U. S. LIMITS ALCOHOL In BEER
Action Taken at Instance of Hoover
Diverts 20,500,000 Bushels of
Grain to Food Uses.

Washington, Nov. 27.-Upon the rec
Ommendation of the food administra-
ton, President Wilson has taken steps
to reduce the amount of grain used in
the brewing of beer.
Henceforth the alcoholic content will
be limited to a maximum of per cent
instead of about per cent, as at pres
ent.
The amount of grain which may be
used is about 20 per cent of the pres
ent average, meaning a net saving of
80 per cent. The same volume of beer
may be brewed.
The order will cause diversion to
food uses of approximately 20,5OO,OOO
bushels of grain now employed in
brewing.
The food administration holds that
the brewing of beer should not be
abolished, because in such an event
strong waters would be the only alco-
holic beverages available outside of
Wines. The country has a supply of
whisky, brandy and gin sufficient to
last two or three years.

First to Smoke Tobacco.

Tradition ascribes tobacco and it's
origin to many things. Some say it
was Sir Walter Raleigh who intro
duced it in the early seventeenth cen
fury, but the tiny village of Henstridge
Ash, Somersetshire, claims the distinc-
ton which cannot be disputed and one
can find many champions of that
cause in the immediate vicinity. The
entire village consists of one house,
known as the "Old Ash" or Virginia
Inn," and here, it is said, tobacco was
smoked for the first time.

U-B0AT TAKEN BY U. S.
Submarine Damaged by Depth Bomb
Dropped by Destroyer Forced to
Come to the Surface

Washington, Nov. 26.-Forty mem
bers of a German U-bOat crew were
captured, one German was drowned
and another died of wounds when
American destroyers captured a sub
marine. The Teutons raised their
hands in surrender after they had been
forced to the surface by crippled rud-
der, which had been struck by a de-
stroyer's depth bomb. While thus
showing their surrender, they treach-
erously opened the valves, causing the
vessel to sink after the American de-
stroyer had cast towline to the o.
boat.

AlRPLANES AID WAR TANKS
Ships Attack Them in Front
at Cambrai.

Paris, Nov. 27.-The use on both
sides of lOw-fying airplanes has been
q feature Of the recent fighting in the
Cambria sector. The Germans tried
to repulse the advancing tanks by
dropping bombs on them from a low
altitude, but they were not successful.
They were less Of q failure in attack
ing the British airplanes which went
darir ely into the lines fifty feet or less
from the ground through the mist
under extremely low clouds.
The Germans, who were sometimes
above the clouds, rarely broke through
They did not take the same risks as
the British and consequently accom-
plished little.
Some of the accounts Of airmen fir
ing machine guns and bombarding the
German infantry and artillery indicate
they worked in cooperation with the
tanks. While the tanks crawled slowly
on the earth the airplaneS accompany
ing them made large circles overhead
and darted back and forth from one
tank to another, raining bullets on the
rear Of positions that the tanks were
attacking directly with cannon.
One German 'spillbox" or machine
gun emplacement is said to have been
abandoned when it was bombed from
a low altitude by q British machine
which a moment later was shot down
by German guns. Both the pilot and
the gunner escaped unhurt and took
refuge in the "pillboX," which they had
captured.

MRS. De SAULLES
TELLS HER STORY
Names Actress in Defense for
Killing Spouse.
SAYS HE SPENT HER MONEY
Spectators in Courtroom Hold Breath
less as She Tells Of Neglect and
Final Words Spoken by
Her Husband.

