Champagne, in the Vosges and north
of Arras, while at The same time min
mining the value Of the results oo-
tanned. In these articles he plainly
intimated that change in the general
staff was desired, that younger gen.
erals were required to make the nee
essary effort, and that by reason Of
the apathy of the sanitary department
Paris was threatened with CHOLERA.
Most of the papers containing these
articles were seized by the police and
the effect upon the public was neglig-
ible. At the same time, no secret was
made in parliamentary circles of the
desire of the radicals and socialists
to get rid of Millerand and Joffre. The
chances of different candidates to sue
coed them were even discussed, the
name mentioned most often for min
lister of war being that of Paul Dou-
mer, former president of the chamber
of deputies, while General Sarrail, al
ready candidate for the chief COM
mand of the army before the war, was
put forward for Joffre's place.
This campaign had no press sup

The different group: of the LETT met
separately and discussed the form of
resolution, amounting practically to
an Interpolation to the government
on this question, with the unexpected
result that the radical party, in which
the proposition originated, was shown
to be far from united in its opposition
to the government. The result was
that instead of the demand for the

SHIP OWNERS
MAKE PROTEST
(BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.)

CHRISTIANIA, Norway, Sept. 3.
Norwegian ship-owners complain
bitterly against the practice of Eng
lish warships in forcing Norwegian
vessels bound for Norway to put back
to a British port. In many cases
these Norwegian ships have been out
side Of the war zone, and, on their
being forced to return to British
ports they have been the victims of
German submarines Had the ves-
els been left alone by the British
ships they would have reached their
home port safely.
Protests from Norway to England
have been met by the answer that the
British government will hold itself
responsible for Norwegian shipping
that is treated in this manner, but the
Norwegian owners continue to see
their ships destroyed.
The question has become especially
acute since the Norwegian American
line steamer Trondhjemsfjord was
torpedoed by German submarine
July 81. An English cruiser had
stopped the steamer, put a prize crew
on board and directed the vessels
course to Kirkwall, when the torpedo
ing occurred. The Norwegian press
complaining against the British adj
miralty assert that the steamer was
loaded in New York under the super
vision of three inspectors from the
British consulate who sealed the
ships matches, and among the ships
papers was an affidavit from the con-
sulate to the effect that the ship had
no other cargo than what the papers
showed. Aside from this, the Nor
wegian government had guaranteed
that possible contraband would not
be reshipped from Norway to any Of
the belligerent countries. Notwith-
standing this the ship was seized,
prize flag hoisted and the unlawful
prize was directed toward Kirkwall.
The chief of the German submarine
torpedoed the steamer because it was
bought from England last December
and therefore, according to his in
struction considered to be an English
ship.
The loss of the Trondhjemsfjord
amounts to several million dollars,
only partly covered by insurance.
There was no contraband on board ac-
cording to German rules. The cargo
consisted of $4,000 bushels of grain,
pork and tobacco.
The loss Of Norwegian ships since
the war broke out year ago amounts
to about $1O,O0O,O00 of which only
four million was covered by insurance
the rest falls on the ship owners.
The majority of the ships have been
torpedoed by German submarines,
several without warning.

OFFICERS ELECT
TO Be NARROWED
(BY ASSOCIATED PRESS>

-IHE HAGUE, Netherlands, Sept.
3.-Twenty-seven Belgian, French,
and English officers still elect to re-
main prisoners on the Island of Urk,
in the Zuyder Zee, rather than prom
Use that they will not try to escape
from Holland and return to their COL
ors to fight. If they were willing to
give their promise not to try to es-
cape they would be allowed to roam
anywhere in Holland, but the q on
the Island of Urk prefer to ramain
prisoners, openly avowing their in
tention to escape if possible. This
makes the situation something of a
game between the prisoners and their
Dutch guards.
The Island of Urk is itself sort
Of geographical joke, for it is little
more than small sandbank that was
left high and dry when the sea
drowned the central part of The
Netherlands and formed the Zuyder
Zee. Some 1900 people, however,
now live on this little stretch of
land, which the average pedestrian
may cross in ten minutes. The is
landers are extremely clannish and
stick to the dress of 200 years ago.
They amuse themselves by fishing for
herring and anchovies and in building
dykes against the terrors of the North
Sea in winter. The presence Of the
informed officers is regarded as sort
Of sporting affair even among the
Dutch guards. The commander des-
cribes the situation by saying, eve

try to escape and return to their coun-
try to go on with the fight. Only it
is our duty to keep them here"
Next to Commander Nyssens of the
Belgian army who was pulled across
the Dutch frontier by his own men
after he was rendered unconscious by
seven bullet wounds, the most popu-
lar prisoner is an Irish major of the
British flying corps who actually
made his escape. from the island by
swimming some three hours and who
would have succeeded in his flight but
for the small mishap which landed
his boat in a village which was under
martial law.
Since this attempt, however, the is
land is more strongly guarded than
before. The foreign officers are not
allowed to speak with the people from
the village. All foreign and Dutch
yachts are carefully watched. A tor
pedo boat stationed in the little har-
Dor is kept ready to pursue all future
swimmers, and guards have been
placed on the tower of the church to
survey the whole island.

ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. 14.-Governo~
Harris is back at the capitol and has
announced that he will call the extra
session for November LIST, instead Of
December LIST, as it was originally
supposed
While the governor has made no
statement of what he will include, he
is said to have intimated that there
wouldbe other matters besides the ap.
preparations bill, and wise political
heads here think it is pretty safe be-;
that prohibition will be among the list
Governor Harris says that he will
issue the call on September 9th, and
what will be included will probably
not be known with absolute certainty
until the call is actually issued.
That the session will be at least thir-
ty days long and possibly longer is
said to be extremely likely
