May Put OF Dry Vote.

Washington.-Notw radi-
cal agitation among certain members of
the House for an immediate vote upon
the nationwide prohibition amend
ment, the outlook favors postpone
ment of all action on the measure until
Congress reassembles in December.
Early in the present session the
Democratic caucus went on record in
favor of taking up this amendment and
the one providing for woman suffrage
at the regular winter session. At the
time this action was taken. however
the Senate had no plan for an early
prohibition vote, and many of the
Democratic members regard the vote
in the Senate as effecting so complete
a change in the situation that the
caucus decision should be disregarded.

HE HIT BULLS EYE THEN
Governor Cox of Ohio Explains Why
His Workmanship Improved Sud-
denly on Rifle Range.

James NJ. Cox, governor of Ohio, told
this story when he visited Fort Ben
jamin Harrison, says the Indianapolis
News:
II was over at the fort this after
noon, and out at the rifle range Major
Darrow asked me if wouldn't like to
try shooting The men then were shoot
ing from the 600-yard range. I said
YES, so Major Darrow borrowed a
rifle for me from one of the men and
another for himself, and we lay down
across the sand bags and began pep
ping away"
"After each shot that either of US
made the man down in the pit waved
the red flag that meant we had missed
the target altogether.
FINALLY, after about half dozen
shots apiece, the major said: Young
man, telephone down to that man In
the pit that Major Darrow is shooting
and so the young man did, and then
the major shot again, and the pit man
waved the emblem that signified the
major had hit the bull's-eye.
"Then I said to myself, 'um hum
and so I turned to the man on my
right and I said, Young man, tele-
phone down to the pit man that the
governor of Ohio Is shooting, and thenk
the next time hit the bulls eye, too.n'

WARNINGS ON
THE DEAD TRAITORS
Their Bodies on the Russian
Highways Marked.
TRYING TO CUT OFF RETREAT
More Than Two Million Russian Sol
diers On Retreat-Eiqhth Army,
Composed Largely OF Cavalry,
In Critical Position.

London.-A dispatch from the head
quarters of the Russian Seventh Army
says the situation Is more hopeful.
Panics among the retreaters are sup
pressed ruthlessly. Three divisions of
cavalry have taken positions across
the whole front of retreat.
Deserters are shot and attempts to
spread panic are suppressed by
prompt executions. Deserters, spies
and agitators who enjoyed complete
immunity under the committee system
lie dead on the highways. A paper
pinned on the corpses reads:
Here lies traitor to his country"
Red badges and other symbols
which accompanied the decentralization
have almost disappeared.
1t Is conseryatively estimated that
more than two million Russian troops
are steadily marching rearward. These
constitute the Eleventh and Seventh
Armies with their reserves. The
Eighth Army, which is largely cavalry
and not included in the foreign figures,
also is retreating and it's position, says
the correspondent, is extremely
critical. The Germans are straining
every effort to capture it while fol-
lowing up the Eleventh and Seventh
Armies and 1t looks as If the Eighth
Army might be caught in bag.
The notable growth in the number
of enemy war prisoners escaping from
Russia since the revolution is engag-
ing the attention of the military au-
thorities. According to published data
from the beginning of the war until
March a total of $3.50 escapes have
been registered, whereas during March
735 managed to get away, in April
2,51S and in May more than 5000
escaped.
North of Husiatyn, on the Russo
Galician frontier, the Russians re-
stored their position on the East bank
of the River Zbrocz, says the official
statement by the Russian War De-
partment. Austro-German efforts to
force a passage across the Zbrocz in
the region of Pukliany and Podlipic
were frustrated.
Zaleszik has been evacuated by the
Russians under heavy pressure.
On the Roumanian front fortified
positions on the right bank of the
River Putna, northwest of Soveia, were
captured by the Roumanians.
An official statement issued says:
According to reports of secret serv-
ice agents, the present German Of
fensive was undertaken as the result
of detailed testimony concerning in
ternal conditions of the Russian Army,
which had been placed in the hands
of the German chief of staff. Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg, it appears,
had promised Emperor William that in
two months he would put Russia out
of action"

eurtail consumption of wheat bread,
butter, sugar and young animals meat

klnd of -four besides wheat in making
wheat bread and rolls; featuring of
corn and rice cakes in place of wheat

ekables and fruits for heavy meats

JAPAN Warned
BY PRESIDENT
Must Divert Her New Ships to
War Uses.
NO STEEL UNLESS SHE DOES
Shipping Board Prepares To Com
mandeer All American Tonnage.
Britain To Recall Ships
Loaned To Allies.

Washington.-The imperative need
of ships in. the transatlantic service
was disclosed in indications that the
Shipping Board Is preparing to COM
mandeer all American tonnage and in
an order issued by President Wilson
which has the effect of cutting off steel
exports to Japan unless Japanese ves-
sells are diverted to war uses.
The Shipping Board probably will
announce Communicating program
within few days. 1t will call for the
requisitioning of ships under authority
recently given to the President by Con-
gress and probably will include ar
rangements for turning the vessels
back to their owners for actual opera
ton. The Government, 1t is said, has
no desire to operate the vessels itself,
but through control of charters can oil
rect trade routes and at the same time
can lower ocean freight rates. Coast
wise tonnage and vessels taken off
South American runs to be put to car
rying supplies to Europe probably
traI ships. Il s
The British and American Govern
ments have about reached an agree
ment for joint control of all the
worlds tonnage and the Shipping
Boards move toward communicating
is preliminary step in that arrange
ment Under the plan the United
States would operate most of the neu
trail tonnage and Great Britain would
have under its control allied ships
The arrangement would be used also
to bring down freight rates.
Great Britain is about to recall Brit
ish ships that have been put at the dis
posal of her allies. Continued sinkings
are said to have made it necessary
that every British vessel be used in
supplying the British people and
armies.
The Presidents instructions, which
will bring japanese ships into the At
lantic, were issued to the Division OF
Export Licenses, and provide that nc
steel or iron products shall go tC
Allied countries unless they are to be
used for actual war purposes or will
contribute directly to prosecution oi
the war. Japan has been large buyer
of American ship plates and has been
building up great merchant fleet
About per cent. of her tonnage is in
the Atlantic and the remainder is
carrying Pacific cargoes at extremely
high rates.
The Shipping Board has just put
into operation it's control over coast,
wise freight rates and will begin with.
in short time to hear complaints. 1t
has no power to Ak rate schedules. but
on complaint, can order specific rates
cut if they are found discriminatory.

What Resolution Provides.

AS adopted. the resolution, which
was submitted by Senator Sheppard,
of Texas, Democrat, would add the
following article to the Federal Con-
stitution:
The manufacture, sale or transporta-
ton of intoxicating liquors within, the
importation thereof into, or the ex-
portation thereof from the United
States and all territory subject to the
jurisdiction thereof, for beverage pur-
poses Is hereby prohibited.
This article shall be imperative un-
less it shall have been ratified as an
amendment to the Constitution by the
Legislatures of the several states. as
provided in the Constitution, within
six years from the date of the submis
sion thereof to the states by the Con-
gress.
The Congress shall have power to
enforce this article by appropriate
legislation.
Although most of the debate on the
resolution had been perfunctory, the
usual scenes marking the end of
warmly contested legislative fights
were re-enacted. Brief, spirited
speeches under 10-minute limit were
made to crowded galleries, with the
Senate sweltering in one of the hottest
of summer days.
