AUSTRIAN LINER,
 UNARMED, IS SUNK
TOrpedOed In Adriatic, De-
 CIareS Berlin.
by American Press Association.

The Austrian passenger liner Dubrov. nix has been tOrpedOed and sunk by an enemy submarine in the Adriatic without any warning, according to dis patches from Berlin. The Dubrovnik was not armed.
 An official dispatch from Rome an nounced that an Austrian transport was sunk in the lower Adriatic by a French submarine. This is the only tOrpedOing that has been mentioned from Rome for several days. It is pos sible that the vessel tOrpedoed and de clared by the Austrians to be passen- ger liner is the same steamer which the Italians assert was carrying SUD- plies.
 The DubrOvnik was a steel screw steamer displacing 4,238 tons. 3SO feet long, with a forty-nine foot beam. She was built in 1912 and registered at the port of Ragusa, in Da1matia.
 Unless American citizens were on board the torpedoed liner the United States government will take no action. This was the view of officials.
 The attack on the Dubrovnik, even if illegal. would be placed alongside such cases as the Yasaka Maru and the Cymric, Japanese and British ships. re- spectively. which were tOrpedoed with out warning, but on which there were no American citizens.

TELEGRAPHERS STRIKE NEAR.
Discharge of Chicago Men Is Declared
 to Show Trend.

The discharge of twenty-two teleg raphers by the Western Union com pany in Chicago is looked upon by the telegraphers as indicating a possibility of national strike ahead of time.
 President $. J. KOnenkamp in an off cial notice to the members of the Com mercial Photographers Union of Amer ica stated that general demands would be made by the telegraphers ill June and that there was great expectation that the telegraphers would be able to get their demands without strike by being strongly enough organized to convince the Western Union company that it would be useless to give battle to the national union. The telegra- phers were nevertheless warned to be prepared for any emergency which might arise.

ARMY PLANS ARE CHANGED
Three Departments Created in the
Border Zone.

Washington, July 4.-With more
than 100000 troops assembling along
the Mexican border the war depart
ment took steps to decentralize direct
administration of the 1,SO0-mile from
tier in the interest of efficiency, and
probably to pave the way for the ap.
pointment Of a supreme commander to
coordinate all military activities on
the international line.
The border, formerly in the South
ern department from the Gulf of Mex
leo to California, now is divided into
three military departments, command
ed by Major General Frederick Fun
ston, Brigade General John J. Per
shng, and Major General j. Franklin
Bell.
War department officials said the
new order, which automatically re-
lieves General Funston of supreme
command on the border and the enor-
nous responsibilities that have crowd
ed upon him. had no Significance as
indicating preparation for war.

ARRESTED FOR KILLING
A TWO YEAR OLO STEER

Deputy Sheriff VIM. Engle and w.
G. Brown, government farmer, ar
rested Antoine Finley and an Indian
named Fatty Eneas last Sunday even
ing, charged with killing two year old
steer belonging to the Sisters at St.

plant and waived examination. They
were taken to Missoula Monday and
are now in Jail awaiting the action of

The officers learned of the killing and
visited the scene of where it was re-
ported to have taken place and some
good detective work was done by them
in uncovering the evidence. The hide,
head and feet had been thrown into a
pot hole and Deputy Sheriff Engle
waded around in the water at times up
to his chin before he recovered the
hide. After securing this evidence the
home of Finley was visited, where
much of the meat was found. and up
on being pressed for an explanation
the suspected men acknowledged their
guilt.

FLATHEAD PEOPLE
ATTEND STAMPEDE

Roman and the surrounding country
celebrated in Missolua rather extens-
lively this year. The town was about
deserted Tuesday, as most everyone
who went to Missoula had left the day
before or very early that morning.
Many more would have made the trip
but for the statements that the roads
were almost impossible and the indi-
cations here seemed to bear out the
story. The rain all day Sunday and up
to noon Monday had made sea of mud
around town and only few braved the
elements to venture away in their autos
Monday afternoon. Each mile on the
road, however, proved better roads and
by the time Post creek was reached the
roads were fairly good, and from the
they were fine. From there on in ex-
cept just above Arlee no better roads
could have been wished for. Had these
facts been known all those in Roman
with machines would undoubtedly have
gone to the Stampede. Early Tuesday
morning the base ball boys and sew
eral more loads of people started and
arrived in good time to see the Wood
Ticks clean US up.
The Stampede attracted most every
body in the afternoon and the events
on the program were very good. The
riding, roping, bull-dogg!ng and races
were exciting and everybody seemed to
be getting their moneys worth. All
the seats in the grand stand were sold
out before noon and the bleachers were
crowded full and many stood around
the fences enclosing the track There
was the greatest assemblage of auto
mobiles in the space reserved for park
ing purposes than was ever seen in
Western Montana. Taken all in all,
everybody enjoyed the trip and aside
from it taking so much money out of
the community which should have been
retained at home, the Stampede was a
success.
1t would be impossible to mention all
those who were seen in Mlssoula from
this section without omitting somebody, |
SO the effort will not be made.
