Sun1ower Oil Is
 Profitable Crop

Cologne, Germany, May 2s.-Garden planting of sun1owers for the sake of the oil contained in the seeds was all the rage last year. It was also suff1- ciently successful so that it is being urged large scale this spring. The very latest suggestion is that the school children of Germany shall utilize part of their spare time by systematically planting sunfiowers along every mile of road in the empire.

Funston Without Any Report.

San Antonio, Tex, March 25.-No
report was received today from Cen
eral Pershing, and Funston's only
information on the developments in
Mexico was border gossip.
Pershing's intimation yesterday thai
a more adequate means for delivering
supplies for his troops was advisable
has increased the anxiety at army
headquarters here to get a decision
from Carranza on permission to use
the Mexican railroads.
If Carranza permits the transporta-
tion of supplies over the northwestern
railroad to the American troops IN
Mexico, permission to ship over the
National railway VIII probably be
asked by the United States, it was
stated at Funston's headquarters here
today. Since the request for the
Northwestern has been made, the dis
position of the American troops has
been such that the National railway
could now be used to better adyan-
tage.
Colonel Foltz, commanding at
Douglas, Ariz., reported to Funston
today that there are only two hun
dred troops in the garrison at Aqua
Prieta and that no others have been
brought up. Funston has ordered a
battalion of the fourth infantry, sta
toned at Del Rio, to Maria and Pre-
sidio, Texas, answering the appeals of
the citizens of those two border
towns.

London, March 25.-Twen-
ty-hve Americans were aboard
the channel steamer Sussex,
which was seriously damaged
near the French coast yester-
day and towed to Boulogne
this morning, according to rail
road officials who had paSsen-
ger lists.
Information received at Dow
er says that it is certain that
some lives were lost, probably
by the explosion which caused
the damage.
Miss Baldwin, daughter of
prominent American resident
of Paris, was seriously injured.
Edward Huxley, president of
the United States Rubber Com
pany, and Francis Drake, the
European manager of the same
company, are among the Amer
leans rescued. They report that
there was a heavy loss of life,
including several Americans.
Miss Baldwin's father and mother
were on board the vessel All were
taken to Boulogne Miss Baldwin's leg
was broken. Miss Alice Ruis of Colo
rado and Wilder c. Penfeld of Mer-
ton College at Oxford are other Amer
leans saved.
The opinion of the passengers is
divided as to whether the vessel was
a victim of torpedo or mine.
The explosion was terrific and tore
the front part of the steamer into
pieces, killing or injuring number
of persons. Many were wounded by
flying splinters.
Between ninety and one hundred
survivors have been landed at Dover
and two hundred and fifty landed in
France.
The explosion occurred at 300

NEWSPAPER MEN NOT EXEMPT
British Government Refuses to Ek-

London, March 24.-The war office
has refused to exempt from army ser
vice great many newspaper men who
have been designated by the News
paper Proprietors' Association of Lon
don as essential to the work of pub
fishing the local papers.
Art editors, photographers and dark
room operators are not considered as
editorial staff employees by the war
office and it refused to exempt them
from military service. The same rul-
ing was applied to all society editors,
fiction editors, sporting editors and
headline writer's. Sub-editors (copy
readers) were for some unexplained
reason considered more essential to
the papers than any of the other mem
bers of the staffs.
The general principle to be fol-
lowed" the war office ruled, ''is that
the men to be exempted are serving
some vital purpose during a time of
war"
Many Of the leading London papers
were careful to publish a notice read
ing much like this: 1T should be
that the editor of the Lon
