library of laws, embracing every
statute on the books of every state
in the Union, and to be replenished
annually with the multitudinous en-
-actments of the forty-six legislatures,
fresh from the hands of the makers,
will spring into being as the result
of the annual conference of govern
ors beginning here Tuesday, if the
present program of Secretary William
George Jordan meets with the sue
cess which he believes it will.
''This is not a mere theory" Mr..
Jordan declared. 1T is an actual,
clearly defined, systematized and
practical method which has been
working on small scale for the past
eight months. With a perfected or
ganization, SUFFICIENT funds contribu-
ted by all the states, and headQuar-
tiers and library, it will contain every
state report, document and law, and
will be the one place in the country
where every important activity OF
every state will be almost automati-
cally registered in the secretary's Of
flee, and good law or any good idea
in one state will be brought to the
attention of all the others"

acted or pending, during the year.
This is but one item, however, In

question OF uniform divorce laws may
also be brought before the gathering

A half day will also be devoted te
discussion of the rights of the state

SMALL MARGIN FOR VETS
IN MAINE STATE ELECTION

Portland, Me-, Sept. 12.-Unoffi-
cial and only partly revised returns
from 49S out of 521 cities. towns
and plantations in Maine today gave
a majority of 904 for repeal Of the
prohibitory constitutional amend
ment. The missing twenty-five
towns cast less than 385 votes at
the state election three years ago.
State Dry Since 1857
Since 1857 Maine has had stat
ute prohibiting the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors and since 1884 prohibi-
ton has been a part OF the consti-
tuition. In 1884 the question of plac-
ing prohibition in the constitution
was put before the people and pro-
hibition won by majority of 45,948,
carrying every county in the state.
Following this, the attacks of the
anti-prohibitionists ceased for
time, only to be renewed in later
years.
The Democratic party last year
made the question of resubmission
of the constitutional amendment q
plank in its platform. The Dero-
Gratis swept the state in the election,
and the legislature, aided by some
Republicans, voted to put the ques-
ton before the people.
Must Be Resubmitted
The apparent decision of the vot-
ers on the face of the returns to-
night to take prohibition out of the
constitution does not mean that IL
quor can lawfully be sold. The leg
islature must act before the present
statutory law. adopted in 1857. can
be repealed, and the question must
again go before the people.
Whether Gov. Frederick w. Plais-
ted will call a special session of the
legislature for the purpose is not
definitely known. but among promi-
nent Democrats it is reported that
the governor will take such step.

HARTMAN RI4ACks1IITHs TO !
STRIKE UNLESS RECOGNIzEI


San Francisco, Sept. 1o.-Unless
julius Kruttschnitt, of the Hartman
lines, recedes from his absolute re-
fusal to recognize the federation of
shop workers or. its comittees on
those lines, he will be confronted
with 4 strike. No reason for believ-
Ing that he will recede has been found
by labor leaders here.
General advisory committees of
the five international shop craft
unions have just concluded three
days conference with the interna-
tional officers OF those unions.
The general officers were entrusted
with full charge. Of the situation,
henceforth, and International Presi-
dent J. w. Kline of the Blacksmiths
and Helpers union, said that the
general officers had made up their
mind what they would do.
"Mr. Kruttschnitt will have to
make CONCESSIONS said Mr.. Kline,
''or the public for which he has ex-
pressed no great regard. probably
will suffer because he does not"
Fair warning, Mr.. Kline said, will
be given to the Hartman officials in
case strike is called.

Chicago. Sept. 1.-THE strike

ployes, was finally averted today and

national Association of Machinists
met at Davenport, Ia, and positively
refused to authorize q strike on the
ground that the system federation
had not conducted It's negotiations
properly, and this left the federation
without the necessary support for .

Washington, Jan. 2.--Japanese mill
tary authorities are as intimately fa-
miliar with our defenses i'm the Phil
ippines as Is the United States war
department itself
This situation was admitted today
by high regular army officer. i'm cor
Filipino officials. Ignacio Villamor
and Ponciano Reyes. who have just
arrived in Washington.
"When Dewey sailed into Manila
bay in 1898, the japanese even then
Knew more about the fortifcations of
the harbor than the Americans" said
this army officer. "They have never
since that time let their information
grow stale, but have kept accurate
date on all works instituted by the
United States in the islands"
Villamor confirmed the recent Unit
ed Press dispatches from Manila re-
garding the japanese activities in the
islands and said:
Last September, we arrested two
japanese spys I'm Manila. They had
in their possession maps of the Phil
ippines and the city of Manila and
It's harbor and fortihcations. This
arrest was known at Washington, but
IS there is no law authorizing The
errest of civilians suspected of spy
ing, they were released. There Is NJ
doubt now that the japanese are fa-
millar with every detail of the forti-
llcations in the harbor of Manila and
at Corregidor.
Several months ago nearly all the
tationery stores in Manila obtained

o'clock while delivering beer at the
home of John II. Marble over the
