MAKE PUBLIC TEXT OF NOTE ASKING GERMANY TO I RECONSIDER HER REFUSAL TO SETTLE THE WILLIAM K P. FRYE CASE OUTSIDE PRIZE COURT PROCEEDINGS Note from U. S. Delivered to German Government Last Satur day bv Ambassador Gerard—Declares Admission of Liability l nder Treaty of 1828 Makes Prize Court Unnecessary REFUSAL TO ACCEPT CONTENTION THAT GERMANY HAS RIGHT TO PREVENT CARRYING OF CONTRABAND Washington, June 28.—By agreement with the German eign office, the state department made public tonight the ^text of the note sent on June 24 by the United States asking I Germany to reconsider her refusal to settle by direct diplo tmatic negotiations instead of by prize court proceedings, the claim presented on behalf of th captain and owners of the American ship V illiam P. Frye, sunk with her cargo of wheat, by the commerce raider Prinz Eitel Friedrich. Ambassador Ge .rard cabled that he had delivered the note last Saturday aft ernoon. The American government declares that, inasmuch |a? Germany has admitted liability for the sinking of the Frye ;under the treaty of 1828 prize court proceedings are unnec essary and not binding upon the United States. Aside from the question of how the indem nitv should be paid the note ^brings out clearly the refusal of the United States to accept the contention that Germany h as a right to stop the carrying contraband by American ships, “by the destruction of Jtraband and the ship carrying it.” con AUSTRIA WILL NOT FORWARD ANT KAIL FROM THE HOLY SEE Washington.

BOARD OF TRADE Submarines Mentioned While no mention of submarines was made in either the las! German note r the present reply, occasion was taken to deny this right because of a belief that admission of it now might, in the ft tare, be used as a justification for submarine attacks on American shijis. Excerpts of Note. Here follow excerpts of the note which is addressed by Secretary Lans ing i Ambassador Gerard in Berlin: "if the government of the United Sicu.-- correctly understands the posi tion of the Imperial German govern ment as now present, it is that the provisions of Article 13 of the treaty of 1TPP, between the United Slates and Prussia which is continued in force by the treaty of l$2$ justified the com mander of the Prinz Eitel Friedrich in sinking the William P. Frye although making the Imperial German govern ment liable for the damages suffered in consequence, that, inasmuch as the ire:.ty provides no specific method for ascertaining the amount of indemnity to lie paid, that question must be sug mitted to the German prize court for at tormina Lion. ■‘Thr. Charles P. Bancroft, superintendent j of the New Hampshire State Jiosnital for j the Insane at Concord. T)r. Bancroft. testifying as an expert alienist, said that he had examined Thaw both men tally and physically over a period of three weeks and had tested his mental copdition "'for reaction from every pos i sible angle.” He said that the members of the eom mission had gone over in detail with j Thaw all the circumstances of his life and omitted no topic which might bring to the surface the delusion from which the state alleged Thaw was suffering at j the time he shot Stanford White an 1 still is—that he was ‘‘Divinely appjinted the protector of American girlhood.” “We found him perfectly sane and ra i tional,” said Dr. Bancroft. He said on cross-examination that a true paranoiac such as the state charges Thaw to be, I might, for a time, submerge his delus;on so as to defy the tests of the most ex i pert alienists, but did not thinit that i this could be done for more than two or i three months. FRENCH BARK DUMFRIESSHIRE SUNK ON MONDAY I London. June 28.—6.ad P. M.—The j French baric I>umf“!e£shire, 2J65 tons gross, which sailed from San Fran I cisco Jan. 22 for Dublin with a cargo of barley, was sunk today by a Ger man submarine. The crew was land ed at Milfordhaven, Wales. CORNELL WINS ’VARSITY REGAHA IN GREATEST RACE IN HISTORY WITH STANFORD MAKING HARD BATTLE TO THE FINISHING LINE I Poughkeepsie. N. T„ June 2S.—In a tri-1 angular battle unequalled in regatta his tory, Cornell won the varsity four-mile race here late this afternoon, defeating Leland Stanford hy eight feet. Trailing the Californians came Syracuse, exhaust ed by the struggle, but still gliding over the line two lengths ahead of Columbia, which crew wrested four place from 1 Pennsylvania in the last mile of the pre mier feature contest of the Intercolle giate regatta. Cornell’s victory gave the Ithaca university an e4$‘on the crews of the other four colleges "entered, for the r.ed and White junior eight had pre viously won the event for second crews while the Freshman race had been cap tured by the Syracuse first year oarsmen. All Forecasts Wrong In the long drawn out struggle down the course all forecasts and expert pre dictions went astray. Crews selected to fight in the fore wallowed in the wake of j eights not considered to have a chance I for first place. The Stanford combine. tion, almost 4000 miles from home with few if any supporters, and only a few days' training on the Hudson, furnished the greatest upset of all. Passed up in the preliminary predictions, these giant oarsmen from the Pacific coast Bhowed that, although their rowing form might not be quite so finished as their eastern j rivals, their hearts, muscles and endur- j ance equalled anything possessed by the crews that measured sweeps with them today. Stanford's Fight From the moment that Stroke Maurer drove his blade into the water, Stanford was a factor in the struggle and at the finish thousands were shrieking and cheering the Far Western crew on. while the prow of the Cardinal snell was slip ping, a few seconds too late, past the Cornell crew. Syracuse, beaten but not disgraced by the temnc pace of the last mile, was easily passed by the Stanford I shell, but Coach Courtney's oarsmen were made of sterner stuff and although faltering at the finish had just strength j to hold their headway till the judges’ j boat had been passed. What the result! i would have been had Stanford started its last spurt a trifle sooner, only a prophet could tell. Th* Three Leaders From the flash of the pistol, the race I resolved itself into a struggle between Cornell. Stanford and Syracuse. The Californians caught, the water first and drove into the lead rowing 86 to the minute. Syracuse hit up a 40 pace and second over Cornell, rowing 86, while Pennsylvania and Columbia strobed off at 32. Syracuse forged into the lead just before the half mile buoy with Stanford showing the way to Cornell by a quarter of a length. At the mile Syracuse led by half a length over Cornell with Stanford third, a length ahead of Pennsylvania and Co lumbia last. Syracuse was rowing 23. Stanford 29, Syracuse 32, Penna. 29 and Columbia 24. There was little change in positions or strokes at the mile and a half, but at the two-mile flags, Cornell was row ing an easy 28 and showing the way (Continued on Page 12—Col. 3) THE WEATHER PARTLY CLOUDY.

