FRENCH SENATORS
APPLAUD PERSHING
Last Days Stay of American
Commander in Paris Featured
by Reception in Senate
Chamber.

Paris, June l6.-Major General
John ]. Pershing, commander OF the
American military forces in France,
spent his third and last day in Paris
before leaving for the front in max
ing official calls, paying visit to
Marshal Joffre, with whom he had
luncheon, and visiting the senate. He
also visited the Picpus cemetery,
where he placed a wreath on the
tomb of Lafayette.
During his visit to the senate to-
day there were scenes of enthusiasm
similar to those that took place in
the Chamber of Deputies yesterday.
The senator's stood when General
Pershing appeared in the diplomatic
box, accompanied by William Graves
Sharp, the American ambassador, and
applauded him for several minutes
M. Ribot, the premier, alluded %
the presence of the distinguished
American soldier and called on For
eign Minister Viviani to address the
senate. NJ. Viviani launched into an
GRAFTON in which he described the re-
fusal of the United States to see the
ideals OF civilization, of democracy
and Of right in battle with destructive
forces without taking her part, which
he declared was great and noble
part.
The senate took a recess of halt
an hour so the members might be in
troduced to General Pershing, and
Antoine Dubost, president of the SEN
ate, escorted him through the i'm
mense lobby of the Luxembourg
palace, introducing him to the mem

JAPANESE SHIP is
SUNK BY SUBSEA
Tansan Maru, Enroute from
Boston to Manchester, De-
stroyed; Captain and
Grew Missing.

Boston, June 16.-The Japanese
steamer Tansan Maru, which left Bos-
ton May 9 for Manchester, England,
has been sunk by German subma-
rine. Cable advices to agents here
today stated that Captain Nichikawa
and the crew of twenty-seven, all Jap
anese, are believed to have been lost.
The Tansan Maru was under char
ter to Patterson, Wylde & Co. of
Boston and carried general cargo.
Ship and cargo were valued at ST.
100000. The vessel was unarmed.
Reports had been current in ship
ping circles for some days that the
Tansan Maru had been lost, but it
was not until today that the agents
received definite information.
The Tansan Maru, formerly the
British steamer Sir Charles Tenant,
registered 2,4l5 tons gross and was
built at New Castle in 1894.
Crew of Petrolite Safe.
Washington, June l6.--All the crew
and naval gunners OF the American

SPANISH THRONE
REPORTED SHAKEN
Rumors of Rebellion in King
dom of Bourbons Reach Lon.
don; Army Believed in
Control of Government.

London, June l6.-Rumors OF Sc
rious revolutionary movement il
Spain are given prominence in a sec.
ton OF the press. There has been ar
almost complete absence OF news from
the peninsula since the appointment
OF the new ministry.
Rumors OF something abnormal in
the Spanish situation have been given
prominence in the last two or three
days in a small section of the press
and today several papers print ar
ticles declaring that something i'm
portant is happening.
One suggestion is that movement
TO bring Spain into the war is ma
terializing, but the little information
available is to the effect that the crisis
is purely domestic one and largely
due to the demand for reforms by the
rank and file OF the army.
According to the Express, the
army has obtained complete domi-
nance. military committees OF de-
tense" have been established and have
tabulated a list of the reforms de-
manded by the army. The action OF
the committee, says the Express, is a
more or less vivid reflection of what
happened in Petrograd.
The Daily News reports serious in
dustrial unrest. Labor troubles are
partly explainable by the widespread
poverty to which high food prices
have brought the people.
In all the reports there are illusions
to German influences working for
their own ends. The Spanish en-
bassy in London disclaims knowledge
of anything unusual, but it is stated
that neither commercial firms or
newspapers are able to get replies TO
telegraph queries.

MANY INJURED WHEN
POLICE ATTACK MOB
Crowd of Sympathizers CLASH
With Officers When An
archists Are Locked in
Tombs Prison.

New York, June 16.-While Alex
ander Berkman and Emma Goldman.
known as anarchists, were being
locked in the Tombs prison this after
noon pending action by the federal
grand jury on a charge that the two
conspired against the selective draft,
hundreds Of their sympathizers as
sembed in the vicinity of city hall
park to protest against the state mill
itary census.
Mayor Mitchell was not in the city
hall TO receive a petition which the
women brought and the police prom
ised to hand it to him on Monday.
Women Object to Draft.
The memorial, signed "a few hun
dred representing New York women"
protested against registration by
women--as the creators of life-and
"anti-militarists opposed to the de-
struction of life"
The mayors support was solicited
i'm the repeal of this unjust and un-
constitutional law"
many WolllSi dIIu iIlOTc tIldN tWtllly
policemen were bruised during the
fighting. The crowd repeatedly
shouted: Down with the draft"
:! A squad of police resrves unable to
disperse them was forced to club the
mob. Several persons were hurt, in
cluding police sergeant, and it was
many minutes before the anti-con.
scriptionists and their sympathizers
were scattered.
Attempt at Rescue.
One of the incidents was an unsuc-
cessful attempt by men and women
to rescue from the police three
women who had beer arrested.
The police later raided the head
quarters of what they said was a Rus
sian group OF anarchists. They ar
rested thirty men and seized litera-
ture which included thousands OF

