CONFIDENCE IS EXPRESSED UPON
 JAP-U.S. FUTURE
Viscount Ishii Tells Newport Gathering That United States and Japan Stand on Threshold of Long Friend ship.
(By Review Leased wire.)

NEWPORT, R. l., Sept. r. - Full ing between America and Japan would increase to the end of all time was expressed today by ViscOunt Ishii, head of the Japanese mission, in his only public utterance during the two day visit of the party to this ciyt.
 One Chapter
 "The sixty years just passed must constitute one full chapter in the his tory of Japan. During all that time the Pacific ocean, so illimitable to us. has been made more narrow daily. The east and west. which stood with out a thing in common, except their common humanity, have been drawn closer and ever closer, until today we stand shoulder to shoulder as friends and allies defying the power of evil to destroy that splendid herit- age which we are agreed to share.
 Rosy Future
 "I am convinced that with the opening of this new chapter of inter- national history, and so through the end of ali time. our good understand ing will increase. The road between our homes will become more and more the beaten track of neighbors.
 Welcome Extended
 "I am more than ever convinced that we have done with the difficult uages over which we labored in the night of doubt, and that in the full light of honest purpose, with the eyes of faith and trust we shall both. as nations free. strong and independent, make more frequent pilgrimages to the shrine we love-you to Tokio, where we hope to bid you welcome soon. and we to Newport, whose beau ty and wealth of hospitality exceeds the most vivid picturings of our i'm aginations.
 Leave for Boston
 The reception came at the close of a day largely given over to showing the visitors some of the workings of the war machine of their American allies. They leave for Boston tomor- row.

INTERVIEW ATTRACTS NOTICE

 LONDON. Sept. 1.-The Associated Press interview with Admiral Lind man, Swedish minister of foreign af- fairs, which was carried in the press today, attracted wide attention in of- ficial circles. where astOnishment was expressed that the minister had not yet made any similar expression of re- gret to the British government.
 We have been expecting a state ment for Admiral Lindman along these lines" said a foreign official. but we expected it would come in an official way. An expression of regret along these lines, if made in formal way, would do much to smooth rela- tions. But thus far Sweden has not officially expressed any regret or of- fered any explanation.
 The foreign minister's statement to the Associated Press covers the ground quite broadly and We should be very glad if he sees fit to repeat it in substance in a formal communication to us.
 We hope that the Associated Press interview is the precursor of an of- ficial statement which will stand for a basis of removal of any clouds be- tween Great Britain and Sweden" !,

FEDERAL GUARANTEES
(By Review Leased Wire.)

WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.-Federal guarantees against losses in the live stock industry were discussed with the food administration today by rep resentatives of western stock raisers as a means of encouraging increase of the meat supply for the next year. Small producers claim that feed prices are too high to justify fattening or raising new animals, and that the guarantee plan would prevent the slaughter of thousands of lambs and feeders during the fnll and early winter.

PETROGRAD, Sept. F. General Kaledines has resigned as hetman or the Don Cossacks.

 The under secretary, who acted for Dr. von Kuehlman, the German for eign secretary during his absence in Munich, asked the Argentine minister to request the Argentine government to notify Count von Luxburg that the German government wished him to re- turn immediately to Germany to ex- plain the entire matter personally. Dr. Molina was asked to obtain safe con- duct for Count Luxburg.
 Count von Luxburg today announc- ed that he would probably sail on Sep tember 2S for Bilbao, Spain, on a Spanish steamer.

 Foreign Minister Pueyrredon, after reading Dr. Molina's cablegram, an nounced that he declined to accept the assurance of Baron von Dem Busch Haddenhaus as a satisfactory settle ment of the Luxburg incidetn because it was merely the verbal statement of an under secretary.

UNITS ARE INCREASED
WISCONSIN AND MICHIGAN REGT-
MENTS BROKEN UP AT WACO
ENTIRE REORGANIZATION.

A petition is being circulated at
Platteville praying the government
not to divide the members of the local
company who enlisted for national
guard service. It is set forth that the
men enlisted with the idea of going
together and their friends and rela-
tlves will feel better should the units
remain as originally planned.
That the petition will receive con-
s1deration, weH-meant as it is, seems
doubtful. The exigencies of the re-
organization now under way at Waco
require sweeping changes to strength
en- the units to battle-line size.
The Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Wis
consin regiments will be broken UP
and used to fill the 127th and 128th
regiments of the Sixtyfourth brigade
The First Wisconsin cavalry, under
Col. Carl Penner, has been transferred
to the artillery branch of the service
120th regiment. The Wisconsin sig
nal corps will remain intact. Train
ing will take place for sixteen weeks
when the men will sail, it is said. Po-
sitions have been created for many
new officers, and 'non-coms" in the
Wisconsin division will have a good
chance for something better.
Tents are being equipped with
stoves, as the Waco winters are not
mild. Magazines and tobacco will es-
pecially be appreciated by the boys.

station they met the fast express,
nOrth-bOund, which does not stop be-
tween East Dubuque and Prairie du

on a small bridge. Fred Kress jump
ed and saved his life, although one
arm was broken in two places and
other severe hurts were sustained.
Louis Kress was hurled with the We
hicle from the track and was instantly
killed. His head was badly crushed,

u. S. CROPS WILL BE
SUFFICIENT FOR WORLD

Washington, Sept. 3O.-With the
biggest crop of food products ever
grown in the United States, which
means the biggest in the world, ripe
for harvest, the American farmers
have scored the first victory of the
war, while the trench army still waits
to get into action.
There is enough food in sight to
win the war; enough food in the Unit
ed States to feed the world" an
nounced Carl Vrooman, assistant sec
rotary of agriculture.
According to official figures made
public today, there will be harvested
3,24G 100000 bushels of corn, half a
billion in excess of the average crop,
and 100000 bushels of white pota-
toes, which is 100,O0O,000 bushels in
excess of the average. To practically
all other food crops, except wheat, the
same proportion OF increase will ap-
ply