RUSSIAN REAR GUARD ACTION BROKEN DOWN BY TEUTONS’ FIERCE ASSAULTS

Petrograd Admits Retreat as Germany Claims Capture of Halicz and Crossing Dniester

Experts Infer Grand Duke Nicholas Has Tak en Opportunity to Reform His Lines Without Interference—River San Probable Site of Next Stand 1 |NEW RUSSIAN CABINET GENERALLY APPROVED—ITALIANS NEARING RIVA London, Juno 28.—10.30 P. M.—Berlin reports the fall of the Galician tov.’n of Halicz an d says that the Austro-Germans have crossed the Dniester river, which means that the five days desperate rear guard action by the Russians has ended in their retirement. However, the stubborn resistance of this flank of the forces of Grand Duke Nicholas, commander in chief of the Russian armies, has undoubtedly enabled him to reform his lines along the river Bug virtually without inter iference. The river San now takes the place of the Dniester as the scene of a sanguinary battle in the Russian effort to prevent the investment of Warsaw. Petrograd admits the retirement 5 of the Russians to the river Gnila Lipa. which is some 80 miles i from the frontier and falls into the Dniester at Halicz, but military experts do not expect h eavy fighting along that river. They express the opinion that the next serious battle probably will occur along the Zlota Lipa river, which runs parallel to j the Gnila Lipa further eastward, where the Russians would benefit by the railroad with which the Tarnopol line connects. These operations and plans, according to military men. confirm the theory that the Dniester forces were merely covering for I the northern army. Cabinet Conference The re-orgar.ized Russian cabinet has returned to Petrograd after a field conference with the Emperor and Grand Duke Nicholas. The Russian press devotes considerable attention to the reconstruction of the cabinet, the convocation of the Duma and the mob j ilization of industry for war purposes, one writer declaring that the pro nounced "We" and “They” as applied to distinguish the government from the people will now cease to exist. New Minister of War General PelinvanofT. who has been designated as minister of, war was assistant minister of war during the reorganization of the army following the Russo-Japanese war. He has the reputation of being an excellent sol dier and organizer and enjoys consid erable popularity on account of his liberal views. Italian Advances. Through passes 5000 feet In altitude the Italians have entered the Austrian territory south of Riva on the western side of Lake Garda. They are now within six miles of Riva, which is the only important town on this lake. On the Western front the only im portant actions according to the brief French report consisted in the repulse of German attacks on the Calonne j trench and near Metzeral. On the oth er hand Berlin claims that the French attacks at all points were repulsed. The munitions bill will not become a law until next Thursday, the com j mittee stage having been postponed at the request of David Lloyd George, minister of munitions, for further con ferences with the workers. BURGLARS BLOW BRADLEY S IFE AND GET BUT $60 Bangor, Me., June 28.—Burglars early today blew the safe of Postmas ter F. C. Barton of Bradley, after en tering the store by means of jimmies. The noise awakened the village and the men left hurriedly, overlooking a roll of bills that had been blown to the floor, and obtaining only about $60 in cash. They took no stamps. Three men were seen to leave the store im mediately following the explosion and are believed to have crossed to the Old Town side of the Penobscot by a small boat. An energetic search is being made but no trace of the men LtaAFSttoen, found. -i KNIFE USED IN AN AFFRAY ON LAURU ST. Members of Polish Colony Have Altercation Which Results in Stabbing of One on Monday Night ALLEGED ASSAILANT IS ARRESTED HOUR LATER As the result of an altercation which occurred at about 9.15 Monday eve ning In the yard of the house num bered £7 Laurel street Walenty Ma surek. aged about 28 years, is suffer ing from a knife wound on the left breast, while Tony Wrubel. aged about £6 years, is a prisoner at the police station, suspected with having in flicted the wound in Mazurek’s breast. The wound is not considered danger ous but had it been a little further to the right and lower it might have been of a more serious nature and perhaps fatal. Both men are members of the Polish colony. Alleged Details From the little which could be learn ed last night of the details of the af fair "Wrubel, who is peaceable enough when sober, is considered a bad man when he has been using liquor, was in the yard above mentioned just be fore the cutting took place and was indulging in loud talk and when Ma zurek came out of the house a dispute arose between the two men which soon increased in violence and speedily reached a point where Wrubel is al leged to have drawn a knife and struck Mazurek in the breast. Follow ing the trouble, which is said to have occurred in the presence of quite a number of people, Wrubel disappeared and Mazurek, who was bleeding pro fusely and was thought to have been badly wounded, was hurried to police headquarters and a surgeon sum ironed. Dr. p. T. Berube responded and up on an examination being made it was found that Mazurek had received a gash about two and one-half inches in length on the left side of the left breast, high up toward the shoulder and nearly in the armpit. The knife blade had cut through the skin to the muscle but luckily had not gone deeper. Dr. Berube stopped the flow of blood and dressed the wound, tak ing three stitches to close it, and it was not anticipated last night that any serious results would follow. In the meantime Deputy Marshal (Continued on Page 12—Column 7) U.S. STAND IN HUERTA CASE IN LINE WITH NEW POLICY V Determined to Prevent' As Far as Possible, Any Further Revolu-j tionary Movements in Mexico SURVEILLANCE OF LEADERS’ MOVES Watching Generals Diaz, Mondragon,, Blanquet and Ange les, Who Are in U.

Six Distinct Groups According to information thus far gathered there are at least four sepa rate and distinct groups apart from the Villa and Carranza supporters in the United States, who are active po litically in the Mexican situation. The information gathered by government agents discloses that the varoiug groups have a common purpose in op posing Carranza and Villa but are working independently of each other.

He was in communication with Secretary Lansing and other Washington offi cials. There was no indication tonight that any of the business brought be fore him was of such a pressing na ture as to take him hurriedly back to Washington, but he is keeping him self ready to leave Windsor at any time. The President refused to make any comment when shown reports that state department advices from Berlin indicated that Germany’s reply to the last American note on submarine war fare would be favorable, but it is known that Mr. Wilson has been in communication with Washington re garding the situation. After attending to pressing business the President, with Mrs. Francis B.

THE LOVE LETTER OF AN OLD SAILOR Bangor News) A Bangor woman numbers among her family treasures her father's letter to her mother, proposing marriage, written in 1S36. while his ship was off Cape Sable. This is a copy of the document, which is an entertaining and unique bit of sentimental litera ture: Sable Island. Jan. 13. ISJS. Dear H-: What is the use of your backing and filling, if you really mean to join, convoy, and sail with me to the port of Happiness. You well know the trim of my ship and you will seldom see her by the head I would not back my maintopsail for the fair est maid afloat, while I have you for a beacon. The stores I have on beard will carry us through life.- providing we should ship one or two during the passage, but you must keep a bright look-out under our lee. Should the. shoals of poverty make their appear ance, sing out in due season, that we may tack ship and never let it be known that I was wrecked on the shoals of poverty by the misconduct of my mate. You may overhaul my old log-book and see if I have not steered an honest course thus far through life and never but once caught in the bay of Misfortune, then it was owing to the run of bad luck that I was long becaimed under the guns of Fort Malice that kept up a constant fire at me. I however doubled and manned the windlass, hove the anchor of sin cerity to the bow of reason, at the same time sheeting home my three topssails of Prudence and filling them with the breath of resolution. I hap pily clawed oft. I however had the gratification of taking the latitude and longitude of that dangerous place and warn all other seamen of them that stand in for that illfated stack of hay on Point Comfort which stands just above the Port of Bliss. So, now, Dear H-, what do you say if we run down under a heavy press of can vas for the old chapman, the splicer, and let him take a splice that will not draw, until the monster Death shall cut the life lines of one of us. then we may have a fair wind and a smooth sea to waft ns to a snug berth In the main top of Heaven.

PETITIONS CITY GOVT TO BUILD NEW SPUR TRACK At the meeting of the city council held MoniViy evening a petition was received from the Lewiston, Augusta Watem die Stret Railway requesting permission to construct a spur track on Maine avenue, near the Maine Central passenger station to the west erly side to a lot north of the one now occupied by P. A. Houlehan as a ga rage. Supt. George W. Bowie of the Railway Co. was present and stated that the petition was presented so that the company may gain access to the lot where they propose to erect a freight shed. The spur is to branch out from the up-river end and will probably have a radius of 50 feet. The building is to be placed some distance back from the sidewalk or street line and the track is to be run on the out side of the building. The building it self, the platform and the track will occupy a space of about 60 feet front age. Supt. Bowie explained that the erec tion and maintainence of such a build ing would do away with the present congestion in Depot square as all freight cars and teams would transfer the freights at the shed. Among the factors, said Mr. Bowie, that render the erection of the shed almost a ne cessity is the fact that the company is now handling the up-river business of the Eastern Steamship Co. The freight office of the company would al so be maintained there but it is prob able that the waiting room will not be moved. On motion of Alderman Berry the petition was placed on file until Wednesday, July 7, pending publica tion. W. E. Maxcy and W. R. Gay were present regarding bills received from the city for the removal of brown tailed moth nests.

