WASHINGTON, May 24—A bottle
containing a message purporting to
w from Harry Hawker, the Austral
jan aviator lost in an attempt to fly
wross the Atlantie, was picked up
today 3 miles south of Narragansett
Pier and conveyed to the Navy De
partment.
The message was dated May 19 at
I:3¢ a. m., and stated:
“Accident to rlane and I am drift
ing in a collapsed boat. Latitude
51.30 N. and longitude 15.30 K,
“HAWKER.”
Navy Department officials believed
the message a hoax. They pointea
out that the position mentioned is
somewhere in BEurope, and even had
the longitude been west instead of
enst, the position would be off the
coast of Ireland. It would be impos.
sible for the bottle to drift practically
across the Atlantic in six days.

A most exciting and - spectacular
whisky raild was staged Saturday at
noon by Officer Payne and P. V. West
in the heart of the business section,
at Broad and Alabama streets.
Nearly 40 gallons of whisky were
seized and three prisoners. R. C.
Smith, a street car man, and W. L.
Ellington and J. S, Jackson were
taken into the toils. :
The sensational arrests were made
as a result of the watehfulness of thn*
officers. They were riding a car on
Eroad street when an uutomobile‘
passed, covered with mud, which at
tracted their attention. Payne gave
the contents of the automobile the
once-over and decided something wus!
wrong. A bulky object was observed
at the foot of the rear seat, v:nrel’ul]yl
covered with sacks and receiving the
most careful attention from the men
in the car. 1
The officers pulled the bell cord on |
the street car on which they werei
riding near Broad and Alabama
and leaped for the whisky-laden
car. But for the density of traf-‘
sic on the corner there would have
been an exciting race, but with the
“Stop"” sign showing and cars pass
ing down Alabama, there was no
room left for a speed burst on the
part of the occupants of the whisky
car to escape, and they were com
pelled to stop. ;
Attempt to Escape. ‘
Shutting off the gasoline in their
car, the three men leased out ana
started a rauce for safety. Officer
Payne seized Ellison and Jackson at
the corner, while Smith was caught
within a half a block by Policeman
Greer, who was standing nearby and
witnessed the affair.
Suspicious Tonneau.
Under the cloth at the foot of the
rear seat was found a wooden keg
containing about fifteen gallong of
whisky. The rear seat was divided
into compartments, into which fitted
snugly two large five-gallon cans and
four small cans of the type used for
carrying automobile oils. Two one
gallon cans were discovered under the
front seat and a half-empty quart
syrup bottle out of which the men
had evidently been drinking.
~ Hundreds of persons were drawn to
the scene, and soon & mob of almost
uncontrollable proportions was packed
and jammed about the machine con
taining the whisky. The prisoners
were rushed off to jail, while the
plainclothes men who had made the
arrest remained for an hour with the
automobile at the foot of Alabama
‘\slreet.
Pleas for “just one drink” from the
crowd went unheeded. A negro who
brought hig coffee can to be filled
with the precious fluid was elbowed
away by a husky piano mover, who
wanted the job of transporting the
big keg to police headquarters, The
big crowd stared thirstily at the array
of cans set out by the officers to be
photographed by a flock of photogra
phers.
License No. 52,120,
The automobile license number was
52120, It was not known from what
geetion the car was brought, but the
officers expected to get this informa
tion from the men who boeldly piloted
the machine through the streets, or
from some of their effects,
It is believed that a system has
been uncovered which will eventually
lead to the discovery of the main &ar
tery by which Atlantans have been
supplied. Federal authorities began
co-operating with the local police on
the case within 80 minutes, and ex
pect to add materially to the amount
of whisky already seized within a few
hours.
Officer Payne, whose eagle eve led
to the startling arrest, was dressed in
plain clothes. Occupying the front
set of the car and surrounded by uni
formed officers, he soon became the
target of pitying glances from by
standers who arrived late on the
scene, believing that he was the
moonshiner who had been arrested.

‘ WASHINGTON, May 24.—Formal
announcement was made to the House
; .
today by Chairman Fordney, of the
ways and means committee, that
there would be a general revision of
the tariff law. In making the an
nouncement Fordney said:
“1 learned yesterday that the rail
road administration has decided,
without consulting any other branch
of the Government, to reduce freight
rates on foreign imports entering this
country on the Pacific coast and go
ing to the Atlantic coast.
“I*reight rates on foreign imports
especially from the Orient, will be re
duced from $2.70 per ton to $2 per
ton on less than carload lots and
from $1.57 1-2 per ton on carload
lots to $1.50 epr ton on carload lots,
This reduction was requested by im
porters of foreign made goods, and
not by domestic producers.,
“This is a reduction in every sense
of our present tariff rates on import
ed goods. It is another way of get
ting at lower import dutles. It ap
plies to all kinds of competitive com
modities from Japan and China. Our
tariff rates are down to the lowest
ad valorem rates charged by any
country. They are a fraction below
b per cent ad valorem below those of
China.”

tures, Atlanta spot cotton soared 95
points to 32% cents, or more than
2 cents for the week, and nearly 7%
cents above the vear's 10w—20.05
cents.
lixtremely bad crop advices from
the belt, together with continued low
temperatures and rains and enormous
demand for the actual by exports and
abandonment of the hand-to-mouth
policy on the part of domestic mills

aggressive buying, which was led by
trade houses, spot firms and shorts.

PARIS, May 24.--Additional sug
gestions for changes in the economic
demands on Germany were handed to
President Wilson today by Beinard
N. Baruch, one of the leading eco
nomic experts on the Ammerican peace
mission,
These are additional to the sugges
tions made earlier in the week and it
is belicved they will go a long way in
meeting the objections of the Ger
mans. However, in this connection it
is made plain that the concessions
deal with the methods of payment
rather than reductions, .
Members of the economic commis
sion said the concessions In question
simply restore the plan to the orig?-
nal conditions which the Americans
proposed at the outset At that time
the Americans were hopelessly in the
minority, Since the Germans began
their discussions the French economic
experts have completely changed their
viewpoint and now believe the Ameri
can view necessary.

Men who draw good salaries naturally acquire the habit of
thinking they can always do it. Their ability blinds them to
the fact that the capable men are just as liable to accidents
and the ills of life as their lower-salaried fellows.
A $4,000 man who loses his earning power hits the
ground four times harder than the SI,OOO laborer who is dis
abled. Conséquently he needs to save just four times as '
much.
