Eager to Realize
on Oil Deposits

Teheran, Persia Ismail Agha
Simko, the Kurdish rebel chief who
for two years has been setting at de-
fance the authority of the Persian
government, has fed across the from
tier into Turkish Kurdistan. His
forces have been routed by Ria
Khan, the Persian war minister, who
is COMMUNICATIVE chief of the Persian
army. Simko's stronghold at Che
RICH, west of Lake Urmia, in north
ern Persia, was captured after bitter
fighting. Many guns and prisoners
were taken.
The internal situation in Persia con-
tinues unsettled. In the absence of a
stable central government, robber
bands and tribesmen have been loot
ing and plundering, and many of the
principal roads are insecure.
Outside of tales of disorder, oil is
the one absorbing topic of converse
ton. The country has rich petroleum
deposits, and the men in authority
are eager to realize on this national
wealth. And in this connection the
following story is told:
Is seems the government, some time
ago, considered granting 50-year
concession for oil exploitation joint
ly to an English and an American
company. One Of the companies
thereupon made an advance of ST.
100000 to the government, based on
the assumption that the concession
ultimately would be made operative.
At least that was the understanding
of the oil men.
Once in hand, the million was ex-
pended quickly. 1t went to pay
troops in the field, and lot of over
due salaries to officials.
When the government learned that
the advance was conditional upon eX-
elusive concessions, there was trou-
BILE, for in the meantime it had be-
come actively engaged in negotiations
with other oil interests, looking to
get as much as it could from the po-
tential wealth under the ground. 1t
made every effort to get back the
100000, but too late. Every cent
had been expended.

Times Visit
the Azores Islands
(By Associated Press. J


Lisbon-Living conditions in the
Azore Islands are very bad, and the
outlook for the Islanders is most
gloomy, according to Jose Rebe1lo de
Bettencourt, a journalist of the islands
who has recently come to Lisbon.
The chief cause of the trouble is
that foreign ships have virtually Civ
en- up putting into the island ports
for repair and supplies. And things
ashore are going from bad to worse.
The ships do not come principally
because the local authorities have
succombed to the temptation of pro-
fteerin. Meat has been and is sold
today, to residents at one escudo a
kilogram. But the town hall authori-
ties have monopoly in the sale of
this commodity and they have fixed
the price to foreign ships at twenty
escudos kilogram. American and
other captains have been instructed
by the owners not to replenish at the
Azores unless compelled to- do so, and
furthermore, these vessels now car
ry larger supplies of preserved
meats. Hence they give the Azores
a wide berth.
The cost of living in the islands
has advanced greatly. The regulation
against the export of cattle has
brought cattle breeders to poverty,
and many farm tenants have been
compelled to relinquish their hold
ings to the owners.

Princes Pearls
Cause Much Gossip
(By Associated Press

London.-The fact that the Prince of
Wales is collecting pearls for neck
lace hsa furnished another topic of
absorbing interest for discussion over
the teacups, and there are flutters in
the hearts of those interested in the
royal matrimonial plans.
It will be remembered that Lord
Lascelles did exactly the same thing
befroe the announcement of his en-
gagement to Princess Mary. But even
with that precedent, it is not safe to
assume that any exciting news will
follow the revelation of the Princes
interest in such matters, for pearl col
lecting among the English nobility is a
time-honored occupation.
Many priceless collections of pearls
have been owned by Englishmel4 in the
past, but very few of them. are intact
at the present time. The Duchess of
Devonshire pearls, which were collect
Devonshire still possesses the famous
Ell fifty years ago at cost said to
have been $4,000 ponds.
The Duke of Buckingham, during the
reignNof Charles I, was able to collect
the most famous pearls then in Eng
land, but at the time of the Common
wealth they were taken to Paris and
sold to various dealers there
Matching pearls nj the present day is
hard task, and, of course, it requires
very long and well-flled purse.
Even when money is no object, it re-
quires much time and infinite patience.
All the markets of the world have to
be searched, and each pearl must be
considered in relation to all the others
in order to form a perfect necklace

Antelope Threatened
With Extinction
by Associated Press.)

