Boston-An unidentified submar-
inc off the New England Coast was
reported by the steamship Bowie at
time when the steamship lane to
Europe was dotted with munition
laden ships just released from the
embargo placed on their movements
after the German submarine raid of
Nantucket.
The reports Of the strange sub
marine were coincident with an
nouncements that a feet Of British
cruisers and destroyers was off the
coast and that virtually the entire
available destroyed fotilla OF the
Atlantic fleet. Of the United States
Navy was on neutrality duty. That
the American destroyers were con-
Quoting an active investigation Of sto-
ries of secret submarine bases on this
coast was indicated in dispatch from
Bar Harbor, Maine, which said the de-
stroyer Paulding, sent out from the
Newport naval base, made an ex-
haustive search Of the coast between
Bar Farbor and Rockland. There was
not q core or rock inlet that escap-
ed the sharp scrutiny Of the destroy
er's crew. At dusk the Paulding put
back to Rockland and it was under
stood that she had discovered moth
ing suspicious.
Other destroyers known to be OF
the coast and believed to be engaged
in much the same work as the Pauld-
ing are the McDougal, Tanning and
Warrington. The McDougal, during
the evening anchored at Eastport, IN
proximity to the Canadian border.
The presence Of these destroyers in
Eastern Maine waters recalled ru2-or5
that have persisted for months that
Teutonic s,mpathizers had a hidden
wireless station somewhere in the
vicinity of Bar Harbor and that there
was a suspicion also that they were

States, shipping men say. offer better
advantages for submarines having de-
signs on allied supply ships. Submer-'
sibles operating from one Of the in
Vulnerable isolated coves on the
Maine coast, it is pointed out, could
threaten both the steamship lane to
Europe and the transport ships.

ALLIES INSIST On
SEARCHING MAILS
LATEST REPLY TO AMERICAN
PROTESTS RElTERATES CLAIM
TO RIGHT.
U. S. DOES NOT ADMIT THIS
Promise to Remedy Any Faults,
Abuses of Serious Mistakes in Gen.
sorship That May Be Brought to
Attention of Allied Governments.

Washington.-In their last reply to
american protests against lnterfer-
ences with neutral mails just made
public, by the State Department, the
Allied governments reiterate their
right to intercept and search all gen.
uine mail found On neutral vessels
on the high seas or in allied ports but
they promise to remedy "any faults,
abuses or serious mistakes" in CEN
sorship that may be brought to their
attention. They declare unjustiled by
facts the American charge that illegal
juridustion has been gained by diver
sion of neutral ships from the high
seas into the territorial waters Of the
Allies. The next move of the Ameri-
can Government has not been deter
mined
The note, transmitted jointly by
the British and French governments
was delivered to the State Depart
ment by the embassies several days
ago has just been made public by
agreement of the governments con-
cerned. 1t makes reply to Secretary
Lansings memorandum Of May "a in
which the United States declared the
Allies had been guilty of "lawless
practices" in their mail censorship
methods and that "only radical
change, restoring to the United
States it's full rights as neutral pow
er will satisfy this government"
The Allies maintain they are sin
cerely endeavoring to avoid any en-
croachment on the legitimate exer-
else of the rights Of inoffensive neu-
trail commerce" and suggest that the
Hague convention ruoted in the
American memorandum is not bind
ing because it has not been ratified
by several belligerent powers, though
the allied policy has been guided by
the intention it expresses.
The note is nearly 5000 words in
length. 1t argues that the United
States and the Allies agree that the
postal union convention does not ap-
ply and that postal packages may be
examined to see if they contain con-
traband.

QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take u Glass Of Salts III Your Back
Hurts or BLADDER Troubles You.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make n mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally
says a well-known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which excites the
kidneys, they become over-worked
from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons
from the blood. then we get sick.
Nearly all rheumatism. headaches
liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness,
sleeplessness and urinary disorders
come from ssluggih kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts
or if the urine is cloudy, offensive,
full of sediment, irregular OF pas
sage or attended by a sensation oil
scalding, stop eating meat and get
about four ounces of lad Salts from
any pharmacy; take a tablespoon
full in a glass of water before break
fast and in few days your kidneys
will act fine This famous salts Is
made from the ecid of grapes and
emon Juice, combined with lithiai

to flush and stimulate the kidneys

TERRELL IS BlANKEO
BY C0MPERE WEDNESDAY
NANCE'S PLUNGERs LAND ONLY
FOR THREE SAFE BLOWS
IN THE GAME.
Series Of Three Games Protested by
Manager Poindcxter on Grounds
Terrell Playing Fourteen
Men.

After losing two straights to the
Terrell team the Athletics came back
Wednesday and scored a victory in
a pretty and game against that
team. Compere turned the trick,
land did it nicely. allowing only three
safe blows throughout the nine in
!nings. Bauer, for Terrell, was al
$50 very effective and allowed only
three hits during the game. In blank
ing the visitors Compere pitched one
lof the best games of the season. The
only score made by Waxahachie came
in the fifth when Griggs was walk
led, stole second, was sacrificed TO
third and scored on scratch hit by
IGober.
The feature play of the game came
lin the ninth inning when Manager
Kid Nance got into the game as a
pinch hitter. Compere walked Will
hanson, McMahan popped out to
Gardner. Palmer was hit by pitched
ball and Moseley hitting for Meason
was safe on Griggs' error, filling the
bases with only one out. Manager
Nance then came to the bat. Fans
who have followed this big fellow
through many Texas league season
1felt themselves slipping. 1t was the
first time Nance has appeared as q
lpinch hitter and it was feared he
might deliver the goods. Instead of
Swinging at the ball Nance laid it
down. Compere made pretty pick
lup and pitched it to Smith at home
plate to retire Wilkinson. Smith
doubled to Gardner at first and
caught Nance, ending the fastest
game of the season in most spec
ltacular play.
When Waxahachie came to bat
| in the third inning Manager Poindex-
ter made formal protest on the
games played Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, alleging that Manager
Nance had too many men in uniform.
The protest will be passed up to
President Castelar, for decision.
The bylaws provide that no team n
! the Central Texas league shall have
more than thirteen men in uniform.
and it is alleged that Nance had foul
teen. The decision hinges on the evi-
dence of the umpire. The score:
