armed with a Colt army special auto
matic gun and the pack contained 0

textbooks, a quantity of mail ad
dressed to members and a supply of
membership buttons, cards and other
material of similar nature were seized
by the Aberdeen police In a raia
upon the Northern hotel, 416 East
Wishkah street.
In the confiscation of this property,
on premises adjoining those raided
Thursday, the police believe they have
gained possession of practically the
entire equipment of the Aberdeen I.
W. W. local. No arrests were made in
vesterday's raid.
Part of the literature and docu
ments were found in a knapsack in
the hotel office and part in a room
upstairs. That I. W. W. activity here
was in no way suspended by the world
war is evidenced by the date of
granting the charter to the Aberdeen
local, given on that document as
March 12, 1917. It is signed by
Thomas Whitehead, national secre
tary and treasurer, and the members
of the general executive board.
Thomas Sparks, living west of Oak
ville, has been arrested because of
advocacy of the 1. W. W. cause. He

Taooma Jail Overcrowded and
Hammocks Strung to Provide
Sleeping Quarters.
TACOMA, Wash., Nov. 15. Steps
for the co-operation of the federal
government with the prosecuting at
torneys or western Washington wer
announced tonight as the latest move
in the prosecution of alleged mem
bers of the Industrial Workers of the
World now held in the city and coun
ty jails here,
Concerted action on the part of the
government with Pierce county waa
arranged through a conference be
tween Frederick R. Conway, assistant
United States attorney, and W. L,
Askren, prosecuting attorney.
All evidence secured by the govern
ment will be furnished the authori
ties in Western Washington counties,
it was announced.
In passing initial prosecution to the
county of ftcials, it was learned that
under the state syndicalism act
stronger case could be made out than
could be brought under the present
federal statutes.
Warrants were issued today by
United States Commissioner Brockway
against alleged radicals now held in
jail, charging them with conspiracy
to destroy the government of the
United States. The warrants tonight
had not been served, however, it was
learned, and the statement was made
by officials that they probably would
not be until the state has first de
termined on its course of procedure.
The couniy jail tonight is over
flowing with prisoners and hammocks
are being strung in the jail corridors
to provide sleeping quarters. The
city jail is equally crowded and with
two arrests tonight the total sus
pects in confinement reached 66.
A message to the federal authori
ties from South Bend stated that 12
alleged I. W. W. had been arrested
there this afternoon and that 15 ad
ditional arrests were expected to
night.

Letter From Prisoner's Sister AVho
Had Sons in Army Thought to
Be Causing Remorse.
CENTRALIA, Wash., Nov. 15.
(Special.) Important admissions rel
ative to the armistice day tragedy
are expected from Britt Smith, secre
tary of the local I. W. W.t now held
in the citv iail on the charge of par
ticipating in the crime. Smith asked
repeatedly today for an interview
with Assistant Prosecuting Attorney
Cunningham, and was interrogated
by that official this afternoon.
'Britt Smith hasn't made any con-
fpssion vet." said Prosecutor Cunnlng-
j ham tonight, "and he hasn't said that
he wants to. since he receivea a let
ter from his sister, living near Ta
cdma, he has been anxious to talk."
Mr. Cunningham paused her and
added significantly: "Britt Smith's
sister had sons in the army overseas.'
It is thought that the letter from
Smith's sister, probably appalled by
the horror of the deed, has served
largely to awaken remorse within
him, and Prosecutor Cunningham in
timated that his prospective testi-
! mony will be of the utmost importance.

Prehistoric mounds 10 miles north
of Corvallis explored this week Dy
J. B. Horner, professor of history at
the colregc. revealed many interesting
facts relative to the life of the an
cients. Professor Horner is mining
a systematic study of prehistoric ruins
and is gathering a collection of relics
for the college museum.
The Davis mound, so named Decause
it is one-fourth mile soutn ot tne.
George Das farm, is situated on the
bank of the Muddy, xne secona mounu
explored, the Mangle mound, 1b on the
G. F. Mangle farm.
The first mound is said to be five
feet high and 100 feet in diameter.
W. C. Looney of Corvallis, who ac
companied Professor Horner, bored a
hole into it five feet deep. Charcoal,
ashes, bones and other relics were
found. A hundred yards to the north
of the Davis mound were iound arrow
heads and pestles.
The second mound on the Mangle
farm had more the appearance of a
kitchen midden, according to Profess
Horner. It was queerly situated on
a hill. It abounds in arrowheads ot
all descriptions, according to xne explorers.
The Davis and Mangle mounds are
said to be the only evidences of pre
historic times in the immediate vicin
itv. Further upstream, however, on
the Muddy river there are said to be
evidences of a similar Kina.
