WOMEN
CENTRE FIGHT ON
MISS AMERICAN
Jersey Delegates Prominent in
Row Over Ousting of
Secretary.
speclaI to the EvenIng star.

Special to the Evening Star.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 3.-Stormy
fails to describe the scenes of the
convention of the National Council
of Jewish Women here today. Eff
forts to change the constitution to
make way for the removal of Miss
Sadie American, of Jersey City, as
secretary were the cause.
Insurgents from Philadelphia, other
eastern cities and the West assert
that a secretary can be hired at a
smaller salary than Miss American
gets. The question of whether the
constitution will be changed prob
ably will not go to a vote until late
this afternoon.
Mrs. Nathan Weinberg, of Newark,
and Miss Rose Brewer, of Orange,
are taking an active part in the
meeting. They refused to say today
whether they would support Miss
American. The Jersey delegates have
been feted and entertained by local
Jewish organizations.
In yesterdays session, the dele
gates discussed probable changes in
the constitution, but none of them
would give out word for publica-
ton. They said Mrs. Miriam X. Ar
mold, of Philadelphia, chairman of
the committee, would make recon-
mendations.
The council today decided to spread
the cause of religion throughout the
United States, and to bring the fam
lily circle closer together in every
home which members of the society
could reach. Nathan Berkowitz,
only man delegate, is bravely hold
ing his own with the women in their
debates.
Mrs. Arnold, Mrs. Max Margolis
and Mrs. Mayer Gotz are the Phila-
delphians here. The other Pennsyl-
vanians present are Mrs. Nathaniel
Harris, of Bradford; Mrs. Charles e.
Friend, Mrs. S. Sunstein, Miss Lisa
Blum, Mrs. B. NJ Rustander, of
Pittsburgh; Mrs. Max Galland, of
Wilkesbarre; Mrs. r. Lowentritt,

1000 War Prisoners
Attempt to Escape
from Lancaster Camp
BY the Associated Press.

LANCASTER, via London, Dec. 3.
An attempt to escape. made last
night by a thousand prisoners in the
concentration camp here, was thwart-
ed by the guards who charged the
mob with fixed bayonets, wounding
several.
The reserves were summoned, and
when they reached the scene they
found a thousand prisoners advanc-
ing, armed with bricks, sticks and
stones. The reserves fixed bayonets,
charged at the double-quick and soon
subdued the mutineers. The ring
leaders were arrested and placed in
solitary confinement. Only one man
was seriously injured in the melee.

NO SUPPLIES FOR
GERMAN CRUISERS
FROM WILMINGTON

According to yesterdays New York
Herald. Norwegian and Danish steam
ships have been leaving Wilmington
and Philadelphia loaded with coal, oil,
water and provisions for the German
cruisers Karlsruhe and Dresden,
which are supposed to be lying off the
Atlantic coast. A sugar planter of
the island of St. Thomas, of the Dan
ish West Indies, is said to have given
out the information in New York. The
planter said that vessels leaving here
were under contract to find the two
German warships and to transfer
cargoes to them. In case they could
not be located, the ships were to
make way to st. Thomas, where the
cargoes would be turned over to the
German Consul there.
When officials of the local customs
house were interviewed on the subject
this morning they laughed at the
story. According to their records not
a Norwegian nor a Danish vessel has
left this port for several years. About
a year ago a Norwegian vessel put il
at the Harlan and Hollingsworth Cor
poration for repairs, but when it lef
il cleared for a coast city
