DEMURRER FILED
IN CONTEST Case
And Dismisses the Petition Of
Lawrence Tanner Who Will
Not Appeal.

The certificate of nomination for
commemorative attorney of the Sixth
judicial district of Kentucky as
awarded by the state election COM
missioners to Ben ID. Ringo will
stand, and Mr. Ringo will be the Dem
ocratic nominee for that Office to be
voted for at the November election.
That was the final outcome of the
contest proceeding instituted by Law
renee p. Tanner which was filed on
Saturday, August IA, and pursuant
to the ruling of Special Judge I. II.
Thurman made in the case this morn
ing shortly after the case was called
for trial.
The attorneys for the contestee
filed demurrer to the petition upon
the grounds that the court had no
jurisdiction of the case, as there was
nothing before the corut to be con-
sidered.
II was stated that the notice of
contest was filed on August IA, 1915,
and the certificate of nomination was
not awarded Mr.. Ringo by the state
board of election commissioners I'M
til August 81, and under the law the
contest must be filed within five days
after that time, which made Au-
gust 26, the last to file the notice of
contest. AS that time was expired,
it is too late for any further pro-
ceedings in the case.
In ruling on the demurrer, Judge
Thurman based his decision on sub
section %, of section 1850 of the
general statutes which says: ANY
candidate wishing to contest the
nomination of any other candidate
when voted for at primary held I'M
der this act shall give notice in writ
ing to the person whose nomination
he intends to contest, stating the
grounds of such contest, within five
days from the time the election COM
missioners shall have awarded the
certificate of nomination to such can
didate whose nomination is contested.
Although Mr.. Tanner was granted
an appeal, he stated shortly after
court adjourned that he would sub
NIT to the ruling of Judge Thurman,
and that there would be no appeal
taken. $50 far as 1 am concerned,
the case has ended" stated Mr.. Tan
ner.
The official returns showed that
Mr.. Ringo's majority was 221.

The game between Hartford and
Livermore last Saturday was one of
the best we have had this season
from every point of view. 1t was
battle between Payne and Pirtle with
Payne getting the breaks in luck.
Pirtle allowed three safe bingles and
Welsh and Elgin were the only Out
laws who solved the delivery of the
mysterious Payne. Yes, yes it was
painful.
Tightening like double plays by
Tally and Rowan were fielding fea-
lures. The one which came in the
Outlaws half of the ninth saved
Livermore the game as our heavy
end was up and Elgin was on first
with no outs. Welsh hit a scorcher
to Tally who grabbed it on the short
bounce and fred to Rowan who zip
ped to Richard. This put Payne on
easy street and the game was over.
Pirtle mystified thirteen of the
Livermore batters and had good con-
troll of his stuff. 1t is, a shame he
had to lose.

ROME, Aug. Ain the most furious
battle of the lower Isonzo campaign,
an Austrian regiment was entrapped
and cut to pieces by italian bersagI
Iieri on the carso plateau Monday
night. The enemy fought valiantly
when they found their retreat cut of,
and but few surrendered. Four thou
sand bersagIieri, scattered among
shell wrecked trenches, ambushed the
Austrians who opened tho attack
shortly after dark. The young Aus
trian commander, believing he was op-
posed by only few hundred Italians,
advanced at the head Of his troops,
shouting demand for his foes sur
render.
The cry had scarcely left his lips
when the .bersaeliert hurled them
selves upon both Austrian fianks and
the center. Rifle fire quickly gave
way to bloody bayonet encounters as
the bersagIieri and Austrians came to
grips. In scattered groups the fight
was Waged over the rough surface Of
the plateau, the soldiers battling like
savages using their knives, fists and
even their teeth.
When the bersagIleri emerged from
the battle victorious and shouted the
battle cry Of tho house Of Savoy, the
plateau was strewn with enemy dead.

tiyes here of the country's biggest

cIuded some 1000 words, but fhe
whole thing boiled into seven, Its
critics agreed, I'VE shall continue to
apply these measures"
The communications were friendly
in tone. They were not friendly IN
quite the same fervtd form of express
sion as the notes which have come
from Germany, but they were not less
so in effect.
British Foreign Minister Sir Edward
Grey, their author, wrote as II he took
it for granted that the two countries
we're on the most cordial terms-so
much SO that apparently he did not
deem it necessary to say so in SO
many words.
His phraseology was amicably crisp
and business-like.
His idea, he said, was to convince
American Ambassador Page, with
whom, nomfnally, he was conducting
the correspondence, that the blockade
methods concerning which the United
States complained "are not only rea-
sonable and necessary in themselves,
but constitute no more than an adap-
tation Of the old principles Of block
ade to the peculiar circumstances
with which we are confronted"
The crux Of the American complaint
as Sir Edward said he understood 1t
correctly, according to international
authorities here-was that the British
were not only interfering with Ameri-
can shipments TO German ports, but
also to the ports of neutral countries
adjoining Germany.
Answering this complaint. Sir Ed
ward refuses to admit belligerent
violates any fundamental principle or
international law by applying block
ade in such way as to cut off the
enemy's commerce with foreign coun-
tries through neutral ports"

PETROGRAD, Aug. 4.-General
Won GaIlwitz's new drive southward
toward the Petrograd-Warsaw rail-
way 10 being held up by stubborn
Russian resistance along the railway
Ieadino through Vyskof. It's offhcta'-
ly admitted that the slav losses IN
tho past forty.eieht hours have been
very heavy.
A brief official bulletin Issued to-
day furnished only meagre informa.
tIon regarding the German assault
from the rorth, but never the less It
was considered very encouraging IN
military circles. Last nights official
communique reported the Germans
making progress along the Narew
river, but "oniy with enormous
losses" Today's bulletin sald:
1--WE are vaiiantly resisting tho en-
emy attacks on tho Narew line. The
Russian losses are very hsavy.'
Military men here took this to
mean that tho German advance has
been brought to halt, though with
heavy sacrifice Of lives.
Tho belief prevails hero that II the
Russian line on the Narew continues
TO hold for two more days, the main
Russian armies will have reached the
new positions assigned for them be-
yond the vlstula.
"AIthough enemy Infantry has
crossed the Narew near Schvka, VIC
prevented the artillery from cross
ina" continued the official statement.
In the meantime our own artillery an
nIhI lated several units Of the enemy
who were without the support Of
their guns.

heavy reInforcements from France In
endeavoring to advance eastwsrd be-
hind Ostroienka."
