INSTALL MR.. CODERIH
AS Gilbert PASTOR

The Rev Edward w. Coberth was m
stalled last evening as pastor Of Gilbert
Presbyterian Church. The charge to the
pastor was given by the Rev. J. w. Lee
D. D., of Philadelphia, and the Rev. j.
II. Crawford, Of Central Presbyterian
Church, delivered the charge TO the peo-
pie. The Rev. James NJ L. Eckard, OF
Smyrna. moderator Of the Presbytery
Of New Castle, presided.
Mr. Eckard in his address, emphasized
Christianity as the religion which re-
quired people to do things in contradis-
tinction to those religions which required
that people should think or theorize.
He spoke of the need of pastoral la
bors in the vicinity, the need of sup
porting the pastor and the breadth and
scope Of the religious field.
Mr.. Eckard cited an illustration about
which he had read of a salesman who
attended a church service, and at the
close remarked that "the preacher GER
tainly had fine lot Of goods, but he
didn't complete the SALE
The trouble with too many ministers,
Mr. Eckard said, is that they succeed
in making the goods attractive. but
don't complete the sale. They don't
bring souls TO Christ.
Dr. Lee in his sermon dwelt at some
length on the duties Of the pastor and
Dr. Crawford spoke Of the three. say
ings Of Christ in which He emphasized
the fact that the people are "the salt of
the earth" and referred to the moral
and social realization Of the people to
the work Of the pastor as a guide and
support in his work

Chicago City Hall Offices Raided
by Officers Of States Attorney

Chicago - Mayor William Hale
Thompson's office, that Of Chief Of
Police Charles e. Healey and that of
Second Deputy Funkerhouser were
entered Wednesday afternoon by four
assistants of the states attorney and
16 detectives assigned to the office Of
States Attorney Hoyne, armed with
forthwith" duces tecum subpenas di-
recting those three officials and their
assistants to turn over to the grand
jury all books, records, letters and pa
pers bearing on gambling, slot ma
chimes, Sunday closing and disorderly
houses received there since April 1915
It was an unprecedented and sensa
tional move which threw the city hall
into excitement bordering on a panic
The raid was made while the city
council was in session with the mayor
in the chair and created sensation in
the city hall.
When Mayor Thompson was advised
of the raid in the council chamber he
said: q
1T was not necessary to send all
these fellows over here; a messenger
boy could have taken over the stuff
that Hoyne wants. / do not believe
the grand jury wants it, anyway"
Others besides the mayor and chief
against whom the subpenas were di-
rected are: Charles Fitzmorris, the
mayors secretary; William Luthardt,
the chiefs secretary, and John j..
Naughton, sergeant in the office Of
the chief in charge of records.

ONLY ONE SUBMARINE OPERATED
ON U. S. COAST, SAYS ADMIRAL

Newport, r. 1.-The wholesale raid
on foreign shipping south of Nan
tucket lightship Sunday was the work
Of one submarine, according to reports
of American naval officers. RearAd-
miral Gleaves, commanding the torpe-
do boat destroyer flotilla which did
such remarkably speedy rescue work,
said that the reports Of all his officers
agreed that to the best Of their obser-
vation one raider only was concerned.
This boat presumably was the U-53,
which called at Newport Saturday af-
ternoon to mail letter to Ambassa-
dor Bernstorff and then put to sea
without taking on an ounce of sup
plies, although she had been II days
off her base, according to the state
ment of her officers.
Admiral Gleaves said he could easily
understand the positive statements Of
the captain of the Nantucket lightship
and of sailors of the torpedoed vessels

Bad Men Escape From Pen.

Salem.-James O'Brien and Frank
Smith, two of the most desperate char
acters in the oregon penitentiary, es-
capped Wednesday night. Posses
secured the surrounding country, but
obtained no trace of the fugitives. A
reward of $50 for the capture Of each
man has been offered.
Both Smith and O'Brien were serv-
ing from two to five years for bur
glary.
The escape was effected after the
men had sawed the steel padlocks on
their cells and scaled the 1S-foot wall
with rope made from their blankets.
The men had been confined in new
steel cells placed in the prison yard
especially to hold recalcitrant pris-
oners.
B. B. Smith, wall guard, slept
while the men scaled the wall within
40 feet of him, and was later summar-
lily discharged.

foreign Submarine Sighted Off
Georgia Coast; ShipOwners Worry

Savannah, Ga.-The presence of a
submarine of undetermined national
ity off Tybee Bar, off Savannah, was
reported to local custom house Off
cials and to the British consul here,
it was learned Wednesday. Officials
at both the custom house and consul
ate refused to say where their infor-
nation came from, but each empha-
sized the statement that it was ZEN
tirely unofficial" No American un-
dersea boats are believed to be in
these waters.
1t was reported in marine circles
here that the naval-yard at Charles
ton, s. c., had been advised by wire
less of the presence as early as Mon
day afternoon of a submarine off Ty-
bee bar. Custom house officials and
those of the British consulate said
their information was that submer-
sible was off the bar Wednesday. Sew
eral allied merchant ships are in port
here, and officers of several acknowl-
edged that they were SLOW in load
ing" although all declared reports OF
submarine activities would not pre-
vent their departure.

