A WOMAN IS TORTURED
ROBRKRS APPLY MATCHES TO
HER FEET TO FORCE HER TO
TELL WHERE MOSEY IS.
Liberty, Ind., Sept. 28. A posse
composed of Sheriff Charles Weldner,
Marshal William Line, Deputy Mar

the country about Liberty for two
robbers who took $400 from the
home of Mrs. Ora Miller last evening
after torturing her by burning her
feet and setting fire to her clothing
in an effort to make her disclose the
hiding place of the money.
Mrs. Miller is in such a serious
condition as a result of her aw.'il
experience that she could not tell
but little about her assailants to
day. Mr. Miller had left the house but
a few minutes when the two m-:n
walked into the house. Mrs. Mll'ir
says Bhe was dragged to the floor by
her head, a revolver was thrust In
her face, the robbers demanding that
she tell where her husband had hid
den his money, and warning her not
to scream. She protested that her
husband had left no money In the
house. When they saw that she would
not tell, the two men bound and
gagged her.
While one held her the other then
applied matches to her feet. Though
the pain was intense she refused to
divulge anything. One of the men
continued to torture her, choking
her, twisting her wrists, burning her
feet and limbs and setting fire to her
gown. The other ransacked the
house for the money. At last Mrs.
Miller lost consciousness.
When Bhe came to the robbers had
gone.

MANY DESERTERS.
Carers at Mare Island Lose Men
From Barracks.
Washington, Sept. 26. Mariuca
hive been deserting the barracks on
Mare Island at a rate which made it
L-icessat. for Brigadier General E.
F. Elliott, commanding the Marin?
Corps, to detail a second lieutenan'
and several experienced enlisted men
ai. a sqjd whose sole duty it Is to
search San Francisco for deserters
from the marine corps.
So great has been the demand for
laborers in San FranclBco that rep
resentatives of labor agencies have
been visiting Mare Island urging the
rmrlnes to desert the servlco and
engage In work In San Francisco,
where able-bodied men are paid r.
high at $5 a day for wheeling brick
and mortar and doing other neces
sary work to clean the city of debris.
Appeals by the marine corps to the
San Francisco police were futile. Th
policemen refused to arrest marine"
who deserted the service and en
xaRed In work In San Francisco.
Finally the situation became Eo
desperate that the commandant a,
Mare Island appealed to General El
liott for assistance, and he author
ised the creation of the squad, which
is patrolling the city and picking up
marine deserters.
FORGER ADMITS GUILT
STEXSLANI) TELLS NEW YORK
POLICE HE ONLY TOOK
HALF A MILLION.
New York, Sept. 26. The discom
fort of a night in a narrow and bed
less cot which was expressed by Paul
O. Stensland, the former president
of the Milwaukee-avenue State Bans
of Chicago, who was a passenger on
the steamer, was followed by addi
tional unpleasant details of police
examination yesterday. Stensland
was lined up at police headquarter
with a score of alleged pickpocket'
and others who nad been arrested
during the night, and was subjected
to the customary examination by th
detective sergeants. This ordeal over,
he was removed to the Identification
bureau, where he was measured in
accordance with the Bertllllon sys
tem, and later his photograph wa
taken to be placed on file at police
headquarters.
An early visitor was Stensland'f
son, Theodore. The former bank
president spent a sleepless night and
was In a condition of seml-pro-tratlon.
He tottered rather than
walked from his cell to the various
offices and leaned heavily upon the
supporting arm of his son.
Stensland during the night told
one of the officers who was watching
him that he wanted to go back tc
Chicago, and would have done so had
he not been arrested in Tangier.
"I want to straighten out mat
ters," said Stensland. "There Is a
good deal behind this case, and I
want to show the public that I am
not the black sheep I have hoc.
painted."
Stensland made a voluntary stat"
ment to Police Inspector McLaugh
lin yesterday. Trembling with emo
tion and tears rolling down hl
cheeks, the cx-presldent of the bank
said:
"I made some bad investment"
and they did not act as quickly as 1
thought they would. They were not
paying. The man under me the
