 Hid Beneath Box Only.

New York, July 10.-Alfredo Cocchi, confessed murderer of Ruth Cruger, high school student, declared in his confession to the Italian authorities that the police made only a perfume tory search of his shop where the body was found, according to cable message received today by District Attorney Swann from Joseph w.. Gregg. his representative at Bologna, Italy, where Coccbi is in custody.
 After giving details of the murder, which already have been disclosed, Cocchi is quoted as having declared that when he placed the girls body ill the excavation in the cellar. he did not cover it with earth, but with a large box.
 Afterwards the police came and went into the cellar. but did not move anything" Cocchi said, according to the message. He concluded:
 After the police left, became frightened and went to shipping of- flee to try and secure a passage to Italy. used a fictitious name"

Must Continue War.

Berne, July 10.-According to the summary of the chancellor's speech before the main committee, publish ed in the Lokale Anzeiger of Beslin, he said: I
 We must continue the war with our whole energy.
 "I do not deny that we have great difficulties to overcome, but so have cur enemies. We shall see whether their difficulties or ours are greater. I am sure we can win if we hold out.
 Nothing was further from my in- tentions thana to cling to my post, but now it is a question of protect ing the Fatherland from injury, and for this reason I consider it neces- sary to retain my post
 "I repeat that the formula of peace without annexation is unacceptable to us We cannot declare our terms of peace. We must fight and con- quer," he added.
 The chancellor made a strong at tack on Matthias Erzberger. leader of the Catholic Center, who assailed the pan-Germans in his addres before the main committee last week and advocated peace without annexations or indemnities.
 Dr. von Rcthmann-Hollweg said Herr Erzberger's attitude was un- patriotic.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1917-07-11

Erzberger, now corrects it's previous announcement regarding the clerical vote, saying the party has taken no decision.
 Tn pursuance of it's policy of ex- tending tine influence of the German press, big business interests under Krupp leadership have purchased the Radical Weser Zeitung. one of the oldest German newspapers. and wilt make it like the recently purchased Berlin Lokal Anzeiger, an out-and- pan-German and annexationfst paper. The same company is reported to Dc negotiating for the purchase of a number of other prominent Li1lVal and Radical and provincial papers.
 Doubts Chancellor to FaiL
 Theodore Wolff of the Berliner Tageblatt. doubts whether Chancellor von Bethmann-Ho Hollweg will fail as a result of the reichstag crisis. He says it would be curious. thGrxh not surprising, dispensation if chancellor should be toppled by at- tacks directed against submarine warfare and policy which forced America into the war after repeated ly risking his position by persisting in an opposite course.
 Reports on the crisis are that For eign Secretary Zimmerman retires with Admiral von Capelle, who auc- ceeded Admiral von Tirpitz as head of the ministry of marine. and that Dr. von Vethman-Hollweg and. Lieu- tenant General von Stein, Prussian minister of war and state. opposed vigorously the idea of peace without annexation, and that General von Stein read a letter from Field Mar shal von Hindenburg to bolster up the submarine policy.
 Oppose U.BOat Warfare.
 The majority in the reichstag has been practically formed on the basis of those demands which 1t was thought would align America and Russia for peace and powerfully in- fluence France and England. It was said the same majority has been se- cured for a demand for the institu- tion of parliamentary ministry with Dr. Gustave Stressemann, Na- tionalist, and Philip Schedimann. as candidate for portfolio.
 Army comment by Count Ernest won Reventlow, naval expert of the Tageszeitung, on the attacks of Matthias Erzberger on Pan-American- ism and the German admiralty. throws some light upon the nature of Herr Erzberger's references to the submarine campaign which the cen sorship attempted to keep out of the papers. Count von Reventlow de- clared Herr Erzberger and his sup porters in the Catholic center party of the reichstag were aiming to de- stroy with the submarine war also the nations confidence in victory and the prospect of German peace.

Expect Political Crisis.

Copenhagen, July 10.-Although it is difficult to gain clear impression of the political crisis in Germany from conflicting accounts in German papers and dispatches sent abroad, reichstag leaders were expected to be sitting this afternoon or evening in council upon a declaration of policy. This, according to some, would decide the fate of Chancellor von Bethmann- Hollweg and the present governmental system, while others declare it would end the whole crisis. The party lead CTS were concerned chiefly with the question of the chancellor's position. Those for or against new blood in the ministry and change in the political system and questions of submarine policy and peace conditions were given only secondary consideration. Should the party leaders in conference, wherein only Radical, Socialists and Conservatives were not represented, reach an agreement, the decision will be presented. according to the Vossi- che Zietung, in the form of leaving the chancellor the alternative of ac- cepting them or facing rebellion in the reichstag, which will vote to ad- journ if it finds cooperation with the chancellor impossible.
 Radical Party Wavering.
 The Radical party, according to the Vossiche Zeitung, is wavering on the question of forcing a change, fearing that Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg' suc- cessor, if one were chosen. might be worse than the present chancellor. The Hamburg Fremdenblatt. which yesterday said that the entire cleri- cal party in the reichstag. with the exception of three members. had voted to support the stand of Herr

Chang Retreating.

