in the army, his judgment Of the Of
ficers Of the National Guard of the
State Of Maine bears the weight of
authority and his opinion should graf
ify every citizen Of the State.
Maine Discipline
Lieutenant Farnum has been partic-
ularly pleased with the discipline at
the officers school. The exemplary con-
duct of the camp has greatly increas-
ed the success of the school and he.
with the other instructors, Adjutant
General Presson and Col Hume, is en-
thusiastic in his commentator of the
correct military behavior of all pres
ent. Lieutenant Bonsteel said at the
close Of the school that he was entire
ly satisfied, thoroughly pleased with
the work and conduct Of the guards
men. and glad that he had been pres
ent at the school which he had en-
joyed immensely.
Great Good Spirit
And in the closing hours Of the
school Journal representative failed
to find a mark Of discomfort anywhere
and no one spoke a word Of disappoint-
ment or voiced a grievance. AS for
the instruction, Lieutenant Farnum
declared that he believed the new
knowledge gained by the officers and
non-commissioned officers would add
much to the high grade Of the work
done at the State camp later in the
summer and likewise would increase
the degree Of attainment in armory
drill through the application by the
officers and nom commissioned officers
OF their added experience upon taking
up their company work again. AS for
the satisfaction Of the officers, the
lieutenant said, he could not speak.
1t was only a step to the tent Of Col.
Hume. however. and one Of his first
remarks was complimentary to Lieu
tenant Farnum and his associates; he
finally gave up framing a definite trib-
ute to the value of the instruction and
in appreciation Of the men but summed
it all up by declaring that in voicing
his own and the sentiments of the
other officers it was necessary only to
say the very best things that could be
said. Lieutenant Bonsteel has done
most Of his work with the non-com-
missioned officers and Col. Hume said
that though he had marvelled at the
improvements attained under the d.
rection Of Lieutenant Bonsteel, it
meant far more to note that the nom
commissioned officers themselves were
warm in their appreciation of the
leutenant's work with them. Lieuten-
ant Niles. Lieutenant Resinger, Lieu
tenant Clark were spoken Of in the
highest terms: not a complaint to make
against them, nothing but praise for
their work.
The Rare Success
And thus 1t appears that tho ofYicers'
school Of 1916 is not only tho most sat-
isfactory ever conducted by the Nation
al Guard of Maine. but has proved re-
markable In many respects. When one
finds an officers school with which the
adjutant general Is so well pleased that
he cannot say enough in commentator
to satisfy himself. in which instructors
and officers have gotten along so famous
ly together that they are glad to go on
record In commentator Of each other,
and in which military records for marks

By ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Toxic, July 11.-What Japanese re-
gard as significant step in the pro-
motion of better understanding with
the United States was inaugurated
by the departure today OF an accredit-
ed Japanese labor delegate to the
Forthcoming international Labor Con-
gress at Los Angeles. This action is
the fruit of proposals made by DIR.
Sidney L. Quick, the American mis-
sionary and author, and Dean
Schailer Mathews, of the University
of Chicago, during their recent tour
of Japan.
The pioneer Japanese delegate who
left today is Bunji Suzuki, founder
and president of "The Laborers'
Friendly Society" which, in less than
three years time, he has built up to
such strength that it has member
ship of over 1000, with 81 branch or
CARNATIONS throughout the empire.
The object is to promote the technical,
fare of the japanese working sloda

social, moral and intellectual welfare
of the Japanese working people, and
to bring about better understanding
between labor and capital. The So
ciety keeps aloof from politics and it
is said to be looked upon with favor
by employers. It supports a sixty
four page monthly magazine, main
tains free legal bureau and holds
regular meetings addressed by cap
able leaders on labor and economic
topics.
President Suzuki, although only SO
years old, has won fame in Japan by
settling six formidable strikes within
the year, two Of them involving sew
eral thousand men. The strikes chief
" threatened the cotton, wooden and
electrical industries. Mr.. Suzuki is
a graduate of the law department of
the Imperial University, and in addi-
ton to his labor service, he is secre-
tary of the American Unitarian Mis-
sion at Toxic.

