 Helping Scholars.

BUTTE, Mont, May 6.-The 800 pupils of the High school here have gone on strike following the re- fusal of the board of education to reappoint the present principal of the school. The children have the back ing of their parents, who insist that the principal be retained because he has made good and has given a more efficient administration of the high school than has been given in years.
 The result of the fight between the children and the parents on one side, and the board of education on the other, will be watched with interest Not scholar attended the school at the afternoon session, while only few attended the morning session.
 The strike leaders have established pickets about the school building to warn scholars that strike Is on and are handling the strike as Is done by the big labor unions. Special po- lice are on duty to prevent the de- of property. but the strike committee insists that nothing will be done to in!ure the buildings.

STRONG PROTEST
 TO THE GERMANS
Will Be Made By President Wilson Regarding the Sinking of the
 Tanker GuIflight.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-President G. Wilson and the cabinet held a long session yesterday to discuss the sink. ing of the American tanker Gulflight by the Germans. The matter is the most important phase of the war trou- ble as far as this government is con. cerned.
 What course President Wilson will take is not known, but it is gener- ally expected here that his note of protest will be the strongest docu- ment yet sent from the White House and will be in the nature of an ulti- matum demanding that the rights of Americans to sail the seas shall not be interfered with by the Germans.
 The State Department has started the investigation through its consular officials in Europe, while Secretary Bryan has also called upon the Ger man government for an explanation of the sinking of the Gulflight This has not been forthcoming.

HUER1A EXPECTS STAY IN NEW YORK Says He Likes the Town and Docs Not Intend To Leave When 30
 Days Time is Up.

NEW YORK, May 6.-Gen. Huerta, former dictator of the republic of Mexico, announced today that he will make this city his home in the fu- ture and that he did not intend to leave the United States at the term- ination of the 30 days allowed him by the immigrant authorities when he was permitted to enter the coun- try.
 Just why he has decided to stay in New York is, of course, not made public. His statement that he likes the city does not satisfy the authori. ties, who continue to watch his every movement. What instructions will be sent to the immigration authorities of New York when the 30 days leave is up is unknown. Huerta landed on April 18th, and is expected to return to Spain on the 12th of May.
 It is generally believed that he will head an expedition into northern Mexico to regain control of the gov. ernment of the republic and try to establish himself at the head of dictatorship in Mexico.

JUNEAU SOON HOLD
 LIQUOR ELECTION

JUNEAU. May 6.-The order made by Judge Jennings regarding the manner of ascertaining the wishes of the people of the district regarding the granting of liquor licenses has been erroneously reported from this city. The only change made in the rules in force last year are that a secret ballot has been provided for and the vote to take place on May 24th If a majority of the residents want saloons continued the judge will issue the licenses. and if not none will be issued.
 It is claimed that a secret ballot is the only fair method to secure an ex- pression of the wishes of the peo. pie, many of whom fear a boycott if they openly express themselves as being against the liquor interests.

BRYAN INSISTS 0N
 TREATY RIGHTS
Wants Owners of American Schooner Frye Reimbursed At Once for
 Loss of Vessel.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-Secretary G. of State w. J. Bryan today notified the German ambassador that the of fer of a settlement of the claim of the owners of the American schooner Frye for the value of the boat, through an award by German prize court. has been rejected by the Unit ed States and that the United States insists upon the payment of the claim at once without expense to the own CTS of the boat and without recourse to a long legal fight in the German courts. The secretary insists that the settlement be made through the diplomatic representatives of the two countries.
 The German government had ex- pected to make the settlement after an award by the German courts, but under the terms of the note sent to Berlin today the payment must be made at once and by the German am bassador.
 The position taken by the admin istration is generally upheld by pub lie opinion here, which insists that the Germans had no right to sink the ship and detain the crew and must therefore pay for the damages. It is pointed out that the United States has even waived it's right to demand payment for the cargo, which was consigned to British port, and has tried to make it easy for Germany to settle.

It is, however, pointed out to the commission that the tips given the men brings their income far in excess of that received by men work ing as hard in any other occupation and that the raise in salary should be followed by cutting off of tips, even to the extent of making it illeg- al to tip waiter or porter on any train.

TOXIC, May 6.-The preparations for war continue in this city. In all parts of the empire the military authorities have taken charge of af- fairs. Martial law has superseded the civil authorities and troops are be- ing gathered at various points ready for embarkment for China as soon as the forty-eight hours allowed to the Chinese government to accept the demands made by Japan are up. Ev- erybody expects war. The people arc all insisting that the right of Japan 10 control the Orient be established once and for all, even if it becomes necessary to break with England and Russia, her present allies in the war against Germany, which war gave the opportunity for the opening wedge into the dismemberment of China in such a manner as to assure to Japan almost all of northern China.
 Jap Fleet Ready.
 The movements of the fleet are, of course, unknown, but it is rumored that the ships have already left Jap anese ports and are standing off Chi nese coast cities ready to lombard them the moment that the time linn. it on the ultimatum is up.
 LONDON, May 6.-The trouble be- tween China and Japan is causing the government of Great Britain much concern. It is realized that if Jap- anese demands are granted that the present interests of this country in China are doomed and that Japan will become the power of the East, to dic- tate to the balance of the nations what can and cannot be done in China.
 British Business Men for China.
 The English businessmen in Chi na are bringing every pressure to bear upon the government to protect them from Japanese aggression and are so insistent that it is generally believed here that Sir Edward Grey will direct a sharp note to Japan. Some diplomats, however, expect the British government to make only a formal protest and then when the war between the Allies and Germany Is ended, that in the settlement of peace Japan will be forced by England and Russia to let go of the hold she will have taken on China, and failing to

The Austro- German forces concentrated strong force for operations against the Rus sian right flank and have succeeded by overwhelming numbers in forcing the Russians to fall back slowly, inf1icting great damage upon the Germanic al lies as they retired for a distance of twelve miles. and now having reached the reserves the line has been strengthened and is standing against the most desperate assaults of the enemy, who are trying to break through to strike at the line of com munications of the Russian line oper- ating in the Carpathian mountains. In this they have failed completely.

 The Germans were routed in an engagement along the Donajec river today and have been pushed back towards the original line of trenches held last week.

Washington Watching Developments
 WASHINGTON, May 6.-The ti tanic struggle in Europe has been ov- ershadowed by the threatened war between Japan and China. The fact that the conflict in the East seriously affects American intersts and seems certain to bring this nation into a war with Japan is causing much ap' prehension. The administration off cials refuse to make any state ment regarding the Chinese-Japdnese trouble.
 It is well known that China bss made strong representations to the United States asking for aid to stop Japanese aggressions, which can re- suit in nothing except the con+rol of all Chinese affairs by the Japan. csc. l.
 Diplomats here assert that if the United States had navy large enough to be a menace to the Japanese that that country would never have dared to push her negotiations with China to the limit, fearing the result if the United States entered the lists as a champion of the republic. The advo. cates of a larger navy insist that had we a first-class fleet we would be con. sidered by other nations, while today all of the powers violate our rights as neutrals and pay no attention to our treaty rights or consider our in. terests.

 Russia Would Oppose Japan.
 It is we'll known that Russia would welcome conclusions again with Ja- pan and would like to re-establish herself as a powwer in Asia, while England and France will insist that the interests they now hold in the Orient shall not be disturbed by Ja- pan. With the terrible war debt now choking the life blood out of Japan it is realized that war with any one of the powers of Europe. or even with the United States, ill prepared as the republic is to engage in a conflict with the Mikados country, would bring ruin and distress upon the Japanese.