To Have Pretty Hair If your hair is not soft and pretty, give it daily attention, just as you would a plant to make it grow healthy and beautiful. Luxuriant hair—soft, fluffy, thick and lustrous—is really a matter of care. If it is too thin, stim ulate the hair roots and bring out the new hairs. If it is too dry and brittle, soften it up—lubricate it. To get rid of all dandruff, simply freshen up the scalp. An inexpensive tonic, called Parisian Sage, sold at all drug counters or by Bowditch-Webster Co., softens the scalp, nourishes and invigorates the hair roots, immediately removes all dandruff and makes the hair fluffy, lustrous and abundant. One applica tion will stop itching head and cleanse your hair of dust and excess oil. Par isian Sage makes the hair seem twice as abundant and beautifies it until it is soft and lustrous, and pretty hair will surely increase charm and beanty.

I Summer Suggestions For Baby’s Mother Seasonable Advice on the Health of Children in Hot Weather Xo one requires as much food in Summer as in winter. Do not over feed children during the hot weather. Serve only the lighter and more easily digested foods, and make sure the bowels keep normally active. Most of the troubles to which chil dren seem particularly susceptible in summer have their origin in a con stipated condition. The first care of the mother should be to see that the children are regular. At the first sign of a disposition to neglect this important function a mild laxative should be administered promptly. Cathartics and purgatives should never be given to children as they are harsh and violent in their action and tend to upset the entire system. The combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, sold in drug stores under the name 'of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is now very generally used to correct stomach and bowel trouble and is especially adapted for children, being pleasant to the taste, .mild and gentle in action and free •'V'-w from opiate or narcotic drugs of any description. A dose at bedtime brings relief next morning In an easy, nat ural manner, without griping or other discomfort. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold in drug stores for 50 cents a bottle. It has been on the market for a quarter of acentury and Is today the standard household remedy In count less homes throughout the country. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B.

The Lock wood Company, the Central Maine Power Company and the Waterville Sentinel all have teams in the field. The Maine Central shops is organizing one and a nine can easily be picked from the clerks which will be able to put up a good game. It is hoped to get the league going as early as next week and play a series of games last ing for a couple of months. Tha driving of the piling for the new Oilman street bridge is being rushed by Contractor Wit ham and he expects to be able to turn the bridge over to the builders of the superstructure by tbo last of this week. The piling which has been placed in position is of the very best. It is all oak, and the places are many of them 15 to 18 inches across at the bottom end and 10 to 18 at the top. They are driven down nearly 35 feet into the bed of the stream and certainly seem capable of holding a great load. The bridge Itself will be of hard pine, water* proofed and the rail will be of iron, which should make a bridge which will loot for a great many years and be safe for any kind of traffic. The old bridge lasted about 40 years and the now one should be good for at least 60 in the opinion of the men who know something about bridge building and the life of piling and lumber when properly placed.

Editor Kennebec Journal: I have read with interest and some satisfaction your editorials on the liquor traffic and I have one or two questions which are not clear in my mind and which I would like to have you answer if you can spare the space. If a shipment of liquor is taken at the office of an express com pany and is proven to be for Il legal sale, is not the express com pany guilty of illegal transporta. tion? If so, why has no prosecution taken place? If it is not too lengthy, will you please give the gist of the Webb Kenyon law? WINFIELD MARTIN. Week’s Mills, Me., June 26, 1915. The express companies are in the transportation business for its earn ings. The burden of proving the guilt or innocense of their patrons is not thrown upon them. The express companies when furnished lists of of fenders—names of parties having court record—refuse to accept ship ments of liquors to their addresses. But such parties immediately have the stuff come in the names of friends, and by what right would the express agent then refuse such package? Friends of our prohibitory law are aware of its weak spots and the diffi culty of overcoming all the dodges of a persistent traffic. We must be patient with the best we can do until further legislation, more far-reaching tn Us application to Interstate traffic, and carrying •'teeth.'’ can be secured. Prohibitory laws are constructed to reach manufacture and sale. The purchase, possession and use of liquors are not touched. Some day we shall reach a degree of common sense, moral courage, and appreciation of the rights of the many to defend themselves from the "per sonal liberty’’ of the few, to restrict the actions of people who menace com munities. A long time ago we began to restrain, with the quarantine law, those who menaced others with dis ease and did not care. We are now preventing poor victims of drug habits from buying the stuff. We have a great number of other restrictions for the protection of society—such as pro hibiting the purchase, possession, use, manufacture and sale of obscene pic tures and literature—and the day is coming when we shall not allow men to make Idiots, public charges or criminals of themselves just because they want to do so, and because the poison makers and sellers wish them to do so. But first we must shut off the ma chinery that is engaged in the damn able business of making "demand’' for booze. in suosiance, tne law ior wmcn you ask, provides: That the shipment or transportation In any manner or by any means what soever of any spiritous, vinous, malt ed. fermented, or other intoxicating liquor of any kind, including beer, ale or wine, from one State, Territory, or District of the United States, or place noncontiguous to but subject to the jurisdiction thereof, into any other State, Territory, or District of the United States, or place noncontingu ous to but subject to the jurisdiction thereof, or from any foreign country Into any State, Territory .or District of the United States, or place noncon tiguous to but subject to the jurisdic tion thereof, which said spirituous, vinous, malted, fermented, or other in toxicating liquor is intended, by any person Interested therein, directly or Indirectly, or in any manner connected with the transaction, to be received, possessed or kept, or-in any manner used, either in the original package or otherwise, in violation of any law of such State, Territory, or District of the United States, or place noncontiguous to but subject to the jurisdiction thereof, enacted in the exercise of the police powers of such State, Territory, 0 or District of the United States, or place noncontiguous to but subject to the jurisdiction thereof, is hereby pro hibited. Sec. 2. That all fermented, distilled, or other intoxicoiis'g liquor or liquids transported into dny State or Terri tory, or remaining therein for use, con sumption. sale or storage therein, shall, upon arrival within the bound aries of such State or Territory and before delivery to the consignee, be subject to the operation and effect of the laws of such state or Territory en acted in the exercise of its reserved police powers, to the same extent and in the same manner as though such liqnlds or liquors had been produced In suc^ State or Territory, and shall not;lM exempt therefrom by reason of being Introduced therein in original packages or otherwise. i ■aij i The Cost of Blunders. There is war between the executive and legislative branches of the Demo cratic administration. The Depart ment of Justice has asked the United States Supreme Court to declare null and void a statute upon which the Democratic Congress labored for more than six months to enact into law. This amaxing spectacle has its origin In tbs clause of the tariff act propos ing to give a five per cent discount on all duties imposed on merchandise im ported in vessels admitted to Ameri- I can registry, its history Is wet! known. The Court of Customs Appeals recent ly upheld the law In a dfvlded opinion. From this decision the government has appealed. A In Its brief asking the Supreme Court to review the case, the Depart ment of Justice severely criticises Congress for blundering. “The Congressional purpose of favor ing American bottoms is obstructed by treaty provision to the contrary,’' de clares the argument for a review, “and Congress was fully advised of the pur port and existence of these treaties. If no precise or Intelligible meaning can be given to the law in question, consistent with the manifest Intention of Congress, it must be held to be void and of no effect. "If the initial clause and the proviso of the section are irreconcilable," and the government so contends, “the statute is void. Better that the words used should be declared inadequate for the purpose intended than that inter pretation should usurp the function of legislation.” The Department still further em phasizes its belief that the act of Con- gresa was absurd by quoting with ap proval the Senate committee report which rejected the offending section, j “Your committee struck out the pro- j vision.” says the report as quoted by the government brief. “It was in con travention of some 19 or 20 treaties of the United States. In our opinion it could have led to no good result, as every other country could have re taliated and all the countries in the end would have been just about where they started. We were not only invit- j ing an endless retaliation, but a re taliation where our opponents would have had in nearly every case the bet ter of it, and in many cases infinitely the better." Furthermore, the Department of j Justice contends that Congress enact ed a law either “impossible of per formance or that must be postponed until treaty relations can be modified so as to permit of it,” and urges the court to declare the statute inopera- tive. The development of this division be tween the executive and legislative branches of the Democratic adminis tration merely repeats history. The party is running true to form, and re- minds one of the division In the Demo cratic party during the administration of Grover Cleveland, when he refused to sign the tariff bill which the Demo cratic Congress had enacted after months of labor. The performances of the Democratic Party should serve to call a halt to the activities of those political leaders who seem to have gone commission mad. i Every social and economic problem in their view, calls for the creation of a new bureau or department or commis sion with power to make rules and regulations for the government of the American people. Congress, the legis lative body of the Constitution, would soon become under their guidance, but an instrumentality for the creation of bureaus and commissions vested with I the real law-making power. The citi zen of today, who wishes to know what he can or can not do within the law, consults not merely the statute books, but the latest pamphlets of rules and regulations adopted by some depart ment or bureau head or commission. A little less government by bureaus and commissions and more government by law would be a good thing for the American people. The Department of Justice seems to be looking forward to a season of great activity. In addition to his incidental labors for the defense of the Riggs bank case, Attorney General Gregory is confronted with the necessity of prosecuting two important appeals. The first of these is to overthrow the decision of the customs court in the five per cent rebate case, and the other is to set aside the opinion of the lower court in favor of the steel corporation. It is somewhat significant that this second case should be ordered forward for prosecution at the very moment when the trade commission is touring the country in an effort to reassure business men of the friendly attitude of the administration. We conclude that the outgivings of the trade com mission may properly be classified as “molasses to catch flies,’’ while the action of the attorney general is a cor rect interpretation of the real inten tion of the administration. When the Democratic campaign managers drew up their set of ques tions asking local workers concerning the attitude of the people toward the policies of this administration, they were careful to make the questions so general and indefinite that the local leaders could give a favorable re sponse. The local leader has sense enough to know that unless his answer is favorable he will be in as much disfavor with the Democratic machine as is a Senator or Congressman who fails to vote according to the wtshes of the White House. If the campaign managers really wanted to get some definite and useful information, why didn’t they send out an inquiry like this: "Did the business men of your vi cinity find that business was Improved or diminished after the Democratic ad ministration came into power and up to the outbreak of the European war?* Some months ago Pittsburgh was transformed from a smoky to an al most smokeless city. Now the mills are running again and stpoke pours from the chimneys. But the American people won't forget that the shutting off of smoke was contemporaneous with the beginning of Democratic ad ministration. Not till Europe became clouded with the smoke of battle did the smoke of Pittsburgh factories again encumber the atmosphere. Maine Gossip The Vseetien Girl. Sunburned to a blister!

