HOW DEAD SOLDIERS AnE NOTIFIED BY DIFFERENT
 NATIONS AT WAR

Every nation has It's own particular method of identifying It's dead in war time. Each English soldier has a small oblong card (known officially as Army Form B. 2O67i which is stitched Inside the tunic. On 1t are entered particulars of the mans name and regiment, next of kin, etc. Besides thls. every article of the mans cloth ing Is stamped with number which corresponds to one written opposite his name in the regimental records, as well as the county depot of his bat tallon.
 This method Is a little more elabo- ute than that of Germany, whose sol Hers carry metal disk bearing & number which corresponds with a number at the Berlin war office. After bHttle numbers, not names, are tele- graphed and verified.
 The Japanese system Is very similar. Each man has three disks-one around bis neck. another on his waist belt and third In his boot--on each of which are three numbers corresponding to the wearer's name, corps and brigade respectively. while the Russian soldiers

CORDOVAhS VIEWS LIN
 SEATTLE's UNEMPLOYED
Cordova, Alaska, Jan. 4, 1915.

Cordova, Alaska, Jan. 4, 1915. Editor Daily Times:
 Concerning your recent comment with regard to the ingratitude of the T Won't Workers" in not accepting work in return for board and keep-a a few words.
 You are of the opinion that such action will discourage some charity workers. It is to be sincerely hoped that it will discourage all, including those who work the workers in such a way as to make charity-workers. professional workers.
 Being somewhat imbued with the scientific spirit which virtually pre- cludes all blame for what one is, was, or about to be; have nothing against charityworkers. They are, as good as the best and no better than the worst, and large number at least are well meaning. It is not their acts of giving aims, but the reaction that fol- lows-the working up to others for sustenance parasitism - pauperism that is so pernicious. Pauperism in- creases faster than wealth and popu- lation, and I think the majority of your readers will agree with me when say free" America is no soil for the roots of such an institution, and should therefore be destroyed.
 Of the course the step taken by Seattle's unemployed will produce a wave of unfriendly criticism, especial ly in the ranks of snug complacency, but everybody should know. including editors, that the demands made are not unjust. They have in the face of hunger refused to work for less than union wages, which everybody will agre (empldyers excepted) are ab- solutely necessary to uphold the none too high standards of living.
 Of course 1t works hardship on res. aurant men but they should not be surprised that such raids will most likely becomes general.
 They should have recourse to the courts for damages against the state for not providing labor the means to buy back in the form of wages at least, the average fifth of what it pro duces.
 With five millions idle, the situa tion is critical. Drastic measures are .equired to cope with 1t.
 If a government, for the sake of all the people in times of war-in the interest of war, can take away from individuals the chance to make a pro it; why can not this government ir times of peace, for peace-for the good of all the people, do the same thing? This England did. Why not come out editorially. R. E. HEGNER.

Kaiser Fires First Shot

The Kaiser constant movement from one point to another on the front is now accounted for by the German tradition that the chief war lord shall fire the first shot from each of the new heavy guns. Whenever a new IT inch howitzer is mounted the kaiser proceeds to the spot and hurls the first shell by touching a button from a posi- tion some distance behind the line.

LAST WORKS IF
 CLIFF JEWELLERS
 ARE EXCAVATED
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPArcH1

DENVER, Sept. 16.-Ruins of what are believed to have been the last works of the cliff dwellers were rec ently excavated at Mesa Verde Ma tional park in southwestern Colorado, according to word brought to Denver by Enos Mills, the Colorado author and naturalist, who has been inspecting the excavations. The ruins are distinctly different from those previously uncOv cred in western Amrica and open the way for new efforts to solve the mys- tery of the early races on this continent
 The excavation work has been done by government agents under the su pervision of pr. J. w. F'ewkes of the Smithsonian institute. Government scientists uncovered a building of cut and polished stone. The structure was in the form of the letter D with the upright 130 feet long and the curved part 250 feet in circumference. The walls were about seven feet thick and hollow with rooms inside. pr. FeWkes believes the ruin was an uncompleted fortress, abandoned when the cliff dwellers disappeared from the Rocky Mountain region.

Confiscation of American Cargoes Upheld on Ap- peal - Chicago Packers Will Lose Approximately
 $15,000,000 on Products.
SAY FIGHT IS
 NOT YET OVER
Attorneys Say Confiscation of Cargoes Is Not Justi- fled by Facts or Any Principle of International Law and Custom.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-If the confis- cation of American meat cargOes ord cred in London today is upheld on ap- peal from the British prize court, Chi cago packers will lose approximately S15, ,00G,000 al which the shipments are valued. The packers have not given up the fight. Attorney Henry Veeder, C.. J. Faulkner, Jr. and M w. Borders, representing swift and Company, Ar mour and Company and Morris and Company, gave the following joint statement concerning the decision Of the British prize court:
 "England's confiscation of American meat products as announced is not justified by facts or any principle of international law. It can only be con- strued as another step in England's s policy to interfere with the trade of American citizens with the citizens of neutral countries. The shipments were destined to neutral countries and the ships papers, at the time of seizure, clearly showed such a fact. They were not destined to or for enemies of Great Britain and, upon the trial of the case no evidence showing they were des- tined to such enemy was adduced rms makes IL necessary TOT lfe IuT- ther presentation of stronger protests to the department of state for equitable adjustment of the claims"
 The statement says:
 There are a number of sother ship ments Of packing house products val ued at S12,0OO0 900 held up in England which have never been brought to the prize court
 Henry Veeder, counsel. said the con- tentions of the packers would be pushed as far as possible.
 We probably will appeal" he said.
 Just what action it will take to ob- tain further assistance from Washing ton has not been stated at present. The packers must first confer"
 Guy C. Shepard, vice president of the CuGany Packing company. which es- caped with a slight loss, said the com pany had proved the shipments had heen bought outright by Danish mer- chants. C. J. Faulkner of the legal staff of Armour said:
 T don't see how England justifies her decision. The goods shipped on the three of four ships involved were sent before the English order was issued. We could not stop the shipments when the order did come out; they were on the ocean,"

