 ABOUT ARABIC
[ ssocIArEp PRESS ptsrArcnl

BERLIN, Sept. 11.-JameS Gerard, American ambassador to Germany. called on Count von Jagow, the foreign minister. presumably in connection with the situation surrounding the sinking of the Arabic by a submarine and the opening of negotiations on the submarine problem. Differences of viewpoints. which were stiffened when laid down ;n formal notes. can be easily adjusted in informal conver- sations because of the fundamental differences of policy have largely dis appeared under the new instructions regarding attacks on passenger steam CTS. officials believe.
 The United States and Germany. it is declared. appear now in substantial agreement on the principle involved. and il is now largely a question of adjusting cases like the Arabic in cor fornity with the principle. Germany is ready to consider testimony on the point of how far the captain of the submarine was justified in the belief that the Arabic was bent on attacking the su uDmarine. She will have an op- portunity of satisfying America that her policy and practice under present conditions will harmonizc in the future.

BROWNSVILLE. Sept. 17-American cavalrymen had two fights with MeXi- cans across the Rio Grande, one here and one near Donna. In both clashes the American soldiers were fired on and returned the fire without casual ties The Donna fight lasted two hours and half and the cavalrymen fired on about five hundred MeXicans. Seven teen Mexicans are believed to have been wounded
 Twenty American cavalrymen fought on k outskirts of Brownsville half an hour with Mexicans on the opposite bank of the river After the fight one Carranza soldier was taken to Mata- moroas fatally injured. Tonight Car ranza officers denied that their men were involved. An investigation is be- ing made After the battle, a mob formed in Matamoras at the headquar- ters of General Nararrate shouting. Give us guns"
 They had heard shots and were ang- cred by reports that their people had been fired upon. United States Consul Johnson found evidence to support the claim that Carranza soldiers were not implicated in the fight
 The trouble began when q Mexican resident of Brownsville reported That snipers on the Mexican side had been shooting up his ranch. Lieutenant Glass was sent to investigate Half a dozen rifles opened fire on him and his men. Glass replying with his pistol while his men opened fire on the Mex jeans. The MeXicans were seen to run to cover.
 Glass stepped from cover and sig mailing he wished to talk, asked what the firing by the Mexicans meant.
 An officer replied:
 They were only irresponsible pela- dos
 Then the officers, using their swords and whips were seen to drive some of the men away from the levee.
 Near Donna two men of the Twelfth cavalry were fired on by MexicanS across the river. Ten other men of the Twelfth under Lieutenant Holiday were sent to investigate. They were also fired upon and returned the fire

SUPREME COURT D|SM|SsES
 V|LLAL0b0'S HARDY APPEAL

Holding that the contentious urged in it's favor were entirely frivolous, the supreme court yesterday dismissed the appeal of Ramon ViiIalobos, one of the Mexican mUrderers awaiting execution at Florence. In a per curiam opinion filed the court stated that there was no appeal, but only a pre- tended appeal and that the court therefore acquired no Jurisdiction. Villalobo, who was sentenced to hang on May 2S, will be resentenced in the superior court of Pinal county.
 Referring to the appeal the supreme court says in part: This pretended appeal is from the final judgment of conviction. The law of this state provides that an appeal in such cases must be taken within sixty days after the rendition of such judgment. The record here presented shows that no effort was made to take an appeal until more than seven months had elapsed after said final judgment of conviction.
 The right to appeal is purely a creature of the statute, and where an appeal is not taken within the time prescribed by the law this court of course acquires no jurisdiction. and the judgment of the lower court becomes final and conclusive. This is so we'll

LOAN ENVOyS AT ODDS WITH
 BIG BANKERS
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-The Anglo French financial commissioners, seek ing to establish a mammoth credit loan, are reported at odds with the American financiers expected to sup ply the money over the question of including munitions among the CX- ports to be paid for by the proceeds of the loan. Their views are diamet- rically opposed.
 Their attitude is that the credit, whether one billion or less, would pro vide funds for all exports, munitions certainly to be included. some of the American bankers agree, but many said, in their opinion, the loan should cover onlv~ commodity exports and an - other method being found for paying for munitions even if that method in wolves the shipment of huge sums of gold across the Atlantic.

