Believes He Can Labor More Successfully for Prepar-
 edness in Capital
1 INFERENCE DRAWN BY
 LIMITATION BEARERS
Think He Will Devote His Attention to Pressing Legislation Through Congress Rather Than to
 Speechmaking
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Washington, February 7.-(Speciai) That the President, reaching the con clusion that he can battle more suc- cessfully for preparedness as a d. rector of legislation than as an orator. has practically abandoned his plan to repeat through the south his western junket trip, was the inference drawn this afternoon by southern represent ,atives who carried him urgent invi- ,ations to visit Dixie.
 Practically every state was repre- sented by those who carried messa ges. Senators Bankhead and Underwood and Representative Dent waited on the President for the purpose of extending the invitation of Montgomery. They were immediately preceded by Sena- tors Shields and Lea of Tennessee, and succeeded by Senator Ransdell and Broussard of Louisiana
 To them all, President Wilson ex- pressed his gratitude, and directed his secretary carefully to preserve the in- vitations to the end that if he decided to go south he could give each his careful consideration.''
 As reported heretofore in this corre- spondence, the President has been ad- dressed by leading democrats to tackle the preparedness question as if he were a practical politician, and abandon a campaign of speech making which, de- spite obvious partial success. could not of it's own virtue produce the desired result.
 It is regarded as possible that the President has needed that advice, and will immediately proceed to direct leg islation in order that the strength of his propaganda, through actual test, might be developed. The situation at present is regarded as chaotic.

THINKS KITCHENER
 MAY LOSE HIS JOB
London Sketch Says Sir William Robertson Will Take Over Active
 Direction of War

London, February 7.-Changes of great importance in the direction of the war are contemplated, says the Daily Sketch. This organ asserts that Earl Kitchener will probably leave the war office.
 The Daily Sketch also says Sir Will liam Robertson, now chief of staff, probably will take over active direc- tion of the war without interference except from the cabinet as whole and that a civilian of real ability for organization will become secretary for war.
 In event that Earl Kitchener leaves the war office, the Daily Sketch adds he will undertake work of an import ant character elsewhere.

.LUS|TAN|A CASE UP
 IN CABINET TODAY
Issue Is Regarded as Practi- cally Settled in High
 Official Circles

Washington, February 7.-President Wilson will take up with his cabinet tomorrow the latest draft of the pro- posed communication which Germany hopes will bring the negotiations over the Lusitania disaster to a termina- ton satisfaction to the United States Official indication or announcement whether the offer of the Berlin gov ernment Is satisfactory Is expected soon thereafter.
 The President did not request Secre- tary Lansing to come to the White House for conference today. The Sec retary expects to discuss the latest proposal with the President tomorrow, and it Is believed in Teutonic diplomatic circles that Count Von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, may be summoned to the state department during the day and informed of the decision of the United States. Confidential advices received today from high official quarters are to the effect that the expressions of optimism regarding the outcome of the negotia- tlons, which have been heard in certain official and diplomatic circles, are not without foundation Chairman Stone of the Senate foreign relations committee. decldfeu aIler conIerTiHB Wlln dumlnlS- tration officials that lie believed the case practically settled"
 It was authoritatively said at the state department that the position Of the government today in regard to the Lusitania case was identical with the position taken at the time the last note was dispatched to Germany. Secretary Lansing flatly denied the truth of a statement attributed in press dispatches to Dr. Alfred Zimmermann. German un- der secretary of foreign affairs. to the effect that new demands had been made in the case at a time when the German government considered tho nou gotiations virtually were at an end.

AGAINST TARIFF BOARD

Washington, February 7.--lSpecial.} W hiie it is regarded as probable thfst uis,s: the snpport Of the republicaus voting IS, a party. the Presidents bill creating a tariff commission will be enacted into law, Senator Underwood stated this aft ernoon that he would oppose that pas
 sage and make speech against the measure.
 1t is his opinion that a new department to discharge the functions of tariff adjust ment is unnecessary, and that it's creation would mean an additional and unneces- sary outlay of capital. He holds, too. that in moment of abnormal conditions here and abroad, tariff commission could possibly serve no purpose.

