WHERE IS BREMEN?
is QUESTION OF
GROWING INTEREST
English Authorities Ask if
Submarine Could Have
Landed at Some OBJ
scure Point on Coast

London. October 4.-The naval authori-
ties here are manifesting great interest
in the fate of the German submarine
Bremen which, sometime ago was report
ed to have sailed for the United States,
and which they says is greatly overdue
In discussing the probable fate OF the
submarine liner, the naval authorities
ask If it is likely that she put into some
obscure American port. 1t is known here
that the Bremen was reported while on
her way to the United States, but the
last report of her showed her to be a
considerable distance from the American
coast. A.
In naval circles it is felt that the Ger
man submarine campaign has again as
sumed serious proportions. In these cir
cles the opinion is expressed that Ger
many has after-war as well as present
conditions in view in her destruction of
tonnage and the feeling is growing that
Great Britain soon will be impelled pub
licly to announce ton-for-ton policy as
one of the clauses in the peace treaty.

While the First regiment band played
Dixie and hundreds of Montgomery's So
ciety girls waved adieus batteries A
and c, First artillery of Birmingham,
rolled away from Montgomery at $3.50
o clock this afternoon on their long jour-
ney to Douglas, Ariz. The scene attend
ing the departure of the 300 batterymen,
both from the camp grounds and the rail-
way station, was inspiring. They were
accorded an ovation at Vandiyer park
shortly before they boarded their train.
The entire brigade turned out in honor of
the first Alabama troops going to the
border and shouted themselves hoarse as
the train pulled out The First regi-
ment band augmented by musicians from

the railway station gave a serenade in
the presence of several thousand spec

Democratic Leaders Claim
an AppreciabIe Failing
Away" From Hughes
SPLENDID RESULTS
FROM PRESENT TRIP
While Addresses of President Will Be
"Nonpolitical," Yet He Is Ex-
pected to Deliver Messages to
American Electorate
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, October 4.-(speciaIo
Since President Wilson expressed the
opinion that the election of Charles IL.
Hughes would he followed by war be-
tween Germany Mexico, ON the one
hand, and the United states ON the
falling away'' from the G.. o. y. STAN
dard, according 10 n statement issued
today by the democratic campaign COM
mfttee.
Especially is this true Of the west"
continues the statement, where pros
perity's glance has been brightest and
most constant; where the people are
votaries of peace and look with hor-
ror on the possibility of a ruthless
and unnecessary war"
Chairman Vance Mccormick declares
that conditions. already roseate, will
begin to show still greater improve-
ment when the President hits his
stride in his western jaunt While the
| addresses of the chief executive will
be labeled "nonpolitical.a they will. or
course, serve the purpose of a bona
fide and undisguised campaign tour.
WAR OR PEACE
| While the issue is not sharply de-
] fined-or admitted 10 exist-there is
no question but that the democratic
party is the party of peace" and the
republican party the party of war"
| In the first place, the democratic
party has kept the peace with the re-
suit that the United States has grown
| in wealth and power and happiness
while the other great nations of the
world in the grip of war-mad barons
have been for two years in the mills
of destroyers In the second place.
Wilson, with Bryan and Ford as his
chief lieuteuants. cannot fail TO meas
ure up to the requirements of the most
/ extreme pacifists-this despite the fact
1 that under the guidance of the Presi-
dent, this government has prepared for
| the possibility of war.
With Wilson reelected, Pan will
continue to pranee in the moonlight to
the melody of his reeds. But should
Hughes be elected viii not the re-
| joicing be transferred from the wales
and hills to the skull-tlled walls or
| Mars?
G. o. p. POSITION
The attitude of the republican party
is one antagonistic to the viewpoint
and the achievement of the democratic
party. AS may be recalled, following
the nomination of Hughes, Roosevelt,
who had bitterly protested against the
efforts of Wilson TO maintain a con-
dition of peace, went into conference
with the former justice of the supreme
court. Following that conference
| Roosevelt announced himself entirely
satisfied with the ideas and declara-
| lions of the nominee. Democrats are
contending that Mr. Hughes either
agreed to. pursue a course in interna-
| tional affairs directly opposite to that
pursued by the President-that which
maintained peace-or so patiently came
under the spell and domination of the
warlike colonel that the latter was
convinced that he himself in the event
of Hughes election would DE the guild
| ing and moving and controlling genius.
! Respecting the possibility Of war.

one good purpose. 1t has convinced the
ultimate goats (the public at large)
that laws must be enacted to prevent
recurrence Of conflicts in the future
which have possibility of a paralysis
of the commercial interests of the country
Those laws should be so drastic in their
mature as to force course of modera-
ton on both sides to the controversy.

railroads and their employees.

be no question as to the legality of

than they have been worn in the past
seasons. Strictly tailored suits, of
course, do not have very wide or long
skirts.
Among the coat styles there are some
Russian effects seen, which most women
will be happy to learn. One of the ia
vored models is fitted above the waist
and quite full below it, and there are
many variations of the idea.
A suit that gives promise of being
very well liked on account of its gen
orally becoming lines is illustrated here.
It has deep pockets which are cut in one
with the fronts of the coat, and mar
row belt going around the sides and
back, but not the front. The skirt that
completes this suit has pockets CORE
spending in cut to those on the coat.
In the other suit shown here, there
is a suggestion Of the Empire style, the
return of which we have been hearing
so much about lately. 1t comes in a
modified form, having a panel in the
front and back, and is certainly most
attractive.
A wonderful smart suit from Paris
was made of navy blue garbardine, with
a very long, full coat. The skirt also