Oh&h6 4AVVA Cu~A6e
 Washington July 1O.-General Chang Hsun, leader of the attempt to restore the Manchu dynasty in China was reported by Minister Reinsch to- day to have withdrawn his troop into the imperial city and the temple of Heaven, the two most historic and beautiful sections of eking.
 Loyal troops of the republic sur- round the city and complete destruc- tion of the monarchial movement is considered only a matter of short time. Uninterrupted communica- tion with Tien Tsin was restored July 8.
 Chang Hsun's choice of the imper- ial city and the temple of Heaven as his place of refuge after his desper- ate project had been swamped by a wave of universal republican opposi- ton confirms the belief here that he intends to hold China's prOceless esli- fices as a pawn for his own personal safety.
 The temple of Heaven, large en- closed space dotted with blue-dOmed temples, was the scene of the old inn perial regime, while the imperial cit" is filled with irreplaceable relics of old China.
 Another dispatch to the depart ment said the republican government at Nanking had, in accordance with the constitution, announced the con- firmation of General Ferg KuO Chane as president and Yuan Chl Jul as pre- mier. ..
 According to this information. de- cision has been reached to banish the emperor, the imperial femily and the monarchist princess from Peking nn' der surveillance.
 k It is also stated that Chang Hsul in Peking, is negotiating for guaran' fees for personal safety.

Associated Press Summary

huSSld dIIllloS nave UiOh0u luC Austro-G German line in the vicinity of the Halicz-Stanislaw sectors, one of the most important on the eastern front, and the Russian advance con- tinues.
 The Austro-German forces already have withdrawn beyond the Lomnich river, about 10 miles west of Jezupol, which was occupied Sunday by the Russians under General Corniloff.
 The Russians have taken four more villages and increased their captures of prisoners more than 1000. Seven more field guns and other war ma teria. also fell into Russian hands.
 West of Stanislaw, towards Kalusz and Golina, the Russians have pene- trated the Teutonic line to a depth of nearly seven miles, and between Stanislaw and Halicz they have wid- cned their wedge.
 In their retirement, apparently made hastily from the large amount of guns and stores captured by the Russians, the Austro-Germans failed to make a stand at two rivers. the Lukovitza and the Luvka. It is prob able they may intrench on the west bank of the Lomincka. A stand west of the Lomincka, however, hardly will prevent the forced evacuation Of Halicz, the strategic key to Lemberg. as the Russians are within less than eight miles of Halicz on three sides.
 Meanwhile, the Russian artillery is hammering the enemy lines south of Brzezeny and north of the Pripet marches. Near Riga, Dvinsk and Smordon, the fighting has increased.
 On the western front, along the Chemin des Danes, the French have repulsed more attacks by troops of the German crown prince. The latest German efforts were not made in as great force as those of last week. The French also threw back strong at tack in the Champagne.
 A vigorous artillery duel is in pro- gress between the Germans and Brit ish in Flanders. The German artil- lery fire also has been intense along the front held by the Belgian armies.
 In Flanders, near the French bor- der, the British have advanced their line to Oostaaverne.

LIQUOR PROBLEM
 TAKES NEW TURN.
 STING IS REMOVED
To Aid in Bringing Early Passage Substitute Food
 Bill Is Presented.
SMIERN,11Io~<9Z

Washington, July 10.-A senate agreement to vote on President Will sons food control bill on July 21, five weeks after its submission to congress as an urgent war meaure, was followed today by the issuance from the white house of a detailed report by Herbert Hoover declaring that both the farmers and the public are threatened with serious losses unless food control authority is given quickly to the federal govern ent.
 Democratic senators secured the agreement for vote only after they had consented to strip the bill of some of it's more drastic provisions and the cotton control plan So far reaching was the revision demanded, in fact, that all-day conferences of the Democratic steering committee and the agriculture committee result ed in the presentation of a substitute for the entire measure.
 With the whole legislative situation upset in the senate, the leaders. ex- pressed doubt tonigh. whether ac- tion can be taken under any circum-
  the date set for the vote.
 The latest substitute would prohib- it manufacture of distilled liquors, without provision for government purchase of existing stocks, and would place in the presidents hands power and responsib !ity to decide whether the prohibition shall be ex- tended to beer and wine.
 Immediate Action Needed.
 Washington, July 10.-A report on the food situation prepared for Pres ident Wilson by Herbert c. Hoover, holding that both the farmers and the consuming public are suffering while food spectators make unearn- ed profits from the delay in the enact- ment of food control legislAtion, was given out tonight at the white house
 Unless strong and efficient gov@ ernment action is immediately taken, the food administrator reported, the farmers will face a slump in wheat prices and consumSrs will be caught in a situation even more serious than that which already is resulting in "ac- tual undernourishment" in the great centers.
 The spectators, it is said. are talk ing the large part of the price paid by consumers.

 No comment by the president ac- companied the re1prt, although he has more than once demonstrated his impatience over the repeated delays in congress which have kept the en- tire food control program in state of uncertainty for weeks.

 Again Attacks in Vain.

London, July 1G.-Halicz. the key to Lenlberg, the capital of Galicia. has been captured by the Russians, says a dispatch from Reuters Petrograd correspondent.
 Halicz, 63 miles southeast of Lem berg, or the Dneister river, is an inn portant railroad junction and the most important city key to the Cali elan capital. It is IS miles north of Stanislaw and about miles north of Jezupol, captured by the Russians on Sunday Halicz was the center of much heavy fighting last August and September, after the Russians had captured Bukowina and were attempt ing to reach Lemberg..
 Stanislaw was captured by the Rus sians in August, but they failed to take Halicz, after days of furious bat tling at Sarianpol and Monastercyska and forcing the Austro-Germans to Dneister. In September, Halicz was hombarded by the Russians but the at tempts to storm the town were un- successful.
 The fall of Halicz probably means that the Austro-Germans must retire from the present line along the east of Halicz through B14ezeny and zlochoss and to Brody, in order to protect Lemberg. The next line in the rear of the Zlota-Lipa is the Dnila Lipa. d :!
