TWO THOUSAND STORM TAMPA JAlL-ELEvEN PERSONS ARE
 WOUNDED

TAMPA, Fla, June 1. (P)-A six hour battle betweeen the police and wounded before it ended when a com pany of 100 Natio9a Guardsmen took position behind machine guns, tear and gas bombs in the Hillsbaraugh jail. Throughout the night mob of 2,000 persons storned the jail to get B. F. Levins, confessed murderer. De spite the assurances of Sheriff Hiers that the prisoner had been removed to another jail the mob persisted in at tempts to break into the jail and were not deterred even when the sheriff ordered deputies to fire on the crowd. Nine men and two women are known to have been wounded. Streams of amonia were played by the chemical squad of the fire department. In one attack 50 men succeeded in breaking a hole in the jail wall. Two attackers fell through the hole and were arrest ed. Some of the attackers took a po- sition in a church across the street and returned the officers fire The appearance of soldiers apparently cool ed the mob's anger.

 TEMPORARY ORDER
INJUNCTION APPLIES TO SECRE- TARY FOR SALARY AND oVER-
 TIME FOR sTENoGRAPHERs

JUNEAU, June 1. (P)-Federal Judge Reed in a 41-page decision, is- sued temporary injunction restrain ing the Territorial Treasurer from pay ing out money from the Treasury for overtime to subordinate officers of the recent Legislature, whose compensa- tion is provided by the Federal gov ernment. Judge Reed enjoined the Treasurer from payment of any mon- eys to Secretary Karl Thiele as salary carried on under Territorial laws. The injunction was denied in all other items of the suit brought by James Wickersham who sought to prevent payment of salaries to the Governor and members of his staff, for enter tainment. repairs to the Executive mansion, for salaries of chief clerk of the Secretary of Alaska and other members of his staff and office ex- penses. Judge Reed held that the Ter ritorial Secretary is not eligible for appointment to any office under the Alaska government which he has been performing as imposed upon him by every Legislature since 1913. The de- cision read: By acquiescence, he is an officer de facto of the Territorial government"

cAPPS REPORT ON COAL FIELD EMBRACES POO MILES SQUARE
 cHlcKALooN INCLUDED

SEATTLE, June i. (P-A Times special dispatch from Washington said considerable bodies of coal in the up per Matanuska valley are of as good quality as any other coals of the en- tire Pacific coast. This is described as a significant economic fact" of the Geological Survey report by Stephen R. Capps, issued by the Department of the Interior. Mining of these coals will involve many technical prob lens" says the report, "as the beds are much folded and faulted, and here and there are intruded by igneou X rocks and considerable prospecting should therefore precede any exten- sive expenditures Mining will doubt less be costly, and at present there is no adequate means of transportation, so development of the field to be sue cessful should be undertaken only af- ter mining and marketing costs have
 been carefully determined" It is sug- gested that competition of cheap Cali
 fornia oil will inevitably decrease and thatthe time may not be far
 away when the coal of the upper Mat anuska field can be proftably mined and become valuable aid to the in- dustries of Alaska. The region cOv- cred by thelreport embraces about 200 square miles, including the Chickaloon mine on the Alaska Railroad coal spur and the country east of it. The cOals
 are described as ranking in quality from high rank bituminous to anthra- cite.

VIRGINIANS MUST PAY

Maryland Ruling Conflicts With
Old Dominion officials
in Controversy.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, September 5.-Despite
the ruling Of the attorney general
Of Virginia that residents Of the State
need not take out Maryland fishing
licenses to fish above tidewater in
the Potomas River, Robert H. Archer,
assistant attorney general of Mary
land, has advised Swepson Earle, con-
servation commissioner, that Vir-
ginians must take out nonresident
licenses.
Mr.. Archer made his ruling at Mr.
Earle's request, following con-
troversy between Maryland and Vir-
GINA officials over the scope of the
Maryland act of 1927, which requires
anglers to obtain licenses to fish in
non-tida1 waters with hook and line.
The license fee was set at 81 for
residents of Maryland and S. for non
residents.
In letter to Mr.. Earle, the attor-
ney general of Virginia contended that
the act did not apply. to residents Of
Virginia fishing in the Potomac River
for the reason that the act was not
concurred in by the Legislature Of
Virginia.
Therefore, he asserted, while all
other persons, including both resi-
dents and non-residents Of Maryland,
must pay license fee to fish in the
waters Of the Potomac above a point
where the tide GIBBS and flows, the
citizens of Virginia, and probably the
citizens Of West Virginia, could fish
In those waters without obtaining any
license at all. although the Potomac
lies wholly within the State Of Mary
land

Warburton Wedding Recalled.

PHILADELPHIA, September up.
Mrs. Barclay H. Warburton Of Phila-
delphia, who was married in Paris to-
day to William K. Vanderbilt of New
York, formerly was Rosamond Lam
caster of Worcester, Mass. She was
married to Barclay H. Warburton, jr..
grandson of the late John Wanamaker.
at Elkton, Md, in December, 1919, and
was granted divorce in Paris July Z,
1925, on the grounds Of desertion.
The marriage at Elkton was the re-
suit of a hurried decision to change
their original plans and abandon the
program of an elaborate wedding.
The marriage of young Warburton
and the then Miss Lancaster by a
Presbyterian minister was intended
as a joke on their friends, who were
expecting brilliant social function
later in December or early in 1920.
Three days after their return they
were guests of honor at an engage
ment party" given by Maj. and Mrs.
Barclay H. Warburton, parents of
the groom. Warburton and his
bride gave no inkling Of the fact that
the engagement party" was a trifie
belated.

FRANC STERILIZATION
CAREFULLY STUDIED
Bank of France Makes Thorough
Scrutiny of Plans-Poincare
Awaits Outcome.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS. September 5.-The French
treasury, by simple bookkeeping
entry, would become 10000 900 900 TO
IL 200, 100000 francs better off than it
now is should the franc be stabilized
ut the present dollar rate, since the
governments Indebtedness to the
Bank of France would be readjusted
by converting the gold in the bank to
its stabilized paper value. This is an
intricate calculation, for 1t would in
volve the proportionate gold and
paper dealings Of the government
with the bank since the depreciation
of the paper franc set in during the
war.
1 Prof. Charles Rist, vice governor of
the Bank Of France, and some Of his
associates in the bank are making the
most careful studies of all suggestions
for staiblization. Prof. Rist, who
talked over the subject at the New
York conference of the heads of gov
eminent banks, will have a project
fully worked out when Premier Poin-
care asks him for it.
Premier Poincare, it appears, has
no plan Of his own for sterilization,
but has committed the preparation Of
One to the Bank of France. The
prime minister is disposed to continue
his present processes of Strengthening
the French treasury and delay fixing
rates Of exchange by law.
