sent to Print Steel Company State
ment as Public Document.

The naval bill reached its last
stage toward passage in the Sen
ate today, with opponents of the
large building program ready
with a fire of amendments for
reduction. Democratic senator's
however, were confident the ad-
ministration program would pre-
vail
The vote was delayed by a renewal
of the controversy between Senator
Reed of Missouri and Senator Oliver of
Pennsylvania.
Senator Penrose, during Mr.. Reed S
absence from the chamber, got the
unanimous consent of the Senate to
print as a public document the Beth
lehem Steel Company's published argu-
mentS against government armor
plate plant. When Senator Reed re-
turned and learned of it. he denounced
and an outrage" and declared the COM
pany's statements were false and mis-
leading.
/ senator Ol1Ver CndllenReS.
Senator Oliver challenged Mr.. Reed
to show the statements he referred to.
The senator from Pennsylvania"
Senator Reed replied, had the cool as
surance. after admitting that he owned
Steel stock, to stand up here and at
tempt to vote money into his own pock-
ct by supporting a bill which would
hal n ha
the senator were a judge he would not
be permitted to vote on this issue"
Senator oliver denounced that state
ment, asserting that Senator Reed was
attempting to avoid his challenge.
II say" continued Senator Reed,
that the senator from Pennsylvania
on this floor admitted he owned a large
amount of Steel stock and that this
stock was in a concern that was the
parent company OF concern engaged
in the manufacture of armor plate.
Would Benefit by Steel Profits.
"The senator knows that whatever
might defeat the construction of a gov
ernment armor plate plant will increase
the price and profits for private armor
plants: that the profits will be dis
tributed among its stockholders and
that some of those profits will emit a
musical jingle in the pockets of the dis
tinguished senator from Pennsylvania" :"
Senator Gallinger suggested that
Senator Reed was overstepping a Sem
ate rule and Vice President Marshall
also intervened.
Senator Reed then read from the Rec
ord another passage between himself
and Senator Oliver on the Same subject
when Senator Oliver told the Senate he
owned United States Steel stock valued
at $4,000.
Senator Penrose finally withdrew his
request for publication OF the Bethle-
hem Steel Company documents and
said he would not attempt to hold the
Senate to its unanimous agreement.

LONDON. July 21-The Morning

grows stronger as the circumference Of
the defense contracts, and he probably
will be strongest when once more
driven back upon his own admirable
home railway system.
There is, still q school Of experts
who believe that the Germans
should be encouraged to attack by
steadily retreating before them. as no
form of fighting nowadays costs so
dearly as attack. !Wellington's vic
tories in Europe, Waterloo particularly,
were won by retreat.
But this scheme apparently is i'm
possible at present. owing to the fact
that western Europe goes to pieces
morally at the very thought Of retreat.
This is unfortunate. for retirement is
every whit as legitimate a military
move as advance. especially in such a
war as the present, where victory in
the old sense is impossible"

WOOL PRICES SOARING
BECAUSE OF The war
Demand Is Greater Than In Recent Years
And Increased Offerings Means Many
More Dollars For Farmers.

The customary $500. 900 wool crop of
the Bluegrass promises to attain value
of at least 500, 900 this year. and if the
present upward tendency in the market
continues to affect the price list. even
greater returns may be expected, ae-
cording to local dealers estimates.
War conditions have been assigned as
cause of the strong tone to the bnsi-
ness and record price may be attained
unless the European conflict should end
or exports be cut down for any reason.
Present rates on wool are 81 and 35
cents over the local floors. Dealers are
paying that price for all they can get
and the state of the trade is healthy.
Normally the prices paid to sheep rails
ers is about % cents. and this represents
the average for the past several years.

BOOT LEGGERS
RECEIVE HEAVY
BLOW IN P0-
LICE COURT.
JUDGE fRISBIE MAKES fine
BEGINNING AS POLICE
JUDGE.

The officers Of the city of Lancaster
have been planning for some time to
make drive against the boot leggers
of the town. who are always hard to
catch. Policeman. o. Buck and city
attorney. j. E. Robinson. have been
laying the wires for several days and
on last Friday four warrants were sworn
out against Ed Anderson, two against
Tommie Adams and one against LessAn-
derson, all colored all of whom are known
to be the chief boot leggers of the
town. The Police Court room was
crowded on Saturday morning to see
Judge Frisbie hold his first important
trials. After the evidence was heard
in all the cases and the attorneys had
submitted the cases for the judgment
Of the Court, His Honor. Judge Frisbie.
pronounced his judgments against the
defendants in about the following words:
I'VE have tried the four cases against
Ed Anderson, two against Tommie
Adams and one against Less Anderson
upon the charge of selling liquor H.
legally in the town of Lancaster. |
have considered the evidence on both
sides in all Of the cases and | am con-
WINGED beyond any doubt that each of
the defendants have been proven guilty
upon all the charges in all the cases.
1t shall be my earnest effort
to see that no innocent person is con-
victed in this Court while am Judge,
but at the same time am determined
that all forms of violation of law shall
be stopped in this city. AS to the pun
ishment of the defendants upon the
charges it is my belief that persons who
engage in boot Logging of whiskev or
as is commonly called running blind
tiger do SO with full knowledge of the
strong and overwhelming sentiment of
the people against their acts. in fact
they do 80 with the intention of defying
the law and the wishes of the whole
community. 1t is my judgment that
only severe punishment will bring such
offenders to observing the law end the
right way Of living. Believing the
defendants guilty and considering the
nature Of the offense committed BY
them. the punishment in each case
against each defendant will be One
Hundred Dollars. ($l0O.). and cost and
imprisonment in each Gaze in the Coun-
ty Jail for thirty days" After the
trial Judge Frisbie was the recipient of
a shower of congratulations for the
manner in which he had conducted the
first important trials in his Court.
Those who heard the trials were fully
convinced that boot Logging will soon
cease in this city.

Manager +. G. Hummel OF the Mu

The chief reason why the syndicate

operators, whereas in California sal

Mr. Worster said he believes the
