WASHINGTON. Sept. 23.-In the Frye note Germany has given the United states formal assurances that American vessels carrying conditional contraband. will under no circum- stances. be destroyed even though itley are deemed lawful prizes. The right to destroy American merchant men. if carrying absolute contraband, is reserved, but the promise is given

 Germany is anxious to submit to arbitration the meaning of the treaty on this point. and it is possible if no further cases of damage occur during the pendency of the arbitra tion, the American government may be disposed to await decision of the arbitral tribunal The thing that attracted attention in connection with the German note was the evident necessity of the submarine comman- der's new orders to exercise the right to visit and search with respect to all American vessels to determine the nature of their cargoes. The fact that Germany has referred to it's desire to demonstrate conciliatory attitude toward the United States is regarded Dy many officials as evil dence that the Berlin foreign office is disposed to avail itself of every

LONDON. Sept. 23.-"The Riddle Of the Balkans as London terms the latest developments on the near east ern peninsula arising out of Bull garia's order for mobilization, re : mains unsolVed The greatest un certainty exists even in official cir cles of London as to the intentions of King Ferdinand and his advisors. It is not certain that mobilization has begun or that the date has been set. \ report from Athens states mobil . iZation has been postponed. It is known that the entente representa- uves in Sofia and other Balkan capi- tals are still busy trying to recon struct the Balkan league and thus prevent Rumania. Bulgaria, Greece and Serbia from fighting among themselves.
 The central powers have com menced to make their way through Serbia. one of the intervening neut- ral countries to the Aegean Sea. With Russia more than holding her own against the Austro Germans in Cialicia and Volhynia it is believed the Balkan powers will hesitate be- fore going contrary to the wishes of tnSlI DE HelSnDpT anu pTOleclOT.

LONE RANCHER |S MENACED BY
 HERD 0F ELK

Protection for big game is al right. but the rancher should be pro tected first according to E. B. Ed = wards. of near Winslow, who has written to the state game department that a herd of elk is eating up his farm destroying his fences and dew astating things generally. He not only asks damages for hay eaten by the elk, but also demands that steps be taken to protect property from the depredations of the states antlered charges.
 Mir. Edwards. early in the season. had a small tract on which was d good crop of alfalfa hay. The crop was not as heavy as last year, when 1t amounted to three tons. but it was almost as good It would have amounted to about two tors herd of elk descended upon the alfalfa field: when they departed most of the crop departed with them. In spite of the efforts of MT. Edwards to keep them out, and a strengthen ing of the defenses, they returned, and brea king through the fence. dev- astated his field again.
 Two tons of hay. the rancher says, does not sound important. But when nay has to be hauled from Winslow, 60 miles away. and it costs five dol lars a day for man and team, the loss is of some consequence Mfr Edwards. however, does not wish tO exaggerate the importance of his loss-he would be willing to settle with the state for $50.
 The claim has not yet been acted on by, the game department. Mean while any anxiety that Game Warden Willard may have had as to the welfare of the elk is dispelled.

 T don't remember that any union unan has complained since | was elected their representative said Mitchell.
 ~I don't believe Mitchell knows whether they are union men or not" broke in Rockefeller. I'm quite sure the officers of the company don't, and let me tell you. the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company doesn't care whether it's men belong to the union ar not
 Look here" he flashed. turning to Griffiths. do you make any distinc- tinn between union and non n-union men in settling the grievances ap- pealed to you by the miners?"
 T certainly don't" replied Grif- fiths.
 Are not all the men treated alike as long as they are willing to work and behave themselves?' persisted Rockefeller.
 Yes" Griffiths answered.
