BERLIN. March 2-Germany will not

OF the present breach
Foreign Secretary Zimmerman made this
assertion in the Reichstag in the course of
his discussion of the efforts of the Swiss
a Minister at Washington to bring the two
nations into agreement.
"Obviously our wish to come to an under
z Dtanding only can be accomplished so far
that we do not conflict with our declara tion
of barred zones which we are firmly decided
TO maintain against our enemies under all
circumstances" the Foreign Secretary de-
clared.
Secretary Zimmerman first detailed to
the Reichstag the negotiations attempted by
the Swiss Minister at Washington.
SWISS ENJOYS OFFER
I'm the affair of our negotiations with the
urited States, the underlying facts are
these" he said. "On February 2s we re-
ceived by the good offices of the Swiss Fed
eral Council telegram of the Swiss Min
lister at Washington, who, after the breaking
on of relations with the United States. rep
resents our interests there. The telegram
had the following contents If the German
Government would now show inclination to
negotiate with the United States about the
blockade then he (the Swiss Minister)
would gladly be willing to take further care
of this affair
"Al the speakers yesterday declared that
the breaking off of relations with the
United States was regrettable No doubt
II would be still more regrettable if there
would be war with the United States. Be-
tween both countries there exists the old
friendly relations There Is no political
antagonism between the countries and in
the economic domain they more or less de-
pend on each other. One could even say
that they ought TO be economic allies there
fore. II is easy to understand that the Gov
ernment took care to avoid everything
which might Intensity the conflict and cause
war with America. From the standpoint
Of these considerations we examined the
suggestion.
From the very outset we were absolutely
certain that our part In the submarine war
ought In no way TO be limited by conces-
sion Obviously our wish to come to an
understanding with America only can be ac-
complished so far that we do not conflict
with our declaration of barred zones which
we are firmly decided to maintain against
our enemies under all circumstances.
"Oniy after long consideration we decided

course of our negotiations with America
md our honest. sincere peace offer and the
/eering rebuke by our enemies. To our at
4empt our adversafies opposed their will

nut TO take the last and best weapon.
AFTER we took this decision obviously no
1aclkward step was any longer possible.

BERLIN. March 2.


Officials here expressed the hope today
that the release of four American Yarrow-
dale prisoners will at least offer proof that
Entente charges that Germany is seeking
deliberately to provoke war with the United
States are unfounded
The other Americans from the Narrow-
dale will be set at liberty when the quar-
antine period expires at the camp where
they are now detained. TIE four en- route
to Denmark were Classed as officers and
held in another camp.
There is little hope that the departure
of the Yarrowdale men will do any more
than slightly decrease the tension between
the two countries. But, officials said today,
their arrival in Denmark will at least dispel
the belief existing in some quarters in
America that a so-called ''miltarist' party
in Germany is guiding the country's des-
TIMES. Had Germany desired war with the
United States, it was pointed out, she
she would have delayed the release of the
Yarrowdale men, by one pretext or other.
until public sentiment in the United States
became more in1amed.
Now that the Laconia sinking has passed
without a declaration of war by the United
States, official circles here are awaiting the
action of the United States Congress on
President Wilson's request for authority to
arm ships. 1.-THE result Of the House vote
empowering the President to act had not
reached Berlin when this dispatch was
filed The German press almost unan-
mously agrees that the arming of American
merchantmen can mean nothing but war.

JEROME VERDE is
NOW PRODUCING

JEROME, Oct. 25.-Jerome Verde is
on a substantial producing basis, and
by the end of this week will be ship
ping fifty tons of Is to 20 per cent
ore daily to the Humboldt smelter.
Stopping has commenced just north
of the U. " Extension line, on the
1200-foot level. At the same time a
crosscut is being run across the ore
on the Maintop' raise, fifty feet above
the 1900. At last reports the crosscut
has advanced more than nine feet
from the hanging-wall, and was still
in ore averaging around 20 per cent.
A third carload of ore from the
Maintop raise was shipped to Hum
boldt Saturday. 1t is estimated that
it averaged Is per cent. The first
two cars, which contained much
waste, averaged Z to 8 per cent.
Each carload is 40 tons of ore. The
regulations of the Santa Fe forbid
heavier loading of ore cars hauled
over the Clarkdale branch.
The contract of the Extension with
the Jerome Verde calls for the hoist
ing of 25 tons of ore daily, in addition
to any material taken out in the
course of development. About 25 tons
will be stopped and the remaining fiji

