STATEWIDE LOYALTY LEAGUE WILL
 BE FORMED BY ARIZONA CITIZENS

Bisbee's start in the formation of organizations which have as their ob- ject the unification of the citizenry of the Warren district. to the end that the United States may not be hampered in the present undertaking-war-has taken firm root and a statewide organ ization along the same lines promises to be the result. This was ascertain ed yesterday afternoon when it be- came known that the local leagues and the Globe Loyalty league were work ing to that end.
 When the strike started in Bisbee the Workmen's Loyalty league, com posed of loyal American citizens who believed that Americas industrial ac- tivities should not be hampered in the slightest extent, was organized. The Citizens Protective league was resur- rected and the two organizations have been working together since that time.
 Others Follow Example
 Shortly after the formation of the Bisbee Loyalty league, Globe began similar work along similar lines. Doug las followed. Phoenix organized, Tue son organized; Jerome is about to launch the movement; there is & possi- bility of one in Ray and even Naco Las its organization.
 It is believed that all of these lea gues, working for the same end, will send delegates to some town in the state, in the very near future. and will organize a statewide organization. Its object will be all that loyalty means and will bring the various towns and cities in the state of Arizona more closely together than anything which has transpired in the states history

.SLAVS CONTINUE RETREAT BEFORE
 GERMAN FORCES
Slavs Preparing to Evacuate Stanislaus = Disaffect i O n Among Soldiers Spreads Despite Kerensky's Orders.

Notwithstanding the threat of Pre- mier Kerensky that policy of blood and iron" is to be applied without re straint against the seditious Russian troops in East Galicia, whose disaf- lection has made null almost all the brilliant gains they had achieved un- der his personal leadership early in the month, the Russians continue their retirement, virtually pell mell before the German and Austro-Hungarian ar mics. From the wooded Carpathians to the region of Tarnopol the forces of General Koeniloff almost everE where are in disorderly retreat, hardly anywhere making an attempt to hold back the on-coming enemy.
 Already the losses of the Russians in men killed, wounded or made pris- oners and in guns and stores captur- ed are extremely heavy and these un- doubtedly will become greater unless the hoped-for stiffening in the morale of the Russians is realized soon.
 Tarnopole Menaced.
 
 Stanislau. the important grain and manufacturing center, is being evacu- ated by the Russians while Podhay- tse, Halicz and other towns have been taken by the Teutons. Tarnopol is more seriously menaced than ever, if it has not already been retaken.
 The entire eastern front from the Baltic to the Black Sea is the scene of dangerous operations, with the Rus sians standing firmly in the Rumanian theatre.
 The Russians near Dvinsk and Vil- na continue to show signs of disaffec- tion. Although they had attacked and captured German positions along the Dvinsbvilna railway, the Russians could not be induced to press their ad- vantage, and retreated to their old po- sition. In the repulse near Krevo, which was re-captured, and south of Smorgon, the Germans cut entire reg iments to pieces with their galling fire of the infantry and machine guns.
 important Bases Taken.
 General Petain's forces have assum- ed the initiative along the Chemin des Danes in France, and have taken back the small advantage gained by the enemy during his weeks of tena- cious assault. The lost ground on the California and Classmates plateaus all has been recaptured and the French, in spite of vicious countertatt3cks. have even pushed their line forward at several points in the latter region.
 The artillery activity in northern Belgium, which has been in progress for some time, has reached an inten. sity never before experienced. While the British official communication as yet has only barely mentioned the fact that the big guns are hammering away, the probability is that General Haig is preparing for another of his great drives, similar to those made on Arras and Lens fronts, which worked great havoc on the Germans and gave the British forces bases of important strategic value from whence to con tinue their operations.

CANADIAN HOUSE
 VOTES DRAFT LAW
Substantial Majority Support ing Government Assures Conscription Measure of Passage by the Senate.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

OTTAWA, July 24.-The conscrip tion bill passed the house of com mons today by a majority of 54. Il now goes to the senate, where its speedy enactment into law is assured by the presence of substantial ma jority supporting the government.
 The English-speaking conservative members voted solidly for the bill and 22 of the English-speakihg liberal sup porters of Sir Wilfred Laurier broke away and voted for the government measure.
 The remainder of Sir Wilfrid's fol lowers voted with him against con scription and they were joined by five French members who were e;ecied tc support the government.
 The vote for conscription was almost entirely English and the vote against it was very largely French.
 Before the vote was taken an ap peal for the measure was made by J G. Turriff, liberal member, whose only son was killed in France. He opposed submission of conscription tc the people by either refendum or gen eral election because it would be de feated by the votes of slackers who ha dfailed to respond to the call fol volunteers.
 Solicitor-General Meighan said that if Canada did, not continue to support with recruits the men sent to the front it would mean betrayal and disgrace
 The senate is expected to pass the conscription measure within 10 days Dissolution of parliament is looked fol and a general election in September with cOnscription as the issue.

