American Soldiers
On Rhine in Germany
Don't Want to Return,

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire
Washington, June 26.-American
soldiers on the Rhine don't want to
come home. Many of them insist
OH re-enlisting and as it is the policy
of the War department not to refuse
rc-enlistment of men with good rec
ords, the practice is proving en-
barrassing in the face of the absolute
necessity of reducing the strength
of the army to the size decreed by
congress.
The number of officers in the
American army of occupation has
been reduced to that required for a
force of about $500 enlisted men, but
the enlisted strength in Germany re-
mains at about 10000 men. The
original intention was to have an en-
listed strength on the Rhine of ap-
proximately 5000.
Secretary Weeks explained that it
was expected that the enlisted force
on the Rhine would be reduced to
about $500 by July l. Those who
desire to return are for the most part
soldiers who have married German
woman and who do not care to re-
enlist. There has been. an epidemic
OF these marriages.

Unc1ad Bathers
Annoy Residents
Vigilante Committee Formed
To Protect Beach From
Moonlight Frolics.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bes Leased Wire
Chicago, June 2o.--A vigiiante
committee has been formed to pro-
tect the beach between Seventy
first and Seventy-eighth streets from
the frolics of the moonlight bathers.
For seven years citizens along
this stretch have been bothered by
men and women who come thither
to swim and spoon and sing and
dance and cool themselves tlnattired
in the breeze.
The, matter came to a head the
other night when one of the long
suffering citizens broke up sugar
barrel and prepared to paddle the
annoyers.
Saturday night the tigilante COM
mittee held its first meeting at the
home of John T. Russell, 1888 South
Shore drive. At this meeting $500
was pledged for attorneys fees and
the first step will be to secure an in
junction to restrain Tat and Hey
worth from erecting a prospective
dance hall on the beach.
1T is becoming absolutely un-
bearabie," said P. J. McDonagh,,
who acted as spokesman for the
vigilantes. "We have been fighting it
for seven years.
"They come to the beaches clad
in the scantiest of bathing suits
sometimes at night entirely without
covering. They dance obscenely, use
profane and obscene language"

Sharp Curve in
Boulevard Makes
Mess Of Joyride
Two Girls and Three Men Ar.
rested on Intoxication
Charges When Car
Turns Turtle.

Two girls, young and pretty; three
young men, all having partaken lib
orally of liquor, SO police said; a
brand new touring car and a sharp
turn on Happy Hollow boulevard,
three blocks south of Dodge street,
combined in forming a mess which
required the efficiency of two police
men and a police surgeon to un-
scramble.
The party was JOY riding. The
driver Of the car, so he told the desk
sergeant, "was just rambling along
the boulevard" when he came to a
turn which he did not know ex-
listed.
Il slammed on my brakes and the
car turned turtle" he said.
The driver was hurled through the
windshield. The younger girl lost a
wrist watch and most of her clothing
was torn to shreds and the others
suffered scratches and bruises on all
portions of their anatomy. A third
girl, so the others said, was in the
car, but ran for home after the ac-
cident. The demolished machine
stopped on the brink of a 25-foot
enbankment.
At the police station, those in the
party gave their names and address
es as Julia and Emelina Johnson,
l548 South Twenty-fourth street;
Harry Harkins, l415i Missouri ave-
riue; c. J. 'Regan, 47221-2 South

ieation' and the driver of the car

aloof from partisan commitments.
'If the women divide up with the

New York Curb Market
Ends Outdoor Career

New York, June 26.-The New
York curb market eneded its outdoor
life Saturday.
When the noon hour came, the
babbel that has marked the curb's
operations on Broad street, died to
murmur after a final roar. Monday
the curb will have a roof over its
head.
But the final roar was unprece-
dented. Brokers multiplied the
shouts, the furious wiggling of fin
gers, the waving OF arms, the swing
ing of caps and the mad milling that
have made the curb seem more like
band of deaf mutes than busi-
ness body.
Up into the air went scores of
vari-colored caps and bizzare jack
ets-curious habiliments by which
brokers perched beside telegraph
wires in windows above had been
able to tell their representative from
the other fellows.
Nobody agrees on the date when
the business of dealing in unlisted
securities on the curb started, but
1873 marked organization of the as
sociation. Its members transacted
business in rain or snow, sleet or
sunshine.

