ALBANIAN WOMEN
EAT DEAD HORSES
Appeal For American Fdir
Play Made by Balkan
Relief Fund

While the people of the United
States have been sending thirty mil
lion dollars worth of relief to Europe
and Turkey, two hundred thousand
women and children in Albania have
died of starvation.
While each woman and child in
Belgium has had plenty to eat, wo-
men and children in Albania have
gnawed at the carcasses of dead horses
in the streets.
William Willard Howard, of New
York, who has returned from his
trip to this hunger zone of Europe
predicts that the entire population OF
Albania will die of famine and pesti-
lence unless helped. He says that in
Albania corn is fifty dollars a bushel
flour eighty dollars a sack, and
macaroni five dollars a pound.
The tragedy of Albania says Mr.
Howard, is that a nation is dying OF
hunger while the people of the United
States, laden with gifts for the rest OF
Europe and for Turkey, pass by on
the other side.
Thirty millions of dollars have
been given by the people of the
United States for relief work OF
various kinds in Belgium, Polane
Armenia, Syria and the warning
dred thousand women and children in
Southeastern Europe have starved to
death unheeded and uncared for. Not
one woman or child has cied of hunger
in Belgium; two hundred thousand in
Albania.

Loss of Bremen Is Now
Conceded by Ranking German
Diplomats at Washington

Washington, d C., Oct. 19.--Loss of
the German submarine merchantmen
Bremen virtually was conceded to-day
by ranking Teutonic diplomats in po-
sition to be familiar with the move
ments of the vessel. The Bremen is
now one month overdue.
II was admitted that German off,
cials, not only in this country. but in
Berlin, were without information as to
the fate of the Bremen. All they know
is that she set out for America from
Bremerhaven and that she should
have arrived at an American port soon
after the middle of last month. 1t is
regarded as doubtful that accurate in
formation concerning the fate of the
vessel will be available until after the
close of the war; If then.
The disappearance of the Bremen
will not cause abandonment of the
project to send merchant submarines
regularly from Germany to the United
States, it was said. There appeared to
be reason to expect that another sub
sea freighter, either the Deutschland
or some other. would reach an Ameri-
can port some time within the next
month.
German officials in Washington do
not believe the Bremen could have
fallen into the hands of the British
unless she had some accident to her
machinery. They pointed out that
unlike naval submarines, merchant
submarines avoid all localities fire.
quented by shipping, and therefore are
not open to the same risks.
When the Bremen was week over
due no anxiety regarding her was felt.
The Deutschland was just week over
due when she came through the Vir-
ginia Capes and the weather conditions
then were much better than those
which have prevailed during the last
month and a half When the vessel
was two weeks overdue anxiety was
apparent in various Teutonic quar-
ters and word of her arrival was anx-
iously awaited.
Since then hope that the submarine
might be safe has dwindled each day
and to-day she was spoken OF as haV-
ing been lost.
Reports that the Bremen had ar
rived safely in New London. Conn.,,
were published in newspapers in many
countries two weeks ago. At New
London a dock had been especially ar
ranged for the reception of the craft

Reported Arming of All
British Merchantmen Liable
to Endanger u. S. Relations

Berlin, Oct. II. Via London, Oct 10.
--(Delayed) The Kriegs Zeitung, the
evening edition of the Lokal AnZeiger.
publishes a report that the British
have ordered the arming of all mer-
chantmen and says that as a result
Germany may be forced to take up a
sharper submarine campaign with
consequent enlargement of German
American relations. 1t continues:
IF it is true that England actually
intends to arm all its merchantmen
with heavy and therefore far-carrying
guns and thus label them plainly as
warships intended for attacks, it cam
not be avoided that whether we wish
to or not we must give sharper ten
dency to our submarine campaign"

Mrs. Andrew Rustemeyer and
little daughter returned on Tues
day nights train from Lewiston
where they have been for the past
two weeks having the little one S
eyes treated.
The frequent SHOWS during the
past few weeks have kept the
ground so moist that it has been
impossible to do any spring work
and as consequence spring plow-
ing and seeding is fully a month
later than last year. AS a result
the planting of the crops will be
delayed materially this year and
many farmers may have to sum
merfallow land that they would
otherwise have planted to crops.