PRESIDENTS ACT
 IS SURPRISE TO
 RIVAL OFFICIALS
Edward N. Hurley, Appointed New Chairman of Merchant Marine Board, Promises That Shipbuilding Will Be Rushed.
CBy Review Leased wire.1


 WASHINGTON, July 24.-President Wilson brought the shipping board row to an abrupt termination today by eliminating the two principals William Denman, chairman of the board and Major-General Geo. w Goethals, manager of the boards emer. eency fleet corporation, in charge oi construction.
 The resignation of General Goethals, rendered some days ago, was accepted and MT. Denman was asked by the president to follow suit, that the gov ernment's building program might go forward without embarrassment
 Edward N. Hurley of Chicago, for commission was named by the presi- dent to succeed Mir Denman to be come chairman of the board and Bain- bridge Colby, of New York was ap- pointed successor to Captain John E. White of Kansas City. another board member, whose resignation 10 the pres ident a month ago, also was accepted. Rear-Admiral L. T. Capps, constructor of the navy, will succeed General Goe- thals, as manager of the fleet corpora ton taking immediate charge.
 Denman Satisfied.
 Nominations of MT. Hurley and MT. Colby went to the senate this after noon and were referred to the com merce committee. Their prompt con firmation was predicted by both demo- cratic and republican leaders.
 MT. Denman sent his resignation to the white house immediately after re. ceipt of the presidents letter request ing it. The presidents action mani festly took him by surprise, but his only comment was this:
 Tt was the best way to settle the whole thing. I want to help the pres ident in every way possible and never have questioned the wisdom of his de- cisiOn.-
 It was reported tonight that Theo- dore Brent, vice-chairman of the board, who has been a strong support CT of MT. Denman's position. had of fered to quit the board if the president thought it best, but at the white house it was said no communication had been received from him. John A. Don aid and R. B. Stevens. the other board members who have lined up with General Goethals, said they had no in- tention of resigning
 Wilson's Move Is Surprise.
 The presidents method of ending the controversy came as a great sur prise to most officials, who had be- lieved he would make a final effort to compose the situation by dividing def initely between the shipping board and the manager of its corporation the powers conferred on these executives by congress

REVENUE MEASURES MUST
 NOW BE REVISED
New Estimates Called for Would Raise Total Ex- penses for First Year of War Above Fourteen Bil- lions.
(By Review Leased wire.)

WASHINGTON. July "A. - Plans worked out in congress for raising war revenue were overturned today by an- nouncement of forthcoming additional estimates for war expenditures aggre- gating more than $5,00O. 100000. prin- cipally in anticipation Of assembling , a second army of 500.000 men under the selective draft.
 Secretary McAdoo, at a special meeting of the senate finance commit tee, revealed that the war department alone is preparing estimates to cover additional expenditures of nearly-S5 0OO, 100000 and asked the committee to hold up the s1,67O 100000 war tax bill until the detailed estimates of all departments are submitted. The com mittee agreed to the request and pig eon-holed a report on the measure, which it had planned to submit dur ing the day.
 Tax Levy to Be Raised
 The new estimates. including s500.- OO0, ,OOO' additional for the shipping board and S100, 100000 for the navy department. are to be submitted to the committee late this week. Then there will begin another revision of the war revenue measure, probably resulting in an increase of the bills gross tax levy from $350.000,0OO to s1.500.000.- 900. Further credits may also be auth orized in the form of bonds or indeDr- edness certificates.
 Besides the additional sums needed for the American war program, Secre- tary McAdoo told the senate commit tee that the s3,OO0, 100000 authorized for loan to the allies probably will last only until October and that s2.O00.OOO for their further assistance will be needed. Provision for this. however. is not planned in connection with the present revenue legislation. It prob ably will be considered at the next session.
 The secretary made no reeommenda- tion as to what part of the total should be raised by taxes and what part by bond issues or other credits. It was reported, however. that the treasury department would favor raising ST. 900 100000 more than had been plan ned in taxes. making the tax bill total $2,670, 100000.
 New Estimates Asked
 As to the tax sources to be tapped to meet the new estimates. the first disposition of the committee was to turn to new taxes on war excess profits and incomes. A meeting will be held immediately after the new estimates are submitted.
 A resolution was adopted today calling for submission of new estimates by all departments. so that the whole war expenditure program might be called in connection with the impend- ing war tax legislation.
 The so-called S5.000. 100000 war army increases. the secretary said. are largely to provide for the second draft army of 5O0.000 to be called while the first 5O0.0O0 are under training. The S5,0000 100000 would provide for expen- ditures until July l, 1918.
 During today's debate on the rivers and harbors bill, Senator Shoot pre- sented statistics to show the appro- priations of the war session already aggregate S9.226. 100000 so that the new estimates would raise the total for the first year of the war we'll above s14,00O.000.000.
