Superiority of style does not neces-
sarily mean highness of price, for the
Walk-Over Boot Shop, 226 Market
street, offers the best of workman
ship, the finest of quality, and the
newest of style in a stunning new
pump which sells for $3.50. 1t is of
a beautiful glazed kid with graceful
Louis XVI heel, especially suitable
for formal or dress wear though per-
fectly appropriate on the street.
Straps cross on the instep, and fasten
with a single button on each side.
This makes a strikingly pretty effect
on the foot, and has the added ad-
vantage of being more comfortable
than the usual pump models, especial
ly for people who have trouble with
pumps slipping off at the heel.

Allies Demanding
Absolute Control
Of Greek Affairs

Paris, Oct. 12.-Details of the de-
mands made on the Greek govern
ment by Admiral D'Artige du Four
net, commander of the allied naval
forces at Piraeus, which have been
made public here, show that the ulti-
matum was much more comprehen-
sive than was understood at first.
In addition to its fleet, Greece was
required to permit allied control OF
all material for naval operations as
', ell as the mails, telegraph and rail
roads. The ultimatum set forth that
such control was necessary in order
to render impossible the use of the
navy, railroads and so forth to the
detriment of the allies.
Admiral du Fournet gave the Greek
government until | o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon to comply with his de-
mands and stated that failure to do
so would result in his taking the
necessary steps himself,

MINISTER LOUDON
GIVES HIS VIEWS
Does Not Believe German Gov

of Steamer Bloomersdijk.
EXPECTS DIsAvowAL SOON

The Hague, Oct. ll.-(Via London,
Oct, l2.)-"I cannot believe that the
sinking of the Bloomersdijk will be
upheld by the German government
said Minister of Foreign Affairs Lou
don to a representatives Of the Asso-
ciated Press this afternoon.
Minister Loudon, after having re-
yceived report OH the case from the
minister of The Netherlands govern
inent in Washington, was about to
dispatch a note to Berlin. which in
the customary diplomatic terms asked
for an explanation for the sinking OF
this grain ship in the Atlantic off the
New England coast during the Ger
man submarine operations, Of last
Sunday. He said he could not ex.
plain the act other than il was com
mitted in a misinterpretation OF or
ders by hot-headed submarine COM
mander (fagrant examples Of such
action, he noted, having occurred be-
fore), who, having ascertained that
the cargo was grain and that the ship
would touch at Kirkwsll, had sent
it to the bottom without needing the
fact that the grain was consigned to
the Dutch government. ,...
IF Admiral Won Tirpitz had been
at the head Of affairs in Germany it
would be understandable" added the
foreign minister, "but | do not be-
lieve it Of Chancellor Won Bethmann.

paration for this unjustifable act"

Naval Patrol Already on Duty
Along North Atlantic, Guard

PREVENT SECRET BASES

Washington, Oct. 1.-The whole
submarine situation, both as to the
recent raid on the New England
coast and the broader question OF
campaign in Germany for ruthless
resumption of the warfare, shows
signs in official quarters OF having
practically cleared up.
No new developments are reported
and no new disturbing information
has come to the State department, ac-
cording to officials, to change the de-
cision arrived at by President Wilson
and Secretary Lansing.
While no immediate steps are in
contemplation for the actual estrb-
lishment Of naval neutrality patrol
along the Atlantic coast as a result
OF the German submarine raid, the
Navy department has completed a
definite, plan to be put into opera
ton II the campaign continues.
Destroyer Force Active.
The entire destroyer force, active
and reserve, assisted by light cruis-
ers, havy tugs and other auxiliary
craft, will be employed to protect
American territorial waters and also
to prevent the establishment OF any
secret bases ashore or communication
between shore radio stations and bel
ligerent craft.
The proposal of mobilizing the
force OF privately owned motor boats
along the coast which have been en-
rolled with their crews as part of
the naval reserve was first consid-
cred. but various obstacles were en-
countered.
Officers to Reserve Ships.
Naval militia officers and men al
ready have been assigned to reserve
ships for service il necessary.
Indication that an American naval
patrol has been placed on duty along
the north Atlantic coast was given
today when Captain Mcdonald Of tho
steamship Munamar, in New York
from Cuban ports, reported that off
the Jersey coast about 6 o'clock this
morning y an American destroyer
dashed up through The mists and cir
cled Ills ship several times. Captain
Mcdonald said that he broke out the
national colors and the destroyer i'm

