The father rend the news of the dis

MOROCCANS IN FORCE

Spanish Residents of That Strong

London, Aug. S. (By A. P.)
Moroccan tribesmen who two weeks ngo
f-ignally defented Spanish troops in
Northeastern Morocco, nnd who have
been pressing their ndvnntngc slurothut
time, nre re:ortod to have nppearcd in

Uncertainty surrounds the fntu of
General Navarro nnd f-evernh hundred
men, who were reported lust week to
have been surrounded by Moors on
Mount Arruit. Madrid advices indicate
the fear in official quarters there that

Hairpins Found
in "Murder Car"
Contlnnrd from Tnice One
originnl story of henring a scream at 1
o'clock Mondny morning, July 25. She
snid today that she. was awakened by the
scream, both because of its intensity and
the peculiar note of utmost distress.
Next to the Stosney house lives Mrs.
Snmuel Stlpplck, whose husband found
tho machine last Thursdny. When
questioned ns to the scream she said :
"I did not henr any scream, for I
was sound asleep. But ever since thnt
night the dogs nround here have burked
and barked, and often run down to the
woods and on the other side of the
swamp." She further stated thnt her
dogs did not do this prior to the night
when Mrs. Stosney said that she heard
the scream.
The nx which was found near the
automobile and which bears red stnlns
is now ln the possession of Dr. Dufficld,
Mayor of Glassboro.
Commenting on the hair which wus
found fastened to a small shrub about
100 feet from tho automobile, and which
Dr. Dufficld hns also examined micro
scopically, hcesald: "I have no hesita
tion' In saying that ft is human hair."
Local authorities believe that n body
Is burled In the woods. It wns for the
purpose of finding this that the men
worked all morning, turning up ground
nnd niiHlilng aside underbrush fo
or a
considerable area around the snot where
the automobile wns found. Tho woods
however, arc very drne nnd the crowd
of searchers was small.
Sentence Cafe Man
in Shore Rum Case
Continued from Tncc Ons
said, "and without much difficulty we
found n trench eight feet by eight.
When we dug into It wo came across
burlap bags filled with what felt like
bottles. We cut into the bngs nnd found
that there were three varieties of
whiskv. nil of hhh ounllt.v.
"This defendnut. with the residents
of Bnrncgnt who were arrested, came
mi while we were working. We covered
them with guns and put handcuffs on
tncm. then the other two prisoners.
Mnxwell and Walsh, came up and wo
arrested them too. "
Judgo's Desk Uko Bar
The spectators in the courtroom had
n thrill when Under-Sheriff Brown was
put on the stand. He testified thnt the
bottles unearthed contained whisky.
Throe bottles, one of each of three
famous varieties, were stood in a row
on tho Judge's desk. To many it wns
reminiscent of another kind of bar
when the Under-Sheriff wns summoned
to the bar of the court.
Solemnly the Judge hnnded the
Under-Shcriff a tall black bottle. He
raised it to his mouth. There was n long
gurgle, while those in the courtroom
held their breath. Brown smncked his
lips mid coughed. "It's whisky, all
right," he snid.
Different, but Whisky
The under-sheriff put down the bot
tle. The Judge, solemnly hnnded him
n second. There wus another tantaliz
ing gurgle, and the under-sheriff re
pented his verdict. The Judge, with
out u smile, handed tho third bottle to
the undcr-Micriff, who did the honors
ugaln. When he had downed tho drink
and returned the bottle, the under-sheriff
announced that "it wasn't all of
quite the t-nme quality, but It was alt
whisky."
Prosecutor Plumer testified he had
asked about the ownership of the boo7.e,
nnd Grob had admitted It was his,
i-aying there were eighty or eighty -three
cases of it.
Carlo pleaded for leniency for hli
client, tnyiiig he wns a man well re
spected in Atlantic City, had n family
ami had not been Riilltv of "peddling"
the booze Indiscriminately.
"That is all very well." snid the
Judge, "but no ono can bury liquor in
Ocean County. They might get away
with It lu home counties, but tliry won't
in this, nnd they have to learn that
they (won't."
The Judge, however, was lenient. He
called Grob up before him and said:
"How many children have you:"
Grob answered that he had four,
rnnging down from fourteen to three
years of age. The Judge, therefore, im
posed the three months and $:tr0 fine
sentence. Ho could hnve jailed Grob
for six months and lined him $1100. The
Judge let it be known it was for tlie
children's sake that he was lenient.
Grob and the others awaited trial
without undue complaint. They were
reasonably comfortable, tho jail being
one of the most modern and tmuitno
in New Jersey. It offers n bathtub for
every three cells, and bus running water
in each,
Maxwell and Walsh, nrrested after
the first group had been taken Into cus
tody, denied knowing Grob. However,
according to tlie under-sheriff, one of
them called out when tho muchlne wns
driven up. "Is It all right. Andy?"
And Brown hnd replied in a gruff voice,
"Sure," and put them under urrcbt.
Complains of tho "Onco Over"
Walsh complained in ills cell today
about the thorough "once over" which
had been given his classy big machine.
"Thousands must havo poked Into it
yesterday," lie said. "Thoy even looked
In the tires fur booze. It's a wonder
they didn't drain tho radiator to see If
1 wns cooling the engine with nicohol."
Tho prisoner smiled. "However,"
he snid, "this is n pretty fair jail."
Maxwell's compljitit was thnt the
nuthoiltles hndn't pnessd them in a
bottle of the booze. "It's stored in the
