INDIANA MINISTER Is SLAIN
Life Had Been Threatened for Pro
German Talk.

Gary, Ind, Aug. 26.-Almost the en-
tire local police force worked through
out the night to apprehend the muir
derers of Rev. Edmund Kayser pas
tor of st. James Evangelical Luth-
eran church in Tolleston. suburb.
No arrests have been made. but de-
velopments which will aid in deter
mining the cause of the assault are
expected. The attack is said to have
followed threats on the life of the
minister because of his pro-German
utterances.
Rev. Kayser's body was found in a
lot adjoining his home. He had bled
to death from a bullet wound In the
throat, but there was another bullet
wound in his shoulder, and window
cords were wrapped about his neck.
Rev Kayser, whose home is in a
community of Slav steelworkers, a
month ago appealed to Chief of Police
Heintz for permission to carry re-
volver, alleging that threats had been
made against his life.

RAPS FOES OF EFFICIENCY
Governor Hammond Of Minnesota
Speaks at Boston.

Boston, Aug. 26-Selfshness and
obstinacy defeated the efficiency and
economy bill in the 1915 legislative
session, declared Governor Hammond
to the governors assembled in con.
ference at Boston. The governor
spoke on Efficiency and Economy in
State Affairs" He discussed the plan
proposed by the Eberhart commission
of thirty" and its fate in the 1915
legislative session.
1T would seem that so salutary a
plan would receive not only the sup.
port of the citizens of the state, but
would be heartily welcomed by the
members of the legislature them
selves" he said, but there were
some obstacles.
There were, first of all. those fine
old delightful legislators who long
have been in the public service and
who look upon any change in method
as something akin to sacrilege.
Then there was the opposition of
those who believe that public Office
is nity-opportunity to help
ones self They were the patriotic
spoilsmen who could not abide a civil
service law and could not heartily sup
port any plan that had for its pur.
pose the making of a public officer
earn the salary paid him.
There were others who had rela
tives holding positions in various de
partments. They could not conscien
tiously approve a plan which might
deprive a relative of the means OF
making his living"

Did Not Lose Eleven Ships in Battle
in Riga Gulf.

Berlin, Aug. 26.-Russian claims
that the German dreadnought Moltke,
two cruisers and eight torepdo boats
were sunk in a battle in the Gulf OF
Riga were denied by the admiralty.
The admiralty stated that the Ger
man warships" reported sunk prob
ably were some old vessels sunk by
the Germans themselves to barricade
the entrance to the gulf. Some OF
these vessels had been captured from
the Russians.
Neither a large ship nor any Ger
man cruiser was sunk or damaged

London, Aug. 26-There was no
confirmation of various rumors which
excited London Tuesday, chief of
which were reports that Bulgaria had
declared war against Turkey and
would assist in the attempt to force
the Dardanelles.
German and Austrian reports state
that further advances have been
achieved both north and south of
Brest-Litovsk and that the Pulya riv-
er line has been passed. Austrian
cavalry has entered Kovel and is said
TO be advancing to the north, but the
outfianking movement from this quar-.
ter will be confronted by the barrier
formed by the River Pripet and the
adjacent marshes.
The German press points out that
the armies of the central powers face
q serious obstacle in the immense and
roadless Pripet swamps, while the
leading Hungarian newspapers de-
scribe the tactical position of the
Russians in this region as extremely
favorable

Washington, Aug. 26.-Administra,
tion officials now see hardly a chance
that the Arabic incident will cause
unfriendly relations between the Unit
ed States and Germany
The German request that nothing
be done until the kaiser can make an
official report to Washington was
looked on as completely eliminating
the danger.
If the German government has not
intended to do everything possible to
satisfy the United States 1t was felt
certain that 1t would have made no
such request as the one received by
the state department from Ambassa
dor Bernstorff.
And if Germany does everything
possible" it was stated the United
States would be satisfied-there will
be no diplomatic break. and certainly
no war The ambassadors request
was as follows:
Asks Opportunity to Explain.
so far no official information is
available concerning the sinking oi
the Arabic. The German government
trusts that the American government
will not take a definite step after
hearing only the report of one side
which. in the opinion of the imperial
government, cannot correspond with
the facts, but that a chance will be
given to Germany to submit her side
of the question.
Although the imperial government
does not doubt the good faith OF the
witnesses whose statements are re
ported by the newspapers in Europe
IL should be borne in mind that these
statements are naturally made under
excitement. which might easily pro
duce wrong impressions. If Ameri
cans should actually have lost theil
lives. this would naturally be con
trary to our intentions. The German
government would deeply regret the
fact and beg to tender sincerest sym
pathies to the American government.
