. <
Mr.. Truck and the stage managers
hurried to the front of the stage as
the frightened salesman" scrambled
out of the car, and members of the
cast and theatre employees hurried
down to see whether any one had
been injured. Stage employees scran,-
bled down from the stage and rolled
the car back. Then one Of the stage
managers announced that no one
was hurt and that the play would go
on. Mr.. Truck also said a few words
to allay the alarm of the audience
AS a precaution against a repetition
of the accident, a cable probably will
be attached to the car.

WAR GRAFTERS
MAY BE IMMUNE
Statute of Limitations for
PrOfiteers Soon to
Expire.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-Scores Of
profteers who looted the Federal Treas
ury during the war, have escaped prose
cution, the Department of Justice ad-
mitted today. Unless the Senate passes
the House bill extending the statute OF
limitation from three to six years with
in the next few days all the postwar
profteers will be immune from prosecu-
tion, they said.
When the armistice was declared three
years ago, the grafters among the camp
and cantonment builders made last
grab for spoils. 1t is those cases that
the department hopes to prosecute If the
statute of limitations Is extended. The
profteers Of before that date have es-
capped prosecution by the operation Of
the statute of limitations.
