DR.. DERNBURG DECIDES
TO LEAVE THIS COUNTRY
Voluntary Action Follows Express.
ed Displeasure With His Recent
Public Utterances.

DR.. Bernhard Dernburg, often referred
to as the unofficial spokesman of En-
peror William in the United States, has
made plans to, leave the country of his
own initiative within a short time.
1t became known in official quarters
here today that In view of the intima- !
tions that President Wilson and the
cabinet were displeased with DR.. Dern-
burg's speeches justifying the sinking
OF the Lusitania, and some of his other
public utterances which they believed
might be calculated to array sentiment
Of Germans in the United States against
the Washington government. friends OF
DR.. Dernburg here have persuaded him
to leave the United States.
His Probable Destination.
Just when DR.. Dernburg would leave
or where he would go was not made
known. but 1t was believed he would
sail for Cuba or South America
DR.. Dernburg's activity in the United
States since the beginning of the war
has been closely observed by the Presi-
dent and other high officials here, who
came to believe in the last week that
continuation of his speeches and
statements might. in the event OF a
critical turn in relations with Germany,
menace the domestic welfare Of Amer
lea
1t has been repeatedly denied by the
German embassy as well as by DR..
Dernburg himself that he was a
spokesman for the German government
or that he had any official status In
view. however. of the fact that DR..
Dernburg was former colonial secre-
tary in the German foreign office and
has become prominently active in be-
half of the German cause since the
lieve. that German Americans attach
official weight to his utterances
Statement by DR.. Dernburg.
DR. Dernburg himself issued state
ment last night declaring he had never
discussed matters that had arisen
automatically between the United
States and Germany
officials here made no comment on
that beyond pointing to Dr. Dernburgs
utterances in Cleveland and New York
recently seeking to justify the attack
on the Lusitania.
At the German embassy il was learned
that DR.. Dernburg himself had ex-
pressed the wish to leave the country.
Embassy officials made it very plain
that the action was voluntary on his
part. The question of his departure
depends upon securing assurances
from the British and French, through
the mediation of the State Department
for his immunity from detention on
the high seas.
DR.. Dernburg Refuses to Comment.
NEW YORK. May 15.-Dr. Bernhard

would soon leave the country of his
own initiative. Remaining secluded in
his apartments here. he refused to see
newspaper representatives. In answer
to note incloSing copy of the Wash

MILLION DOLLAR LOSS TO MISSOURI'S CROPS;
 SEVEN REPORTED DEAD

St. Louis, July S.-Reports today from eastern Missouri, which was show that seven persons were killed and several score injured and that three are missing. The damage to Buildings and crops is estimated at between $500, 900 and $1,00o,00o. One of the remarkable features of the tor nadp was the small number of deaths considering the nature of the prop erty damage.I
 Forty of the sixty buildings which formed the town of St. Peters were blown to fragments but only a few slight injuries were reported from that place.
 Gilmore, Mo-, was nearly wiped out yet only one man was found dead there. Between Gilmore and Wentz- vile a Wabash passenger train cross ed the path Of the storm and the first four coaches in the train were neatly picked up by the wind and laid to one side of the right of way. Not a accident. Those In the dtbched cars ran back to the five messenger coaches left standing on the track. these were coupled to the tender and the train proceeded on it's Journey
 Two miles west of OsFal1on the wind lifted a buggy off the road, car ried it with horse and three occupants through the air for 300 yards and then ruled it to the ground. Daniel Minor. the driver, escaped with a few bruises but his wife and one child were killed.
 At Dardenne, Mo. Mrs. Thomas Flaherty and her two children were killed. Fifty other homes in this town were reduced to spIinters and piles of brick.
 At WentzviIfe, Mo, Mrs Herman OberIind was killed and at Gilmore the body of Frank Kunz1e was found on the railroad station platform af- ter the storm.
 At St. Charles, the entire central portion of the city. including more than 100 residences. was destroyed bodies of a. woman and two small children who took refuge in the St Charles Borrenneo CathItc church a few minutes before it was razed b3 the wind. It is supposed they per ished. The church was built in 1862 lat cost of $1O0,000.
 The property damage in St. Charles alone it is believed, will aggregate nearly a half million dollars The St. Louis counties is estimated al more than $100, ,000-
 A dozenS towns in these counties were isolated lase night as miles up, on miles of telephone and telegraph Ewires were on the ground a tangled tmass-
 From St Charles the tornado swerved across the Missouri and Nils EsississIppf rivers into Illinois. There bursts at Rock Island and Mounds near Cairo in the extreme southern part. The business sections of botT these towns were flooded.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1915-07-08

Between 20 and 30 New England cities have adopted such laws and the Iaboring people are not complaining of hardships on account of them. If Bridgeport wants to take the lead which is so often spoken of and is now her privilege. she has great opportunity, and the eyes of the ma ton are watching to see how well she will rise to meet it. It will be a great set back to the city if selfish interests are allowed to check the movement toward good living condi- tions. It will tend to keep factories away and will prevent the investment of hundreds of thousands of dollars of outside capital, which have been oqered to help meet the building needs if proper, safeguards against fire are established"

FIFTY DIE
 IN STORM
Continued from Page I


 Telegraph and telephone service was prostrated for several hours, railroad and interurban traffic was delayed by washouts and debris on the tracks. The storm continued for about 30 minutes during which rain came down in binding sheets. The storm had not entirely ceased when the fire depart ment police patrols and amOulances were called out by alarms from all parts of the city. They found that the greatest havoc was wrought at Sixth and Mound streets, where five buildings in one block had been deTnoI- ished.- Fsdvercraft also suffered severe 1y. The towboat Convoy, which left Cincinnati for down river points short ly before the storm broke, struck a pier of the Southern Railway bridge and sank Of the crew of 24 men, 18 are believed to have been drowned
 Rescue work was still proceeding early today The plant of the Western Union Telegraph company on the 18th floor of the IngalIs building was pros trated. Windows were blown ins ad- rnitttng the rain in such volume as to flood the office, rendering useless the dynanos and other equipment A Temporary panic 4ensued among the employees but none was injured
 Several freight cars on the Penn l sylvania Railroad were overturned at Terrace Park. Two of the cars con- tained valuable running horses. The animals stampeded and many of them were so badly injured that they had to be shot.
