URUGUAYANS PROCEED
Mission to France, Detained BY Sub
marine, Permitted to Continue Its
Jou1ney-Nearly Cause of War.

Washington, April 25.-The Uru-
guayan mission to Franco which re-
Gently was intercepted by a German
submarine off the Canary Islands was
according to latest reports received
here, finally permitted to proceed, but
it is not known under what condi-
tons.
The mission on the Spanish steam
err Infanta Isabel de Bourbon, was
halted near the end of it's journey.
One report says the commissioners
were removed from the ships Re-
ports received here do not make clear
whether the Uruguayans actually
were taken on the submarine but do
establish that they finally were per
mitted TO proceed.
1t was hating of the mission that
caused Uruguay to call on Germany
for an explanation.
Coupled with recent reports from
London that Uruguay as we'll as Ar
gentina was preparing to enter the
war, the incident has aroused I'M
usual interest here.

HAPSBURGS IN DANGER


Alarmed at Publicity Given EN-
peror's Letter to Prince Stxtus.
Amsterdam, April 25.-The Berlin
Tageblatt prints this dispatch from
Vienna:
The members of the imperial
house of Austria met at the arch
dukes palace and decided through
him to point out to the emperor the
prejudicial consequences which the
activities of members of the house of
Bourbon de Parma residing abroad
might have for the interests Of the
house of Hapsburg-Lorraine."
The complaint Of the members OF
the imperial house evidently has ref
erence to the case Of Prince Sixtus of
Bourbon de Parma, brother Of the
Austrian empress, who was Princess
Zita of Bourbon de Parma. It was
to Prince Sixtus, an officer in the
Belgian army, that Emperor Charles
wrote his famous letter Of March 81,
1917, in which he made peace sug-
gestions for unofficial submission to
France and England and as revealed
by the text the French government
made public. alluded to Frances
claims regarding Alsace-Lorraine
which he promised to support.

New Budget Would Lop Nearly Four
Mills From City Levy-Public
Hearing October :

city taxes are going down This
terse announcement, coming hand in
hand with soaring prices on practic-
ally every commodity or essential of
the present times, proves the one ray
OF hope to the pocketbook of the ay-
erage property. owner. The city coun-
Gil proposes to lower its levy for mu-
nicipal purposes from 2412 mills, this
years assessment to approximately
II mills for next year. And then
they have the effrontry to officially
ask the citizens to register their OBJ
Jections to the new budget on Mon
day evening, October 7, the date set
for the public hearing. Not content
with Topping a three and one-half

man citizens, the members of the city
body are still twisting the hair in

lowering the levy before it is official
ly and irrevocably established
The city fathers, in the tentative
budget, to which the people are in
yited to register objections, if any
they have, estimate that a total of
$21,S21.90 must be raised by taxa
ton to take care of the expenses for
the year 1919, as against $25,410 for
the present year On an assessed
valuation of $1,05O,000, the estimat-
ed figure would require the above
stated levy of q mills. or a slhight
fraction over
The greatest slash made by the
city officials in preparing the bud
get for next year is in the item for
city engineers services, the entire
$500 for an engineers salary being
stricken.

Oh Joy! City Taxes Lowered!

Salaries of city officials to be paid
by direct taxation next year will
amount to $3.50 under the proposed
budget, as against $5430 for last
year, the engineers salary being
stricken and that of the chief of po-
lice advanced from $3.50 to $1,000.
All other salaries remain the same
but it is not improbable that the
council will decide to take care of a
part OF the city clerks salary from
the water fund, as is the case in the
salary for city treasurer. thus still
further reducing the required levy.
The item for lights is cut from
$4,000 to $@573. a number Of small
street lamps being done away with
and the item for miscellaneous and
city hall lights reduced approximate
" $500.
Five thousand dollars must be
raised by taxation for street work,
under the proposed budget, as
against $500 for this year, the labor
item being increased from $500 to
$4,000 and the material item being
reduced from $1,000 to $500.
Under miscellaneous expenses the
item for fire department expense re-
mains the same. $500, as does the
park estimate, at $500, while the
health department expense. this year
$500, is stricken entirely. Sewer ex-
penses are reduced from $1,000 to
$500, printing. and supplies from
$500 to $3.50, election expenses from
$l75 to 800, registration of voters
from 800 to $40, and miscellaneous
city expenses from $500 to $1,000.
Local improvement district expenses
are reduced from 1926 to $81S.0O,
and an office expense item of $3.50
is added. Another item of $1,000 for
a cemetery fund is also added, but
this may be stricken later.
Thus the total estimated require
ments of the current expense fund
for next year total $16,931.90, as

SEPARATOR DESTROYED
BY SMUT EXPLOSION
Fallquist Bros. Machine Burned to
Ground Following Explosion
No Insurance Carried

The separator of the Fallquist
Bros. threshing outfit was totally
destroyed by fire following a smut
explosion on the C. E. Jennings place,
four miles east of Pullman, late Fri
day afternoon. Horace Bashaw, the
separator tender, was standing on top
of the separator when the explosion
occurred and was thrown several feet
into the air, alighting in the flames.
He plunged out of the burning mass
onto wagon standing at the side OF
the separator and was rendered un-
conscious when he landed on his neck
and shoulders. Mr.. Bashaw suffered
minor burns about the face and
hands and a badly wrenched back,
but today appears to be in no danger.
The outfit was working in very
smutty wheat and was just cleaning
up the setting preparatory TO moving
when the explosion occurred. The
separator at once became mass OF
flames and all efforts to save the ma
chine we're futile, although the fire
was confined to the separator and
straw stack, no grain being burned.

Others Have Fair Prospects of
Winning Next Tuesday

When the registration books closed
for the primary election next Tues
day they contained the names of
1913 persons qualified to vote in the
four precincts OF Pullman as against

regjsurants, whose names appear on
the books, have moved away, so that
there are probably not over 1000 vot-
ers IN The city. The registration in
the country districts is reported as
light and a much smaller vote will
probably be polled in the county than
ia 1916.

no opposition at the primary election.
