Additional Clubs

There were many members of the Woman's club in attendance at the annual child welfare conference of the Congress of Mothers which met Thursday. The subject is one of vital interest to the club and though child welfare has no special place il: it's departments, it has received the closest attention of the organiza- ten. In fact it will be recalled that the Woman's club initiated the movement here ten years ago upon the suggestion of Mrs. B. A. Fowler. who was president at that time. Mrs. Fowler was an intimate friend Of Mrs. Theodore w Birney of Wash ington, D. C.. who was perhaps more prominent in child welfare at one time than anyone in the country. and at her request Mrs Fowler brought the matter before the club. From the child study circles started

NINE LAYING CHARGE
DENIED BY GERMANS

Berlin. Nov. 15.-Germany's answer
TO the charges made by the British
government regarding the methods en-
ployed by Germany in laying mines in
the North Sea is printed in the "Nord-
deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung." The
article asserts that the eight agree
ments of the second peace conference
az The Hague, which were among the
conventions signed on October is, 1907,
10 which the British government re-
fers in its note 70 the neutral powers,
never have been fully ratified. Never
theless, Germany announces that she
will act in accordance with the terms
of these agreements.
The British charge that Germany
violated provisions regarding the lay
ing of mines ia categorically denied IN
the article. Germany never used fish
ing boats or vessels flying neutral flags
in laying mines; all were laid by war
vessels. Neither has Germany laid
mines in the high seas. All have been
laid as near 10 English harbor en-
frances as the coast lines and charac-
ter of the bottom permitted: all have
been carefully anchored and neutral
powers have been duly informed.
II is untrue, continues the paper,
that Germany has barred neutral ports
by laying mines. II some of the Ger
man mines laid on the English coast
have drifted to sea through heavy
storms, these are much less numerous
than the English mines which have
been driven on the Dutch and Belgian
coasts, where they have inflicted dam
age.

SHIPLOAD OF DYES
In FROM GERMANY
Textile Industry Assured of
Supplies, Despite Mines in
North Sea.

Dyestuffs from Germany TO the value
of more than 81 100000 came IN yes
terday on the American steamship Ma
tanzas. The Matanzas received its cargo
at Rotterdam, where it had been sent
by rail from Germany. The shipment
is expected to have a heartening effect
upon the textile industry.
The Matanzas, which is owned by the
New York and Porto Rico Line, sailed
from New York October 7 under char
ter of a committee headed by Herman
A. Metz and Adolph Kruttrof. Assur-
ances had been given by Great Britain
that the boat would not be molested.
A British pilot took the ship through
the mine field in the English Channel
and North Sea.
German dyes have been coming into
New York in neutral bottoms for sew
eral weeks, but in an unsystematlc
sort Of way, which kept manufacturers
anxious as TO the future.
The possibilities of the situation
were regarded as so serious that the
national organization of chemists APP
pointed committee 20 look into the
matter of manufacturing dyestutfs and
chemicals in this country. For few
weeks after war was declared the sup
ply was so scarce that some mills
closed their doors.

ABUSES WIFE; IS SLAIN
Woman Returning Home Dis
covers Husband Murdered.

Returning from the home of her
parents Yesterday morning Mrs. Sew
erence found the body of her hus-
band, John Patrick Severence, forty
years old, an automobile painter, on
the floor of their home, at 209 East
nth ST., with a stab wound over the
heart. She had been away during the
night because of a quarrel.
DR.. McFeeley, of Flower Hospital,
found the wound three and a half
inches deep and said he believed 1t
had caused instant death.
To Assistant District Attorney /. s.
Breckenridge Mrs. Severence said she,
her husband and another man, friend,
were drinking beer in the rooms early
Saturday night, but the friend had
left about $3.50 o'clock. She said the
visitor had a key 10 the house and fire.
auently helped her do her marketing.
She and her husband had quarrelled,
the woman stated because he was out
of work He became abusive and she
went out about Il o'clock.
Coroner Healy believes the man was
murdered. Severence, he thinks, was
wounded at the door and fell as he
staggered toward the window to call
for help. The bed in the room had not
been occupied.
Conrad Hammel and his wife, who
conduct the rooming house, were ques-
toned by the Coroner and Mr.. Breck-
onridge Mrs Hammel said Mrs. Sew
erence had told her that the visitor
was her cousin. lie came and went as
he pleased, she said, sometimes when
the husband was there and sometimes
when he was not.

NEWS FOR SWISS
DYED In GERMANY
PropagandistS Busy and
Versatile, Declares a
French Observer.
BY NINE. JEAN ALCDE PICARD.

