Carrying Food

BUENOS AYRES, Aug. 2S.-Ger'
many's reply to Argentina's note en-
bodying demands in connection with the
submarine campaign as affecting Ar
gentine shipping has been received. In
official circles it was stated that the
reply was satisfactory.
The note says that Germany, "in or
der to maintain NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. with
Argentina, is willing to modify her
blockade of enemy coasts, allowing free
dom Of the seas 10 vessels under the
Argentine flag carrying food
The note also promises the payment

The Foreign Office issued this even
ing the Following official statement:
after the delivery of the second Ar
gentine note to Berlin the German
Minister held several conferences with
the Argentine Foreign Minister, in an
attempt to solve the questions IN DIS
pute. These met with no success, be-
cause, although the Foreign Minister
was willing 10 give explanations, Ger
many insisted OH the COHuiNiOH Nho
Argentina prevent her vessels from
traversing the blockade.
The Foreign Minister explained this
insistence to the President, who re-
fused the condition as incompatible
with the spirit of Argentina's demands
which insisted upon a solution OF the
difficulty in accordance with the SOW
ereign rights of the nation.
after the refusal of the President
further to consider a solution OF the
situation based on the German condi-
ton. the German Minister requested
Berlin 70 eliminate the condition.
"Argentina's claims have been salts
fed in all their terms and without any
restrictions"

Michaelis Off
For Belgium
Chancellor Attacked by
Berlin Papers; Appoint
ment Is Called Mistake

LONDON, Aug pa dispatch 10
the Exchange Telegraph from Amster-
dam says the Imperial German Chan
cellor left Berlin to-day for Belgium.
The dispatch adds that the Chancel-
lor is expected 20 visit Brussels, and
that special measures have been taken
for mis- safety.
At Brussels, the Chancellor will have
a conference with the Governor Gem
eral. Baron Won Falkcnhausen.
Pope Benedict's peace note was the
principal subject OF discussion a. q
meeting in Berlin this afternoon, in
which Chancellor Michaelis, members
Of the German parliament and repre-
s.ntatives OF Prussia, Bavaria. Saxony
and Wurtemburg participated.
COPENHAGEN, Aug. 2S.-The posi-.
bility Of another change in Imperial
Chancellors in Germany is discussed BY
Georg Bernhard in the "Vossiscne Zei.
tung." He says it is plainly evi.
dent already that the appointment Of a
minor official like DR.. Michaelis, withou,
general political experience, was great
mistake, and that the results desired
are not apt 10 be reached quickly unde,
the leadership Of the new administra.
ton.
Parliament, he argues, must take the
matter OF internal reforms and peace
into is own hands. Herr Bernhard
still hopes that Chancellor Michseli'
will sec the error OF his ways and avoid
the necessity for another change in the
Chancellorship.

Governor J. A. A. Burnquist of Mir-
nesota telegraphed last night TO The
Tribune that he would prohibit the
holding Of the peace conference which
is scheduled 10 begin in Minneapolis
next Saturday under the auspices of
the Peoples Council OF America. His
message was in response 20 an inquiry

the forthcoming pacifst convention.
The Governor announced that he had
issued proclamation instructing the
officials of Minneapolis, Hennepin
County and the state ito use all
means TO prevent the convening Of
the pacifsts. He declared that he had
been advised that the proposed meet
ing would result in bloodshed, riot
ing and loss of life" and would have
mo other effect than aiding and abet
ting the enemies of this country"
Officials of the Peoples Council last
night were in quandary as 10 what
they would do. They talked Of appeal
ing to the Minnesota courts for an in
Junction to stay Governor Burnquist
from carrying cut his proclamation.

 VISITS VALLEY.

A passing visitor in Phoenix yester- day was E. V. Wilcox of Washington, who beais the title of 'Agriculturist in Charge of Farm Labor Investigations" On his way back to tlNh national capital for an important conference, he is talk ing a running look at labor conditions within Ar4zona, particularly those con- corning the harvesting of the food crops so badly needed by the nation and her allies. On the whole he has found them not nearly as bad as had been reported. More men would be employed on the farms if they were available, hut there has been a decided easing of the farm labor problem since the ad- vent of several thousand Mexicans brought in through a temporary sus- pension of the labor and other regulations respecting indigent immi
 grants.
 The Mexicans are preferred along the border to any other unskilled laborers. Most of them brought to Arizona and California are staying with their jobs and are doing reasonably well. though
 there have been some assertions. This is a rather serious matter, fer the Ia : borers are supposed to be available for return to Mexico when necessity here for their labor is at an end. There has been very little agitation or unrest
 among them and wages seem to- have | been fairly satisfactory to employer and | employed alike The cotton of the Salt
 River valley is being picked about as 1 fast as it ripens-tlfere being the happy i collateral feature that exposure and i late picking do little, if any, damage. 1 For 2 while. there was fear that Tex as would have keen necessity for more 1 cotton Dickers, so arrangements were

dissension or ill-feeling between the British an dthe colonials by circulating reports that the British were forcing the colonials to bear the brunt of the flghing, so they have lately been try ing to create a misunderstanding be- tween the British and the French by alleging that the French were doing nothing. leaving the bruht to the Brit ish Yesterdays victory, which is the fourth French attack this year, is a good answer.
 Of course it is true that the British have had more of the fighting to do on the western front this year than ever before But the reason is apparent. Remember that in the first months of the war we practically exhausted our little old army and we had to spend two years in creating another. With the beginning of this year, our new army was ready and we went into line with the idea of bearing the brunt and re- lieving the French of part of the bur den which they had to bear almost eX- clusively while we were getting ready. The French and English commanders understand each other thoroughly and there is no jealousy or misunderstand- ing of either side.9
