June 25 Daniel T. Hinkley of Wading River, whose mo torcar was taken from him by two men last Monday afternoon, positively identified Walter Barber and Stephen Levser. yesterday, as the ones who had held him up. Barber and Leyser were brought back to the Suffolk County Jail yesterday after having been captured in Ja maica. They escaped from the River head jail Monday, and Hinkley's tele phune report to Warden Walter Wig gins that his car had been taken from him, was the first Intimation the warden had that all of his prisoners were not present.

The two men were placed In close confinement and the liberties they en joyed in the past, janitor work about the county buildings, playing baseball, and freedom of the yards, will henceforth be to them but memories. They will be given no such opportunity as they had last Monday, to escape again. Sheriff Kelly had no comment to make on Barber's statement that he and Levser passed the Sheriff three times on the road, but was enthusiastic in his praise of the Jamaica police, especially Patrolman Jo'hn Bunte of the 120th precinct, who first suspected the identity of the two dusty men trudging along the Jericho Turnpike at 4 o'clock in the morning. The authorities have not been ab'e to obtain any trace of the motor bandits who pursued Mrs. George Armsoy along the Cold Spring road near Huntington as she was returning from a dinner party at the home of William Faversham, the actor.

So far no connection has been established between Barber and Leyser and the men who used a limousine following Mrs. Arms-by's car. Barber returned to the jail wearing a hat with the initials In it, and Leyser had a heavy sweater. Neither would tell where they procured the garments. LOUISIANA "WETS" FIGHT "DRY" PLANK Wire Bryan They Will Not Be in Sympathy With Platform Containing It.

New Orleans, June 25 (Convention) Declaration that they would "not be in sympathy with any Democratic platform which ignores our demands for the modification of the Volsted Law" is made in a telegram addressed by tho Louisiana Liberty League to William J. Bryan and "the chairman and members of the platform committee of tho Democratic National Convention." The league, according to its president, Arsene Perrilliat, has more than 15,000 members in Louisiana. Addressing Mr. Bryan, the league In its telegram said it wished to take issue with him on the matter of prohibition, and added: "You and the school of thought you speak for violate the spirit of our country and the intent of our Constitution every time you attempt to inforce in the form of sumptuary-laws your extreme, impracticable and unwholesome views on the people of this country. "We are glad the saloons have been closed, but in denying us the beverages with our meals and in our homes to which, during many generations, our families have been accustomed your school of class control has done us a very great detriment.

"We as voters will not be in sympathy with any Democratic platform which ignores our demands for tho modification of the Volstead law. It is an undeniable fact that millions of once law-abiding citizens have become deliberate law violators and are now encouraging smugglers and moonshiners in the sale and distribution of harmful liquor."

Some 2,000 people were scattered on this beach and bathing In the surf when suddenly a cry for help came from the water. A lifeguard shot his boat to the man who gave the cry and had gone under.

A former scholastic football star, who happened to be nearby, dived, seized the drowning man and swam with him to the beach. The lifeguard, seeing that the man had. been rescued, rowed back and opened the tiny emergency hospital on the beach. When the unconscious swimmer was dumped on the cot he was given the customary exercise to clear him of water, but after all something was lacking. A hurried consultation took place between the lifeguards.

Walter J. Carlin letter to Gen. O'Ryan was brought to light today in a statement given out by Col. Carlin himself. Speaking in connection with the court of Inquiry that is to be held to probe allegations made by him, he said: "I have seen the order creating a court of inquiry.

It is a very Interesting document. In the letter I addressed to the commanding general I referred to the dishandment of the regiment and made certain statements about discipline." "Do you mean discipline among the officers of your late command?" "Yes." answered Col. Carlin. "And after this I filed formal charges. Therefore I do not understand why the court of Inquiry is being held, for when charges are tiled there is nothing to be Investigated.

According to tho law the next step is a court-martial." I Tlocirtnllll t'tei-u illvluinn nt I rolr ulr ill Work on Beach ear. Intelligence shown in the employee's eyes. "Yeah," he said, "I have some. Just a minute. I'll get It." He ran into the bathhouse.

A roar went up from the spectators. The bearer of the bottle went Into the shed. The door was slammed and the expectant crowd waited.

Third ana last comes the cause of the excitement. He staggered to the door, a grin on his features. As he blinked at the strong sunlight he says: pJarrowsh eschape.

The crowd looked In the door. The bottle lay empty on the floor. Then the lifeguard went out in his boat to wait for the next case. LANSING HOME, RAPS U.S. FOREIGN POLICY Tells Watertown Lawyers Politics Should Be Dropped in International Dealings.

Watertown, N. June 25 Robert Lansing, former Secretary of State, returned to his old home in Watertown for the first time since leaving the Cabinet and was tendered a formal welcome by the Jefferson County Bar Association. The greeting took the form of a dinner, at which Mr. Lansing spoke on the work of the State Department and matters of foreign policy. "While I relinquished the portfolio or state with a sense of having cast a uuruen oi responsibility which was becoming there was one thing which I deeply regretted," Mr.

