MALONE RESIGNS
 FEDERAL OFFICER
 TO MAKE G00D''
Says He Promised Women of West He Would Help
 Get Them the Ballot.

Washington, Sept. 4.-Dudley Field Malone, customs collector at New York, rendered his resignation to the president today, in protest against the failure of the president to advo- cate passage of the federal suffrage amendment and because he permit ted the imprisonment of women who had been picketing the white house.
 MT. Malone, who, as counsel, de tended the first of the militants, told ton that inasmuch as he had prom ised women of suffrage states that he would exert all his energy to have the country endorse national suffrage, he felt obliged to resign.
 Tn quitting the office of collector, Mir. Malone leaves one of the best paying places in the government ser vice. He is son-in-law of former Senator O'Gorman. The letter of res ignation said in part:
 And if the women of the West voted to re-elect you, promised them I would spend all my energies to get the present Democratic adminisra- tion to pass the federal suffrage amendment. But the policy of the administration in permitting splen- did American women to be sent to jail in Washington, not for picketing nor for carrying banners, but on the technical charge of obstructing traf- fife, is denial of their constitutional rights for petition for the passage of the federal suffrage amendment.

Washington, Sept. 7.-Numerous in dictments for conspiracy to thwart the government war plans and tie it's hands in many ways appear to be in prospect as result of Wednesdays s nationwide raid of I. w. w. offices by department of justice agents.
 Evidence is said to be fast ac- cumulating to support the belief that a gigantic conspiracy has existed for some time past to cripple the govern ment in carrying on the war; that it's ramifications have extended into vir- tually every state; and that numer- Ous anti-war activities which ap- peared to emanate from many sources in reality had their foundation in a single group of conspirators.
 Anti-draft demonstrations, crip- bling of war industries by socalled labor disturbances and by violence, burning of crops and continuous ere ation of anti-allied sentiment, with other activities tending to embarass the government and retard the exer- else of its full strength in prosecut- ing the war, appear from recent dis

PLACE EMBARGO :. .0N GOLD EXPORTS
 TO ALL NATIONS
Secretary of Treasury and Federal Reserve Board
 Given Authority.

Washington, Sept. 7.-President Wilson tonight placed an embargo, eff fective September 10, on the ex- portation of coin, bullion and cur rency.
 He also authorized the secretary of the treasury to license such exporta- tion where they are not harmful to the public interest.
 The effect will be to place absolute control over gold exports in the hands of Secretary McAdoo and the federal reserve board. Officials believe the measure will go far toward con serving the huge store of gold accum- ulated in this country since the begin ming of the war, and which has been drawn upon recently by Japan, Mexico and Spain.

 In their present drive they have taken 30,o0o prisoners and the total loses to the Austrians are estimated at l20,000.
 Northeast of Gorizia, the Austrians have been on the defensive. On the CarSO, especially in the region of the tiermada, their Offensives have fail ed with great losses. The ground over which they charged this week, in the effort to stop the Italian advance, is deep with dead.
 German cavalry has been engaged with Russian rear guards at Rece- void, 40 miles east of Riga, but ap- parently the German advance in force has slackened. Around Frederichstadt, about 90 miles southeast of Riga, on the Dvina river, the retiring Russians have set fire to several villages. There has been no infantry activity on a large scale on the western front. North of Frezenberg in the Ypres region, the British have been com pelled to withdraw from positions taken Thursday.
 Around Lens, the Canadians have been in hard fighting with the Ger mans. On part of the sector west of Lens, counter attacks resulted in gains for the Germans, but on the south the Canadians extended their positions. The Canadian frontier now | is a serious menace to the Germans. ! Along the Souchez river on the French front, there was no infantry activity Friday.

Washington, Sept. 7-Nothing less than an invasion of her soil will drive Holland into the war, according to members of the Netherlands mission which arrived here today to discuss with the U. S. matters of food ex- ports.
 The Dutch have known hunger in the past and have suffered hardships enough to know how to bear them, the commissioners say, and although ships may be sunk and supplies cut off, they will not be drawn into the struggle on either side unless their frontiers are crossed.
