After hearifig the en- couraging reports from Coblenz, the spirits of the besleged ross consider- ably and they sent word to the Ger- man officlals that if the latter wanted the building they would have to come and get it by force. Demand Pm'mlnn Later the structure was entered by British Consul Fein and Belgian offi- cers, by whom Deckers arranged to send a letter to the Belgian command- ing general stating the predicament of the Separatists and demanding pro- tection, At ten o'clock those in the streets heard the rattling of chains and the slipping of bolts from behind the big wooden door, and it was assumed that Deckers and his company were lock- ing up for the night. During the negotiations between the German officials and Deckers, repub- licans and loyalists became almost chummy and to satisfy the photogra- phers who had flocked here from Paris the leaders of the interned band agreed to come into the open if the police would give assurances thern ‘would be no firing. The officers replied that they would do almost anything within reason to accommodate the photographers and «non afterward Deckers appeared at the front door with Fraulein Emily Walters, also a Separatist. These two, with 28 men, posed for the movies for a quarter of an hour. +» Anxious About Wife Deckers, who had been among the besieged since late Monday, was eager to know what had become of his wife.

UNEARTH ANGIEN'I‘ CRAF’I' ON THE PACIFIC COAST Framowork of Rotted Ship Thought To Be Boat of Chinese or Spanish Explorers Los Angeles, Oct, 24.—The frame- work and planking of a craft which has withstood the stress of years and which is belleved to have been used centuries ago by Chinese or Spanish explorers or pirates, have been un- covered many feet beneath the earth's /| surface at Los Angeles harbor in ex- cavations for an oll storage tank. The boat, less than forty feet in length, with high sides, is built of a heavy, thick wood. Some of the tim- bers are half rounded, as is the case in many old Oriental vessels. Metal used to fasten pleces of the craft to- gether had rusted away. The con- struction of the ship indicated that it was not built by Indlans, More than a century ago, channels of the harbor are sald to have extend- ed much farther inland than today, and mariners say they believe the vessel entered, became fast in a mud bank and was abandoned by the crew, What {s believed to be the tusk of a mastodon was uncovered near the timbers, That a Chinese master brought the craft across the Pacific ocean; that it crossed the Bering sea and sailed down the coast to Callfornia, and that it might have heen brought around New Prices Effective October 2, the Ford Motor Company announces the following reduced prices on all Ford Cars and Trucks: Runabout Touring Car - Coupe Four-Door Sedan Chassis Truck Chassis These are the lowest prices in all Ford history.
