Won TIRP|Tz MEETS
WITH Won JAC0W ON
REPLY TO AMERICA
BERLIN, June 26 (via Amsterdam

BERLIN, June 26 (via Amsterdam)
Admiral Won Tirpitz. director of
Germany's submarine warfare, was
called into conference today by For
eign Secretary Won Jagow on the re-
ply to the American note. The con-
ference lasted two hours and later the
admiral visited Chancellor Won Beth
mann.Hollweg.
The fact that the admiral went .di-
rect from the foreign office to that of
the chancellor led to rumors that the
naval head and Herr Won Jagow were
at odds over the tenor Of the reply to
the American protests. The admiral Is
said to oppose making any concession,
while the foreign secretary, it Is re-
liably reported, advocates certain mod
ifications in the submarine campaign
which will prove satisfactory to the
United States.
The chancellor is understood to
share Won Jagows views at this time,
but events are being watched with in
terest to learn whether he will alter
his position in view of an appeal from
the Admiral.

'The story which appears in this
ISSUE" said Mr.. Brock. lis entirely
misleading and erroneous in many
statements. The editor has failed to
investigate, to ascertain the facts. Yet
she claims to champion the cause OF
women. 1t is tough shedding for laun-
dry girls when she gets a. wage of Sc
week, with family to support. Some
of them must clothe and feed them
selves besides providing for others on
that salary. At the very least, they
deserve a consideration of their case.
The cost of laundry here to pa.
irons is triple that in the larger cities.
Collars should be washed and ironed
for liz cents each, shirts should not
be more than 10 cents each.
There is big profit in it for the
managers, even if they charge the min

the Richmond Union laundry aud 9TH
er laundries in this city, too, are charg-
ing more than reasonable price, and
paying their help no more than is paid
in other cities.
The public should investigate and
demand a re-adjustment. with fair

but to patrons"

Hollander Slowly Recovering
From Pneumonia Overjoy-
ed Today When Sweet
heart is Brought to Room.
SEPARATED TWO YEARS
Expert Florist Pines for
Company Of His Girl and
Employers Bring Her to
America.

John Sterling, aged "a, a Hollander,
is slowly recovering from a severe at
tack of pneumonia at Reid hospital.
For the past week he has been telling
the nurses that if his sweetheart, An.
ma Eimerins of The Hague, Holland,
could be with him he was sure her
blue eyes would do him more good
than all the medicine in the world.
What would you give If your
sweetheart could step into your room
now?' one of the nurses inquired Of
Sterling today.
Il would give anything in the world
I own or ever hope to own" he re-
Piled
We'll you owe a great debt" the
nurse replied "She will be with you
in about five minutes, and you must
hurry up and get dressed SO you Will
be able to receive her. She has come
all the way across the ocean by her
self to see you and her train is due to
arrive In Richmond right now"
Two Lovers Meet.
So overjoyed was the young HOllan-
der over what his nurse had told him
that he had much difficulty in re-
straining his emotions. Five minutes
later the two lovers were locked in
each others arms, their first meeting
in two years. Sterling is an expert
florist and has been employed by a
floral company at Falmouth, Ind. His
employees arranged for Miss Eimerins
to come to this country to see him.
Miss Eimerins speaks fairly good
English and is a very pretty young
woman. She said that she arranged
to come to her sweetheart as soon as
she was notified of his illness. The
nurses at the hospital have known for
over a week that she was coming and
it has been a difficult thing for them
to keep from sharing the secret with
Sterling.
Visits Her Brother.
Miss Eimerins sailed three weeks
ago on a Dutch steamer which went
through the perilous mine fields OF
the English channel, which is also in
tested with German submarines, with
out mishap. On arriving in New York
she went to Washington to visit a
brother, who is employed in the treas
ury department and from there came
to Richmond.
The young woman, who appears
very small by the side of her very tall
lover, says, with many bushes, that
she does not know exactly when the
wedding will occur but hints that it
will be postponed until Sterling is
able to leave the hospital, which will
not be for several weeks. The hospital
nurses are taking as much interest in
the romance as if it we're their own
and Miss Eimerins is already as
much a pet with them as big John
Sterling.