Yellowstone Park, Wyo. : The Am
erican antelope is threatened with ex-
tinction, according to officials here of
the department of the interior. I'm
less extensive protective measures are
taken, officials declared, an animal
widely admired for its coloring, deli
cate proportions and zephyr-like
movements, soon will be seen only in
museums.
There are probably not more than
5000 antelope remaining in the Unit
ed States, according to statement,
and the total number in the park is
about $50. In 1908 the number was
estimated as 1000.
The cause of the antelope has been
taken up by the American Bison So
ciety of New York. A number of So
cieties. interested in game preserva-
ton will meet jointly in the east soon
to consider a program to protect an
telope. Proposed measures include
provision for an adequate winter
range for Yellowstone herds, and for
herds remaining in Oregon, Nevada,
Idaho, Wyoming, Utah and California.
Last winter nearly a third of the
Yellowstone Park herds were lost as
result of heavy SHOWS and the de-
predations of coyotes, wolves and
mountain lions. A part of this loss
was made up by birth of the young
this spring.
The most serious menace to their
preservation here is the absence of
suitable winter range, according to
these officials. Besides running the
risk of starvation, owing to scant for
age if the SHOWS are deep, they are
easy prey for predatory animals.
The possible winter range for an
telope here at present is about 5000
acres, which must be shared with the
deer, elk and other grazing animals.
The summer range covers about
| 100000 acres.
Park authorities will withdraw part
of the summer range from tourist use
next season, as the presence of tour
lists is said to keep the nervous ami
mails on the qui vive and to inter
fere with breeding.

JUDGE FREES MOTHER
OF DOLL TWINS
Court Points Failure to Prove that
Infants Are Not Alive and
Dismisses Charges.
(By Associated Press Leased wire.)

(By Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Hammond, Ind. Mrs. Hazel Nc
Nally, mother of Hammond's "doll
baby" twins, was freed of a charge
of numbering the mysterious infants
Friday afternoon when Judge Henry
c. Cleveland ruled the state had failed
to prove the infants are not still
alive.
The 26 year old wife, who has grin
ned and >giggled through four days Of
the preliminary hearing while wit
nesses attempted to fasten on her the
charge of double murder, collapsed
and fell fainting to the floor with the
F7cheers of $50 women courtroom fans
applauding her acquittal ringing in
her ears.
By strange paradox of the law,
the defense, which maintained the
twins "born" to Mrs. McNally last
December were only inanimate crea-
tions of china and straw dressed in
baby clothes won it's victory because
the state was unable to prove that
the mystery babies were not at the
pI0S0uI AHOHlSuC 1lNlhSJ pASdIAiAS Au-
man beings with actual flesh and
blood.
Mystery Remains Unsolved.
The missing corpus defiti, lawyers
phraseology for the "body of the
crime" proved stumbling block to
the state and because Of it the mys-
terry of the Mentally twins, whether
they ever existed, whether they were
only dressed up dolls, or whether, as
the state commended, they were first
real babies and then dolls, remains
unsolved
Sustaining the motion of Samuel
Swartz of South Bend, attorney for
Mrs. McNally, for dismissal of the
charge, Judge Cleveland ruled that all
legal decisions maintained that some
proof that dead body actually exist
ed, that it came to its death by vio-
lence and that the persons charged
with the crime was in some way con-
nected with it's commission, was nee
essary before charge of murder could
be supported.
Hundreds of women and few men
fought and clawed and scratched
their way up the dark stairs to Ham
mond's city council chamber an hour
before the door was thrown open on
the final chapter in the case.

