INACTIVITY OF U-BOATS
VIEWED WITH DISTRUST
London Does Not Credit Claim That
Germany Has Abandoned I'm
dersea Warfare.

LONDON, Monday, october 2S.-Re-
ports of German submarines being
recalled to home ports, coupled with
comparative inactivity on the part of
the U-boats, are being discussed by
admiralty officers here. 1t is not be-
lieved that Germany has abandoned
her submarine warfare. The view Of
ficially expressed is that Germany, in
checking the operations of sub
marines. hopes to lend weight to the
evidently inspired reports She is with
drawing them. It is possible Ger
many expectssto create a better feel
ing in America by this procedure
and doubtless plans to bolster the
waning morale of the submarine
crews by demanding less of them.
At the admiralty it is believed that
the submersibles will be withdrawn
temporarily, the men will be given
leaves and the boats will be repaired
preparatory to the last great effort
on the part of Germany.
One admiralty officer says:
eff the war continues you may ex-
pect the submarine menace to be as
great, if not greater, by January than
any with which we have yet had to
deal"
The white flags reported by crews
of vessels arriving yesterday at Stav-
anger as having been at the mast
heads of several German submarines
passing Karmo Island last Saturday
doubtless were mistaken for the Ger
man battle flag, which is white with
a black eagle in the corner. At the
British admiralty today it was
thought the U-boats sighted probably
were returning to their bases in view
of the apparent German policy of
submarine inactivity.

Startling Disclosures Of Pro-

NEW YORK, October 29.-Startling
disclosures regarding the alleged nego-

premier Of France. and Count Won
Luxburg, former German minister to
Argentina, intended to re-establish
Caillaux in power inParis in 1915 and
bring about a separate peace with
Germany, have been made to Deputy
State Attorney General Becker by
Count James Minotto, an interned
enemy alien, the state official an
pounced.
The deposition of Minotto, who is a
son-in-law of Louis Swift of Chicago.
has been forwarded to the French
ambassador at Washington, Mr.. Beck
er said, and a summary of it has been
cab1ed to France for use in the trial
of Cai1laux for high treason, which
opens today. The full text also is on
it's way to Paris by fast steamship.
Minotto Talked Freely.
Minotto was brought here last week
from Fort Oglethorp. Ga, by special
agents of the Department of Justice
acting upon the request of the deputy
attorney general, who was commits
stoned by the French government to
investigate various phases of German
intrigue in this country against
France. He talked freely, Mr.. Becker
said, and gave information which, the
official declared, would be Important
in the prosecution of Caillaux.
Minotto, who comes of an old Ital-
ian family, but who was born in Ber-
lin, went to Buenos Aires in 1915 and
took part in extended conferences be-
tween Caillaux, then on a special mis-
sion to Argentina for France, and
Luxburg, according to Minotto's sworn
statement. The count, Mr.. Becker
said, was reluctant at first to reveal
his knowledge of the alleged Call
laux conspiracy. but finally confessed
his entire connection with the Buenos
Aires negotiations. The details of his
testimony, the official said, would not
be made public until they haze been
offered in evidence in the Caillaux
trial.

FRIDAY, AUGUST, %, 1918.
FOR REPRESENTATIVE.

Who will Brattleboro choose to repre-
sent it in the next legislature?
That is a question to which a few
persons have been giving consideration
during the past few days by reason of
the approach of the time when nomina-
tions must be filed if they are to APP
pear on the primary ballots BY far
the great majority have given the mat
ter little if any thought, and it is to
their credit in these times that they
have been thinking of something besides
politics.
However, the fact remains that the
legislature is to convene next January
and that this town should be properly
represented therein. The Reformer be-
lieves that Brattleboro voters without
regard to party ought to be able to
agree upon someone fully competent to
serve at Montpelier, and having agreed,
devote their energies to more essential
tasks. At this time above all others
it seems utterly senseless to be scrap
ping among ourselves. Why not get
this matter determined at the earliest
possible moment and then get busy on
the vastly more important job of help
ing win the war;
With this end in view The Reformer
makes bold to suggest that George L.
Durham be drafted to serve another
term at the state house. It is true, of
course, that his views are not the views
of all of us, but they doubtless con-
form as nearly to those of the majority
as do the views of any individual Mr..
Durham certainly possesses the distinct
advantage of recent legislative expert
ence, and would doubtless be willing
to go on record as favoring the short
est possible legislative term. That he
would serve conscientiously there is no
more doubt than that his service would
be marked by ability and sound bust
ness judgment at a time when these
qualifications are of prime Importance.

Mrs. Ralph Smith of Vancouver, the
only woman member of the provincial
parliament of British Columbia, has
come to New York. She is terribly in
earnest about woman S work in the war.
Mrs. Smith does not approve of the mil

women, who have gone through their
years of war and suffering, look to
American women for cooperation and
strength now that we are all allied to-
gether. The American women as a
whole have responded magnifcently,
but Canadian women resent the OBJ
structionist tactics of the suffrage lead
ers, who apparently put suffrage before
the winning of the war, whose hands are
SO empty of war work that they have