Hears Child's Cry
Nine Miles Away
Jailed Mothers Assertion
That Son Calling for Her
Proves to Be True.
Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire
Chicago, June 26.-Although she
has no knowledge of the occult OF
thought transference, Mrs. Burnice
Soble, heard the cry of her sick
child, Henry, in the Isolation hos
pital, nine miles away, and was
committed to the hospital ward OF
the county jail in the belief she was
afflicted with hallucinations.
She and her husband had been
sent to Jail by Judge Horner be-
cause they could not produce note
of $500, necessary to the settlement
of an estate. Neither husband nor
wife can speak English. Through
an interpreter they denied knowledge
of the note and the judge sentenced
them to jail until one of them con-
fessed.
A month dragged by and there
was no one to care for the three
children, aged 6, 4 and 2. Social
service workers finally took them to
an orphans home. Last Friday night
Henry, aged 4, became i'll and was
taken to the Isolation hospital. At
about the same hour his mother, un-
aware of what had been done, be-
came hysterical in the jail and de-
clared her child was dying and call
ing for her. Jail authorities thought
her demented and transferred her to
the Jail hospital.
Social service workers went before
Judge Horner today and told him all
three children would die unless their
mother was restored to them and he
ordered her immediate release.

Four Lincoln y.
Disabled Vets
Go to Detroit
Will Attend National Meeting
OF Disabled Sol9liers' Or.
ganization as Delegates
Legion Backs Them.

Lincoln, June 26. = The Lincoln
post of the Disabled American Vet
Grams of the World War will send
a four-inan delegation to the first
national convention which opens in
Detroit Monday, July 81. At the
regular semi-monthly meeting of the
local post Tuesday night John Davey,
Ralph S. Breitenstein, John w.
Schmolz and c. S. Roger were elect
ed to represent the Lincoln post.
While the post has been organized
only short time it numbers more
than 40 ex-service men who were
partially or. totally disabled during
the war. Regular meetings are held
in the American Legion club rooms
the second and fourth Tuesday Of
each month. A number of local mat
ters affecting disabled veterans have
been satisfactorily handled by the
post.
1t was made possible for the dele
cation to go to Detroit through the
kindness of the Lincoln Chamber Of
Commerce, which donated $40 a man
to the delegates. The post is putting
up another SIS. With reduced rail-
road fares the men will have to spend
very little of their own money.
The Lincoln men will hold pre-
liminary meeting and also meet with
the post before leaving, to receive in
structions as to the measures to sup
port. 1t is practically certain that
the plan advanced by the Seattle post
of introducing bill in congress to
give the disabled vets a loan when
they have finished their vocational
training and are ready to set up in
business, will receive the local orders
endorsement. The delegates will
also boost for some middle west city
as the seat Of the next national con-
vention.

Outrages.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, June 26.-Charges
that the coal miners strike in West
Virginia and Kentucky, which the
senate has just voted to investigate,
is the result of a conspiracy by the
United Mine Workers and the coal
operators of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio
and west Pennsylvania, was made
here today by Harry Olmsted, chair
man of the labor committee of the

ton. Olmsted, after welcoming the
senate investigation, said that evil
dence would be submitted to the
senate committee to show that work.
men have been murdered and wound
ed by the Mingo strikers, and added:
'We will show by confession of
strikers arrested that assaults were
planned at meetings of the local
branches of the United Mine Work
ers and conducted by men affiliated
with that organization. We will
show that the strike was, not the
spontaneous or even the planned act
of the workmen living and working
in this field, but came in the nature
of a siege contrived and conducted
by state and national officers of the
mine workers organization; that its
origin really dates back more than
20 years, to a time when the United
Mine Workers entered into con-
spiracy, which has run ever since,
with the coal operators of Indiana,
Illinois, Ohio and western Pennsyl-
vania, to organize the West Virginia
coal fields, by any methods and. at
any cost, for the purpose of driving
the West Virginia coal from the
Western markets-that conspiracy
being directed against the West Vir-
ginia miners and operators, alike,
and so. necessarily, affecting the in
terests of every citizen in the state" :"