Turnkey Hans Smith, who has a re markably good memory for faces, Baid to him. “When were you here last?’’ and he replied. “Fifteen years ago last winter, when the police were in anoth er building, and next day they made me shovel snow from the sidewalk.” He practically admitted he has been a professional tramp for many years, and did not deny that his long ab sence from Portland was largely the j result of his unpleasant experience j with a shovel 15 years ago. The lack of a flagstaff on the cus tom house at Bath is to be remedied, after many years, according to in formation received by Postmaster Hyde, who also receives the following pleasing information from the post of fice department that the approaches to the building on FVont street will be placed ae soon as possible, with a straightening of the line, granolithic walks, new grading and pretty flower plots. The Arab Patrol of Kora Temple. Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, of Lew iston will start on the New York ex press next Saturday evening on a long pilgrimage across the continent to at tend the annual session of the Shrine at Beattie week after next. The Shrine ha# been preparing for this pilgrimage for the last four years, raising the funds to take the patrol to Seattle, it being expected that at this meting J. Putnam Stevens of Portland, a past potentate of Kora Temple, will be elected Imperial potentate of the or der. and it being the desire of Kora to have its patrol act as his escort. The party from Maine will number somewhere about 150, as there will not only be the members of the patrol, but many members of the Temple, with ladles, and some others who will take advantage of the opportunity to make the trip, who are not members of the order. They will be about a week on the road, will spend another week in Seattle, and with numerous side trips will be absent from the State about a month. Two of the most interesting old la dies in Maine are Mrs. Ursula Butter field of Molunkus Plantation and Mrs. Lucy Ann Merrill of East Winn. Mrs. Butterfield is 8.1 years old and is en gaged in the care of Mrs. Merrill, who is 90. Both are exceedingly smart, re taining their interest in public mat ters. Mrs. Merrill has to depend on others for her knowledge, as her sight is gone. Mrs. Butterfield was born Dec S, 1831, in the town of Harmony. She has one son with whom she makes her home when at Molunkus. She was married when 22 years of age. Mrs. Butterfield used to weave cloth to sell, weaving 500 yards during one fall and winter. Mrs. Merrill, whose maiden name was Lucy Ann Mallett, was born in Topsham May 2. 1825, a twin sister to George W. Mallett of that town. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Mall ett. moved with their family from Topsham to Lee when Mrs. Merrill was 8 years old, making the trip with oxen. They were among the first set tiers of Lee. Mrs. Merrill was mar ried July 5, 1846, to Levi B. Merrill of Lee, a native of Minot. There were born to them eight children. Three of these children died on the same day, Sept. 26, 1862, at the time of a diph theria epidemic. Two more died in the year of 1911, leaving at the present time only two, Veazie S. of Leomins ter, Mass., foreman of the Danforth Chemical Company, and Harris N.. of East Winn, who has been in the lum ber and manufacturing business about 24 years. A pathetic but impressive ceremony i in the recent graduating exercises of the Rockland High school was the awarding of a diploma to the late Randall Haskell, by placing it in the “vacant chair,” which in his honor oc cupied a place in the centre of the! circle. The chair was hung with a laurel wreath and in it were placed hia books used in the high school. Young Haskell would have been the class historian. He was taken ill Just! at the time his classmates left for Washington in March and died a few weeks later. He was a brilliant schol ar and a great favorite, attaining the! highest rank in the class of 34 stu dents. Recent commitments to the state prison at Thomaston have brought the number of convicts up to more than 190, which is the largest number the penitentiary has sheltered since the penitentiary has sheltered since the parole law went into effect. The pris on guards are now doing duty un der the three-shifts plan. Dr. Lionel K. Dudley tells a good story at his own expense. Shortly after he had been transferred from the harness shop to the hospital, he gave such skillful treatment to a fellow prisoner that the latter was outspoken in his gratitude. Slapping Dr. Dudley on the back, he exclaimed: "Doctor, you ought to have been here long ago.” The Aroostook prisoner .appreciated the compliment without being especial ly enthusiastic over the idea It con tained.

