TRIES TO BLUFF COURT
NEW YORK, June 28. Alexander
Borkman who, with Emma Goldman,
another anarchist, Is on trial in the
federal district court here for conspir
acy to obstruct the operation of the
draft law, was warned repeatedly to
day by Judge Julius M. Mayer that.
In examining talesmen for the Jury,
he must confine himself to questions
relevant to the case. Earlier In the
day, Berkman and Miss Goldman had
dismissed their attorney and an
nounced that they would conduct
their own defense.
Berkman asked talesmen whether
they believed in patriotism, whether
they were Christians and what their
social interests were. At one point
Berkman was told by the jourt that
he "must not make speeches," to
which Berkman replied that he "was
entitled to his rights." A little later
Berkman wanted to argue with the
court, but was promptly stopped,
when Miss Goldman called out:
"Your honor: May I say some
thing?" "No." said Judge Mayer, emphatic
ally, "sit down."
She obeyed. Seven talesmen were
examined during the day.
Four large graves, each containing 45 coffins, were filled with the bodies
of the martyrs of tho Russian revolution, persons shot down by the czar's
troops during the uprising. Men prominent in the new government took part
In the burial service to honor the dead and a vast crowd attended.
FALLS 13.Q0O FEET
(LONDON, June 28. When the
British brought down a Zeppelin on
the east Anglican coast, they captured
two members of the crew, who escap
ed death as the airship plunged to
earth. This fact was made known to
day by the admiralty. One of the pris
oners is an officer and the other a pri
vate. The private's legs were broken.
The officer escaped unscathed. The
Zopnelln fell 13,000 feet and was in
flames when it reached the ground.
The above undoubtedly refers to
the air raid on the east and southeast
coast of England early Sunday morn
ing, June 17.
An eye witness of tho fall of the
Zeppelin, as quoted by the Central
News, says there were three surviv
ors of the disaster. One of them
when challenged, claimed that he was
the enptain of the Zeppelin, lie was
uninjured. The other two men vcfp
taken to the hospital apparently in a
dying condition,, but since then have
recovered.

WASHINGTON", Juno 28. More

a national tragedy, according to
Carl Vrooinnii, assistant secretary of

sued today urges its conservation n
a war measure by American farm
ers.
"This is the. prize waste of cham
pion wastrels of the world, the
world's greatest single prcvcntuble
economic leak," said Mr. Vroomnn.
"Here is n job for the American
farmer which ought to challenge his
pride and patriotism. It is not simp,
ly a colossal war measure. It is n
measure which, if put into practice,
will permanently benefit American
agriculture."
