(By Associated Press.)
WASHINQTON,vMay;26. Govern
ment ofiicials are making a rigid in
vestigation to determine whether or
not the leak on the sailing of Ameri
can destroyers to the war zone, was
in America or In England. Some of
' the navy ofiicials are inclined .to sus
pect the German "spy system In Eng
land as being responsible for the
information received. in Berlin, It be
ing stated of flciallyi that only a voiy
few of the offtcers.here knew the des
tination of the destroyers. The com
manders themselves were ignorant
of the port for which they were head
ed until they had opened the sealed
orders, probably 12 hours out at sea.
Admiral Sims reported that the Ger
mans knew of the sailing four days
ahead of time and had ample oppor
tunity to strew mines on the path.
' . ' Will Ferret Out Spies.
WASHINGTON, May 26. Follow
ing Admiral Sims report that Ger
many had learned that American de
stroyers were bound ,for Europe, the
government made a statement that
they were determined to search out
. all spies and close the channels of in
formation Germany. . .-r
... Torpedoes Fired. "'S. .."'
WASHINGTON, May 2o.--An ex
traordinary demonstration of German
spy efficiency; aimed at the Ameri
can destroyers sent to the British
Isles, has lust been furnished the
navy department by Vic-.-amiral
Sims, in command of the flotillas
on duty in European waters. i
According to Vice-Aumiral Sims,.
Bei-lta knew four days 'before the ar
. rival of the ships the date when they
would reach their destination.
' More tn-an that, Berlin had precise
information' as to the port selected as
the destroyer base. . .
Promptly the German admiralty
acted, and entrances to the harbors
were minedi by the, German subma
rines. German submarines lay under the
surface in wait for the American
ships just in front of the harbor.
Upon the appearance, of the de
stroyers three torpedoes were.Iaunch
- ed at them. - ';. . .
The lookouts saw them coming
The helms were turned over and the
missiles shot by their targets.
The destroyers promptly swung
around to give battle to the enemy,
but the submarines did mot show
themselves. vE'
Fortunately the vigilance of the
British mine-sweeping vessels pre
vented a catastrophe. Those vessels.
In accordance with their lnstructloL3,
swept the sea, picked up the mines
and thus made the way safe for the
American ships. . i

POSTERS RECEIVED.
Recruiting Sergeant Hall today re
ceived a- number of posters which
urge that JOO.000 volunteers are
wanted at once for a contingent of
the great war army. The posters state
that no slackers need apply -nod that
red-blooded fighting men will be
freely accepted in each state until the
quota is complete. The army pay
has been doubled and this will no
doubt act as a great inducement for
enlistments. . . t
Acquaintance of Leland Brown

Aid Country. ;
IS WIRELESS CENSOR
Was Ordered to Active Duly tTpoii
Declaration of War and "Was As
signed to Shore Duty Placed '" '
In Wireless Work.
Leland Brown, a well known local
young man today received a letter
from1 an .-old acquaintance whom he
m4t, in;.tne SieS river country in
Curryi, county nine years ago. This
acquaintance was at one time a eap-.taih.-in
the'tlnlted States navy and
stated n his'letter this morning that
he had bean-called back into the ser
vice in spite of his advanced age 69
years. This is considered quite re
markable; and shows fully the confi
dence the United States government
has in him. " Mr. Brown spent con
siderable time with this gentleman,
nine years ago, and they- took a num
ber of hunting expeditions together
in the Sixes country. In the letter
the navy captain Is anxious to se
cure Mr. Brown as an aid to him
and it is very probable that he will
consider this matter seriously. The
letter says in part:
. "Our navy is always ready al
ways mobilized. Over a year before
war was declared I received typewrit
ten, confidential oi-flers, direcling mo
exactly what to do ii the event of
war. ""-' - -
"Four hours after President Wil
son had signed the declaration of
war (April 6 ) , I received telegraphic.
orders confirming those of more tnan
a year before, and I started at once
for northwestern Washington, the
British Columbia bordev. But "as we
were at peace wiMi that country, and
after a few days stay in Washington
I was sent down here as censor at a
large wireless station at Lents.nboul
8 or 9 miles out from .Portland.
This was a commercial station, but
it has been taken over by the navy
department and made a U. S. navul
Tadio station during the war. We are
closing up a good many privately
owned amateur wlreHis stations in
accordance with the pr i uamatt in of
the president, as tlwse stations' are
now Illegal.
"You wouJd be surprised, as I was
at the "number of them. Probably
they are all innocent and really de
serving encouragement, but war is, a
terrible thing, and it Is necessary to
make hard rules, it is our duty to
enforce the law, without personal
opinions or wishes.
"You will no doubt be surprised
that a man of my advanced age (69
next October) should be ordeted to
duty. Retired officers are only or
dered to "shore duty. Now In my
case I can replace some younger man
.1 on. shore so he can pet form the more
1 Important and arduous duties at se t
'I am truly glad to be nble to do
anything at all for my beloved coun
try. It seems to me that tho best
lads (morally and physical. y) come
from tbe country and 'rom the small
towns. They develop Into splendid
self-respecting men and Are given
encouragement by the officers, giv
ing them a fine chance for advance

