London.-The British feet did not
escape unscathed in the naval battle
on the North Sea. The battle cruiser
Lion, which led the British squadron
into battle, and the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Meteor were both disabled
and had to be towed into port, and,
in addition, one officer and thirteen
men were killed and three officers and
twenty-six men wounded on three of
the ships, the Lion, Tiger and Me-
teor.
This information is contained in an
Admiralty statement. The statement
denies German reports that one Brit
ish cruiser and two torpedo boat de-
stroyers were sunk, by saying that all
the British ships engaged in the action
have returned in safety to port. The
Admiralty statement is as follows:
"All the British ships and torpedo
boat destroyers engaged in Sundays
action have returned in safety to port.
"The Lion, which had some of her
forward compartments flooded by
shells below the water line, was taken
in tow by the cruiser Indomitable. The
destroyer Meteor, which also was dis
abled, was taken in tow by the de.
stroyer Liberty. Both vessels were
guarded by strong escorts of destroy
ers. Repairs to both vessels can be
speedily effected.
British Lost Forty-one Men.
"The total number of casualties
among the officers and men reported
to the Admiralty is: On the Lion,
seventeen men wounded; on the Tiger,
one officer and nine men killed and
three officers and eight men wounded,
and on the Meteor, four men killed
and one mar wounded"

LEGISLATURE GETS BUSY.
Twentyfcur Measures Are Advanced
to Second Reading.

TO Second Reading.
What might be termed the first real
business session of the 1915 House of
Assembly was held when, following
a morning filed with committee SEES
sions, twenty-seVen bills previously in
troduced were reported out Of com
mittee, twenty-four Of them placed on
second reading and three passed.
A resolution from the judiciary com.
mittee to appoint a committee Of four
to investigate the strike trouble at
Roosevelt was unanimously adopted.
The three bills passed were House
Bill No. % (Stevens), which permits
boards Of freeholders to expend money
for advertising the advantages Of their
counties; House Bill No. 140, intro
duced by Minority Leader Martin, and
which provides for the payment of a
salary OF $500 yearly to Azariah
Beekman, former speaker of the House
who was appointed State examiner of
bills at the last Legislature, but who
by defect in the act creating the posi-
ton was deprived of the privilege of
drawing salary until action was taken.
A week ago Assemblyman Hates, of
Camden, tried to have the House pass
this bill under a suspension of the
rules, but was opposed by Mr.. Martin.
who made a successful fight against
the suspension Of the rules even
though his bill was involved, declar-
ing that it was too early in the ses-
sion for bills to be passed under rule
suspension.
The third bill passed was one intro
duced by Stevens, of Cape May Coun.
ty, and was given speedy passage af.
ter Mr.. Stevens had explained that
the bill was one that affected the coast
towns only, in that it allowed them
to raise funds from their own resourc
es to construct bulkheads for protec.
ton from storms.

Suffrage War On.

Naf OIH
Four hours were devoted by the SEN
ate and House Judiciary committees
to a public hearing on the question
of the woman suffrage amendment to
the Constitution. Remarks from the
various speakers, both for and against
the proposition, elected much ap-
plause from the crowd, numbering
about 1000, which occupied both the
gallery and floor of the House of AS
sembly, where the hearing was con-
Quoted. DR.. Anna Howard Shaw, ma
tional head of the suffragists, and Mrs.
Orville D. Oliphant Of this city, State
lecturer for the Association Opposed
to Woman Suffrage, led the debate
for their respective sides.
This was the third hearing given in
three years on the measure and as
last years debate was more spirited
than the first, Senator Read of Cam
den, chairman of the Senate Judiciary
Committee, asked that no PERSONAL
ties be allowed to creep into the ar
gument this time. He told the speak
ers, 1--WE want no scars left as the
result of this hearing"
Cites Wilson's Attitude.
DR.. Shaw made the principal ad-
dress for the ~suffragists. She called
attention to President Wilson's view
that the suffrage question was a State
matter and said that the President
preferred the States to settle the mat
ter for themselves. She argued that
the proposition of amendming the
Constitution should be submitted to
the voters of the State for their ap-
prevail or rejection, as the Constitu-
ton prescribes. whichever way it
goes it will rest for a season." she
said. The State, she continued, must
decide whether it shall be a Democrat
ic government or an a~ristocracy.

MYERS No LONGER
PASTOR EVANGELIST
Is. Decided at Special Meeting Of
Bismarck Presbytery in
Mandan

AS the result of action taken Tues
day afternoon the services OF Rev.
Mr.. Meyers, pastor-evangelist, who
has made Bismarck his headquarters,
have been dispensed with and he is
free to seek a new charge.
The special meeting of the Bismarck
Presbytery met in the Presbyterian
church at Mandan, the purpose of the
meeting being to reconsider the ac-
ton taken at the adjourned meeting
held at New Salem in the early part
Of July. TO understand the situation
clearly it is necessary to go back for
a year or so. For some time there
has been ar effort to have all the
home mission work of the ~Presbyter-
ian church in this state fought under
a central head. Under the old system
the home mission work of each Pres
bytery has been overSeen directly by
that Presbytery. each Presbytery ap-
pointing a minister to that particular
work, and having the title of pastor
evangelist, said pastor-evangelist be-
ing Immediately under the supervision
cf he committee Ct Presb.2tc'y ap-
pointed each half year and known as
the home mission committee. The
with the pastorevangelist, oversee the
granting of funds to the different
fields needing aid, and make recon-
mendations to Presbytery. The final
power being vested in the Presbytery.
For the past three years there has
been an effort made to change this
system. At the annual meetings OF
Synod (The Synod represents the
churches of the stat,,) held at Grand
Forks in 1912, Langdon, 1918, and Lis;
bon, 1914. the matter has been keen
ly debated. Those advocating the
change stated that it would mean a
saving CT money. and of men, and a
more comprehensive knowledge of the
needs Of the home mission work OF
the state and therefore greatly to be
desired. Briefly, the plan suggested
was that instead of each Presbytery
employing the field men that the pow
er to do so be given over to the Sy-
mods committee, and that the mum
Der of the men be reduced.
However, the matter was settled
at the last meeting of Synod at Lis
bon, 1914. The new plan carried by a
majority and the Synod's home mis-
sion committee authorized to select a
superintendent of missions and report
at the next meeting of Synod which
meets in Bismarck next month.
Consequently a special meeting was
called to reconsider the action taken
at New Salem, and at the meeting
held in Mandan Tuesday, it was res.
cinded by the unanimous vote Of those
present.
