PIRACY EPIDENC FOLLONER OF WAR \Geographic Society Points Out Restless Souls Unable to Settle Down. - The theory that pirates are again (nfesting Atlantic waters has been put forward in connection with the grounding of the Caroll Deering and the mysterious disuppeirance of three cther “American steamships. ‘An * epidemic of piracy {lowed in the wake of nearly all of the great wars. Even ax recently as 1815 ‘restless souls who had smelled the blood of battic and feit the intoxi- | cation of dunger became lonth to set- tle down into the peaceful ways of men and commerce, and chose the wide scas as an asylum because they | Irefus -d to live under the law,” says a ibulletin of the National Geographic its Washington head- } ' i | | has fol- i Society from quarters.

The gencral answered, “The 1 Is a huge beast, which silly folk Iride like worms on logs' Conse- iauently the kalif gave orders that {no Moslem should vovage upon it, jbut they soon learned that they must iconquer it if they were to hold the own among other peoples. and they {subsequently furnished some of the | most audacious and picturesque of the I pirate figures. Jamen Brothers of the Sen. I | w 1 “Two of the most during and in- Benious of these were the Barbarossa brothers. ‘Red Heard' terrorized the Mediterranean world from Constanti- {mople to the Pillars of Hercules. The excellent harbors and the island hid ing places made it possible for him to defy the fleets of Englan Spain “and Holland, to le on all the vessels that pa the highwa to capture th laden papal galleys Lound f Rome, In Moslem defiance of Christiandom, land chain_the Christians to their joars. In 1510, at that time notorious and immensely wealthy, he changed the basc of ‘his operations to the island of Jerba, off the coast of Tunis, where the fates ceased to smile so kindly upon him. After many hard-fought battles and vicissitudcs of fortune he fell before the forces of Charles V. of Spain, near Tremizan on African 'soil, He had actually escaped, but upon learning that his ialthful followers were close pressed he returned to die with them. The career of his brother Kheyr-ed-din is 8carcely less romantic. “Piracy on the American ecoast among the French and Spanish navi- gators began before the days of the English colonists. Queen Elizabeth is ‘said to have covertly counte. nanced, as well as helped, expeditions | by buccaneers, and in the West Indies the trade restrictions placed by the various mother countrics led to ac- ceptance by many island governors of wares brought by navigators whom they knew to he freebooters and whose methods they could not afford to question. 1 Piracy Road'to High Office. “Perhaps the most unscrupulous and wily of the perverted sea kings was Heory Morgan of the Caribbees. He was a magnate, an indomitable ruler, a crafty strategist and a com- mander of genius as well a8 a pirate par excellence. 1In fact, he firted with one danger after the other, al- ways to come out on top. He marched into Puerto Principe, in the heart of Cuba, and took it. despite every resistance. He outwitted with un- canny cunning the officers at Porto Bello, in Panama, one of the strongest cities near the Caribbean shores and the sterehouse for the riches which had been brought by Spanish gal- leons and mule pack8 from the in- terior. He escaped with an ines- timable amount of gold and jewels, ingeniously employing a fire ship{ against the Spanish to accomplish his | e¢scape when he was bottled up inl Maracaibo lake. Finally he took and | sacked the city of Panama. Then, leaving his companions in the lurch, he slipped away at night with ali the booty to Jamaica, ingratiated himself with the governor, and was clever enough to get himself into the graces of the English king, who knighted him and made him lieuten- ant governor of Jamaica for his ‘long experience of that colony.’ “In our boyhood storfes of Capt. Kidd were frequent. The subject of the narralives was really a respecta- b sailor in the merchant service, with a wife and family in New York, when he was commissioned by the English king, in 1690, with power to seize and destroy off the American coast all pirate ships. Having been given ships and crews to accomplish the purpose, he gayly set sail across the Atlantic, around the Cape of Red sea to ravage East India waters and convert to his own uses his cap- tures. Then he hied himself, so the story goes, to West Indian waters and buried his superfluous treasures before he finally went to Boston, where he was captured, sent to Eng- land for trial, was executed and his body left to dangle in the wind for years as a warning to sailore.” PAY TAX THIS MONTH. Corporations to Contribute Total of $80,000,000 on Stock. Taxes on corporation capital stock, which the internal revenue bureau is preparing to collect this month, are expected to bring $90,000,000 from 325,000 separate Sources, according to notice just made public.