MOROCCAN WARRIOR
IN FORE OF FIGHT
Moors Bow Themselves in
Prayer, and, Singing Songs,
Rush Into the Battle
Front.

Correspondence Of The Associated Press.)
French Front May 30.--Natural
warriors like the Moroccans fount
themselves in their element fighting
beside their French comrades in tn.
fierce battles for the possession oI
the Chemin des Danes, or the Road
of the Women, dat bulwark of the
German defensive line to the north oi
Aisne to which the German com.
mander-in-chief attached so much i'm.
portance that he sacrificed thousands
OF his best troops in order to hold it
Most of the men of the Moroccan
regiments had not been under she'll
fire before when they were ordered
forward to the assault. They bowed
themselves in prayer before going
over the top, and then awaited with
stole expression the signal of their
commanding officer.
The heavy barrage fire put up by
the Germans did not dismay them.
They went forward through the par
TALLY destroyed woods covering the
slopes Of the hills leading to the Che
min des Danes without the slightest
hesitation, although they knew that
many machine guns were hidden in
the mouths of caverns on the hill
sides waiting to NOW them down. A
curtain OF French artillery fire pre-
cedcd them and caused the German
gunners to take shelter until the
Moors were almost upon them. Then.
when the gunners came out and tried
to bring their murderous weapons
into action, the Moors leaped upon
them and plied their bayonets until
all around them groups of Germans
threw up their hands and yelled
"Comrade' in token Of surrender.
Attack German Second Line.
The Moroccans dashed on and were
soon in the second German line, wave
after wave of them coming on at wide
intervals throwing grepades and u.s.
ing their rifles as they advanced.
II was an inspiring sight to see the
native sergeants, after many of their
white officers had fallen, urging their
men on. Their discipline had been
50 instilled Into them that, even un-
der the severest FIRE in the heat of
battle, these non-commissioned off,
GERS could be seen ordering their men
to keep the proper intervals of open
order.
Discipline Is Maintained.
Once over the crest of the Chemin
ies Danes, the objective of the Cd.
is was difficult to restrain tbe
lrdor OF the men, who wished TO
advance even farther.

Kaiser Wants His Qualities
Held Before the Children

Amsterdam, June l6.-The Berlin
newspaper Vorwaerts reprints a cir
cular from the Prussian minister of
education addressed to all school
teachers in Germany warning them
against "tLemy agents in our I...dst
trying to sow distrust between the
German people and their emperor"
The circular urges that all the
teachers constantly hold before the
eyes of the children the emperor's
great merits and the nations in
debtedness to him and the Hohen-
zollern family.
Vorwaerts characterizes the cir
cular as the limit of blunder."

Publication in The Bee, FRIDAY, of
United States Marshal Flynn's state
ment advising young men outside the
draft ages who may have falsihed
their ages IN order to secure positions,
to bring proof Of their birth to him
and thus avoid possible arrest, re-
suited in the arrival at his office, early
Saturday morning, OF two young
men. They were armed with their
birth certificates and stated that thew
had stretched their ages a little in
order to obtain positions. The mar
shal made record Of the facts and il
any complaint is made against these
young men for not registering they
VIII avoid arrest.
Evidence on File.
The marshal has big envelope
now, marked Birth Certificates" In
it he keeps evidence of these cases.
He has affidavits also on file, proving
ages OF others. One man sent in a
long affidavit, statinr that he had
lived for twenty years, within sixty
yards" of certain young man and
therefore knows he is less than q
years old.
Lawrence Meredith and LLOYD
Tomilson were arrested at Norfolk,
charged with avoiding the draft reg
istration. They were committed to
jail.
Nebraska's splendid patriotic show
ing in the registration is very crafty
ing to Marshal Flynn. There will Be
some other arrests, naturally, but,
with ten days passed since registra.
tion day and with only twenty arrests
and nearly all of those discharged as
outside the law, Nebraska is a model
OF patriotism. %,
