Arthur Waltenen was arrested in
Ironwood Mich, for the murder in
September, 1915, of a New York wild
oW, who was strangled in her home,
and he has confessed. Conner Talus,
servant Of the woman, was convict
ed on what was considered strong cir
cumstantial evidence and sentenced to
be electrocuted, but last month SEN
tence was committed to life imprison-

do away with capital punishment.
The republican party managers are
tickling themselves with the outcome
of the election in Maine on last Tues
day. When Maine goes anything but
republican, it's only an accident. And
when old rock ribbed Maine gives a
majority Of less than 10000 for a re-
publican candidate for senator in the
largest vote cast in it's history, we
fail to see where any particular "joy'
for them is found. Cleveland was
elected in 1884 with a plurality of
2O,O64 against him in Maine, and when
again elected in 1892 the plurality
against him in Maine was 1879. If
the Maine results show an index, it is
pointed in favor Of democratic sue
cess in the November elections.
Now the public examiner puts Hib.
bling and other Iron Range cities in
the imelight, and some Of the news
papers play up the report, which the
officials and people criticised do not
seem to take very seriously. So far

GERMANY'S ACT FORCES

piles Owing to Shortage
In ships.

ROTTERDAM, July 23.--In connec-
ton with the food riots in several
cities In Belgium and Northern France,
which have been suppressed. interest
ing light is shed on the general food
situation.
by the entente governments an amount
Of native fodstuffs from Poland must
be shipped to England equivalent to
tho amount shipped from Holland to
Germany, az condition under which
tho Dutch arc permitted to continue
tho Importation OF fodder for their
cattle. Recently the British govern
native Dutch products to the relief
commission for export TO Belgium and
Northern France.
The latter region has been dependent
entirely for some time on Holland for
Its limited supply OF meats and fats.
Tho German government thercupon for
bade such exports on the ground that
areas permitted England to escape the
expense it would be under il the food
went to that country.
ON top OF this prohibition came tho
announcement that the German gov

Tho lons-expacted orange book. cover
ing tho period from October. 1915. to
July OF the present year. was issued
to-day. II wildly illustrates tho diff
hcuitics with which Holland has had
to deal. owing to her geographic sit
uation between the belligerents The
record shows that disputes have arisen
with Germany and Great Britain. the
progress of which was followed with
the deepest interest, mixed with
anxiety, by the entire Dutch nation.
Tho orange book has been delayed for
months In the hope that some settle
ments of the questions At issue would
be reached. but several matters are
still in suspense. it says. and some ap-
parentlv in hopeless deadlock.
The principal Of these matters is tho
sinking of the Dutch liner Tubantia.
which is at tho stage which had been
reported on Juno .. whom. on tho
ground or elaborate technical evidence.
Germany declared the incident closed
that no German warship had sunk
the Tuhantia. The Dutch government
has determined to leaving nothing un-
done 70 obtain additional light on the
matter. aud has asked further infor-
nation from Germany. with which con-
fdentiai conversations are proceeding.
FULL PREPARATION Is
DEMANDED For ACT
Another case dealt with Ia that of
the destruction in April by a German
submarine OF the Dutch steamer Berk-
elstrom Holland sharply demanded
full reparation for this act, and espeoi-
ally protested against the German sub
marine commanders alleged utterance
that all goods bound for England were
contraband and all ships bound for
England would be sent to tho bottom.
Germany, on July Q. justified the
sinking OF the Berkelstrom. but in
vited the owners OF the cargo on hoard
the steamer to make their claims to
the Hamburg prize court. Germany de-
MED that tho submarine commander
used tho words complained Of. declar-
ing they were entirely contrary to
tho Instructions of the German Ad-
mralty."
Holland, on July IL, however. COM
planned that the ships papers had not
been sufficiently examined. and main
tanned that the destruction OF the Rerk-
clstrom was illegal.
The orange book says that answers
are still expected from Germany as to
whether the explosions on tho Holland :

bound from Baltimore for Rotterdam
