FOR PRIMARIES
IS UNDER WAY
Those Who Failed to Vote at
Last General Election
Should Sign.
600 ELECTION OFFICERS
ARE GIVEN INSTRUCTIONS
Representatives from Nearly
Every District in County
Visit Court House.

Today was the first registration day
for the primaries and the special and
general elections All those who
failed to vote in the general election
last year and who exnect to vote IN
this years primary will have to reg
ister today. Those who voted at the
last general election will not have to
register to vote in the primary. but
will have to register either today or
on another of the registration days
to vote in the coming general cleo
tion.
Instructions regarding the duties of
election officers on registration, pri-
mary and election days were deliv
cred to more than 900 officers at the
court house last night by DR.. Watson
Rodemann, clerk of the County Board
of Elections. Practically every cleo
tion district In the county had at
least one representative present at
the lecture.
The registry places will open from
l o'clock to g. The use of the various
tally sheets, registry lists and poll
books was explained In detail by DR..
Rodemann last night. After he had
finished his talk he answered many
questions put by the officers, a large
number of whom have never served
before. The idea of instructing the
officers was thought of last year and
a series of three lectures given. This
year it was decided to summon all of
the 1878 officers in the county on the
one night.
The large Common Pleas Court
room on the second floor of the Court
House was used as a lecture room
Every seat In the room was taken,
the aisles and other places of vantage
were occupied and men even sat upon
the steps of the bench from which
the clerk talked. The courtroom
doors were kept open SO that large
crowd in the corridor could hear.
All of the necessary stationery for
the registration, primary and general
election days have been distributed by
the county clerk, according to his dep
uty, George L. Mahr. Mr. Mahr is
now preparing for the distribution of
the forms for the special election on
October 25.
Samples of the ballot to be used
were received by the country clerk
from the secretary of state yesterday
The ballot has three columns, the first
the proposed amendment to
the constitution enfranchising women,
the second ths proposed law to change
the manner of amending the consti-
tuition, and the third the proposed law
allowing the State, or its political
subdivisions, the right to condemn
land in excess of that actually needed

LENOx, Mass. Sept 1.-THE Aus
tro- Hungarian ambassador. DIR. Con-
stantin T. Dumba, today announced
that he had requested his foreign Of
flee to recall him on leave of absence
in order that he might make per-
sonal report on the situation in the
United States which resulted in a re-
quest by the United States govern
ment for his recall.
In authorizing the Associated Press
to make the above announcement, DIR.
Dumba expressed indignation that the
text of his message to the Austro-
Hungarian minister of foreign af-
fairs, Baron Won Burian, already had
become public without his consent or
knowledge.
In view of the situation" he said he
probably would not make public the
statement of his position which he had
in mind to give to the American press.
He would, however. have something
to sa ythrough the Austrian press
when he reached Vienna. He declared
he had communicated with his gov
ernment in the only way open to him
and was. much embarrassed because
his message was known in this coun-
try before 1T reached the only person
for whom 1t was intended.
DR.. Dumba added that he could not
tell exactly when he would leave this
country, but preparations for steam
ship accommodations were now being
made through New York agents. Mrs.
Dumba will leave Lenox tomorrow
for Washington, where she plans to
stay about week. Then she will
rejoin the ambassador at New York
and they will sail as soon as possible.
Passage will be obtained on a Dutch
or Norwegian steamer.

As Grave a Problem as
Submarine Controversy,
Is Forecast.
WASHINGTON WATCHES
MOVES OF FINANCIERS
$1,000, 100000 Bond Issue
Without Collateral Regarded
as Violation of Neutrality.

WASHINGTON, Sept. "A por-
tentous new complication was in
jected today into Americas interna-
tional relations.
Shall the United States government
become banker for the allies?"
This was the question raised by
the proposal from the Anglo French
Banking Commission, in conference
with New York financiers over the
plan to borrow $1,000, 600 900 in the
United States on straight British and
French government bonds without
any collateral whatever 1t was an
issue which, in administration circles,
was looked on as ranking in import
ance almost If not quite in the class
with the submarine controversy.
Thetwo questions ewre inter-releted,
That Germany and Austria might
protest as unneutral against the pro-
posed mammoth loan was reported In
diplomatic quarters.
lntimations from high officials were
that the Washington government will
disapprove, If not actually forbid, the
huge loan to the allies, if 1t is made
solely upon bonds of the nations ask
ing it.
The government is represented In
the conferences. although unofficially,
1t was learned today. A treasury off,
cial is meeting with the European and
American financiers. Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo Is watching the
course of the negotiations carefully.
To Sound Administration.
II was reported today that the
American bankers will sound out the
administration before completing any
loan. A committee may come here to
meet Secretary McAdoo.
Officials pointed out that the gov
ernment has already indicated that 1t
frowns upon loans to any of the
belligerents. Thus 1t has not actually
stepped In to prevent a loan. how
ever. But there was excellent author.
ity for today's report that, if the ma.
tional bonds. otherwise unsecured
are the only security offered by the
allies for the proposed billion dollars
advance, the administration is dis
posed to prevent the transaction, as
grossly unneutral.
An official close to administration
leaders today said If the loan should
be granted without other collateral
this country would in effect be financ-
ing the allies campaign. This would
permit the allies to buy unlimited
supplies here and also to fill their
treasures with funds TO pay for the
supplies, with no other security than
the national credit behind 1t.
Representations from Germany and
possibly Austria objecting to the loan

DETERMINED TO
PUNISH BAND OF
FILM PIRATES
Mutual company's Manager
Means to Unearth Thieves
Operating in This City.