Lausanne, Nov. German agencies
and newspapers are very busy in Swift
zerland spreading false news and try
ing TO create sympathy in favor OF
Germany. All possible means have
been used 20 this end. Circulars, ap-
peals, private letters, newspapers lit
orally flood the country.
Under false names some Swiss pa
pers have been bought, and they have
published what is called truth For
example; Louvain has not been de
stroyed, but only slightly bomharded
as a punishment for the populations
bad behavior when the armies of the
Kaiser entered the city peacefully.
Rheims? Why. the French themselves
have wrought the ruin Of their cathe-
dral. These papers were often violent
and suppressed by government order,
but reappeared some days later under
other titles. as in the case Of the IA
nous "Depeehe Suisse" which is now
published under the name of "Nou-
Swiss people are told that the French
had attacked their border and that the
Intervention Of Germany saved their
country from invasion.
An information bureau has been
created in Stuttgart for the special
purpose Of enhghtening neutral coun-
tries. According to Its reports, a
treaty existed before the war between
Belgium, France and England, which
allowed the two great powers 10 rush
their armies through the neutral coun-
try into Germany. Germany's only
means to defeat this plan was, OF
course, 10 send her troops by the
same road first.
Swiss citizens, universities and art
schools have received from a commit
tee Of German doctors and professors
an explanation of the acts Of vandal q
ism which have Mortified the world.
Even the destruction OF Louvaln and
Rheims under the pens Of these illus
trious men becomes eXcusable
But all this, far from meeting the
desired results. succeeds in provoking
great indignation in all classes, espe-
cially in the French part OF Swltzer-
land, where sympathies are distinctly
and strongly in favor Of France
Just as laundering are the attempts
Of several German business firms, debt
ors of Swiss banks, who have advised
their creditors that the accounts due
have been converted into government
bonds. The German debtors have tried
10 ptISudOe lNtll IpbA IL AltlNof NAN
Swiss. that they should be glad that
a good investment had been made for
them. which enabled them 20 aid a
good cause.
So provoked is the Swiss population
that in many places it has been neces-
sary to post advices 10 remember that
in a neutral country there must be no
public manifestations in favor Of any
belligerent nation.
A protest against German destruc-
ton of works of art has been signed
by most Swiss artists. among the sig
natures being that of Ferdinand Hod-
Ter, the painter, whose reputation was
made in Germany. Efforts have been
made 10 induce Holder TO take back his
protest with an apologize word. Fail
ing in this, the University Of Jena has
decided to take down from its walls his
famous painting.

TURKEY FURNISHES
BIG PUZZLE OF WAR
Even State Papers Conflict
as to Reason of Her
Action.

London, Nov. 6.-When The diplo-
matte history of the war comes TO be
completed one Of the most interesting
chapters probably will be concerned
with the causes which this week finally
led to the commencement of hostilities
with Turkey. When, If ever, state pa
pers giving the diplomatic correspond
ence and communication of Turkey,
Russia, Great Britain and Germany in
the period preceding the entry of Tur-
key into the fray are published they
will be found to contain dispatches so
much at variance with one another that
the unravellng Of the tangled skein
will be a most difficult endeavor.
Put briefly, Turkey blames Russia
for forcing war upon her, while Russia
and England hold Germany responsible
for forcing Turkey into such a posi-
tion as made war inevitable. II will
be of interest 20 examine the Turkish
version. which was obtained from a
thoroughly qualified official before
Tewfk Pacha and his staff left London
last Thursday morning. IL was ad-
mitted by this official that the British
government had done everything in its
power to stave off nostilities, and even
TO discover a method whereby they
might be brought to an end after the
bombardment of Odessa.
England" said representative Of
the Ottoman government, "did what
she could, but her influence was re-
stricted by the fact that she is bound
hand and foot to the Russian policy.
England did not want war with US,
but Russia did"
Then followed the Turkish version
Of the incidents which formed the
actual beginning Of hostilities Ac-
cOrding to this, the first shots fired IN
the Black Sea were fired not by Turk
ish but by Russian ships.
"An attack" said my informant,
"was made upon vessels flying the
Ottoman flag by a Russian squadron.
What could our ships do but reply? ?
They did reply, and speedily put their
assailants to flight Where we made
a mistake was in pursuing our adyan-
tlgc and bombarding Odessa and Sc
bastopOl. That was an error, griev-
Gus error. Had we been content to
rcpel the attack upon us by Russian
ships all the rights Of the case would
have been incontrovertibly on our side.
BY bombarding Russian territory we
weakened our case
II is to be noted that the ottoman
diplomatist in the foregoing eXplana-
tion rcfrained from giving specific de-
tails. either of the Turkish vessels at
tackled or of the Russian squadron at
tacking them or Of the place of the
encounter. He was. however, emphatic
in his assertion that the attack had
been begun by the Russians.
Upon This point interesting light is
thrown by Petrograd dispatches, which
have suggested that the reports cur
rent in Constantinople to the effect
that the Russians had attacked Turk
ish ships Of war had possibly resulted
from bogus reports OF such an attack
furnished by the German officers COM
manding the Goeben and Breslau.
This will be an interesting point for
the historical student of the future to
unravel.
Germany. it is said here, had been
seeking to force Turkeys hand IN every
possible way, and a fabricated report
of Russian aggression is not thought
beyond the bounds Of possibility.