John Fairweather Address es International Irriga- tion Congress on Storage of Flood Waters and Ma tional Irrigation Fund.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHl

FRESNO, Sept. 16.-The final ses- sion of the International Irrigation Congress was held this evening. To- morrow the congress moves to Sacra = mento. John Fairweather, of F'res- no, spoke on the storage of Califor- ria flood waters and the national irrigation fund.
 Fairweather declared that too much reliance was put on the use of government money and not enough on home initiative. The funds se- cured are almost useless unless there is a formation of vigorous local as sociations to carry on the work and assure good living conditions for the settlers.
 He said the present wide expan- sion of pumping systems in arid dis tricts would in the end be a failure The impounding of water in vast reservoirs and equitable distribution through surface ditches is the only economical method that could be managed on a large scale so as to do justice to any considerable body of settlers.

SAY RUSSIAN
 ARMY CHANCE VAS NECESSARY
All Newspapers Agree That It Was Imperative That Emperor Should Take Personal Command of All Russian Forces.
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sParcH1

BERLIN, Sept 16.-An newspapers, says the Overseas agency, agree that the recent sensational changes in Russia were necessary in conso- quence of the military and political situation and that the emperor was compelled to take personal command of the Russian forces in order to rrevent further difficulties arising. The removal of Grand Duke Nicholas was commented upon as the greatest importance politically, as he is the incarnation of the anti German, na- tiOnalistic, imperialistic policy in Russia, and possibly responsible for forcing the war on the emperor, and obtaining the signature for the mob iiizatIon order in July, 1914. which prec.pitated the war
 The grand dukes removal is re- garded to have been imperative be- cause of domestic difficulties in Rus sia. as he was the head of the re- actiOnary element and responsible for the attitude of the gov arnment in failing to keep the promise of better treatment to the Jews and Poles. The consequences of the change are awaited with anxiety, says the com ment
 News of the recent victory of the crown princes army was received with general satisfaction, says the Overseas agency. Reports from the front say that troops under von Mudra were in readiness for action early in the morning. The artillery opened at eight o'clock firing with unprecedented violence. The rain of shells demolished the enemy tronch- es and shook the morale of the French troops.

WASHING ION, Sept 16.-British consuls in Northern Chihuahua and Sonora have been notified by the Brit ish embassy to confer with American officials in that territory as to the ad- visa ability of withdrawing with them to the United States.
 Informal inquiries were made by some European governments regarding Washington's next step in Mexico. Am bassador Jusserand of France, talFId to Secretary Lansing. British charge Barclay, discussed the situation with the state department officials, and mo- tified them that instructions had gone to British consuls to consult American representatives as to the adbisability of withdrawing from northern Mexico.
 From official quarters it was learned that no decision has been reached with respect to the recognition of any gov ernment in Mexico and the subject is to be fully considered at the Pan- American conference in New York on Saturday It is understood on account Of the international affairs that Car ranza's invitation to the conferees to meet him at some point on the border may not be accepted. but the sugges- tion of discussion with his representa- tives is likely to be met by an invitation to Carranza to send delegates here in stead.

Russians in South Repeat Their Successes Against AuStro-German Armies, Driving Them Back Over River Stripa.
RUSSIANS HAVE
 MUCH AMMUNITION
To South of Wilma Toward Grodno Russians Offer ing Stubborn Resistance and Have Germans Firm ly Held.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DlsPATcHl

LONDON, Sept. 16.-Stern battles are being fought along the eastern front from Riga to the Rumanian border and while the Germans con- tinue to advance slowly to the north and center the Russians in the south have repeated their successes against the Austro- German armies, which are now being driven back across the river Stripa in Galicia and have been forced to retire to the westward.
 While the Russian victories are welcomed as evidence that the arm ies are still able to take the offensive when supplied with ammunition there is no inclination to eXaggerate their importance. Engagements that keep the Austro Germans busy make it imperative to send endorsements south which could be used to better advantage in the north. General Big gen began an offensive against the Wilma -Dvinsk railway a week ago, but has not established himself on the line. His cavalry has been driven back.
 To the south of Wilma towards Grodno. the Russians are offering stubborn resistance and have the Germans firmly held Prince Leo pold has been delayed in his ad- vance. General von Mackensen has passed his forces through the Pripet marshes and is in possession of Pinsk. In the south the Russians are advancing and have occupied a number of villages. but are not likely to push their advantage further be- cause it would make their northern flank vulnerable.
 great deal of importance is at tached to the decision of Russia tc attach to the colors the reserves of the territorial army. fresh call means the possible addition of eight million men. All could not be armed and equipped but Russia has good prospects. With the Russians well supplied with munitions the allies have been supplying her. they are now able to turn their attention to their own armies and in consequence no cessation of artillery engagements has been marked in the west for several weeks.
