YOUTH'S DEFENSE OF
POSTOFFICE WINS
REWARD AT LAST
Florida Boy Who Saved
Government Property From
Safe Crackers Is Appointed
Clerk After Five Years'
Wait.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Paul V.
gaula has been appointed a clerk at a
talary of $S00 In tlio Tallahassee, Fla.,
noetoflloe, as a toward for his valiant
defense of that ofllce against desperate
l&fe crackers on January 8, 1910. Ho won
hU light with the buiglars with his boy
ih strength and a revolver of tho cheap
est make, which he had won at a country
fair.
An executive order for the young man's
appointment was Issued last May by
president Wilson, but It lay unacted upon
Jn Government archives until dug up ro
ttntly by Merrltt O. Chance, chief clerk
f the Post Ofllce Department.
The reports of the battle read like talcs
ef the wild and woolly West In the MOs.
J. M. Bauls, father of Paul, lived on a
mall fxm outside of Tallahm with
hli wife and family of eight uilldrcn.
The older Sauls was night watchman In
the Florida post office, and on the night
of January 7 thoro was Blckness In his
family and by special permission of the
postmaster he sent his son, Paul V., then
Just past his 18th year, to stand guard
ever the Government property that night.
Paul took tho Job, unarmed.
After the night clerk left at 1 o'clock
and the fires hod been stirred up to keep
the young watchman warm during tho
night, Paul settlod down to wait for tho
d&wn. After a few minutes there came
a knock at the basement door. On his
way to the door the young watchman
passed the cot of a friend, who was sleep
ing In the building. Under tho sleeper
was a very cheap revolver which the lat
ter had won at a country fair tho evening
before. Paul took It for Bafcty's sake.
"Who's there?" lie called out, before
he slid tho doors apart.
"Here's a mall sack which we found
en the street, and I thought It might
have dropped from the mall cart," came
too answer.
Back the doors went. And as they
opened Paul was confronted by a shining
revolver with the command, accompanied
by an oath, for tho watchman to hold up
his Jmnds. Paul backed a little to one
ildo, and as he did so tho would bo
burglar grabbed first one hand and then
the other, but the watchman had his
hand on the revolver In his pocket, and
he fired, the bullet going through tho
liver and stomach of the burglar. The
latter held on to Paul's nrms with a
death grip. The second burglar, appar
ently unacquainted with what had hap
pened In the darkness, and having ample
confidence In his partner, afterward
found to be Tennesseo Dutch, one of the
most notorious of criminals, came for
ward with a rope to tie the boy. But ho
miscalculated. With a Jerk, Paul got his
hand loose, fired twice and the burglar
fell mortally wounded, both bullets hav
ing taken effect In his head.
All this happened In less time than It
takes to tell It, and Paul was unassisted.
Even his friend, Harrl3on, whom ho left
slcoplng on the cot, thought It wise to
remain awav from the point of contact
established by the ndvance guatri. And
he did rcmnln away until tho smoke of
battle had passed, and while Paul still
watched the property of tho government
and the bodies of tho dying men. Harri
son went In search of a policeman and a
physician Meanwhile the first burglar
war gradually choking tho watchman.
The burglar's head was resting on raid's
rijht shoulder. Paul reached up and
fired, but Dutch shifted his head to a
resting place on tho left shoulder, and
Just as the head landed there Paul fired
over that shoulder, both bullets going
through the bmglar's head. Neither of
the highwaymen ever regained conscious
ness Paul remained in the building In tho
morning until the post office waB opened,
ent home, sat down to his breakfast
table and modestly announced that he
had killed a couple of cracksmen. A Jury
later convened over the bodies of tho
dead men returned a verdict of justifiable
homicide.
SMALL POLICEMAN MAKES
CAPTIVE OF NEGRO GIANT
Captive Threatened to Shoot Her,
Sister-in-law Says,
Residents of the neighborhood of Six
teenth nnd It-jftner sheets late last night
Bnw u coattf-Bs special policeman, meas
uring little over five feet In height,
match a struggling young Negro giant
to the police station on West Haines
street above Germantown avenue.
Ittchardson, who had been sitting coat
less In the police station, wos summoned
on a hurry call to the home of Mrs.
Mnry Law, of 1G03 Ruffmor street, who
said her brother-in-law, Hugh Law, wns
trying to break Into her home In un at
tempt to shoot her. Richardson did not
wplt to get his coat, nnd found that the
woman had fled.
The brother-in-law had succeeded In
brcnklng Into the house and wns engaged
In destroying evtrythlng In Bight, the po
liceman says. A stnigglo ensued which
l ciulted In Itlchardson's triumphant
march to tho station house with the Ne
gro. Low gave his address as 1515 Rowan
street nnd said that ho Is twenty-three
years old. Jfo wns held under $500 ball,
charged with carrying a concealed deadly
weapon.
According to Mary Law, the trouble
started about a month ago when her
brother-in-law, whom she boarded, re
fused to pay for the food ho consumed.
She took the matter to court and was
granted an attachment on tho man's
wages. This enraged him to such a de
gree that ho returned last night, after
an absenco of several weeks, and threat
ened to shoot her.

