MEAT LINES FORMED
IN GERMAN CITIES

Berlin, May 16. Correspondence OF
the Associated Press).-For the first
time since the outbreak of the war
meat is hard TO obtain in the capital
and larger cities of the German en-
pire. Meat lines" have grown as long
as the 'butter and milk lines" and
those forming them must sometimes
wait for hours before they can pro-
cure the quota allotted by their cards.
Responsible for this condition are
the heavy demands of the army upon
the meat supply, an almost total ces-
sation of imports, and the govern
ment's new policy of discouraging the
slaughtering of meat animals before
fattening has given them their maxi
mum butcher weight. Cattle owners
have recently show a tendency tc
keep stock from the market because
the maximum price arrangement has
left them little profit.

AN SALOON
LEAGUE ESTIMATE
As to the Vote Which will be Polled
for Senatorial and Gubernatorial
Candidates Tomorrow

Editor Star: The league has made
a careful canvass of the state to
learn who is in first, second and third
place for governor and United States
senator.
The eight wet counties of Florida
are supposed to poll nearly so per cent
of our vote, and it is quite common for
the liquor interests to vote absolutely
solid, while with prohibitionists ex-
Iactly the opposite is the case. In this
instance we are dividing our vote
between three for governor and two
for the Senate.
Now think a moment: Half of the
vote is ours, and we give our candi-
dates each third or : half of it,
which gives him one-sixth of the total
vote; the liquor men controlling the
other half give it solid to their one
candidate. Where will this put us !?
Should we not select one of our men
and give him the benefit of solid
vote? Have we not as much common
sense and sagacity as they? The
second choice will elect, Be sure to
vote it.
The league is satisfied with Tram
nell and Bryan, and with Cats,
Knott and Hudson, as to their fidelity
to our cause. We regard them as per-
fectly sound on prohibition. The
[chances that these candidates stand
of being elected, as indicated by the
statewide canvass above referred to,
are as follows:
Trammell, rs per cent.
Bryan, "a per cent.
Knott, So per cent.
Cats, 36 per cent.
Hudson, II per cent.
These figures show the status of
all the candidates, except that Farris
and Gilchrist- Wall are sure to receive
a strong liquor vote that our league
cannot hear from. Only our friends
and those more or less neutral will
talk frankly to US. Farris will contest
| first place with our high man for
governor and Wall-Gilchrist will do
the same for the Senate. They will
select one man to concentrate on at
the last moment. Sincerely,
! Anti-Saloon League of Florida,
Kent Pendleton, Supt.

HAS CHANGED HANDS
Ocala Gas Co. Purchased by New
Jersey Man Who Will Greatly
Add to It

The Florida Utilities company, a
newly organized corporation, has pur-
chased the Ocala Gas company, will
enlarge and improve the plant, lay
ing at once about five miles of new
mains. Mr.. G. w. Hunter will con-
tinue as manager for the present at
least, and will have charge of the
work.
Mr.. J. Leffert Conard, of Trenton,
N. J., president of the new company
is in the city, and when seen this
morning said that about $4,000, and
possibly more, will be spent in i'm
proving the present gas plant and in
creasing the mains. The Florida
Utilities company, according to Mr.,
Conard, was organized for the pur-
pose of operating a series of gas
plants, and at present has a plant at
West Palm Beach and another in
Rome, Ga. Interested with Mr.. Con-
ard in the company is Mr.. William M
Muschert, of Trenton, N. J. Both are
wealthy men of that city interested in
the pottery industry. They believe
that there is a good opening in Ocala
Most of the new gas mains will be
laid in Linwood Park, in the south
|eastern and the southwestern sections
of the city.
Speaking of the pottery industry,
Mr.. Conard said that he thought that
Florida kaolin would be used more ex-
tensively, and that Investigations
were being made looking to the use
of the clays of this state. He pointed
out that the war had made it neces-
sary to seek clays at home.

