cal prisoners they will refuse to work,
and in return have been told that I'M

MARY Windsor, Lucy Branham, Er-
nestine Hara, Hilda BIumberg, Maud
Malone. Pauline Fortall Adams, Ell

a matter of principle after careful
consideration and from it we shall not
recede."
The district commissioners referred
the communication to the board OF

ply to the prisoners petition, stated
that they had wilfully persisted in vi

Execution Of Mata Hari Not

Paris. Oct, 20.-The Associated Press
asked Jules Cambon. general secre-
tary to the ministry Of foreign affairs,
whether he had seen the attempts Of
the German press to point out simi-
Iarities between the executions of Mata
Hari and Edith Cavell. M. cambon
replied. fss si "A sH
'Iihe German audacity in daring to
compare Malta Hari with Edith Cavell
surpasses belief Miss Caven was a
woman respectable and respected, and
devoted to charitable work She was
shot for aiding Belgian soldiers to es-
cape to Holland. This, In German
eyes, may be a crime, but not one that
endangered their army.
,Mata Hari was a courtesan. It
was proved that she was a spy and
the center of spying system. Her
correspondence showed that she re-
ceived money from Berlin. She her
self admitted that she was one OF
Germany s. chief spies in France, who
used the relations she had been able
to make by her mode of life. She

Whatever Fate of Battles

Paris, Oct. 20.-In the discussion
preceding the passing of vote of con-
fidence in the government by a great
majority in the chamber of deputies
yesterday several members criticised
the policy of the ministry as being in-
coherent and lacking energy.

replied, that it is the restitution OF

The premier denied acting as ju-
rist in the Daudet-Malvy affair. The
accusations of M Daudet were out

going on, so the government was able
to take them up and reduce them to
nothing.
