It is Understanding He Will Re- ject Proposal for Peace Con- ference and Will Urge Upon
 Recognition by Latin-America

Washington, Aug. 17.-General Carranza, within few days, will re- ply to the Pan-American appeal to Mexico, it was learned here tonight. He will reject the peace conference proposal sent by Secretary Lansing and tn Latin American diplomats, and it is reported will suggest that the conferees use their influence to obtain recognition for his government from their respective rpublics.
 According to his friends here Car ranza appreciated the friendly tone of the Pan-American appeal. He has consulted his civil and military as- sistants regarding it, and has com municated with Eliseo Arredondo, his Washington representative and other agents of his in the United States. As result of these conferences it is declared the general has determined to make courteous reply, giving in detail his reason for rejecting the con- ference plan and advancing argu- ments in an effort to convince the conferees that recognition of the Car ranza government is warranted and necessary for the reestablishment of peace in Mexico.
 That some of the Latin American diplomats already have been apprais- ed of Carrenza's probable course has been reported here. It is known that Mr. Arredondo conferred in Philadel- phia yesterday with Eduardo Suarez, Chilean ambassador to the United States and one of the Pan-American conferees. Details of the meeting were not disclosed, but MT. Arredondo is said to have submitted informally some suggestions regarding the pres ent strength of the Carranza cause.
 No formal replies to the peace ap- peals have reached the state depart ment from th4 Mexican leaders. De- partment officials said they have no reason to believe that the document addressed to General Zapata has been delivered to him.
 Quiet prevailed along the Mexican border so ia ras the war depart ment reports indicated. Some anxie- ty for Americans in eVra Cruz is felt again, however because of the circulation of placards there contain ing high infammable" language, and protesting against interference in Mexican affairs.
 Secretary Daniels said the battle ships Louisiana and New Hampshire would reach Vera Cruz tomorrow morning.

likes upon any given question:" J. M, Nall, a Grant county farmer, has made known through his friends that he may decide to aspire to the gover- norship, and that he will especially advocate good roads and Legislation to advance the interests of the farm er. Former State Senator J. !. Mar dis of Harrisburg, may decide to enter on statewide prohibition platform and it is announced that he will decide upon his coure in few days. Rep resentative Monroe Smith of Ashley county, a member of the Special h. vestigatinC Committee that has been so much in the limelight here the last few months is quoted that he 'wiuld like to have a chance to tell the people some things he knows" that he probably discovered while auditing the various offices, and in order to do so that he may decide to enter the race for governor.
 Among those who have been more prominently mentioned for some time as prospectives, and who are still de- laying an announcement of their in tentions, are Gov. Hays, Judge A. J. Malls, and Congressman T. H. Cara way. Any one or all three of these may be expected any time to enter the running, and it is not at all i'm possible that there will be as many as twelve candidates. This will be the largest number that has ever of fered in any campaign in the state and such a scrambling as there will be has never before been witnessed.
 It is interesting to conjecture the cause for such a condition. Each cit izen may explain it as he pleases, but probably one of the most obvious eX- plantations would not be compliment tary to the opinion of those who have always placed the office of governor upon a pedestal of dignity and honor. Or is it because we are becoming more truely democratic?
 It is also interesting to note that occasionally men whose names get mentioned sometimes finally decide that they will continue in private life They will have more money and fewer heartaches, and a better opinion or their fellow-men after next March than eight or ten of those who sue cumb to the seductive sirens of poll tical ambition. There was Senator Futrell. who said that one reason he would not run is that the campaigns are too expensive. Then former State Senator Ben Harris of Poinsett, whose name had some time been casually mentioned, who said that he had no intention of running for governor. And Associate Justice Kirby, who said that he is saving his ammunition for the United States Senate. And J. Sam Rowland. who declared there Is no state office he would have, unless it is prosecuting attorney or Congress- man.

 nallas. Tex, Aug. 17.-Galyeston again has felt the heavy brunt of a troncal hurricane, and has paid dear lv in property damage, if not the loss of lives. The latest word from the stricken city, a wireless message from the United States army transport Bu- ford in Galveston, to the army aerial station at Fort Sam Houston, San An tonia, told of wharves torn away, craft demolished and vessels swept out of anchorage and left high and |dry.
 This still leaves unanswered the question whether Galveston has suf- fered loss of lives. It merely says that the number of lives lost is un- known.

