Discuss Arabic Case at Front

Berlin, Aug. 28.-The Arabs Incl
dent and Germanys submarine policy
are the subjects of consideration at
conference now being held at the
eastern headquarters of the German
army between Emperor William and
DR.. Won Bethmann-Hollweg, the
German imperial chancellor; Admiral
Won Tirpitz, German minister of ma
rine, and Admiral Won Mueller, chief
of the private marine cabinet, and the
emperors personal advisor on naval
affairs
No news concerning the conference
has reached Berlin. However, Ad
miral Won Mueller is said to have
thrown his influence with that of the
imperial chancellor and Foreign Min
lister Won Jagow in an endeavor to
reach an amicable understanding with
the United States. For this reason
the opinion is expressed in the Ger
man capital that there is no cause
to change the optimistic view of the
, situation created by DR.. Won Beth
mann-Holweg's announcement Of
last Wednesday,.

Big Strike Of Clothing
Workers Threatened

Baltimore, Aug. 2S.-A general
strike of clothing workers, involving
100000 in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Bos
ton Chicago, Rochester, st. Louis, Gin
cinnati and Milwaukee is in the meet
ing of the executive council of the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers OF
America here.
Official announcement authorizing
the strike which will tie up the cloth
ing industry, it was said, would prob
ably be made at mass meeting to be
held here tomorrow.
The council authorized the Chicago
workers to make their demands for a
4S-hour week and higher wages. In
the event the manufacturers refused,
a general strike involving $4,000 in
Chicago will be called within six
weeks at the beginning of the busy
season. The grievance hinges on the
long working hour and unless these
are shortened together with gen
eral betterment, in a short time the
leading clothing centers of the coun-
try will be tied up.
There is also a possibility of SYM
pathetic strike being called among the
other workers in smaller cities.

New Hope for Peace
Has Arisen in Europe

Washington, Aug. 28.-Out of the re
taxing tension of the situation brough
about by the German submarine war
fare in which American lives had beer
lost, new hope for peace in Europe
has sprung.
German observers here have note(
that there is a group in each country
which sees possibilities of American
mediation behind the peaceful adjust
, ment of the German-American dis
pute. With one concession won from
the belligerents by diplomatic means
the security of the lives of neutrals
on the high seas-it is thought pos
sible that other proposals may follow
with the restoration of peace as their
object. The ascendency of the lib
eral element in Germany, it is said
lends color to that view as far as
Germany is concerned.
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, will leave Washington to-
morrow for New York to await in
structions from his government, which
he confidently expects will lead to
negotiations which will bring a speedy
and wholly satisfactory conclusion to
the present controversy between the
United States and Germany over the
question of submarine warfare.
Unless the situation in Berlin
changes before the dispatches are
sent the ambassador believes he will
be authorized to reopen informal dis
cussion with Secretary of State Lam
sing to the end that note may be
framed by the German government en-
tirely satisfactory to the United
States.
AS far as the state department is
concerned formal presentation of the
Arabic case to Germany awaited re.
ceipt from Ambassador Gerard at
Berlin of the German admiralty's re-
port on the destruction Of the ship.
Dispatches from Berlin tonight said
the report might be made any day or
might be delayed a fortnight
In German circles here it is firmly
believed that the Berlin government
is anxious to bring to quick and
friendly termination the whole discus
sion over the submarine campaign.
The visit of Count Won Bernstorff to
Washington, acting on instructions
from Berlin, is viewed as proof that
the liberal element of the German
government has triumphed and that
every effort will be made to meet
the views of President Wilson as ex.
pressed to the ambassador in an in
terview soon after the Lusitania was
destroyed

Taken at Point Of Bayonets


Austro Hungarian Headquarters
via London, Aug. 2S.-The fortress of
Brest-Litovsk was taken largely
with bayonets, according to details Of
the Teutonic storming of that strong.
hold, which have been received here.
The Croatain and Cracow infantry are
said to have distinguished themselves
in the charges against the southern
and western fronts while the German
reserve corps forced it's way into the
citadel and the town from the north.
The Russians have erected a new
line of works beyond the swamps en-.
circling the fortress, three to four kilo.
meters outside the prominent forts.
The attack began late in the after.
noon of Aug. Is. The infantry Of
Gen. Won Arse advanced on both sides
OF the Biala turnpike. They hewed
their way with entrenching tools and
gunbucks through the ENHANCEMENT
under heavy rifle and machine gun
fire and charged the fort with the
bayonets.
The charge was irresistible. The
cheering infantry charged fort after