RUSSIANS SAY GAN HOLD
 WILMA LONG AS NECESSARY

Russian staff to defend Wilma at all costs, but "onIy as long as the pres ence of the army there does not inspire alarm."
 The Russian forces at that point do not appear in imminent danger notwithstanding the fact that Ger man operations flanking Wilma have been carried forward farther and that the German cavalry is driving for the railway between Molodechno and Polotsk. fine situation in that region is described as favorable.
 The cavalry holds a front 120 miles long, in the form of a great bow bending to the east. The German cavalry is pushing along the railway from Svientsyany to Gueoki- The invaders are spreading out on both sides of the road attempting to cut the Molodechno-PO POiotsk line in sev eral places. This does not threaten the Russian retreat as the railroad running southeast from Wilma to Minsk is strongly covered by Russian forces.
 It is pointed out that the favor able aspect of the position at Wilma of the Russians is shown further by the fact that they continue to mair : tain positions to the westward in he direction or Orani.

b|G DEMAND SHORT CROP

Cotton Situation Not at All Bad, Says E. Taylor of Galveston-Long Staple Will Be Valleys Major Crop. He Predicts.

The United States will run way short of cotton this year. and grow CTS ought to get good prices said T.. Taylor prominent cotton buyer of Galveston, Texas, who spent yes terday in the valley looking over crop prospects. The total produc-
 tIon this year will be little over twelve million bales. and the home demand will use up six and a half million bales"
 There is no depression in the south. over the cotton situation. It
 has been commonly reported of late that the southern states were feeling
 the effects of the- declaration of con- trahaEd on cotton eXoorts by the al-
 lies. This is not true according to
 the visitor. Germany will want u great deal of our cotton crop next year. Buyers representing German
 interests will store great quantities in this country, until trade lanes are re-opened. or will manage the export somehow.
 Texas has cut down it's acreage as have all other cotton producing sections. North Texas, which is our chief cotton production center, re- duced it's acreage thirty per cent, and as the grain crop substitute came in early the ranchers got good money. Here, I understand the grain crop did not come up to ex-
 pectations
 Organization is the only thirg
 that can help the ranchers get good
 prices. They must pull together, and
 work to keep the market firm. I : like the cotton association idea Let your planters hold their output. un- til the exchanges are right before
 selling. If anybody gets short of
 money. let the association advance the cash. Cotton is a safe crop, and
 can stand such advances.
 You have the climate and the water, and no matter what the inn
 rression is now, Salt River valley is some day going to produce cotton.
 It will be your major crop, I think. My advice is to watch the markets. keep well organized, and STAY WITH THE LONG STAPLE cor TON. Prices for extra staple cotton are always gonig to be in advance of those of short staple cotton By keeping your crop pure. preventing mixture of seed, etc, planters will { reap Q reward far greater than they know.

Speakers at International Irrigation Congress Point Out Dangers of Water Not Used Along Intelli- gent Lines.
UNDERCONSUMPTION
 USE OF LOSSES
Farmers Are Urged to to Measure Amount of Water Applied to Land and Keep Careful Data as to Crops Grown.

SACRAMENTO. Sept. 17.-Speakers at the International Irrigation Congress pointed out that every tract of land presents it's own problems. Land may be ruined by irrigation and crops in jured ii control of the water is not used along intelligent lines. Undercon- sumption is responsible for unsold and unprofitable crops and not over pro- duction, said the speakers.
 Prof. Bowers of the Oregon Agricul- tural College urged farmers to meas Ure the amount of water applied and keep careful data as to the crops grown under varying conditions so as to de- terTnine the amount of water to be ap- piled to secure the maximum economic efficiency per acre inch and not the maximum crop. They were warned against over irrigation with the danger of waterlogging lands.

PAPER TAKES AMERICA

ASSOCIATED PRESS D1srArcHl


 BERLIN. Sept. I7.-Under the head ing. Freedom Of the Seas" the Roer- sen Zeitung takes America to task for her attitude with regard tn submarine warfare. It is a remarkable coinci- dence. the newspaper says. that two nations which are apparently striving for the same goal should become in- volved in serious differences of opin- ion"
 The article continues:
 America based her protest against German naval warfare on the conten- tion that she. as the most important neural has a commission to fight with all her srength for the freedom of the seas. Germany desires the same thing That is. she is contending against kngland's arrogant claim to naval su- premaCy Since her naval forces do not match .Yrita in's, she ha to resort to neN. and unusual means of sub marine Warfare. in order to counter act the British activities in suppress ing not only German trade but the trade of neutrals.
