Rena Mooney, whose trial on mur-
der charge grew out of the prepared
ness parade bomb explosion mere last

before and after the explosion oc-
Cured and that she had not visited
the scene of the explosion at any time
during the day, We're two of the out
standing statements made by Mrs.

she detailed her movements from
early in the morning until she said
she saw the parade end late in the

ed essentially the testimony of her
sister, Mrs. Belle Hammerberg, and

my husband and 10 men who were
engaged in draping a flag in front of
the building said Mrs. Mooney.

defendant, is under sentence of death
for one of the bomb murders.
I'VE stayed in the apartment for
about forty-five minutes" said Mrs

The state contended that at the
time Mrs. Mooney said she went to
the roof she was with other defend
ants in the bomb cases and was pre-
pairing to go with them to the scene
of the explosion, where it is alleged
that Warren X. Billings, under SEN
tence of life Imprisonment for one of
the bomb murders, deposited a suit

Liverpool, July 16.-Goat flesh is
being sold as mutton in considerable
quantities among the poorer classes
in Liverpool. With the sheep
brought over from Ireland there is al

Copenhagen, July 1G.--Tn their re-
view of the administration of the re g
firing German chancellor, DR., Won
Bethmann- -Hollweg the German
newspapers comment prominently and
often in an uncomplimentary manner
on his treatment of relations with
America. In the Vosssche Zeitung,
George Bernhard openly accuses Dr.
Won Bethmann- HollwcF and his for
eign secretary, DR. Zimmerman, of
having played a double game with
Washington, making war inevita BILE
by attempts to deceive and mislead
President Wilson in regard to the
policy and intentions of Germany.
Duplicity Caused War.
Herr Bernhard intimates that the
submarine policy if managed sue
cessfully might not have led to war
with the United States had not these
diplomats artificially increased the
danger and destroyed every chance of
avoiding a break. He says they en-
couraged the idea of mediation by
President Wilson in America but
home, launched the proposal to Mex
leo to turn against the United States
while negotiating with Mr.. Wilson and
arranged the dinner to Ambassador
Gerard and approved the text of the
speech delivered at the dinner, and
then astounded the president and the
ambassador 18th the submarine note.

After all these acts, he concluded, DR..

customary course and attempted to
unload the entire responsibility on the
former German ambassador at Wash

GERMANY TO RESPECT
FLAG OF THE PAPACY

Washington, July 16.-When Arch
bishop Benaventura Cerretti sails
shortly from an American port on an
Italian liner for Rome to become as
sistant papal secretary of state, the
ship will fly the papal flag, under an
arrangement by which Germany has
promised immunity from submarine
attack. Ambassador Riano of Spain
obtained the promise. The arch
bishop until recently was apostolic
delegate to New South Wales, and
for ten years was auditor of the dele
cation here.

Again the Teutonic allies have suf-
fered reverses in the loss to the Rus
slams of a part of the village of LODI
2iany in the Lomnica river region of
Galicia in the repulse of an attack
OH the Russians northeast of kaluscz
and in the Champagne region of
France, where the French drove
them from positions they had re-
captured, inflicting heavy casualties
on them.
From Riga on the Baltic sea, to the
Rumanian frontier, the Russians and
Austro-Germans are engaged in bat
tie, but except in Galicia, where the
Russians continue to develop their ad-
vantage or hold thrusts of the Teu-
tons, little has yet become known
concerning the operations.
Heavy Losses Inflicted.
Not alone have the Russians in
their drive in Galicia made consider
able gains of terrain, but their cap
lures of men, guns and material have
been enormous. From July ] to July
13, according to q Russian officia!
communication, 36,643 officers and
men of the Teutonic allied armies
have been made prisoners by General
Brussioff's forces, and ninety three

and ninety-one guns OF other descrip-
tons have been taken.
French Are Successful.
The Germans in Champagne have
again attempted to recapture posi-
tons taken from them recently near
Mont Haut and the Teton. They were
entirely repulsed near the Teton, suf-
fering heavy casualties. On Mont
Haut their efforts were momentarily
successful, but according to the
French war office, counter-attacks
launched by the French succeeded in
the return to General Petain's forces
of all the German gains.
Considerable fighting has taken