Twelve Thousand
In Standard and
Other Oil Plants Quit

Bayonne N. j., Oct. 1.-THE street
approaching the Constable Hook sec
ton of this city resembled today an
armed camp. Thousands of strikers
from the plants Of the Standard Oil
company, Tidewater Oil company
Vacuum Oil company, Pacific Coast
Borax company and the General
Chemical company maintained a
dead line across the approaches to
those plants. Inside this line nearly
100 policemen we're stationed in
fire engine house guarding the plants
from attack, while few other police
men and seventy-ive deputy sheriffs
held possession of the main police
headquarters.
There were no signs of cessation
OF the labor war which caused the
clash yesterday of police and strikers
in which one woman spectator was
shot and killed and twenty strikers
were wounded.
About 1900 men have quit work
in various plants at Constable Hook
and virtually have besieged the police
in headquarters and fire station.

F Prestonburg, Ky, Oct. l2.-Charles
E. Hughes today carried his campaign
to the mountains OF Kentucky and
into mining and lumber towns which
no presidential nominee has ever vis-
tied before His audiences were COM
posed of men and fomen who had
travelled miles by horseback and by
mule to hear him as he outlined his
views on the maintenance OF Ameri-
can rights abroad
Il stand as the representative OF a
party" he told an audience in the
village streets here, but in the true
sense as a representative OF that
American sentiment which demands
that the lives and property Of Ameri-
can citizens shall be safeguarded
throughout the world,
r, Not Policy of War,
THAT does not mean policy OF
war. Our opponents have said re-
Gently, in effect, that il we oppose
what they have been doing, we must
necessarily favor war. That, to my
mind, is statement which hardly de-
serves notice, it so plainly is contrary
to the facts.
81 do not desire war Who could
desire war? We know the awful
wastes, the awful tragedies Of war.
We are devoted to the pursuits of
peace; we are friendly with every ma
tion under heaven and every nation
desires to be friendly with us. We
have no policies of an aggressive
character, we do not covet anybody's
territory and we are not seeking any,
thing that is not our own. We only
ask that our just rights, our known
rights, be- maintained.
Must Deserve Esteem.
I'VE cannot have peace for any
great length of time unless we have
self-respect. We cannot have peace
or security unless we have the esteem
OF all the nations of the earth. We
must deserve this esteem if we are
going to enjoy it. When VIC have
known,righfs, every nation must un-
derstand that we are fidn in their
maintenance, that We mean what we
say, that we are prepared for every
emergency, and that we stand four
square to the world, with no secret
intrigues, with no covert understand
ings, but determined that American
rights, according to international law,
will be safeguarded everywhere

Louisa, Ky, Oct. 12.-The special
train carrying Charles E. Hughes,
on his third western trip, was stopped
by broken rail on the point of a
curve around steep embankment
of the Big Sandy river leaving Paints
vile today. The rail was broken for
a distance OF several inches, the in
side flange having been knocked en-
tirely away. L
Section hands discovered the break
a few minutes before the special was
due and tagged the train. The brok-
en- part of the rail could not be found.
Train officials said that the break
appeared to have been caused by a
heavy blow from some instrument.
Only a few persons aboard the spe-

On lonesome South Dakota prairie
a few days ago big team of horses
was galloping slowly around in a
wide circle, drawing grass mower.
Down at the edge OF the sickle, just
out of reach OF the buzzing blades,
the limp form OF man hung help

terrific speed was gouging a great
hole in his side. even as shrapnel
tears its way through in the trenches.
That man was Louis A. Beals OF
Fifty-hrst and Hillsdale avenue, Oma-
ha. While his wife was in Omaha
trying hard to build up modest lit
tie house, where the family might
winter, Beals was on his homestead
alone cutting some hay when the ac-
cident occurred
The ground was rough The
wheels struck prairie dog hole and
jolted Beals out OF the seat He
fell over the pitman, got his limbs
caught there in such a way that he
could not get off, while at the same
time the horses started to run in
wide circle.
When the big. numbering horses
had worn themselves out and finally
came to standstill, frothing at the
mouth and champing their foaming
bits, Beals labored long to extricate
himself,
He examined his side and found
great wound large enough to stuff
his fist ip, where the pitman had
hammered and torn its way through
the flesh
In great agony this homesteader
still realized he was thrown upon his
own resources. He sat up and looked
about him. There was nothing but
