Sensation at Washington.
Washington.-The governments ex-
posture of how Sweden's legation in
Argentina acted as a secret channel
of Communication for Count Luxburg,
German charge in Buenos Aires and
the Berlin foreign office, has created
a sensation which absorbs the diplo-
matte corps and all official quarters
almost to the exclusion of all other
subjects connected with the war.
AS revelation of the Vaccinations
of German diplomacy it takes rank
second only to the celebrated Zim-
norman note plotting war between
the United States and Japan and
Mexico.
Would Not Break With Sweden.
State department officials contin.
ued their policy of absolute silence,
but it was plain they deplored any
attempt to color the incident as fore
casting a diplomatic break between
the United States and Sweden.
No such development is thought
of at this juncture. At the present
stage it is wholly matter between
Argentina, Sweden and Germany
with the United States, her allies and
the rest of the world interested on
lockers, eager to know how the most
remarkable train of events will bt
explained or dealt with by the three
governments.

KANSAS CITY SOAP MAKERS
ARE OUT ON A STRIKE
Workers Demanding an Eight-Hour
Day-Affects 1000 Workers.
Other Strikes There.

Kansas City, Mo.-With the walk
out of 700 employees at Peet Brothers
soap plant and an alleged sympathe-
tic strike of workers at the Kansas
City Packing Box company, strikes in
four different industries involving
nearly 1000 workers are in progress
in greater Kansas City.
Higher wages and an eight-hour
day were the demands stated by the
striking Peet Brothers employees af-
ter organizing a soap makers union.
Packing plant officials announced
they would treat only with a commit
tee of strikers and not with organic
ers and there was said to be no i'm
mediate prospect for settlement of
the packing house employees strike
involving nearly 5000 workers and
four of the seven plants in Kansas

MANUFACTURE OF
WHISKY STOPPED.
The Prohibition Clause of Food Con-
troll Has Now Become Effective
Few DistilIeries Cease.

Washington.-The manufacture Of
whisky ceased throughout the nation
Sept. 9Th, when the prohibition clause
of the food control act became
effective.
Millions of bushels of grain, which
food officials say would otherwise be
ground up for whisky, will thus be
released for food. How many mill
ons no one knows, for the manu-
facture of alcohol for beverage pur-
poses is SO closely blended with the
production of alcohol for industrial
purposes that there is no way of
determining the exact amount.
OF the 1OO,OOO,OOO bushels of grain,
or Whereabouts, which goes into the
distilleries each year, about 40 per
cent, experts estimate, comes out
in the form of whisky and other dis
titled beverages. The remainder
made into alcohol of exactly the
same characteristics as that used fol
whisky, eventually finds it's way into
perfume, toilet waters, bay rum medi
cines and to industries where dena
tured alcohol is used in ever in
creasing quantities.
| Approximately 116,000,000 gallons
Of whisky are produced each year by
American distilleries. Production o.
alcohol by the same distilleries fol
commercial and medicinal use!
other than beverages approximate
LAG, 100000 gallons. The manu-
facture of alcohol for the latter pur
poses will continue as usual prob
ably in greater volume, and few o
the larger distilleries, If any, will
have to shut down, according t
government authorities.
The class Of distilleries which will
be put out of business is composer
almost wholly Of small plants operat
ed by from one man to half dozel
men located in California, Ohio an
New Jersey and producing brand
from grapes, apples and peaches
These produce approximately $500
900 gallons year.

General Trade Conditions.

Bradstreet's says: Governmental
buying, moderate expansion in regu-
lar fall business, light retail trade
at the east, exceptionally good crop
reports, activity in industry, liquida-
ton in the stock market, induced by
concern over the excess profits tax, and
unanimity of opinion respecting the
expected large proportions of fall
trade stand out as the prominent fea-
lures of present trade conditions.
In the larger sense war demands
concededly dwarf ordinary commercial
business perhaps to greater extent
than at any time in the last three
years, but even so, progress in normal
channels is seen now that the fall
season is close at hand, this nantes
tation being more evident at centers
that cater to the agricultural regions
than it is in the industrial zones,
which latter certainly continue active.
1t is suggested, however, the indus
trial workers have felt the burdens
of the high cost of living in great de-
gree wherefore they are prone to econ
omize, while agriculturists, largely
self-sustaining, have profited from the
prolonged era of high prices.
House trade in the larger staple lines
has expanded in a conservative way
thanks to the presence of numerous
visiting buyers in the more important
markets.
Retail trade ranges from fair to
good, the latter word characteristic OF
conditions in sections wheer soldiers
are encamped, particularly at the
: south.

Cavalry Horses Are
Poisoned, Is Belief

Toulouse, France, July 5.-Cavalry
horses have been dying in large
numbers from a mysterious disease
in different regions of the south of
France. The mortality has reached
sixty per cent. to seventy per cent.
of new contingents arriving at
Toulouse, Abb, Bordeaux, Narbonne
and Perpignan. Horses apparently
sound and we'll when they are un-
loaded from the cars die so soon
after being stabbed that it is impos-
sible to treat them. This situation
dates from 1914, soon after the
declaration of war. The mortality
was greatest in the spring of 1915
aud it is still alarming.
Horse dealers and veterinaries of
Toulouse have been unable to ac-
count for this strange epidemic.
Some veterinaries assume that it is
an infectious influenza; others sus-
pect that a subtle means of slow
poisoning is practiced on the animals
while enroute from the farm to the
cavalry depot.

Wife Slayer Prefers
Shooting to Gallows

Salt Lake City, Utah, July g.
Howard De Weese, sentenced to
death for the Staying of his wife last
September, has chosen to be shot
rather than hanged at the laws
hands, July 6. He is resigned to his
fate and says he hopes that no steps
will be taken to gain a new trial or
a rcprieve.
The laws of Utah provide that a
person sentenced to death may
choose the way TO die. Before decid-
ing upon being shot, De Weese ask
cd a prison guard questions relative
TO the caliber of the bullets, stating
that he did not want the marksmen
TO play" with him but to make
death instantaneous.
De Weese eloped with the wife
of Harry w. Fisher, haberdasher,
from New York. They went to Reno
and Pacific coast cities to live. Last
September the pair who had married
at Reno after Mrs. Fisher obtained
q divorce, came to Salt Lake City.
A few days later neighbors be-
came suspicious and the apartment
was entered. They discovered the
body of Mrs. De Weese, her fea-
lures smashed by a flatiron which
lay on the bed beside her.
a few months later De Weese sur
rendered to the Chicago police. In
the interval between his surrender
and trial, he confessed to numerous
burglaries and boasted that he was
the greatest diamond thief of the
last decade. He asserted that his
wife was slain by robbers with whom
he formerly associated. who had
tracked him and his wife to Salt
Lake City and, when he was out,
committed the murder to obtain
$4,000 worth of jewels which De
Weese said he had stolen.
