Mr. was in New Haven 2reday identiticd as his property a wheel in the prisoner’s possession. He also proved ownership of a coat worn by the accused, & The prisoner was taken into cus- tody a few days ago, the police hav- ing become suspicious of him because of his efforts to sell the wheel.

In the morning it was found that a window in the place had been broken open from the inside and the unfastened froin the outside bicycle was found to he missing It Is believed that at the time the wheel was put away the thief was in the barn and that subsequently he made his exit through the window returning via the door and appro- priating the bicycle, License Fecs Come Slowly.

Berlin Newspaper Says in Bditorinl Article Scoring America For Un- ‘mpathetic Contentment. Berlin, April 21, via London, 12:48 p. m.—The Post, in an editorial ar- ticle entitled *“The American troubles’ casts doubt upon the genuineness of the accident which caused the ground- ing of the Japanese cruiser Asama in Turtle Bay, Lower California. The paper says there are two pos- sible explanations of this incident. One is an effort to put pressure upon Washington to relleve the situation at Peking, while the other Is an attempt to secure a naval base in Mexico. This would touch America’s sorest point, the paper says, namely, the Monroe Doctrine. America must | cither give Japan a free hand in China or demand that Japan leave Mexico. This latter would mean war. Continuing, the paper says: “Ger- many would view such a war with mixed feelings. While we do not do- sire a victory of the yellow race over thé white, nevertheless America hes no claim to the love or respect af the yermans. We would be satisfied to know that this country, which first be. came a state at an expenditure of CGierman blood and German energy, should, from its present condition of unsympathetic contentment, come to know the bitter necessities of war."” 1b.
