UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Washing-
ton officials it was authoritatively
stated today have so far received no
report that leads them to believe any
incident connected with the raid of
the U-53 Off Nantucket Saturday night
and Sunday, was in the least viola
tion Of international law. All unoffi-
cial advices, as well as official reports
SO far received, agree thoroughly
with reports made to the navy de-
partment.
Officials declared all evidence leads
them to believe the German U boat
commander exercised most diligent
care not to trespass against interna-
tional law. 1t was pointed out that
in every instance ample time was
given passengers and crew to take to
small boats; that sinkings each time
occurred comparatively close to a
haven of safety and that there have
been no more torpedoings since rough
water has been whipped up by wind.
No Patrol Established.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Secre-
tary Of the Navy Daniels today de-
MED he had established or at this
time proposed to establish neutral
ity patrol along the north Atlantic
coast to prevent infringement of this
country's rights by belligerent ves-
sells.
It was merely report" Daniels
said. There is no intention now to
establish such patrol. The Destroy
ers now out were sent purely to save
life; for no other reason. When this
work is accomplished, they will re-
turn"
Rear Admiral Knight believes the
crew Of the steamer Kingston has
been picked up by an outbound ves-
sci, he reported today to the navy
department. He does not believe, he
said, that the crew has been lost,
principally bcause of the equitable
ness of the weather.
May Cut Cables.
WASHINGTON, Oct 1O-Possibil-
ity that German submarines operating
off the American coast may cut the
Atlantic cables, crippling communica-
tion with Europe or SOW mines in
Transatlantic steamship lanes,
brought new menace into considera-
tion today. What action the United
States could take if the Atlantic
cables were cut, is a matter of doubt,
officials said. When British forces
destroyed German cables, no action
was taken by the United States.
Hold UP immigrants.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Assistant
Secretary of Labor Post today issued
an order to all immigrant stations on
the Atlantic and gulf coasts to hold
up the deportation of undesirable
aliens while the menace of subma-
rine warfare continues.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.l ]
BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 10.-Except for
the bowling forty mile gale that swept
fin from the northeast, last night was
the most quiet night off the New
England coast since the German sub
marine U-53 stood out of Newport
late Sunday. No vessels passing along
the lane" off the Nantucket lightship
cracked their wireless or gave any
other sign of their presence. The Ger
man undersea monsters were equally
quiet and apparently have vanished as
suddenly as they appeared.
The Nantucket radio station report
ed that "all keys were silent" through
out the night and the Charlestown
nevy yard station said they had little
to do and heard nothing from the vi
cinity of the U boat zone. No word
has been heard of the French-Canad-
ion liner Great City, cargoed with con-
traband and bound for st. Nazaire.
France. She left Boston early Monday
morning and was due to pass through
the submarine war zone" some time
Yast night.
The American-Ha liner Kan
san, the only liner carrying munitions
for the allies that escaped being sunk
by the submarine, although her papers
were examined Sunday, has not left
her pier in Charlestown The French
Canadian line office declares that the
shipment Of horses which she stopped
here for on her way from New York
to st. Nazaire has delayed her start,
but it is felt that the kaiser's under
sea navy IS the real cause.
When it became known that the
Kansan stopped at Boston to take on
more grain and two thousand horses
it was the belief in shipping circles
that one of the boats intended to
clay" for her when she left Boston
The Kansan Is an American register
ed vessel, but is under charter to the
French Canadian line.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1O.-A shell

1t is written in the future that
tins nation is to become a great
military nation, no matter what
We may think of it. Our ex-
pandlng commerce will bring this
about inevitably, unless the Eu-
ropean war results in the estab-
lishment of a different system.
Trade calls loudly now, as it al
ways has. for fighting ships and
fighting men. We must forego
trade if We escape increased ar
maments. Such is the course of
history. The big question is,
whe ther the army shall be a
democratic or an imperialistic in
stitution. That is matter that
is in the hands of the people

SPRING CARE OF BEES.
There Should 6s Strong Colonies q
Beginning Of Honey Flow.

Prepared by United States department q
agriculture.
The duty Of the beekeeper in the
spring is to get plenty Of bees in time
for the honey flow. II this is not done
his work is failure. The population
OF the colony is reduced during the
winter. especially where wintering con-
ditions are not the best, and this must
be corrected IL the colony is to get the
full honey crop. 1t is poor beekeeping
TO have weak colonies at the beginning
Of the honey flow from which the sur
plus crop is obtained.
After brood rearing gets under way
bees need three things-room for heavy
brood rearing. an abundance of stores
and protection. A common error is to
cramp the colony by failing to provide
empty cells for the reception of eggs
If In early spring the weather is suit
able and II nectar is available the bees
will add considerably to their boards
Of honey, but they use 1t so rapidly
that 1t is seldom that any gain in the
stores occurs even during fruit bloom.
However, since the weather IL uncer-
tain at this season the beekeeper should
not depend too much on incoming nec-
tar to supply the needs Of his bees. II
they are short Of stores feed a warm
thick sirup made Of granulated sugar
and feed lavishly.
On some warm day the hives should
be opened and given a spring house
cleaning. At this time one wing OF the
queen should be clipped so that when
swarming time comes she cannot fly to
the woods with the swarm. II any
queenless colonies are discovered (hav-
ing no brood they should be united
with colonies having queens. This can
be done simply by setting the queen
less colony on top.
The stimulation to heavy brood rear
ing should occupy six to eight weeks
previous to the surplus honey flow. and
every beekeeper should know when
that comes in his locality II he is a
beginner any beekeeper who is older
In the work can give him that informa-
ton. II colony has good queen and
plenty of empty cells for egg laying. is
well supplied with stores and is pro
tected from cold and wind one may ex-
pect colony which is capable Of stor-
ing the maximum crop.
Having gone to all this trouble to get
plenty of bees In the hive, the bee
keeper will readily see that he should
do everything in his power to prevent
swarming. Swarming just before or
during the honey flow is the greatest
drawback to good crop. Experienced
beekeepers have worked out methods
by which this can largely be prevented,
and every beekeeper should study these
methods.

hours are sometimes spent in removing
them. But. according to Wallace's

farms demonstrated that corn with the
