Just why it's so | hardly know.
But have heard repeated
That mining schemes are willy

Air bubbles, super heated.
When sharpers thrive, and so derive
A bank account unlawful,
They seek the fools to be their tools,
And put it over awful.
It's my surmise, till all are wise
The sharpers won't be grieving,
But everywhere, will do their share
OF plain and fancy thieving.
Now as to facts. wouldn't tax

You'll recognize, with some surprise,
You've been bit close-fisted.
Those figures that | limited at

For to July the year gone by

You multiply million by

WILL NOT CHANGE
SUBMARINE BILL
GERMANY MUST REGARD ARMED
MERCHANTS WARSHIPS-NoTE
GIVEN TO LANSING.

mn a note presented
to Secretary Lansing by Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador
Germany assures the United States
that it has no intention of revoking
the pledges given in the Lusitania
case
The note says Germany can con
ceiYe OF no reason for changing or
postponing the new instructions to her
submarine commanders to treat as
warships enemy merchant ships armed
"defensively," and that special pre-
cautions have been taken to prevent
ships that are not armed from being
attacked
The note at the outset reiterates the
previous pledges. which were given
on September ! and October 8 last
year for the safety of unresisting
liners and then goes on TO say the
German government does not believe
those assurances have been modified
by the new memorandum.
During the negotiations over the Lu,
of armed merchantmen. and that the
United States in one of its notes on
the Lusitania mentioned "unarmed
merchantmen" Attention then is
called to the assurances previously
given in which it is stated that liners
will not be sunk without warning, pro
vided they do not offer resistance. At
tention also is called to the statement
of the American government in its no
tice to port authorities that the pres
enee of armament on board a mer-
chant vessel creates the presumption
purposes.
The charge is made that Austrian
submarines also have been attacked
by armed merchantmen, which the
note declares are not conforming and
have no intention of conforming to
the assurances given to the United
States by the British government The
German government says it cannot see
how the American government, in
consideration of these facts. can re
gard armed British merchantmen as
peaceful trading ships.
The note makes it clear that Ger
many believes It's new instruction to
submarine commanders are in accord
with the viewpoint expressed by the
United States in its memorandum
proposing modus vivendi to the
entente allies for the disarmament OF
merchant ships.
1t declares German submarine com
manders have been so instructed that
they will not destroy a merchant ship
on a question of armament unless it
is known positively that such arma-
ment exists.

London.-Keen disappointment aa
to the results Of recruiting under the

was expressed in the House of Lords
by the earl of Derby, former chief Of
the recruiting service.
The earl laid the chief blame for the
failure TO achieve full results at which

age from eyading military service by
transferring themselves 10 specialized
occupations and declared that
strong effort was necessary TO obtain
a requisite number OF fighting men,
without whom the empire might fall.
AgriculturalIsts, the earl of Derby
said, We're the principal class to avail
themselves of exemption under the
plea that they were Indispensable for
the production of foodstuffs and that
such exemptions should be watched.
Baron Harris, who has large farm in.

single man was necessary on farm.
No figures as 70 the result of the
recruiting campaign we're given, but
it was announced that 10000 mar

Of Derby's scheme since the begin

At WILHELNSHAVEEiHI
MUCH SOUGHT GERMAN SHIP RE.
TURNS TO PORT WITH 1879
PRISONERS.
SHE CAPTURED IS VESSELS
Ship Is Loaded With Gold Bars part
of Which Was Taken From the APP
pam Which Put in at Newport
News Several Weeks Ago.

Berlin.-The German commerce
raider Moewe has returned to a Ger
man port with 199 prisoners and l.,
100000 marks in gold bars, according
to an official announcement by the
naval general staff The statement
follows:
THE naval general STAFF states that
II. NJ. S. Moewe, Commander Capt.
Burgrave. Count Won Dohna-Sehlodien
after successful cruise lasting sew
eral months arrived at some home
port with four British officers, 20
British marines and sailors, 166 men
OF crews of enemy steamers. among
them 103 Indians, as prisoners, and
100000 marks in gold bars.
The vessel captured the following
enemy steamers, the greater part Of
which were sunk and small part or
which were sent as prizes to neutral
ports:
The British steamers Corbridge
1857 tons; Author, 1896 tons, Trader,
3,6OS tons; Ariadne, 3,035 tons; Dro-
monty, 1927 tons; Farringford, BAG
tons; Clan Mactavish, 5.8f6 tons; Ap5
pam, 1871 tons; Westbrun, $500
tons; Horace. 1885 tons; Flamenco
1929 tons; Saxon Prince. 3,471 tons.
The British sailing vessel Edin-
burgh. lab tons.
THE French steamer Maroni, 3,409
tons.
The Belgian steamer Luxembourg,
4.322 tons.
AT several points on enemy coast
the Moewe also laid out mines to
which, among others, the battleship
King Edward VII, fell victims"
The Woewe's capture of two of the
Is vessels listed by the German adj,
miralty has not been reported prev
iously They are the Saxon Prince
and the Maroni, both engaged in the
transatlantic service
The Saxon Prince. 3.471 tons gross,
$50 feet long and owned by the Prince
Line of Newcastle, England. was built
in Sunderland in 1899. She. was last
reported on sailing from Norfolk, Feb
ruary -, from Manchester.
The Maronf sailed on February 10
from Bordeaux for New York. She was
owned by the Compagnie Generate
Trans-Atlahtique of Havre, and was
312 feet long and of 3,109 tons gross.
The Moewe, previously made. IA.
nous by her exploits. has performed
one of the most spectacular feats Of
the war on the seas by reaching q
home port in safety. The great Ger
man naval port of Wilhelmshaven is
on the North Sea which is patrolled
with ceasless vigilance by British
Warships. 1t is through these waters,
which have been blocked off in dis
tricts for patrol by the different Brit
ish units. that the Moewe must have
threaded her way.
At least part of the gold captured
by the MoeWe was taken from the
Appam, which put in at Newport
News several weeks ago Under com
mand of Lieut. Berg with a German
prize crew.
