Hardly Probable that the Measure Will Get Through in the
 Senate.
SOUTH BADLY AFFECTED
FiIibuSter Promised By a Georgian Senator if Such Course Is
 Necessary.

WASHINGTON. Aug. S.-The child labor bill. which would bar from the interstate commerce all products made by children under IA years of age, or by children employed in any mill or factory for more than eight hours day. has very little chance of passing in the United States Sen ate.
 The bill would seriously affect a great many of the mills of the country particularly those of the South. Despite President Wilson's trip to the Capital to induce south .ern Senators to fall into line for the bill. there has been no let-up in the opposition to it.
 Senator Smith of Georgia says thst he personally will conduct a nlnbuster against the b!n if such a course should become necessary.
 It is probable that President Will son will content himself with the strong advocacy of the bill without using any additional pressure. The Senate leaders believe that there is little liklihood that the measure will pass. It will be jockeyed out of DO sitlon and forced to go over.

Teutons Gain No Ground and Are Forced To Retreat-KoveI
 Soon Falls.

PETR0GRAD, Aug. 3.-Accord- ing to unofficial advices received from the western front today the Teutonic forces are preparing to evacuate Kovel and it is also re- ported that Lemberg is to be eyac- uated if the move is made from Kovel. Vast quantities of stores and munitions have been taken from both places.
 The official statement issued by the war office this afternoon says:
 "The enemy last night launched gas attacks on both sides of the Kovel railway. The attack opened at one o'clock this morning. The gas was released six times with in- tervals between the waves of the gas attacks and finished at 6 O. clock when the use of the gas was discontinued with the result that the Germans, following gas attacks, were attempting to ad- vance. They were met with rife and machine gun fire, and suffered severe losses.
 "The enemy did not even succeed in getting outside his own wire en- tanglements and rapidly returned to his trenches.
 "On the Caucasian front in the direction of Karput near the village of Nurik our detachments made an advance and forced back the enemy from his fortified position on the right bank of the river Euphrates at Murdetohala.

.SULZER WARNS THINGS UP IN THE
 NOME COUNTRY
Miner Candidate Addresses Largest Audience Ever
 Seen at Nome.
WICK MEN FOR HIM
Multitude of Former Sup pOrterS of Delegate Promise Support
 to Democrat.

NOME, Aug. S.-Senator Chas. IA. Sul2er last night addressed and enthused the largest audience ever lgathered at political meeting at Nome. The hall was filled, and doz- ems of those present were compell- led Co stand throughout the speech (which continued for two hours. The audience was agreed that never be- fore was such a comprehensive dis cussion of Alaskan affairs heard in this city, and the enthusiasm for Senator Sulzer, already great was increased largely by the masterly presentation of the issues that con front the Territory.
 Senator Sulzer was introduced by George B. Grigsby, the Democratic nominee for Attorney-General, who presided at the meeting,
 Wickersham Elimination First,
 The candidate for Attorney-Gener- al said that he would make a can lvass of Alaska for election to the office for which he has been nom mated. but" he said, "the issue of first importance in Alaska is the elimination Of James Wickersham from Alaska politics. Until that is accomplished there cannot be set Itlement or issues nor material pro- gress." He stated that his campaign would be for Sulzer first, not only at Nome but throughout Alaska.
 Reception for Sulzer.
 Senator Sulzer was given mag Inihcent reception, and held his aud fence intensely interested for two hours, and was frequently inter- rupted with prolonged applause. He went thoroughly into the issues of the campaign, covering the tinan- cial affairs of Alaska completely, showed the need for greater self government, and how the lack of lit is holding back Territorial gov ernment. He showed Delegate Wick ersham has proved inadequate as a Representative at the national cap lital and is not fitted through real service or tempermentally for Del egate to Congress. He stated his position clearly and uncompromis- ingly on every issue before the peo- pie and in a manner so boldly as to amount to a challenge.
 People Offer Congratulations.
 It was more than an hour after the meeting before Senator Sulzer could depart from the hall. During that time hundreds of people came lup and congratulated him and pledged him their support, among them were a multitude who hereto fore have supported Wickersham. The enthusiasm and the earnest ness of the pledges of support offer ed the nominiee has convinced those familiar with the conditions at Nome that Senator Sulzer will car Try this city and the Second division by an overwhelming majority opin- ion here is that he is a winner.
 Sulzer and Grigsby To Leave. Senator SulZer will leave here on the next steamer departing for Fair banks where he will campaign the Fourth Division more thoroughly and then leave for the coast.
 George B. Grigsby will leave here flor Seward August 18th. He will speak at that place, Anchorage, Val dez. Cordova and other Third Di- vision cities, and then leave for a campaign trip through Southeastern Alaska.
