Austrian sergeant major who escaped

Ger of the Cossacks said a Russian or
der had been issued to kill prisoners Of

not to take Germans prisoners but to
kill them. A special order issued Aug.

eryone shall keep in mind that Austri-
ans may be taken prisoner, but that Ger
mans as far as possible, shall be killed
Two other prisoners, German-speaking

FOOD QUESTION
NOW TROUBLING
GERMAN EMPIRE

Berlin, Sept. u, via London, Sept.
13.-The controversy over the methods
employed in connection with the food
dictatorship has now supplanted the
submarine issue in the conservative
and other newspapers which are oppos-
ed to the chancellor. These newspapers
are engaged in arguing with Adolph
Won Batocki, head Of the food regu-
lation board, the pros and cons Of COM
pulsory production as opposed to an
increase or abolition Of maximum
prices as the method Of charging the
production Of foodstuffs. Herr Won
Batocki has declared himself an oppo-
nent Of the theory that the food prob
lem could best be solved by compul-
sorry methods; that is by prescribing
what farmers should plant. But he also
has little sympathy with the demand
Of the Agrarians for increase or re-
moval of maximum prices to encourage
production. Accordingly the present
system will continue.

ILLINOIS PRIMARY 0WDENIS

Chicago, Sept. 13.-Former Congressman
Frank O. Lowden of Oregon, ILL.,, and
Gov. Edward F. Dunno were nominated
by large pluralities for governor by the
Republicans and Democrats respectively
in the Illinois primaries today, according
to estimates tonight Lowden carried
Chicago by plurality of 10000 and esti-
mates based on incomplete returns place
his plurality at more than 10000. Dunno
apparently carried Chicago over William
B. Brinton Of Dixon by more than 10000
and is running on the basis Of about to
/ over him down state.
Early returns indicated that DUNES
plurality for the entire state would equal
or exceed Lowdens in the Republican
race. Brinton was endorsed by Roger
G. Sullivan. Early estimates apparently
indicated the nomination Of Elsa Williams
Of Pittsfield and Everett Jennings of Chi
cago as Democrat candidate for con-
gressmen at large. Former State Senator
William A. Mason and Burmese NJ Chip
perfield, both Of Chicago, were rolling up
pluralities down state for the Republican

THE NOMINEE
IN WASHINGTON

Seattle, Wash. Sept. 13.-United
States Senator Miles Poindexter, who
was elected as a Republican six years
ago and who joined the Progressive
party four years ago, was renominat-
ed as the Republican candidate for
senator in yesterdays primary cleo
ton. defeating William E. Humph-
rey. now representative in Congress
from the First District, by a plurality
estimated at 1000.
Henry Mcbride Of Seattle, who was
governor from 1901 to 1905, was nom.
mated as the Republican candidate
for governor. Mcbride was a leader OF
the Progressive party four yeal's.

owing to the lack Of contests. George
Turner, former United States senator,
appears to have been nominated for
senator. Ernest Lister was nominated
for governor.

for Congress Of the following:
Republicans-John F. Miller, Rep.
Lindley H. Hadley. Albert Johnson
and w. L. LaFollette. Tom Cookery

VOTERS
REN0M|NATE
SENATOR PACE

Burlington, VT, Sept. .13.-Revised
primary returns from four-ffth Of the
state today increased the lead Of Unit
ed States Senator Carroll S. Page, Re-
publican, in the party contest for re-
nomination over Governor Charles w.
Gates and former Governor Allen M.
Fletcher and apparently changed the
previously indicated victory Of John
e. Weeks. into a defeat by Roger
Hulburd in the Republican contest for
lieutenant governor.
While Weeks was leading earlier in
the day, the change in the standing Of
the candidates followed the receipt of
belated returns from Hulburd's home
county, which gave him a large plu-
rality. With all except 4s of the 2s4
precincts heard from. the vote for
lieutenant governor Stood Hulburd
14,67S; Weeks 1888.
It was believed that the final result
would not be known until the official
vote has been tabulated by the Sec
rotary Of state.
