BUCHANAN SCORES
PRESIDENT WILSON
Chief Executive Unable to
Attend National Peace
Council.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-The White
House today made public correspond.
ence with Representative Buchanan,
of Illinois, who asked for a confer.
ence with President Wilson for labor's
national peace council and when re.
fused on the grounds that the presi.
dent had no time for other than in.
ternational affairs, wrote Secretary
Tumulty that the refusal was tanta.
mount to a declaration that the presl.
dent is more concerned about the de-
sires of big business than he is to dis.
cover the heartfelt sympathy OF the
common people.
Buchanan added that II he could not
see the president, he would issue an
open letter to the American people.
Secretary Tumulty wrote Buchanan he
resented the tone OF his letter and the
"unwarranted inference drawn from
the presidents inability to see him.
las far as / am concerned" wrote
Tumulty, there is no objection to
any statement you may desire TO make
public in this matter"

Soldier Boys
on Their WQu

MoNoPoLlzED BY
LADS BIDDING FAREWELL
TO sWEETHEARTs.
BELL AND sKILMoRE MAY WIN
CHAMPIONSHIP FOR SHOOT.
ING.

Soldier boys saying goodbye to tlVeir
sweethearts could be. heard on the ta'
ephone lines this forenoon and last
night whenever the wires happened to
get crossed. Hotel booths were mon.
opolized; public telephones everywhere
were in use; all OF them conveying
endearing words to the "sweeteNt
girls in the world"
No amount of talk could convince
the fair ones that the boys were not
preparing for war. Each militiaman
could be heard whispering enCourag
ing nothings to his sweetheart, trying
to make certain that she would not
worry about him while he was gone.
The militia left here this morning In
two companies. Fl and |, for Parkers
burg. where the state encampment will
be held for the next 10 days. Fair
mont has one of the largest companies
in the state this year, under the com
mand OF Captain Ned Carskadon. Com
pany |, siXty.five men comprising this
battalion. Company II, under the com.
mand OF Captain Neptune, is COmpris'
ed Of so men.
For several days the guards have
been drilling In the streets of Fair
mont and getting into practice In the
armory for the events to be held dur.
ing the 10 days at Parkersburg. They
are well drilled and disciplined, and
the heart of every member Of the mil,
tia rs In his work.
The craftsmanship of some OF the
members OF Company | should. accord
ing to the captain, make an impression
on the national guardsmen from other
barracks ,as Bell and Skidmore, wh7
are in this company, have excellent
records with the rife.
The men left here on train for
Grafton this morning. all of them
looking as though the trip was just
what they had been waiting for. Word
from the camp will be welcomed each
day by the friends of the guardsmen,
and also the scores made by the men
in the rifle events.
To show how eager the men were
to get away, 65 OF them entered the
Roush Restaurant with just 20 min.
utes to get tn cir meal. With the quick
service of the Roush House all OF the
65 men had eaten and left the estab.
lishment in just IS minutes.

PENINSuLAR.

LONDON, Aug. 9.--Russia having
rejected what in England is regarded
as a bonifide proposal, made by the
German emperor for peace, with d
part OF Poland traded Tor Galicia, the
great struggle in the east must con-
tinue, and as there is no indication of
an immediate general offensive by
either side in the west, the struggle
OF the Russian forces to shake them
selves free OF Austro.German grip re-.
mains the chief factor in the war
news, with added interest in the Dar-
danelles operations.
The Ganpoli field will be closely
watched, because OF possible bear
ing on the Balkan situation, again
simmering, by reason OF renewed
quadruple pressure on Bulgaria and
Greece.
Never before has the importance OF
the operations at the Dardanelles been
more realized in Great Britain and

Prohibition in
West Virginia
Reduces Crime
COMMISSIONER BLUE MAKES
PUBLIC REPORTS FROM ALL
PARTS OF STATE.
ARRESTS FOR DRUNKENNESS
AND OTHER GRIMES LESS
THAN ONE HALF.

Showing a 80 per cent crime reduc.
tion and rs per cent decrease in ar.
rests for drunkenness, a report com.
piled from all cities, towns and VII
lagos of West Virginia was sent out
today for publication by Fred o. Blue,
state commissioner OF prohibition.
Reduction in arrests Is a concrete
result OF prohibition, which. accord
ing to Mr.. Blue, may be put in sta.
tisticai form.
However he observes, there are good
results which are impossible to record.
The commissioner Of prohibition an.
ticipates many other good results our.
ing the coming year.
From all sections OF West Virf..ia
Mr.. Blue has been assured Of the CO.
operation OF the authorities who are
working in conjunction with the state
department to prevent so far as posi-.
BILE, violations Of the Yost law.
Mr.. Blue Is confident that so far pro-
hibition has been more successful in
West Virginia than any other state in
the union. He regards the success as
conclusive proof that the Yost law is
the most efficient that has ever been
enacted in this country.
Since the decision Of the United
States supreme court that liquor might
be shipped into dry counties of Ken
lucky where intended for personal
use, and the submission OF the amend
ment to the Yost law by the United
States supreme court, -ttTere Has been
considerable speculation as to the re-
suit. The state authorities, however,
believe that liquor will never again
be shipped into West Virginia.
Reports received by Mr.. Blue show
that the cities on the border lines of
the states near wet territories are feel.
the least result of prohibition. Even
in these cities. however, the conditions
are improving.
Mr.. Blues letter follows:
I'VE have received reports from 81
municipalities throughout the state.
which shows the following results. To-
tai arrests for the year ending June
20, 1914, 15,267; total arrests for the
year ending June 30, 1915, 1871. For
the year ending June 30, 1914, there
were arrested for drunkenness. 1925,
and for the year ending June 30, 1915,
there were arrested for drunkenness.
.2,722.
You will note there Is a decrease
in crime in the state as shown by
these reports of practically fifty per
cent, and a decrease in drunkenness
OF practically seventy-fve per cent.

BRAZILIAN FORCED
FROM MEXICO CITY
Expulsion Of Minister Hin
ders Work of Pan Amer
lean Conference.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-Officials
here today state that the Brazilian
minister at Mexico City, the only dig
lomatic representative the United
States has in Mexico had been with
drawn by the government because
General Carranza was prepared to ex-
pei him from the country, as he did
Senior Ortega, the Guatemalen minis
ter.
The Brazilian ministers reported TO
the State Department today that no
reason had been given for the ex-
pulsion of Senor ONega, and that he
himself intended to sail Wednesday
from Vera Cruz on a French liner
for the United States. It is believed
here that Carran2a expelled the Qua.
temalan and was preparing for the
Brlzilian, because OF the participation
OF their countries In the Pan.Ameri.
can conference in Washington for COM
posing Mexican affairs.
The development Is a very disturb.
ing one for the success of the Pan
American conference. Officials who
"cle HopIHb SdlidIl"u WOulu JOlH d
peace conference with his adverse.
ries and meet the efforts of the Pan.
American nations to settle factlonal
strife we're greatly disappointed.
1t was said by Carranza agents
that neither the Guatemalan nor the
Brazilian minister have been on good
terms with Carranza, and it had been
Carranza's intention to hand the ra.
zilian's transport as soon as he again
reoccupied the Mexican City. The
participation of Brazilian and Guata.
malian ministers in the Pan.American
conference, they say, brought Car.
ranza's resentment TO a climax.
