'Portugal is not prepared to sub-| scribe to the doctrine engendered by militarism that good faith must be made subservient to expediency and that the interests of one nation may legitimately be fostered at the ex-: pc-nse of the rights of others when ever backed by sufficient force. It is moreover impossible to gainsay after considering impartially all the pub lished evidence, that the British gov ernment labored devotedly nay, even passionately, to avert the war.

STEELTON WOMAN MAY KNOW ABOUT MURDER [Continued From First Page.] 1915, the dead body of Heller was found four miles west of Pemblne, where the three had gone when they left Steelton. After an investigation, the coroner and physicians said that Heller had been shot at least three months before, and the body placed under a pile of railroad ties along the Milwaukee, Chicago and St. Paul tracks near Pembine, 310 miles from Milwaukee. At first the body was unidentified, but later friends in Wisconsin came to the aid of the authorities, who then began a search for the murderer. Three miles away from the place where the body was found, a shotgun | was nicked up. Using this slim clue as a start, the Wilson Detective Agency, of Milwau kee, set Its men to work; traced the gun from the New Haven Arms com pany, where It. was manufactured, to a Milwaukee jobber, and then to a sporting goods store. Here it was learned that the gun had been sold to Heller, and one similar to it, to Knoge. The detectives, then learned that Mrs. Kabor had left her husband af ter robbing him of $265, it is alleged, and came west with the two men, but had returned to Steelton again, after she and Heller deserted Knoge at Hiles, Wis. Harry C. White, head of the White 1 Detective Agency, was notified to lo- ; eate the Kabor woman, and after aj short search, learned that she had re turned to Steelton more than a year I ago, bringing back with her some of Heller's clothing. Arthur J. Hoeft, of the Wilson agency was notified, and came east to see Mrs. Kabor, who was questioned this afternoon. The Kabor woman, it is said, pur chased tickets for herself and the two men when she left the city with them, and later purchased clothing ■ind KUIIS for them in the western city. When she learned, however, that her husband had a warrant out for her a<KH><H>tX>O<H>OCH><>CHJO<KJOODOCH>£>CK3aOCH>OOWaOaOOCH><H>O<H>O<HK> EXPERIENCE | I For 24 YEARS we have been | | making KING OSCAR ] 1 5c CIGARS | £ o v ° ' I from tbe best tobacco money and § | experience could buy, preparing it % [ | it tbe correct manner and blending S || in to mellowness, in proper com- Z 1 | bination. : I JOHN C.
