IN LIGHT CONFERENCE
Topeka Managers To Discuss Consoli-
datiOn Order.


The question of consolidation of
the electric light plants of Topeka
which was submitted to C. H. Danner,
county fuel administrator, by Emer-
son Carey, of Hutchinson, state fuel
director, has been referred to the
heads of the various electric light
plants.
Saturday Danner interviewed Com
missioner Newland and A. H. Purdy,
of the Edison company. Banner says
that the Representatives of these cleo
trio light plants are not as yet in a po-
sition to make any definite statement
as to the feasibility of consolidating
these plants in the interest Of saving
fuel consumption.
Commissioner Newland says that
before anything definite can be- done
some expert assistance must be OBJ
tanned in making estimates of just
proposition of the kind proposed by
Emerson Carey. The city plant was
carrying. when all the street lights
and the lights at the state house and
dome were going in full force. all the
burden it was capable of assuming
The addition of any further burden
is out of the question.
There is some doubt expressed
among the authorities concerned as
to whether the Edison plant would be
able to carry the whole burden.
NO definite action can be taken, &C
cordlng to Banner, until the engineers
of the various plants are able to place
pretty definite figures before a COM
mittee showing just what they are
doing, are capable of doing, and how
they could best aid the entire situa-
ton. None of the heads of the light
plants is ready as yet to make any
such statement

so that they are again formidable
barrier.
Expect Counter Blows.
There is a feeling among some Off
Gals that the enemy is very likely to
signaIize its intention to stand fast by
striking back hard at the advancing
French and British forces, or even by
an attack at some other point designed
to relieve pressure rather than to
achieve any decisive result in the way
of capturing towns. 1t is argued that
if the German high command has
made available q sufficient reserve
force by the great withdrawal to per-
NIT such operations, a limited drive,
possibly on the front held by General
Pershing's army beyond Verdun, might
well be thought advisable
On the allied side. it remains to be
seen whether Marshal Foch plans a
thanking operation on a wide front to
turn the enemy out of his new lines
and keeping him moving back, or will
continue to hit at weak spots all along
the front. Opinion here is that the
larger enterprise is the most probable
since virtually the entire American
army is available as a fresh, hard hit
ting force with which to deliver a coup
at the breaking of the German front.
There is no Goubt that many officers
here regard the days Immediately
ahead as probably the crucial period
of the whole battle of 1918.

TO GIVE HUNS NO REST
CIemenceau Says Campaign Will Go
On Thru Fail and Winter.

Paris, Sept. 10.-If the Germans are
expecting to be allowed respite from
the attack either during the autumn
or thru the winter, they are counting
without their host, says Premier
Clemenceau's newspaper, L'Homme
Libre, in commenting on the military
situation. Nevertheless, the newspa-
per expects a certain slowing up of
the fighting because of the necessity
of bringing forward the necessary in
fantry support in front of the new
positions the Germans are occupying
The regrouping of the allied
forces, however, will not be delayed,
L'Homme Libre predicts. as the move
ment of the troops is based upon an
excellent method thru which the al
lied commander-in-ch was able un-
interruptedly to retain the initiative
for a period of more than six weeks.

PAY SHOULD NOT STOP
Borah Denounces Practice of Stopping
Pay When Soldier Is Captured.

Washington. Sept. dangerous
protest was voiced in the senate Mon
day by Senator Borah of Idaho,
against the action of the government
in disseminating the payment of the
salaries of American officers captured
by the Germans.
The effect of this order, the senator
declared, is to throw the dependents of
captured officers upon the mercy of
the German government, which re-
CARDS treaty obligations and interna-
tional law as mere scraps of paper.
Under international law the German
government would be required to pay
officers it holds captive the equivalent
of the pay of an officer of the same
rank in it's own army.
The senator announced. he would
offer a resolution directing the senate
military affairs committee to ascer-
tain the facts and prepare legislation
to take care of dependents of Ameri-
cans captured.

