"mreetervtlle" was Invaded, its ruler captured and its citadel demolished today after a pistol battle on fllled-ln-land on the shores of Lake Michigan, almost In the heart of Chicago. The land, which is claimed by Captain George Wellington Btreeter, is north of the harbor and in. the- center of the fashionable lake shore residence district. Btreeter and his wife came there years ago when the'r vessel was wreckd on a bar. The sand filled In between the wreck and the ahore until their claim comprised property aald to be worth millions of dollars. While the city has never admitted Streeter's title, many nurchasera have j preferred to make a settlement with him to ohlvate the possibility of his ques tioning in court their right to purchases, j Ptreeter called the new-made land "The T nlted Ptates District of Lake Mlehl gan," and has refused to recoanlse anv I authority but that of the United States i and has defied for weeks Mayor Thomp ' son's Sunday saloon closing order, j Since the Sunday closing order. It is eaid, Streeter has done a thriving business in bottled beer. His shack, which he vnriHienea Tno Oasis." was but a short distance from Lake Shore drive and easily accessible to automobile parties. He was often summoned to court and numeroufl cases for selling liquor with out a license are pending. Last week' a Jury found him guilty on one charge, but he took an appeal. The main force of Invaders, consisting Of thirty-five nnllrompn mn wagons, an amublance and reinforce ments from the fire department, was sent today to a point within call, but Just out of range of observation. Eight detectives were sent to reconnolter. They found a room with a number of patrons, and, 'after being eerved, one of them walked to the door and lifted his hat to a scout from the invaders. : Down the street the patrol wasrons and hoKplta! corps got into motion and de scended upon the building. Captain Streeter, heating the commotion seized a putol, and according to the police, fired, but was overpowered by the detect ives who were within the room. BevurM shots then came from adjolnlnir bulld- , lngs, the police say, and In answering a ; rifle fire from the home of John Hoist, jone of Streeter's tenants, the police are believed to have injured Mrs. Hoist, but not seriously, After the battle the fire department j demolished the building, where 192 cases :or Deer, six rules, four revolvers and i three boxes of ammunition had been con fiscated. Streeter, his wife and fifteen others were arrested. Charges of assault with Intent to kill, violation of the atate liquor law and of keeping a disorderly house were placed against Btreeter. Most of the other were I charged with being Inmates of a dleor I derly house. All were released on bond. I A number of years ago while Btreeter I and several men In his employ were de- fending the Streeter home against the j police in a similar attack, a police of ficial was shot and killed. Streeter and an employe served a term In the peni tentiary for that shooting. Oil October 11 Mrs. Streeter shot and wounded a policeman who had arrested her husband on a charge of selling beer without a license. Streeter's title to lots In the district are estimated to have netted him as much as SlOO.ooo. At one time a syndicate of capitalists Is said to have Invested M 000 I ntltles.

POOL AND REED DO NOT AGREE (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 14. (Spe cial.) The filing of the name of Charles E. Hughes of New York to go on the republican primary ballot as a candidate for the presidency de spite Judge Hughes' declaration that he Is not a candidate has brought about a complication similar to that when a bunch ot democrats filed the name of William J. Bryan with the secretary of state of Nebraska as a candidate for the democratic nom ination for the presidency In 1911. The petition filed yesterday is peculiar In Us resdlng as indicating that the petitioners had little hope of being able to draw the judge into the contest. The explanation accom panying the petition reads: . nesort ta ConscHplloa. "W have riled Justice Hughes' name hsolulely without his knowledge. We fully realise that, so far as he Is con cerned, he Is not and will not become a presidential csndldate, and that he is opposed to any consideration of his nam In that connection. Notwithstanding his well known attitude, and while regret ting the necessity of disregarding his wishes, w ar abidingly convinced that the welfare of th nation, in Its brosdest sense, demands th drafting of Its high est and most available talent to lead In the approaching contest for th tri umph of republican principle and In our opinion Justice Hughes I pre-eminently the man, snd further, that th emer gency demands a resort to conscription." Mallery Gives View. Senator Karl D. Mallery of Alliance, on of the signer to the petition In the city today, said In response to a ques tion: "We simply put It up to Judge Hughes. W recognised the fact that he would not give hla consent to having his name used and that he would not. become an active candidate for th republican nomi nation and so w took this step to find out Just bow th Judge stood. It is. now up to him. If he does not Withdraw his nam . t will be evidence that h will accept a nomination If tendered him and os the whole matter Is up to him." Whether the matter Is In the hands of Judge Hughes is a question to be de- ,d"d of Jtat. Pool. whU. la a nnaltlnN wIbSiI HAW Vaa St SI An not in a position right now to pass on the question and desiring more time to look Into it. Secretary of State Foot la inclined to the opinion that Judge HiiKhes may be the only man who can withdraw the Detltlon. Petitioner I.aek night. He does not think that the petitioners themselves have the authority to with- draw It certiiinly not unless every man who signed th petition should request Its withdrawal. However, he expect to look up that point and bo ready for the emergency should It arts. On the other band Attorney General need takes the off-hand view that Judge Hughes has no right to withdraw th petition. He has not had tlmo to look into the matter fully, but on a short glance at the statutes h Intimates that I tho only way nam c,r b wth- drawn is for Judg Hughes to author! .

