COUNTY LOSES
DEATH SUSPECT
Man Wanted as Haag Killer
Jumps Chicago Bail.
M. 3 Head-seePuzzle-

Lawrence Ghere, expert jewelry
robber, whom four witnesses have
identified as the bandit who MUIR
dered Wilkinson Haag, Haag Drug
Company official, in a hold-up at
the Green Mill barbecue stand,
north of indianapolis, May IT, 1926,
has jumped bail at Chicago, Chief
Deputy Prosecutor JudSon Stark
learned today.
The Marion County prosecutor
Office will start a Nationwide hunt
for Ghere and ask police over the
country to send him here, if cap
tured, instead of to Chicago.
Stark blamed Chicago police and
Illinois State officials for the es-
cape. Ghere and Arthur McClel-
land, who also is believed to have
taken part in the murder hold-up
here, were arrested by Pinkerton
more than a year ago.
They we're taken to Chicago to
aid in the roundup of the Nation
wide gang of gem thieves, and in
dicted on robbery charges.
Governor Small of Illinois re-
fused to honor papers for extradi-
ton of the two here until the Cook
County prosecutors Office would
waive its charges. The Chicago
prosecutors finally did so few
weeks ago and then it was learned
the extradition papers never had
been sent to Chicago from Smalls
Office.
New papers were prepared and
sent to Chicago by Detectives
Rugenstein and McGlenn when it
was learned the two men were. to
come up for trial there Tuesday,
Ghere failed to appear for trial
and the Indianapolis detectives
learned he had left Chicago some
time ago, jumping his $4,000
bond. McClelland appeared, but it is
no use to bring him here until
Ghere can be found, Stark said.

BELIEVE EARTHQUAkE WAS
 IN BOTTOM OF OCEAN

Juneau, Nov. 3, R)-The belief is now held that the earthquake which rocked Southeastern Alaska on October 24th had it's origin in the bottom of the ocean. This be- lief received substantiation when fishermen returning here with their catches reported that the waters west of here to Cape Spencer and in the vicinity of the Cape have been discolored since the shock.
 The fishermen plying the fishing banks near Cape Spencer report that in past years they have exper- fenced considerable trouble with their gear on account of the rocky bottom, but after the quake the gear was found to be covered with mud when 1t was lifted in the vic- inity of Point Adolphus. Cape Spen- cer, Yakob Island, and at these points dead deep sea fish have been found floating on the surface of the ocean.

FALL.SINCLAlR CASE ENDS IN MISTRIAL, JURY NOT
 REGULAR, IS CHARGE

Washington, Nov. ?, R-Charges of jury irregularities resulted in mistrial of the Fall-Sinclair con- spiracy case. The trial came to an end soon after it convened today, as the result of charges of a detec- tive for the defense, who made inn proper efforts to establish contacts with the jury. It was proven that one of the jurors talking about the case remarked that he expected to soon have an automobile "as long as a city block"
 Justice Siddons ordered mistrial after the defense and Government attorneys had agreed that a fair trial would be impossible with the present jury sitting on the trial.
 The defense felt that the public ity attending the Governments charges would react unfavorobly on the deliberations of the present jury which is composed of ten men and two women, hearing the case.
 The counsel on both sides grant that the jurors had before them af- tdavits submitted by the Govern ment to back up the charges, with ihe District Attorneys office press ing for action.
 Justice Siddons told the Jurors that they were not only discharged from further attendance on this trial, but also from further attend ance upon his court at any time.
 Justice Siddons then adjourned the court without taking any imme- diate action affecting Juror Edward J. Kidwell. whose alleged talking had a large part in the defense mov- ing for, and Justice Siddons declar- ing a mistrial.

EDITORIAL
ANNOUNCEMENT

With this issue of The Nome Nugget, we wish to announce that the paper has changed from six page six column paper to an eight page five column paper. We have noted for the past two or three years the adoption by some Alas kan papers of this size of paper, and after making study we de- cided that it would be more desir- able for the needs of the camp. and We hope that the subscribers will like 1t.
 We are planning on running column or two of editorial com ments from the Alaska newspapers of matters of Territorial interest and will supplement 1t by comment by the Nugget on both local and Territorial affairs, as the need may arise.
 Outside of the Juneau Empire, the Ketchikan Chronicle and the Cordova Times, the Nugget is as big as any other paper in the Ter ritory, and bigger than seve. al. We set more type and give our readers more reading matter than any oth- CT paper in Alaska in any single issue. There is a reason for that statement and We will endeavor to explain it:
 The Nugget has in the present paper only ten display advertise ments. compared with fifty odd dis play advertisements in papers pub lished in other Alaska towns, and in paper no bigger than today's Nugget. In other words, the fifty display advertisements total 22 col umns of space, while the Nuggets display advertising totals less than five columns In paper of this kind there are 40 columns of space, and it can readily be seen that the paper with 22 columns of display advertising would have only Is columns space left for reading mat ter. while the Nugget, with only five columns of display advertising, would have B columns of space to fill. Both papers had a fair amount of legal advertising but this was not figured as display advertising, because it is termed transient busi- ness, which cannot be counted on from one month to another.
 It is gratifying to note in the

GRUESOME SEA MYSTERY
 LOST JAP SHIP ARRIVES

Seattle, Nov. ?, @-A gruesome sea mystery unfolded with the ar rival of the liner Margaret Dollar, which picked up oil the Washing ton coast an eighty-five foot Japan ese fishing smack, which had a6par- ently drifted more than three thou sand miles across the Pacific with the lifeless bodies of two of its crew as it's only cargo.
 The two corpses were apparently the only survivors of crew of at least twelve men, in the opinion of Captain H. P. Payne, of the Marga- ret Dollar. What happened to the others may remain mystery for ever, he said.
 Captain Payne believes the others may have leaped overheard when the supplies of food and water be- came exhausted.
 The discovery of pile of bones on the derelict added further hor- TOTS. but as to whether the bones were those of humans was not de- termined by the crew of the Marga- ret Dollar.
 The captain said: We found lit- tie aboard the derelict save the clo- thing for half dozen or more men. He says he is unfamiliar with the type of fishing vessel used on the Japanese coast. but there is no doubt in his mind that the vessel drifted across the Pacific.
 The boat was equipped with a gasoline engine in, addition to hemp, canvas and bamboo sails. The cap tain said: "In my opinion, the two men aboard had been dead at least a month. should judge it took more than one hundred days for the vessel to drift across the sea. Empty casks of food and the lard CTS indicate that the boat was either caught in a storm or a calm and that most of the men ended their lives, or succumbed to worse fate.
