GERMAN ATTACHE INVOLVED
Passport Fraud Points to High Diplo-
matte Officer In Washington.

Washington, Jan. 5.-The name OF
an attache of the German embassy
here is involved in reports made to
Attorney Ger eral Gregory by agents OF
the department of justice who have
been investigating the alleged plot to
obtain American passports for Ger
man reservists.
The department Of justice will take
no action in regard to this disclosure
other than to communicate its in
formation to the state department
which already has been done State
department officials as a result of this
report from the department of justice
are confronted with the unpleasant
necessity of deciding whether steps
shall be taken to bring about the with
drawal from Washington OF the Ge>-
man attache in question.
The situation is regarded officially
as one of considerable diplomatic i'm
portance and very embarrassing for
this government to handle.
An authoritative denial was made
of q published statement that thirty
more arrests are TO be expected in the
passports case. 1t was learned tibet
the investigation by the department;
practically is complete and that with
the arrest already made the attemp--
ed fraud is regarded as having bee
completely frustrated.

FORCE SENT TO SONORA
Villa Starts to Make Good Promise
to Drive Out Carranzaists.

Ell Paso, Tex, Jan. 5.-The army
that General Villa has been promising
for months to send 70 Sonora TO wine
out the Carranzaists has begun to ma
terialiZe. A considerable Villa army
is said to be in the vicinity of Casas
Grandes, southwest of Juarez. moving
westward and the Juarez garrison is
being reinforced against a possible
Carranza movement against this Dor
der town.
Villas declaration is that he is send
ing the troops to Sonora to cooperate
with those Of Governor Maytorena to
wipe out the Carranza garrisons in
that state, but in some quarters it i
believed Villa wished to be prepared
for eventualities in the event of Unit
ed States guns being turned loose into
Mexico al Naco.
General Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff
of the American army. is still at Naco
negotiating with the two Mexican com
manders, Hill and Naytorena. May
torena remains out of reach of the
American guns, but continues to hold
his men in such position that Hill can
not evacuate Naco as General Scott
suggested and move to Aqua Prieta
without engagements. MaytOrena con-
tends that he cannot allow Hill to
move without orders from either Pro-
visional President Gutierrez or Gen
eral Villa.

EAST Ohio MINES
MAY Be NONUNION
Owners Favor Breaking or Re-
!atiOls With Organization
"OPEA SHOP" POLICY likely

At Today's Session Of Operators In
cleveland Decision of Vital Interest
to Workers In Big Coal Territory
Will Sc Made-Union Officials and
Mine Owners Unable to Agree on
Scale After Repeated Conferences.
Cleveland, Jan. "a meeting #
eastern Ohio coal operators will be held
today and the session will be watched
with keen interest by miners in the
coal territory.
1t was learned from an authoritative
source that at the meeting today the
question whether the mines shall be
operated with union labor or whether
an open shop" policy will prevail
would be decided. 1t will also be de.
cided about the eviction of striking
miners who have paid no rent since
last April l.
An unannounced development in con-
nection with the meeting of the oper-
ators was joint conference with VIII
liam Green, international secretary of
the mine workers organization, and
John Moore, president of the Ohio
miners organization. These two
miners officials first met all the
operators and then held a conference
with the seven operators who COM
posed the operators representatives,
which resulted in failure to agree on
a wage scale
After this conference it was said n
agreement was reached. Both the op-
orators and miners officials remained
firm in their previous demands.
Mr.. Green. who was an Ohio state
senator and the author of the Green
anti-screen law, said he told the oper-
ators that our honor is at stake be-
cause when the miners signed a scale
with other districts now operating in
central and southern Ohio we told the
operators that we would not sign
lower scale with the eastern Ohio OPP
orators
There are $4,000 miners working in
central and southern Ohio on the At
cents ton anti-screen basis, Mr..
Green said. The eastern Ohio oper-
ators offer 44.61 cents a ton. This was
rejected by $4,000 miners in eastern
Ohio the first of last April and they
have since been on strike.

MAY POSTPONE PAGEANT
Gold Hill In Movement and Canal Is
Likely to Be Blocked.


Likely to Be Blocked.
Washington, Jan. accessibility of
a postponement of the cruise of the
international feet from Hampton
Roads to San Francisco through the
Panama canal in connection with the
opening of the canal and the exposi-
ton was suggested in the course Of
conference between Secretary Garri-
son and Colonel Cocktails, governor of
the canal.
Though the great earth slides at Gu
curacha have apparently been con-
quered according to Colonel Goethale'
report, the earth movements cOntinI
in the neighborhOod OF Gold hill. AT
that point the superintendent masses
of earth on the side of the canal by
their great pressure are cOntinuousl,
forcing rock and soil in great quaint
ties in the canal prism. The move
ment is sufficiently extensive to re-
quire the continuous employment OF
dredges to maintain the channel.
While this can be done to meet the
needs of the present number and size
of vessels that are applying for pas
sage Colonel Goethals reported th9t
he could not guarantee that there
would be channel broad enough and
deep enough for the great dread
naughts which will make up the naval
parade by the date they expected to
arrive at Cristobal next spring.

WON'T FIGHT MANDATE
Thaw's Next Struggle Will Be In New
York State Courts,

Concord, n. H., Jan. 5.-Accordirg
to an authority which has been close
to Thaw personally, there will be ID
further legal fight made in this state.
1t is understood that Thaw's legal
advisers have informed him that any
further legal action that could be
brought here must eventually prove of
no avail and would only result in an
unnecessary delay in the fight it is
proposed to make in New York state
This, according to this authority, is
Thaw's present state of mind and I'M
less there Is a radical change, which
is improbable, he will return to New
York without questioning the mandate
of the supreme court.

BUSY AT HARRISBURG
Pennsylvania State Legislature Begins
Its 1915 Sessions.


Harrisburg, Pa, Jan. 5.-The 1915
general assembly met in opening ses-
sion today.
The voluntary withdrawal of his
four Republican opponents left the
speakership field clear for Charles A.
Amber of Montgomery county
Charles H. Kline of Pittsburgh was
chosen president pro TEN of the SEN
ate.
The selection of Amber for speaker,
it is believed, will prevent the naming
of A. c. Stein as chairman of the law
and order committee. Governor Brun-
baugh, it is argued, will insist upoa
Amber appointing a committee in
favor of local option bill.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS

Chicago News.)
 Artificial beauty isn't even skin deep.
 The more praise a man bestows upon himself the wiser he isn't.
 But when a girl suffers a young man to kiss her she doesn't suffer much.
 When a man makes a fool of him salf he deprives some woman of her prerogative.
 Probably the most foolish thing man ever does is to propose to a woman. It's ten to one that she'll be foolish enough to accept him.
 If a girl doesn't put up a struggle the first time a man attempts to kiss her, he feels as resentful as he would if his partner had trumped his ace.
