are connected with the Cleveland Coal
company. which the government
charges was organized for the pur-
pose of defeating the presidents pur-
pose in setting coal prices.
That they conspired to charge Is
cents more a ton than allowed by the
government. is alleged. but 1t is under
stood that officials have evidence
tending to show that 1t was planned
to make an excess price of 81 ton
in some cases.
When arrested one of the accused
men said ito hell with the govern

The four men are all prominent in

CIVILIANS LEAVE

Rome, Nov. 13.-If Germany should

struction of the historic buildings

formed man. Germany's favorite ex-
cuse for leve1ling other cities in the
way of her war machine. has been
that they were armed fortresses' or
fortified cities" No such pretext
can by any stretch of the Imagination
apply to Venice. The city Is also
being stripped of its civilians. Free
transportation is being provided.
However. Rome today was confident
that the Italian lines would hold and
this despite the menace in the Austro-
German flank movement from As1ago
The Austrians on the lower Piave, op-
posite Venice, are undoubtedly wait

oping strategy. They are bringing up
their guns apparently in preparation
for a drive toward Treviso.
Fighting valiantly the Italians sue
ceeted in repulsing the Asiago thrust
Seemingly the Germans neglected to
prepare sufficiently for this move and
did not grant support enough to their
columns.
A semi official statement today de-
clared that the German claim OF fight
ing in the streets Of Asiago was un-
founded. The city has been a hear

the information that Senator Borah

nomination and e-election to the SEN

There was general disappointment,
not confined TO the Republicans in
congress when Borah made the an
nouncement that he would not accept

Lodge, Massachusetts; Progressives
like Hiram Johnson, California, and
Democrats like Hardwick, Georgia.

These men told him that the pro-
pressive movement in American. poll
tics required his continued activity in
the senate. His great ability so strik-
ingly displayed in the last few years
In connection with the great measures
pending has brought admirers from
the ranks of all parties. Republican
leaders we're very insistent that Borah
stay in the senate as matter of
party duty AS the Capital News COR
respondent predicted months ago.
Borah had to yield. He has made no
announcement yet but one Is expected
soon after his return to Washington.
IMPORTANT SESSION..
The coming session of congress Is
going to be one fraught with the
greatest consequence for the people.
There is likely to be some PARTISAN
ship. The administration will be
under fire for the way in which war
expenditures have been made There
is evidence Of mismanagement, in
competency and worse. There can be
no doubt about this. Sooner or later
some unpleasant revelations will be
made. They will have to be made and
certain things corrected If the war Is
to be successfully prosecuted. When
the lid is taken off. clear heads will
be needed in congress to direct the
inquiry in a way not to embarrass the
conduct of the war or to give the in
vestigation a partisan aspect. Borah
may direct the investigation. II he
cleans the official stables he may be
more in the public eve than ever be-
fore and 1920 Is not far away.
