UNCLE SAM TO MAKE NITRATE
Out of Atmospheric Nitrogen-Water
Power Will Not BE Used-Project
To Cost About 100000.

Washington.-Secr Baker an
nounced that plants for the production
of nitrate from atmospheric nitrogen
would be constructed Immediately at
cost of about $4,000,000 and that
water power would not be used. Sites
have not been selected. Further dis
cussion by localities desiring to be con-
sidered as possible sites is closed tenn
porarily, the announcement says, while
the Site Committee of Cabinet officers
is making further engineering studies.
1t has been assumed ever since the
great nitrate project was proposed
that vast supply of water power
would be needed. Consequently sites
with water power have been supposed
to be the only ones likely to get con-
sideration Muscle Shoals, of the Ten
nessee River, was one of the places
most strongly urged during the de-
bates in Congress. Congress appro-
priated $2O,0OO,O00 for the project.

was foreshadowed, the result of the
session shows that the Reichstag's
majority is in supreme control. For

SUFFRAGiSTS ARE PARDONED
Those Who Leave Cells Are Martyrs
In Friends Eyes-Will Continue
Picketing, They Say.

Washington.-Sixte women, sent
to the workhouse for their part in the
tumultuous suffrage demonstration at
the White House, accepted pardons
from President Wilson and were re-
leased after serving two days of their
sixty-day terms. The prisoners left
the workhouse apparently without re-
greet, despite their previous declara-
lions that they desired to serve out
their time without appeal or clemency.
These assertions had led to an an
nouncement by the Department of JUS
tice pointing out that pardon need
not be accepted unless the prisoners
desired it. When the time for depar-
ture came, however, the women's only
protest was against the trials they I'M
derwent during their detention.

Copenhagen.-Dr. Georg Michaelis,
new Imperial German Chancellor, in
his address to the Reichstag, declared
his adhesion to Germany's submarine
campaign as regarding it to be law
full measure justitiably adopted and
adapted for shortening the war. DR..
Michaelis opened his speech with
hearty tribute to DR.. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg, retiring Imperial Chancellor,
whose work, he said, history would APP
preciate. The Chancellor declared the
war was forced upon unwilling Ger
many by the Russian mobilization, and
that the submarine war was also
forced upon Germany by Great Brit
aims blockade starvation war.
The faint hope that America, at the
head of the neutrals, would check
Great Britain's "illegality" was vain,
he said. Germany's final attempt to
avoid the extremity by a peace offer
failed and the submarine campaign
was adopted, added the Chancellor.
The submarines, the speaker contin-
ued, has done all and more than had
been expected, and the false prophets
who had predicted the end of the war
at definite time had done a disservice
to the fatherland.

Peace Offer Extended BY President

Washington.-The ship building
row showed evidence of important de-
velopments beneath the surface and
there were persistent reports that Ma
jor General Goethals, manager of the
Fleet Corporation, had asked Presf
dent Wilson to relieve him of his du-
ties. General Goethals declined to
discuss the reports, and at the White
House it was said President Wilson
knew nothing about them. Chairman
Denman, of the Shipping Board, de-
clared his difference with General
Goethals rapidly was clearing. De-
spite the reports there were indica-
ton that the Shipping Board and Gen.
eral Goethals were nearer together on
many points than at any time since
the disagreement arose. The sugges-
ton was made that President Wilson
may have refused to consider General
Cocktails resignation and interviewed
to settle the controversy.

RESUMED THEIR SIEGE
Right Back at White House Gate Is

Bow From Wilson.

gists resumed their siege of the Presi-

their pardons. They wish to find out
by test whether or not they again
will be arrested; if the pardons came
through a sense of justice or sense
of mercy. Now that they are out of
the workhouse, they don't desire mercy.
Mrs. Allison Turnbull Hopkins told
the President so in a sharp little note.
Just before-President and Mrs. Wilson
left the White House in an automobile
for their usual afternoon drive Mrs.
Hopkins marched to the east gate. She
bore banner with the device:
1--WE do not ask pardon
For ourselves,
But justice for
All American women"
The presidential motor car slipped
down the drive. In the rear seat were
the President and Mrs. Wilson. AS he
passed the banner he bowed. Just as
Mrs Hopkins was about to assume her
post one of the White House cars was
observed starting from the portico.
Necks were craned and Mrs. Hopkins
hurried her pace. When the car ar
rived at the gateway it was seen to
contain not the President, but a very
large and very black negro woman.
Even Mrs. Hopkins, registering" mar
tyrdom, had to struggle with a smile.