We herewith present you with a fishing story of a somewhat unusual nature but the truth of which cannot he doubted, because we have the stuff to prove It An Augustan is respon-, sible for the tale. Said he: I was out fishing yesterday (by the way, he has a cottage on the west shore of Cobbossee) and we went to a favorite spot where I've caught many a fish in bygone days and also about three years ago had the misfortune to lose an anchor, rope and all. Well, we fish- i ed for some time and the fish failed to bite hard enough to arouse any en- thusiasm among the other members of the party as to my selection of a fish ing ground. Looking about and taking the bearings, I remarked that I was pretty sure we were on the same grounds where fishing used to be ex tra good, in fact I was sure of it. But the fish refused to have anything to do with our bait and we decided to move. When the crew tackled the an chor he complained that it came hard and seemed awful heavy and to our astonishment, when it reached the surface there was that missing anchor, lost some three years ago. hitched on to our new anchor. The rope of course had rotted away, but the anchor was in goed condition, considering its time in the depths. We had that much luck, anyway, if the fish didn't bite." Mrs. Roosevelt, wife of Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt ar rived at Eastport Friday from Wash ington with her family and made the trip across the harbor to Campobello island. New Brunswick, where they own and occupy a handsome cottage for the summer months. Mr. Roose velt will arrive by steamer from Bos ton Saturday. July 3. and will soon Join his family across the Canadian border and will be a frequent visitor to the Border city where he is well known to most of the leading resi dents. Secretary Roosevelt will be on hand to help Eastport celebrate the glorious Fourth of July on Monday, as he has been one of the leading figures at this annual demonstration In re cent years. The Monson correspondent of the Bangor News among other interest-! ing items announces: "Dr. and Mrs. H. W. Sampson left on the early train Saturday morning.: The doctor is one of the surgeons of the National Guard of Maine and ac companied his regiment to Philadel phia for war manoeuvres. Mrs. Samp son will visit friends in Boston." Over 5<XI Knight Templars and their j ladies attended the outing of St. John’s Commandery of Bangor and their guests, Blanquefort Commandery of Ellsworth, to Kineo on Saturday and Sunday. The fine weather conditions: made this trip one of the finest out ings ever held by the Knights Temp- lar of Bangor. The Ea'.h Times has on exhibition in j its window, the largest lobster claw j probably ever seen in these parts. The claw alone measures ten and one half inches in length and some six in ches in width. It was brought into the office by the well Known diver, Scott Tibhett®, of Woolwich, who found it recently while doing some work at j Barter's Island. Some of his dredging probably the bucket apparatus separ ated this claw from the rest of the lobster. Judging from the size of the claw th«*4bbster itself must have been several feet long and a monster. The meat in the claw was of good color, and fit to eat and enough for a din- i r.er for several people. The claw alone' weighed three pounds and he estimat- ed the weight of the lobster at thirty pounds. Editorial Comment Quite as Sensible. Bath Times.) Should Thaw turn State's evidence against himself and convict himself of insanity why should he not be entitled to go free in recognition of his service to the State? This isn't really any more foolish a question than some of those asked by learned counsel. The Vindication of Time. (Bath Times) Governor Slaton will probably not have to retire to that life of obscurity which he would prefer to a brilliant career with the knowledge of what he considers a murder on his mind. There will be plenty of men in Georgia, after the excitement is over, to honor the conscientious and courageous conduct of the Governor. “The Other Side of It.” (Bangor News.) A German writing to the New York Times complains that Americans, by selling munitions to the Allies, are "depriving us of the fruits of our vic tories in France and rendering nuga tory all our gigantic efforts against Russia.” And if we stop such ex ports at Germany's request, we shall deprive the Allies of their victories on the sea and render nugatory all their gigantic efforts against Ger many.

The Trolley League opening in Au gusta, a postponement from Saturday i last, took place Monday with perfect I baseball weather, a good crowd and a 5 to 0 victory for Augusta over Gar diner. Stinson and Moore both pitched great ball, while the star feature of the game was the playing of Gilman at second. Two of his stops of hot grounders were sensational. His rec- c>rd for the game was one run, one hit, four putouts and five assists. Cobb’s running left hand catch of a high foul in the first was finely done. Mayor Blaine S. Viles at 3.3b, amid applause, pitched the first ball. "Baggy" Allen of Fairfield umpired without a glimmer i i of a protest. Festivities Begin Lively. Cobb started the batting, going out Gilman to Violette. Duncan followed the same route and McFarland fanned.

A rumor is in circulation, says the j Bangor News, that there will be legal developments before long in the case of injuries received by a farmer in this vicinity as the result of an argu ment with an officer acting in the in- i terestB of the humane society. It is i stated that the farmer resisted the seizure of his horse by the officer and that an altercation ensued in which the officer drew his club. The farmer in jumping back to avoid trouble is said to have struck his head on a nail or spike in the side of a building, re sulting in serious injuries to the skull and brain, the sight of one eye having been lost or seriously affected, while further results are looked for.

District Court Saturday on a charge of violating postal regulations. An indictment was returned against Post master Fogg at the June term of court held at Bangor, charging violation of regulations with reference to deposit ing funds of the postoffice. MARKET REPORTS NEW YORK STOCK MARKET Features of the Day’s Dealings in All the Leading Stocks New Turk, June 28.—Trading in stocks today was without especial feature ex cept for a further demand for Heading and liquidation in United States Rubber. Reading’s strength was attributed to re port that the company was to partici pate in exports c' coal to MeiiUrranena ports, presumably for Francs and Italy, j while Rubber's S-polnt declane to 48t. with partial recovery later, was again based upon doubt concerning the stabili ty of its dividend. United States Steel, ropptrs and a few of the more speculative specialties ad vanced to 1 to 1J points, the metal group holding the better part of its gain in con nection with a revival of lomeslie de mand for the refined product. Thtre were contrary movements extending from 1 to 2 points in Canadian Pacific, Union Pa cific and Southern Pacific as well as Bethlehem Steel, Westinghouse and Bald win Locomotive. In point of fact, deal ings were limited to professional traders, public interest being utterly lacking. To tal sales amounted to 267,000 shares. Among the low-priced railway stocka were Wheeling and Lake Erie common and preferred, those issues being ad versely affected by the publication of the Wabash reorganization plan. Wabash shares were almost entirely neglected, 1 while Missouri Pacific and Rock Island were inactive within extremely narrow limits. Increased weakness was shown by ex change on Paris and Rome Checks on Paris moved to 5.60 and lire* were quot ed at 6.C5, both rates establishing new records. In the late arte moon Londo i i exchange also decline! abruptly, demand bills repeating their recent low record of 4.76. The Bank of Engbind released an other $2,500,000 gold, which is designed for shipments to this market via Canada. Railroad conditions, particularly In the West, showed an increase of tonnage over the corresponding period of last year. This applied mainly to trains, miscella neous freight being smaller. London was again a moderate seller here, Canadian Pacific being offered at concessions. Rumors of further liquida tion for German interests lacked con firmation. The bond market was dull and heavy, awaiting the outcome of tomorrow’s of fering of the new $71,000,990 New Tork City issue. Total sales, par value, aggre gated $1,895,000.

June 28.—Summer people now at Popham beach are in a more or leas excited condition, as a result of activities at the government reservation there Saturday. Two light ers loaded with supplies, declared by all to have consisted largely of am munition, were discharged at the fort that day. This reservation or fort is located on the high hill back of the beach and is of the most effective concealed type. Not a sigh of it can be detected, either from land or sea. The only indi cations of a fortification to be found about the place are signs at various points which read: "1'. S. Reservation: Keep off!” These .signs.account for the place being known as the reservation, instead of the fort. At most of the places where the signs are displayed, they seem useless because the hill rises.almost perpen dicular and to climb it is practically out of the question. The lighters which brought these sup plies Saturday came into toe wharf and the munitions were loaded upon tram cars, used on the tram railroad which extends from pier to the fort, and quick ly dragged up by means of an endless cable operated from a steam winch on the lighter. To questions asked by on lookers no answer was made which in creased interest as well as excitement. The general opinion prevailing seems to be that the government is making prepa rations for war. even though it doesn't expect trouble. At this time the detail at the fort con sists of a sergeant and half a dozen pri vates. BELGIUM WHEAT AND RYE CROPS FOR CIVILIANS London, June 28, 5.30 P. M.—Herbert C.

