the success of land operations against Constantinople through Asia.
The Aegean, Islands are presented also, as well as the ancient city of
Broussa. once the capital of Turkey, to which the government may
flee if the fleet passes the strait; also the City of Ad alia, on the
Gulf of Adalla, where it is rumored the Italians are going to land
an expedition, and the City of Konia, in the interior, where part of
the Turkish government may take refuge.
Smyrna is connected with Constantinople by a railroad line, which

for a consideration of $1500. Consul
Mueller thereupon broke off the nego
tiations, he said, saying that the so
called evidence was valueless and that
he would have nothing more to do with
the men.
President Paterson. of the Seattle
Construction & Drydock Company, said:
"Our submarine department has been
entirely idle nearly & year. The Ger
man Consul would have been made
welcome at our plant; could have come
lown here and looked through every
room, and it wouldn't have cost him a
cent. Our personal feelings are of in
dignation and disgust over the attempt
to bribe a trusted employe of the es
tablishment. Rullrier Declares Neutrality.
"The stolen bills of lading1 covered
the most innocent shipments. We have
maintaned. complete neutrality in the
war, but we shall co-operate with the
prosecuting attorney s office In this
case because our plant has been in
vaded."
Murdock and the detective were ar
rested last night on a joint grand lar
ceny complaint and were detained at
the countv Jail until this morning,
when Murdock. who will be held by
the prosecutor as the state's principal
witness, was veleased n JlUUU bait
The warrants for the arrest of Consul
Mueller and his secretary were served
on them through their counsel.
HMH Im AlleseA Bribe.
Murdock, 22 years old. has been em
ployed as assistant shipping" clerk at
the plant of the Seattle Construction &
Trvdock Company for the past two
years. In a statement to the Prose
cut ins Attorney the youth says the ne
gotiations for the delivery of the in
formation said to have been sought by
Consul Mueller were still pending when
Murdock was arrested. He had orig
inally demanded $1500 for his work, he
said, but had subsequently agreed to
accept $1000. He declared that, al
though he had some of the informa
tion readv for delivery at a conference
held at the Consulate last evening.
there was a hitch when he refused to
deliver this until the money was forth
eo:nlnff.
Nine original bills of lading were
recovered from under the mattress of
Murdock's bed when a special agent of
the Prosecuting Attorney's office ar
retted him at his home. A quantity
of blank forms of bills of lading: were
also fourm nere.
Builder Denies German Charge.
The purport of these bills have not
been revealed by any of the principals
in the affair. Whether Murdock really
had anything of value to offer to the
German Consul is not disclosed by
these papers. President J. V. Patter
son, of the drydock company, says his
firm is not building submarines for the
British or any other government at
war.
The action against the imperial Ger
man Consul and his secretary is based
on a state statute which reads:
"Every person who shall give, offer
or promise, directly or indirectly, any
compensation, gratuity or reward to
any agent, employe or servant of any
person or corporation with intent to
influence his action in relation to his
principal's, employer's or master's busi
ness shall be guilty of a gross mis
demeanor. The penalty for a gros misdemeanor
in the State of Washing-ton is a fine
of not more than $1000, or one year in
jail, or both, in the case of each de
fendant. In today s proceedings $1000
bail has been asked.
Detective a I'ortlaad Man.
Tarnisasky says he came to this city
from Portland several weeks ago, and.
learning of "some submarine mix up, in
which the name of the Seattle Con
struction & Drydock Company ap
peared." he went to the German Con
sulate and offered to obtain "informa
tion" for t!i imperial government. He
saye his services were accepted and
he went to work last Thursday.
Murdocn. says he was at work at the
say
big plant when a telephone call came
on Thursday from Tarnisasky The de
tective is alleged to have said he had
an important business matter to dis
cuss with the shipping clerk, and made
an engagement for Saturday at noon
uring the lunch hour
At that time the matter of obtaining
information for the consulate waa
reached to Murdock, he avers
Only once did he have a talk with
the German Consul, says Murdock.
That was last evening".
Alleged Outline of Plan Given.
On Sunday night the shipping1 clerk
says he met Secretary Schulz and
Tarnisasky in a room at a hotel. At
this meeting the drydock company em
ploye declares he named his price as
IdOO. but says he agreed to a cut to
1000 if he "delivered the goods."
He declares there was outlined to
im just what the "goods" consisted
f. The Consul's secretary said his
mployer had information that the
Seattle Construction & Drydock Com
pany had shipped and was shipping
submarine parts to another drydock
company at Vancouver for reas
sembling and construction into sub
marines for use in the British Navy.
was information in black and white
bearing on this that the Consul wanted,
according to Murdock's statement.
I II get it for the thousand dollars,"
urdock says he replied.
At a meeting Monday night Murdock
ys he reported that he could get the
bills of lading touching on the ship-j
ments desired. Yesterday, he declares,
he stole nine original bills of lading
for the proposed delivery.
The youth ays he took a bundle of
blank forms along so that copies could
be made from the originals and he
could then return the originals to their
proper place at the plant.
The meeting yesterday was arranged
at 5:30 P. M says Murdock. At the
consulate, he declares, he met Consul
Mueller, his secretary and the detec
tive. He says he reported that he had
with him the information wanted, but
added that he would not pass it over
until he had obtained the stipulated
money consideration.
"They asked me just what I had and
I told them I had just whart they
wanted in the shape of bills of lad
ing that bore out their suspicions of
the drydock company building sub
marine parts." says the shipping clerk.
Murdock says that evidently his at
titude did not satlsfyy the members of
the conference, but he would not sub
mit what he had until the money was
laid down for him.
No conclusion was reached at last
night's meeting-, Murdock avers, and he
left for home.
The complaint on which Tarnisasky
and Murdock were arrested was Issued
Monday. The complaint alleges grand
larceny, charging the two defendants
with stealing: papers.
Arrext Is Dramatic.
The arrest of Murdock and Tarnis
asky took place under most dramatic
conditions. Special Agent Fred Lathe,
armed with a warrant for the arrest
of both young men, kept watch on the
German Consul's office until they en
tered. He then made himself known
as an officer and placed Tarnisasky
under arrest, Murdock, however, was
not to be found in -the three offices
believed to comprise the suite, and
Tarnisasky was taken away.
Tarnisasky disposed of, Lathe re
turned to the search, learning that
Murdock had slipped away. The officer
at once obtained an automobile and
hurried to Murdock's home in South
Park, entering while the youth was
attempting to get into telephone com
munication with some one. Search of
his room brought to light the nine
bills of lading from the drydock com
pany's shipping records. These had
been concealed under the mattress in
Murdock's bed. With this proof. Lathe
returned to town and placed Murdock i
a cell in the County Jail. j
Other Records Are Intact.
Careful check of the other records
of the drydock- company, and particu
iarly plans of vessels, discloses that
nothing else is missing.
Consul Muller said today that he had
no arrangement with the men to pur
chase anything-, nor did he arrange to
have them steal papers from the office
of the construction company. He de
clare that Tarnisasky approached him
with a statement that he. had informa
tion that the company was building
submarines for the British navy and
that he dealt with him only so far as
was necessary to determine whether
there was truth in the report Consul
Muller declared that he was confident
the charge would be dismissed.