CHIEF RITE OF CORONATION KIOTO, Nov. 14, Tonight, alone, un een and unheard, in primitive hut of thatch and reed, Bmporor Yoshihlto of fertd a feast of sacred rice to th spirits of his ancestors and to th deities of heaven and earth, and then himself par took of th sacred food. . Many Japanese regard this ceremony as the culminating and chief rite of all, since through it the emperor receives the confirmation of his hereditary right to deification. In Japanese the ceremony la called "Daljoeal," which translated Implies, "urand Harvest, or Thanksgiving Fes tival." The ceremony proper was pre ceded by many preliminaries, including that of yesterday, when prayers were of fered for the longevity of the imperial house, and the sending this morning of imperial messengers to each of the 172 shrines throughout the empire to notify the spirits of the Imperial ancestor that the grand hsrvest festival was about to begin. Still another preliminary held In the morning waa the offering of food before the Imperial sanctuary In the 8hunkoden hall of the Kioto palace. A chamberlain and a mald-of-honor represented tha em peror and empress In ancient costume. Spirits lavlted. t Prior, also, to the festival proper was held a ceremonial dedicated to inviting th spirit of the deities of heaven and earth to come to their respective shrine in tha Palio halls. These two shrines, the Tukl dedicated to the deities of heaven, and th Sukl to those of earth, wer first purified and then decorated. Several hundred military and naval of- fleers of distinction, peers and other dignitaries assembled at the waiting hall. All were attired In full ceremonial dress, the Japaneso women wearing the ancient court robes. The crown prince, princes and prln- cesses of the blood and other members of the imperial family then entered the pavilion temporarily built for their re ception. Presently the emperor came In, followed by his retinue. The guard of honor, consisting of picked offlcera and men from the bodyguard troops, were arrayed outside the rrlnin gates of the ; shrines. A score of coronstlon officials proceeded to the torll or Shinto gates at the four sldea of the grounds and took their posts as the guard of honor. t Wear Ceremonial Drrsa. They wore the elegant ceremonial dress of ancient courtiers. It consisted of a : short robe of light blue color, an unllned garment, a bx.se tunic with a long trsln, 1 a sleeveless undergarment, a pair of inner trousers, a pair of outer trousers and a Jeweled belt; a sword with a broad , girdle; a flat quiver with arrows; a how; ; a pair of shallow shoes, and a con : secrated surplice. On their hesds the ' guards wore a coronet with a pennant ! of silk guaxe colled at tha back. A j dozen officials in similar costume took I their posts on the right and left of th I torli, computing a fascinating plctur of ancient Japan. On a stand were placed aacred ahoes of pur gold brocade and bedding with , aacred clothes thereon made of pur raw I silk thread. On small eight-legged tables wer bamboo basket containing th I aacred vestments of ellk , and ootton.

The Greek king's suppression of the majority In the chamber, ot which M. Venlselos Is the leader, Is not regarded here as a definite step toward fulfilling a secret compact with the central powers.