MYSTERIOUS FIRE IN CLAY CLIFFS ON MARTHA'S VINEYARD ISLAND Oay Hear], Mass., June 2S.—The in habitants of this little settlement on Martha's Vineyard Island have been perplexed for two days by a myste rious fire burning in the heart of one of the clay cliffs from which the vil lage received its name.

Investigation showed that at different places in a tract of about 25 feet square, smoke columns were rising from the clay and the soil on the surface bore a 'yellow stain. So far as local traditions indi cate there never has been a subter ranean fire in the locality. Although the cause of the phenomenon has not been explained, a few theories have been advanced. One Is that an un discovered deposit of bituminous coal has been ignited in some inexplicable man ner.

ISLES OF BLOODED CATTLE (Associated Press Correspondence) London. June 10.—High meat prices threaten to rob the British Isles of their breeding stock. Farmers, tempted by the high prices offered in the markets, are disposing of blooded cattle. Cows and heifer calves are slaughtered in large num> hers, with the result that the produc tion of local meat will be scarce after the war and high prices kept up. The Board of Agriculture has is sued a circular condemning this dan gerous thinning out of farm stock. In^ a recent meeting the Lancashire Farmers’ Association appealed to the foresight and patriotism of members., to prevent what it termed a suicidal waste. The agitation is being carried on in other parts. Meantime meat has become so dear that the customs of the people are,., changing. Beef, the traditional, standby of Britons, has a less import ant place on the table, and more at-' tentlon is given to beans and lentils' as articles of diet.

During the thunder shower early j Sunday evening, which gave to the people of the western section of the city the novelty of sunshine, rain, thunder and lightning all at the same time, the lightning struck a big birch tree on the ling between the P. X. Savage farm and the O. P. Ellis farm on the Bangor road, and while it did not demolish the tree it left its mark. This was the third time within two years that lightning has struck in that immediate vicinity. A years ago last July a bolt struck the barn on the Savage farm and did some damage to the building, but though the bolt passed directly through some hay in the barn it did not set it on fire. The second time was last No vember, when lightning struck the barn on the Ellis farm and destroyed it. The bolt Sunday evening struck within 200 feet of the Savage home. THE Most Beautiful Watch Accurate and Durable Is the Gruen “Verithin” Harry P. Lowell Jeweler AUGUSTA tu-th-sat.tf l DOLLAR DAYS FOR AtlGUSTA JULY 8 AND 9 Augusta Merchants Promise the Two Greatest Bargain Days of the Year on the Above Mentioned Dates DOLLAR MERCHANDISE WILL BE FEATURED The Event Bound to Develop the Livliest .Competition in Value Giving Dollar Day is comne to Augusta, or to write more correctly dollar days, for there Trill be two of them—July S and 9. This announcement will be receiv ed with genuine pleasure by hundreds who know what an opportunity it brings. Lest there be some who are not familiar with the idea some explanation is due. Dollar Day first started with an individual merchant who concen trated on dollar bargans. Gradually the idea has evolved from a single mer chant to the group Snri from the group to the entire city and likewise from one day to several. Yesterday an enthusi astic number of Augusta leading bus iness men met at Hotel North and laid the plans for this city. July 8 and 9 Augusta Dollar Days On these days every merif.iant in the city will devote his particular atten tion to dollar values. The motto will be, ‘’More for your money than on any other two days in the year.” The success that has attended these spe cial value days in other cities has been extraordnary. The public has been quick to appreciate the unusual values and timely savings and Au gusta merchants, backed by the Board of Trade, will make a united effort to present the greatest values of the year. No person who is eager for ideas and suggestions on how to economize on household expenses can afford to neg lect the event. "Watch the announce ments, watch the ads., watch the stores. The profits will be yours. Mrs. David King of Vassalboro. Mrs. Nellie, wife of David King, passed away Monday noon at their home in Vassalboro, after a long ill ness, aged 34 years.

They expect to return to New England some time in August. When It comes to hitching a horse on the business street of a city it would seem to the average mortal that the last place to be chosen would be an automobile, but it is said that a visitor from the rural districts made this choice yesterday afternoon and made his team fast to an automobile in front of one of the stores on Water street. It so chanced that this car is one of the busy ones on the street, being used in connection with a hard ware store where the plumbers con nected with the store are at present busy with several outside Jobs, and the team had been hitched but a few min utes when two of the men had occa sion to use the car. Not noticing the horse and wagon attachment behind they started the car down street with the result that the old horse got the surprise of his life, and was nearly pulled off his feet and out of the har ness before the men on the car real ized what they had in tow. The own er of the car is thinking of having at tached to it the old familiar legend: "Hitch No Horses.” The barge Greenland, now loading lumber at the mill of the Augusta Lumber Co., will take from the Ken nebec river the first cargo of lumber ever shipped by this company on a barge.

The Greenland is one of 12 barges owned by the Piscataqua Navigation Co. of Portsmouth, N. H., which company also owns three tugboats and does quite an extensive business in carry ing lumber to coastwise ports. It might be said by way of explanation that the barge’s visit to Augusta is due to the fact that sailing vessels are very scarce.

Some people have reported seeing the brown-tail moths in flight during the past week but It would seem hard ly possible although the Insects are to make their appearance in about three weeks. The brown-tail lavae pupate the last of June and the moths usually make their appearance the last two weeks in July or the flrsi week in August. Last year while In dividual brown-tall moths made theii appearance in different sections of the city there was nothing of the nature of a flight such as had been the cast in years past, and with the work whict waa done in the early months of the year in Augusta In the way of de stroying the winter nests of the In sect it is believed that the number of moths next month will be the smallest yet.

