COURIER FROM 1EsiEGED CITY
TO VERA CRUZ BRINGS VERY.
ALARMING REPORTS.
SITUATION IS VERY SERIOUS
zapatistas With 10000 Well Armed
Men, With Plenty Ammunition.
Are Ready for Fight Against
Carranza Force.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS conditions
In Mexico City, with unchecked mobs
rioting and footing, are described in
dispatches cabled to the United States
government from Vera Cruz by a cour-
Ter who left the Mexican capital last
Friday, June Is.
When the courier started virtually
the entire garrison had been with.
drawn to join the Zapata army on the
outskirts of the city opposing h at.
lacking Carranza force under Gen. Pa
BILE Gonzales. Gonzalez had been driv'
en- back with considerable loss, but
was waiting for requirements com.
ing up from Vera Cruz before renew.
ing the assault.
No mention was made. of attacks
upon foreigners, SO officials assumed
that they were safe. Many stores had
been looted, the dispatches said, and
great mob4 were rioting and selling
food wherever it was to be found.
The Mexican capital has been cut of
from communication with the outside
world by wire and rail since Tune IL.
The Zapatistas are said to have
nearly %, 1000 men and, although poorly
equipped for battle against Gonzalez
we'll armed and plentifully supplied
with ammunition, are preparing te
fight desperately before leaving the
capital to Carranza.

ALABAMA WITHOUT LIQUOR
Stringent Prohibition Law Becomes
Effective June 3O-Much Revenue
10 Lost in Operation Of Law.

Montgomery. = Legally speaking,
Alabama is without liquor now. At IL
o'clock on the night of June 80 saloons
in the seven counties and the dispen-
sary in the one county which have sold
intoxicants under the law Of 1911 were
closed, never to open again until the
Merritt-D benson prohibition law is
For several weeks liquors have been
sold at bargain prices to those who
were attracted without the glare OF
newspaper and billboard liquor adver.
Using, and reports from all counties
indicate that only small amounts OF
liquor were on hand when the saloons
closed for the last time.
II a person sells intoxicants in this
state now he is subject t o prosecution
under the most stringent laws ever
adopted by any state. He may be
fined or imprisoned or both punish
ments may be inflicted. If he is sus.
rected. of being a violator Of the pro.
hibition law his premises may be
searched and the mere holding of more
than the amount permitted by law is
prima facie evidence that he has the
liquor for illegal disposition.
Estimates are that Alabama will
lose about $4,000 a year by the oper.
alton OF the prohibition law, while the
counties and cities in which saloons
have been run will be forced TO find
the means OF replacing a much greater
amount.

Austro-German Forces Push Across

LOndOn.-Driven back w their

forced to cross the River Gnila Lipa,

mics continue to retreat before the

prOximately $50 miles.
Berlin records progress in virtually
the entire southeastern theater, al
though violent fighting still is in prog

joins the Dniester at Halicz.
Having forced a passage of this
stream Gen. Won Linsingen's army is
presumably astride the railway run
ming from Halicz to Lemberg and
Stanislau, and now doubtless aiming
at the line which uns from Lemberg
to Odessa through Tarnopol.
It seems evident that Germany is

BELGIANS RAISING CROPS
German Military Governor Will Allow
Civilians Ali Wheat and Rye
Raised in War Zone.

LOndOn.-Herbert G.. Hoover, chair
man of the American commission for
relief in Belgium, has concluded an
agreement with Gen. Won Kissing, mill
tary governor in Belgium, providing
that the wheat and y crops in the
zone occupied by the Germans shall
be reserved for the ciilvian population.
"The occupation ION cover all of
Belgius except West Flanders and a
portion Of East Flanders, which areas
are under control of the active army
and not within Gen. Won Bissing's jur-
isdiction," said Mr.. Hoover in making
the announcement. "The undertaking,
therefore, does not extend to the lat
ter named territory.
Thanks to abundant seed provided
by the commission and the industry of
the Belgian peasant, the harvest prom
Uses to be very good. Normally Bel
gian production of grain furnishes SUI.
ficient breadstuffs for between two
and three months, but with the much
more economical consumption now rig
orously enforced by the commission
the harvest yield should owe a con-
siderably longer period this year.
while the details of the arrange.
ment are not all settled, it is a part of
the undertaking that one-twelfth OF
the harvest yield shall be issued to the
people each month, the commission un'
dertaking to import the necessary bal
ance to maintain the present ration,
The precise method of acquiring the
harvest is still under consideration.

ASKS HELP ON WAR LOAN
Premier Asquith Urges National Thrift
to Bear Strain Of $15,000,00o Per
Day Expense.


Day Expense.
London.-Penny-wise economy here
tofore has not been a strong feature OF
the gatherings at Guild Hall, so closely
connected with aldermanic banquets
of p~roverbial opulence, but Premier
Asuuith chose this home of wealth to
initiate a movement In support OF the
British war oar on June 20. He urged
personal thrift throughout the nation
SO as to make it possible for the coun-
try to bear the strain of the expendl-
ture of SIS, 900 900 daily entailed by tho
cost of the war.
AS if to give the campaign a good
send-off, the first really big subscrip-
ton to the war loan was announced 81
multaneously with the appearance OF
Premier Asquith on the PLATFORM II
was by a London assurance company
and for $4,000, 0OO.
Premier Asquith emphasized that
his was the first great democratic
loan in the financial history of Great
Britain. The state, he said, was ap.
pealing to all classes, even those whose
resources were most limited.
Waste on the part of either 1ndi
viduals or classes" said Mr.. Asquith,
(which always is foolish and short
sighted, is, in these times, nothing
short of a national danger"
The premier then discussed how a
country which normally had only $500,
OOO, 900 to spare yearly could get this
huge, unprecedented draft out OF its
resources. He dismissed as impracti
cable the idea of selling investments
| property or of borrowing abroad.
