President Wants Free Hand,

Washington, July 25:-President
Wilson has asked Congress to elimi-
nate from the food control bill Sen
ate amendment creating joint COM
mittee of Senators and Representa-
tives to confer and advise with ex-
ecutive officials on war expenditures.
In a letter to Chairman Lever. of
the House agricultural committee,
the President pointed in frank terms
that such committee would be like
" to constantly harass oseindirect.
ly responsible for the conduct OF the
war. Retention of the section,h he no.
tilted Congress, he would be compell-
ed to interpret as signifying "a lack
of confidence in myself"
Mr. Lever and other House leaders
are understood to be ready to make
a determined fight against the provi-
sion, which was voted into the bill
near the close of the long Senate de-
bate. House leaders also are plan
ming to oppose the Senate's provision
for a food control board of three
members instead of one administra-
tor and there were many indications
that in this likewise they would have
the Presidents unqualified backing.

Tillman to Remain in Washington.

Washington, July Ex-senator
Tillman had made plans to 60 to his
home at Trenton for a short stay af-
ter the passage of the food control
bill by the Senate. but today reconsi-
dered, because he thought it best to
stay here until final action on the
measure by both houses of Congress.
Senator TiIlman is actuated espe-
cially by his desire to protect the
S1O,OOO,000 nitrate amendment,
which he induced the Senate to adopt
Saturday in the same language in
which it had been passed as sepa-
rate resolution when originally intro
duced Ex-senator E D Smith.
Senator Smith is one of the con-
ferees, but if the House should re-
fuse to accept the nitrate amendment
it will be thrown back into the full
Senate and a big fight may result.
in which every vote will be needed,
and advance effort will count.

Awful Accident at Florence.

Misses Rita and Jessie Haynes
worth of Sumter, who were visiting
relatives at Florence, were drowned
in Muldrow's millpond about II a. m.
yesterday. With Miss Evelyn Barnes
and MIR Matt McCown, they had gone
to spend the day with Mr. Morton
McCown,a cousin. The young ladies
went to bathe in the millrace, which
shelves suddenly. Messrs Muldrow
and McCown were sitting on the op-
posite bank and as soon as they saw
the bathers' peril Mr. McCown went
to their rescue, Mr. Muldrow having
thrown him a fishing cane, with
which he saved Miss Barnes. He
then attempted to rescue the Misses
Haynesworth, but they sank before
he could reach them. Both bodies
were recovered.
The Misses Haynesworth were
very young, Miss Rita being Is and
Miss Jessie 13 years Of age. They
were exceedingly popular. and their
sad fate is universally deplored.
The funeral was held at Sumter
today.

NATIONAL GUARD
NOW MODELLING.
GOVERNMENT RUSHING CLOTHING
AND EQUIPMENT TO GET MEN
TO TRAINING CAMPS.

Mobilization of the National Guarc
for war service has begun. While nc
orders for embarkation of State
troopsfor France will be given till af'
ter August 5, when the entire force
will be formally drafted in the Uni
ted States army, there are indica'
tions that some divisions will be re-
garded as ready to board transports
soon after that date.
The first clause of President VIII
sons proclamation providing for the
liberalization of the National Guarc
for the war became effective last
week. Under it, all guard units from
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West
Virginia. Michigan. Wisconsin, Min
nesota, Iowa, North and South Da'
kota and Nebraska, went on the
Federal payroll from that date.
Actual concentration Of troops in
their home armories or State camps
has begun. Approximately one
half of the total strength of the
National Guard, or more than 1885,
600 men, is included in the force
assembling.
The first steps in their prepara'
ton has been to send - the armorles
additional clothing for their trip to
the divisional training camps. Full
campaign equipment will be issued
at the big camps, reducing the
amount of materials to be transport
ed with the troops. Supplies fol
the divisions are being concentrated
in the depots established In the
South to feed the guard units.
Rapid progress is being made in
relieving guard regiments which
have been in the federal service
since the declaration of war guard
inc property. This work will be
taken over largely by civilian watch
men, and many States already have
built up the guarding machinery
Department commanders have beer
authorized to abandon the guarding

as they deem necessary for protec-
tion of certain big munition works
and other property. vital to the
conduct of the war.
The next step in the general mob
ilization will be the ordering of dil
visions to the camp sites already Sc
lected for them. A full supply of
tentage is available, department. re.
ports show, and the divisions will en-,
train as rapidly as the commanders
of the departments from which they
come and of those in which their
camps are located agree as to dates.
The most serious shortage of war
equipment for the guard is in1he.
artillery. For training purposes,
the big gun regiments undoubtedly
will continue to use their present
equipment, supplemented by such
additional ordnance as the regular
service can spare. 1t is regarded as
practically certain, however, that if
the guard divisions are sent to
France at an early date, they will
be equipped with French artillery
ON their arrival there. Presumably
their first war work will be with
the famous French "75's."
Departure of the guardsmen for
France, it is indicated, will be gov
erned entirely by the shipping prob
lem. War Department officials re-
gard many divisions of the State
troops as virtually ready for the in
tensive training behind the fighting
line in France. There is no reason
why some elements could not 60
forward at once, except lack OF
transportation and the submarine
menace.

ANOTHER GERMAN
SCHEME NIPPED.
QUANTITY OF SEDITIOUS LITERA-
TURE SEIZED AND CONDEMN
ED BY BRITISH OFFICIALS.

London, July 25:-Tons of sedi-
tious literature, printed in many
languages and intended for circuia-
ton in neutral countries, have been
seized here and condemned by a
prize court as part of q gigantic
scheme on the part of the Germans
to spread their propaganda to the
four corners of the earth. The seiz-
ures were found in the mails of the
steamships Oranie, Rembrandt and
Goentoer. More than l,500 bags
containing thousands of pamphlets,
were removed from the vessels by
the British authorities.
Sir Frederick Smith, the Attorney
General in asking the court to con-
denim the seizures, asserted that the
scheme was on the largest possible
scale and had been carried out with
ingenuity and thoroughness. In a
neat red and yellow cover. he said,
was a pamphlet entitled The Neu-
trality of India and England" and
information available to the British
authorities showed that in virtually
