BERLIN. July 6-Admiral oscar
Won Truppel, at one time governor Of
Kiao- Chow, the German concession IN
the Chinese province of Shantung,
captured In November by the Japan
ese, contributes an article to Der Tag,
warning his eompatriots not to un-
derestimate the danger Of a breach
with the United States and asking
them to weigh seriously the question
whether the value Of Germanys sub
marine warfare against British COM
merce is great enough to justify a
continuance of its present form at the
expense of a rupture with the trans
Atlantic nation.
The article is remarkable, not only
for its open statement regarding the
wlde-reaching effects which the par
ticlpation Of America in the hostilities
might exercise on the future course
OF the war--effects which Admiral
Won Truppel says are greatly under
estimated in Germany. but also as a
contribution from a naval officer.
Stand New in Germany.
All the naval publicists Of Germany
heretofore heard from have devoted
their energies to accelerating public
opinion against any modification OF
the submarine and endeavoring to
prevent. or to limit concessions to
American demands In the forthcom-
ing German note to Washington.
The discussion between the adyo-
Gates and opponents Of the question
still is keen, and the delivery of the
note, which a few days ago was
scheduled for Monday or Tuesday,
will probably be postponed for sever
al days.
1t is hoped by those who favor a
compromise that the words of the
admiral will produce a change in the
naval party whose views thus far
have been opposed to any note of
character outlined previously in these
dispatches.
Passenger ships May BE Exempt
This was to the effect that in all
probability the reply will embody

Admiral Won Truppel in his article
in Der Tag writes;

able to contribute little to the mill

CITY MUST Protect employees
UNDER LIABILITY ACT OF STATE

take out compensation policy with
some liability company or assume all
liabilities accruing for the death or
injury of an employe.
I'VE have to do one of the two
things" Mr.. Bavis said. Il think the
most economical policy would be for
the city to assume all liabilities, or
in other words be its own liability in
surance company. | think if $4,000 a
year for the next four years was ap-
propriated for compensation fund
there would be enough monies in it
at the end Of that time, plus the in
terest it would bear, to meet our
needs.
1t has always been the practice Of
this city to pay hte salaries Of en-
ployes who have been incapacitated,
payments some times being kept up
for a period longer than prescribed
under the compensation act. So about
the only advantage the city would
obtain from taking out compensation
policy would be in the event of the
death of an employe while engaged
in the city's business.
Here is another point; the best
offer we have received from any liza
bility company calls for the payment
of an annual premium of $3.50 but
the company is only obligated to pay
SIS per cent of the injured employees
salary while incapiciated."

City Attorney Bond after reviewing
the provisions Of the workmen's com
pensation act, which becomes opera
tive September l, expressed the opin-
ion to the board of public works that
it was compulsory for the city of Rich
mond to take out policy with some
liability company to provide for the
compensation Of injured employees
while incapacitated, and to pay dam
ages in the event of the death Of an
employee while performing his duty.
or to guarantee the state authorities,
in the event no such policy is taken
out, that the city will assume all liza
bility itself in the event Of the death
or injury of an employe.
He said it was optional with bust
ness concerns whether they elected to
place themselves under the provis-
ions Of the act. The city attorney,
however, anticipates that there will be
very few business concerns which will
not place themselves under compen-
sation law, pointing out that concerns
which fail to do SO are practically ex-
cluded from entering any defense to
litigation brought by employees or their
heirs to recover damages for injuries
or death.
President Bavis of the board OF
public works is the only city official
who has so far expressed, publicly, an
opinion as to whether the city should

The year preceding, 1913, saw more
than four times as many, or about
$50 crimes of this character, brought
to the attention of the authorities and

following this high tide was largely
due to the rounding up of the notori

SUPERfLuOuS HAIR
MUST Be ATTACKED
UNDER THE SKIN

It has been proven by the worlds
greatest authorities that hair is bound
to grow out coarser and sitter after
each removal unless it is devitalized.
1t is impossible to devitalize hair with
pastes and rub-on preparations, be-
cause they only remove hair from the
surface of the skin.
DeMiracle. the original liquid de-
pilatory, deyitalizes hair by attacking
it under the skin as we'll as on the
skin. limitations OF DeMiracle are as
worthless as pastes and rub-on prepa-
rations. because they lack certain in
gradients that DeMiracle alone con-
ta.ns which might give It the power
to rob hair of it's vitality-its life sus-
tanning force.

Miracle today and you will get the or
iginal liquid hair remover. Others are

stolen a young child for $50.
Ends Activities.
With the rounding up of this gang
and the ending of the activities of its
bomb factory" the police thought
"bomb planting would cease. But 1t
did not. proving that many single
criminals or Independent bands were
operating with explosives.
Undoubtedly the ease with which
dynamite and other explosives can be
procured and the widespread knoWl-
edge of their use in this city is to a
large extent to blame for conditions.
ENORMOUS rapid transit projects, en-
ploying tens of thousands of workmen
are under way. besides the countless
other construction jobs, most of
which involve blasting into the solid
rock base of Manhattan Island.
Italian laborers can easily steal a
few sticks Of dynamite from contrac-
tor for whom they are working. Prob
ably ninety per cent. of bomb crimes
are committed by Italians, the victims
usually being other Italians.

NEW YORK, July 16.-How much
does mans house cost in New York?
At first glance this looks like
foolish question. New Workers live in
apartment houses. The cottage and
garden is rarity.
But by dividing the cost Of an apart
ment house by the number Of family
flats it contains we get something
which may be called the cost of a
householder's dwelling.
Figuring thus we learn that it will
cost $4,000 to house the average Man
haitian family in the new buildings,
plans for which were filed in the first
six months OF this year. This is a
great drop from 1914, when the aver
age was $4862.
In Brooklyn the average cost of COW
ering the heads Of the apartment
house family Is $1,000; in Queens ST.
600; in the Bronx $500.
Despite the war there is an apart
ment house building boom. The apart
ment house filed for the first six
months of this year in the greater city
almost equalled in cost those Of the
whole year 1914.

LONDON, July 16.-Walter Runci-
man. president of the board of trade,
conferred with representatives of the
coal miners and operators of South
Wales here today and served notice
upon them that the strike which has
made 10000 men idle must be quick
~ ended
The operators declared the miners
responsible for the strike, stating that
the owners were willing to arbitrate
the trouble, and the workers had de-
elined absolutely to consider media
ton.
The miners who have struck are
practically in rebellion against the
government, and President Runciman
so informed their leaders when he
met them 1t was limited in official
circles today that if the strike were
not ended Immediately the govern
ment would take over the colleries
and operate them with workers under
the protection of troops.
That the result of Mr.. Runciman's
conference was unsatisfactory was in.

David Lloyd-George, minister of mu-

NEW YORK, July 16.-New York
is the healthiest big city in the world.
One pest, however, Father Knicker-
booker battles against in vain the
bomb planter. While comparative
statistics are lacking it is safe to say
that no great metropolis approaches
this one in it's black record of cease
less dynamitings, with attendant
damage to property and human life.
The recent explosion in the base
ment of Manhattan's palatial police
headquarters was a great piece of i'm
pudence, but in this respect it scarcely
excelled some other points in bomb
history here. Many men have been
the victims of several successive
bombs, with the police striving to give
them protection all the time. There
are notorious bomb blocks" in the
city where the inhabitants time and
again have been thrown from their
beds in the middle of the night and
descended the fire escapes, in bare
foot, nightie-clad, squeaking multi
tudes.
Bomb explosions fall naturally into
three major groups:
