Labor Shortage Worries Food
Board; City Prices Quadru.
ple Those at Farms

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-Officials Of
the Food Administration are disturbed
by persistent reports of shortage OF
labor and poor distribution Of farm
products. With abundant crops yege-
tables and fruit in many sections are
rotting because farmers have no help
and cannot find labor to gather them.
Meanwhile orchard and farm prod
ucts are selling in cities at relatively
high prices. For example, the wife OF
a Food Administration official bought a
crate of peaches on farm not far from
Washington for so cents. The same
quality of peaches in the city cost 81 a
crate. Tomatoes sold as high as $3.50

them for 80 cents.
Appeals are being made in different
sections of the country for labor 10 help

Two German Editors
Indicted for Treason
Federal Grand Jury Charges Philadelphia "Tage-
blatt' Men Are Guilty Also of Conspiracy to
Aid the Enemy

and actual autocrats as compared with
Kaiser Wilhelm, who was painted as a
theoretical autocrat only.
THE 'Tageblatt' editors called the
vengeance of the heavens down on the
head of the Russians for having re-
fused the kaiser's offer of a separate
peace. which would have released sew
eral large German armies for use
against the American soldiers on the
Western front.
"As the exposure Of their propaganda
continued from day TO day, the rage
blatt" editors. however. took notice to
the extent Of becoming more and more
abusive, at times devoting several col
umns to calling names
But their reasonable work con-
tinued~ ~unsbated. They exulted over
every German victory and over every
American ship sunk by the submarine
pirates. They falsified their alleged
news dispatches, which were taken from
newspaper clippings
Every anti-American propaganda
started in this country by pacifists was
back to the limit By the 'Tageblatt,'
which advocated legal proceedings TO
prevent American troops from being
sent to France, and openly declared
that the war was forced on the Ameri-
can people by an autocratic govern
ment against the will and interests OF
the country.
"The 'Tageblatt' editors declared that
the war was a plot of England, and
that America was inveigled only to pull
John Bulls chestnuts out of the fire.
In every attack Germany made on
America and American citizens, the
'Tageblatt' editors found Germany fully
justified"
The speedy finding of indictments
against the "Tageblatt" prisoners is
believed to indicate the desire of the
government to hurry them to trial, not
merely with an intention Of convicting
and Furnishing them, but with the more
important purpose Of curbing and
stamping out sedition and treason
which has spread through the land dur
ing the period of apparent passiveness
on the part OF the Federal authorities

Kornilof and TWo Other
Generals Are Arrested
At Their Headquarters

PETROGRAD, Sept. 15.-General Kor-
niloff, leader Of the recent rebellion
against the Provisional Government,
and General Lukomsky, commander OF
the Northern front, who refused to take
command Of the Russian armies after
Korniloff was dcposed, have been ar
rested.
News Of the arrest of General Korni-
loff was first conveyed in a telegram
received by Premier Kerensky from
General Alexief, the chief of staff. So
far only the following details have been
received:
AT 10 o'clock last night General Kor-
niloff and Generals Lukomsky and Ro-
manovsky and Colonel Pleustobevsky-
Pliushkhen were arrested.
"The members Of the commission Of
inquiry are due at Mohilev at midnight,
and the arrested persons will be given
into their hands. Such other officers as
the commission selects also will be ar
rested.
"All the troops at Mohilev are true to
the Provisional Government and recog-
nize my authority"
Premier Kerensky in an order Of the
day to the army and the feet, after
stating that General Korniloff's revolt
disorganized the operations at the
front, orders the soldiers to cease a !
political disputes in the army, whicn
must do everything in its power 10 re-
store its fighting force.
The Premier instructs the soldiers to
resume the transport of troops accord
ing TO orders of the General staff, to
stop arresting their commanders, the
right to do which belongs only to the
judicial authorities; not to remove
their commanders from their posts, ana
not TO form voluntary detachments on
the pretext of fighting the counter rev.
olutionary movement.
The order of the day concludes with
the assurance that the army, which
showed its complete fidelity and trust
in the Provisional Government during
the recent troubles, will realize that
the country can only be saved by the
reestabishment Of army discipline and
By the close union OF all elements

Korniloff Taken Prisoner;
Fate in Doubt; Revolt Ends
Rebellious Army Commander Surenders to
General Alexieff at His Headquarters; Policy Of
Vengeance Urged by Soldiers
BY Arthur S. Draper

LONDON, Sept. 15.-With the arrest
of Korniloff and his principal accom-
plices the Russian revolt may be con-
sdered ended.
1t is reported that the former gem
eralissimo is being taken to Petrograd,
but there is no clew as 20 the penalty
he will pay. General Alexief met
Korniloff at his headquarters, where the
latter yielded to arrest without show
Of resistance.
One of the ironies Of Korniloff's
pc sition is that before his revolt he
strenuously demanded that the death
penalty" be restored in the Russian
army.
What is infinitely more striking than
KorniIof's arrest is the policy Of ven
geance on which the Soviet (the Work
mems CounciD plans to embark if it
carries out the threat contained in its
proclamation. It's extraordinary pro-
gramme includes the immediate pro-
posal TO all the belligerents of gem
eral democratic peace, the proclamation
of a democratic republic. the dissolu-
ton of the Duma, the immediate de-
livery to the Peasants Committee Of all
large estates, the naturalization Of all
important branches of industry. heavy
taxation of capital and property and
the confiscation of war profits.

ing much of the support Of the Cadets,

indictments were found to-day against
two Of the Philadelphia "Tagebls:t'
editors, Louis Werner, editor-in-chief,
and DR.. Martin Dsrkow, managing edi-
tor.
An additional indictment under the
espionage act was found by the Fed
eral Grand Jury against these two men
and the other "Tageblatt" defendants,
Peter Schsefer, president; Paul NOgel,
treasurer, and Herman Lemke, business
manager, who are charged with having
conspired to promote the success of
the enemies of the United States
The penalty under the treason charge
brought against the two editors is
death. or, in the discretion of the court,
Imprisonment. The lightest possible
penalty is five years in the peniten-
tiary.
The penalty under the conspiracy
charge brought against all FIVE defend
ants is Imprisonment up to twenty
years and fines up to $4,000.
In the conspiracy indictment there
are two counts, one for making and
circulating false reports, to the detri-
ment of the United States, and one
for conspiring TO promote the success
of the enemies of the United States.
In the treason indictment there are
nine seperate counts specifying the
reasonable acts with which the de-
PENDANTS are charged. They include:
"In bold defiance of public opinion,
and apparently feeling secure against
prosecution, the "Tageblatt' editors
wrote editorials branding President

District Attorney Swami declared
yesterday that his grand jury inquiry
into soap-box speeches and street corner
forums was far from being an attempt
to saddle responsibility upon the police
as a political move. 1t was undertaken
without Interior motive, said the prose-
cutor, and it's results were imperilled
simply because the grand jury had
handed up a presentment which would
give aid and comfort to the enemy"
As to reports that the investigation
was a move in the political game, Mr.
Swami said:
GLOW could there be anything like
that when the presentment would have
to be drawn by the foreman, Alexander
Konts, who is against me? My reason
for asking that Mr.. Konta's first pre-
sentiment be not filed was because he
insisted on pointing out the fact that
there was no evidence against the men
who have been arrested, and that there
were no alien and sedition laws nor any
other law on our Stalule poohs OH
which they could be indicted.
IL told Mr.. Konta that q presentment
of that kind would be as bad as bullets
in the backs of our boys in France.
said it would make the kind of cable
gram that would please Berlin. l do
not understand the reason why Mr..
Konta should raise such controversy
as this at this time"
The District Attorney was asked
whether he knew that Mr.. konta was
foreign born citizen. He said:
81 know that Dir. Konta was born IN
Austria, but | am not saying anything
about that. ] do know that he Is u
courteous gentleman, and have always
had a high regard for him personally
and socially. But whenever ! have rea-
son to believe that any person, how
ever intimately / may know him So
cially. is doing anything, even unwit-
tingly, to injure the country's cause, 1t
is my duty to tell him so. l told Mr..
Konts that his presentment would give
aid and comfort TO the enemy, and /
stand by that statement"

Mr.. oKnta last night made the fol-
lowing statement:

Mr.. Swami and Judge Mcintyre, who
charged the grand jury on the soap,
box matter, conferred yesterday, and
each announced that he had agreed that
the matter could best be handled by
the city magistrates. Judge Mcintyre,
when asked whether that meant that
no evidence would ever be placed be-
fore the grand jury. said that the DIS
trict Attorney, the police and the
grand Jury could determine that: lie
said il would devolve upon the Prose,
cutor to put cases before the grand
iury where the police and magistrates
had apparently failed to act.
Moffett Invited to Appear
Mr.. Swami sent letter yesterday to
Cleveland Moffet., chairman OF the
Vigilance Committee, SO3 Fifth Avenue.
inviting him TO appear.
The District Attorney was told that
rumors were being circulated that he
had not complied with the request of
the grand jury to have John ID. Moore,
national secretary Of the Friends or
Irish Freedom. who was arrested for
disorderly conduct on the complaint OF
Mofrett, appear before the grand jury.

Mr.. Swami.
