Captain K.

Roger B. Wood, assistant United States district aatorney in charge of the prosecution, in so declaring, in sisted that the entire sum was spent tinder the personal direction of Cap tain Boy-Ed and that from $500,000 to $600,000 of the amount was spent in San Francisco in chartering vessels and obtaining supplies for the German warship and.perhaps the Dres den. William Rand, counsel for the de fense, admitted that the defendants bad hcartered and supplied twelve ships which sailed away from Ameri can ports for the relief of German men-of-war. In so doing, Sir. Rand Asserted, the defendants acted upon orders received by cable from Ger many. , I Vscd Many Ships "Sixteen or seventeen ships were used," Mr. Wood said, "by the defend ants to carry coal, water, wine, sauer kraut and needed supplies to the Leip zig. Dresden. Eba, Santa Lucia, Elea nor Woermer and other German men of-war. These steamers all carried supercargoes placed aboard by the defendants, each supercargo bearing I sealed instructions which were opened .-.fter the vessels steamed awpy, some times within the three-mile limit. "The defendant Kotter, we shall show, signed letters which the super cargoes carried and these letters, ad dressed to the captains of the steam ers selected to supply German war ships, instructed the captains to obey the supercargoes and promised them liberal gratuities for doing so. "We shall show that after these ves sels sailed for Buenos Aires, La Guay ra. Cadiz, Monrovia and other destin ations. the supercargoes instructed the captains to go elsewhere and that the captains obeying these instructions took their vessels to meet German warships at sea and to deliver to the warships the supplies aboard. "We shall show that these defend ants conspired at various meetings to «io all these things; that in so doing they rode rough shod over the laws and treaties of the United States as contemptuously as if these laws and treaties had been mere scraps of pa per." Mr. Wood's address lasted less than forty minutes. W. Rand, counsel for the defense opened with these words: "So far as certain facts are concern ed we concede they are just as Mr. Wood stated them to be." Body of Wm.

The viewers, William B. Oyler, of Newville, Samuel J. Tritt. of Penn itownship, and H. B. Craig, of Ship pensburg. traversed the road which crosses the tracks and were accom panied by a number of attorneys from liarrisburg and Carlisle who represent ed railroad interests, the borough of i Wormleysburg and East Pennsboro township. The viewers within the next few weeks will hear testimony in the court room at Carlisle after which they will make their report. Residents o* Wormleysburg, W. E. Brinton and M. P. Keister. to whose tarms the road leads, and the viewers themselves appear to agree with the railroad that the crossing is dangerous and should be abandoned but they do not believe it should be closed before another road is estab lished. The building of a new road is what the West Shore people desire of the railroad company. Mr. Brinton and Mr. Keister get their mail at Wormleysburg and also buy their groc eries and provisions there. From tbe farms to the town it is now onlv a few minutes but if the road is closed they will be compelled to travel over a roundabout route to the Carlisle pike at Eemoyne and through the con gested district at the west end of the Market street bridge into Wormleys burg. The farmers are willing to have the road closed but they want another opened and they, together with a num ber of Wormleysburg residents, show ed the viewers this morning the logi cal place for a new road. ! At Walnui street, in the upper end |of Wormleysburg, there is a culvert 1 through which a road runs to several | farms in that vicinity. West Shore j folks believe that a road could he Ibuilt from this culvert if it was wid ened and made higher to the Keister land Brinton farms and the viewers 'this morning were favorably impressed with this solution to the problem con fronting them. Wormleysburg and Camp Hill resi dents are interested in the enlarging of the culvert as they believe thut if i his could be accomplished, eventually la new road could be built between the two towns. Along a ravine, directlv I back of the culvert, they say a new i road or boulevard could be built at | very little expense. I J. A. WILMS, POSTM ASTER OF KHIKKMANSTOWX, DIES Joseph A.

Conditions depend upon the speed of a storm headed this way from the Northwest. It is a mixup of rain, snow and chilly blasts. Indications to-day were that this storm would not reach Harrisburg before Fri day. • E. R. Demain, the local weather observer, said the northwest storm might break into btts before reaching Harrisburg after studying the weather map. He said, "chances for fair weather in Harrisburg on Thursday are good." The snow of 'to-day was recorded at the local weather bureau, as only a "squall." Temperature conditions were expected to change the snow flakes into raindrops before the eve ning. It will be from four to six de- 1 grees warmer to-night. The weather to-niorrow will forecast more post- ; tlvely that of Thursday.