Federal Land Banks
Extend to POtO Rico
(By Associated Press. J

San Juan, P. r. Extension to
Porto Rico of the Federal Land bank,
authorized by Congress almost two
years ago, has been accomplished by
the opening in San Juan of a branch
of the Baltimore Land bank, after
several months of preparation, with
Ernest H. Thomas of Rushville, Ind,
in charge.
Slight notifications in the law to
make it applicable to Porto Rico have
been made, and already there are
many indications that the small farm
ers of the island are preparing to
avail themselves of the longtime
loans offered by the bank. The
maximum amount that may be Dor
rowed here is $4,000, just half the
maximum in the United States, but
inquiries indicate that the average ap-
plication for loans will not exceed
$4,000. The interest rate fixed fol
the island is six per cent. At .re-
cent meeting of farmers speaker
asked those who were paying two pei
cent per month to hold up their hands
and the number of hands raised was
large.
Representatives authorized to &C.
cept applications for loans have beer

Among American Colony.
(By Associated Press Leased wire)

Observation-Disclosures theories have
been advanced to, explain the disap-
pearance. of Phillip Shields, American
relief administration worker from Sim
brisk, in the Volga valley, but none has
materialized. The incident had caused
great sensation in Simbirsk, the
population of which includes many
families of the aristocracy, who have
looked upon the American relief work
ers with favor. The newspapers are
aiding in the search and the Simbirsk
district has been placarded far and
wide with Shields description and
offers of a liberal reward for definite
clue as to his whereabouts. Arthur
Ruhl, American author and former cor
respondent, who recently returned to
Moscow after inspecting the famine
areas for the American relief admin
istration, is i'll with pneumonia. The
doctors say his chances for recovery
are good.

Behaving like raving maniac and
terrorizing the entire neighborhood in
the vicinity of Newell and Market
streets, Frank Iaquinta was arrested
Sunday afternoon by the police and
placed in the city lookup for safe
keeping. The man is notorious
character who has already figured in
several of the shooting affairs which
took place on the west side year
ago during which Sam Chiappetti was
Iaquinta, murdered outright. The po-
lice believed that in the arrest of
Iaquinta Sunday they nipped in the
nick of time another embryo muir
der case.
1t was just after three o'clock of
the quiet Sunday afternoon when Ser
geant Schneeberger who was on desk
duty in the police station, received
mysterious call over the telephone
from an unknown person.
"The man who shot Chiappetti,"
said the voice in the telephone, "is
at the corner Of Newell and Market
streets, and if you don't get him at
once, another murder will be COM
mitted."
Carried Gun and Railroad Ticket.
The sergeant detailed Detective
Breidt and officer McGivern on the
case, and the two police officers found
Iaquinta at the corner designated.
They quickly and quietly placed him
under arrest and searched his person
for dangerous weapons Immediately.
A police positive Colt revolver, 81
caliber, was found as well as box
containing fifty shells. The police
managed to bring the man through
the city streets without danger, but
once Iaquinta found himself in the
police station, his insane rage knew
no bounds. The man tore out his
hair by fstfuls, threw money into
his mouth and chewed it and beat
his head against the radiator. He
threatened the police officers who ar
rested him and when finally placed in
the lookup he cried as a parting shot
through the bars, cts lucky for the
others that I'm in here!"
When Iaquinta's person was search
ed a second time at the police sta
ton, a railroad ticket to Indiana and
$106 was found in his pocket, show
ing, the police hold, that he had
planned to get away, perhaps after
achieving some desperate deed.
Struck Woman on Street.
Another incident which showed the
dangerous mental condition the man
was in, was told the police shortly
after his arrest 1t was said that a
woman who was acquainted with
Frank Iaquinta, met him Sunday
afternoon on Newell street, and
nodded pleasantly to him with the
greeting "Hello, Frank" Instead of
replying the police were told that
Iaouinto struck the woman knocking
he down to the sidewalk and then
passed on.
Iaquinta has been out on bonds of
1000 since August 25, when he was
bound over to the circuit court on
the charge of attempt to murder Sam
Chiappeti one Sunday last November.
Iaquinta's arrest occurred July 16
when he was recognized at the North
western depot by Police Officer
Schneeberger who was then a patrol
man travelling the west side beat. He
was placed under arrest by Detective
Breidt and L. Bauschelt at that time
when he carried .38 revolver load
ed. which he attempted to draw on
the police officers just as they ar
rested him, but was prevented. He
was later arraigned in the municipal
court and finally bound over for trial.
