Mike McDowell had the misfor- a tune to fall at the High school building yesterday during the recess hour ? and broke his leg. He was taken to the hospital and given attention. s< ed and the diplomatic correspond- e ence apparently turns upon the suestion as to whether the schooner was in touch with >snore through her j, own boats. y( The case is the first of its kind to hi arise under the administration pol- e< icy recently announced of confin- m ing prohibition enforcement opera- b( tions strictly to the three mile limit _ of territorial waters except in the one circumstance of^A vessel beyond that limit but sending contraband k shipments ashor^in her own boats. The American^ position in that re. M crard is help to rest on internation- iU al precedent. JEh^tthe British authorities are convinced the Emerald case does not fall within the rule was made plain by the promptness with which ^ a protest was lodged with the state department. Framing of the American reply ^ neccessaraly awaits an official report from the treasury setting out the facts of the seizure. Should that sustain the belief here that the ship . was using her own boats to shore , ]0| when settled presumably the diplomatic phase of the incident would the?n be closed and the case be al- , DC lowed by the ^British to go to legal g determination. .. ea ' 1 or $800 5 Li >tten from the ? kn NDARD... eh I with the Octoow forming. . ^ smaller amounts n. s LDING & LOAN M A nnxrv*! f\ i njrN 'OIF, Secretary Ja TERS BANK. ! by 1 rm ? off At omfort? >my | CO ur family?keep your 1S| witk be sti E'S ' s sJAL vo ? 4-w til HEATER u le< and night.
