LIEBKNECHT MAY
 BE ARREETED ON TREASON CHARGE

Berlin, June 28-The trial of pr. Karl Liebknecht, the socialist leader, began today before a courtmartia1 which will decide whether he was guilty of attempted treason in time of war in participating in a May Day dem onstration in Berlin.
 Dr. Liebknecht's criticisms of the government in speeches in the Reich stag previously had led to his ex- pu1sion from the Socialist party. He was arrested on May 1 during a de- monstration and since has been held in custody, the Reichstag having on May II by a large majority declined to grant his release.
 During the demonstration. it was a1- legged that cries of Down with War and Down with the Kaiser" were raised by the dem monstrators.
 Four Berlin newspapers published today the following from the semi official Wolff Bureau:<
 +'In the course of demonstra- ton last evening for Deputy Lieb- knecht a rather large crowd collect ed at Pottsdamer Klatz (Ber1in) Some 20 persons were taken into cus- tody to establish their identity. There were no further incidents"

THE SUFFRAGE PLANK.
CBoston HeraId.)

The women suffragists can rightly claim a distinct victory in the com mittee of the Republican party to their cause, even though that organ ization insists that the question be one for the states to decide. No preceding convention of a great party has gone so far as this. Doubtless the close vote on the question in Iowa this wek had something to do with inn parting the notion that this extension of the suffrage was somewhat inevita- ble, and that the G. O. P. ought not in consequence lose support in the 12 states where women will vote in the coming election. The Democrats will, of course, go just so far, particularly as their candidate came out for wo- man suffrage. and so voted in LRe New Jersey election. Here is an issue which the PFogressives had all to themselves four years ago, on which they must now divide honors with both the other parties.

BRITISH KEEP UP
 HEAVY ATTACK ON
 PORTIONS OF FOE

British Headquarters in France, Tuesday, June 27, via London, June 28-British guns continued today the bOm bardment over a broad front which was begun yesterday. The As sociated Press correspondent, riding 70 miles behind the lines, found the same regular pounding of positions on both days, whether in the Somme re- zion or along the Vinny Ridge
 Going to point on high ground which allowed a broad sweep of wis ion in a rolling country, or forward to observation posts in the trench, the correspondent found the horizon al- ways bounded by shell bursts.
 There might be a Hull at one point for a while but soon the inferno in that direction was renewed.
 Under cover of the bombardment the British made numerous trench raids last night. bringing in groups of prisoners
 The British released gas at certain points but discontinued when the weather was found to be unfavora- bIe-

SUPPLIES READY
 FOR ALL TROOPS CALLED TO DUTY

Washington, June 2S-War de- partment officials believe they have perfected arrangements by which ann- pie supplies of food, equippage and clothing will be provided for all troops called into the federal service no matter how great the mum bers may be. Secretary Baker today made public the following statement from the quartermaster general:
 The quartermaster corps has, up to the present time, met all the calls made upon it for supplies in the way of clothing and eQuippage and with the arrangements which we now have for purchasing in order to repIenish stock it is not believed there will be any difficulty, no matter how many troops are called.
 AS far as food supplies are con- cerned, these have been abundant in quantity and of excellent quality and arrangements are such that the SUD- plies will continue when the troops reach the border. The only difficulty so far experienced has been in obtain ing a sufficient number of motor trucks of a certain type preferred by army officers for border use Plenty of trucks of proper size and power but of different designs are imme- diately available"

THE VALUE OF DELAY IN MEXICO
(Boston HeraId)

In point of fact, the shrewdest lead ership would suggest a purposed de- lay. We need the time for the hard ening of our troops. If we knew that were were to throw 200, ,OOO men across the Rio Grande, : land we could by any scheme of diplomacy or otherwise take three months in inuring them to the hardships of life in the open
 working in rainsoaked clothes and in extra ranges of temperature
 we should do just that. This is the hottest period of the year. If we m ust fight in Mexico we would rath- CT do it a few months later We would rather do it with militia men who had had three more months for whipping into shape. The delay would incidentally enable the War Department to substitute militiarn men for the seasoned regulars in the Phil ippines, the Canal Zone and Alaska
 the latter to serve in the Mexican n campaign-no small factor in an army of the modest dimensions of our own.
