increased in value more than 5000 in
the last two weeks, while bond paper
and envelopes have gone up 25 per
cent in the same time. Those news
papers throughout the country who
failed to anticipate the shortage of
supply find that their orders will be
seriously delayed through inability to
secure stock.
The following is the text of the no.
tice sent out by the government:
1.-THE attention of the department of
commerce is called, by the president
of large paper manufacturing COM
pany, to the fact that there is a serious
shortage of raw material for the man
ufacture of paper, including rags and
old papers He urges that the depart
ment should make it known that the
collecting and saving of rags and old
papers would greatly better existing
conditions for American manufac-
turers.
Something like $4,000 tons of diff
feIent kinds of paper and paper board
are manufactured every day in the
United States and a large proportion
OF this, after it has served it's purpose,
could be used over again in some class
OF paper large part of it, however,
is either burned or otherwise wasted.
This, Of course, has to be replaced by
new materials. In the early history
of the paper industry publicity was
given to the Importance of saving
rags. 1t is of scarcely less impor-
lance now. The department of COM
merce is glad to bring this matter to
the attention of the public in the hope
that practical results may flow from
it. A little attention to the saving of
rags and old papers will mean genuine
relief to our paper industry and a di-
minishing drain upon our source of
supply of new materials.

INDICTS Won PAPEN
FEDERAL GRAND JURY RETURNS
TRUE BILLS AGAINST OTHERS.
Recalled German Military Attache
Charged With Being In Plot to
Blow Up Welland Canal.

New York, April 1S.-Capt. Franz
Won Papen, recalled military attache
to the German embassy at Washing
ton, was indicted by the federal grand
jury in connection with the alleged
plot to blow up the Welland canal in
September, 1914.
Won Papen was one Of the five per
sons indicted in the case, including
Capt. Hans Tauscher, husband of Cad
ski, the singer, who already is under
arrest charged with being concerned
in the plot.
The indictment is understood to be
based on testimony given before the
jury by Horst Won der Goltz, also
known as Bridgman Taylor, who was
brought here from England last month
after it had been discovered that check
stubs taken from Won Papen on his
return to Germany showed payments
by the military attache to Won der
Goltz.
Won der Goltz is understood to have
testified that Won Papen engineered
the plot to destroy the canal.
The indictment charges, according
to Assistant District Attorney Wood
that Won Papen provided the money
to carry out the plot, which is de-
scribed as a military enterprise" II
alleges that on different dates in Sep
TENDER, 1914, he gave Won der Goltz
checks for 5000, two of them payable
through John T. Ryan of Buffalo.
The indictment also charges thai
Won Papen made arrangements will
those who were to carry out the plot
during visit he made to Baltimore
in August, 1914.
1t was charged when Tauscher wal
arrested that he and four accomplicei
obtained large quantity of dynamite
in New York and took 1t to Niagar;
Falls for the purpose to blowing VI
the Canadian waterway. The plot 70
| some reason was abandoned.
Two others of the five persons in
dicted are Alfred j. Fritzen and Kor
stantin Kovanni. The name of tn
fifth was withheld by the district al
torney.

TO FIGHT ONLY
FOR HUMANITY
PRESIDENT MAKES THIS STATE
MENT TO D. A. r.
DELEGATES APPLAUD HIS WORDS
-~
Wilson Declares That Tradition OF
Our Forefathers Is Only Guide
For the Country To
Follow.
DELEGATES APPLAUD HIS WORDS

Washington, April 1S.-President
Wilson, speaking before the Daughters
OF the American Revolution here, de-
clared that the only excuse for the
United States ever to fight would be in
the cause of humanity. His words were
applauded enthusiastically by dele
gates from all parts of the country.
Tradition is handsome thing in
the proportion to which we live up to
it," declared the president. But we
must never fall below that tradition.
The birth of this nation was signih-
cant because no other nation was ever
born in the world with the purpose OF
serving the rest of mankind.
IF we fall away from the tradition
Of the fathers" said the president,
I'VE have dishonored them. II we for
get the tradition Of the fathers, we
have changed our character; we have
lost an old impulse; we have become
unconscious of the principles in which
the life of the nation itself is rooted
and grounded.
No Excuse But Humanity.
America will have forgotten hel
traditions whenever upon any occa
sion she fights merely for herself un
der such circumstances as will show
that she has forgotten to fight for al
mankind. And the only excuse tina
America can ever have for the asser
ton of her physical force is that sh'
asserts it in behalf of the interest o
humanity.
/ what splendid thing it is toyhav
so singular a tradition, tradition o
unselfishness! When America cease
to be unselfish she will cease to b
America. When she forgets the trad
lions of devotion to human rights |
general, which gave spirit and impuls
to her founders. she will have lost he
title deeds to her own nationality"

A report from General Pershing re-

Wednesday and gave few more de-
tails of the incident that preceded Ma
jor Tompkins' entry of Parral.
He said a captain of General Lozano
visited the American camp Tuesday
night, leaving after breakfast Wednes-
day morning.
1t was his insistent invitation that
they go directly into Parral that
caused Tompkins to enter the city,
but to guard further against any I'M
pleasant incident he sent forward a
courier, but what became of him has
not been learned.

"''... Can't Extend Lines.
General Funston said that the mair
line of communication, now as faI
south as Satevo, could not be extended
further south with the present number
of troops available, and frankly ex
pressed his conviction that operation!
farther south could not be conducted
unless authority was obtained for thu

General Funston explained that tn
