Claim Contradieted
The Austrian claim that the Petro-
lite's captain voluntarily gave up sup
plies taken from the steamer by the
submarine commander is fatty contra
dicted as are the claims that warning
shots were fired across the Petrolite's
bow before she was shelled and that
her appearance was such as to JUSTIFY
the submarine commander in mistak-
ing her for a cruiser.
Naval authorities here" says the
note, agree that there could have
been no danger of the ship ramming
straight for the submarine and was
under power and even then the sub
marine could have so Unanswered as
to avoid collision. The Petrolite was
two miles away from the submarine.
The engines and funnel Of the Petro-
lite were at the stern and from the
general appearance of the ship no ex-
perienced naval officer could have be-
lieved that it had opportunity or suf
f1cient speed to attack, even II it had
been steaming directly toward the
submarine.

Ell Paso. June 2S.-Gen. Jacinto Ire
vino has ordered that the American
prisoners informed in the penitentiary
at Chihuahua City be taken to Juarez
and there, with their arms and accout-
rements he released. This information
was received at the Juarez command
ancia today.
Mexican authorities asserted that
Gen. George Bell. Jr., commanding the
Ell Pasc military district had been no
titled Of Cen Trevino's order and that
the prisoners are expected to reach
Juarez tomorrow. General Bell did
not deny the report, but refused to
discuss if.
There are % American troopers held
at Chihuahua City, including Lem
Spillsbury, the Mormon scout.
Army headquarters here said any re-
port on the Mexican advances would

HERSEY
NOT FOR SENATE
BUT FOR HOUSE

Portland special to the Lewiston
Journal says:
Ira Hersey is to withdraw as candidate
for United States senator in the Republi-
can primaries and go in for the nominal
ton for Congress.
This announcement, semi-authentic, is
backed by definite statement that gives
it authority.
The shift is also natural. No one be-
lieved that Guernsey would go into the
fight without some assurances. 1t seemed
futile to divide the territory. Evidently
it was contingency to Guernsey's an
nouncement
The situation is now clear and clean
cut The Fourth District has nominee
for Governor: the First District has a
nominee for United States senator. For
several years the only district unrepre-
sented in Congress has been the Second.
The Second District nominee for United
States Senate ran second in the primaries
for the regular term.

speech. Mr.. Sullivan apologized and pro-
ceeded, but the strain under which he
was laboring proved too much for him.
Earlier in the day the justice ad over
ruled the motion of the defence to quash
the indictment on the ground that the
statute under which it was drawn did not
provide for the trial of E. man who COM
mitted treason outside the realm. The er-
fort to establish this was admittedly the
prisoners main defence. 1t was announce
ed that no witnesses were being produced
in his half, mainly because such witness
es must be secured from Germany and
this was not permitted.
With the failure Of this move, Sir Rog-
err himself was called upon to make a
statement to the jury.
This statement. which was not given
under oath and consequently permitted of
no cross-examination. was a fiat denial
that the knight had worked in the inter
ests of Germany or that he had accepted
German gold as bride.
