Damage by Orchard Mice

damage by Orchard Mice
Many young orchards are dam
aged by mice each year in the early
fall, long before the cover crop is
dormant. The reason for this is not
APPARENT, as plenty of green feed
is available. Possibly the bark of
trees is more succulent and attract
i've at that time of the year.
In the latter part of August and
September the mouse runways are
not well established. 1t would be
practical to undertake a general

RUMRUNNERH HANGS
FOR DEATH OF TWO
SeapIane Hangar at Fort
LauderdaIe Scene of Execu-
ton of J. A. Alderman.
BY the Associated Press.


FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla, August
Thames Horace Alderman, 50-year-
old rum runner, was hanged early to-
day in a seaplane hangar at the Coast
Guard base here for the Staying of two
Coast GuardSmen in a gun battle on
the high seas two years ago.
Alderman walked calmly to the Scaf-
fold with a prayer on his lips. showing
no sign of faltering. With only eXecu-
ton officials, a spiritual adviser and
the necessary witnesses present, the
trap was sprung at 6:03 just as the
first rays of sun rose out of the At
lantic, which borders the east side OF
the Coast Guard base.
A few minutes later the body was
taken down, and at 6:25 slowly mov-
ing hearse started with it directly to
Miami, where relatives have arranged
the funeral and burial.
Alderman was convicted in January.
1928, of Staying Sidney Sanderlin and
Victor Lamby, the Guardsmen, as he
attempted to run liquor into Florida
port. During the battle Robert K.
Webster, secret service agent, also was
killed, but the rum runner never was
tried for his death.
Alderman carried his fight for life
to the highest courts and to President
Hoover without avail. The case was
tried under Federal jurisdiction because
the crime occurred at sea. Designa-
ton of the airplane hangar for the
execution came after the State had de-
clined to permit the use of its property,
citing special reasons in each location
the Government requested.

PONCA CITY, Okla, August IF. G.
Hyde, young Ponca City lawyer, was in

president of the Marland Oil Co., and

Authorities believe Hyde attempted to

BELIEVED PARLEY DOOM
DR.. Stresemann Calls on Head of
English Delegates, but Hides
His Purpose.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
THE HAGUE, August 17.-Philip
Snowder, British chancellor of the ex-
chequer, today refused the compromise
offer of France, Italy, Belgium and
Japan to allow Great Britain an in
creased share of German reparations
The British chancellor claimed it was
insufficient to satisfy his government
The chief delegates of the four cred
itor governments aligned against Great
Britain decided as soon as they re-
ceived Mr.. SnoWuen'S reply to their
proposals to meet at noon and decide
what further action TO take.
Sees Parley's Doom.
Feeling around the Hotel des Indies
headquarters of the creditor powers,
was that SnoWden'S reply meant the
inevitable breaking up of the confer
ence. All delegations Immediately
communicated with their governments
Even Mr.. SnoWden has kept in constant
touch with Premier Macdonald during
the past two days.
The offer refused was that made
yesterday by the four governments seek
ing to satisfy British demands for re-
turn to the Spa percentages Tor d.
vision of German reparations and other
minor concessions. The four govern
ments acted in an attempt to avert
British withdrawal from the confer
ence here on application of the Young
reparationS plan.
Mr.. Snowden in his refusal to con-
slider the compromise further said that
instead of the 60 per cent of British
claims it purported to offer, he upon
examination had discovered it made
available only 20 per cent, which, he
said, was utterly unacceptable to his
government.
Calls on SnOwden.
DR.. Gustav StreSemann, German
foreign minister, called on Chancellor
Snowden just before noon today.
He refused to say whether his visit
was for the purpose of mediation, but
there was less pessimism among the
Germans than elsewhere. and this was
taken to mean that the chief of the
reich delegation was endeavoring to
prevent a complete break.
There is some resentment in British
circles at the tendency of other delega-
tions to interpret their stand as an
obstacle to peace.
Chancellor Snowden has made known
his feelings in the matter by saying
that all the British delegation wants T.

DEFECTIVE WIRING
DELAYS WILLIAMS
Short Circuit Interrupts
Flight, Which Was Planned
for This Afternoon.
BY JOSEPH S. EDGERTON,
Staff Correspondent of The Star.

