Raid Bares Identity
Of "JAccuse" Author
Swiss Police Find That He Is
Rosenmeier, a German
LAWYER and Writer

LONDON, Sept S.-The leading spirit
Of the "Freie ZeitunC," the German
republican organ published in Berne,
Switzerland, is the author Of the
famous J'Accuse," il was revealed dur
ing the recent raid by the Swiss police
OF the offices Of that paper. He is a
German lawyer, by the name of Rosen-
meier, and has filled high positions on
Berlin journals.
The cause of the raid was "A trick
employed by the editors of the "Free
Zeitung" to smugglc their paper into
Germany. They printed dummy copy
Of the notorious "Frsnkfurter Zetung"
and filed it with articles from the
"Freie Zeitung," which enabled them
TO circulate their republican propa-
ganda freely throughout Germany.
II is not known whether the German
government lodged a complaint or
whether the Swiss police were moved
70 action at the instance of the Frank
fort paper. In any case, those who run
the "Freie Zeitung" deny that they had
anything to do with the trick, and moth
ing discriminating could be found
against them at the Office, notwith-
standing the most minute search.
A Swiss journalist named Strelcher.
who. according TO Swiss law, has as
sumed responsibility for the "Freie
ZeitUng,' was called upon TO state the
names of all connected with the paper.
and especially as 10 how funds were
obtained for carrying it on. He de-
clned to 60 so, but nothing ensued as
a consequence.

Berlin Declares Fuel
Shortage Due Simply
To Lack of Workmen

BERLIN, Friday, Sept. THE prob
lem Of the uniform apportionment Of
coal for the coming winter has sug-
gested retrenchmcnts in numerous di-
rections previously thought unneces-
sary. The nations natural coal re-
sources are virtually ircXhaustblc, but
the shortage of miners has created a
situation OF acute stringency, and the
fuel problem now seems 70 be giving
greater concern than the question Of
the food supply. The mines, even IN
der war conditions, would probably
have produced sufficient to supply the
nations domestic demands, but obliga-
tory shipments to neutral countries
have MADE heavy inroads upon the nor
NAL supplies and have called for econ
omy in home consumption.
The suggestion rs now made that the
theatres cut down the number of their
weekly performances, for the purpose
Of contributing TO n nationwide effort
20 save Illuminating and heating fuel.
The Berlin playhouseS, which opened
for the fall and winter season this week
with capacity business, are protesting
against the proposed movement to
limit them 70 half their usual number
o! performances. The managers point
out that since the food situation has
forced an abandonment of the custom
of keeping open house and of enter
tanning at home, and because of the
further circumstance that the public
cafes no longer offer suitable diversion,
the theatre is the only remaining me-
dunn through which war-weary brains
may be relaxed.
The Berlin managers generally pre-
dict a record business for the fall and
winter season.

Germany Feeling
Fuel Shortages;
Many Shops Close
Industries To Be Concen-
trated Stettin Street
Lights Shut Off
Feel Hunger's Pinch
Food Problem, Not Politics
Now Chief Problem leu
tons Consider

COPENHAGEN, Sept. S.-Difficulties
with the winter supply OF fuel in Ger
many already are being felt. The era
of voluntary or compulsory selection
Of the fttest establishments for sur
yival in various branches Of trade and
industry already had opened, and bust
ness will be concentrated in these,
while the others will shut down. excep,
those supplying heat and light. Butch
ers favor keeping their places open late
two afternoons a week, otherwise TO
close with the sun. The jewellers plan
to keep open only on those days when
artificial light is unnecessary, which,
during the North German winter, are
very few. The city Of Stettin already
has suspended street lighting entirely
on account of the lack OF coal.
The German press and public are for
the moment far more keenly interested
in problems Of fuel and food than in
politics. Discussion Of questions OF
constitutional reform, except for angry
orders to President Wilson TO keep out
of German affairs, has practically dis
hpDcdTcu from NtIIldu newspaper
since the Reichstag committee went
home, and the problem of the potato Is
now the topic of the day. Farmers are
proclaiming on abandonment OF the
compulsory administration Of the crop
and Of maximum prices and the return
to the system of commercial supply
and demand as sole psnacea to insure
the necessary supply for human con-
sumption.
Urbantes, on the contrary, maintain
that unless the government persists in
its determination to seize all potatoes
the profitable pig and steer will get
most of them, because in no year dur
ing the war has there been such an in
centive to use potatoes for fodder as in
this year of the very unfavorable fod-
der harvest, and humans would get po-
tatoes only at prices impossible for tho
poor.
"Vorwaerts' demands An immediate
increase in the potato ration to ten
pounds weekly at a reduction in the
price, and declares that it is impossible
to work and sustain life on the pro-
posed ration Of 5i9 pounds Of potatoes,
1850 grams OF bread, $50 grams OF
meat and eighty grams Of fat. "For-
waerts" points cut that this year the
scanty harvest OF oats and barley will
not permit OF a supplementary ration
Of oatmeal and grits, by which alone
the people tided over last spring.

