NO REPLY NEEDED

Submarine Issue Closed.
Lansing May Issue Statement
Touching on Note.

Washington. May 6.-The sub
marine issue between the United States
and Germany is closed. This is the
view of President Wilson S advisers with
tn official text of Germany's reply to
the American demands in hand. The
president himself received the official
text today but the White House with
held comment
So completely do officials in touch
with the situation consider the issue
disposed of. it is said, there will be no
reply by the president to the German
note. There may be a statement by
Secretary Lansing, however. calling
attention to the essential point in the
note-that Germany has ordered sub
marine attacks confined to vessels of
war. This is the essence of the kaiser's
reply, officials say, and leaves no
actual issue with Germany.
The issue will remain closed Of
ficia1s believe. They feel Germany
will not reopen it by resuming warfare
against merchantmen.

The conference between Ambassa-

here. 1t never had been seriously

that conference.

1t may be said with certainty that

question possible peace as a re-
suit of the German note. One of these

To OTHER BANKS
Shawnee County Sends $4,000
to Country Institutions.
Three Per Cent Paid When To-
peka Bankers Refuse.

Shawnee county will draw per cent
interest on at least fifty thousand dol
lars of its funds
The county commissioners have
authorized the county treasurer to
place that amount on time deposit in
three banks located outside of Topeka
Twenty thousand dollars will be placed
in each of the two banks at Rossville
and ten thousand dollars will be placed
in the bank at Silver Lake. These
amounts will be deposited by the
county treasurer for given periods of
time and he will take out time GER
tificates in his own name, as county
treasurer
All of these banks have been carry
ing some county money but have been
carrying it on daily balance and have
been paying II per cent interest on
it. When the Topeka banks got to-
gether and announced that beginning
May l they would pay the county only
per cent interest on daily balances
the commissioners looked for a hole
They asked w. E. Atchison, county
attorney. for an opinion as to whether
money on time deposit. The opinion
was favorable and the instructions to
the county treasurer were issued yes
terday.
Fifty thousand dollars is only a
small part of the county's funds but
the rate to be paid by the outside
banks is one-half of one per cent more
than the county has been receiving in
Topeka heretofore and one per cent
more than it will receive on daily bal

Continued Today.

FL Paso, May 6.-General Scott and
General Funston planned today to
hold another conference with Cen
eral Obregon in the expectation that
before it ended, the suggestions of the
United States government for CO.
operative disposal of the Villa bands
in Mexico would take the form of
duly signed protocol
Prior to the m citing, however, came
reports from Juarez that were :
quite so optimistic It was reported
that the negotiations might extend into
still another session of he conferees
because General Carranza had eX-
pressed a wish for further discussion
of the subject Of the withdrawal of
the American troops.
While the American conferees will
listen attentively to any suggestion
submitted by General Obregon, there
IS no chance that any change in the
attitude of the United States will take
place it was said here, except on minor
details. The fact that General Car
rama did not Immediately endorse the
tentative agreement entered into by
General ObregOn was seized upon by
the ''interventionists'' here, who have
been predicting a break between the
fl st chief and his minister of war.
They declare that the present situa-
ton is but a forerunner of a wider
split TO come between the two men.
Truce With ViIIistas.
From authentic Mexican sources, it
is learned, that during the conference
held here and in Juarez, an inter party
truce has existed in Mexico with the
understanding that if trouble arises
between the de facto government and
the United States. all factions would
unite against the common enemy.
General Trevino is reported to have
received messages by telegraph from
various Villa chiefs saying that they
are ready to put siNtee1 million rounds
Of ammunition now hid in the noun
tains as well as their own services at
the disposal of the first chief, should
a break occur with Washington
There are now no Villa bands, only
bandits was the comment of General
Obregon today when the subject of
operations against Villa was men
toned.
There are nc Villistas, as their
cause is dead and gone" Obregon
continued. 'It is now only hunt aft
er outlaws without a flag. 1t is only
matter of time and diligence before
they are cleared out of our country"

Veterans who fought in the civil
war are for a program of prepared

stated that sons of veterans are bit

expect from Roosevelt administra-

travelling men of the state For near
ly forty years he has been enrolled as
a knight of the grip and through his
acquaintance in Kansas is able to
gather definite view of sentiment in
various localities.
L have just made a ninety day trip
over the state and there isn't a bit of
question about a growing Roosevelt
sentiment in Kansas said Buffum.
This sentiment is especially defined
among old soldiers and sons of vet
