DANGER IN DIVIDED
CITIZENSHIP SEEN
BY 0. c. Willard
Gernan Americans Criticised
for Adding Fuel to Flames
of Bitterness

STOCKBRIDGE, Mass, Sept. A
Oswald Garrison Willard, publisher of
the New York Evening Post, in an
address before the Laurel Hill Asso-
ciation here today, declared that the
movement among American citizens
of foreign, especially German, descent
to form bodies apart from the citizen
shin presented a far-reaching dones-
+ic issue which the American people
must conquer as tney nave conqueleo
other great evils,
Mr. Willard said that an important
factor in the continuance of the
"American melting pot" lay in edu-
eating immigrants to the proper
duties of citizenship. He asserted
that in most instances heretofore
naturalization examinations had been
a farce. and that the award of what
ought to be the most highly priced
of diplomas had occurred, in New
York at least, in dim, dingy rooms
under circumstances not as dlgnlneu
as attend the registering of a letter."
Foreigners becoming American citi-
zens should be made to understand.
Mr.. Willard said, that there can be
no divided citizenship or loyalty or
allegiance under the American flag;
that no one can accept political obli-
cations here while at heart loyal to
another social system, another entity
or another code of laws.
In opening his address Mr.. Willard
o,1oted from an address made by Carl
Schurz at the celebration of the lat
ter's SEVENTEEN birthday, sixteen
Years ago, in which Mr.. Schurz said
that no matter how warm the affec-
tions German Americans had held for
their native land they had never per-

Us. TOACCEPT
GERMAN POLICY
ON SUBMARINES
Will Not Insist on Warnings to
Merchant Vessels, Is Wash
ington Belief.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 4.-The Unit
ed States seems likely today to ac-
eept as fully satisfying its demands
for modification of Germany's sub
marine warfare, that passenger liners
alone and not belligerent merchant
ships be given warnings by subma-
rlnes. The British contention that
the United States should insist on
similar treatment for merchat ships
probably will be rejected.
This was stated on excellent au-
thority as the administration latest
tentative decision as to its future po-
sition. 1t involved a sudden change
of opinion, inasmuch as the SUPPOSE
/ tion Friday was that America would
insist on the same treatment of pas
senger carrying and freight vessels.
The reconsideration was understood
to be based on expert representations
that submarine commanders would
have much more difficulty in identify
ing merchant ships as compared with
passenger liners, which probably
would give rise to future dispute IL
the United States insisted on putting
both in the same class.
Officials were advised that Ger
many's formal note on the Adriatie
case will be dispatched from Berlin
early next week. Ambassador Gerard
has cabled however, that so far as
he is aware, the report from the Ger
man submarine commander who sank
the Arabic has not yet been received.
The Berlin foreign office is said to
! take the position that the report Is
unnecessary, If the facts are that the
Arabic was not warned-that in such
case the commander undoubtedly dis
I obeyed orders and Germany's respon-
sibility for reparation follows auto
matically.
Although Berlin reports said Am
| bassador Bernstorff has been clothed
with wide discretion to settle the
submarine controversy, the impress
sion in official asd diplomatic circles
was that the exchange of severa
more notes between Washington ant
Berlin must follow before the entir
matter is adjusted.

THREE NEWARK
MEN IN AUTO
HIT BY TRAIN
Two Victims of Keyport Acct
dent Unconscious at Long
Branch Hospital.

An automobile truck carrying fur
niture from the Hahne-Stagg Com
pany store at Broad street and Cen
tral avenue was struck by a Central
railroad passenger train at keyport
today The machine was smashed and
three occupants were injured.
The victims were Alvin Schooley,
sixteen years Of age, of 4V Washing
ton street, and August Gilman,
twenty-four years of age.
Skillman was only slightly bruised.
The other two were taken TO the Me-
mortal Hospital at Long Branch,
where it was said that both were in
a serious condition. At o'clock this
afternoon neither had recovered con-
sciousness despite the efforts of the
medical staff.
De Camp was in charge of the truck
when it left here at s o'clock this
morning for Allenhurst. He hired Gill
man as his helper to deliver the furni-
ture. The automobile truck was
owned by Job De Camp, Inc, of 81
William street. The furniture of the
truck was valued at $780,
Young Schooley was taken on the
trip by De Camp to keep the latter
company. Schooley is a pupil at the
Central High School and last night
told his mother he would like to make
the trip with De Camp She granted
him permission to go, but not until
after considerable persuasion.
Nearing Keyport the truck was
forced to make detour because of
several roads that were being re-
paired. The truck swung around to
street which crossed the Central
railroad about 100 yards south of the
station. De Camp failed to notice that
northbound train, due at Keyport
at 8 o'clock, was coming. The en-
gine struck the truck and the ma
chine upset throwing the occupants
to the roadway and scattering the
furniture.
The train was stopped Immediately
while the crew did all they could to
help Schooley and De Camp until
the arrival of physicians. Later an
ambulance was summoned from Long
Branch took the two to the hospital.
The train was delayed about a hall
hour.
S. ID. Parsons, head shipping clerk
at the Hahne- -Stagg Co. corner of
Broad street and Central avenue,
stated that his firm hired De Camp
to take a consignment of furniture
to Red Bank, Long BfRnch, Allen
hurst. He i'm turn engaged the De
Camp, Inc. auto truck. Mr.. Parsons
stated that De Camp was always
considered a careful driver by the
Hahne-Stagg Company and it was
for that reason he was given con-
siderable of their firms work.
At the Schooley home Mrs. Schooley
had already been notified of the ac-
cident. she was in a hysterical con
dition and had to be taken care of
iby neighbors.