Ce11nanic Allies Still
After Russian Armies

London, Aug. 28.-The Germani
allies have not yet exhausted thei
efforts to smash completely the Rus
sian army. While the Germans l.
the Baltic provinces under Fiel
Marshal Won Hindenberg have agai
become aggressive and are attempt
ing to drive the Russians back t.
Divina, the Acknowledgements wit
the assistance of the Germans hav
taken the offensive in southeastern
Galicia, and according to officia
statements from Berlin and Vienn
have succeeded in breaking through
the Russian positions on the Zlot'
Lipa river, north and south of Bsze
zany.
Along the west part of the front
the Germans claim to be gainin!
ground but apparently they are a.
far as ever from their main endeav
or-the capture or destruction of thu
Russian army. The latter although
hard pressed at many points continue
their orderly retreat, leaving little o.
nothing that might be used by the in
vaders. Some rear guards which
were left behind with machine guns
to retard the Austro-German advance
have been overwhelmed and captured
but the guns and ammunition and
the main forces invariably have kept
out of reach of the relentless pursu
ers.
Whether the Russians will be able
to make stand in the new positions
which they are said to have prepared
the next few days should tell. There
are reports that re-incorcements are
being sent them from the East to
the western and Serbian fronts, but
military writer's express the opinion
that as long as the Russian armies
remain intact it would be dangerous
for the Austrians and Germans to de.
tach troops for operation elsewhere.
Now that the fortresses are reduced
the big guns might be moved to some
other field of operation.
This opinion apparently is born out
by the fact that there is no evidence
of German offensive in the West
while Serbian aviators are said to
have ascertained that the Austro-Ger-
man forces gathered at Orsova for a
rumored effort to force a way through
Serbia and Bulgaria to render aid to
Turkey, is not of the strength report
ed. Indeed, the Serbians express the
opinion that force is not strong en-
ough for the task which some writer's
have set it.
On the western front the activities
of the airmen continue. Six German
aviators attempted an attack on Paris
but were driven off with the loss of
one machine while the allies appar.
emily the British, threw bombs on Os.
tends, Middelkerke, and Brugs. On
the dunes at Middelkerke, the Ger.
mans have some of their most for.
midable batteries for use against at.
lacks from the sea, while at Brugs
the objective of the airmen, would be
the canal and docks which are used
extensively by the Germans for trans
port purposes. This was doubtless a
further phase of the attack of the
Belgium coast initiated by British
Warships last Tuesday.
The Balkan situation still creates
great deal of interest and conf
dence is expressed that with Serbia
showing a compromising attitude it
will be settled to the advantage OF
the entente allies. Serbia's reply tc
the allies, however, has not yet been
delivered and Bulgaria, Greece and
Roumania are holding their hands
until the contents are known.

"NATIONALLY ADVERTISED" !"

That is the phrase by which east
ern manufacturers are placing their
products on the Pacific coast.
Their wares are advertised on the
billboards. in the magazines and a
few metropolitan papers.
The merchants are loaded up with
imported merchandise on the
strength of an ad in the Saturday
Evening Post.
The other day at Salem a motor
car dealer worked half day to drive
new car up the state house steps.
He literally tore the tires off the
beautiful new machine trying to do
an impossible stunt for publicity. All
he was working for was free advertis-
ing by the press and by the camera.
He ran the chance Of running a $4,000
car to accomplish what might have
been better done in the state press
for half the price and no destruction
of property.

There are people in almost every
community who are anxious to avoid
paying the merchants a reasonable
margin on their merchandise. They
readily believe any fairy tale told
them by smooth-tongued frauds who
are entire strangers. to them. Nearly
all of these soft snaps" offered by
these fellows are swindles. The best
plan is to patronize home merchants.
They help to pay a large part of the
taxes, help support the churches, the
schools, and are citizens among us.
They are responsible for what goods
they sell, and can be found at any
time should anything be wrong or
goods not as represented.

A GREAT MAN IN HIS DAY.

The death of Senator Nelson w.
Aldrich of Rhode Island removed one
of the big men from the galaxy of
national leaders. Senator Aldrich,
next to Mark Hanna, was probably
the most powerful man when it came
to shaping legislation who ever sat
in the United States senate. Hanna
dominated because of his ability and
power as a great politician, while
Aldrich dominated because of his
wonderfully clear insight into public
questions. He welded power as the
chosen representative of great
wealth. Aldrich was the spokesman
of the big interests of America. 1t
was Senator Aldrich who wrote and
shaped the Mckinley tariff bill. Aid
rich was a great man. He represent
ed little coterie of leaders who be-
lieved the world was made for the
special benefit of the man with
money. He outlived his generation
and saw wondrous changes in public
sentiment, and he died regarding the
thought of the present day rank
heresy.