Intimate Huerta Attempt Supplied j With Funds by Prominent American Interests4 Thorough Investigation Huerta’s Company Declined by Iturbide until He Made Concessions—Doubt as to How Far Huerta Intended to Go Washington, June 28.—Inside details of the plot to restore a Huerta regime In Mexico, nipped in the bud by the United States, began trickling out to day through the net of official secre cy. While General Huerta and his chief lieutenant, Pascual Orozco, are under federal detention at El Paso, other Mexicans, nearly a score of whom had a part In the plot that failed, and probably some Americans, are under surveillance by the department of jus tice. An Uncertain Trail Secretary Lansing conferred today with Assistant Attorney General War ren and it became apparent that the department of justice intends to s;ft the case to find the backers of the new revolution. Where the trail might lead in the United States is only a matter of conjecture. All officials were stead fastly silent on that feature, but it is generally believed by those in close touch with Mexican affairs, that the coup was to have the financial support of some prominent American interests. Official information was disclosed that weeks ago, Huerta in apparent seclusion at his country place on Long Island offered his services to General Iturbide, one of the exile colony in Xew York and at the same time sent an emissary to Washington to ask if he would be persona grata to this gov ernment if he took a part in Mexican affairs. Iturbide declined Huerta’s company and simultaneously Washington sent word to the former dictator that he would be persona non grata—decidedly 60. Immediately thereafter, the official advices here say, Huerta renewed his offer to Iturbide with a modified pro posal that Iturbide accept Huerta’s aid, without Huerta’s leadership, but with the co-operation of his associates. This last offer officials here and diplomat ists with Mexican interests who have been keeping themselves informed, say Iturbide accepted. In view of this information, officials are puzzled to know just how much of an active part Huerta intended to take in a mctvement on Mexican soil, al though they have no do- that at least he intended to take ch .rge of af fairs on the border. In that connection it is known that for weeks a party of prominent Mexi cans, styled by the Carranza and Vil la adherents "Huertistas” and "Cienti ficos,” have bene maintaining an ac tive junta in El Paso, in constant I communication with Huerta and other members of the exile colony in Xew! York and maintained among them- j selves the form of a provisional gov- j ernment, with a president and mem- j bers of a cabinet. Advices to Mexicans 1 here have continually indicated that the junta was planning some definite: move. PRESIDENT WILSON WITHHOLDS COMMENT Cornish, X. H., Juno 28.—President Wilson was notified today of the de tention of General Victoriano Huerta or. the Mexican border, but withheld comment on the ground that the case was being handled from Washington and that he was not thoroughly in touch with the situation. It was understood among friends of the President, however, that Huerta’s case will be handled just like that of any other person charged with con spiring to incite from the United States a revolution against a friendly country and that he will be prosecuted if suf ficient evidence is found. The President was in communication with the state department today and was kept advised of the situation. He returned to Harlakenden House, his summer home, shortly before noon after a long automobile ride and a golf game, and plunged at once into a mass of accumulated work. HOW GEN. JOFFRE PRE PARED FOR THE GREAT BATTLE OF THE MARNE (Associated Press Correspondence) Paris. June 10.—The way in which 1 General Joffre prepared for the battle of the Marne is now fully disclosed for the first time, although more than 10 months have elapsed since the French and English succeeded in that battle in checking the German advance toward Paris. The victory of the Marne remains the outstanding suc cess of the Allies’ campaign thus far, and the official orders with which General Joffre directed the movement, as they now appear in the Bulletin Des Armees, will form an important part in the history of the conflict. Hitherto that history has lacked detail as to the parts which each army was to play. In addition to the formal orders, a dramatic feature of the preparations is the text of General Joffre's appeal to the devotion of the troops, which, the Bulletin Des Armees says, was taken wrongly for a tactical order. It urged courage upon the soldiers to stand still and be shot rather than re tire an inch in face of the German ad vance. The documents now published begin with General Joffre's order of August 25, as follows: “1. The projected offensive manoeu vre not having been possible of execu tion. the subsequent operations will be regulated so as to reconstitute on our left, by the junction of the 4th and 5th armies of the English forces and new forces taken from the region of the east, a mass capable of resuming the offensive, while the other armies will resist the efforts of the enemy during the time that may be necessary. "The retiring movement is regulated so as to realize the following disposi tion of troops preparatory to the of fensive: "In the region of Amiens a new group of forces, constituted by ele ments transported by railroad (7t^i corps, 4th division of reserve and per haps another corps of the active army) grouped from the 27th of August to the 2nd of September. This group will be ready to take the offensive in the general direction of Saint-Pol—Arras or Assas—Bapaume.” The same general instructions of the 22nd August fixes the zone of march of the armies and prescribes: "The movement will be covered by the rear-guards left upon favorable ground so as to utilize all obstacles to arrest the forward march of the enemy or at least to retard him by short and violent counter- attacks in which the principal element will be the artillery.” "The object of the manoeuvre is thus with the beginning of August clearly fixed; It is to prepare not only an offensive action but an offensive which will be taken as soon as fav orable circumstances shall arrive. "From the 25th of August to the 4th of September the orders for retire ment were executed, but the rapidity of the advance of the left wing of the enemy, the time necessary for the British army to be completed and re inforced, ceijaln difficulties in our transports arriving from, the encum k brance of railroads by the evacuations from Paris necessitated the disembark ing of a part of the troops sent from the east to General Manouri more to the south than had been foreseen the 25th of August. The offensive was retarded by that fact. “On the 4th of September the recon naissances of our cavalry, those of the flying corps, cf the British, of the Maunoury army and of the military government of Paris developed the in formation that the right of the Ger man army (Von Kluck’s army) de flected its advance toward the south east (Meaux and Coulommiers) aban doning the direction, of Paris. “By' this time the original army of the French left (the 5th army) was ready to face the German columns in front, and it was prolonged toward the northwest by the British army and Maunoury’s army directed to the northeast of Paris. “The disposition sought by the in structions of August 25th for the re sumption of the offensive was then realized. The line escaped the project ed envelopment and it was their own army, that now assumed an envelop ing disposition. The wings found strong support in their contact with Paris on the left and Verdun on the right. At once the general-in-chief decided to begin the attack, and on the evening of September 4th gave the following general order:— ‘1- The question now is to profit from the situation of the first Ger man army to concentrate on it the efforts of the armies of the allies on the extreme left. Two dispositions will be taken in the day of September 5th with a view to beginning the attack on the 6th. "2. The dispositions to be realized for the 5th of September in the even ing shall be: "a All the forces available of the 6th army to the northeast of Meaux to cross the Ourcq between Lizv-sur Ourcq and May-en-Multien in the general direction of Thateau-Tierry. The elements available of the 1st corps of c&valry which are in proximity shall be placed under the orders of General Maunoury for that operation. “b The English army shall be upon the front Changis—Coulommiers fac ing the east, ready to attack in the general direction of Montmirail. “c The 5th army, closing in slight ly upon its left will establish themsel ves upon the general front of Cour tacon—Estemay—Sezanne, ready to attack in the general direction of south to north, the second corps of cavalry maintaining the Junction be tween the 5th army and the English army. “d The 9th army will cover the right of the 5th army, holding the ex its to the south from the Saint-Gond marshes and directing a part of its forces upon the plateau to the north of Sezanne. “3. The offensive shall be taken by these different armies the 6th Septem ber in the morning. (6F^:d) J. JOFPRE." “The followj (jamming orders were given to thtj, r A 3rd armies oper iting at the right of the preceding: •“4 th Army: Tomorrow morning September 6th the armies on our left will attack In front and in flank the first and second German armies. The 4th army, stopping its movement to ward the south, will face the enemy, combining its movement with that of the 3rd army, which moving to the north of Revigny takes the offensive in the direction of the west. ‘3rd Army: The 3rd army will move toward the west to attack the left flank of the enemy's forces who are marching to the west of the Ar gonne. It will combine its action to that of the 4th army which has orders to face the enemy.' "It was on the morning of September 6th Anally that the general-in-chief addressed to the armies the proclama tion that has been taken wrongly for a tactical order, but which was In reality nothing but an appeal to the devotion of the troops: 'At the moment when a battle upon which the safety of the country de pends is to be engaged it is necessary for all to recall that th* moment to look behind has passed. All efforts should be employed to attack and push back the enemy. Troops that can no longer advance should at any cost hold the ground gained and let themselves be killed on the spot rather than mire. Under the present cir cumstances no weakness can be toler ated.' CORNELL WINS ^Continued From Page One) to Syracuse by a length, while Stan ford. close in-shore, was spacing along easily in third place, less than a length behind the TenEyck shell. At this point, both Pennsylvania and Co lumbia were virtually out of the race. Entering upon the second half of the course. Stanford challenged the lead ers, each of which had a length over the following crew. Holding Stanford Cornell’s coxswain, Janes, saw the westerners coming and called for a faster stroke. Collyer hit it up to 30 and Syracuse also increased a notch so that while Stanford's speed improv ed she could gain little on her rivals. Passing under the railroad bridge marking the three-mile point, Cornell was first by three-quarters of a length over Syracuse, which in turn, was a shell length ahead of Stanford with Pennsylvania and Columbia fighting valiantly between themselves to keep out of last place. Syracuse s Attempt. Out from under the shadows of the bridge, Syracuse made its hid for vic tory. Little by little, the Orange shell crept up on the Ithaca crew, but Stan ford was not to be shaken off, and rowing stroke for stroke with the up state crews, swept down the last mile of the course. Half a mile from the fin j ish. Cornell's lead had been cut by a half length by Syracuse, but the Cali fornians were coming faster than either of their rivals and lay but a quarter length behind the Syracuse bow. At this point, all three crews were stroking from 32 to 33 to the minute, but Stanford with its extraordinary strength was getting the greater speed. The official times for each crew for the full four miles was caught as fol lows: Cornell 20:36 3-5; Stanford 20:37 4-5; Syracuse 20:43 3-5; Columbia 21:00; Pennsylvania 21:10 1-5. Another Cornell Victory The Cornell second crew set a new course record in winning the junior eight two-mile race in 10 minutes, one fifth of a second. The event, first in troduced last season, proved an easy victory for the Red and White eight, who defeated Vivian Xickalls’ star ju niors by one and a half lengths while Columbia was three-quarters of a length back of the Quakers. The times of three crews were: Cornell 10.00 1-5; Pennsylvania 10.05; Columbia 10:077 3-5. Syracuse Freshmen In the Freshman race the Syracuse youngsters went out in front and led all the way to the finish line. The times: Syracuse 9:39 3-5; Cornell 9:43; Columbia 9:47 3-5; Pennsylvania 10:01 U. S. STAND (Continued from Page One) various factions and there are hints that citizens of one of the belligerent countries of Europe are involved in the plots. The position of the United States is that he revolutionary elements in Mexico should not be augmented and the situation further complicated by the addition of new armies and bands which could hope to gain any degree of military supremacy only after pro longed fighting. At the department of justice today it was said that investigation was be ing made to learn whether Gen. An geles. Villa’s right man, had any con nection with the so-called Huerta plot and that some evidence seemed to connect him with it.