This Port and Far East.

British Prize Court had adjudicated tho
case of the captured German bark Perkeo,
formerly the Rritlsh bark Brilliant, which
for many years piled between this port

ganese and petroloum. She was one of

SCHANTON, Pa., Sept. 17.-Sllrred to
new enthusiasm by the action of the
Washington party State committee ln In
dorsing Vance C. McCormick as the
Washington party candidate for Gov
irnor, the Democratic candidates and
campaign speakers arrived here this
morning to attend the meeting of the
State Federation of Democratic Clubs.
The entire day Is to be given over to the
meetings of the Federation, and the cam
paigners will not resume their automobile
tour of the State until tomorrow. ,,
Tho campaign party came here from
Lock Haven, whero Congressman A.
Mitchell Palmer last night assailed Sen
ator Penrose for Instigating the Catlln
probe to Investigate the city of Phila
delphia, and then abruptly shutting off
the work of the Commission when It
seemed about to expose tho Inner work
ing of the Penrose organization.
Mr. Palmer challenged Senator Penrose
to tell the people of Pennsylvania Just
why the Commission had suddenly con
cluded Its work. The election of Rudolph
Blnnlcenburg ns Mayor of Philadelphia,
Mr. Palmer attributed directly to the
unexpected revolatltns made to tho peo
ple of that city by the Commission be
fore It dropped out of existence.
The charge that he would Just as leave
sacrifice a friend as a foe If the sacrifice
would accomplish the ends of his political
knavory was hurled at Senatoj Penrose.
Referring to the indictment which he has
made against the Senator, Mr. Palmer
said:
"As I have remarked before, Penrose
talks much about what he has done for
Pennsylvania, and I tell you that you
should stop and think what he has done
tt Pennsylvania. I have not made one
statement about Penrose nnywhere which
ln not absolutely verified by his record.
Whenever I have cited Instances of hlc
votes ln tho Senate I have given the date
nnd the page of the Congressional Record
on which It may be found, so that any
ono may turn to that record himself and
read Penrose's shame."
One of the stops made by the cam
paigners, prior to reaching Lock Haven,
was at the State Grange encampment
nnd fair at Centre Hall. Here Mr. Palmer
had an opportunity to seo the largest
crowd he has met slnco he began his
tour 10 days ago. Fully 5000 persons were
on the fair grounds, although the number
which was able to crowd Into Grange
Hall, whore tho addresses were made,
was comparatively small.
The, candidates spoke ln practically all
the towns ln Mifflin, Centre nnd Clinton
Counties during the course of the day.
Tho automobile tour will be resumed to
morrow morning nnd Lackawanna
County will be covered. Vnnco C. Mc
Cormick, who was not with the party
yesterday, came hero this morning from
Harrlsburg, and will continue the tour
tomorrow.
UNITED STATES. ACTS ALONE
IN PROTEST TO TURKEY
Administration May Not Take Action
Until War Is Over.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Hlgh officials
mado it plain today that the United
States Is "going It alone" ln protesting
to Turkey against proposed abrogation
on October 1 of the capitulations giving
foreigners Important privileges ln Tur
key. The United States Is acting Independ
ently of nnd not In concert with protest
ing European powers, It was stated. That
this Government will probably postpone
until after the European war a decisive
response from Turkey, to prevent the
United States from becoming Involved In
a European Imbroglio wns Indicated. Fur
ther exchanges of notes between the Otto
man empire and this Government for a
thorough discussion of the affair In the
meantime, however. Is deemed certain.
Turkey's reply to the curt protest sent
yesterday by Secretary Bryan through
Ambassador Morgcnthau was forecasted
In diplomatic circles today. It Is under
stood to be the position of the Turkish
government that all rights, privileges
and concessions of Americans ln Turkoy,
both civil nnd criminal, affecting com
merce nnd protection of American mis
sions nnd other property, are amply safe
guarded by Turkish laws, under which
tho American missions, ln particular,
have operated In the past with full pro
tection. Tho following statement Issued by Mr.
Bryan Is a paraphrase of the cablegram
sent to Ambassador Morgenthau:
"You will bring to the attention of the
Ottoman Government that the Govern
ment of the United States does not ac
quiesce In the endeavor of the Imperlnl
Government to set aside the capitulations,
"Furthermore, this Government does
not recognize that the Ottoman Govern
ment has a right to abrogate the capitu
lations, or that Its action to this end
being unilateral can have any effect upon
the capitulatory conventions,
"You will further state that the United
States reserves for the present tho dis
cussion of the grounds upon which Its
refusal to acquiesce In the action of the
uLioiunit uuvernment is oasea, and also
reserves the right to make further rep
resentations In this matter at a later
date."

