Washington, Oct. 15.-Official Wash
ington was keenly interested in re-
ports from London and elsewhere that
German troops recently were paraded
before Emperor William of Germany
without their rifles, presumably
through fear that violence might be
attempted against the kaiser. Nothing
official was known regarding the Incl
dent, however, nor the report that Ger
man soldiers on the eastern front

Petrograd.-The German forces
which landed on Oesel island. in the
Gulf of Riga, under cover Of ninety
war vessels, had occupied up to 10
o'clock Saturday morning the whole
northern and eastern part Of the
island were within twelve versts
of Arensberg, on the southern
shore, according to an announce
ment made by the general staff.
The Russians still occupy Serel Point
and the Svorb peninsula on the south
western coast.
With the armies in Flanders halted
by rains which have made the battle
front a sea of mud, interest centers
on Russia. The Germans have taken
and Russians expect an immediate
move on Petrograd.
Nothing has been announced to
show that the enemy has attempted
to attack the mainland of western
Esthonia, nor has there been any in
dication that the Russian front in this
region has been moved.
The French repelled several at
tempted raids by the Crown Princes
troops around Verdun.
The morale of the German troops on
the Flanders front is being shattered
rapidly by the constant assaults of
Gen. Haig, who clings to all gains
made.
The Slav war office has announced
that the weakening of the Kronstadt
garrison has menaced Petrograd, and
plea has been sent out for all Rus
SLAMS to forget their political diff
culties and unite to meet the expected
drive.

London. Oct. 13.-Heavy rains in
Flanders halted the British army in its
new drive through the German lines
after gain of 500 yards had been
made. War office dispatches say that
the advance was general all along the
six-mile front and that Haig's repeated
blows have shattered the morale of
the German soldiers. Considerable ar
tillery activity still prevails between
the French and Germans along
the Chemin- danes, in Champagne.
and on the Ypres sector. Likewise the
big guns are doing the principal work
along the Austro-Italian front. Along
the Pskoff road the Russians again
have been forced to give ground to the
enemy under heavy artillery fire. Fur

During the discussion on publicity Senator Ives asked MT. Clark if he would assume responsibility for the newspaper articles. Clark replied tha he would gladly do so if Mir Ives would do the same for the items appearing in Dunbar's Weekly. Ives lvehemently refused to stipulate. In the inspection yesterday a bal lot appeared marked straight social list and for Campbell. MT. Clark claimed the ballot. MT. Struckmeyer objected and said that MT. Clark was hot consistent in his argument in comparison with former contenr tions Clark replied that the reason for his change in attitude was due to the ruling of the court on straight prohibition ballots marked for Hunt being counted The ballot was not counted.
 At the opening of court yesterday morning Senator Ives intimated that the republicans were adopting dila- tory tactics and suggested night ses- sions and longer hours. This, despite the fact that the poll books, tally sheets and other election papers have not yet been inspected from three counties, some having arrived only the day before yesterday. MT. Clark promptly agreed to keep any hours that the court might name. MT. Clark asked Senator Ives if he were intimating that counsel for Governor Campbell were endeavor- ing to delay the count.

COURT RESERVES RULINGS ON
 BALLOTS

Pittiless publicity was on trial in Judge Stanfords court in Phoenix this week. The court announced that on account of the publication of his rulings on certain ballots in the Phoe nix daily papers, and the resultant discussion, that he would reserve his rulings until the end of the con- test instead of making them on the completion of each precinct, which, has. with a few exceptions, been the course pursued heretofore.
 The rulings reserved to date are on ballots marked straight demo- cratic at the head of the ticket and also after each candidate on the democratic ticket with the exception of MT. Hunt, and those ballots where the voter marked a cross in the square at the end of the blank line underneath Hunts name.
 Notes were made on the inspec- tion of over 5000 ballots in prepar- ing for trial but as 2,500 of these were distinctive marks, there will probably not be over two thousand rulings held up.

