ALLIES TRYING 10
 INDUCE CHINA JOIN
Would Not Re Required to Engage in War but to Prevent Future
 Friction with Japan.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 2O.- It is reported to the Secretary of State from Picking that the Allies are
 trying to induce China to join them in order to prevent future friction between the Japanese and Chinese empires. In the event that China
 joins the Allies she will not be re-
 quired to participate in the present
 war nor will she be required to con- tribute in any way to the assistance of the Allies against the central pow CTS of Europe.
 Japan is reported to be back of the movement to unite the Chinese empire with the Allies as it is be- lieved that following the settlement of the European war that China will demand from the powers of the world the fulfillment of their promise that China should not be dominated by any foreign nation.
 Sentiment in Chinese official cir cles is largely pro-German and it is believed that Germany, should she win in the present struggle, will re- taliate against Japan for the seizure of German possessions unlna.

GOVERNOR II. DRIVE
 |. W. W. FROM UTAH
Declares He Will Ask for ExtraditiOn of William Busky if He Was
 With HillStrOm.

SALT LAKE. Nov. 2O.-Governor Spry, who refused to reprieve Joseph Hillstrom, although President Wilson expressed wish that the execution should be stayed, has received hun |dreds of messages protesting against his sending man to execution on lcircumstantial evidence.
 Governor Spry has also received messages and letters threatening his life and that of his family and his residence is being carefully guarded to prevent it being dynamited, and guards accompany him when he ap- pears in public. He has announced that he refused to reprieve Hillstrom because the condemned man was an T. w. w., and asserts that he will drive the Inous,.la. Workers from Colorado if the police fail to do so.
 The governor discredits the report ed confession of William Busky, in Seattle, and expresses the belief that Busky's confession was made for the purpose of gaining sympathy and that investigation will prove that Busky was not in Utah at the time of the murder. He asserts that if the fact is established by the Seattle author ities that Busky was in Salt Lake when Morrison was murdered that he will ask for his extradition and use his efforts in securing his conviction.
 Governor Spry asserts that the ln- dustrial Workers have not only re- tarded the development of Utah but that they have been responsible for most of the lawlessness and crime committed in the state.

RUSSIA BUYING
 MILLION RIFLES
Cleveland Manufacturers may Form a Syndicate to Handle Order
 for $26, 100000 Rifles.

CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 20.-Fac- tories in this city have been asked to bid for the contract for furnishing twenty-six million dollars worth of rifles for the Russian army. The terms of the contract require. bond that the arms be ready for delivery
 at an early date next spring and it is believed the rifles are intended for the equipment of the new army which Russia is raising for her spring campaign.
 It is probable that the huge con- tract will be secured by syndicate
 of Cleveland manufacturers who will
 divide the order for the manufacture
 of the rifles as there are no factories
 capable of handling the huge order
 alone. It is stated that special ma
 chinery must be installed in the fac
 tories for the manufacture of the ri-
 fles and that the limited time allow
 ed for delivery will compel manufac-
 turers to divide the order.

ID PLACE EMBARGO
 STRUCTURAL STEEL
Washington Fears the Exports May Hamper Building of Warships
 for United States Navy.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Nov. 2O.-- It is reported that congress will be asked to place temporary embargo on the exportation of structural steel in order to insure supply sufficient for the construction of the battle ships for the United States navy.
 At the present time the demand for pig iron and for the various lines of steel is in excess of the producing capacity of the furnaces and mills of the country. The manufacturers are unable to make satisfactory deliver ies to the purchasers with respect to a large majority of the different kinds of finished steel.
 Manufacturers declare there is nothing to indicate that there will be a decrease in the demand for any of these products for some time as the European war orders, together with the railroad building in Russia, and the revived activities of the railroads in the United States, secures a strong demand for many months to come.

 STIRRED ID DEPTHS
or Praise Physician for Refus- ing to Save Infants Life.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2O-Mrs. Bollin- ger. the mother of the three-days-old infant which was allowed to die in a Chicago hospital after Dr. Haiselder had refused to perform an operation to save it's life, knowing that it would be an object of horror for life, is sharing in the criticism and praise being showered on the physician
 Mrs. Bollinger, who is the mother of three normal children, gave birth to child which was terribly deform- ed, one eye and one ear being miss ing and the head being sunk between the shoulders and in every way indi- eating that the child would be insane and burden to society as long as it lived
 1 Dr. Haiselden. who is the surgeon of the hospital where the child was born. refused to perform an opera tion which would have prolonged the infants life and the mother of the child consented to let it die. When it become known that the child was being allowed to die, hun dreds of men and women assailed Dr. Haiselden ill person and by phone, abusing, pleading for the life of the , little one. or praising his action as being noble and for the best interest of the human race.
 Scores of petitions are being circu lated to have the surgeons license revoked and an effort is being made to have federal grand jury probe the case.
 Dr. Haiselden is defending his de- cision in permitting the infant to die and is confident that if the case should reach the courts that he will be exonerated. He declares that city like Chicago, which permits thousands of abortions to be perform ed every day, should not complain when one deformed child. which could not realize it's sufferings, was allowed to die.
 The action of the physician in per mitting the infant to die is being carefully handled by the writers of the Chicago papers, as sentiment is divided and most writers confine themselves to the statement that it would be dangerous thing to per init physicians the right to decide who shall live or who shall die in infancy.

 When the news of the public con- tession of the man who is believed To have been with Hillstrom was sent hroadcast by the Associated Press hnndreds of messages were received for details of the confession. 'Gov- tgnOr Spry, of Utah, who refused to grant a respite to the condemned man although President Wilson had urged clemency, has wired for the de- tails of Busky's confession.
 It is known that two men engaged in the holdup which resulted in the killing of Morrison and the wounding of his son, Arthur, but the other man was never discovered, although the police of every city in the west were anxious -o apprehend him. -A
