All the children in the John Lime

week with an attack of whooping
cough in mild form. All of them
are better today and no spread of the
contagion is feared.

Malmberg is telling much better and

Hat chasers were out in full force
Monday which added amusement to
an otherwise bleak day. A terrific
wind which arose in the night con-
tinued through the day and it lifted
headgears into the cutters and rolled
them through the streets. Because
of the disagreeable weather not many
people ventured out and business at
the stores was slack.
Henry Berg has resigned his posi-
ton at the Kruger drug store and
will leave in week or ten days for
4 Paynesville. Berg's departure leaves
a vacancy on the Morris city basket
ball squad that cannot easily be filled
and prospects for recognizing the

friends in Morris regret his decision
to leave town.

Speakers Want Entire Revenue Bu-

NEW YORK, August 24-The i'm
portance of having the entire United
States internal revenue service placed
under the civil service was urged by
speakers at the opening session of the
Internal Revenue Associations sixth
annual convention here yesterday. Dep
uty collectors, which have been under
the civil service. were taken out by act
of Congress last session, and other en-
ployes under the collectors of internal
revenue are now under the civil service
Richard Powers of Chicago, president
of the organization, said. in an address,
that I'VE are not now. nor have we
been in the past, compensated for the
services rendered by the men who col
lect the greater portion of the country's
revenue.
He urged that IAN honest expression
on the wage question" be given at this
convention, so that the committee to
which it will be referred will have data
to present to the committee on appro-
priations of the next session of Con-
gress.

PRESIDENT DENIES REQUEST.
Declines to Grant Extra Leave on
Plea of Government Clerks.

President Wilson has declined the re-
quests of Spanish War Veterans and
other similar organizations that members
of those organizations in the service OF
the government be allowed leave with pay
to attend the annual encampments to be
held at various places. The request fol-
lowed the executive order of the President
granting to G. y. r. veterans in the gov
eminent service the privilege of attending
the annual encampment in this city with
cut loss of time. The view taken by the
President, it is said, was that he must
draw the line somewhere in requests of
this sort, and that he cannot go on in
definitely in permitting government en-
ployes belonging to certain organizations
to leave their desks upon government
time.
The President said the Spanish war
veterans desiring to attend the Scranton
cncampment could do so if their services
could be spared without impeding the gov
eminent work, such absence to be charged
against their annual leave.

Twenty-Five Day Starve to Death.
MEXICO CITY, August 10, by courier
to Vera Cruz. August 16. via New Or

ton continue in this city and most con-
sentative estimates place them at
twenty-five day
A visit to the various hospitals by
representative OF the American lSed
Cross disclosed that for the first three
days of August twenty deaths from
starvation were recorded. This num-
Der did not include the many who died
in the streets from lack of food. Yes
terday six death certificates attributed
as the cause.
During the month of July 1,S56 deaths
were registered in Mexico City. Ac-
cording to Charles J. OConnor of the
American Red Cross. s per cent of the
deaths occurring in Mexico City are
due to starvation. AS many deaths
from starvation are not properly au
thenticated it is believed that an aver
age of twenty-five daily from this cause
is a conservative figure. The military
authorities learned of Investigations
made by Red Cross workers and order
ed that hospital or cemetery officials
shall not make public any statistics in
the future.
Notwithstanding the fact that the au-
thorities here may be actuated by sim
cere motives to relieve the distress,
their work up to now has been of
little or no effect. School teachers,
government employees and even en-
ployes of the Beneficiencia Publica,

Carranza Supplies Near End.

Such supplies as were brought in by
Gen. Gonzales when Carranza forces oc-
cupied the capital on August are
nearly exhausted. The situation is
such that only large supplies of pro-
visions from outside the capital can
prevent an increase in the number of
deaths from starvation and allay the
misery among the lower classes and
even the middle classes here.
A comparison of prices during July,
1914. and July this year shows the fol-
lowing increases: Corn, 2,4O0 per cent
beans, 1900; rice, 1,420; sugar, $40, and
flour, 900. The increase in price of
corn, the only absolutely essential
staple for the Mexican people, has
rendered it's procurement by the poor
impossible, and many cases have been
discovered of entire families who have
been compelled to suosist on herbs.

The first step toward arming the

probably will be the authorization OF

inch guns be adopted as the type ioi

Not only will all the new fortlhca..

will be substituted for the fourteen

larly supposed. to secure longer
range. The present fourteen-inch gun,
1T is generally admitted, has as long
a range as is necessary. and. in fact
the range of the fourteen-inch guns at
a high angle will throw a proJectile
as far as the fire of a gun can be con-
trolled But the sixteen-inch gun
throws a heavier projectle and has
greater ballistic powers.