Lansing said. "That was that I unable to carry through a plan which I had mapped out for a completes reorganization of the Department of State and for the expansion and general improvement of our diplomatic and consular services. I should have liked to have left such a permanent record of my services. I only hope that some other Secretary will carry through the work so much needed. "There ought not to be a Republican foreign policy or a Democratic foreign policy.

There ought to be only an American foreign policy, based on principles to which both parties can subscribe. Let us fight our political battles over domestic questions; but when it comes to dealings with other countries let us present a solid and unbroken front."

ACTION ON WAGES WILL AID TIEUP President Wilson's request to the Railroad Commission urging Immediate action on wage schedules to prevent further outlaw railroad strikes will have a beneficial effect on the harbor tieup in New York, it was ex pected today. T. V. O'Connor, Inter national president of the Longshoremen's Union, said today, that as soon as this action is taken, it will enable the Interstate Commerce Committee to fix new railroad freight rates, thereby enabling the coastwise steamship lines to increase their rates and to meet the wage demands of the striking longshoremen. It was thA nnininn nt Mr Ci'Cnnnn- tfiat the delay in fixing the new rate by the Interstate Commerce Commission was due largely to the uncer tainty as to what wage schedules would prevail.

If this is cleared up, he felt, he said, the Commission would take immediate action and enable the coastwise steamship lines and the strikers to settle their differences. Col. F. A. Mollter, chairman of the Citizens Trucking Committee, an nounced today that the fifty-four trucks operated by this committee yesterday had succeeded In moving 227 tons of accumulated freight from the plors of the Ocean Steamship Company, the Clydo-Mallory Lines and the Morgan Line Piers.

W. Bliss Company, from which he sought to recover $300,000 for his work in inducing Secretary of the Navy Daniels to remit penalties for delayed war torpedoes aggregating $3,600,000. Senator Towne told the Jury that because of his long acquaintance, with josepnus with whom he became acquainted while the presenl Secretary was chief clerk for the Secretary of the Interior and the plaintiff. Senator from Minnesota, the Navy Department had laid aside its long standing prejudice against the Bliss" Company to the extent of crossing offJ the penalties and making a new con tract for 20-year royalties. The company claimed that it was not Towne's work that brought about those happy results but two of the company's officials had the things! done after conferences with high ofn cials of the Navy Department.

The company today moved to set aside the verdict and for a new trial and Justice Callaghan denied the motion. Walter J. Carlin- and Thomas Downs were Senator Towne's attorneys. Sues for Unpaid Alimony. Mrs.

Brooklyn fur workers have been called out on strike by the Internatton- al Fur Workers' Union, which has been conducting a strike against Manhattan manufacturers of fur garments for the past month. The calling out of the Brooklyn workers came this week following the presentment of new de mands to the employers by the union, the new demands being far more dras-tlo than were made when the strike began during the last week in May.

The Brooklyn establishment prin cipally affected is that of Balch, Price which has about eighty em ployees. These employees went out for a day or so last May when the strike was originally called, for the "moral effect" of expressing their sympathy. The strike now ties up some work on repairs and alterations at the local house, though so far as the manufacturer generally is concerned, the strike could not have come at a better time, for orders for garments Irom the manufacturing wholesaler are not large at thin time. ur cutters who do a highly spe cialized and skilled line of work, receive anywhere from $75 to $125 a week, and the $100 pay envelope is frequent among the workers. The trade now has a 44-hour week, and the principal demand when the strike was called was for a 40-hour week.

The new agreement provides, among other things that no establishment shall operate more than five days a week or shall take on a new worker who has not a union card, that every skin submitted to a worker shall contain a union card showing that it has been dressed and dyed in a union shop. May Day is to be observed as a legal holiday, without pay. Most of the manufacturers are for fighting the thing out to the end. TO TRY REALTY MAN ON FORGERY CHARGE The June Grand Jury today e-turned an indictment for forgery in the second degree against Henry Heuchel, 52, a well-known real estate operator residing at 249 Marlborough Flatbush.

Mc-Dermott, Heuchel, through his counsel, indicated his willingness to plead guilty to the lesser charge of forgery in the third degree. When Judge McDermott declared that he would remand Heuchel to jail until sentence was imposed, he changed his mind and entered a plea of not guilty. Heuchel is charged with having fraudulently receipted a tax receipt for the purpose of proving that the back taxes on a parcel of property were paid up. He was released on ball for trial. After a Jury returned a verdict of guilty of robbery In the first degree against him, John J.

McWalters, 22, of 883 K. 12th st, declared in court that he was Innocent of the crime charged against him and that his brother was the guilty man. He was charged with two others of having held up and robbed Fred Michelson of 1436 E. 10th st, last January. Judge McDermott will make an investigation of the circumstances before sentencing him.
