SENATE WILL PASS
RURAL CREDITS BILL
PRESIDENT INSISTS THAT 1T
SHOULD BE ADOPTED BY
THIS CONGRESS.
FARMERS MUST HAVE HELP
Tillman, Overman, Simmons and Other
southern Senators Approve Most
Features Of Bill.

Washington.-The Senate has gone
to work on the rural credits bill,
piece of legislation which President
Wilson insists should be adopted by
this session of Congress. There Is
little doubt but that the measure Will
be passed by the Senate within short
time, now that work has begun.
Senator Simmons was among the
number talking while the preliminary
discussions were under way. With
regard to the interest to be charged
by private institutions he said: Il
think it is possible to provide in this
bill as to limit the rate of interest
that those private institutions may
charge and do it by increasing the
security for the bonds they may issue,
and then you would provide a very
strong system"
Senator Overman in commenting
on the proposed legislation said: Il
think rural credits legislation should
be enacted as early as possible. 1 do
not like some features of the bill now
before the senate, but most OF the
provisions are all right. The farmer
must have better banking arrange
ments. 1 am glad the President has
this legislation on has program"
"The banks are so full of deposits,
said Senator Tillmon, that there is
no where for them to lend their
money at a profit except to the far
mers 1 am in favor of a system at
a rate of five or six per cent by
which loans can be made on long
time mortgages on real estate"

"The Emperor was reviewing the

peared and dropped numerous bombs
which landed among the troops, who
fed in wild disorder" says the news
agency statement. "The Emperor, &C.
cording to the reports, was hurt and
had a narrow escape, the incident
causing him entirely to lose his self
possession. In consequence, the re-
ports added, General Grussiloff was
bitterly reproached and General Ivan

FINAL WARNING
GOES TO GERMANY
AMERICA ANXIOUSLY AWAITS
REPLY FROM IMPERIAL
GOVERNMENT.
WILSON TALKS TO CONGRESS
President Tells Congress Germany
Must Accede to Demands to Pre-
vent Breaking of Relationship.

Washington. President Wilson's
long-expected final warning to Ger
many that the United States will break
off diplomatic relations unless she
abandons her present methods Of sub
marine warfare, and Immediately de-
clares her intention to do so, was de-
livered in note to Berlin and was an
nounced by the President in an ad-
dress to a joint session of Congress.
The President demands nothing less
than the abandonment OF submarine
warfare against commerce.
Both the Presidents address and
the American note declare in unequl-
vocal terms that only by Germany &C.
ceding to the demand can the breaking
off of relations be prevented.
The President considers that the
next step depends solely upon Ger
many and that three or four days
constitute a reasonable time for
reply. He is willing to discuss how
submarine warfare may be conducted
within the limits of international law
and humanity after Germany aban-
dons her present methods.
Diplomatic history records but one
instance as yet where a breaking OF
relations between two first-class Pow
ers has not eventually brought war
that which now exists between Ger
many and Italy.

AFFECTED AMERICAN TEX

GUARANTEE SAFE PASSAGE
Bernstorff Delivers Note to Lansing
Who is Arranging With England
For Safe TRANSPORTATION.

WashingtOn.-The German govern
ment has agreed to permit expectation
to the United States of $4,000 tons of
dyestuffs, lack of which has seriously
affected American textile manufacture
ers. Notification to this effect was
contained in a note delivered by Am
bassadOr Won Bernstorff to Secretary
Lansing.
The communication explains that
while Germany refused at first to per-
nit expectation of dyestuffs unless ex-
changed for American goods now ex-
cluded from Germany by the British
blockade, after careful consideration
of the situation it has been seen chat
this blockade has resulted in serious
embarrassment to those American in
dustries which are in need of dye
stuffs," and the Imperial German Gov
eminent now is prepared to make "a
single exception" in permitting expOr-
tation in this instance. 1t is required
only that the dyestuffs shall be con-
sumed by American manufacturers
and not re-exported TO Great Britain
or her Allies.
1t is expected the State Department
Immediately will make representa-
lions to Great Britain to insure the
safe arrival of the dyestuffs in this
country.

Washington.-No decision as to
withdrawal of American troops for
10 days unless there are new out
breaks against the forces in Mexico
to compel immediate action. This was
made clear when Secretary Baker dis
patched Maj. Gen. Hugh L. Scott, chief
of staff to the border as his personal
representative to make a complete re-
port on the military problems con-
fronting General Funston.
The administrations final action on
General Carranza's suggestion that
the expedition be recalled probably
will be based largely on his report.
General Scott, who left Washington
tonight will hardly be able to COM
plete his observations in less than 10
days.
Secretary Baker described General
SCOTS mission as being to assemble
complete information on the border
situation for the use of the depart.
