WHITE MAN SEEN
ON ARCTIC C0AS
Marooned Person on Icy Cap
Possibly Member of Stef
ansson Party.
NATIVES FAIL IN RESCUE
I'loc Drifts Far to Sea in Direction
of Wrangcll Island and Possibly
Touches There Where Food
Was Cached by Party.
NOME. Alaska.. April 12. Natives
hunting seal last Winter are reported
in mail advices received from Icy cape,
on the Arctic Coast near latitude 70, to
have seen a. while man marooned on
an ire. floe which was drifting:
southwesterly direction toward Wran
sell Island. V Iiether the man was
member of Villhjamer Stefansson's Ca
nadian Arctic expedition or was a sur
vlvor of the wrecked whaling schoone
New Jersey the natives were unable to
determine.
When the natives first saw the ma
he was on a laree ice pack separated
from them and the shore ice by a wide
stretch of water. At first they thought
he was a hunter from their tribe, bu
upon reaching shore learned that the
man was not a native.
The hunters immediately hurried out
to the ice to try to rescue the ma
rooned man. but before they reached
tha lead scDaratinK the floe from th
shore ice, a strong off-shore wind had
sprung up, carryfiig the ice far to sea.
The man was walking slowly in the
same direction as the moving ice. The
natives were surprised that he had not
hailed them before the wind widened
the distance between the Ice Hoe and
the shore ice.
The ice was moving steadily south
west, and nnless the wind shifted must
have touched Wrangell Island, where
food caches were ieft last bummer by
the party which rescued the survivors
from the wrecked Stcfansson exploring
Fhli Karluk.
The general belief here and among
the natives at Jy Capo is mat m
man was a member of the Stefansson
party of three who started north over
the ice from .Martin I'oint, west 01 in
MacKenzie River. April 7. 1914. With
Stefansson at that time were Ole Ander
son and Stoiker Storkerson.
Nothing has been heard from Vllhjal-
mur Stefansun and his two companions
since they left .Martin Point a year ago
to explore the unknown Arctic region
north of Alaska.
.Stefansson expected to travel 150
miles north on the ice, by which time
he believed the eastward drift would
bring him in touch with Banks 1-anti
but the early t-pring resuiiea in iu i
50 miles of open water along the coast
of Banks Iand at the time btetansson
had calculated he would land there
The shore Ice moves east until it
strikes the discharge of the MacKenzic
lliver. which rarrres the ice farther on
to sea. Then It Is caught In a westerly
drift. Stefansson, failing to reach
Banks Land, would be carried west with
the ice pack. Thus it is not impossible
that the man seen on the ice floe off
ley Cape was a member of the little
piirtv which set out from Martin Point
nearly 1000 miles east of the place
where the marooned white man was
seen.
The Karluk, Stefanssons flagship,
which was blown into the Arctic east of
Point Barrow while Stefansson and
party of hunters were ashore, drifted
toward Wrangell Island before she was
crushed in the ice. showing that the
drift is in that direction.
Stefansson was well equipped with
dogs, food and other supplies and had &
sled that could be used as a boat.

When Chileski became involved he

BERLIN", April 12 by wireless to Say
ville. N. Y. Among the items given out
today by the Overseas News Agency
was the following:
"Emperor William's gift to the North

to be held in Brooklyn is now ready.
It is a large silver and goid-plated
shield of honor, rich in relief work,
prepared from designs drawn by Pro
fessor Otto Kohloff. It represents
Apollo playing a harp. The picture is
surrounded by the American and Ger

danger of capture by a hostile ship
only an inexpensive duplicate has been
sent to the United States and the
original of the gift will not be sent un

WASHINGTON'. April 12. Several

of the Japanese demands on China.
The signers of the message included

FEW LEFI TO
BRITAIN SAID TO BE CLEANED OF"
ELIGIBLE ARMYMEX.
Remain injc One Making io .Much Moier
That Conscription Will Be eces
atary to Get Them Writer A vera.
LONDON. March 29. (Correspond
ence of the Associated Press.) "There
are virtually no willing- eligible men
left to be recruited in those parts of
the country which I have visited,"
writes an army recruiting- officer to
the Times. Those who remain, he says,
are either in the employ of the state;
doing- work which is essential for the
defense of the state; under binding ob
ligation to parents, wives, 'children,
employers or employes, or religious
principles, from which the state alone
can release them; earning such, good
money that they are deaf to all other
considerations, or ignorant, or skulk
ers. The officer believes that if any
considerable additional number of men
is required conscription will be neces
sary.
Discussing the men who decline to
enlist because they are earning too
much money, the officer says:
'There are many small towns which
for several months have been full to
overflowing with troops billeted there.
Tradesmen and householders have been
making more money than ever before in
their lives. Artisans and laborers have
boen able to get employment at greatly
enhanced wages. Labor is nowhere to
be had. In these towns it is the ques
tion of profit that largely keeps the
eligible men from coming forward."
In the agricultural districts, the
writer adds:
"Farmers at first encouraged their
men to enlist to an extent which has
seriously hampered their business
Now they can no longer spare a single
man."

