Spirited Debate Looms as lnklinas of
American Plan to Fix Maximum
Tonnage Reach Foreign
Delegations.

Washington.-The greatest interest
Is being manifested In the plan of limi.
tatisn of naval armament which the
American delegation will submit to the
Washington conference. II has already
been made known that this plan is
ready and will form the basis for dis
cussion of the primary question for
which the conference was called.
That the plan will he combatted is
certain. for inklings oiA some of the
salient features have, cached foreign
delegations aud their naval men are
inclined to show a disposition to take
issue with what is proposed The main
objection is based on the understand-
ing that the plan proposes limitation
of naval armament through an agree
ment to fix maximum tonnage or dis
placement beyond which the subscrib-
ing nations will not go in maintaining
a feet.
This proposal is TO be combatted on
the theory that the capital ship, dread
nought battleships and cruisers, should
be the unit of Limitation. In other
words, there should be fixed rule that
each nation. should limit fits number
of capital ships, the number or fight
ing strength in each case to be agreed
upon, leaving the powers to determine
whether they shall retain or scrap YES
sells Of other classes. This would en-
able government to retain its battle
ships while disearding vessels not so
useful in determining naval strength.
The American plan is said to be com
parative, in that it contempIates not
merely a reduction and limitation OF
armament on a tonnage basis, but
takes into consideration the naval
strength obtained by merchant ma
rine capable of being armed and used
for hostile purposes. The fertilization
of naval bases and the possession by
the participating governments Of places
capable Of being strongly fortified are
said TO figure also IN the American
plan, the theory being that a govern
ment which reduces It's naval strength
under the terms of agreement enacted
at the conference, should be given the
right 10 make w the deficiency in its
positive strength by erecting fortifca-
lions for defensive purposes at strate-

SILBA
MURDER SUSPECT

Although the officers of Douglas
county had hoped to secure evidence
to hold the man suspected of murder
ing Francisco Silba at the school
house grounds on July 80, they have
been unable to secure any tangible
facts that would connect him with the
murder and he has been released from
the county Jail at Minden where he
has been held since the murder was
committed.
The suspect was at the schoolhouse
ON the night that the murder was
committed. and although the officers
feel positive that he knows more
about the affair than he has ever ad-
mitted, 1t has been impossible to Sc
sure evidence upon which to secure
"a conviction.
There is a reward of $500 for the
person who will give information that
will lead to the arrest and conviction
of the person or persons who CON-
mitted the cowardly murder, but as
months go by it seems probable that
the guilty one will never be appre-
hended.

For eight days, Mr.. Jacobsen searched

them. Usually when band of sheep
estrays they fall prey to coyotes and
their carcasses are found, giving evi-
dence of the loss. However, in this
instance, no such condition existed,
and after spending eight days hunting
for the lost sheep Mr.. Jacobsen has
about arrived at the conclusion that
they have either made their way to
some other band of sheep or have been
stolen.
Just before going to press, Mr.
Jacobsen received a report that a
small band of sheep had been seen
near Carter Station Wednesday after
noon and upon receipt of the news he
left Immediately for that locality with

BAD WAR RECORD;
NO CITIZENSHIP

! The war records of two Basques
and an Italian led Judge Taber to
deny admission to citizenship to the
three men in the district court at
,Elko, according to the Independent
The applications of Fred Puccinelli
Mariana Aralucca, and Roman Etche-
barrieta, were each denied by the
court upon the ground of their re-
nouncement of allegiance to the Uni
ted States In order to claim the pro-
lection of citizenship in foreign land
when the call to arms was issued in
the United States. While the denial
was not specific in each case, it was
only held pending until photostatic
copy of the statements of each appli-
cant at the time of their being called
in the draft could be secured from
Washington and from information in
the possession of the examiner there
is no indication that any other deci-
sion will be entered by the court.
Puccinelli stated in defense of his ap-
plication that he did not remember
just what statements he made at the
time he was called in the draft.