GREELY DENIES ALLEGATIONS OF BRISTOL PEOPLE Portland, Me., June 28.—Representative James W, Greely of Portland, secretary of the legislative committee on towns, has issued a statement answering and denying the allegations in a statement circulated by the residents of the old town of Bristol seeking to secure a refer endum on the act of the Legislature di viding the town and creating the town of South Bristol. This fight, which has waged bitterly through six years, was finally carried by the divisionists at the last session, and now the opponents of division are seeking a referendum on the act. The citizens' committee of Bristol in its statement of why Bristol seeks a refer endum on the act of division alleges that Bristol was divided contrary to the law and the evidence presented to the com mittee on towns; that the committee promised a second hearing, owing to a prevailing storm, and then contrary to all precedents went into executive ses sion and voted ought to pass on the pe tition for division of the town; that insult was offered to the "old and honored town of Bristol,” when only four of the 10 members of the committee were present at the second hearing. They allege that the division is unjust to the citizens of the old town, claiming that out of 140 miles of road in the entire town the new town gets only 34& miles; that out of IS schools the new town gets only four; that out of the town poor, costing from $1800 to $2400 a year, the new town gets none; that out of the 2S7 feet of bridges in the town the new town gets only 87, and that with a small proportion of ex penses the new town takes $447,000 of the taxable property, leaving the old town $447,000 poorer, with all the poor to sup port, and 200 feet of bridges and 117 miles of road to maintain. The citizens of Bristol "appeal to the v oters of the State of Maine from such an unfair division," taking ad vantage of the referendum and asking for 10,000 signatures. Representative Greely's statement answering and denying these charges, as secretary of the committee on towns, is as follows: The people of South Bristol resent the attempt to obtain signatures to a petition for a referendum by false pre tences. Every statement made in a circular issued to the voters in an ef fort to obtain signatures is unquali fiedly false. Each of the first three statements is a reflection on the hon esty of the committee on towns, the Legislature and the Governor and an insult to the gentlemen elected to rep resent the people. 1. The town was divided in accord ance with the law and the etidence presented to the committee. The com mittee listened with great patience to the evidence on both sides and voted unanimously in favor of the division. 2. The committee not only prom ised but granted a second hearing and held same which lasted from 7.30 to 12 o'clock at night. 3. The records of the hearing show that only one member of the commit I tee was absent. Xine members were present instead of four as charged. The absent member was in attendance at a meeting of another committee. 4. The evidence given showed that the town of Bristol had 90 miles of road instead of 140 as claimed; South Bristol gets six schools instead of four, as claimed; South Bristol will have its full share of the cost of maintaining the poor, the bridge at South Bristol —as was shown by the official records I at the time of the hearing—costs as much to maintain as all of the other i bridges in the town, due to, the fact that it is a swinging bridge and needs constant attendance. General:—Stated as briefly as possible, and omitting many minor details, the reasons for which the people of South Bristol asked for a division of the town were: That the size and shape of the old town make it impossible for the select men to give proper attention to all of it; that the people of South Bristol are prac tically disfranchised because they are nine miles from the town house and have no method of reaching the town meetings except by teams over roads which are generally, at the time of the town meet ings, almost impassable; that their schools, roads and sidewalks have been systematically neglected; that they do not receive, in improvements, a fair share of the taxation: that some of tneir people are unfairly taxed and that only at great intervals, and then only in the face of bitter opposition, have they been granted any share in the town govern ment. The committee on towns took exhaus tive evidence concerning these matters and voted unanimously tnat the petition ought to be granted. The Legislature adopted the bill and the governor signed it.

Knox, who has been passing two weeks wUh his family, returned to Apparent Approach of High Water Mark in Great Struggles on Many Battlefields of Teu* tonism and Slavism—Germans and Austro£$t Continue to Dominate Situation London, June 2S. 1.43 P. M—The an niversary today of the assassination at Sarayevo of Archduke Francis Ferdi nand of Austria, which turned Europe into an armed camp and most of it into a battlefield finds the struggle be tween Teutonism and Slavism tor ra cial ascendancy nearing what is thought here to be its high water mark, with the Teutonic armies for the most part still outwardly thought not without difficulty, dominating the sit uation. In Lemberg Zone The penetration of the Germanic armies eastward from Lemberg has had the inevitable result of forcing the Russians from the 30-mile front be tween Bobrka and Zurawna where they had offered such stubborn resist ance. The Muscovites, as they them selves admit, are now falling back to the Gnila river, which runs from the northward of Przemysl and through Rohalyn to Halicz where it joins the Dniest. Military writers here antici pate that this backward move will necessitate a total withdrawal from the Dniester and that the Russians will make their next real stand on tha river Bug. The Russian Situation These writers also hold that though the Russian retreat must mean a great retardation to the prospects of a Mus. covite recovery to a condition making a counter-offensive possible, it has al so robbed the Austro-Germans of th# complete victory that might have bee* theirs if they had been able to forc» the Russians to fight to a finish in stead of the latter being able to with draw their forces virtually intact. In the Western field of war ths French offensive seems less activ* than for sometime past pending con solidation of the ground already won and a clearer insight into the next move projected by the Germans. From far off Lake Victoria, Nyan za in Africa, the British war offlc* reports a fruitful British attack on the German fortified port of Bukoba, the movement being made both from land and water with the result that on June 23 the fort'was destroyed, th* wireless station put out of action, many boats sunk and guns captured and destroyed. Rumor continues busy with tpe Bal kans but those ‘•who know thrf secret of the Bulgarian ministry are await ing their own- time for divulging it. The only fact which is public property at present is that the Bulgarians ar* still receiving offers from both sides.
