CHICAGO. August 6.--The resig-

penitentiary. whose wife was recent
~ murdered inside the prison walls.
was accepted today by Governor
Dunno. Allen when informed that
his resignation had been accepted de-
clared that it was hard to give up his
homer system work. but said he was
unable to sleep behind the prison
walls where his wife had been SO
brutally murdered.
The resignation followed the gov
ernor's refusal TO allow the wardeE,
to continue his service and live out
side the prison walls. Allen wanted
to live in Chicago and transact his
business by travelling back and forth
between here and Joliet The gov
ernor held that this arrangement
would be impossible because the stat
utes provide that the warden must re-
side in the prison. Alluding to Allen S
honor system the governor at Spring
field took credit for instituting the
system.

THAT MOVE Will RE.

Some Relieve the Kaiser viii Next
Try Campaign Against Caiias
or Paris-The Political
Aspect

LONDON. August "a popular
guess among military experts here
today is that Germany's next move
will be TO hurl all OF her available
forces against Paris or make an ef-
fort to reach Calias They admitted
that the fall of Warsaw will have a
vast influence on the fighting for the
next six months and possibly on the
political fortunes OF the allies.
At leas one million Austro-Ger-
man troops have been released for
fall of Warsaw.
II is also believed that instead cf
making a drive on Paris or Calias
the kaiser viii join the Austrians in
their struggle against Italy or make
an effort 10 crush Servia. Some Lon
don experts. notably in the minority.
suggested that the Germans intend
trying to advance TO Petrograd along
the Odessa railway. The capture of
Warsaw is generally minimized,
though IL is admitted that the blow
will prevent Russia from resuming
q new offensive for some time &c
come.
The political aspect. particularly
it's effect on the waverins balkan
states, was stressed

WASHINGTON, Aug. e.The
Latin American conferees on the
Mexican situation were reported To-
day 10 be unanimous IN agreement
10 recognize Carranxa II Ne viii
agree 10 call an election within =
stated period and eliminate hin1-
self entirely as : candidate. Tho
report was widely current and Een-
orally believed. 1t was said. tan.
that they have agreed that Carrnn-
IA must either be recognized Or
fought. Some OF those present ~
yesterday afternoons conferences *
the state department are said 70
have expressed the opinion that
neither the first chief nor any or
the factional leaders were suitabl9
for provisional president. and that
the sooner force In used in favor 0f
another candidate the sooner will
Mexico's troubles be composed.
Daily meetings will be held until
course OF action II decided upon
and then the diplomats will submit
same to their governments After that
there will be an adjournment until
after the various capitals have been
heard from which viii probably taks
several days.
As a final step the endorsement
of the other Latin American repub-
lies will be sought. The action that
follows will be preceded by last aD-
peal to the Mexican factions to sink
their differences and establish with
cut outside interference a provisional
government which the world can
recognize until the regular election
can be held and constitutional re-
gime installed
Failing in this all that remains
will be to recognize the strongest
man the conferees can find. This
will probably be Carranza or vasquex
Tagle. on whom all the anti-Car-
rama factions seem to be agreed.
