The same people who heard Roose-
velt's 'call to arms" two months ago
rocked the hall with cheers for peace.
I'VE must respect the sovereignty
of Mexico" the President said at one
time. II say this for the benefit Of
those who wish to butt in. Mexico
feels we do not wish to help her, but
to possess her. This is due to the
manner in which some have tried to
exploit her possessions. l will not
help these men,"
"Hurrah For Next President"
The President sounded call to busi-
ness men of the world to respond to
the new demands of craftsmanship.
Lift your eyes to the horizon OF
business" he urged in closing, "and
with the thought that you stand for
the liberties of mankind, sell your
goods and try to convert the people to
the principle of America"
AS the President concluded, some
one shouted EtIJurrah fOr tho rovA

TO PROTECT GOVERNORS LIFE
st. Paul Police Guard Burnquist
Against Attempts of Strikers.

ST. Paul, July II. = Rumors that
group Of 1. w. w. members were en-
route from Chicago to participate in
the Mesaba range mine troubles, led
st. Paul police to take special precau-
tons to protect the life of Governor
Burnquist from possible attempts at
assassination. Special police were ap.
pointed to guard the states executive
Governor Burnquist was inclined to
take the need of precautionary meas
ures lightly and to adopt the attitude
that the less fiery of the strikers
would recognize his action as being
only in the interests of law and order
and not directed against the organiza-
ton.

TROOP TRAIN ROUTE SECRET
THIRD MINNESOTA INFANTRY
STILL BEHIND SCHEDULE.
Military Rules Observed Closely AS
Guards Move SouthWard-No Ref
erence to Destination.

Somewhere in Iowa (Enroute with
the Third Infantry, July 10.-Bare-
foot boys of southern Minnesota dug
their toes into the hot sand and wish
ed they we're "growed up" so they
could be "soljers," when the Third in
fantry, M. N. G., passed through their
respective towns on the way to the
Mexican border.
The trains left Fort Smelling nearly
an hour behind schedule and have
been behind time all the way so far.
No References TO Route.
Shortly after leaving the Twin Cities,
Col. F. E. Resche gave orders to ~
company, the newspaper contingent,
that no references we're to be made to
the route bging taken. AS result,
northern Minnesotans will not know
where the regiment is to be stationed
for probably week or more. Fort
Worth or Brownsville, Texas, are the
most common guesses.
Guards Mounted On Platforms.
Military forms are being observed
closely. No enlisted man is allowed
to pass from one car to another and
guards are mounted regularly at two
hour intervals on each platform.
Thirteen sleeping cars were picked
up early in the evening.
Lunch Of sandwiches with hard-boil-
ed eggs and water caught the enlist
ed men by surprise, but there was no
complaint when they found that kitch-
ems had been overlooked. This was re-
NEEDED later.

Storm Death Toll May Exceed 100.

Washington, July 11.-Over hastily
repaired telegraph wires bearing brief
dispatches, news began reaching here
of the terrific hurricane which over
turned schooners and barges, battered
wharves and took a heavy toll of life
along the gulf. From 48 to 60 hours
old, the dispatches still were incom-

that water still is high in the rivers
even for miles inland frc N the gulf,

flooded. The loss or life is said to be

DARING GERMAN SEAMEN SLEEP
QUIETLY, GUARDED BY STRONG
SQUAD OF BALTIMORE
POLICE.
OFFICIAL PACKET FOR
COUNT Won BERNSTORFF
Vessel Will Take On Board for Return
Trip to Germany Metal and Rubber
Needed by Kaiser's Armies
More SubmersbIes Coming,
Captain Says.

Baltimore, July 1.-THE daring
German seamen who brought the sub
marine merchantmen Deutschland
across the Atlantic slept quietly dur
ing the night aboard their vessel,
which law moored to a carefully
screened pier guarded by strong
squad OF Baltimore police. Captain
Paul Koenig, the skipper, had deliver
ed his papers to the North German
Lloyd office, entered his vessel at tlse
custom house as a commerce carrier
and had presented to the German en-
bassy official a packet Of correspond
ence for Count Won Bernstorff.
Ready to Discharge Cargo.
Now the submarine is ready to dis
charge its $1,000,000 cargo of dye stuffs
and take on board for the return trip
to Germany metal and rubber needed
by the Kaiser's armies and navy. The
return merchandise is waiting on the
dock, and the time for leaving port
will depend largely upon plans for
eluding vigiIant enemy cruisers wait
ing outside the entrance to Chesa-
peake bay, for the temperance of
that vessel.
Other Submarines Coming.
One of Captain Koenig's first acts
after he moved his ship up the har-
Dor from quarantine was to announce
that the Deutschland was only one
of fleet of mammoth submersibles
built or building for a regular trans
io11t
He said the next to come would be
the Bremen" and that it might be
looked for within eight weeks.
No Sign of Armament.
Anxious to establish promptly his
peaceful character and to forestall in
yestigation sought by diplomatic rep
resentatives of Allied powers, the Ger
man captain submitted his craft to a
thorough inspection by the surveyor
Of the port and an agent of the de-
partment of justice.
These officers, as we'll as the customs
inspectors and quarantine surgeons,
agreed that there was no sign of arm
ament of any description on board and
that there was no doubt in their
minds about the boat being entitled
to the status of an ordinary merchant
man.
Breaks British Blockade.
At the office of the North German
Lloyd, Captain Koenig issued type
written statement telling of the COM
Ing of other boats like the Deutsch-
land and asserting that his voyage
had broken the British control of the
seas.
At the same time he submitted to
an interview in which he described his
3,S00-mile cruise from Helgoland to
Chesapeake bay. He denied reports
that he had been chased off his course
by enemy warships, declaring that, SO
far as he knew, there was not an Al
lied warcraft in the Atlantic.

Crown Prince Still Pounding
Heavily Against Verdun.

London, July 1.-THE French in
operations south of the Somme have
advanced to within about a mile of
Peronne at present held strongly by
the Germans. They have occupied Hill
81, which commands the Somme to the
southeast of Biaches and have streng-
thened their positions between Biaches
and BarleauX.
Desperate fighting has occurred be-
tween the British and the Germans at
Trones wood against which the Ger
mans launched six desperate attacks.
Five of these were repulsed, accoad-
ing to the British war office, but the
sixth was successful in that it per-
rnttted the Germans to penetrate the
wood where latest reports said the
fighting continued.
British Make Gains.
The British troops, however, made
some gains in the neighborhood of
Ovillers and Laboiselle and in a par
t1cularly powerful attack on the Ger
man position in the Nametz wood sue
ceeded in winning some ground where
previously the resistance had been too
strong to break.
The forces of the German crown
prince are still pounding heavily
against the French positions at Froide
Terre, F1eury and the Fumin wood, in
the Verdun sector, but so far as the
official statements show the actions
have been confined to bombardments.
No Halt in SIav Advance.
There has apparently been no halt
of the Russian advance toward KOvel
in Volhynia. The latest communica-
ton from Russian headquarters shows
that the two opposing armies are in
the midst Of a terrific struggle.
In the Dvina sector and east of Bar
anovichi the Germans have delivered
strong counter attacks and are under
taking extensive offensive operations.
The fighting between the Italians
and Austrians continues with undated
fury, the Austrian official statement
describing the repulse of Alpine forces
between the Brenta and the Etsch riv-
ers, more than 800 Italian dead being
left before the Austrian trenches.