64O-Acre Bill Not Law.

The Dalles. Because Of numerous
inquiries regarding the passage of the
stockraising homestead 64O-acre bill,
Representative N. ]. Sinnott has given
out the following statement:
"Tbe statement that has been pub
lished in several small papers in this
state that the stockraising homestead
640-acre bill had been passed and be-
came a law is erroneous. The bill did
not pass. The bill went through the
house and passed to the senate, where
several amendments were attached to
it and returned to the house. The re-
turn was made on the last day Of the
session and, therefore, the house could
not have passed it If it wanted to, as
there was not enough time for consid-
Grafton. The bill will not be acted
upon until the next session Of con-
gress."
The bill provides for the taking up
of $40 acres Of stockraising land with
the sanction Of the secretary Of the
interior.

Colonel Swinton Of the British army

"tank," the adapted American tractor,
which has been used against the Ger
mans.
that more than one submersible was
concerned. The U-boat, he said, was
very fast and appeared to have been
handled very cleverly. 1t was easy,
he pointed out, for her to disappear
on one side of ship and then show
up unexpectedly at another spot.
Doubtless, he believed, she had sub
merged and reappeared often enough
to mislead any but keen professional
observer and to create the impression
that more than one sea terror was
operating.
This opinion would seem to be borne
out by the statements of many OF the
refugees that the submarine had more
business on hand than she could take
care Of at once and was obliged to re-
quest one steamer to wait the turn
while another was being put out of
commission. Lieutenant Commander
Miller, Of the destroyer Ericsson, who
witnessed the destruction of the Ste
piano, said he was positive that only
one submarine was in the vicinity at
the time.
The known list Of the victims Of the
U-boat's Sunday exploits remains at
six, Notwithstanding reports from the
Nantucket lightship that three other
ships, the identity Of which could not
be learned, were sent to the bottom.
Their also was persistent rumor,
without verification, that a British
cruiser, one Of the allied patrols sent
to the submarine zone, had been at
tackled.

AMERICA REJECTS SUGGESTIONS
OF ALLIES ON SUBMARINE WAR

Washington, D. C.-The American
memorandum on use of neutral waters
by belligerent submarines, the text of
which was made public by the state
department Wednesday, declares the
allies have failed to show why such
vessels should be denied entrance to
neutral ports and that no circum-
stances have been set forth rendering
the usual provisions of international
law inapplicable to underwater craft
The United States reserves complete
liberty of action in dealing with bel
ligerent submarines.
No specific mention Of the Deutsch-
land is made in the memorandum, al
though the allied communication is
understood to have been prompted by
the failure of the United States to
consider that vessel as having any
characteristics making her status diff
ferent from that Of the ordinary mer-
chantman.
Surprise is expressed "that there
appears to be an endeavor on the part
of the allied powers to determine the
rule of action" in respect to the use
of submarines and at the suggestion
that there is great danger in permit
ting neutral submarines to visit wa
ters that may be visited by belligerent
submarines. The government declares
that responsibility for any conflict
that may arise between belligerent
warships and neutral submarines on
account of the neglect of belligerent
SO to distinguish between these
classes Of submarines must rest en-
tirely upon the negligent powers"
The memorandum, originally sent to
France, Great Britain, Russia and Ja-
pan on August 81 in reply to their
identical memorandums of August %,
later was sent also to Italy and Portu-
gal.
While the allied communication
was published some time ago, the
American reply was not given out un-
til the recent U-boat activities seemed
to make public statement Of the gov
ernments position imperative.

German War Submarine Enters
Newport, Va, 10 Deliver Message

Newport, R. I.-Seventeen days
from Wilhelmshafen, the imperial
German submarine U-53 dropped an
chor in Newport harbor Saturday.
Almost before the officers Of the
American fleet of warships through
which the stranger had nosed her way
had recovered from their astonish-
ment, the undersea fighter had deliv-
cred message for the German am
bassador and, weighing anchor, turn
ed toward Brenton's Reef lightship
and disappeared beneath the waves
just inside the three-mile limit.
AS she came and went she flew the
black and white colors Of the German
navy, gun was mounted on the for
ward deck and another aft, while eight
torpedoes plainly were visible under
the forward deck, giving mute assur-
ance that the warship was ready for
fight at the drop of the hat.
Lieutenant Captain Hans Rose, who
hung up a new worlds record in bring
ing an armed submarine in battle ar
ray across the Atlantic, said that he
had called at Newport simply to mail
a letter to Count Won Bernstorff. He
requested neither provisions nor fuel
and would be on his way, he said, long
before the "a hours during which a
belligerent ship may remain within a
neutral harbor had expired.
The submarine was in American
waters little more than three hours,
assuming that she continued to sea
after submerging. Within that time
the German commander paid official
visits to Rear-Admiral Austin M
Knight, commandant of the second
naval district, and Rear-Admiral
Gleaves, commander of the destroyer
force of the Atlantic fleet, who was
on board the flagship, the scout cruis'
er Birmingham. Both American Off
GERS returned the brief calls promptly
