EIGHT YEARS AGO

Oct. 26, 1914.-Germans broke thru
Belgian line along the User in drive
toward Dunkirk, but were unable to
proceed further. The little remains
of the Belgian army, about $4,000
men, now settled down to defend this
tiny corner of Belgium, all that was
left of their country, and with some
Allied help kept it for three and hall
years, when the Allied line began to
move forward again. The Belgian
capital was in the French city OF
Havre.

SEATTLE, May 27-Joseph Bethel, real estate dealer of this city, yes- terday filed suit to recover $250,000 damages against c. D. Hillman, for merly prominent Seattle resident, who also engaged in the real estate business. The gist of the action is libel.

DETECTIVE IS INDICTED FOR
 KIDNAPPING

NEW YORK, May 27. - Edmund Leigh, the private detective who tes- tified in the Stillman divorce case at Poughkeepsie, was today indicted by the county grand jury on a charge of kidnapping and wiretapping. The in dictment grows out of the much ad- yertised love affair between August Probst, a Swiss butler, and promi- nent Pittsburg society girl. Probst preferred charges against Leigh claim ing that he was hired to break up the love affair in question and at tempted to do so by kidnapping him, and spiriting him out of the country under duress. A man named Peter Larson is also indicted charged With assisting Leigh in his illegal attempts to kidnap Probst. Leigh received a great deal of notoriety in the Stillman divorce case. It was Leigh who tes- tified in the closing days of the case two weeks ago that he had paid Fred Beauvais, the halfbreed Indian guide, alleged to be Mrs. Stillman's para mour, fifteen thousand dollars for love letters purporting to have been writ ten by Mrs. Stillman to Beauvais.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-It wac an nounced today that the House Com mittee on Military Affairs, had at last definitely agreed upon a proposa, for the completion and development of the giant water power project commenced by the government during the late war at Muscle Shoals, Alabama.

 The plan agreed upon has not been made public. Yet, while the proposal has been held in strictest confidence bv the members of the committee, it is learned on good authority, that the committee plan closely follows the terms offered by Ford, with the ex- ception that the Georgia and Ala bama steam plant has been eliminated from the property to be disposed of'

ALL QUARRELS NOT CONFINED
 TO ALASKANS

WASHINGTON, May 27.-The at- tacks by Senator Caraway of Arkan- sas upon Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty's connection with the re- lease of Charles w. Morse, the ship ping magnate, from the federal peni- tentiary at Atlanta in 1909, are still being aired in official circles here. At the time of the first speech in the Senate by Caraway on May 9, Senator Watson of Indiana replied to the Ar kansan, coming to Daugherty's de- fense and claiming that the attorney general had no connection whatever with the release of Morse. Later ex- President Taft, and former Attorney General George W. Wickersham made a statement in which they declared that Daugherty in no way influenced them in their decision to release the shipping man. Senator Caraway re- newed his attacks however, and quot ed from certain correspondence al- legged to have been written by Daugh- erty to a Georgian attorney at the time of the release. In order to make his position clear on the matter, Daugherty yesterday made public letter he had written to Senator Wat sol advising the latter, that Watson's statement in the Senate disclaiming all connection of Daugherty with the Morse release was incorrect Daugh- erty said in the letter that he had re- ceived S4,O00 for his services in the case, but he asserted this sum was only sufficient to pay half the ex- penses he was put to in connection herewith, and did not allow anything for compensation.
