75 TONS OF GOLD REACHES
 NEW YORK FROM ENGLAND
Special Train Bears S52O0OOO Worth of Gold and Securities The Largest Single Shipment Ever Sent Across
 the Atlantic in One Vessel

Secrecy was maintained in sending this great shipment and precautions were taken to prevent the German secret serv- ice from discovering the plan. or route of forwarding if. At Halifax it was deliv- cred into the custody of the American Express company, and when the armored and armed train left that city it was preceded hy a pilot engine for the pur- pose of testing bridges and to frustrate hny attempt to wreck the train by dyna- mite. The route over which the train proceeded from Bangor. Maine, to New York was kept secret. Secretary Robert C. Owene. vice president and general manager of the American Express com pany. said the transfer was the greatest risk ever undertaken by an express com pany.
 Eight policemen were sent to meet the train here and guard the gold until 1t arrived at the subtreasury.
 J. P. Morgan & Co were the consgnees. The purpose of the transfer of gold was understood to be to reinforce British credit here and to improve the exchange situation as the English pound sterling had deprecated, of late. The securities are presumed to be American bonds to be used as the basis for further ad- vances to the British government

SENATE COMMITTEE
 ID SUBSTITUTE THE
 EXEMPTION CLAUSE
Provision to Exempt Incom- ing Corporations During Construction Period to
 Be Favored Instead

MOntgOmery, August n.-tSpeciaID The senate committe on finance and taxation will oppose by a vote of six to five the exemption clauses of tbe revenue hill, or those under which in- coming corporations will he exempt for n period of 10 years from taxation, but will vote fRvorRbly on a substitute exemptins such cOrpo rations from tax ntioD during the period of their con struction.
 The committed was in executive ses- sion throughout the day and until 1 o'clock tonight. Before adjourning. Il Was ascertained by the committee that not q single one of it's members would oppose exempting corporations during their construction period. or the sub stitute referred to above. It is under stood that in this respect the com nlittee before reporting the bill will 80 on record.
 If is said to be true that the people 1T the Tennessee valley would prefer the bill remaining in respect to ex- emptions as 1t is, but would not oppose the proposed substitute for the reason that it might be less bitter than any other medicine the committee might serve.
 In the event the substitute is adopted the bill will have. of course, to go again through the house. and another stubborn debate might be precipitated
 The committee has completed the consideration of about 70 of the innum- orable sections of the bill, and will be ready to report It Saturday.

FOR
 STATE MILITIA IS DIVIDED BYGARR|S0N
$, 100000 to Be Given to National Guard of Coun- try-Alabama's ApprO-
 priatiOn Is Increased

Washington. August 11.-Four mil lien dollars, this years federal appro- prlation to aid the organized militia, was apportioned today by Secretary Garrison. Half of the amount is for actual field service and rifle practice and is divided among the states ac- cording to congressional representa- ton.
 Of the S2,000,000 for supplies and ammunition, $400,O00 is reserved for special allotment in emergency cases and the remainder goes to the states ed by the war department.
 Instead of making the distribution for supplies and ammunition accord ing to paper strength of the various state organizations as was done last year. MT Garrison took into consider alton actual strength at the annual in spection and the number of auxiliary branches. Every man in a field hospital and the ambulance companies was counted twice and every man in the other branches of the auxiliary serv- ices three times that these arms should receive adequate funds.
 The result of the new plan Is that New York receives for supplies and ammunition $47.000 more than last year. Illinois and Massachusetts each will receive 5000 more, Michigan and New Jersey each $S000, Connecticut s6000 Georgia, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island each $5000, Utah $4000, and New Hampshire. North Carolina Snio and Oregon each 5000.
 Texas will be the greatest loser, drawing $14.000 less than last year. Alabama will receive $S000 less. Ar kansas, Maine, Virginia, West Vir- sInia and Wyoming each $6000, Ken lucky, Louisiana, Missouri and Ten nessee each $5000. Colorado. Kansas, Nebraska. New Mexico and South Car cline each s4000, Arizona and Montana each 5000, Iowa. Minnesota, Misss sIppi, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Wisconsin $2000 each, and California, Delaware, Florida, Idaho. Indiana, North Dakota, Washington and the Dis- trict of Columbia each 5000.
 Maryland and Vermont will receive virtually the same amount as last year. Nevada, possessing no organiza- tion, will not share.