cells right next to mine," said Max
well, "A fellow can't hlto through n
steel wall, however, no matter how
thirsty he is. I think they might hnve
been good fellows and slipped us it
Lott'c or two."
Mnxwell denied that he Is n certain
widely known Atlantic City sport, I
whose name doesn't sound nnj thing like I
Maxwell, Grob, iiuestloued before his
trial, denleil tunt no Knew .Maxwell, n
big and brawny man. "Who's your big
friend?" Grob was asked.
"I haven't any big friend?" Grob
answered innocently,
TITANIC HANGAR
READYF0R ZR-2
Hugo Structure at Lakehurst
Would C6vor 3 City Blocks.
Doors 900 Tons
AWAIT DIRIGIBLE EAGERLY
Lakehurst, N. J., Aug. 8. Thr
world's largest airdrome Is virtually
ready for berthing the ZU-2, the navy's
big rigid dirigible, when It arrives here
from Howdcn, England, after its cross'
Atlantic flight.
"We're ready for her now, let her
come right nlong." said Captain Frnnk
T. Evans, son nf the famous admiral,
"Fighting Bob," as he looked with
pride nt the tremendous structure which
hns reared its height on the cleared
spaco of 1400 acres among the scrub
pines, twelve miles from the orenn.
Every one nt the station, from the
commander down to tho newest gob Is
waiting with impatience the radio
which will tell thnt the huge airship
has shoved off on its trans-Atlnntlc
flight. Every mile of (light from Eng
Innd, where the 'ZR-2 wns built, will
be followed by the high-powered radio
plant, nble to send over 1000 miles and
to receive twice that distance.
Covers Threo Blocks
It is hard to describe the berthing
spot for the ship. It staggers the Imagi
nation to We it looming up in tlie huge
rpen space. Perhaps it may best be
described by saying It would com
pletely cover three Philadelphia blocks
nnd stand about ns high an the Laud
Title Bulldln?. It is 80.' feet long, 2U
feet wide nud 200 feet high, approxi
mately the space covered by the ground
between Thirteenth nnd Sixteenth
streets and Chestnut and Walnut. It is
n structuro which stands out on the
horizon to n visitor ns the Rock of Gib
raltar would t one on nn approaching
steruushio.
From miles away on the railroad a
visitor can marvel at this great build
ing and' watch nnd watch and watch ns
the trnln moves away and still sec It.
It Is to be tbo permanent home of the
first of two great nlr eruiserr of tlie
nation the ZR-2. built in England,
Mid the sister ship, the ZR-1. to be
built her In the pine lands of New Jer
sey. Considerable Yet to Bo Done
There nre still a number of things
to be done at the station before every
thing in absolutely shlpshnpc to receive
this monster queen of the air. But it's
a sure thing everything will be ready
wlifin ihn mocenfrn cl,na ulnfln.l nfplvna
Beside the odd jobs, there's a personnel
of 250 enlisted men to be gotten nt the
station.
Pcrhnps another lden of the size of
the Imngnr may be gotten from n remark
made by a flyer of a heavler-thnn-nir
machine who said he could take a Nleu
port or Spnd or one of tho'e small truck
machines, Inkc-off, fly, make turns nnd
then land, nil within the wnlls.
The building Is of concrete, steel nnd
glass, nmber colored to protect the fnbrle
of the ship's envelope from Injurious
rays of the sun. Two lines of rnllrond
tracks run through it. A dozen freight
ears ln a cornuc look like a lump of
sugar ln n bucket.
Doors Weigh 000 Tong
Perhaps one of the most striking fea
tures of the hnncar is the doors. Each
weighs 000 tons. They aru moved by
four twenty-live horsepower motors.
Tho leaves of the door.i are supported
by wheels the size of those on a ti eight
car. .
Hugh searchlights arc mounted fin
ench comer of the roof to guide the
ship should it arrhc at night. Beside
light from these, there will be more from
searchlights on tlie field nnd nn Illumi
nated arrow on the lauding field.
The Inndlug station nnd hntunr is
in ono of the loneliest spots in this sec
tion of the country. Work was started
clearing the laud of scrub pines buck in
September, 11)11), in charge of Com
mander II. M. Eddy, who is still the
thief engineer in chnrge. With MM) men
and scores of tractors and tank- used
by the marines during the war, stumps
were uprooted from the 1400 acres.
Now all that remains nre the last fin
ishing touches to polish off the place and
have it spick and span when the ZR-2
arrives.
Warships to Stand By
Along the line of travel to be fol
lowed by the great dirigible across the
oieiin will be live warships ready to
stand by should any of its well -laid
pluns go wrong. Through these and
the radio at the hangar, the ollieors and
men on the airship will be notified of
the weather ahead.
The surging Atlantic may ensilv be
seen from the roof of the hangar and
observers will bo posted there when
the ship is known to bo approaching
her destination.
When the watchers on tho top dis
cern the great shining envelope nnd
shout "Stnnd by." 500 enlisted men
will rush out and prepare to seize the
lines which will be thrown out as the
airship hovers over the field.
Some idea of the size of the monarch
of the ulr muy be gullied when one
realizes if it were stood on end it would
reach abovo Philadelphia'!, City Hull
one-third again of thut building's
height.
It enn mnko an ordinary speed of
fifty miles au hour and has a speed of
seventy-five miles when pushed to tin
limit. Under normal conditions, It ini
fly 0000 miles without refueling.
And as for quarters for tlie men who
will iiinke this record flight across the
Atlantic Ocean, they have everv facil
ity whMi would be theirs in the most
in 'di rn hotel.