REPORTS D n
VIOLATIONS
FRENCH CLAIM PRISONERS OF
WAR USED TO SHIELD TROOPS
-INvEsTlGATiONS INTO ACTS
OF GERMAN SOLDIERS.

Paris, Aug. 3.-The commission
presided over by Georges Payelle, the
president of the French court of ac-
counts, has presented to Premier Viv.
iani the final report of its investiga-
tions into acts on the part of German
soldiers in violation of the rights of
man.
This report contains 1900 words
and gives in detail the evidence gath
cred concerning the use by German
troops of military and civilian prison
ers as shields against the fire of the
French troops, as well as of the EN-
ployment by the troops of Emperor
William, of cartridges in which the
bullets were reversed, in order to
cause more serious wounds, split bull
let's and other bullets, cut to make
them more rending.
Continuing the report cites orders
given by General Stenger, commander
of the Fifty Eighth German Brigade,
directing his soldiers to kill the wound
ed enemy and to take no more pris-
oners. Evidence confirming the issu-
ing and the circulation of this order
was obtained from German prisoners
belonging to the Eleventh and One
Hundred and Forty-Second regiments
The report contains also evidence of
the massacre of French soldiers as
a result of this order, as well as the
massacre of wounded men after the
battle of Fethe, in Belgium. 1t repre-
sents the allegations of many indiyidu-
al soldiers, who declare they saw
their wounded comrades put to death.
Claim Prisoners Assassinated.
The report devotes considerable
space to allegations of the inhumanity
of the Germans to their prisoners OF
war. That many prisoners OF war
have been shot, while the skulls of
others were crushed by blows from
the butt of a musket, and that at
st. Die, thirty French prisoners were
assassinated in this manner by Ba-
varian troops. was vouched for by
five men. who witnessed the execution.
Other men declared they had found
the dead bodies of a French patrol
numbering seven men, an infantry cor
poral and six privates, with their
hands tied behind their backs and
dead from rifle shots.
Capture of Surgeons Alleged
The report concludes with three col
umns of evidence to prove the bonn
harding of ambulances by the Ger
mans; the firing upon stretcher bear
ers. and the capture of surgeons. In
some cases, it is set forth, French sur
geons were arrested by German sur
geons. and by them sent to the rear
TO be interned.
Several cases are cited in which
German wounded, succored by French
men, are alleged to have taken the
opportunity to kill those going to their
relief.

FRAT MEN BARRED
FROM CENTRAL TEAM
Basketball Players and Argus
Staff Members Forced
to Resign

City school authorities mean busi-
ness in enforcing the rule preventing
students of the high school who be-
long to fraternities from holding an
office or representing the school or
ganizations in any manner.
This fact was proved recently when
IL was learned that several seniors at
the Central high school who held po-
sitlons on various school organizations
were taken from their offices.
Samuel Froelich, former manager of
the basketball team. was one of the
boys removed by the school authori-
ties. Harold McNamee, assistant. was
chosen to fill his place and is now the
manager of the team. Froelich also
was social editor on the High school
Argus staff. He has also resigned
from this position. Edward Roth,
prominent in athletics during his
school life and sporting editor of the
Argus, also was taken off the staff.
Walter Smeltzer, prominent in athletic
and class circles, another one of the
students. will not be O. KID as a cam
didate for any class office.
This morning ii was rumored at the
school that Karl E. Peters, editor-in-
chief. and George Fox, observation
editor, had resigned as an outgrowth
Of the frat trouble. Fox stated

1t was said. however. that he had con-
sidered giving up the position.

County Judge II. II. Denhardt, the de-