teen tons will be taken from the raise,
which is development work
How long the Jerome Verde will be
able to ship carload daily is proble-
matical. Stopping is now in progress
only a few feet from Extension
ground, and it is known that the ore
plays out entirely some fifty feet
north of the raise. Explorations on the
800-foot level have shown that the
ledge does not run high in copper
there. Nevertheless, there is room for
large lenses of ore both above and
below the 1900. It is hardly likely
that the Maintop ore will put the
Jerome Verde on a dividend-paying
basis, but it can put big fund in the
company's treasury for future devel-
opment.

that with plenty of good entertain

will be more pleasant.

point, with light frosts in the morn

adding constantly to the comfort of
the men, there is no one really suffer

spice and snap to the drill work.
Tobacco and reading material from
home will be welcomed in all of the
barracks. 1t is a mile to the nearest
canteen, and when there the jam is
SO great that lots of the boys do not
care to stand around in the cold and
dust waiting for a chance to grab up
something at counter. That is one

A FAMILY
MEDICINE.
In Her Mothers Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head
ache, Malaria, ChiIIs, Etc.

Ringgold, Ca Mrs. Chas. CASTOR,
of this place, writes: 81 am user
of Thedford's Black-L@raught; in fact,
it was one of our family medicines
Also in my mothers home, when
was child. When any of us child
rem complained Of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave US
a dose Of Black-D -Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chills, or troubles OF this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg
ular until the liver acted well, and
we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without 1t,
for It certainly has saved us lots of
doctor bills. Just a dose of Black
Draught when not SO well saves q
lot of days in bed"
Thedford's Black-D -Draught has been
in use for many years In the treat
ment of stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which It
now enjoys Is proof of its merit.
II your liver is not doing its duty,
you will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms as headache, bilious
ness, constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something is done, serious
trouble may result.
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
found q valuable remedy for these
troubles. It is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels Of
impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed-

CAMP FUNSTON
BOYS IN NEED
Of HOME HELP

CAMP FUNSTON, Kan, Oct. 25.-
The men of the new national army at
Camp Funston, Kan, are rapidly
rounding into shape. Overalls and
khaki clothing are giving way to
woolen clothes and heavy overcoats,
and in the same manner the shuttle
and unevenness of civilian marching
is blending into the more military
rhythm of lone, two, three, FOUR"
"hep, hep" being consigned to the
past
Work on all buildings is nearly COM
plete, even the big barns and stables
attached to the artillery barracks are
nearly finished. 1t is also believed
here that the new heating system will
be in operation within ten days or
two weeks in some parts of the camp.
This system, by the way, is a little
out of the ordinary, the steam for it
being conducted to the various bar
racks by means of overhead pipes on
poles. winding their way about the
streets of the camp. AS a rule, such
heat-carrying pipes are placed in the
ground, but in this case the govern
ment probably figured that the cost
would be too great at Funston for the
length of time the camp will be used.
The 340th Field Artillery will be
ho mir oorir7 in q
national army. With the exception of
a few Nebraska men in it; all it's mem
bers are from Arizona. All of the
first 5 per cent and a large part of the
first 40 per cent belong to the 340th.
All of the other drafted men from

derstood that the men of the depot

units here and at the various National

ROOSEVELT BLIND IN
LEFT EYE FOR YEARS

STAMFORD, Conn.,, Oct. 26.-Col
Theodore Roosevelt has been blind in
his left eye since his retirement from
the White House, it was learned to-
day, when he received delegation
of newspapermen at a rest camp here,
where he is staying after fortnight
of training.
Il don't think many know this" he
said, "but the fact is I was having a
lively bout one day with a husky
young captain of artillery, when he
crossed me with hard right swing
and landed on my left eye. The punch
broke some of the blood vessels of
the eye and l haven't seen from it
since"
