Named After Hero.

Paris, July 25.-The "Emilienne Moreau" one of the new roses that won a prize in the annual competi- tion at the Bagatelle Rose Gardens, was named after the heroine of Loos, the girl who helped to save British wounded under fire and even shoul- 'dered a rifle to help the soldiers drive the Germans from the town in the great battle which resulted in its capture. It is a magnificent white rose with very large petals and with foliage of very deep green.
 The Edith Cavell, one of last years productions at the Bagatelle Gardens, was shown alongside it.
 The judges of the rose show adopt ed resolutions asking legislators of the allied countries to give to new flowers the same protection that is given to artistic productions, litera. ture, inventions, trade marks. A new flower they asserted, represents quite as much patient effort as the produc- ton of a work of art or literature.

AMERICAN WOMAN IS BRITISH DIPLOMAT'
Mrs. Livingtone Is First to Sit
 in Negotiations

London July 27 Correspondence of the Associated Press)-The first wo- man diplomatist to sit at table Of diplomatic negotiation according to the Daily Mail, is Mrs. Darley Living stone who was one of the six British official representatives at the Anglo German Conference at the Hague re- gently, to deal with questions on pris- oncrs of war.
 Mrs Livingstone is an American married to a British officer and has been a member and secretary or the Government Committee on the Ifeat-f ment by the enemy of British Prison CTS since it was formed two years ago.
 In the early days of the war Mrs. Livingstone used to do all the inter- viewing of the sick and wounded pr1s- oners who were returned periodically and although this work is now done largely by a large staff of volunteers she still makes it a point of personally Interviewing all escaped prisoners or war.
 Mrs. Livingstone talking about her visit to the Hague said:
 People did seem surprised to find a woman among the British represen- tatives. I am sure I don't know why, because there is really nothing that women are not doing in England to- day, is there? I had no means of tell ing what the German representatives thought, because, of course, we didn't talk to each other-not socially, l mean. Indeed, it would be quite inn possible to give you an adequate ldea of h. , ceedings.
 q was there merely to assist Sir Robert Younger our chairman with information which as secrtary of the committee I naturally have at com- mand. It was real hard work all the time and both parties were concerned solely with the welfare of the prison CTS. Questions concerning them were the only ones discussed. and l think the agreements concluded will be found to be very satisfactory

BELGIAN WORKERS
 ARE SENT TO PRISON
German Officials Punish Work.
 men Who Assert Rights

Havre, France. July 25.-(Corre- spondence of The Associated Press). The Belgian government has re- ceived informa ation to the effect that deported Belgians working in the Thyssen Works at Mulheim on Ruhr, declared that as the Germans had vii plated their promise to send them back home at the end of four months they would prefer to die rather than to continue The Germans imposed fine of 30 marks each and imprison~ ment for 10 days upon the men.
 One hundred and eighty Belgians in another German factory refusing to continue work after four months, were deprived of food and thirteen of them were imprisoned at Munster.
 The Riebecksche Works, employ ing Belgian civilians in their mines, deprived the men of all nourishment for five days in order to force them to work The directors of this con- cern justified their action, saying, that the privation was not absolute, but was necessary to overcome the passive resistance of the workmen.
 Belgian civilians working at the munition factory at Crosse Wuster- urtz and at Westfalischwerke were obliged to transport hand gren- ades after having vainly protested against being put to such work.
 The Belgian government has other proofs that a great many deported Belgians, in spite of their unanimous desire to return to Belgium, were not allowed even to attend the funerals of their relatives; sons were refused the consolation of going home to bury their mothers. The deported appear to have entirely escaped the supervis- ion of the delegates of neutral coun- tries, the Germans putting forward the pretext that they are not prison CTS of war. Whenever delegates have been exceptionally authorized to visit these civilians. it has always been in the presence of German authorities. The evidence gathered by the Belgian

, KILBANE SEEKING TROUBLE.
Cleveland Boy Said to Be After Return
 Match With Leonard

Out in Cleveland Johnny Kilbane is quoted as saying that he hankers strongly for another bout with Benny Leonard. This time Johnny wants to try longer route, say of twelve rounds. All of which is we'll and good, because a twelve round return match ought to net quite a fat purse for Kllbane despite the unexpected end- ing of their last bout However, in making his request for a return match Johnny is quoted as saying that he was not in condition in his recent fight.
 AS we recall reports from his train- ing camp Johnny did a little bronco busting, played a little baseball did some boxing and spent several hours in road work Possibly he wants a chance to take a few trial jolts from a, pile driver in. making ready next time.

KERENSkY RESIGNS.
 THEN REC0NSIDERS
Minister Of Agriculture Accused
 of Being German Employe

Petrograd, Aug. As the result of accusations of being connected with the German General Staff, made against M. Tchernoff, the socialist minister of agriculture, whose resig- nation they had accepted and of a complete breakdown of the negotia- tions to bring the constitutional Dem ocrats into the Cabinet, Premier Ker- ensky and his fellow ministers, with the exception of Vice Premier Nek- rasoff, resigned last night. Later all save M. Terestchanko, the foreign minister withdrew their resignations.
 A last attempt will be made to re- construct the ministry under Premier Kerensky with the chief new mem bers being exclusively from the so- cialist and radical parties.
 In a letter to Premier Kerensky rendering his resignation. M. Tcher- noff said his motive was to obtain freedom of action in order to defend his character. His colleagues in ac- ceding to his request expressed the conviction that he would succeed in rehabilitating himself.
 Vice Premier Nekrasoff informed The Associated Press that some of the documents supposed to incriminate M. Tchernoff already had been examined. He considered the charges against the minister of agriculture as not being very grave, but the Cabinet was obliged to accept the resignation pro- visionally. These documents are said to indicate that he made contributions to newspaper in Switzerland which has relations with the German Gener- al staff It is reported that the prot folio of agriculture will be left vacant temporarily.
 Captain Nemitz has been promoted to be Rear Admiral and Commander of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. He succeeds Vice Admiral Kolchak in command of the fleet.
 The commanding general of the twelfth Russian army has decided that all soldiers belonging to units which disbanded owing to mutiny or refusal to take part in an offensive shall wear on their arms a distinctive emblem which shall be black in color When their conduct under fire shall have re- habilitated them they will be per- mitted to discard the emblem
 London, Aug, 1.-The negotiations between the Russian Cabinet Premier Kerensky and the constitutional demo- crats with a view to the latter joining a coalition government, says a Reuter- dispatch from Petrograd dated Thurs day, have been broken off.
 A dispatch to the same news agency dated Friday in Petrograd, says that M Avksentieff, chairman of the execu- tive committee of the council of peas-

The crack Cedar Hill team, con- sidered to be the fastest in an around New Haven, will make their first ap- pearance in this city since 1915, to- morrow afternoon, when they tackle the Pioneers on the Ellis street dia- mond. Followers of the locals Will remember the last time the c. H. ag gregation showed their wares to New Britain fans, defeating the Pioneers in a brilliant twelve inning tussel 1 to 0.
 Anticipating a tough battle -tomor- row, the Pioneers have put in con- siderable time during the week prac- ticing for the game. Manager Luby is undecided on his pitching selection. but the choice probably lies between Dudack or Lynch, with Corkins on the receiving end.