Young u. S. Officer
Killed in Air Raid

WASHINGTON, Sept 8.-The death
Of First Lieutenant William 7. Fitz-
simmons, Medical Corps, L. :. A., killed
Thursday when German aviators
bombed hospitals behind the lines in
France, was announced in a dispatch
received BY the War Department to-
night from the military attache of the
American Embassy at London.
II was the first news the department
had received about the attack upon the
hospitals. No mention was made in the
message of other Americans reported
killed in press cables.
Lieutenant Fitszimmons Joined the
army medical forces at Kansas City,
his home, last May, and recently was
attached to tho British forces. He was
just twenty years old and a graduate

before entering the army he had re-
turned home after spending a year
doing hospital work in France.
London dispatches say that eyewit-
nesscs and visitors to the scene Of the
American hospital units which German
airmen bombed declare positively that
there is every evidence that the attack
was deliberate. Enemy aviators had
many times flown over the hospitals IN
the daytime.

Reno had been reported dead, follow
ing All attack upon his machine by a
German pilot last Tuesday, and as a
result Of which his machine was forced
TO make a hurried landing.
What actually happened was IHIs !.
Reno went with four other pilots OF
the same section on scouting eXpedl-
ton. He became separated from the
others because OF some slight trouble
in starting his machine. Consequently,
when he finally got over the German
lines he was alone. When over Fort

Germans attacked him. A shot pierced
his gas tank and his emergency
tank was also damaged He vo!planed
toward his own lines and managed just
TO make them. Unfortunately, he nit a
clump Of trees and lost Roadway.
He hit the ground With such force
that his machine was wrecked and he
was much shaken up. .,
Reno is now in Paris, where he will
undergo a slight operation made recez-
sary by the fall, after which he vii!

Three Big British
Vessels orpedoed
Two We're Under Convoy {;
Survivors Land at At
lantic Port

AN ATLANTIC PORT, Sept. s.
News of the destruction of the 1892
ton British steamship Turakina by a
torpedo from a German submarine on
August Is were brought here to-day
by several members OF her crew, who
arrived on an American passenger ship
from Great Britain. The Turakna had
just landed at British port a detach-
ment of 200 New Zealand troops and
was on her way 20 New York to take
a cargo of oil.
According to Charles West, refriger-
ator engineer of the ship, three of the
crew lost their lives from the explo-
sion Of the torpedo. The others, sew
enty-two in all, escaped in lifeboats
and were picked up eight hours later
By a British destroyer. The attack oc-
Cured about 100 miles out, and al
though the Turakina was armed, there
was no chance TO use the gurs as the
U-boat did not show itself. The yes
sci was owned by the New Zealand
Shipping Company, ard was built IN
1902 at Newcastle, England.
The British steamship Delphic, a yes
sci of S,273 tons gross register one of
the White Star Line feet has been sunk
by a German submarine, according to
word received here to-day in shipping
circles. The sinking occurred August
10, the advice stated, some distance off
the Irish coast and while the vessel
was under armed CONVOY. The crew
were all saved.
Advices from the same source also
reported that the British steamship
Middlesex, formerly known as the
knight Bachelor, vessel of 1894 gross
tons, likewise under convoy, had been
sunk about the time as was the Delphic.
The Middlesex was built in 1871 at
