Seattle.

Seattle-Chickens are bane on the
market, while fresh butter and fresh
local eggs are comparatively scarce.
This is not unusual at this season of

paying good prices.

butter and fresh local eggs are at a

is standing at Csc for Washington

Shipping of Crops to Be
Subject of Conference

Washington, D. C.-Confronted with
the problem of disposing OF the coun-
try's enormous grain and cotton crops,
the administration made plans for
conference in Washington next week
of representatives of the leading ship
ping interests and foreign exchange
bankers.
The bankers have been asked to
come to Washington to formulate plans
for a resumption of the international
exchange market and restore the use
or international bills of exchange.
In announcing the conference call
Secretary McAdoo said:
''It is of vital Importance to the
country that two things be done as
quickly as possible; first, provide ships
to move our grain and cotton crops to
European markets; the second, restore
through the bankers the market for
foreign bills of exchange.
'Grain is a very pressing problem
at the moment, because the crops have
been largely harvested and the move
ment is already well under way. The
cotton movement is not so advanced
and will not be for a few weeks. 1t is
my purpose to invite a conference on
the subject of cotton to be held at an
early date, of which announcement will
be made later. These are important
questions for the American people and
every possible effort will be made by
the administration to cooperate in the
movement of these crops.
The senate again failed to pass the
amendment to the Panama canal act
admitting to American register for
eign-built ships less than five years
old. Some opposition developed, Sen
ators Simmons and Williams, Demo
Gratis, attacking the plan as dangerous
and inadequate to meet the situation.
Senator Newlands introduced ar
amendment to the bill, renewing ar
effort made several years ago, which
would authorize the government tt
provide for construction in private OF
government yards of 80 vessels to be
used as auxiliary ships to the navy
mail lines as might hereafter be pro
vided. The proposed ships will be MOI
to exceed in aggregate cost $50, 900,
900, not more than six ships to be
built in any one year, Sc, 900, 900 to b.

Great Enthusiasm Is
Awakened in All France

Paris-The invasion of Lower Al
SAGE by French army under the COM
mand of General Joseph Joffre, the
French commander in chief, has
awakened great enthusiasm throughout
France.
French military authorities, while
recogizing that the occupation of Alt
kirch and Mulhausen by the French
troops is of high strategic Importance,
believe that the successful advance of
the French army far across the Ger
man frontier will have considerable
moral effect.
1t is also unofficially reported that
holman, to the north, has fallen into
the hands of the French.
None of these three places was
strongly fortified, and all of them lie
outside the line of real German de-
tense, being regarded as ouptosts of
the strongly fortified cities.
The German garrisons were numer-
ically fairly strong, but it was under
stood that in case of attack they would
merely endeavor to hinder the French
advance before falling back on their
supports.
Neu Breisach, where they are said
to have retired, lies to the east OF
holman, and is strongly fortified,
while Strassburg, some distance to the
north, is the center of a great aggre.
cation of German troops, is strongly
fortified, and supposed to be prepared
for long siege.
Official reports of the fighting be
tween the French and German troops
state that the French losses were mo
excessive" while those of the Ger
mans are declared by the French tt
have been very serious"
The Parma herald. (Parma, Idaho) 1903-1917, 1914-08-13

Confirmation of the reports that
Liege had been taken by the Germans
apparently was given by dispatches re-
ceived from Berlin, although advices
coming from Belgian, French and Brit
ish sources maintained that the forts
there still were in the hands of King
Albert's men.
1t was asserted in these dispatches
that, although the city was invested,
there has been no serious occupation
of the town by the Germans.
An official dispatch issued by the
Belgian general staff said the advanced
German troops were being pushed back
and that the German offensive move
ment had ceased.
A junction of Belgian, British and
French troops in Belgium is reported
to have been effected, and clash be-
tween German and French cavalry
south of Namur is said to have taken
place.
Athens dispatches say large Turkish
forces are being concentrated on Bull
garian territory by agreement with
bulgaria.
Emperor William is reported to have
left for the Alsatian frontier to join
the German general staff.
The British admiralty announces
that German submarines attacked a
British cruiser squadron, but that the
British ships escaped unchanged,
while one German submarine was
sunk.
France has requested the Austrian
ambassador to explain Austria's in
tentions in an alleged movement across
Germany to the French frontier.
Cholera is said to have broken Out
among the Austrian and Serviar
troops.
A cablegram from Toxic says serious
conversations are proceeding between
the Toxic and London government
concerning whether Japan will taxi
part in an attack on the German col
ony of Using Tau.
The French and Belgian government
have directed that the resources of tn
two countries shall be the common
property of France and Belgium.

Antipari Damage Heapu.

Brai, Italy - After the Austrian
cruisers had bombarded Antivari,
Montenegro, damaging the wireless
station and the electrical works, they
directed their fire to the adjacent hills,
in which many Montenegrins from the
town had sought refuge. These refu-
gees returned the fire, whereupon the
cruisers redoubled their attack upon
the town and its suburbs, destroying
many houses. One cruiser then en-
tered the port and resuming the bonn
bardment, destroyed the maritime
station and storehouses.