SUPREMACY OF
BRITAIN SAFE
MIGHTY NAVY YET CONTROLS
THE SEA BY AN IMMENSE
MARGIN
(Associated Press)

London, June 4.--The latest reports
from the British feet, from neutral
vessels which witnessed parts of the
great naval battle in the North Sea
and from survivors, cause the Brit
ish public to believe that the engage
ment was not so near defeat as it
first appeared, and in no wise as dis
aster. The British losses, with all
the craft engaged accounted for, were
three battle cruisers, three cruisers
and eight destroyers.
The German losses are believed to
have been about the same number Of
ships, although much less aggre-
gate of tonnage.
British naval experts maintain that
Great Britain continues to hold the
supremacy of the sea by safe mar
gin and that her enormous navy could
better afford the losses it suffered
than could the smaller German estab-
| lishment. The first reports of the
heavy loss of life, unhappily, have not
been revised. Great Britain mourns
for more than 1000 of her best sea-
men, and the whole nation is oppress-
ed with sadness, which is reflected in
the faces of all the people of London.
There were. 5000 men en- the ships
which sank, and only few hundred
have been saved. The horrors of mod
ern warfare far exceeding those when
wooden ships fought and continued to
float even when they ceased TO be
fighting units, were realized to their
utmost. From five of the largest ships
which went under with complement
of more than 1000 men, only seven
junior officers and a few seamen were
rescued.
| Rear Admiral the Honorable Hor-
ace Lambert Hood, second in COM
mand to Vice Admiral Sir David
Beatty, and Captains Sowerby, Cay
| and Prowse were lost with many
others. There were no surrenders,
and the ships which went down car
ried with them virtually their whole
crews. Only the Warrior, which was
towed part way from the scene of
battle to British port, was an ex-
lception.
Of some thousand men on the
Queen Mary, only a "corporal,s''
guard is accounted for. The same is
true of the Invincible, while there is
no survivors reported from the In
defatigable, the Defense or the Black
Prince.

TOLD THE TRUTH
Secretary Lansing Says that Fatty
Degeneration Threatens the
United States

Watertown, N. Y, June 4.-Secre-
tary Lansing, before the jefferson
County Bar Association here, last
night, scored critics of the admins
tration's foreign policy.
He said that neutral right violat-
ed by loss of life was far more seri-
GUS than neutral right violated by
the loss of property, and declared that
there were influences in America, and
even in Congress, which put rights of
property and rights of life on a par.
"This shows" he said, "that the
great heart of the republic is threat
ened with fatty degeneration through
those who have lost their patriotic
vigor."

It appears that the ordinance does

Republicans Believe They Can
Win With the Jurist
BELIEVE THAT HE CAN UNITE THE PARTY AND POLL THE
SUCCESSFUL VOTE NEXT NOVEMBER
(Associated Press)

Chicago, June 5.-The movement to
nominate Justice Hughes in the re-
publican national convention here this
week has assumed the aspects of a
genuine boom. Arriving delegations
have evinced sentiment for the
jurist's nomination. Men who have
been identified with the republican
old guard declared numbers of dele
gates instructed for other candidates
were ready to turn their votes to JUS
tice Hughes after the first ballot The
lack of controlling leadership by the
old guard element is emphasized on
every hand. They express themselves
as not favoring Hughes for any rea-
son of personality, but because first
hand reports indicate that he is the
man to harmonic sentiment and re-
habilitate the party, bringing in the
progressive strength.
Explanations for the failure of the
expected sentiment for Roosevelt to
crystallize are sought on every hand.
A week ago many opponents feared a
stampede to Roosevelt, but this is
now said to be improbable. Republi-
can leaders, after a canvass today,
declared Roosevelt's strength would
not be over 200 delegates. They be-
lieve the number will be nearer one
hundred and fifty. It is asserted that
the remainder wouldn't vote for Col.
Roosevelt under any circumstances.
The talk of demanding precon-
vention statement from Hughes has
been practically abandoned. It is gem
orally agreed that Justice Hughes will
continue to remain silent while on the
supreme bench, but if he should be
the nominee will Immediately make a
statement of his position of national
questions. His supporters point to his
speeches made at different times be-
fore he went on the bench, claiming
that sentiments expressed by him
then show he is for preparedness.
Everywhere there seems to be a
sentiment to avoid making the nomi-
nee campaign issue and to select
some one on whom the republicans
and progressives can agree.
