In France the Scissors cathedral

that a Red eros flag was flown from

used as an observation station.
The fighting in the western zone has
been confined to Champagne and the
Vosges. In the latter territory Ger

THREE SHIPS SUNK
IN DAROANELLES
THREE OF THE ALLIES VESSELS
SENT TO BOTTOM BY
FLOATING MINES.
Turks and Germans Had Set Adrift
Floating Containers Of Explosives
and These Came In Contact With
the Doomed ships.

London.-The British battleships
Irresistible and Ocean, and the
French battleship Bouvet we're blown
up by floating mines while engaged
with the remainder of the allied feet
in attacking the forts in the narrows
OF the Dardanelles Thursday.
The crews of the two British ships
were virtually all saved, having been
transferred to other ships under a hot
fire; but an internal explosion took
place on board the Bouvet after she
had fouled the mine and most of her
crew was lost. The Bouvet sank
within three minutes of the time that
she hit the mine.
The waters in which the ships were
lost had been swept of mines, but the
British admiralty asserts that the
Turks and the Germans set floating
containers of explosives adrift, and
these were carried down by the cur
rent into the allied ships gathered in
side the entrance of the straits. All
the ships that were sunk were old
ones, the Bouvet having been COM
pleted nearly twenty years ago, and
the Ocean and Irresistible in 1898.
They were very useful, however, for
the work In which they were engaged
in the Dardanelles.
The sunken British ships are being
replaced by the battleships Queen and
Implacable, vessels OF a similar type.
They are said to have started some
time ago for near eastern waters in
anticipation of just such losses as
have now occurred

GOVERNOR VETOES
PROHIBITION BILL
MEASURE ADOPTED BY UTAH
LEGISLATURE NOT APPROVED
BY GOVERNOR SPRY.
Executive Declares Members Of Leg
isIature Were Pledged to Submit
Question Of Statewide Prohibi-
ton to the Voters.

Salt Lake City.-Governor William
Spry has vetoed the statewide pro
hibition bill, which would have placed
Utah in the dry" column on July l,
1916.
Governor Spry on Thursday, March
IS. filed senate bill No. 90, known
as the Wootton BILL with the secretary
of state with letter of disapproval,
which, under the constitution OF Utah,
amounts to a veto.
The governor stated that no mem
Der was pledged to enact a prohibition
law. but that such pledges as we're
given were to the effect that the
question should be submitted to a
vote of the people of the state. The
message also sets forth that there
Is on the statutes of the state at the
present time local option law which
makes 1t possible for communities to
be dry" IL the residents desire.
In addition, the legislature just adj
journed passed a bill, which was sign
ed by the governor, which prohibits
the shipment of intoxicating liquors
into dry territory, thereby strengthen
ing the prohibition in those sections
which have acted favorably under the
local option law.
In commenting on the bill, the gov
ernor said that the bill was 'hedged
about by support that turned deaf
ear to those who would have amend
ed 1t to meet various objections, among
whom was the governor, who urged
that provision be made for compensa-
ton to those whose property would
be rendered valueless."
He declares that he urged the leg
islators TO incorporate such clause
and, failing therein, had requested
that the time at which the bill would
have become effective be extended
The legislators also turned a deaf ear
to this request
He also said that he believes the
people of the state have right to
express themselves on the question,
mot through representation that has
promised one thing and provides an
| other.'
His concluding objection is that the
bill abolishes the saloon and makes
the druggist the dispenser of alcohol
and wine on the physicians perscrip-
ton, with the generous allowance of
a maximum Of one quart Of liquor I'M
der each prescription.

what is even OF greater military mo-

used for Mexican railways.

COTTON PROSPECTS BRIGHT.
EurOpe's Demands for Staple Heavy.
Question of Shipping.

Washington, Jan. 7.--Secretary
Redfield through the Daily Com
merce Reporter, to-day issued a state
ment regarding cotton shipments
which should be cheering news to
those engaged in this business. This
statement in part is as follows:
Cotton is not contraband, and
formal assurances that it will be so
regarded have been received from
Great Britain, France, Germany and
Austria-Hungary.
The price of cotton in Bremen,
Germany, as set forth in a telegram
from the American embassy at Ber-
lin, dated December 20, 1914, is SO
pfennigs per one-half kilo Ca trife
over 20 cents a pound) for good mid
ding cotton.
The American ambassador at Ber-
lin states that 100000 bales is a
conservative estimate Of the market
for cotton for 1915. Another tele-
gram from the American ambassa-
dor at Berlin states that it is not a
question Of how large the market Is
for cotton in Germany, but how much
cotton can be shipped to Germany.
THE estimated demand in Austria
is 100000 bales. Italy is also pre-
pared to take a much larger quantity
Of cotton than in former years and is
eager to do so The American am
bassador at Rome states that in past
years about 100000 bales have been
imported, and assurances are given
to Inc that at least 100000 bales
might be sold in Italy.
Cotton is now being shipped on
American steamers to Germany
through Rotterdam and Goteborg and
| direct to Bremen. The Netherlands
foreign Office has informed the Amer
lean legation at The Hague that no
obstacles will be presented by The
Netherlands government to consign-
ments of cotton in transit to Ger
many or to trans-shipments if con-
signed to Netherlands firms. Transit
permits can be obtained by Neither
lands firms before or upon the arri-
val of shipments consigned to them.
THE Swedish foreign office has
given assurances to the American
ambassador that the Swedish gov
ernment will not interfere with con-
signments of cotton for German ports
via Sweden or with re-exportation to
Germany of cotton consigned to
| Swedish concerns"

mentions an engagement east OF the
Rawka river, in Poland, where it is
said the advance continues, but the
spectacular clashes of great masses
of troops during the earlier part of
the war have no parallels now along
the Warsaw front. There, as in the
west, the Germans and Russians have
dug themselves in and are taking up
tedious operations in the trenches.
