When?
Point Barrow did not send any elec
tion returns says the Nome Industrial
Worker. U. S. Commissioner Rich
ardson, at that point, explains that
there were only five voters there, in
cluding the illiterate wife of a trader,
and so, although they have the honor
of having the largest voting precinct
in the world they did not want the
honor of casting the smallest vote.

NORFOLK, Va., March 19.—When
United States Marshal Saunders took
possession ofthe liner Appam after
the break with Germany he found
installed there a secret wireless ap
paratus by which all wireless mes
sages sent in this section of the coun
try were read.
A fine wire was strung beneath the
pipe leading to the whistle on the
smokestack of the Appaim and ex
tending above it as do the regular an
tennae of wireless. The wire led to the
interior of the vessel where dynamos
were kept running to make the cur
rent for lighting the ship.
Investigation, it is said, led to the
discovery that the wire finally ran
to the room occupied by Lieutenant
Hans Berg, where the messages were
recorded by flash from an electric
light bulb.
Later investigation developed that
the dynamo in the boiler room had
been used to take the place of that
in the wireless room, which was put
out of commission when the United
States court took charge. Messages
could be sent and also received.
