DELICATE ISSUE RAISED.
Question of Deporting Subjects Of
Allies Now Agitating British.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 20.-Wide difference of
opinion has arisen and the ground
prepared for a controversy among the
political leaders by the governments
decision that the subjects of it's allies
in the war residing in England shall
either enlist in the British army or be
deported
Particular objection to the decision
has been engendered in so far as 1t
may affect Russian subjects here, who
may be political refugees large ele
ment of the more liberal thinkers in
public life priding themselves in the
traditional asylum offered by England
in this respect. Herbert Samuel, secre-
tary of the home Office. stated in the
house of commons that the plan to de-
port those failing to enlist would not
be enforced in the case of Russian sub
jects. If a tribunal decided that they
are political refugees.
The suggestion has been made that
instead of sending back to their own
Russia for reasons known to every
body. though they are not exactly
political refugees, they should be sent
to America or deported to some other
neutral country of their choice.
The desire to avoid offending Rus
sian susceptibilities on the subject is
general, for which reason the question
is regarded as one of unusual delicacy.
One group holds that the sending back
of Russian Jews to their own country
would crafty no important Russian
sentiment, and might effect the reverse
result.

SIXTH ESCAPE MADE
BY CONVICT STRATTON

CHICAGO. July s1.-Clyde Stratton

are at liberty today, having escaped
from the Illinois penitentiary at foliet

ceived by the Chicago detective bu-

The fact that the men were gone was
not discovered until last night, when
the guards checked up the prisoners
who have been allowed the freedom OF
the corridors in the cellhouse until 8
o'clock during the hot weather.
Stratton Is the convict who escaped
from the Leavenworth, Kan, prison by

futility of prison bars. This time he

MIDDLE OF STREAM HIGHEST.
Cbstructions Turn Parts of Current
From the Banks.

Why the middle of a stream is higher
than its margins during a flood is ex-
planned by a recent official statement of
the geological survey. 1t has been seen
that such a condition exists because
driftwood goes toward the margin of a
stream during food time and returns to
the middle when the head falls.
The statement goes on to say:
The elevation of the center of a
stream above it's margins during a flood
is generally the result of the roughness
of its bed. Boulders, sand waves and
rifles. and even sand grains, turn parts
Of the current that strike against them
outward from the banks and upward
from the bottom of the channel The
particles directly DETECTED by the OBJ
stacles may move but a short distance
in that direction, but their energy is
transmitted to other particles and by
them to still others, setting up a system
of forces that act toward the upper
middle part of the stream.

been fixed for the following, afternoon

The minutes of the trial have not yet

nor has it any more precise details
OF the accusation beyond the broad
charge that Capt. Fryatt was franc
tireur.
The admiralty representatives take
the ground that this charge is amply
sufficient to justify execution. They
declare roundly that the German court
needs neither defense nor explanation
Basis for the courts action may, how
ever, perhaps be found in the revised
prize regulations promulgated in July,
1914, whereby officers and crews of
armed merchantmen attacking or re-
sisting German warships are placed
beyond the pale of the law and are
to be regarded simply as pirates and
freebooters.

other reasons for sparing his life on
the goands of humanity, OF even ex-