Indiana Day is Celebrated at
Panama Exposition With
Chief Executive Deliver
ing Principal Address.
PRAISES FAIRBANKS
Moral Qualities of State
Backbone of Progress
Making Steady Advance of
HOOsier Commonwealth.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, June 90
Indfana's long list Of achievements and
the excellence of her present standing
among the states OF the nation were
told by Governor Samuel M. Ralston
of the Hoosier state in an address here
today in celebration of Indiana Day
at the Panama-Pacific exposition.
Beginning with Indiana's natural re-
sources and her pioneers, Governor
Ralston described the various steps in
her progress, bringing the narrative
down to the present day at the close
of his address when he said:
"Just now, Indiana is most solicitous
Of universal peace. All her moral
strength is backed by President Will
son in his tireless efforts to heal the
bleeding wounds of civilization and re.
establish the golden rule and the open
door between the nations Of the earth.
Indiana would love her neighbors as
herself and she would find her neigh
bors wherever she can serve in pro-
noting civic righteousness among
men"
Lauds Fairbanks.
The governor let politics slip when
in the same breath he paid tribute to
Vice President Thomas r. Marshall
and Charles W. Fairbanks, former vice
president. Speaking Of Indiana's able
men he said:
Indianians take pride in the fact
that the present vice president OF the
United States, the scholarly and brill
liant Thomas r. Marshall. is native
born Hoosier, and that one of Indiana S
commissioners to this exposition. the
well.poised and conservative Charles
w. Fairbanks. occupied that office not
long before him" e.
Indiana's greatness Is based on
moral qualities. according to the gov
ernor. They have not thought only
of their natural advantages and ma.
terial progress" he said Back in
Indiana we have learned that material
progress is safe progress SO long as
wealth does it's part in suppressing
vice, eradicating disease and maintain
ing and enlightened democracy, prop
erly safeguarded by law and order.
Lawlessness, vice, disease and ignor-
ance unbridled," he said. do not exist
where society is sound and democracy
sane"

England Expresses Intention
to Persist in Maintenance
of Blockade and Prize
Court Order.
FIRM REPLY NEEDED
State Department Takes up
Task of Framing Rejoin-
der to Unsatisfactory
Memorandum.

WASHINGTON, June 26-A renew
al Of the protest against Great Brit
aims interference with neutral COM
merce on the high seas, following the
governments unsatisfactory memo
randum on the subject sent to Wash
ington this week, was the important
task ahead of the state department.
The British statement as to the in
tention of that government regarding
the maintenance of it's blockade and
it's adherence to the Objectionable or
der in council is regarded by officials
here as entirely out of harmony with
the Administrations announced prin-
ciples. England's argument that she
is not violating international law In
OBTAINING neutral cargoes, and that ev-
cry facility possible is being accorded
the movement Of American shipping is
not regarded by this government as
meeting the issue raised.
Vigorous Reply Needed.
Containing a virtual declaration by
Great Britain that her blockade Is to
be rigidly maintained and that the
prize court rather than diplomacy must
seek the status Of suspected cargoes.
the British government calls for a
vigorous reply from this government.
This rejoinder still is in course Of
preparation at the state department
1t is learned that additional facts re-
garding the seizure and detention of
American cargoes by the British fleet
are to be gathered in order to make
the second protest as strong and COM
prehensive as possible.
The administration, confronted with
increasing protests by American ship
pers. is understood to appreciate that
the issues between the United States
and Great Britain as now drawn, are
of greatest consequence.

Miss Gertrude Barnum, after a
years work with the Federal Commits
sion on Industrial Relations, is back
in New York ready to organize the
huge strike of $4,000 garment workers
which now seems imminent. Miss
Barnum is one of the chief organizers
in the various garment workers union,
and in the past several years has en-
gineered some serious strikes. in every
case the unions being successful. In
terviewed regarding the threatened
strike she said that the manufacturers
themselves were to blame for the con.
ditions which brought about a desire
for the strike on the part of the work
ers She said:
The present attitude of the Manu-
facturers' Progressive Association is
due absolutely to the irresponsible
leadership OF that organization. Had
responsible men remained at the head
of the organization there would be no
need for a strike
She charges that the manufacturers
are not living up to a protocol signed
some five years ago.
