HOBBY BEATS FERGUSON
Loyalty Candidate Has Big Lead in
 Texas Democratic Primary.

Dallas, Tex, July 27.-Governol William P. Hobby went far into the lead in the early returns of today's $ Democratic primary. Returns from 147 precincts which represented wide ly apart sections of the state, gave him 23,7S4 votes for the nomination for governor as against S,952 fo1 James E. Ferguson, former governor who was removed from office by i'm peachment proceedings.
 Returns came in slowly because oi the late closing of the polls, the pri- mary having. been held up by sun time rather than clock time, which made the polls close in many places as late as 8:30 o'clock.
 Carefully checked returns from Is towns gave Hobby 8,OO4 votes as against Fergusons 2,295. These same towns in 1916, gave Ferguson 3,360; Ball 3,214.
 There were contests in II of the 1S congressional districts but owing tc the length of the ballot few few congressional votes had been counted There was much interest in the Four teenth district where Congressman Slayden withdrew from the race yes terday after a letter from President Wilson had been published criticis. ing the support Slayden had given the administration. Early reports from eight of the 264 precincts in the dis trict gave Carlos Bee 365 votes and A. P. Barrett, 516.

CLINGs TO HIS U-BoATs.
German Minister OF Navy Declares
Number and Quality are
Increasing.

Amsterdam, July S.-German sub.
marines are increasing both in number
and quality, according to declara-
ton made by Vice-Admiral Won Ca
pelle, Minister of the Navy, in the de-
bate of the third reading Of the Reich
stag. He asserted that reports OF
U-boat losses have been exaggerated
by the Entente Allies.
Won Capelle's statement was made
in response to a conference by a
deputy of the Center to the assertion
of the French Under-Secretary of the
Navy that two-thirds of the German
U-boats had been sunk, while twice
the number which Germany is able to
build are also being destroyed.
"These figures are incorrect" said
Admiral Won Capelle, "as is also the
recent statement by the British MINI
ster of Marine that since January last
the number sunk exceeded new cor
struction. The facts are quite the re-
verse. All reports about U-boat losses
spread by the enemy are exaggerated
AS far as the number and quality OF
our U-boats are concerned our
weapon is increasing in strength.