1t was announced today that a
number of prosecutions would follow
the arrest last Saturday Of Jacob
Schoenbrun, Newark manager for the
Mutual Film Corporation. Schoen-
brun, who was arrested In his home,
1896 Bay Thirty-third street, Brook
lyn, was charged with stealing 49,
600 feet of film from the company's
vault in Newark.
The proposed prosecutions will be
against men who have Systematically
pirated moving pictures owned by
the Mutual company. according to
Samuel A. Field, its manager. MIR.
Field said that he had been in con-
sultation with Charles A. Perkins,
district attorney for New York in the
matter.
He also said that a distributing
agency had returned to his company
1000 feet of stolen film, part of which
made up a picture play that had not
been released. The company claimed
to have bought the film In good faith,
he said, and offered to allow him to
inspect all of the films in its possess
sion.
I'VE understand that some of our
copied and released to cheap thea
ters on the day we released them
to better class houses, the original
film having been returned to us. We
have determined to run down these
thieves and stop the practice. The
business of stealing films has been
going on for years, and some of the
thieves have realized fortunes"
Schoenbruns lawyer denied that
his client was guilty, but said that
he did not know whether his client
would fight extradition to New Jersey
or not.

INCOME TAX
DODGERS Being
ROUNDED UP

Several thousand dollars have been
added to the federal receipts since
NAV at the expense of Newark dodg-
ers of the income tax, as the result of
the addition of new department of
revenue agents to the machinery at
the disposal of Collector Charles "
Duffy for the collection of income tax
nayments in this district.
David K. Donaldson, an experienced
revenue service man, was placed at
the head of the new department, with
the title of chief of revenue agents.
His headquarters are in the Elizabeth
postoffice building.
The statement that attempted In
come tax law evasions by residents
of Newark had been discovered and
foiled was made today by Chief Dep
utv Collector John V. Diefenthaler.
Mr. Diefenthaler' words did not hold
out any great encouragement for the
income tax dodgers, who have as yet
gone scot free.
"Mr, Donaldson and his six assist
ants had all the work Of Organization
on their hands, and a great many
other matters beside digging up in
come tax law violations. They have
not been able to get at the latter work
in earnest yet" he said.

street Mrs Sokolowsky noticed a
motor truck heavily laden coming
along and she called to Antonio to
come back to her.
Just as she called a motorist in
car going east and on the side
away from the child sounded his
horn. The attention of both the woSr
an and the child was attracted by
the sound and the boy, evidently
thinking he was at a safe distance
from the car which gave the warn
ing. stepped directly in front of the
truck from which his head was
turned.
Nearly Hit Baby, Too.
No warning sound came from the
driver of the truck, SO score OF
witnesses agree. The child was
knocked down and run over, while
the wheels of the truck missed the
go-cart with the baby In 1t only by
inches.
The driver of the truck, Henry
Schwartze, thirty-seven years old, OF
$40 DeKalb avenue. Brooklyn, and
employed by the makers of Kirk

at once and was placed under arrest
by Mounted Policeman Louis Farley.
He was locked up in the Third pre-

Policeman John e. Smith, of the
Third precinct, who was on duty near
the scene of the accident, placed the
child in the automobile of Clarence

rushed to st. James's Hospital. 1t
was found upon arrival at the hos
pital that the child had been killed

PETROGRAD. Sept. 14.-Evacua-
ton of wilma will follow the cutting
OF the Vilna-P -Petrograd railway, it was
semi officially admitted today.
The Germans have reached the rail-
way midway between Wilma and
Dvinsk, severing the rail communica-
tton between the Russian forces con-
centrated about these two centers.
One German army is pressing east
ward north of Wilma and another NOV
ing eastward from the region OF
Orany. Retirement from this dan
gerous salient probably will be neces-
sary within ten days.
The battle southeast of Riga is
daily growing more furious. General
Won Beseler has been reinforced by
Won Hindenburg, and is making every
effort TO shatter the Russian front on
the Dwina from Dvinsk to within
thirty miles of Riga. The Germans
are renewing their attempt to cross
the Dwlna near Linden under a cur
tain of terrific artillery fire.
The Teuton army moving on
Dvinsk from the southwest has ad-
vanced five miles along the Vilkomir
road. This was officially admitted to-
day, but 1t was stated that the as
saults upon Dvinsk from the west
have been frultless.
Violent engagements are proceeding
on every sector from the region east
OF Grodno to the Galician frontier,
but without important result. In the
Tarnopol district the ozar's troops
continue to drive back the Germans,