NEGROES DENY
THEY CONFESSED
MOHR MURDER
Trio Repudiate Police State
ment That Mrs. Mohr In
stigated Crime.
EVIDENCE AGAINST WOMAN
is WEAK, OFFICIALS ADMIT
Police Seek Two Men Alleged
to Have Overheard SIayers'
Conversation.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Sept. IA
denial that they had confessed to
the murder Of DR.. c. Franklin Mohr
was made to the Associated Press to-
day by George W Healis, Henry
Spellman and c. Victor Brown, the
negroes who, according to the police
authorities, had previously declared
that they killed the physician at the
instigation of Mrs. Mohr
The Representatives of the prosecu-
tion and defense in the case bent
their energies today in seeking to
strengthen their respective sides. The
officials of the town of Darlington
and the county of Bristol, in
whose jurisdiction DIR. Mohr was
shot, admitted today that so far
their case against the woman was
a weak one. They pointed out
that something more than the con-
fessions of the negroes was neces-
sary for a conviction, for confessions
tending to incriminase other persons
have no standing in the courts of
Rhode Island.
Darlington police officers were
searching for two men, who, it was
understood, mad overheard conVer-
sation between two motorcyclists on
the night of the shooting. Two of
the negroes under arrest are alleged
by the police to have admitted riding
to the scene of the crime on motor
cycles.
Arthur Gushing, attorney for Mrs.
Mohr, continued his quest for a will
of the doctor, previous searches hav-
ing failed to produce anything, ex-
cept a document which, Mr.. Gushing
states, could not be probated. 1t is
understood that in this document DR..
fMohr sought to deprive his wife of
all interest in his estate.
Charles NJ. Mohr. of New York, one
of two children of DIR. Mohr by a for
mer marriage, said he did not think
there would be any disagreement in
the Mohr family over tie disposition
of his fathers estate, in the absence
of a will. He said that he and his
stepmother had virtually agreed upor
a division of the property, which h'
/ estimated to be worth 100000. HI

RAYMOND VETO
ON ALMSHOUSE
AWARD UPHELD
Further Delay as Result of Fur
niture Contract Being Above
the Appropriation.

In session featured by tits that
lasted until long after midnight, the
| Common Council last night Sustained
Mayor Raymond's veto on the awards
of the furniture contract of the new
almshouse at Ivy Hill to the NJ. J.
| O'Connor's Sons Company. The may
or sent thirty-three vetoes to the
council. These had to be acted upon
separately.
In his message, the mayor said that
he withheld his signature because the
poor and aims committee gave out
contracts over and above the appro-
priation. AS this would be illegal, he
! claimed, he vetoed the entire award
! This will cause another delay of about
a month before the almshouse in
| mates can be transferred from the
Elizabeth avenue institution to the
new building that has been idle fol
a year.
The specifications have been re-
vised to meet the appropriation, and
it is believed that a special meeting
will be held within the next two
weeks, at which the O'Connor firm
will be given the bulk of the work,
after the revised specifications are
| acted upon by the committee and
recommended to the Board of Alder
! men.
Smoke Convention.
In his first veto the mayor called
attention to the appropriation to be
| given the local delegates to attend
the smoke-prevention convention in
Cincinnati this month The amount
was $3.50. The mayor again cried
economy and asked that it be cut.
Mark Phillips, chairman of the
finance committee, asked that the ap-
preparation stand as originally stated.
! He declared that it was the intention
to bring the convention to Newark
| in 1916, at the time of Newark's cele-
bration, and that at least $4,000
would be left in Newark by the dele
gates IL the convention was brought
here.
Alderman Thomas j. Lee, jr., chair
man of the committee that was to
make the trip, said he would resign
from the committee, but pleaded to
| allow the money to remain at $3.50.
