STRANGE CHANGES IN OCEAN CURRENTS
Thousands of Fish Killed;
 Deserts Become JunglS

New York, April 8. - Strange changes in ocean currents which swept the west coast of South Arnerl- ca with such audiences that tnous- ands of fish and seabirds were kilieo and desert lands were converted into tropical jungles by torrentlal rains were reported by Captain George B. Dexter of the Grace liner santa Luisa, which has docked here after South American cruise.
 The ship passed through ne" xarm ocean current with tempera- lure as high as 75 degrees, Captain Dexter reported. At the same time vast stretches of sea covered by dead jelly fish and dead seabirds were en- countered. Captain Dexter said he believed the fish were killed by the warm current and the birds died after eating the decayed fish.
 The phenomena as told by Captain Dexter is described in an announce ment by the steamship company which says In part
 Ordinarily there is no rain1all along the South American coast from southern Ecuador to northern Chile because of the cold Humboldt current which flows northward from the Antarctic ocean. On the north ward voyage of the Santa Luisa iron Valparaiso, however, Captain Dexte' said that he was surprised to find warm current flowing southward, th' temperature of the water being a high as 75 degrees.

 The commissioner explained that he felt that Chapman had received an eminently fair trial and was handled by the court in commend able manner. "The verdict of guilty was a just and fair one he said, "and the sentence of death on the gallows is what Chapman deserves , These facts did not do away with the necessity of dealing with the testimony of Liebler, however, ac- cording to Commissioner Jackson. who pointed out that his statements did not deal directly with the mur- der and had no effect on the Jury' but only upon the public.

 Commissioner Jackson referred to Iiehler's story as incredible and said that he felt the board should get n copy of his testimony at the trial and give him an opportunity to ex- plain it. He said; If the testimony is truthful. 1t displays remarkable dumbness on the part of the police man."
 "The testimony of Liebler, who , was with Patrolman Walter Malona { when the latter arrested Shean on Church street, had no bearing what soever on the guilt or innocence of ! Chapman in the eyes of the jury | Jackson pointed out" but 1t did serve to shake the confidence of the public in the conduct of the trial and gave it basis for criticism"
 There may be some explanation of the testimony" Jackson said, "and if there Is, think the board and the public are entitled to know it. and the policeman should be given an opportunity to give 1t.
