ALLEN SEEN
IN SEATTLE
Seattle, March, 22—According to
reports received at the office ofi the
Sheriff Thursday, "Dr." P. V. Al
len, sought by police and sheriff's
offices throughout the state, has
been outside of Seattle for only a
brief time since his escape from
tho county jail, March 4, and may
still be in. the city. He has adopt
ed a disguise, according to these
reports, and has even purposely
placed himselX in the path of po
licemen in a rash test fif their abil
ity to recognize him.
The sheriff's office is inclined to
givo credence to the story of a
woman who called over the tele
phone Thursday, saying that "Dr.'*
Allen is spending hi? time at the
musical comedy shows and in, cab
arets, with no apparent intention,
of leaving the city. TJiat ho would
be likely to do such a thing is the
opinion of officers 5vho have dealt
with him. He is described ag an
easy-going, careless individual, who
avoided any violence in the jail
break and slammed the door in
the faces of others who might have
escaped with him and his four com
panions, John Soudas. W. A. Coatz,
Robert Ford and P. J. Dusky.

roe LUMBER
Seat'je, .marcm zz—xuus iwr o,
000,000 feet of lumber for the An
chcrage division, of the government
railroad in Alaska will Jjq called for
shortly by; C. E. Dole, purchasing
agent for the Alaskan engineering
commission,. The order "will replace
the recent call for 12,000,000 feet
for the same division.
March 10 bids on the original or
der for the 12,000,000 feet were
opened, with a number of Portland
and Everett firms submitting ten
derh. The prices ranged from $175,
000 low to $200,000 high. Instead
o' making an award, the call -will be
■readveTtised and circu'ars issued for
the smaller amount of material. Mr.
Cole said yesterday that 5,000,000
feet would suffice. . '
The original order called for free
alongside ship, ports of origin, but
the terms of the new call have not
yef been determined. It is likely,
however, that they will be the same,
and tho Columbia Barge Company
and the transport Crook will handle
the bulk of the shipments.
Washington, D. C., -March 15 —la
formation which former Ambassador
Gerard has laid before the state de
partment refutes varjous statements
that Germany might be contemplat
ing altering her campaign, of ruth
1 essness to avoid war with the Unit
ed States.
From evidence Mr. Gerard has
brought and that gathered from oth
er sources, President Wilsoat and
state department official# expect
Germany is fully determined to con
tinue submarine warfare in viola^
tioji of international law in face
of the fact that such a policy prob
ably will lead to war with the Un
ifed States.
President Wilson will continue
with his plan, far putting the Unit
ed States in a state of armed neu
trally and thig state will ooninue
until Germany forces an armed
clash with an, American, merchant
man cr until Germany abandons
ruthless submarine warfare.
Mr. Gerard, called at the state
department today, and amplified his
report of yesterday. The former
ajatassador will probably remain
here until late tonight or early
in the morning and see President
Wilson before his departure for New
York to attend a public reception.