GERMAN ~ CENTINETRE GUNS
HEARD FOR DISTANCE I42' MILES
Present War Also Demon
strates There Is a "Zone
of Silence"
RY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Berlin, July Embarrassing light
on the question how far heavy ar
tiIlery fire can be heard is given by
DIR. Doerr, a German scientist, writ
ing in the intercollegiate Zeit-
schrift." From observations made at
the Dutch Meteorological Institute and
from other sources of information,
this writer shows that the German
heavy mortars used in the attack
upon Antwerp were heard to a dis
tance of 139 to LAP miles, but that
at distances only only 30 to go miles
nothing was heard. The "zone of ST.
lence" extended to about 100 to LOG
miles. Where the detonations could
again begin to be heard, however,
they were described as especially vio-
lent, so much that the ground seemed
to tremble.
The existence of such a "zone of
silence" appears not to have been
scientifically demonstrated previous
to the present war. 1t is mentioned,
for example, that in the wars of 1866
and 1870 German commanders on sew
eral occasions received instructions to
march to any point where they might
hear a cannonade; but they failed to
render the expected assistance, and
their explanations were discredited
when they reported that they heard
nothing, although the guns had been
heard by other troops at still more
distant points. When Frederick the
rGeat defeated the Austrians near
Liegnitz in 1850 the main body Of
the Austrians failed to hear the ar
tillery fire there and did not come ia
the assistance of their comrades
whereas other Austrian troops much
farther removed heard it and began
their march toward the scene of ac-
ton.

HIDDEN BOMBS
FOUND IN CARGO
OF kIRKOSWALD
Nine Unexploded Internal
Machines Secreted In
Sugar Consignment
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

New York, July 11.-Nine unex-
ploded bombs were found aboard the
steamer Kirkoswald at Marseilles
when she discharged her sugar cargo
from New York on her last outward
voyage, according to the Kirkoswald's
officers who reached here yesterday
on the steamers return trip.
All the bombs were hidden in bags
of sugar, the Kirkoswald's officers
said. The sugar was taken aboard,
they said, at the Fabre line pier in
Brooklyn.
The Kirkoswald, flying the British
flag, sailed from New York, May 2.
This was about the time that the ac-
tivities of the bomb placers, so far
as yet disclosed, reached their height
Of the three other vessels which, It
was learned recently, sailed out of
New York with bombs secreted in
their cargo, two departed within q
few days of the Kirkoswald. These
were the Lord Erne, sailing April 20
and the BankdaIe, which left May Z.
Like the Kirkoswald, both. these
vessels were British and both sailed
for French port-Havre. The Amer
lean and French governments, it was
said having been pressing invitations

GERMANS FAIL
IN MOVE ALONG
WESTERN FRONT
Setback in East, Given BY
Russians, Causes a Change
in Plans.
NEW FORCES GOING
TO MEET RUSSIANS
In the West There Is a Lull,
Because Germans Halted
Offensive.
~ AssiocIArEn PRESS.


London, July 1.-THE check which
the Russians have imposed on Arch
duke Joseph Ferdinand's army in
southern Poland and the additional
strain this has placed on the German
army to the right, is believed by mil
itary critics here to have postponed
the threatened German offensive in
the west. There is possibility that
the allies will take the offensive first.
1t is pointed out that the attacks by
the German crown princes army in
the Woevre region, which the German
press announced as the beginning of
a general move forward, have ceased.
Fighting lately reported in the west
consisted of artillery engagements
and 9 few isolated infantry attacks
and counter attacks.
The German reports, however, al
lude to this as British attack, which
they say was repulsed mt a consider
able British loss. While the British
and German reports are contradictory
it is evident that neither side has at
tempted anything Of a decisive nature.
1t is believed here that it may be
weeks before they do so.
While the critics still are unde-
cided whether the Russians will make
a stand on their present lines or fall
back to the Bug river, thus abandon
ing fortresses Ivangored and War
saw, it is agreed that the counter at
tack which the Russians have de.
veloped, has postponed, for a time al
least, the necessity of a further re.
tirement.
Reports from neutral sources sa,
that to make good their efforts
against the Russians, the Germans
are moving troops intended FOR tn,
west to the east. To. certain extern
this seems confirmed by the Russian
report OF German activity and troops
movements.
There is no confirmation of the re
ported italian victory at Cors,
! Plateau, but more reports say tn,
Italians are making good progress
in capturing the mountains aroun'
Triest.
