The government Is still waiting for the Indication of bow the Swedish governmont regards the disclosures of the part taken by the Buenos Ayres-Swedish legation in transmit ting tho legation dispatches to lier lln. The state department made It clear that It Is not disposed to question the good faith of t) Swedish people, but a distinction between the people and the government Is carefully pointed out. tt Is assumed that Argentine will tuko prompt Btcps toward securing explanation from Sweden. Documents in possession of the United States government show that the Scandinavian country has vio lated American neutrality, and has had transactions with Germany that official Washington expects to lead to a declaration of war against Germany by the Argentine republic. The lat ter has been almost on the verge of such a step for some time, but has been placated by Teutonic promises. Messages were made public by the state department to show that the Swedish government permitted Count Luxburg, the Gcman charge d'af faires In Buenos Ayres, to send com munications to Germany thru the for eign office at Stockholm. These were passed as official Swedish messages. They were In code.

PARIS, Sept. 11.-.-A train of 201 French officers and men arrived in Lyons recently prisoners repatriated from Germany. Of these, not fewer than 155 were out of their minds. Their reason had gone, probably un der some terrllic shell bombardment, leaving them often without any bod ily Injury, Incapable of any mental effort. One, a typical example, was a sec ond lieutenant, apparently 22 or 23 years old. He was calm and quiet, but unable to reply to a question. On his tunic was pinned a card with the words, "Picked up, without a wound, at , 1914." These unfortunates have been In terned at Lyons, and their photo graphs are to be circulated thruout the country In the hope of Identify ing them, so that those who no doubt have long mourned them as lost fo over, may perhaps be able to win them back from their living tombs. An unusually pretty card party was given yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Robert J2. Straborn to seven of Lor friends at the White Pelican ho tel. The tables in the sun room were beautifully decorated with sweet peas and a most enjoyable afternoon Is re ported. The first prise, a work bag, was won by Mrs.'E. Heevner of Sacramen to.

A bullet wound in the bead from his own gun caused the death of Horace Marshall, the" hunter who dis appeared so mysteriously while, hunt- mg tn the Red Blanket country, j ac cording to the verdict rendered -by the Jury impanelled at Fort Klamath, and which made a thoro Investiga tion of the matter: f The body was found by W. R, Ea gle, who has been 'employed oartbe Llak ranch near Fort Klamath, and was only about two mtles.from Mar shall's camp-on the Red Blanket when found. He had been working down a ridge and was only short distance above a trail leading Into camp when the accident occurred. That he may have stumbled with the safety of his gun off while fol lowing a deer, or have stepped on a log near which he was found, or stopped to eat huckleberries and dis charged the rifle accidentally are among the Ideas advanced as to the cause of his death. The nature of the wound shows that the muzsle of the rifle was not over a foot from bis head when dis charged. The bullet entered the right side of the face above tbf fwWtr jaw, going out the back of the head at the crown of tas- hat. When found by Engle he was be side a small log with his head up hill and his hat and, gun on the other side of the log. In the search of his friends for the body, John Lee Ball and some others had stopped to bathe In a little pond a very Bhort distance up the moun tain from where he was found. Coroner A. A. Soule, the Jury and witnesses brought the body oat Sun day, and It was Juried yesterday af ternoon. The jury consisted of O, B. Bunch foreman, T. C. Norrls, A. H. Grain ger, Wllber Miller, Richard Melhase and J. W. Kllkpatrlck. On finding the body of Marshall, Engle telephoned the news immedi ately, and bis locality being misun derstood by those receiving' the mes sage caused the report first given out that It was within five miles of Fort Klamath. .
