The defense contended that the ar

into repute or of affecting pending
cases, but merely was an attack on
Judge Mechem in his private capac-

litical campaign waged against tho

Military OeveIopments

PETROGRAD, Tuesday. Sept. II. 10
a. m.-General Kornilofrs march to-
ward Petrograd continues. According
to statement circulated at the winter
palace early this morning and which
is repeated in today's newspapers. but
which has not been officially confirm
ed or denied. the first collision be-
tween the troops and the government
forces already has taken place, the
followers of Korniloff having begun
the hostilities by Bombarding govern
ment positions with heavy guns.
The government is still withholding
news regarding the military situation.
A further report is to the effect that
last night two columns OF KOrniloff
troops entered Gatchina, thirty-five
miles from Petrograd. without oppo-
sitiOn and that other forces are NOV
ing on Tosno with the aim of cutting
the Petrograd railroad.
During the night telephone COM
munication with Tver Central Russia)
ceased.
1t is stated that former Minister OF
War Savinkoff intends to command
the government troops. the other gen
eral having refused to do so. while
General KlembOvsky. commander of
the northern army. has now definitely
championed Korniloff's cause.
The army of General Kornifoff Op-
Grating against the capital is believed
to consist of the following:
Several COssack regiments. the first
cavalry corps. the savage divis-
ion;" Tekko-Turkoman horsemen. a
so-called striking battalion" Of pick
ed men organized to fight against
Germany. so-called Korniloff battal-
ions. railroad and sapper units. heavy
artillery OF four divisions and some
batteries of light artillery. All the
troops are under command of General
Klimoff. former commandant of a
cavalry corps.

ONE INSTEAD
OF SIX SUBS
SUNK IN SEA
ENGAGEMENT
Typographical Error Leads to
Mistake that Six Subma-
rines Were Sunk in Fight
Off the French Coast.
(By Review Leased Wire. }

WASHINGTON, Sept. ia typo
graphical error in transcribing state
ent for the press today from an Off
cial report to the navy department
made it appear that six German sub
marines probably had been sunk of
the French coast when they attacked
a feet of merchantmen, including al
least one American vessel. The facts
are, so far as is known, that one
submarine probably was destroyed
and two of the steamers went down.
A corrected statement was issued by
Secretary Daniels.
Meaaer Account Only
The department has only meager
account of the fight and additional
details have been asked for by cable.
The report came from the American
tanker Westwego through Paris, the
vessel apparently having reached a
French port after the fight. The names
and nationality of the two ships lost
were not given.
Occurred September 5
The Westwego, an armed vessel,
was en- route to Europe, and from
the fact that she was cruising in COM
pany with other merchant craft, navy
officers assumed that the fleet was
under convoy of naval vessels, prob,
ably of American destroyers. The
tanker reported September that the
fight occurred September 5. The brief
statement received from Paris said
that the six submarines had made a
massed attack upon the merchant
fleet; that two of the steamers were
sunk and that one of the submarines
probably was lost.
Mistake Made
In preparing for the press, in the
bureau of operations of the navy de-
partment, a statement of the contents
of the dispatch, it was written that
"all" of the six submarines probably
had been lost. Later, on checking
the message and statement issued to
the press, it was found that the WORD
was "one" In the dispatch.
Germans In Error
The fact that the submarines at
tackled the merchant feet in such
force led to the conclusion that
the German commander enormously
thought he had to deal with troop
or with army supply ships.

Wages

Reports are being circulated in
other mining districts of the state
that Sc the day is being paid miners
in this district Here the report is
in circulation from Globe that Sc
the day is being paid in that dis
trict Telegraphic inquiries made
of different districts in the state
bring replies showing that in no
district has the regular profit shar-
ing wage scale been departed from
by copper producers, nor is there
any intention of departing from it
at this time. In consequence, the
wages being paid miners in the
state are $5.25 under the Bisbee
scale and $50 in those districts
using the miami scale. The latter
is effective in Globe. The purpose
of the false reports is supposedly
to create dissatisfaction among
miners in the different districts.
The effort is of a piece with other
pro-German endeavors at confusion
and disruption, and its purveyers
liable to federal action.

SUPREME COURT
DENIES MOONEY
ANOTHER TRIAL
High Court of the State of
California Refuses Convict
ed Bomb Thrower Another
Trial for His Crime.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. H.
Thomas ]. Mooney, under sentence oi
death for murder growing out of a
Lomb explosion here last year, was de.
MED new trial today by the state su
preme court. The denial was based
on the consent OF State Attorney Cen
eral U. S. Webb for reversal OF Judg.
ment and not on the record in the
case.
No Power
In its decision the court held that
it had no power under the constitu-
tion to consider matters outside the
record in the case, and that author
tiles declare such applications should
be made to the executive rather than
the judicial arm of the state govern
ment."
Consent Follows Expose
The attorney generals consent to a
new trial for Mooney, who was con-
victed last February for one of the
murders in connection with an explo-
sion during a preparedness day parade
July 22, 1916, which killed ten persons,
followed the expose Of Frank C. Ok
mans alleged attempt to suborn per-
jury in the case. Webb at that time
declared that Mooney was entitled to
a new trial lin the interest of JUS
tice."
Refuses Recognition
The court declared subsequently
that Webb's mere consent 'constitut-
ed nothing that it could act upon and
invited motion in support of the con-
sent from the defendants counsel"
Irregularity Charged
This motion, recently filed and arg
ued, was opposed in a memorandum
filed by District Attorney Charles NJ.
Fickert, who declared the attorney
generals stipulation of consent was
irregular and vicious"
Moneys appeal for judgment of the
record was not affected by today's de-
cision, according 10 his counsel.
Oxman Trial to Start
Oxman, who was a material witness
against Mooney, will be brought to
trial tomorrow.

fBy Review Leased wire

WASHINGTON,- -Sept. 11.-Three
exist between senate and house con-
ferees on the war tax bill when they
begin their work, probably tomorrow
They are on the income, excess profits
and second-class mail matter sections.
Another Delay Probable
Democratic Leader Kitchin an
nounced tonight that he would ask
unanimous consent tomorrow to send
the bill to conference and none of the
republican members indicated that
they would object. The senate al
ready has named its conferees.
Agreement Soon
Confidence is universally expressed
that an agreement soon will be reach
ed on the measure, despite the wide
differences on the three sections.
House members are pleased with
many changes made by the senate.
Points at Issue
Some house members say the senate
income tax sections provisions for col
lecting information instead of taxes at
the source, gives corporations an op-
portunity to escape taxation and shift
it to the people who supply their
funds. They also oppose the senate
plan for excess profits tax assess
ments.
Compromise on Mail
A compromise on the second-class
mail rates is expected by the house
leaders. The senate eliminated en-
tirely the house proposal to raise the
rates enormously.
