pork products to the eastern states
have been made not only by Portland
but other Pacific coast packers of

mand is generally expected for an
extended period.
The country is facing its greatest
famine in hog products, and packers

OBITUARY

Samuel Simmons was born at
Sidney, Canada, March 8, 1916
and died at Grand Rapids, Sept.
%, 1917. At the age of 6 years he
moved with his parents to Worth
township, Sanilac county, Mich,
where he made his home for many
years. In 1866 he was united in
marriage to Josephine Atkinson.
To this union were born seven
children, five of whom are now
living John of Palo Alto, Calf,
Mrs. G. M. Davis, of Grand Rap
ids; Mrs. John Irving, of Yale;
Howard, of Roseburg, and Flor
ence who lived with her father.
In 1869 he moved to Speaker
township, Sanilac county, Mich,
where he took up his residence as
pioneer farmer and lived there
on his homestead for thirty-four
years. Fourteen years ago he re-
tired from the farm and moved to
Yale where he resided until ten
weeks ago when he went to Grand
Rapids to be cared for by his
daughters.
Mr.. Simmons for many years
was an active and faithful MEM
Der of the Methodist Episcopal
church. He was a strong advocate
both by precept and example, of
an every day practical religion.
He will be missed for he was not
only a regular attendant but a
consistant supporter of the church
in every way.

Points Out That German
Colonies Will Cause
US. Trouble
War in South America
Prediction Made That Army
of 100000 Will Be
Needed There
By FRED r. PITNEI

Paris, May l5.-The danger to Brazil
from her German colonies is considered
by the French government TO be menac-
ing for the United States. and 1t is be-
lieved possible, if not even probable,
that the United States will have TO
send an army Of 100000 men or more
TO Brazil to combat the Germans there.
81 hope the people of the United
States see and understand the peril to
them of the Brazilian situation said a
high official of the Foreign Office. 1T
is necessary for them in their own in
terests to know ard understand that
the success Of Germany in the war
would mean new Germany in South
America.
There are three states in the south
OF Brazil that are wholly German.
Their population is German. their Ian
guage is German. German is taught in
the schools. Their governors and other
chief officials are German and their
armies are German.
"These states have been deliberately
colonizcd by Germany with the end in
view of Germany in South America.
German emigrants are different from
those of any other nationality. The
citizens Of other nations assimilate
with the citizens Of the new nations to
which they &C. They become a part OF
the body polite OF their new home.
Germans, on the other hand, remain r
compact, solid body. an isolated en-
tity, little Germany transported TO n
new habitat.
This is what has happened in the
south of Brazil. There are three ad-
joining states there which form a
separate entity. little Germany. in
Brazil. II can be foreseen that these
states will revolt and make war on the
rest of Brazil. In case of German sue
cess in the war it is practically certain
that these states would declare them
selves independent and ask for annex
alton to Germany.
ain any event, there is little doubt

Washington Denies
Lusitania Settlement
State Department Says Cues
ton Of Payment Was
Never Reached

Washington, May 1s.-Ohicials of the
State Department to-day emphaticslly
denied the recent semi-oficial report
in the "Norddeutsche Allgemcine Zeit-
ung" that "thc German government has
paid America 100000 marks for the
Lusitania sinking" The exchanges with
former Ambassador Won Bernstorfi and
the imperial government never APP
preached the question of monetary
settlement, il was asserted.
In this connection. II was recalled TO-
day that Count Won Bernstorf. while
ambassador, frequently referred TO the
Lusitania case as having been settled,
and he spoke Of memorandum pre-
pared by him in the name OF his gov
eminent which, he asserted, had been
accepted by the United States. On one
occasion. when the assertion was pup
lished that the famous memorandum
had been accepted by the United states
Secretary Lansing made a nat DENIAL
admitting, however, that memoran-
dun had been submitted. 81,
II was also denied that plan had
been agreed on for the settlement OF
the Lusitania case by the payment OF
a certain amount Of money for the loss
of an adults life and OF another
amount for a minors or infants life.
The State Department takes tne
ground now that the Lusitania case mas
become academic.

Sports
Replace Athletics
AT Rutgers College
Last intercollegiate Contest oil
Season Set for
To-day

New Brunswick, y. j., May ls.-Mili-
tary sports to take the place OF the
ordinary intercollegiate activities IN
athletics Is now the plan Of the Rut-
gers College athletes, although no def
rite details have been arranged. Ordi-
nary athletic activities have been called
off, and the baseball game with Temple
University to-day marks the'cnd Of the
season.
The abandonment Of athletics at Rut-
gers was decided on only after every
effort had been made to save them,
however, as the Rutgers authorities
felt that they should be maintained at
any cost as a measure Of training for
prospective soldiers. More than half
of the athletes have enlisted, while
many others have taken up other war
work.
In order to maintain the value OF the
sport incentive as an aid in training
the men Of the Rutgers battalion OF
cadets for war, it is planned to have
military sports for the cadets replace
the regular athletic activities.
