Ten Dead

The prisoners were not fed until late
afternoon because it was impossible
for prison authorities to set up the
kitchen forces and cook a sufficient
supply sooner. When the revolt broke
out all kitchen preparations and other
work was halted and it required sew
eral hours to get things moving along
in anything near an orderly manner
Warden Smith does not expect the
prison to be back on it's routine sched-
ule until Monday or Tuesday. The
library room and cell house where the
men took refuge in their revolt and
where the subsequent wholesale kill
ings took place, must be cleaned be-
fore it can be used. And until this is
accomplished all but the farm and
garden trusty prisoners must stay in
their cells, except to be freed by small
groups at meal times.
Tonight all was quiet in the cell
houses. Warden Smith reported he
had not heard any complaints or ex-
pressions of animosity by the prison
ers against the leaders of the revolt
which cost everyone their Thanksgiv-
ing dinner and in addition brought a
night of cold and hardShips to more
than thousand others.
While the Warde nWaS busy straight
ening out his house and family, Dis
trict Attorney Neil McAlliSter, with
Guy P. Johnson and Horace Frye, his
assistants, we're busy investigating the
activities of the six leaders in the re-
volt.
The prosecutor and his aides ques-
ho of of 1o11OfI1 ond vyhi1a
Albert Stewart, the actual leader and
the shot that wounded Walter Neil,
'cloSe mouthed" about the entire af-
fair. All denied knowledge of the
cause of the death of Guard Ray
Singleton, who was hit over the head,
stabbed and finally brutally mutilated
and disenboweled.
McAllister announced the six men,
including Roy E. Stokes, Los Angeles
burglar; James Gleason, Alameda rob-
ber Walter E. Burke, Sacramento
robber; Albert Stewart, Los Angeles
forger; James H. Gregg, Fresno mur-
dered will be charged with conspiracy
to commit murder as the outgrowth of
the shooting of Neil and the killing of
Singleton. This charge carries the
death penalty if jury convicts.
McAllister hopes to file a formal
complaint against the men the first
of next week and arrange an immedi-
ate preliminary hearing at Folsom If
held for trial before the superior court,
the prosecutor announced, no time will
be lost in bringing them to an early
trial
While McAllister is going ahead with
this work, the bodies of the nine con-
victS killed in the riot are being ex-
amined by Warden Smith and Coroner
James Garlick of Sacramento, to de-
termine whether, some could have been
shot down by the leaders to enforce
their riot orders.
Warden Smith announced he had
definite information that George
Baker, serving life under a sentence
imposed in Alameda county, was kill
ed by Browns revolver, but whether
the shooting was accidental or inten-
tionla is not known.
Baker dropped with bullet in his
| back just after Turnkey Neil had been
shot in the leg by Brown when the
guard slammed the door shut in the

I wish you would state to the good
people of Douglas that we appre-

BUSINESS SURVEY BY JOSEPH M'C0Y Cood But No Certainty 1927
 Will SurpasS 1926

Washington. March 1S UP)- Business conditions In the country appear sound but there is no indica- tion that 1927 will surpass or even equal 1926 in prosperity. Joseph Nc toy. actuary of the L. s. Treasury, said today.
 Mccoy. in an interview with the United Press. pointed out that the huge income tax returns coming in to the treasury were on 1926 earn tnss, when the country was enjoying the most prosperous time in history. and predicted that returns next year on incomes for 1927 will be smaller.
 T cannot conceive prosperity ex- banding this year at the ratio it in creased in 1926" Mccoy eaid while the peak may not have been Feached. early indications point to- ward continued stability on about the present or a slightly lower mar gin rather than a further boost
 "The large income tax collections. more than SGo0,000.0oO this month are the result of great prosperity of big corporations and the fact that the corporation tax was raised this NIarch from 21a to 1872 per cent"
 Mccoy pointed out that while in- come tax receipts would exceed s2.- 2o0. 100000 for the current fiscal Eear, miscellaneous tax collections had fallen off almost as much as the income taxes have increased.
 "The government is losing this year s1oo,o00.oo0 by repeal Of the rapital stock tax, about s4o,o0o,oo0 from the reduced automobile tax. millions on reduced tobacco taxes hnd about s4o,o0o.0oo on the estate and gift tax law" he said.
 More than half the income tax collected is paid by corporations. Some 260,too or 270,00O corpora tions pay more to run the govern hnent than all the individual taxpay- ers.

EX.NAVAL OFFICER
 REMANDED TO JAIL
It. Comm. Colin Mayors Found
 With Plans of Sub.

London, March 1s,--tp-England was showing great interest today in the arrest and detention without the privilege of giving bail Of he brilliant former naval officer, Lieu tenant Commander Colin Mayors. He is charged by the admiralty with illicitly possessing official documents, among them the plans of Great Britain's largest sub ma rine.
 So important Is the case regard d that the director of public prose- cutions will conduct the case for the admiralty when Mayors week hence is arralgned. He was arrested yesterday at the request of the ad- miralty and remanded in the Bow street police court for week. Meantime the naval intelligence department will go through a ouan- tity Of technical correspondence which has a bearing on charge against Mayors, who voluntarily re- tired from the navy last January and since has been employed by the submarine department of Vickers. Limited, builders of war craft and Ordinance.
 There Is complete secrecy re- specting details Of the charge against Mayors. which the prosecu- tor yesterday described as one of considerable gravity. The magis- trate in declining the resnonsihilitv of granting bail said that his refusal was due to the very serious nature Of the case. He added that the prisoner might make application for release to a higher court if he 50 desired.
 It is believed that the admiralty fearful of disclosure of secrets re- garding it's largest submarine, the A-1, led to the arrest of Mayors. He was charged with having possession of the plans of the X-1. and the O-1. The X-1 was launched in June 1923 and when completed will have cost f5,ooo,0o0.
 It is $50 feet in length and has four large gNns in armored turrets. The calibre of these guns and the number of torpedo tubes and other details of the craft have been kept close secret by the admirality.
 Mayors since 1922 has command ed successively three submarines. He had a brilliant war career in the submersible division of the navy.