violently 111 and it was decided to
ftilte hor from tho train at this place,
Dr. Shoemaker was called, t'.'e uiso
being diagnosed as acute dllltation
of the liem't death occurring within
a short time In Bplte of all efforts to
retain lite. .."
As near as can be ascertained sho
was a resident of Massachusetts and
has been at Blind Slough, noar As
toria, on a visit. She was mlddlo
aged, probably about 56 years old,
and evidently in poor financial cir
cumstances, as only a few dollars
wero found upon hor poi-Bon in Bpite
of the length of the journey on
which she had started, wiiuo ner
clothes, although clean and neat,
wero slightly shabby.
A careful examination of her per
sonal effects was made but nothing
was disclosed which would establish
hor resklencev as a certainty. It
was ascertained by her pension pa
pers that sho Is the widow of a Civil
war veteran of Massachusetts, whose
death occurred in 1900. A son, who
according to tho dates given Is about
27 years of ago was also named in
the document und un effort is bolng
made to locate him. A postcard from
this son, named Delmar, was found
among the papers, tho mex.ago hav
ing been mailed from Gloiicheator
Mass.. and cntaliilng the informa
tion that he was leaving on the 22nd
of -this month for Nowburyport. Kur
ther than this no information could
be received ns she carried' nothing
besides her lunch and a few articles
of clothing.
A report was sent to the nlflre of

We, the undersigned members cf -the

paneled at the regular .February, ',
1917, term of..' the circuit court, by
your honor, do hereby submit our
Report for the. term. . ';"' . '' ....
Wo have conscientiously and dili
gently investigated into all alleged '
commission of crime and- casos call-
ed to our attention during said term,
nud liavo disposed of each of said
cases according to tho dictates of our
conscience and what we considered
under tho law to be our full duty,

In our opinion tho evidence wa, sut

we considered justice in each cise.
Under tlto present crisis there are
many complaints maue 10 mo omcc
' I of tho district attorney on account ot
patriotic, utterances,- and it nocossar
lly makes considerable confusion i ml
causes uprisings among -som or out--.
citizens. ...Wo therefore; wish to 1m- .:
pres.s upon the citizenship that dur- -ing
tho present., crisis' they refrain
from malting any unpatriotic.- utter
ances, and strictly observo th- law ,
by refraining from discussing tho sit
uation if thoy cannot concur iin the
action taken by our government, as
governmoht,.as such utterances and
remarks can avail nothing, but bring -about
confusion, disorder and disloy
alty by some who uro not in sym
pathy wilh the action taken by our
government. . -
Wo also flint, that these utterances
and romurks are generally made by
persons who seom to huve consider
able tlmo; therefore, wo wisli to call
attention to section 1, chapter 1)5 of
the session laws of 1911, which is a,i
follows: ;''...;'
"Evory ' poison without visible
means of living, who has the physical
abi.lty to work, and who does not
for the space of ten days seek em
ployment, nor labor when employ
ment Is offered him; every, healthy ' .
beggar who solicits alms as a' basi-'-ness;
ovory ldlo or dissolute poison,
or associate of known thieves, who
wamdora about the stroots or high
ways, at fate or unusual hours of
tho night, or who lodges in any barn,

or place othor than sudi as Is kept

permission of tho owner or party en
titled to, the possosslon thereof, aud
ovory lowd and dissolute person who

and every common prostitute, and ev

highway, houso or place whereby tho
peace or quiet of tho 'neighborhood
or 'vicinity may bo disturbed, snail he
deemed guilty of vagrancy, and shall
bo punished as provided in section
2 of this act." ( ;
Whoroforo, wo wlBh to call tho at
tention of tho sheriff of this county,
and doputy sheriffs, constables and
marshals, to strictly onforco tho pro
visions of this act. ,
In conclusion, wo do not think It
necessary to nuiko a report an the
presont conditions of the Jail, for tho
reason that the grand jury preceding
us has mado an extended and de
tailed report. The condition of the
unstlle Is well known to the county
court, and In fnct, to the peoplo of
DouglnB eounty gonorally, mid wo
deem It a waste of time to cull at
tention to the same again. -
And . now, having concluded our
labors and discharged our duties, wo
ask to be relieved. .
