 Thousands of men of the Hamburg American line went on strike 40 hours before the fire. Their places were filled by men from the Brooklyn docks and the strikers were told that they would not be taken back. Of fcers of the line said, however, that they believed the fire was in no way connected with the strike. Somebody S carelessness, they thought, was to blame.
 The Imperator has suffered several nishaps, more or less serious. since her launching May 23, 1912 Her maiden trip was postponed from aground while on her way to Ham burg and then because ofitrouble with her turbines. A benzine explosion on the vessel April 24 caused the death of two men and serious injuries to six others.
 Seaman Stumpf, thought to be dead when he was found, was revived at a hospital. He is severely injured.
 Officials of the line estimated that the damage to the vessel itself would not be great. Great quantities of sup plies were made useless, however, by the flames smoke and water. Nearly 2,00o,0 900 gallons of water were pour ed on the fire. The company an nounced that the ship would sail as scheduled.

 Permit me, MT. Confidential Agent, not to reply for the time being to the significant offer in which the govern ment of the United States of America inSinuateS that it will commend to American bankers the immediate ex- tension of a loan which will permit us, among other things, to cover the in numerable urgent expenses required by the progressive pacifcation of the country; for in fthe terms in which it is couched it appears more to be an attractive antecedent proposal to the end that, moved by petty interest, we should renounce a people which incor- trovertibIy uphoIds us at a period when the dignity of the nation is at stake
 q believe that there are not loans enough to induce those charged by the law to maintain that dignity to permit it to be lessened.
 ''In view of this, MT. Confidential Agent today more than ever we pro- foundIy hope for an immediate solu- tion of the conflict which unfortunate further. I would renounce on our part the demand that our representa- tive mbassadors be received inme- diately since for the end in view the present personnel of our reciprocal embassies is sufficient if it remains as it has been heretofore until the cleo tions of October have taken place; but I will always stand on the un- avoidable condition which declares that we are in reality the ad interim constitutional government of the Mex ican republic.''.
 The note ends with expressions Of personal esteem.

Registration Days.

Young men arriving at the age of
manhood before election day, men
who for one reason or another are
not registered, persons who have
removed from one district to an
other, or who have removed from
the county to another, will have
two opportunities of getting regis
tered this year, the first one being
next Tuesday, Sept. 80, and the
second is the following Tuesday,
Oct. Z.
In order to vote at the general
election this fall, it is necessary
that persons above described get
registered. The wisest and safest
plan is to do so on the first day;
the matter is then attended to and
over, and illness, accidents and 9th
er such things will be no bar to
ones exercising the rights and privi-
leges of franchise, which should be
dear to every American citizen.
The third day, Tuesday, Oct. Ia,
is for revision purposes only, and
no voter can get registered on this
day.