ANNAPOLIS, August 1.-THE first
fight test of Lieut.. Afford j. Williams
Mercury racing plane, which has been
delayed for many days by adverse
weather, was held up this morning by
a short circuit in the wiring Of the
horsepower motor.
With weather conditions ideal for the
first time in 10 days, half dozen me-
chanics were set to work to replace the
damaged wires and the flight is to be
made early this afternoon.
The mishap caused intense excite
ment at the Naval Academy, reports
being circulated that the $175,000 plane
had caught fire and was burning up.
Aside~from burned inSulations, 1t was
stated, no damage was done.
The plane was lifted from its cradle
at Santee wharf at the Naval Academy
and was lowered to the Severn River
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning.
Exhaust Spits Flames.
barge was backed up against the pro-
peller of the plane and the motor was
turned over.
AS the motor took hold sheet OF
flame and smoke came from the four
exhaust stacks. Through the smoke
it could be seen moment later that
Lieut.. Williams was in difficulties. He
rose from his seat with fire ex-
tinguisher in his hand as the motor
sputtered and stopped. Dense clouds
of smoke were rising from the cockpit
around the pilots seat.
Williams, however. did not use the
eXtinguisher and the smoke clouds
rapidly cleared away.
williams ordered that the plane be
lifted back to the wharf and told re-
porters that there had been no damage
which would delay the flight more than
an hour or two.
Faulty Wiring Blamed.
The short circuit is supposed to have
been caused by faulty wiring. The
ignition system is exceedingly COM
plicated, as there are 48 spark plugs
operating from four magnetoS.
AS soon as the damage is repaired
Lieut.. Williams will make another ef-
fort to take the racer on its maiden
fight. After short trial hop over
the Severn River, If weather conditions
remain good, the plane will be taken
to a speed course laid out by the Navy
at Kent Island. The plane will be
carried across Chesapeake Bay to the

SEATTLE, August 17.-Federal troops
today We're under orders to go to the aid
of an army of 1000 fire-fighters who
had been waging losing battle against
the widespread flames devastating the
forests of the. Pacific Northwest States
for several weeks.
AS the result of appeals to the War
Department, Maj. Gen. John L. Hines,
commanding officer of the 9th Army
Corps Area, instructed the commanding
officer at Fort Lewis. Wash, to give such
aid as possible to Federal Forest Super
visor c. M. Granger at Portland, Greg.
II all available Federal troops in
Washington State were called out the
fire-fighting army would be augmented
by about 1000 men.
Two Deaths Feared.
Granger announced that he would
visit the ravaged district in the Chelan
Forest of Washington and call for Fed
eral assistance there II the situation
warranted.
Meanwhile. fear was expressed here
that two men had been trapped in the
Chelan fire and burned to death.
Douglas C. Inghram, Federal grazing
inspector from Portland, and Ermannie
st. Luise of Chelan apparently were
caught between two lines of fire in the
Chelan National Forest. A change of
wind caused the two lines OF flre TO
meet. Surrounding fires made 1t difficult
for searching parties.
II the two men have perished 1t will
bring the number of fatalities among
the fire-hghters to six in 10 days. An
unnamed man was reported burned to
death on the Canadian side Of the Col
vile Forest yesterday. Three men. were
injured in Idaho and Montana.
More than $4,000 acres had been
burned over in Chelan, Okanogan and
Ferry Counties of Washington. The
blaze in the Chelan Forest alone had
covered $4,000 acres.
Fires Advance in Idaho.
Forestry officials at Nelson, British
Columbia, announced that 1900 men
were fighting conflagrations in the
southern interior of British Columbia
A total of 160 fires were burning in that
province, SO of them being new ones.
Two fires which resisted the efforts
of fighters advanced in the Selway For
est of Idaho, the Bald Mountain fire
covering about 5000 acres and the OLD
Man Creek blaze 1900 acres. Two hun
dred more men, bringing the total sent
out since July 20 to 1900, were dis
patched from Spokane to the fire front
Crossing the Idaho line into the Sal
mon River country, the Bitter Root blaze
leaped from Montana into rich stands
of timber in the neighboring State. The
Sand Point and Bonners Ferry fires were
quiet.