New Orleans. August 1.-The city com mission council today telegraphed a prom inent electrical construction expert in Cleveland.

BRITISH BLOCKADE IS |FLAGRANT VIOLATION
 OF NEUTRAL RIGHTS -HOKE SMITH
Georgia Senator Addresses New York Importers. Wilson Urged to Take
 Prompt Action

New York August 11.-After listen
 ing to a speech by Senator Hoke Smith
 of Georgia more than 300 New York
 importers today adopted a petition to
 President Wilson uring prompt and
 strenuous action to relieve American
 importers of conditions caused by
 Great Britains refusal to allow Ger
 man and Austrian products to be
 shipped from neutral ports to the Uni
 ted States.
 Senator Smith declared the British
 blockade was one of the most flag
 rant and inexcusable violatio of
 neutral rights in naval history.
 'I have determined the only thing
 to do." said Senator Smith, lis to tell
 Great Britain to revoke the blockade order or she can have no neutral trade with us.
 "The excuse that Great Britain seized
 vessels carrying goods produced in
 Germany or Austria CT of goods in- tended for Germany or Austria but consigned to neutral port as d re- taliatory measure against Germany ooes not make the seizure lawful. Contention Not Justified "There is no Justification for the second contention that the British were justified in their action because the United States had violated Great Brit aims rights during the civil war. The United States never committed an act nor did our courts ever write line that justified the British action. Senator Smith declared that during tine Russo-J Japanese war Great Britain asserted the right of India to ship cotf ton to Japan. He further declared that the British first placed cotton on the list of articles that were not to be ciassed as contra band.
 As contention that rulings by the United States supreme court on inter- ma tional law did not Justify Great Brit ain in establishing the blockade, Sem ator Smith discussed the Bermuda and Peterhof or Matamoros case, which arose during the civil war. In the lat ter case he noted the ruling of the court which held that although the (Continued on Page Three)

Attack Turk Batteries

London, August 11-Following successes of the troops on the Krithia road and those north of the 'Anzar" zone. the Aus tralans and New Zealanders took the of fensive yesterday and trebeled the area they. formerly held. The comrades to the north, who assisted them, made no further progress, however.
 Simultaneously the French battleship St Louis attacked Turkish batteries on the Asatio side of the straits, which had been bombarding the allied positions on the peninsula, and put five guns out of com mission These actions are believed here to be preliminary to a much more ambi- tious attempt by the Anglo French com manders to sweep the Turks before them Heavy losses which already have been inflicted on the Turks have discouraged tho ottomans. according to Greek reports.
 On the eastern front Kovno is the dan ger point in the Russian line The grand duke apparently has arrested the German offensive against Riga and Dvnsk, But is hard pressed on the Kovno front at which the Germans are attacking with guns of all calibres. including the famous 16-inch cannon.
 Little has happened in the west ex- cept the usual artillery engagements.
 Eighteen Vessels Sunk
 German submarines in the last three days have sunk IS vessels, four of them owned in neutral countries The British patrol boat Ramsey has been sunk by the German auxiliary cruiser Meteor in the North sea. The Meteor's commander, realizing that escape from pursuing Brit ish vessels was impossible abandoned his ship and blew her up. The Meteor ap- parently was the Hamburg American com panv steamer of that name, vessel of 9ol6 tons. There have been frequent re- ports today of firing off Helgoland.
 Negotiations with the Balkan states in an effort to bring them into the war are without further developments
