COCO
GOES To PRESENT
K|D|VAP EVIDENCE.

NEW ORLEANS. La, March A.
Attorney General A. V. Coco and
George S. Guion left here last night
for Bastrop, La, where on Monday
a grand jury will be drawn to con-
slider the evidence adduced at the
recent open hearing into hooded
band outrages in Morehouse parish,
alleged acts of the Iku Klux Khan.
Indictments against forty to fifty
persons will be asked by the state.
r. Semmes Walmsley, second as
sistant attorney general and State
Senator Howard Warren, of Shreve.
port, will reach Bastrop the early
part of next week.
Monday will be given over to the
organizing of the grand jury and
the charge by District Judge Odom.
Mr.. Coco said data pertaining to the
murder of Watt Daniel and T. F.
Richard and the lesser Morehouse
crimes will be placed before the
jury Tuesday.
Mr.. Coco said he intended to place
the responsibility of the jury's ac-
tons in the matter squarely up to
the people Of Morehouse parish. He
said that if klansmen are selected
on the jury he will place them upon,
their honor to indict for the crimes
he will charge. In addition he said
he would ask them to repudiate
their khan oath and support that of
the United States and the sovereign
state of Louisiana.
Mr.. Coco said he would question
the jurymen as to their khan affil-
iations but the fact of membership
in the khan will not in itself disqual-
ify a man to act as a juryman.
"Six men on the federal grand
jury at Houston, Texas, Wednesday
admitted to Federal Judge Hutche-
son that they were klansnen," said
Mr.. Coco. THAT same jury the
next day returned an indictment
charging Edward Young Clarke, of
Atlanta, former acting imperial wiz
ard of the Ku Klux Khan, with vio-
lating the Mann act. Those six men
who admitted their membership in
the khan did their duty regardless
of their oath of the khan and where
a high officer of their order was in.
volved. I have hopes that klans-
men, if there be any on the More
house jury, will likewise do their
duty as the Texas klansmen did"

Sea Mirage Shows
Ship Upside Down;
Propeners Cunning Air

SYDNEY, March Am extra
ordinary sea mirage was witnessed
recently in Spencers gulf, South
Australia, by officers of the steam
ship Trevithick, bound to fireman
tie.
The display began with the APP
pearance Of ship ahead, of which
the smoke and tunnels were plainly
seen. A little later. between sky and
sea appeared a distorted vessel like
the creation Of a mad shipbulider,
possessing neither lines nor any dis
tinct type of construction, upside
down, with crazy propellers madly
churning the vacant sky.
At one time the display took the
form of an inverted picture of doz'
ems of vessels of all sizes, moving
in different directions. Then sud
denly the ships merged into one.
Officers of the Trevithick declar'
ed the phenomenon was the most
wonderful in thpir oynpriPOPp

Occupation Of Additional
Cities and Cuno's Pro-

Lead to Crisis

BERLIN, March 3.-(By Associ-

attributed in the Berlin press today
to the occupation by the French of
Mannheim, Karlsruhe and Darn
stadt, and all available dispatches
bearing upon the development re-
ceive prominent display.
Some quarters see in the extended
occupation a grave peril to the
south German states and the belief
is expressed that Chancellor Cuno's
visit next Monday to Munich, stop
ping off at Stuttgart en- route, may
have unusual significance, in view
of the new advance.
Special dispatches from Karlsruhe
report that an official protest has
been made by the Baden govern
ment, which at the same time is
urging the populace to remain
calm.
Mannheim, Karlsruhe and Darn
stadt are the largest and most i'm
portant cities occupied in the south
ern Rhineland since the Ruhr &C
ton began and the American troops
were withdrawn.
Mannheim holds a most promi-
nent place in south Germany as a
transfer point for coal and grain,
all shipments out of the Ruhr for
lower Germany being distributed
from there. The city includes more
than $4,000 acres of state-owned
harbor space.
