 RITTER RESTORED
(Tacoma Rally News)

Restored to the rank of sergeant after being reduced from regimental sergeant major to that of private while confined in the guard house awaiting trial as suspected spy, Thomas Hell muth Ritter is now, on duty with the 166th depot brigade in Camp Lewis.
 Ritter's arrest, last November while on duty as regimental sergeant at di- vision headquarters, and the sensa- tional charge made against him that, as the grandson of the quartermaster general of the 9th German army corps and S spy in the service of Germany ne had been instrumental in the wreck of 3 troop train in Minnesota and the theft of valuable papers, created a sensation in military circles. In Guardhouse
 He was held in the guardhouse at Camp Lewis for number of months and later brought to Tacoma and con fined in the Pierce County jail. Due to his failing health, the result of tn , close confinement there he was taken back to camp and held in the guard house of the 166th depot brigade until May of this year, when he was releas- ed.
 Mai Gen. Greene refused to permit the publication of the fact that Ritter had been released and restored to duty as a private in the depot brigade although Ritter asked that this fact be given the same publicity as his arrest
 He was promoted to the rank of ser geant in the depot brigade Friday. Knowing that. born in Germany, he cannot serve overseas, he was lately made application to be sent to the Philippines, where he hopes to regain the rank lost by him during his con finement, the highest that an enlisted man can win.

hhEX5CANS START TROUBLE AT THE
 LORING CANNERY
Asst. Dist. Attorney Ragan Brings Nine to Town To
 Answer Charges

Word of trouble at the Loring can nery, with the Mexican crew, was broI tc Asst. District Attorney Ragan yes terday morning, who immediately left for the scene of the trouble and pick ed up nine Of the chief miscreants and brought them to town, to- be brought before the Commissioner.
 The trouble started over a complaint against tue foreman whom the Mexi- cans demanded be discharged, This was done, but the matter was not set ted A dispute arose again, and one of the Maxicans threw a can at anoth- CT white employee, cutting large gash in his neck. The riot then start ed, the MeXicans cutting loose and re- men continued to work, but the MeXi- cans could not see il that way and began throwing things at them, till Asst. District Attorney Ragan arrived on the scene and nabbed the malcon- tents.
 The cannery which was running four full lines at the time of the trouble stepped with four full scow loads of fish waiting to be put up and one in the fish house, and the iron chink loaded up to the cans. Before leav- ing for town, MT. Ragan waited until the cannery had been started up again about four o'clock yestegday after noon, shorthanded but in peace.
 The Mexicans will not be arraigned for several days, MT. Ragan said to- day, in order to give a chance to the chief witnesses to assist the cannery dispose of their huge number of fish which would spoil if left to stand very long. Charges of stabbing, wounding and disturbing the peace, will be pre- ferred against the men who are now located in the federal jail.

ORDER ON THE USE OF RIFLES BY HOME
 GUARDS MODIFIED

The War Department authorizes the following:
 Upon recommendation of the Ord.
 nance Department the order of The Adjutant General, "that the quota of
 arms for each State would be first issued to National Guard units, and any remaining surplus to Home Guard organizations has been modified. In it's changed form the order will permit the issue of rifles for use of Home Guard organization when such
 rifles are not required for National
 Guard units already organized. This would be done pending the organiza- sion Of such National Guard units, and
 upon agreement of the governor Of the State, in each case, to transfer the rifles to the National Guard units
 when needed for that purpose. Under the old order Home Guard units al ready organized could not have the ;se Of any rifles. issued by, the National Government until all needs of the National Guard of the State had first
 been met, even though the National Guard units were not organized. It must be understood, however, that it is impossible at this time to say when any rifles will be available sor the use of Home Guards under this change. This is due to the fact that the departmen: must first deter
 mine how much of he available rifles will be needed for future draft quotas
 and how much can be. spared from the supply held in reserve to allow for
 any fluctuations in the production of
 new rifles. Steps to determine tn SC
 questions will be taken.