DALLAS, Tex., March 17. W. 8. No

Industrial Relations today that he had
this week found two land tenants in
North Texas so poverty stricken that
they were offering to give their chil
dren away. He testified: at the hear
ing on American farm land conditions.
Mr. Noble said he had found these
tenants in a search for what he con
sidered a typical example of the poorer
class of tenant farmers. Not believing
them typical, he said, he has brought
to uallas as a voluntary witness L. T.
Steward, a farmer, whose experiences
were more typical of some 60.000 ten
ant families in the Southwest.
Farmer Describe Uin Efforts.
Steward then took the witness stand.
Beside him sat his wife and six of his
eignt cmiaren, ranging from 3 to 20
years old. Three of the smallest were
barefooted, their feet showing sores
from frost bites.
Steward described his efforts for 20
years to buy a farm home, beginning
in Arkansas and finally coming to
Texas. .After his first year's farminir.

Belgians Reported to Have ' Made
Progress on Yser Artillery Fir

of Violent Xatnre.
PARIS, March 17. via London, March
18. TheWar Office tonight made pub
lic the following communication:
To the north of Arras, despite ft
third counter-attack delivered by the
enemy during the night of March 16-17,
we maintained ourselves in tne
trenches which we nad captured on the
height of Notre Dame de Lorette.
"In the region of Albert, at Carnoy
violent fighting took place around the
excavation, the sides of which we have
consolidated.
In Champagne our successes have
been brilliantly maintained, and the
enemy, despite his efforts, has not suo
ceded in retaking even a part of the
ground conquered by us.
4 Crest of Hill Attained.
t "In the region of Perthes we have
continued to make progress in the
woods extending between Perthes and
Soualn. To the north of Fertnes, ae-
spite three counter-attacks, we have
held the trenches captured yesterday,
which are of greater importance than
the preceding communications indicat
ed. In fact, we have gained posses
sion of the-military crest on the west
of Hill 196 on a length of 800 meters,
and some ground to the south 400
meters in depth.
;This advance gives us not only the
height but command of all it overlooks
on the northern side of the ridge
which extends from Perthes to Maisons.
The enemy has felt the importance of
this because this morning he attempted
to recapture the lost ground. A most
violent counter-attack was lea ny a
regiment of landsturm, supported by
the guard. The Germans were iiierany
mown down bv our mitrailleuses. The
few survivors regained their trenches,
pursued by our fire.
Previous Galus Consolidated.
To sum up, all these fruitless at
tempts caused the enemy considerable
losses.
"In the Argonne and In the region or
Vauquers there was a violent can
nonade, hut no infantry action. All
the gains previously made have been
consolidated.
"At Bois le Pretre some German con
tingents who had maintained them
selves near our trenches in excavations
caused by the explosion of March 15
have been definitely driven from them."
The earlier report of the War Office
dealt with the events of yesterday. It
said:
"On the Yser the Belgian army has
made fresh progress and has repelled
the German counter attacks.
"On the British front there has been
fairly violent artillery firing. - .
"North of Arras the enemy unsuccess
fully attempted late in the afternoon to
deliver another counter-attack on the
trenches on the spur of the hill of
Notre Dame de Lorette.

"Soissons and Rhelms again were
bombarded, two shells striking the
Rheims Cathedral. In the Champagne,
north of Le Mesnil and west of Hill
196, we have taken possession, along
a front of some 500 meters, of an im
portant eminence held by the enemy.

Ooan's Kidney Pills is used in time.
Help the medicine, however, by re
ducing the diet. Use milk and water In
place of stimulants. Keep regular
hours. Avoid over-work and worry
and take daily walks. Relief should
then come quickly.
Doan s Kidney Pills are recommend
ed everywhere as a thoroughly .relia
ble kidney tonic.

Nothing has occurred to alter my
high opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills
and I confirm my former Indorsement
of them given some years ago. Since
then I have been helped by Doan's
