Page Says Women Come Into Camp and Eat Scraps
 Soldiers Leave
By HUGH w. RoRERTs


 Washington, June 4.-(Special.)-A vivid paragraph in letter written Sen ator Underwood by Weldon D. Page, Company A, Thirtieth infantry, stationed at Eagle Pass, seems to take the romance out of the fast developing war situation on the Mexican border
 ''The people are actually starving, and water for bathing and drinking is scarce is the burthen of this Alabamian's com munica ton.
 He writes: "The so-called bandits are led by Carranza officers. Others are desperate from starvation. Women and children come to our camp and eat scraps soldiers leave. Thousands are actually starving. God have mercy on them these innocent who are suffering.
 "The United States should step in quickly put down Carranza establish a stable government and feed the starving. We are up against the real thing. I have just returned to camp from guard ing a ford near Douglas ranch on the Rio Grande. We have 1200 men and op- posite us are 4000 Carranza soldiers. Each side is watching the others every movement.
 We sleep with the red ants, with our shoes and clothes on. Water for drinking and bathing Is scarce"

TARIFF WILL NOT BE
 ISSUE IN CAMPAIGN
tContinued from Page one,

indorsing the tariff and issuing a chal- lenge to combat with that bill as one of the prime issues We have & tariff bill on which we can afford to stand. For the country is prosperous And again, irrespective of the position of capital and big business there is lit. tie doubt but that the masses of Ameri : can people are opposed to the idea of protection.
 AS matter of fact, the democrats did indorse the Underwood tariff bill. in words; and MT. Bryan did say in his speech before the St. Louis conyen- ton that it was the best tariff bill prepared in 50 years. But it is to be inferred from the platform that the democrats have taken position where- by they agree to make such changes and such concessions as may be deemed expedient. And formally, they declared for 'nonpartisan' tariff commission which is republican principle in- volved in republican declafation." WILL BE QUIESCENT Senator Underwood was reminded that some months ago he not only stated his opposition but added that he would vigorously oppose its passage, and made a speech against it. He remembered.
 sBut he smilingly explained that since the party had spoken, he would with draw his active opposition, and indi- cated very plainly that his attitude
 would be essentially quiescent. At the same time he did not withhold the ex- pression of his opinion that the tariff commission plan would signally fail of Its purpose.
 In the present, the abnormal condi- tions in Europe and America, he cited as reason why in his opinion a tariff commission could not adjust trade diff ferences, or reach fair means be- tween the extensive and the small man. ufacturer And he ventured the asser-
 tion that abnormal conditions in both
 countries would continue to exist many
 years following the consummation ol
 peace treaties.

reaching and deserving charities in our city, and it would be a calamity to al low this work to lag on account of in adequate support.
 The Red Mountain sanitorum has all ready accomplished great and lasting benefit to hundreds of poor people Who have been restored to health and many L. ught low tc live in order tp prevent a relapse of the dread disease. The associa- ton is in urgent need of funds to pay current expenses, and unless this help is given at once, the activities of the sev- eral departments must be greatly cur tailed or perhaps entirley abandoned. Since the monthly appropriation made by the city commission has been cut off, the finances have reached a low ebb and the situation is now acute. There are a few eIthusa stic men and women interested in this great cause, who feel that the citizenship of the imperial county of Jeff fcrson needs to be awakened to a full realization of the importance and value of this anti-tuberculoss movement and cooperate and assist in material way, the very efficient secretry, Dr. George Eaves who is devoting all of his time and energy to the work.
 Not only must the sanitorium on Red mountain be maintained, for incipient cases, but if sufficient funds are avail able, the accommodations there should bc increa sed, so that a larger number of patients can secure the benefits of the open air treatment. There is all ways a large waiting list clamoring for admission. There is always a pressing reed for q county hospital for advanced cases. This institution could be estab- lshed under recent act of the legislature by the board of revenue and maintained as a county institution. I regard the free tuberculosis dispensary, the open air school, for tuberculous suspects among the children recently established at Green Springs, together with the wis iting nurse as most important and es- sential adjuncts in the crusade against the white plague" We need more vis- ting nurses so that larger territory may be covered than is now possible with the present resources If possible. every case of tuberculosis in the county should be definitely located and visited at the home by a competent nurse, who will, if necessary, give full instruction to the patient and family. By this kind of systematic work conducted along modern lines, the time would not be far distant when tuberculosis would no longer be a menace to our people, but would be, to a large extent, prevented and controlled.

 Commentators in the morning papers freely admit that the Germans scored success but point out that this sue cess cost more than it was worth, the enemy's losses being placed at from 40 to 50 per cent of the effectives en- gagged.

Town Across the Galician
 Border Is Captured
GERMANS COMING UP
Neither Side Appears to Have Won Material Advantage - Important Gains Made by Germans Around
 Verdun---Thiaumont Work Is Taken-Success for Turks

The Russian offensive is still fin full swing in Bukowina where the advance of General BrussiIOff's forces are ap- parently being little impeded by the Austrians. The town of xuty, across the Galicinn border at the fOct of the Carpathians. has been occupied and virtually all the important towns in the crownland now are in Russian pos- session.
 To the north, German troops in in creasing numbers are reported to be coming to the aid of the Austrians and the Russians are being forced to fight : to hold the ground they have already won. Heavy fighting is in progress all along the line from Northern Galicia well to the northwest of Lutsk, but neither side is claiming material progress. The German army headquarters statement asserts that some ground has been gained by Gen. Won Linsengens forces but t Petrograd does not admit that perma- nent advantage has been won by the Austro- German armies at any point.
 GAIN FOR GERMANS
 Definite and important gains have been scored by the Germans on the western front at Verdun. Capturing the Thiau- mont fortified position north of the city, they pushed on and captured a part of the village of Fleury little more than three miles from Verdun, but were soon elected from the village by a counter attack, according to the Paris official statement The French war office makes the further claim that much of the ground taken by the Germans was re- captured in subsequent counter attacks by the French, but admits that the crown prince's forces are-still in posses sion of the Thiamont works.
 The Italians have made further ad- vances in the Trentino, pushing forward in the Pasubio sector, while elsewhere they have withstood successful attacks by the Austrans.
 Constantinople reports an important success in Turkish Armenia where the Russians were driven from positions more than a mile in width on mountain ridge north of the Chorokh river. On the Persian frontier of Mesopota mia the Rus sians were cleared from Paitak pass and pursued by the Turks some 10 miles to the eastward. Petrograd claims a Turk ish repulse in the Trebizond sector. \ AMERICAN AVIATOR KILLED
