breach of neutrality indictment
against Captain Hans Tauscher, for
meny or iho CJerman imperial army,
was dismissed today In the United
States district court upon motion of
N. Y. Stocks
payments of J5 a month thereafter.
Clear tltl will b given to each pur
chsr and th lots are free from ln-
cnmbrances of any kind and will b
jsold with water, paving and sewer
'assessments paid up.
I Tbo mayor himself is donating his
! services as the real estate agent In
these sales, and is now receiving ap
plications for lots from ex-service
men. The price is $400 or $500 a
lot, according to location.
This s'Wc.tageous and liberal of
fer came about at last night's meet
ing of the council to gather up the
odds fcnd ends of the) Jlellnqutent
property situation by which tho city
now has in its possession many de
linquent properties, including the 75
vacant lota in various parts of tho
city on paved streets and which had
been placed in the hands of the real
estato dealers for sale for somo timo
past without succgbs. " . ;
During the discussion Mayor Oatos
got busy with paper and peucll and
us a result of his figuring, finally
broached the proposition to tho coun
eilmen that these lots be sold to tho
ex-ser.vico men as proposed above.
Tho idea met with favor, and action
was taken accordingly. Tho mayor
volunteered to act as agent In sell
ing tho lots, and it was decided to
have) sale contracts printed. Tho
salo will begin as soon as a council 1
others to overthrow lirltish rule in
India through the shipment nf arms
from this country. 'J'aunelier fled
Oermany before he could he brourht
to trial.
Y llllams informed the court that
because of the death or absence of
witnesses, It would lip impossible to
convict Tauscher, Williams said
another indictment remained against
Tauscher in connection with the
steamer Sacramento alleged to have
heen outfitted here against the neu
trality laws for the purpose of sup
plying German warships at sea. The
Sacramento cane was compromised,
however, with the payment of :!S0,
000 to the government by the vessel's
owners, and tho existence of tho In
dictment on the court docket was ex
plained as an oversight. Williams an
nounced he will get in touch with
the attorney general at once to huve
the Indictment dismissed.
