Found Shell Buried Since the war Between
the States.

Duke, Aug. 2O.-Dr f r
Ruff has made a very inter-
esting find. A few days ago
he was driving past the scene
OF the battle of Averasboro
and saw exposed and partly
covered a piece of iron. He
stopped and investigated and
discovered that it was a shell
supposed to have been used
in the War between the
States. The shell is about
four inches in diameter. The
opening was stuffed with
something similar to paper.
This being removed, it was
found that the shell was load,
ed and the powder, when
PARTICLES of it were spread
upon a paper and the match
applied would burn.

RUSSIANS IN sight OF HUNGARY.
Fighting on Crest Of Carpathians Overlooking
the Plains, Have Pushed Across StOkhod.

| Sundays dispatches say in the
east the Russians are apparently
centerlng their efforts on their
new drive toward Kove1. Berlin
admits that General Brussi1off's
troops have crossed the Stokhod
at one point and Petrograd says
that the Russians have pushed on
beyond the river and captured a
series of heights on the road to
kovel, Fierce fighting continues
On the crest of the Carpathians,
where the Russians are battling
within sight of the Hungarian
plains. No indication has been
given however, of the strength
OF the forces engaged in this re-
g1on and it is uncertain as vet
whether General Brussiloff is
making a serious effort to invade
Hungary.
The offensive on the Saloniki
front is slowly developing and.the
hghtlng is growing in intensity
on the 150-mile battle line from
Lake Presba to Lake Dorian.
Both sides claim minor successes
but apparently no action of first
Importance has occurred. An
interesting feature on this front
is the advance of Bulgarian de
tachments toward the Greek sea-
port OF kavala. This port is we'll
to the east of the allied front and
the purpose of the Bulgarian
move is not made clear in the dis
patches.
On the western front the French
continue to press forward in the
neighborhood of Guillemont and
Paris reports the capture of a
strongly fortified wood between
that town and Maurepas.
In the Verdun sector the Ger
mans are fiercely counter-a attack
ing in an effort to regain Fleury,
the loss of which they concede.
The British report the repulse OF
German counter attacks and the
capture of a portion of trenches
north of Bazentin-le Petit.

Rumanian Situation Described as Serious,

Amsterdam, via London. Aug.
22.-The Rumanian situation
again is taking leading part in
the war news. Dispatches from
Berlin and Bucharest via Berlin
describe the relations between
Rumania and the German Allies
as extremely serious. Wolff
Bureau dispatches hint that an
Austro-German A ultimatun is in

PRESIDENT STANDS FOR wage ARBITRATION
But Unfortunately Arbitration Cannot Be Se-
cured In the Present Emergency.

Washington, Aug. 20 Reply
ing to telegram from Presiden'
Pope of the National Association
of Manufacturers, asking that he
''assert and maintain the principle
of arbitration for industrial dis
putes" President Wilson, in q
message made public today, de-
clared his plan for a settlement
of the railroad controversy, does
not weaken or discredeit til prin-
ciple of arbitration but rather
strengthens it.
Other than the announcement
of Mr.. Pope's message and the
President answer there was
little of interest in today's deve-
lopments. Railroad officials held
several informal conferences. but
most of the brotherhood repre-
sentatives were out of the city
With the arrival of other railroad
officials tomorrow the conferences
with the White House will be
renewed and active developments
are expected within few days.
Mr.. Pope 5 telegram to Presi-
dent Wilson was dated Hartford.
Conn, Aug. Is, and follows:
Son behalf of $500 manufac-
turing organizations, employing
three million persons and utterly
dependent upon uninterrupted
railroad service for their continu-
ed operation, l beg at once to
express our deep appreciation of
your efforts to prevent the
threatened destructive stoppage
of national railroad service and
to respectfully urge that you will
with all the power of your great
Office and personality assert and
maintain the principle of arbitra-
tion for industrial disputes affect
ing national intercourse. No
just demand can or should sur
vive it. We sincerely believe no
man in our history has possessed
such an opportunity TO for'ity
this essential principle of public
security against future attack by
employer or employee.
Geo. Pope, President,

facturers."
The President replied:
ALLOW me to acknowledge the
receipt of your telegram of Aug
ust 1S and to say in reply that l
hold to the principle of arbitra
tion with as clear a conviction
and firm purpose as anyone, but
that unfortunately there is no
means now in existence by which
arbitration can be secured. The
existing means have been tried
and have failed. This situation
must never be allowed to arise
again but it has arisen. Some
means must be found to prevent
its recurrence, but no means can
be offhand or in a hurry or in
season to meet the present nation.
al emergency. What / am pro-
posing does not weaken or dis
credit the principle of arbitration.
1t strengthens it rather. 1t pro-
poses that nothing be conceded
except the 8-hour day, to which
the whole economic movement of
the time seems to point and the
immediate creation of an agency
for determiug all the arbitration
elements in this case in the light
not of predictions or forecasts
but of established and ascertained
facts. This is the first stage of
the direct road to the discovery
of the most permanent basis for
arbitration when other means
than those now available are
supplied.