13S MODES PASS
 ON SECOND EXAM
Number of Annapolis Cadets Who Must Resign Reduced by Re
 examination Board

Washington, February 1.-The Acade- re-examining 220 midshipmen who failed in their examinations, has reduced the number recommended for resignation to s2 This latter number may still be fur ther reduced.
 Secretary Daniels, in reviewing the recommendation. says he will give the sG all the consideration consistent with the policy of maintaining the lndard of the academy.
 The increase in failures in the semi annual examinations this year more than double the usual average comes at a time where there is a pressing need of naval officers Fortunately, officials ex- plalned, the reinstatement of many of the 82 may be possible because about one-half of them were members of the fourth class. Those reinstated would begin their studies next June and lose only six months actual time.
 If was pointed out that the midwinter sxarninaticP was tho first held since the recent investigation at the academy which resulted in the abolition of the so-called dope system in preparation for examinations,
 ''''The average grade of 62,5 per cent re- quired in examinations,' Secretary Dan- iels said, 'is sufficiently low. Most in structions of a similar kind require an average of 70 per cent and we do not want officers in the navy who cannot maintain the required standard or higher. A 695 per cent officer is nothing for the navy to be proud of.'
 Former Secretary Won Meyer, once in voked special ruling reducing the fixed standards so as to permit number of cadets to pass an examination.

 Though not expensive. the Green Monster buildings are unusually well planned and arranged for mining camp structures.
 Walter Harvey Weed. who ranks among the tour or five leading seol- ogists and mining experts of the United States, is examining the Cop per Chief for the Green Monster com pany.
 It has been generally supposed that the Green Monster people would be guided in the Copper Chief deal by the advice of Horace V. Winchell, who completed his examination Of the pro perty over a week ago. Such is not the case. however. and when the stock holders meet here next Monday to de- eide whether they shall pay s1,25O,O lor the Copper Cnief they will nave reports from two of the greatest geol- ogists in the world.
 Dr. Weed has been spending prac- tically all his time at the Copper Chief for the last week. with the eX- ception Of two or three little excur- sions to nearby property. Early this week he went over the Mingus group. owned by Victor Clibborn and J. H. Onsrud, for a syndicate of Prescott investors who may take over that pro- perty.

GREEN MONSTER HAS PROOF or OXIDATION
 THAT POINTS ID ORE
Exploration Has Been So
 Promising That Company
 Decides to Make Its First Shaft of 5 Compartments.

JEROME. Dec. 9.-That the i'm mense outcrop of mineralized quartz on the Revenue claim of the Green Monster goes down, has now been proven. The drifts being run east and west from the Revenue tunnel are both in recomposed and more or less oxidized quartz, and they have opened several small lenses of chalcopyrite ore that runs about two and half per cent copper. There are numerous signs of the white intrusive quartz which is such a prominent feature of United Verde geology The vertical depth is about 200 feet.
 So satisfactory have been the It cent determinations on the Revenue that the Green Monster people have decided to make their first shaft three compartments instead of two. The site has now been chosen, on the footwall side of the Revenue outcrop. It is an exceptionally favorable ioca- tion for it is easy to build road all around is and there is ample dumping ground. Two or three teams and as many men can do all necessary grad ing in three or four days.
 The sinking of the shaft should be under way by the middle of Decem- Der at the latest. Nothing is delaying except the lack of the three big cleo. tric transformers ordered months ago The manufacture of the transformers was delayed by strike in the General Electric company's plant. They are supposed to have been shipped Novem- Der 20 and will probably bt at Clark dale in the course of a week
 Developments in the Gorge tunnel on the Cliff claim, have also been satisfactory. This tunnel has been driven ahead 130 feet, from a certain bend or elbow. since the Green Mon. ster people started to work there. The formation appears to be chaning as the tunnel draws near the contact, and much moisture is coming in.
 CTosscuts are being run from the 40-fOot incline shaft recently sunk to prove up the outcrop On the Protector claim. This quartz OutcIop is heavy with iron and the shaft opened little seams and punches of ore from ten feet down. It is evident that import ant copper values have leached out The plan, unless the crosscuts dis close some discouraging condition. is to run a crosscut from the Badger tunnel to tap the Protector outcrop at depth.
 "A snow ing similar tO that on tne Wedge claim has been opened in the last few days on the Manzanita claim the western part of the Green Monster estate. A prospect hole has been sunk into decomposed quartz and diorite. all mineralized
 The new shafts on the Missouri and Amazan claims are being con. tinued but no important determina tions have been made for several weeks. Both are still in the oxidized zone

Good Meeting of
County Agents

E. w. Hall, county agricultural
agent, on his return from the Fargo
meeting of county agents, stated that
one of the principal subjects discuss
ed was the federal rural credit act.
Opinion was unanimous that the law
is going to work great good for the
western part of the United States,
especially North Dakota. Frank
Wilson, who has been working in con-
nection with the federal farm loan
board, addressed the county agents
and went into the details of the law.
Roderick Mckenzie, one of the lead
ing agricultural authorities of Can
ada. was present and discussed var
ious questions with the agents. It.
was his opinion that cooperative in
stitutions would prove of great bene-
fit to North Dakota farmers if con-
Quoted along strictly business lines.
Mr.. Hall intends to give particular
attention to supplying information
concerning the farm loan law and as
sisting farmers who are interested in
il.
