FARMER F00TS BILL ASSERTS
 JAMES WILSON
Special to The Republican,

NEW YORK, Sept. Zs.-"That the farmer foots the bill" for increased cost of railway operation due to the Adamson bill, forced through congress by President Wilson at the demand of the railway brotherhoods, is the con- tention of the Hon. James Wilson for mer secretary of agriculture, in state ment issued today. EX- Secretary Will son says:
 Much is being said these days re- garding increased pay for railway men. Four of the railway brotherhoods went to the chief executive and demanded ten hours pay for eight hours work, fixing a day in the immediate future when they would strike and tie up the business of the country if their de- mands were not complied with. This is the kernel of the proposition being discussed throughout the length and breadth of the land. We hear from some sources that the movement was to fix eight hours for a days work on the railway, but others worthy of ere dence assure us that the proposal was merely one to get more pay for fewer hours.
 The farmer pays the help generous ly and, if it is ascertained after care full and full inquiry that labor on rail- ways is underpaid he would consent to pay his share of the increase, or, if the measures agitating the country for the purpose of eGualizing salaries and adding something for those receiving now too little to support themselves and families as Americans should live, the farmers would be content.

PROTECTIVE
 TARIFF THEME
 UT DAYS TALKS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1


 PITTSBURG, Sept. 27.-Charles E. Hughes, went through the big steel making district of Pittsburg today, ad- dressed thousands of workingmen who left their work to hear him, returned to the city tonight, covered with dust and ended the first day of his campaign in Pennsylvania with a speech in the Mu- sic Hall of the Pittsburg exposition
 The chief theme in all of MT. Hughes addresses today was the protective tar if. To an audience of workmen he de- clared that present conditions of pros- perity would not endure when Europe would be at peace unless the United States should adopt a protective tariff. To an audience that damned the music hall he repeated this statement tonight. In his night address he also dwelt at length upon his views on the Adamson bill, the administration policy toward Mexico. the shipping bill and what he termed extravagant claims made by the administration for having aided bus mess
 MT Hughes spoke from platform upon which were seated republican and progressive leaders who have opposed each other in the state during the last four years. On his way here from Cleveland he was met and escorted to this city by Senators Oliver and Pen rose and William Finn, the latter a for mer progressive leader. These, with Alexander P Moore and other pro- gressive and republican leaders sat with him on the platform tonight In his speech MT. Hughes emphasized his belief that the republican party was reunited.
 "The breach of recent years has been healed" he said. And our national aims at this time are conserved to be of such transendent importance that we know no difference and are not allowing any former disagreement to impair our unity of effort. I should take little pleasure in my candidacy if I did not think that the re-united republican party was a great liberal party, the party of progress We are truly pro- gressive, sanely progressive, looking forward to the solution of important problems that this new century will place before us.'
 MT. Hughes left at midnight for Trenton, N. J., where he will speak to- morrow morning and Saratoga Springs, N. r., where he will deliver an address tomorrow night
 During the afternoon he visited Homestead. Duquesne, McKeesport, Wilmerding and East Pittsburg, ad- dressing audiences of bluejeaned mill workers at every step.
 To these audiences, the nominee spoke chiefly of the protective tariff At one great plant, 7,500 workers were giv- en an hour off on full time to hear him. The managers of his tour estimated that it cost the company s2, 900 in wages to have MT. Hughes come to this plant.
 After the long motor trip, MT. Hughes reviewed a big parade of republicans tonight. They marched past his hotel six and eight abreast white umbrellas | over their heads, torches lighted and red fire blazing. Nearly an hour was | required for the parade to pass.

 "The ruins of church changed hands three times during the twenty minutes it took the French and British to reduce the last stronghold, after they had formed a junction and closed ring around the town, the fall of which was saluted with enthusiastic cheering. It was then impossible to take two steps without encountering dead.
 Tn cellars and dugouts dead and wounded lay mingled by the hundreds and it Is now certain that the allies did not take great number of pris- oners because the garrison was vir- tually annihilated in the assault and the previous shellings.

To co-ouera.e With Entente

LONDON. Sept. 2S.-The council of Greek ministers has decided, in agreement with King Constantine, upon military cooperation with the entente powers, says a Reuter- dis patch from Athens dated Wednesday.
 With the exception of a decision to cooperate in a military sense with the entente powers, reported to have been reached by the Greek king and his cabinet, the disptches received in London from Athens throw little light on the Hellenic situation.
 The decision is said to have been the outcome of conference between the king. loyal generals and the kings closest advisers, during which they elicited a promise that he sign a decree for a general mobilization before former Premier VeniZelos has time to reach Saloniki.

urnes War Declaration

ATHENS, Sept 26.-(Via London, Sept 2S)-King Constantine received this morning an exhaustive report from General Moschopoulos, chief Of the general staff, detailing the chaos in the military organization of the country caused by the departure Of so many officers to join the Anglo French allies, and advising the i'm mediate declaration of war by Greece without waiting either the assistance or the iEsistence of the entente powers, as the only way to save the situation.
 Premier Kalogeropoulos. on depart ing from conference with the king this morning made :his declaration to the Associated Press;
 The king can only await the re- ceipt of the entente's demand It would be futile to re-arrange tho knowing that such alteration would prove satisfactory. We are prepared as we have always been, to meet any desires of the entente in the most cordial spirit of cooperation But we can scarcely be expected to abide by the entente's wishes"
 Despite the profound popular be- lief that the country is facing the greatest crisis in it's history, calm ex- pectancy reigns in Athens. The Ven iZelist morning papers publish dec larations which the premier left prior to his departure. in which he says the movement he heads is purely of national character and that he has no design upon the integrity of the actual government os the country. M. Venizelos declares that his course IS the only way by which national unity may be preserved.
 II Is learned that communication oetween the king and Venizelos has already been established through the former minister of war. General Yam akltsas' and that the outlook is fav- orable for an arrangement of diff ferences.

BERLIN, Sept 27 (Via London, Sept 2D.-The Berlin newspapers today are acclaiming enthusiastically the arrival of the German submarine Bremen at New London. The Connecticut town has jumped to a point of prime inter est and the newspapers have found 1t necessary to describe it's situation by the aid of maps. They are also dilating on the history of the town.
 The news of the Bremen relieves the protracted tension, which had grown intense as the expected arrival. of the submarine was delayed from week to week. Apparently authentic rumors had been in circulation that the Bre- men sailed early in August. Hence fears were entertained in some quarters that something had gone wrong with her and the report of her arrival had been greeted by the newspapers as paving the way for the establishment Of a regular submarine service between Germany and the United States.
 All the newspapers today print sketch of Chaplain Schwartzkopff, cap tain of the Bremen, who was for long time in the service of the North Ger man Lloyd Steamship company. lie served for years on the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse and distinguished himself in rescue work on the HoDoken pier fire in 1900 Captain Schwartz kopff was the first officer of the Prinz Friederich Wilhelm when the war broke out. The steamer was then at Spitzbergen on a Polar excursion, but succeeded in making home port With out encountering the British fleet.
 There have been many reports or the expected arrival of the merchant submarine Bremen at various ports on the Atlantic coast recently, but up to the present she is not docked in any of them. The announcement of her ar
