JUDGE GALLOWAY
MAKES Is CITIZENS

Among the casualties of the Germans
not reported in the regular war news
were nine loyal subjects of the kaiser
who swore allegiance to the stars and
stripes and declared their intcntion to
stay in the United States and let the
war rage with the rest of t1e Germans
who stayed at home. In all Is new
Americans were made this morning by
Judge Galloway. Henry b. Hazard,
special federal naturalization agent, was
on hand this morning and examined the
applicants for their final papers. All
who were present were admitted.
Mr.. Hazard said that all of the ap-
plicants this morning appeared above
the average of intelligence and knowl-
edge of the American form of govern.
ment. 1t was a good lot of aliens who
sought admission to the full rights of
citizenship and he said he felt conf
dent that they would all prove to be a
credit to this country.
Satisfied Where He Is.
When the first employees of the coun-
ty clerk office appeared yesterday
morning to unlock the door they found
waiting for them young German who
was more than anxious to take out his
first papers and file his declaration of
intention He said that his neighbors
were being ordered to join their regi-
ments to asst in the great European
war and that he would rather be a live
American citizen than dead hero.
Another Salem resident who was for
mer subject of the kaiser was notified
by telegram from the German consul
n eSattle yesterday to appear at that
city to entrain for New York to be
shipped back to Germany to fight with
his regiment. He took out his papers
several years ago, but when he and his
wife went back to eGrmany last year
he was seized and compelled to serve
in the RAINY for eight days before the
original papers taken out mere could
be forwarded to him in Germany When
the papers from the county clerk 5 Of.
flee arrived he was released, but yes-
terlay's telegram caused considerable
anxiety on his part until he found that
he was near citizen Of United States
end that he owed his allegiance to thi:
country.

Ready to Fight World

Berlin, Aug. 4.-That Germany was
prepared to fight the world in defense
of its honor was the announcement
made by the kaiser here today. He
blamed France and Russia for the pres.
ent struggle.
France, the kaiser alleged, planned
to strike through Belgium, thereby
forcing Germany to act. He said he
urged the Belgian king to fake con.
cessiOns but failed.

practically without a break, as far
northwest as Longy.
At Longy the French troops were
still engaging the Germans. A fierce
clash was reported there between
French and German aviators.
Confirmation was received of reports
that Belgium had rejected Germany's
ultimatum, which required the former
country to acquiesce, as Germany's
friend, in the passage of the kaiser s
troops through its territory, on their
way to invade France Failing to do
this, Belgium was warned it would be
treated as a German enemy.
The Nlng of jelgium was in personal
command Of his own forces.
The army having been completely
modified, he had under him about
$4,000 men. The Belgians had, of
course, no idea that they could do
more than delay matters until they re-
ceived French and British aid.
The Germans were reported to have
invaded Belgium in large numbers at

London, Aug. 4.-Following the for

Asquith told the house of commons of
the German action. The kaiser, he said,
informed Belgium that, inasmuch as it
refused to facilitate the movement of

The moment the premier -lnished
speaking there was chorus of de-

Englanl take steps to protect Belgium's
national integrity.
In response to queries from members
the house concerning reports that
England had served an ultimatum on
the kaiser demanding the withdrawal
of his troops from Belgium and Luxen-

that he would do so. This, however

Freddie will spring his little kicker by
insisting that Mcfarland make 1S5

fight will be off.
Packey Can't Make Weight.
Mcfarland never again can make $50
pounds unless he remains in a Turkish
bath parlor for two years and goes
without eating for a year and half.
Packey is well over the 40 mark He
might be able to slip down to 40, but
no farther And that will be Welsh's
excuse for calling off the match.

Freddie Welsh is known as the light
weight champion of the world, but
Welsh right now hasn't any more NOR

Welsh was OutpOinted in two nights
since he came to America, but referees,
because of the New York and WiscOn-
sin state laws, were not allowed TO
give decisions and Welsh, although
beaten, retained the title.
Young Shugrue met Welsh in New
York a few weeks ago and gave MIN u

way The young Jersey scrapper bored
through Welsh's guard time and again
and landed on him almost at VIII.
Welsh, on the other hand, had hard
job finding an opening, and when ne
did land his blows lacked steam.
Careful Not to Risk Title.
Welsh has picked up close to $4,000
for about six fights since he came 10

shy so many players. Of the seven on
the team Clarence Richards was about

he took the ball the full length of the
field, upsetting almost the entire Alta
Vista team on the way When he got
the ball to the goal three or four boys
attempted to stop him. but he thrust
them aside and forced the ball through
almost by main strength
With another Richards on the team
Bailey would not have needed more
than five. Alta Vista scored both goals
late in the second half ". MOsley

the other. With a competent goal keep

be stated that Buster Biggs threw the
ball for the basket just as the whistle
sounded. The ball went perfectly true
and had the whistle blown one second
later the score would have been tied.

the fact that Sag played guard during
