ROUT OF THE ITALIANS

While the Berlin report to the effect
that l8O, 900 men and 1900 guns have been
captured on the Italian front may be ex-
aggerated at the same time the Importance
OF TINS victory must not be overlooked. It
means that the morale of the Italian armv

necessary to protect this front. This ad-
oltlonai burden will fall heavily on these
countries as reports indicate too plainly that
tney nave their hands full in maintaining
the offensive now under way in Flanders.
Inc announcement that the rout of the
Italians was due to lack of ammunition
means that increased burdens will be laid on
America, and that our already overtaxed
shipping will be called upon to TRANSPORT
tnese munitions to Italy. Add to this SUD-
plying OF Italy with coal the outlook for an
effective spring drive is not promising. The
prospects Tor an early ending of the war
are pretty well disposed of and Americans
may as We'll prepare for additional sacrifices
me TACT alone that Germany has been in a

tion and that any belief that We entertain

ROAD BUILDING HAMPERED

Hon. Duncan Buie, head of the high
ways department of the state, announces
that the recent ruling by the government
prohibiting the use of open cars for hauling
road material will necessitate the discontin-
uance of road construction. The order is in
line with the view expressed by the Presi-
dent that all work except that absolutely
necessary and urgent should be laid aside
until after the presest crisis.
Another thing to be considered in road
building is the nigh price of material and
the scarcity of labor. But the most import
ant objection to undertaking large contracts
at this time is the fact that bonds can hard
~ be fioated under present conditions, the
Liberty Bonds having drawn most of the
capital available for such investment. These
matters bear materially on the good road
meeting scheduled for hext week.

SWEDISH DIPLOMAT
 DENIES AN INTRIGUE
Sent No German Messages From Argentine in COde-Washing- ton Believes Argentine Will Break With Germany

Ish minister to Argentina, Baron Lewen, today denied that dispatches in cipher had been sent to Berlin by the German charge through the Swedish legation at BuenOs Aires. He declared:
 Il have not sent nor caused to be sent by the legation under my charge any telegram from the German lega- tion. The news is a great and dis agreeable surprise"
 Washington, Sept. 9.-The exposure of German duplicity in Argentina is already having the effect primarily desired of it. South American diplo- mats here today began to open their eyes. While it cannot be predicted that relations between Germany and Argentina will be broken off, it is as- serted with defniteness that Luxburg the offending German, will have to leave Buenos Aires in quick time.
 His allusion to the Argentine min ister of foreign affairs as an lass" is regarded as a deadly insult. It will probably have a more far-reaching effect on the relations of the two countries than will the German ac- tions with regard to Argentine ships
 It has, first of all, created the at mosphere of suspicion between the two countries which the United States State Department believes is the healthy condition for all concerned except Germany. It has put the lat est promises of Germany with regard to immunity for Argentine ships in the light in which the United States regards it-as the same sort of snare and delusion as was the Sussex pledge to the United States.

FATAL R0ITS BREAK
 OUT IN THREE STATES
Draft Resister and Wife Killed at Hawkinsville, Ga.-Three Citizens Aiding Officers h. jured in Fighting.

Hawkinsville, Ga, Sept. 9.-Mrs. Thomas Simon and her husband were killed here in a fight with citizens lasting during the most of last night and which started as result of trou- ble over Simon being certified for draft in the national army. A posse tonight was searching for Nose Simon, brother of the dead man. The victims represented themselves as Syrians.
 Three citizens aiding the officers were injured. Allen Dortch fell wounded in lung; M. L. Dembry was shot in an ear, and John Hill, plant er, received a bullet wound in an arm.
 Thomas Simon maintained he was alien enemy and had a brother in the Turkish army, when he claimed ex- emption from draft. This could not be established to the satisfaction of the exemption board and he was cer- .tifed.
 Last night Simon met member of the exemption board in a drug store and it is stated struck him and ran to the store operated by him and his brother. Persons who saw them en- ter the store stated today that they and Mrs. Thomas immediately armed themselves with pistols and rifles.
 Some time afterwards officers went to the store to arrest Thomas Simon for the alleged assault. They were greeted with a fusillade of bullets but returned the fire and Mrs. Thomas fell dead Every cartridge in the pistol found by her right hand had been discharged.
 After this first brush the men in the store barricaded themselves in a vault and it is stated fired at any one showing themselves. Several vehicles were struck.
 At 4 o'clock this morning the off cers and citizens closed in on the store and the two men attempted to escape by rear door, firing as they went. Thomas Simon was killed but Nose got away.

German Chancellor So Informs Reichstag COmmittee-Reich- stag Committee Will Hold Meeting Today.

 The main committee, said Dr. Mich aelis in the interview, had "tried to make final arrangements regarding peace conditions and the question of Alsace-Loraine, but no decision has yet been taken. The question, how ever, was eagerly discussed and Ger many will soon be able to publish her peace terms"
 The committee of seven members of the Reichstag and seven members of the Bundersrath appointed to draw up an answer to Pope Benedict's peace note, will meet on Monday afternoon, and the reply will probably be drafted then, says Berlin dispatch today.

REVENUE BILL AS ARGU-
 MENT FOR WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE

Washington, Sept. 10.-Suffrage revenue bill, under which thousands of working women will pay increased income taxes, as one more argument for speedy adoption of the suffrage amendment. Under the new revenue bill nearly $4,O00,OOO will be con- tributed by wage-earning women of the country" said Mrs. Carrie Chap man Catt, president of the National American Woman Suffrage Associa- tion today. Unless these women live in the western states, where women vote, they are unrepresented in the national law-making body. Yet, if their salary is over $1,000 per year, part of their actual living is taken by an act of that body
 Nearly half the stockholders of the Pennsylvania Railroad, for ex- ample, are women. These women will pay the taxes willingly, because it is the law and this is war emergency. But in spite of this they cannot choose their representatives in Congress, as can the male stockholders of the same corporation.
 We protest not at women's taxa tion for war revenue, but for with holding from them any voice in the government they support. The pas sage of the federal suffrage amend ment is the immediate, just, and in- evita6le sequel to the war revenue bill"

NEW MANAGERS ARE :.
 MAKING RECORDS
(By H. c. Hamilton, United Press
 Staff Correspondent

New York, Sept 10.-A new crop of managers is striking hard at the records of the old school in baseball. Youngsters in experience, they are wrecking the order of things by grasp | ing the game in their hands and threatening to run it right into a per sonally conducted worlds series be- fore many more moons.
 Lee Fohl and Jack Barry. two American Leaguers, are babies as leaders of baseball clubs, yet this year they have slammed things around in such an exciting fashion that it has taken an awful lot of effort to con- vince them that they haven't the right to run away with a pennant. In fact, Barry has proven so obstinate along these lines that he hasn't yet been convinced and has chance to win his argument. Barry's case is hardly as remarkable as Fohls, for Barry has always been considered one of the games smartest players, and has had experience under the games most astute and studious managers.
 Fohl was just sort of helper for Joe Birmingham while Joe was having his ups and downs in Cleveland. When he took hold of the Indians, it was generally believed his position was only temporary and that sooner or later he would surrender his place to some one better known as an expon- ent of winning baseball. Lut Lee fooled the gang. He- trotted right