On account of no ice in town, and
the inability to procure any, the lunch
room conducted by women of the Red
Cross Committee in the State Armory
for the benefit of service men, was
obliged to shut down on Tuesday
night 1t is impossible this warm
weather to keep edibles without ice,
and source of the Recreation Rooms
commodity and stock in trade is ice
cream. The no ice question naturally
brought about the no ice cream situ-
alton. The service men want ice
cream these hot nights when off duty,
and the Recreation Room lunch de-
partment without ice cream is a
failure.
1t is bad enough for the service
men in town on Sundays not to be able
to buy ice cream or soda water on ac-
count of the Annapolis "Blue Law,
and many of them have been heard to
complain OF this condition of affairs,
but the closing down. even for sim
gle night of the Recreation Room

to be deplored.

EXCEPTIONS ARE IN
Attorney Brady Makes Statement TO
This Effect, But Records DO
Not Show 1t

Discussing the statements that the
exceptions to testimony admitted by
the Court in the trial of John Snow
den, convicted at Towson last Janu-
airy of the murder at Annapolis one
year ago yesterday of Mrs. Lottie
May Brandon, A. t. Brady, of counsel
for the condemned negro, this morn
ing announced that the exceptions had
been filed on March 29th last, but that
no action thereon had been taken be-
cause of the illness of Judge Frank
l. Duncan, before whom the case was
tried.
Mr. Brady's statement today was
to the effect that the true cause for
the delay is the illness of Judge
Duncan.
Whatever the outcome of the ap-
parent tangle which the defense
seems to be in, it can be stated that
the prosecution, headed by States
Attorney Green, is fully determined to
take no advantage of any purely legal
technicality arising from the situa-
ton. If the courts below allow an
appeal to be filed in time for the Oc-
tober term of the Court of Appeals.
it is not at all likely that any objec-
tion will be interposed on technical
grounds by the State.

DRUG STORES
RESTRICT SALES

The war conditions of sugar and the
existing local condition regarding ice,
may compel two of the leading drug
stores with soda fountains to close
down their fountains after this week,
for a few days.
The drug stores are under the
same ban as all other .'mortals
when it comes to sugar and ice restric-
tions. Soda water without ice is not
palatable. and many want ice cream
to touch it of Both ice cream and
ice being requisites, and the ice to
make the cream inaccessible, the
soda fountains at drug stores have
been running on half supply, and will
continue so for the remainder of the
week when they will probably shut
of for a day or two in order to per-
NIT the people to get the needed ice
proportioned to them.
AT a leading drug store this week
no soda water has been sold after $50
in the evening. according to a state
ment Of the proprietor.

was a new baby, the other three had

BRING BETTER
THAN PAR BIDS
First National Bank Of New
York, Bidding With The
Mercantile Co., Get Issue
FINANCIAL OFFICERS
PLEASED AT PRICE
The Successful Bidders Offered
100.43. Others Offered AS
High AS 99,05

Maryland road bonds of the emer-
gency issue. which the last Legisla-
ture directed Governor Harrington
and the other members of the Board
of Public Works to issue, brought a
share better than par when sold to-
day at a meeting held at the Office of
State Treasurer William p, jackson.
The successful bidders were the
First National Bank of New York and
the Mercantile Trust Company OF
Baltimore bidding jointly for the
whole issue. Their bid was 100.43.
The other bidders were the National
City Company Mittendorff- Williams
and Company. the Equitable Trust
Company, and Robert Garrett. bidding
together, 099.05.
That the bonds, brought better than
par was most pleasing to the various
State financial officers. particularly
because of the vast amount of Fed
eral securities which have been alb
sorbed by the American money mar
ket in the past year or two.
Prior to the sale of the bonds, the
State was compelled to obtain the
permission of the Capital Securities
Committee at Washington for the is
sue. This Federal organization after
lengthy investigation of the need of
the bonds and the necessity for re-
pair or maintenance of roads at this
time. finally approved the issue of
$1,500,000, but only authorized the
use for work at this time of $S45, 900
1t disapproved the use at this time
of the balance of the money for the
purposes specified in the Roads Com
missions statement, and also withheld
approval of the use of any part of the
loan for maintenance purposes, until
the Commission snail have submitted
a complete budget. at which time the
question of the temporary use of part
of the loan funds for maintenance will
be passed upon definitely.
The committee, of course, approved
the issue of $1,000,O00 of bonds, to re-
place the emergency notes issued last
years, when the $1,000.000 War Loan
was authorized to be used by the State
Council of Defense.
