disebvery of the 25th wife of
Charles Newton Harvey, alleged
modern Blue Beard, who was first
known as "J. P. Watson," and the
locating of two of his "love dens" in

The 25th wife is Katheryif Kruz
of Salem, Or., who married Harvey
at Nelson, B. C, June 13, 1913, under

With the disclosure regarding the

Judge Advises Wife

Chicago, April I 15. What's
sauce for the goose is sauce for
the gander. '
Judge Trude figured it out in
the court of domestic relations
while he was mulling over the
case of Mrs. John Baskowiski,
wife of a railway switchman. , She
said, her husband ,was on strike
and was not contributing a penny
to the household expenses and she
was at her wit's ends to devise
means to feed hini and herself.
"Why "don't you go on strike,
too just lay down on the job like
he does, refuse to cook or sweep
or make beds or wash the clothes.
Sauce for the goose should be
sauce for the gander.
"Oh, I couldn't do that, judge."
she pasped, "it wouldn't be fair to
John." . , . ,
v"I don't agree with you," said
the judge, as he turned to the
hulking defendant. "Now you are
going to support your wife, strike
or no strike. Turn over $15 a
week to her. .- I don't care how
you get it so you get it honestly,
but you've got to produce. Pay
her the money and forget your
strike."
IRISH PRISONERS ,
FREED AND STRIKE
IS DECLARED OFF
,
Sixty-Four Men Held in Dub
lin Released Trade Union
ists Claim Victory.
Dublin, April 15. Sixty-four hun
ger striking prisoners have been re
leased, apparently unconditionally,
and as a result the strike is consid
ered off. ,
The lord mayor, who went to see
Lord French at the vice regal lodge
when a hitch arose at Dublin castle
through a stipulation that the pris
oners must return to their captivity
ontheir recovery, stated on htf re
turn that the prisoners would be
released unconditionally.
The prisoners had refused to ac
cept the stipulation on the ground
that it was a reapplication of the
"cat and mouse" policy.
The release of the prisoners is
regarded as a complete triumph for
the hunger strike and its ally, the
general strike. It became known
early that Viscount French' had
summoned the lord mayor, and that
it was then only a question of terms.
It is not definitely known, what
the terms are, and for some days
there may be contradictory state
ment regarding them. The trade
unionists, however, had no doubt
which side had won, and immedi
ately called off the strike, to the
great relief of the citizens.

Thinks United States
Will Lose Big Amount
, Owed, by Germany
Washington, April 15. Failure by
Germany tomake full payment for
tli'e maintenance of Americanfforces
in Germany as required by the armi
stice was said by Chairman Kahn of
the house military committee to
have resulted in the troops being
maintained at a daily expense to the
United States of 1,220,000. Repre
sentative Kahn added that 'he
dofcbted if this country would ever
be able to recover the great amount
of indebtedness from the German
government."
Several payments on account have
been made by Germany since the
armistice, he asserted, but no pay
ments for transportation of replace
ment troops or supplies for the
troops already irt Germany have
been made. A total of 433,000,000
marks has been paid on account up
to April 4, 1920, he said. .
"The president and the peace com
missioners - deliberately bartered
away the rights of this country for
the league of nations," Representai
tive Longworth, republican, Ohio,
interjected.
"We asked for nothing and the al
lies took us at our word," Mr. Kahn
replied.