ROCKEFELLER'S ACT LED
TO DEATH OF VILLAGE
Oil Magnate's Refusal to Pay Taxes
Marked Passing of Hillside.
TARRYTOWN, Sept. 17, - John D.
Rockefeller's nverslon to paying more
taxes than legally required of him put
Hillside, the smallest village ln this state,
out of business. Rockefeller's estate at
Tarrytown extends, or did extend, Into
Hillside's corporation limits, and the
Roard of Trustees of tho latter place
worked out a clever schemo to Increase
Its tax revenue by taxing a large part
of the oil magnate's property.
Everything went well, and the board
was preparing to pave n few more Btrects,
erect a schoolhouse or two and rnjse the
Balarles of certain officials when Mr.
Rockefeller's staff of lawyers swooped
down on Hillside and Informed the village
officials that the proposed tax levy was
Illegal, nnd that Mr. Rockefeller would
fight the Issue to the last court, even If
he had to raise the price of kerosene.
The plan wns dropped; the trustees
voted to dissolve the Incorporation of
the township nnd to pnis Its Indebtedness
of JS000 to tho Mount Pleasant township.

VCRA CRUZ, Sept. 17.-Two former

lines.
Anticipating that they would be fined
for their assault upon the Constitution
alist, tho two former Federal captains"

which they purchased B0 pesos. They
then drew lots and tho winner of the

City Solicitor Advises Com
mission to Withhold New
Appointments Until He
Has Examined Law.
WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 17,-Nothlng
further will be done toward qualifying
the policemen who were appointed on
Tuesday until City Council has consid
ered the subject this evening and de
cided what Is to be done. The point has
been raised that the resolution adopted
by City Council was Illegal. The law
provides that the police force shall bo
enlarged from time to time upon tho
recommendation of Council, but Councils'
resolution authorized the Police Commls-1
slon to Increase the force Instead of
recommending It. The point was pushed
with such vigor that City Solicitor Daniel
O. Hastings advised the Police Commis
sion not to proceed further ln the mat
ter until he could look Into tho law and
go over the matter with the Police Com--mission.
If Council should decide that the reso
lution was Illegally passed and rescind
It, the Police Commission probably will
drop the matter nnd nllow the blame for
failure to Increase tho police force to rest
on tho members of Council. Should tho
City Solicitor decide the resolution legal,
the chances are that the Police Commis
sion will stand by Its appointments.
Tho whole subject has stirred up bitter
feeling among the friends of the two
Police Commissioners nnd Chief of Po
lice Rlnck on one side and tho friends
of tho metnbers of City Council on the
other, Members of Council assert they
are endeavoring to back General I. Pitssey
Wlckcrsham, one of the members of the
commission, In his efforts to Improve tho
Police Department, while tho other side
declares that the Interference of City
Council Is due to a. desire on the part
of some of the members to get even with
the Chief of Police and provent him hav
ing any choice In the selection of men
for the mounted scftind wlhch Is to be
formed. The nssertlon Is made that the
Idea of having nn expert to examine the
police force ntrd suggest changes nnd Im
provements was to got Chief Rlack out
of office, nnd that after John 11. Taylor,
the Philadelphia expert, hnd declared that
Mlack was a good officer, but wni
hampered, his opponents proceeded to
get after him In some other way.
NEGRO IS MUCH ACCUSED
He Confesses to West Chester Crimes
and Is "Wanted in Newton, Mass.
WEST CHESTER, Pa., Sept. 17.-Harry
Kimball, a negro show follower, pleaded
guilty In court hero to having committed
an assault and highway robbery upon
Miss Marie Englund, of Philadelphia, a
week ago, when he beat her and secured
a silver mesh bag and money. Later he
confessed and led tho police to the point
where he had hid the property.
Sentence was suspended by Judge But
ler for th reason that Kimball Is
wanted for a, much more serious offense
nt Newton, Mass., where he Is accused
of beating a woman badly several months
ago. He wilt be sent to that place In
order that tho New England authorities
may deal with hlrn first, but the charge
here will be pressed after ho has served
tho expected term there.

Tramp, Pursued After Murder, Kills
Himself ln Blazing Field.
HARVARD, Neb., Sept. 17. Henry
Trout, a grain buyer, prominently as
fioolatcd with the business affairs of
this town, wont to his ofTice yesterday
and half an hour Inter was found dead,
with two bullets In his heart. Plainly he
had been killed by a robber.
News of the murder spread through
Harvard. Sheriff Charles S. Anderson
nnd his deputy, George Phillips, came
upon a tramp whose notions aroused
their suspicions. As they approached
Mie tramp began firing at them with an
automatic pistol.
The sheriff fell, dying Instnntly. Next
the deputy fell, mortally wounded.
Citizens then formed a posse. Every
automobile In town was commandeered
by officials nnd others, and the Fairfield
mllltla wns called out Probably 600
persons took up the man hunt, nnd a
cordon was formed about the entire
country side.
The tramp look refuge In a hay field
nnd, bnrrlcadcd behind a stack, began
to fight He seemed to have almost an
endless supply of ammunition, for he
fired often. In slight pauses ho would
reload, only to continue the fusillade.
When any part of his body showed re
volvers, rifles and shotguns were turned
on him. Finally the hay In the field
caught fire. The flames swept across the
field llko a huge wave, but the tramp
held his position until they were upon
him. Then he rose to his feet, placed his
pistol to his head nnd blew out his
brains. There Is no clue to his Identity.