Germans on the northern front in
France and Belgium, but apparently
the infantry attacks are still in the
nature of raiding enterprises, al
though Berlin records the repulse of
British attempts to recapture posi-
tions of Lombaertzyde in Belgium,
and the infliction of heavy losses.
Italians Are Active.
The probable recommence of heavy
fighting along the Austro- Italian
front seems apparent from the latest
official communication from Rome.
Heavy bombardments have been be-
gun along the entire front with the
Italian gunners doing effective work
in destroying enemy positions at va
rious points.
Comparative calm still prevails on
the Macedonian front, although in
the Vardar sector the Teutonic allies
have endeavored to carry out raids
with strong forces. These were all
repulsed by the French fire.

Flat River, Mo-, July 16.-Danger
of a renewal of race rioting in the
lead belt of southeastern Missouri di-
minished today as a result of the
firm attitude of the national guard

Adams in swearing in twelve deputies.
About half the mines in the Flat

day but worked short handed as re-
suit of the exodus of the foreign-born
laborers. In other towns of the lead
belt nearly all the mines were run

expected results. The foreigners did
not leave and they armed to defend

Program for Securing Mer-

by Quarrel,
DIFFERENCES DEEPER
THAN WOODEN SHIPS
Conflicting Statements AreI
Made at Different Offices Re-
garding Status of MenaCing
Controversy,

Washington, July 16.--The govern
ment's merchant shiphuilding program
was halted today when Major General
Goethals, manager of the shipping
boards fleet corporation, postponed
his plan to requiston all steel mer-
chant ships under construction and
to let contracts for building two gov
ernment-owned shipyards for pro-
ducing fabricated steel ships.
At General Goethals' office it was
said the postponement was due to a
request by Chairman Denman of the
shipping board for a short delay, to
give the board time to go over the
program. This was denied at the
shipping board, although the state
ment was made that General Goe-
thals had been asked to supply addi-
tional information concerning his
plans.
Direct Issue Raised.
Today's development was regarded
as bringing to direct issue the ques-
thority in carrying out the building
program-Chairman Denman or Cen
eral Goethals. Authority to spend
ST50,000, 900 for acquiring great
merchant fleet, given to President
Wilson by congress, has been divided
in an executive order between the
si.ipptns .ua.d add its corporation,
the board being authorized to ac-
quire vessels by purchase and the
corporation to take charge of build
ing.
In announcing his program last
Friday, General Goethals apparently
assumed that as manager of the cor
poration he would be given free
hand, but Mr.. Denman, in a state
ment tonight, assumes responsibility
for the shipping board, whose mem
bers are directors and stockholders of
the corporation.
Differences Go Deep.
Officials who have watched the
situation develop and who have been
concerned lest differences between
Mr., Denman and General Goethals
hinder the governments shipbuiId-
ing plan at time when every vessel
that can be constructed is needed to
meet the submarine menace, de-
clared tonight that President Wilson
might be called on to settle the con-
troversy once for all. While the dis
agreement between the two men ap-
pears to be largely over the number
nf Ln
built, it is no secret among their
friends that their differences go
deeper than that.

WHOLE RUSSIAN WAR
FRONT is NOW ACTIVE

Washington, July 16.-The whole
to Rumania is reported, in official
dispatches today from Petrograd to
the Russian embassy here, to be alive
with battle. The Germans are said
to be rushing up troops from the
Italian and French fronts and to be
entirely rearranging their positions.
On the northern front near Riga,
German reinforcements are rushing up
by sea transport. On the Lemburg
front the troops are being shifted
back and forth by means of heavy
automobiles in an attempt to prevent
further advances by General Korni-
loft. On the southern front in the
Carpathians, the Austrlans are said
to be in full flight.
Cossacks Move Fast.
Although the movement of the Rus
sian infantry engaged in General
korniloff's big offensive in eastern
Calicia is being hampered by bad
weather, the Cossacks apparently
have been able to keep up their dash
ing tactics. This is indicated by a
report from Petrograd through Rome
today that the town of Dolna has
been occupied by Russian forces.
If this announcement proves ac-
curate, II means an advance of more
than thirty, miles for the Russians
since the opening of the drive south
of the Dneister a week ago. The
official reports have placed them
nearly two-thirds of this distance
from their starting point, as Kaluscz.
