In the United States were made today
by Gaston B. Means at the $3,000,000
King: will hearing:, to determine the
legality of one of two instruments said
to have : been left by the late mil
lionaire. , ...
Means, who appeared as a witness
for the heirs of Mrs. Maude A. ICingr,
for whose alleged slaying; he was tried
and acquitted in Concord, N. C.,, last
tsummer, freely admitted receiving:
money for acting- as a secret agent of
the German government before the out
break of the war with the United
States. ... - -
He said he received $85,000 at one
time and $92,000 another, for his serv
ices to Germany, and of - delivering
$1,300,000 which he received on a check
to Captain Boy-Ed, one of Germany's
chief spies in this country, who was
subsequently expelled. He received the
check at a railway station, he said.
Asked regarding the services for
which he received the $92,000, Means
said:
"I made that money the way lots of
other Americans did, some of them the
biggest lawyers in New York. I can
easily tell you the 'place where I col
lected it right in the Trinity Church
yard at a designated tombstone."
The witness also admitted that he
and German spies in- this country were
to tie up the building of electric boats
"the mosquito fleet" building for
the allies in this country. Means said
that he found that the boats had gun
emplacements and that Captain Boy-Ed
called this to the attention of the
neutrality board at Washington.
rresiaeni wnson then very prop
erly asked him why he was doing de
tective work in the United States,"
declared Means. "And now for the first
time the public knows why Captain
Hoy-Ed was sent back to Germany.
I turned all my information over to
the Government.

Plan Is to Make Labor Day Seconal
Fourth of July In Floating
of New Vessels.
WASHINGTON, July 17. American
labor , has proposed to the Shipping
Board that Labor day this year shall
be made a second Fourth of July in the
launching of a record number of ships
10 neip aeieat Germany.
Chairman Hurley today referred the
proposal to Samuel Gompers, president
or tne American Federation of Labor,
who will take up the Question with
unions on the Pacific Coast, where the
suggestion originated, with' a view to
making the celebration National, if it
meets general approval.
Officials were gratified by the pro
posai, but they feel that since ths
suggestion came spontaneously from the
men, it should be developed by them
without urging.
There were 95 hulls made ready for
launching July 4 ahead of the time set
for their completion. This was the
greatest addition ever made to any na
tion s tonnage in a single day. It is
believed an attempt will be made to
equal or surpass it on Labor day.
Band, lectures by war correspondents
and military officers, concerts, a. car

and vicinity will be closed during the

The programme will be held in the
new Chautauqua Dunding, recently
completed at a cost of $25,000, for part
of which Ashland is bonded. It has a
seating capacity of 4000.

OREGON CITY, Or., July 17. (Spe
cial.) "Preachen, poet, prevaricator"
so is Mertins, the famous humorist,
self-styled. At his appearance this aft
ernoon at the Chautauqua pavilion he
lived up at least to the poetic implica
tion. His talk was ful of zest and
carried with it a world of information
on how to be - happy. Marshall Louis
Mertins is a preacher who spreads the
new gospel of living with your own
consciousness, after first making that
consciousness fit to live with.
To a large audience he appealed with
a, message of good cheer. - His stories
were original and funny. He is also a
master of pathos. His references to
the war were replete with heart-stirring
phrases and showed a keen insight
into conditions abroad.
The Morrison-Smith Company, a de
lightful pair of artists on the piano and
harp, appeared both afternoon and
evening, and gave beautiful selections
from a variety of music classics. Both
Mildred Morrison and Alice Genevieve

Difficulty of Transportation In Winter

Unless Stacks Pat In New.
Western railroads have been advised
that In view of the desperate condi
tions that will confront railroads in
the movement of coal for domestic use
tho coming Winter, storage of coal
for railroad use should amount to from
15 per cent to 20 per cent of demands
for annual use. Notwithstanding all
the efforts of the Fuel Administration
and hearty co-operation of the rail
roads and larger consumers and of a
great many people, a certainty of fuel
hortage still confronts the people of
tho country, in the opinion of the heads
of the Railroad Administration.
In & communication to heads of the
various railroads, the roads are asked
to review their situation and store
added quantities where possible, es
pecially roads located at a distance
from the mines. This request has been
cent out by the regional purchasing
committees in each of the districts, and
of general interest to the public as
denoting the certainty of fuel shortage

COLONEL WINS REQUEST
Noibel Peace Prize to Be Dissolved
Formally Today as Suggested.
t
WASHINGTON. July 17. The foun
dation for industrial peace created to
administer the Nobel peace prize of
$40,000 donated by Colonel Roosevelt
when he was President, will be for
mally dissolved tomorrow at a meet
ing of the board of trustees.
Congress already has passed a reso
lution to dissolve the foundation at the
suggestion of Mr. Roosevelt, who said
that the money should not lie idle
when it could, be used for war relief-
He asked for its return so that he
might expend it through the Red Cross,
Y. M. C. A. and other organizations.
It was Mr. Rosevelt's intention that
the fund donated by him should be a
nucleus for other gifts, but none ever
was received, and the Income from
$40,000 was not sufficient to carry out
the original purpose of the founda
tion. The fund now amounts to $44,'
000, of which $6000 is in liberty bonds.