U. S. CITIZENS IN
NEAR EAST FIRED
ON BYTHE TURKS
Attacking Forces . Disregard
Flag and Warning That
This Country Is Neutral
Situation Is Greater.
' By LARRY RUE.
Now York TlmM-Chlico Tribune Cable,
Copyright, 1(20.
Beirut. April 15. Two large
French army columns accompanied
by tanks, planes and all the equip
ment of modern warfare, are march
ing through Cilicia to the relief of
American citizens ' in ; Aintab and
Urfa.
In Aintab the situation of the
Americans is desperate. The latest
information received from them is
dated April 8. It was sent by John
H. Boyd, director at Aintab for the
American committee for relief in
the Near East. It was brought
through a country dominated by
Turkish irregulars I attached to
Mustapha Kemal's nationalist army
by a Moslem courier, who arrived
in Aleppo today.
The message reports Aintab
Americans are fighting the Turks
with their backs to the wall, and the
need of relief is imperative and
immediate. The Turks are attacking
the American buildings, where a
large number of Armenians have
joined the Americans. The Ameri
can flag flies over the American
compounds, and the Americans 're
peatedly have called to the attention
of the Turks " hat America is a
neutral in Turky, but all have been
to no avail.
Held as Hostage.
Doctor Lorina Sheppard, an
American missionary, was held at
first as a hostage by the Turks after
the withdrawal on March 31, of a
French relief column of 3,000, which
remained in Aintab for three days.
After this withdrawal th? attitude
of the Turks grew hostile. This
hostillity became' open and general
on the third and fourth days.
At a meeting the Turks announced
that if the Armenians would sur
render their arms and would fly
the Turkish flag they would be safe.
The Armenians refused because they
did not trust the Turks. The Turks
then seized several hostages, in
cluding Doctor Sheppard. She was
released, however, when the Armeni
ans seized several Turks. 1
When - the Armenians took the
Turks a mob collected in the Chris
tian quarter. This was dispersed
by Armenian rife-fire, which caused
several casualties among the Turks!
This shooting precipitated the gen
eral fighting. 1
, Armenians Weaken.
The Armenians were well armed
and confident at first, but they
weakened as the Kemal nationalists
brought up reinforcements.
There are 12 native born and many
naturalized Americans in Aintab.
The French troops on the way to
Aintab total 3,000. .
Dr. R.. A. Lampert, director, at
Aleppo for the American committee
idt relief in the Near East, who re
ceived the message from Director
Boyd, has wired United States Ad
miral Bristol at Constantinople for
aid. . ' Paul Knabenshue, American
consul general at Beirut, who called
on French General Gourand for aid,
obtained an immediate response in
an order dispatching the four French
battalions from. Killis.
The French column moving to
ward Urfa has been fighting .con
tinuously since leaving its base.
The Americans in Urfa are report-
fed short of food and the Armenians
are huddled in their homes, while
the Turks, Kurds and Arabs, who
have been besieging the city for
months, evidently intend to starve
out the rrench garrison near there.
Warn Americans to Leave.
iThe, Turks have warned the
Americans to leave the Armenians'
quarters, but the relief workers have
refused-to abandon the orphanage.
The movement of the French
column toward Urfa is expected to
increase the pressure of the Turkish
fotces on the city.
Owing to the prevalence of bandits
in Syria the American relief work
ers in Latakia, Tyre and Alexan
dretta have been unable to go to the
interior villages.
The Sherifian government is mov
ing cautiously. It is watching de
velopments in Germany to ascertain
what drain there is on the French
military strength. Several Turkish
nationalists in Damascus have urged
heir leaders to seize on the occur
ence of the trouble in Germany as a
psychological time for a move
against the French.

Fair Way to Relieve
v Dye Shortage in U. S.
St. Louis, April 15. Speakers at
the convention of the American
Chemical society said corncobs can
be utilized in producing dyes and
that efforts were being made to ob
tain a sugar substitute from malt
syrup. ' . '
Experiments are being made into
the feasibilitV of substituting wood
pulp for cotton, it was explained,
with a view to reducing the cos,t of
cotton material. This pulp, already
is being used as a substitute for
cotton in the manufacture of( ex
plosives, itVas said.
Dyes of a "vivid green" as well
as the brown and blue vat dayes
are the latest properties discovered
in the humble corncob, according
to Dr. K T. Monro of the Uuited
States bureau of chemistry.
It recently has been discovered,
he amplified, that furfural,, a ' rare
and expensive chemical used as the
base of some dyes, can be obtained
by boiling the cobs in sodium phos
phate for. two hours.
By the process, he said, the price
of furfural, $17 a "pound, can be
reduced to 15 cents.
