The policy of the United States al

contraband unless destined to the mil

view that this Government should en

insists that it has the right to place

To the United States. Germany says:
"Hack up your principles with refer

to us. Insist that we may have your

Teople in Germany are too readily
disposed to believe that German-Americans
would be lirst Germans and then

is true of Irish-Americans."
W hen asked concerning the sale of

LONDON. Feb. 2. (Correspondence
of the Associated Press,) The organ-
zation of the Socialist party in Brus
sels is doing splendid work in alleviat-
ng distress, according to a report from
the American Commission for Keliei.
It has two bakeries, employing 1S5 men,
with a possible weekly output of 220
ons of bread. At present they are bak
ing and distributing aooui nan mai
amount. Their bakeries are not ai-
owed to sell for money, but for every
unce of flour they receive from tne
Commission for Belief they turn in a
oupon signed by the head or a Belgian
family saying he has received tne bread.
When a man makes application tor
elD." said the Socialist secretary, "we
ascertain his business and if possible
how many of his family are dependent
on him and how many have trades of
their own. If it is possible for him to
do work that wijl assist the Commis
sion for Relief we let him pay for the
coupons by doing that work.
"For- example, if a man is a shoe
maker we let him make boots that are
turned In to the Commission. This
particular form ct work Is. however,
becoming impossible on account of the
failure of the supplies of raw material
of all kinds. The number of the un
employed among the many weavers,
bookbinders, miners, etc., in Brussels
and the country at large is increasing
enormously."
Secret Service Agent Glover, of Port
land, and Police f ilter Hold Men
na Counterfeiters.
MAP.SHFIELD. Or., Feb. 14. (Spe
cial.) William A. Glover, United Stales
secret service agent of Portland, and
Chief of Police Carter, of this City, ar
retted two alleged counterfeiters here
today. The prisoners are J. S. Stevens,
of the Parisian Dyeing & Cleaning
Shop, of Jlarshfield, and Z. G. Harsh
man, who came here recently. Each is
chnrged with counterfeiting.
Mr. Glover and Chief Carter picked
up the two men today after the sus
pects had moved to East Side. Harsh
man is thought to be the bad coin ex
pert. When it was reported Monday
that Harshman had molds for counter
feiting in a scowhouse on the water
front Chief Carter notified Mr. Glover.
At the time of Harshman's apprehen
sion today there was no evidence to
implicate him, but the authorities had
information warranting search of a
house in East Side where they found
between 45 and 50 molds for dimes,
quarters, half-dollars and dollars, which
they seized and placed in a near-by res
idence. Numerous counterfeiting gangs have
operated here but none ever has been
convicted. Mr. Glover said tonight that
he believed counterfeit money made
from the molds seized had not yet been
put in circulation.

women because they take cleaning drudgery off her over
burdened shoulders, save the furnishings, save time and temper,
and do away with the ills and the bills of old fashioned

here on charges of murder with James

arrest of Schmidt yesterday in New
York leaves only Caplan at liberty.
The trials of the McNamara brothers
late in 1911 ended suddenly with pleas
of guilty, resulting in a life sentence
for James B. McNamara and 14 years
in prison for his brother, John J., after
Bert Franklin, a detective employed by
their attorney, was arrested for alleged
attempts at jury bribing. Franklin
made a confession involving the Mc
Namaras' chief attorney. Clarence Dar
row, who was freed a few months ago
by the dismissal of the indictments
against him.
Immediately after the arrest of
Schmidt yesterday Inspector Faurot, of
the New York police department, telegraphed-
to the authorities here asking
that officers be sent to bring the pris
oner to Los Angeles.
MILLION USED ON FIRE
Albany Blaze Requires Great Water
Supply Before It Is Checked."
ALBANY. Or.. Feb. 14. (Special.)
Between 800,000 and 1,000,000 gallons
of water were used Friday in fighting
the fire which gutted the Wallace block,
containing the Hamilton department
store, and damaged other buildings,
causing a loss of 1105,500. This is an
estimate made by J. L. White, manager
of the Oregon Power Company, owner
of the water system here.
The fire was a hard one to fight. The
block was old and the blaze burned
three and one-half hours.
Before the present company pur
chased the plant Albany often had
trouble to get enough water pressure
at big fires, but the ttnaon Power
Company demonstrated Friday that It
can meet any emergency likely to de