BRITISH l'Rli: COt RT DKLAV
AROl SKS AMERICAN SHIPPERS.
Appeal to State Department Ik to Be
Followed by Another A'otc Ask
ing Action on Vessels Held.
WASHINGTON, April 12. Moved by
the appeals for relief from the owners
of American ships and cargoes now
held in British ports, mainly at Kirk
wall, the State Department is prepar-
ng further representations to the
British government requesting a speed-
ng up of the prize courts.
So far not a single American ship
or cargo has passed through the Brit-
sh prize courts, although many of
those held were seized months ago.
One typical case is that of the steam-
hip Antilla, which has been tied up
t Dundee, Scotland, since February
6. Her cargo was composed mainly
of cattle food consigned to Sweden.
Both the Danish and British Consulates
New York certified that there was
nothing in the Antilla's cargo that
ould be exported from Sweden to Ger
many.
Nearly the same conditions are said
to exist in the case of the American
teamer Joseph "W. Forney, whose
owners today appealed to the State
Department. She was seized off the
Norwegian coast and taken into Kirk
wall.
Notice was today received from the
British government that' in case con
traband is found in the cargoes of de
taincd ships, all of the expenses of
loading, unloading and dockage will
be charged to the shippers. In view
f the wide range of the British con
traband list, few carg6es can hope to
scape yiese charges.
Four Convicted for Indiana Elec
tion Frauds on Way to Serve.
Judge in Passing: Sentence
Says Saloons Must Go.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 12. Four
men convicted in the Terre Haute elec
tion fraud trial and sentenced by Judge
Anderson today to the Federal peni
tentiary at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.,
received their commitment papers late
today and were given until Sunday to
begin their trip to prison.
The other 16, including Donn M.
Roberts, Mayor, who received prison
sentences and appealed, and the S7 who
were given sentences ranging from one
day to six months in the local Jail, were
in jail here tonight. It was said the
16 will have two or three days in
which to obtain their appeal bonds,
which were fixed by Judge Anderson
at 910,000 for each year the men were
sentenced. Edward Holler, the former
chief of police, who pleaded guilty.
also received prison sentence.
Four Ready for Prison.
The four who withdrew from the ap
peal are: John M. Messelink, city sealer
of weights and measures and former
member of the State Legislature; Ar
thur Gillis, Progressive election offi
cial ; Joseph Strauss, liquor salesman,
and George Sovern, gambler. Each had
been sentenced to a year and a day in
prison and to pay a fine of ?100. They
departed for Terre Haute tonight and
will remain there until they leave for
Leavenworth.
Po obtain liberty pending his appeal,
Mayor Roberts, who was sentenced to
six years and to pay a fine of $2900,
the severest sentence given, will have
to furnish a bond of $60,000. Efforts
to secure the bonds for the 16 were
begun this afternoon. If all secure"
bonds it will mean a total of $420,000.
Judge Aswailn Saloons.
In passing sentence today Judge An
derson paused to comment on the evi
dence and the conditions in Terre
Haute. While considering the case of
several saloonkeepers who had pleaded
guilty, he said :
"My notion is that the saloon will
have to go. I believe the time will
come when people will rise up and
smash the saloon, at least as we have
it now. The evidence in this case
showed that the saloons were the cen
ters of nearly all the corruption in the
election at Terre Haute."
CUTTER TO GUARD ALONE
Destroyers Likely to Be Recalled
. From San Juan.
WASHINGTON'. April 12. Treasury
Department officials believe the const
Sruard cutter Algonquin can handle the
neutrality situation at San Juan, Porto
Rico, making it possible lor tne de
stroyers Smith and Preston to come
home to overhaul before the maneuvers
of the Atlantic fleet. Ac-tint; Secretary
Newton discussed the matter today
with Secretary Daniels.
When the German liner Odenwald
was stopped by the guns of Morro Cas
tle at San Juan for attempting to leave
without clearance papers, the de
stroyers were sent to help the Algon
quin maintain the neutrality of the
port.

the Camino was crippled. Wireless

hich it was thought would be accom
plished in 20 days, required nearly five
imes that number.
