FROM WHEELING
Bad Streets and Lack OF
Patronage Given as the
Cause.

WHEELING, July 24-The Jitney
Bus company which operated for some
time in this city. has quietly folded
their tents like the Arabs, and as
silently stole away" to a location In
ether cities where the people take
more kindly to such transportation
and where the streets are not so
rough. When the business first start.
ed to operate in this city there was
Q "jitney" craze among the people who
had been starving for an auto ride,
but the novelty Of the whole thing
soon died out, or was knocked out by
the rough streets and people began
TO spend their "jitneys' again with
the street railway companies.
There was no legal opposition to
the Jitney Company here and they
had everything their own way, but
owing to the causes above stated that
kind Of transportation did not become
as popular here as It has in other sec.
tons Of the country. The meeting
recently called by the public service
commission to regulate rules govern,
ing the "jitney" companies operating
throughout the state may have had a
tendency to make the local company
look for a location in another state,

companies were forced to stop the

ed even before the present war ends.
1t can be. The Government OF the
United States not only feels obliged
to insist upon Il by whomsoever VIC
lated or ignored, in the protection Of
Its own citizens. but is also deeply
interested in seeing 1t made practt-
cable between the belligerents them
selves, and holds itself ready at any
time to act as the common friend who
may be privileged to suggest a way.
In the meantime the very value
which this Government sets upon the
long and unbroken friendship between
the people and Government OF the
United Sattes and the people and
government Of the German nation i'm
pels it to press very solemnly upon
the imperial German government the
necessity for a scrupulous Observance
Of neutral rights in this critical mat
ter. Friendship itself prompts It to
say to imperial government that repe'
ttion by the commanders Of German
naval vessels OF acts in contraventlon
Of those rights must be regarded by
the Government Of the United States,
when they affect American citizens,
as deliberately unfriendly.

The Following is Complete
Text of the Note to Germany

can not consent to abate any essential
or fundamental right Of Its people be-
cause Of mere alteration OF circum-
stance. The rights OF neutrals in
time Of war are based upon princi-
pie, not upon expediency, and the pr1n-
ciples are immutable. 1t is the duty
and obligation Of belligerents to ind
a way to adapt the new circumstances
to them.
The events Of the past two months
have clearly indicated that it is pos
sible and practicable to conduct such
submarine operations as have charac-
terized the activity OF the imperial
German navy within the so-called war
zone in substantial accord with the
accepted practices Of regulated war
fare. The whole world has looked
with interest and increasing satisfac-
ton at the demonstration Of that pos
sibility by German naval commanders.
II is manifestly possible. therefore, to
lift the whole practice Of submarine
attack above the criticism which It
has aroused and remove the chief
causes Of ofense.
In view Of the admission OF Illegal
ty made by the imperial government
when it pleaded the right Of retalia-
ton in defense Of its acts, and in view
of the manifest possibility Of conform
ing to the established rules Of naval
warfare, the Government Of the Uni
ted States cannot believe that the i'm
perial government will longer refrain
from disavowing the wanton act OF its
naval commander in sinking the Lusi-
tania or from offering ~reparation for
the American lives lost, so far as
PREPARATION can be made for a need
less destruction of human life by an
illegal act.
The Government OF the United
States, while not Indifferent to the
friendly spirit in which It is made,
cannot accept the suggestion OF the
imperial German government that GER
tain vessels be designated and agreed
upon which shall be free on the seas
now illegally prescribed. The very
agreement would, by Implication, sub
iect other vessels to illegal attack and
would be curtailment and, therefore,
an abandonment Of the principles for
which this Government contends and
which in times Of calmer counsels
every nation would concede as OF
course.
The Government Of the United
States and the imperial German gov
eminent are contending for the same
great object, have long stood to-
gether in urging the very principles
upon which the Government Of the
United States now so solemnly in
sists. They are both ~contending for
the freedom OF the seas. The Gov
eminent Of the United States vii!
continue to contend for that freedom,
from whatever quarter violated, with
out compromise and at any cost. 1t
invites the practical cooperation OF
the imperial German government at
this time when cooperation may &C
complish mos and this great common
object be most strikfngly and effect
lively achieved.
The imperial German government
expresses the hope that this object
may be in some measure accomplish

7 IS
Z BY George Munson
o"WiIl Stanley Take the Witness
Stand?" was the headline that con-
,fronted Robert Stanley as he took
the paper from the newsboy. lie
flung himself down into his seat in
the Pullman and read the article at
qteptively.
Would he? No! He had never
been a gutter, when a round dozen
'iof Wall street sharks got an innocent
man by the throat because he was too
honest to join their pool, and raked
I'D an obsolete statute to send him
to Jail, what hope of justice was
there anywhere? Stanley was doing
something that he had never done in
his life before; he was running away.
: Running away in the only possible
manner. Just dropping everything
and going with $4,000 in his pockets
and the rest of his assets behind him.
His house, his bonds, his automobiles,
his creditors cool million was be-
ing sacrificed. For Stanley had had
enough of financial life.
- He had come to the city 25 years
before, poor boy. In those rs years
9 he had become the shrewdest man on
Z the street. And the most honest.
= Stanley was proud of his reputation.
But of course honesty is relative
term, and he had known that the
Paramatta combine was not strictly
legal. Of it's honesty he had no doubt.

est girl in the little village, and she
was to have become his wife when he
was getting on and able to support
her. In his second year he nearly
sent for Miriam But he was too
busy just then, and when, after five
years, he wrote to redeem his prom
