iowa, Wounded and Left
For Dead, Escapes Captors
Son of U. S. Agent, Who Was
Kidnapped by Cuban Bandits,
Stabbed Five Times

SAGUA LA GRANDE, July 29.-Eu-
gene iowa, twenty-year- son of the
American consular agent, captured by
bandits and held for $4,000 ransom,
escaped yesterday, but was severely
wounded when he made his break for
liberty. There were five dagger
wounds in the young mans body when
he was found to-day in n ranch house
in which he had sought shelter, but he
was able to give esauthorities infor-
nation which was expected to lead to
the capture of the bandits.
At hospital to which iowa was
hurried for treatment, he told the
police of his capture Thursday by four
bandits, one of whom had stopped him
earlier on the road and asked for a
ride in his car. Securely bound, he
was marched into the hills and kept
under close guard while his captors
sent a messenger to Sagua to demand
the ransom. Fearing rural guards, the
bandits started to march further into
the hill country yesterday.
iowa said he managed to loosen his
bonds, and seizing stone felled the
bandit ahead of him. The others then
attacked him with daggers, stabbing
him five times, once in the lung. They
left him for dead, but he staggered and
crawled to the ranch house.

When they reach manhood, then there
will be real peace"

Film ON Kitchener,
Barred in England,
Is Mystery Here
Local Customs Men Say
They Never Heard of Ii,
but Washington Officials
Have Protest i'm Hand

If the motion picture which purports
to tell how Kitchener was betrayed is
being made the subject of an investiga-
ton at the Customs House here, there
was nobody around the Customs House
yesterday afternoon who knew Of it.
Further, there was nobody around the
Custom House who had ever heard Of it.
The statement has been made by the
J. Parker Read Jr. Productions that the
film is being held up at Customs, al
though the claim is made by its owners
that there is nothing legally to prevent
British Government is anxious to pre-
vent it's presentation here on the
ground that it shows the great British
war hero in an unfavorable light.
All this seemed reasonable to customs
officers who discussed the matter yes
terday, but they protested a profound
ignorance of the present location of
the film, or what reasons might be ad
vanced to prevent its entry.
Of course if and when the I'm finally
is put into local theaters, it can do no
harm to interest the public in it in ad-
vance.
WASHINGTON, July 2s.-The Treas
ury Department, officials said to-day,
still has under Amusement an appeal
made to the department early in the
year by the British Embassy against
admission to this country of the film
"How Kitchener Was Destroyed"
1t was explained at the embassy that
after the film had been barred in Eng
land representatives of the British
government sought to have it kept out
of the United States. The appeal also
was presented by the embassy to Will
II. Hays, head of the producers and dis
tributors.
1t was said by Treasury officials that
the customs service was to determine
shortly the ACCESSIBILITY Of admitting
the film.