MineOla, L. l., Nov. 27.-Mrs. Blanch
u. De Saulles' recital on the witness
stand of the last words spoken by her
husband, John L. De Saulles, before
she slew him on the night of August
3, formed one of the most tragic and
dramatic scenes ever enacted in
courtroom.
rOOmful of spectators breathleSs as
she nerved herself to speak The still
ness was broken only by a woman's
sob. The answer finally came from
bloOdless lips.
"Mr. De Saulles said to me: You
can't have him Qittle jack. You can
never have him. l saw look come
in his facet was stunned-I had a
frightful pain in my head"
She paused
II still seem to be hearing those
words"
Says He Spent Her Money.
The earlier part of Mrs. De Saulles'
testimony bore largely on the alleged
by her husband "When he found out
how much money had" she said, she
was very much disappointed and said
to me: "This is not very much"
In one instance the eyes of the wit
ness flashed fire when her counsel
asked her to tell what she knew of
her husbands association with the
duke of Manchester
ave were taking dinner one aft
ernOOn," she said "When de Saulles
received a note from the duke of
Manchester, asking him to go on
yachting trip. He went. Later l saw
him on the yacht with the duke, and
there were many people with them"
"WhO were these people? asked the
counsel. "Were they men or women"
"Girls," she replied.
(Which Wife?"
Very reluctantly she told of a trip
to London, in which, she testified, she
went to hotel to find her husband.
"Who are your" asked the clerk.
II am his wife, Mrs. De Saulles,"
she said.
(Which One?" was the query.
She told of being introduced to Jack
De Saulles, early in 1911, and of his
courtship. She became engaged to
him in August, 1911, she testified.
"My husband came home very late,
as rule" she said, "many times be-
tween three and four o'clock in the
morning. He never told me where he
had BEEN"
A copy of Town Topics detailing the
doings of the duke of Manchester was
then introduced.
"Lady Gcdiva Stunt"
The story told of how Jack De
Saulles assisted the duke in entertain
ing prominent dancers and devotees
os the night life of Broadway, also of
how one woman did the Lady Godiva
stunt by sans clothes plunge into the
ocean. On another occasion, De
Saulles showed her a card from
woman who was Well-known to the
lower world
II asked him if he knew her well,''
she said, "and he told me he did"
''Then I asked if he ever kissed her,
and he said he did. That made me
feel miserable"
"He said he could not help the kind
of life he was living, as he was not
made to settle down."
She testified she did not tell her
mother or others about the troubles of
her married life.
"When I asked my husband about
his relations with Joan Sawyer the
dancer" she said, she asked me if I
thought I was the only woman who
ever fell in love with him.

BOMB KILLS 10
At MILWAUKEE,
Nine Officers and Woman Killed
in Police Station.
SIX SUSPECTS ARE ARRESTED
Criminals Responsible for Deaths Be-
IleVed to Be Members of Band OF
italian Anarchists With
Iconociastic Ideas.

Milwaukee, Nov. 26.-That the bomb
which killed ten persons, injured two
and wrecked the central police station
here Saturday night may have been
manufactured by experts in Chicago
is the theory that now holds the atten-
ton of the authorities who have the
investigation in charge.
This theory, the plan of offering or
substantial rewards by the city and
state for the arrest of the criminals
responsible for the explosion and the
detention of half dozen Italians were
the outstanding developments in a
crime that has stirred the community
as it has not been aroused in half
century.
In addition citizens have already
started pouring in subscriptions for
the families of the police officers and
the woman who met death when the
bomb exploded
Bomb Found in Church.
The bomb was found in Rev. Gull
liani's church by Miss Maude Richter,
church Organist. She sent an Italian
boy, Tony MassOne, with it to the Cen
trail station and handed it to Station
Keeper Deckert. The station keeper
carried it into the squad room, where
detectives and police coming on or just
going off duty were assembled. mo-
ment later there was a flash and a
roar. Buildings rocked for blocks
around The smoke cleared. Where
detectives and the station keeper had
stood was q mass of wreckage and
fragments of human bodies.
Gov. e. L. Phillip and Aldermen
William l. Greene and Louis Weiss
were authority for the statement that
substantial rewards would be offered
by the city and the state.
List of Dead.
The list of dead follows:
Frank NJ Caswin, detectives; Henry
Deckert, station keeper; Fred W. Kali
ser, detective; David O'Brien, detec-
tive; Stephen H. Stecker, detective;
Edward Spindler, switchboard opera
tor; Albert Templin, detective; Paul
Weller, detective; Miss Catherine
Walker, an employee of the Pietsch
dye works, in station to make a COM
plaint Charles Zehauer, detective.
1t is the belief of Chief Jansen that
a band of partly organized italian an
archists with icOnOclastic ideas who
live in the Bay View section Con the
South Side) of the city is responsible
for the death of his officers and the
woman.
"The trouble started some time ago
after Rev. Mr.. Giuliana had opened
this church in the Third ward Italian
district" he said. primarily it appears
that it was religious fight. Later
Apostles of Force dominated the Or
ganization and the first result was
riot at Bay View, caused when band
of Italians, IL of whom are under
arrest, tried to break up a street meet
ing being held by Rev. Mr.. Guiliana.
"The trial is set for Wednesday,
and I believe this bomb was placed
at the church in a spirit of criminal
revenge"
Miss Maude Richter, who came here
from Rochester, n. Y, said:
'"They have been trying for a long
time to break up this congregation
Rev. Mr.. Guiliana is a former Catholic
priest. He just established here in the

THE MAN FOR PRESIDENT

Selecting a president for the stu
dent body of the University of Mis-
souri, is an important duty. During
the academic year many occasions
arise at which the student president
is to embody and execute the senti-
ment of 1900 students.
1t has become a tradition at Mis-
souri, to look upon the election in its
properly serious light.
Tomorrow the annual election takes
place again. The great desideratum
is that every student cast his ballot
exercise the right of franchise-and
thus perform his duty to the Univer-
sity with reference to student activi-
ties.
