submarine controversy.
President Wilson is being urged by
some of his close advisers to ask the
Germanic allies for definite assurances
that no unarmed ships with Americans
aboard shall be destroyed by any of them
until the passengers have reached place
of safety. The president is said to look
with some favor upon such a proposal,
but has reached no decision. In any
case, he probably will take no steps in
that direction until details of pending
negotiations with these countries have
been cleared up.
Officials are particularly gratified over
Germany's latest note on the destruc-
tion of the American ship William y.
Frye, made public Saturday, because of
its acceptance Of the principle that the
mere placing of noncombatants in life
boats before a prize is destroyed is not a
sufficient guaranty Of safety. This con-
cession. coupled with the offer of Ger
many to pay indemnity for the Lusitania
victims and Ambassador won BernstoriTs

Grizzled foot ball veterans and lead

JOHNSON TELL 5 WHY HUGHES
 LOST OUT

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov II. - Gov ernor Hiram Johnson. who was elected senator from this state by an enor- nous majority, issued a statement in this city today in which he charged the defeat of Hughes in California to the petty plans of some politicians acting in conjunction with certain newspapers who so misused and mis- interpreted the visit of the Republi can candidate to California that John son and his friends were unable to undo the injury they had done Hughes.
 Governor Johnson says that that alone accounts for Wilson's plurality in the state. He charges both Crocker, of the Republican national committee, and Francis Keesling, formerly state chairman of the G. 0. r. in California, with holding Judge Hughes up to the people of California as entirely a re actionary candidate, and says that this lost the Republican nominee a large percentage of the Progressive vote, which under ordinary circum- stances he should have received.

Under the new tariff in order to get any reduction at all it is necessary to ship fifteen tons before any reduction in the freight rate is obtainable. It was during the tesi- mony of MT. Flynn that the special contract between the Carlisle Packing Company and the steamship lines was mentioned. MT. Flynn testified that some COrdova merchants had had goods shipped to them through the Carlisle Packing Company, thus avail ing themselves of a cheaper rate. rate of $6 per ton on staples, while other merchants, shipping direct had paid S14 a ton The absence of the officials of the packing company and the fact that there was no copy of the contract entered into between the steamship company and the cannery in this city made it impossible to get all the information desired on this subject, but it will be gone into more thoroughly when the hearing takes place in Seattle next month.