COUNTY SALARY LAW
 IS UNcoNSTITUTIoN

PHOENIX, Feb. 3.-ArizoEa's coun ty salary law, which divides the coun- ties into fourteen classes and puts one county in each class, was de- clared unconstitutional by the SUI preme court in a decision handed down this afternoon in the case of Frank l.. Hunt vs. Mohave county. Hunt was county assessor and brought suit to collect his salary un- der the laws of 1901. The court holds the 1912 enactment of the leg islature invalid on the ground that it was special and local legislation. County officers who are not satis-

said Senator Ives.
 To which Mr. Clark replied: We first learned of 'dilatory' through the action of the secretary of state in issuing Governor Campbell his certificate, and I am sure you will pardon us if you think we are fol lowing his example.
 Seven precincts were counted on Thursday. Upper Lowell, Naco, Pool and Servsos are incomplete, a total of sixteen ballots being re- served for ruling. Bisbee Precinct No. 1 was completed except for reserved ballots amounting to six (. Curtis gave gain of two for MT. Hunt, and Pearce gain of one.
 There are two hundred and eighty four exhibits in the case to date.

TOWNSHIP sQUATTER ADMITS
 HE PLAYED LEONE HEAD"

c. T. Reddington, Ajo attorney, who "squatted' on the townsite of Clark ston, Jan. 27, and had dreams of un- told wealth, left Tucson for his home this week, sadder but wiser man. Reddington found the claims he lai1 to the four sites in the mining city were no good, so he took the midnight train back home, where he says he'll apologize to the rightful owner flor a bone-headed trick"
 Reddington based his right to jump the land upon which scores of dwellings, occupied by employees of the New Cornelia Copper company and others interested in the big cop per camp, on information he had re- ceived that Sam. Clark, original en- tryman and founder of Clarkston, had been refused his naturalization papers. It was when Reddington found this was not the case that he threw up the sponge" admitted what he termed a "bone-headed" trick, and hurried to square things with Clark
 Must Be U. S. Citizen
 The laws of the United States provid ed that holders of mining claims or any other rights by filing must be citizens of the United States. Red dington found that on Dec. 15, 1894, Clark had filed his original papers in Houghton, Mich, and on Sept. 27, 1916, he filed an application for his final papers in Tucson. Judge Will liam H. Sawtelle, of the federal court dismissed the case on the invalidity of the papers.

Again Reddington came back to Tucson and this was when his dream of gold turned to chagrin. He found that Judge John H.

MERGER PLANS
ARE OUTLINED
Joseph Berberich Sees Sep.
aration of Civic and Com
mercial Activities.

An open invitation was extended
last night to every business and pro-
fessional man interested in the de-
velopment OF Washington TO attend
a meeting TO discuss ways and means
for consolidating the three trade
bodies Of Washington at the New
Ebbitt on Tuesday. June L, at $50
p. m.
The change in plans was made 20
relieve the meeting of any suspicion
Of partisanship. Originally sched-
uled for the Chamber of Commerce,
the meeting was changed at the
eleventh hour in order that critics OF
the plan could not urge that the spon-
taneous movement for a merger was
fostered by any one organization.
This will be the first step in an
attempt to crystalline and organize
the sentiment for consolidation that
exists in the city. The meeting will
form the nucleus of a temporary or
ganization made up Of citizens who,
without regard to their present affili-
atoms, believe that the general inter
ests Of the city will be best served
by consolidation OF all general COM
munity activities into one strong CEN
trail body.
The meetinng is being called by a
group of men who are members of
both the Board of Trade and the
Chamber of Commerce. Some are
also members Of the Retail Merchants
Association.
The purpose Of the committee as
outlined in the statement to be made
10 the meeting, and to be read by
Joseph Berberich, is as follows:

trust company in Washington has
agred to keep open until 9 O'Clock
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings to offer every opportunity
to government employees, and others
who work during the regular banr-
ing hours TO subscribe to the bonds.
This action was taken at a meet
ing of the District of Columbia
Bankers Association yesterday after
noon, in the office of Comptroller OF
the Currency Jonn Skelton williams
following an address by the Comp
troller in which he urged the banks
to put forth every effort in the few
remaining days before the subscrip-
tions close The Comptroller said the
banks should not only do everything
IN their power to interest the people
Of Washington, but that the banks
themselves should subscribe gener-
ously TO the bonds for their own ac-
counts.
In addition to agreeing to keep their
institutions open until o'clock next
week, the banks also voted to launch
a strong advertising campaign in the
newspapers beginning Monday ana
continuing until the subscriptions
