DEBATE LIMITATION
 ARGUED IN SENATE
Republican A. p. Leased WlreJ

WASHINGTON, June 10.-Secret diplomacy versus open diplomacy was argued at length in the senate today during consideration of the rule pro- posed by Senator Underwood of Ala bama, to limit senate debate during the war, with an amendment by Sen ator Borah of Idaho, for public consid- eration of treaties.
 Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, chairman of the foreign relations com mittee, Senator Lodge of Massachu- setts, ranking republican of that com
 mittee, and Senator Knox of Pennsyl-
 vania, former secretary of state, joined which was upheld by the author and Senator Kellogg of Minnesota.
 The opponents declared that the principal evil of secret diplomacy is | secrecy concerning treaties actually
 consummated, which does not obtain
 in this country. Senator Knox said ne-
 gotiation of treaties in public is im- practical: that statements made in open discussion of treaties might prej-
 udice the nations interests.
 1 Senator Borah insisted that the peace treaty to end the world war
 must be ma.s with all the peoples of
 all the nations concerned having full
 information and giving their approval | to the terms, while Senator Kellogg 1 declared that the country could not af- | ford to go on record now in favor of
 secret diplomacy. l Senator Sherman asserted that free speech is dead as far as the admins l tration is concerned"

 WASHINGTON, June 10.-More than 100000 American soldiers have gone overseas to carry back to France the encouragement and assistance which Lafayette and Rochambeau brought to America, Secretary Baker told the French Alpine chasseurs in bidding them farewell here today at the base of the Washington monument.
 The war secretary's last an noucement some weeks ago con corning the size of the American forces abroad was that 800, 900 men had sailed for the battle front.
 "You soldiers of France" said Mr. Baker, in addressing the chas- seurs. "came to this country in or der that the people of America might see with their own eyes in your persons the kind of men who have written a new page in the record of human heroism and sue cess. Nearly all of you, am told, are battle scared veterans. You are members of an army which has never known defeat, and you are representatives of a people who would rather die than not be free.
 "You are going back to your country-stiIl, thank God, you own-and when you get there you will find that the small beginning of our army which you left there has grown into a mighty mani festati6n. When you left France, the American army was there in small representation, but now more than 100000 Americans have sailed to carry to your army and your people the encouragement and the assistance which Lafayette and Rochambeau brought to America in the early and struggling days of American freedom

 Are Captured
 By Americans
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, June 10.-(By the Associated Press.)-The United States marines attacked the Ger mans after dsybreak this morning and penetrated the German lines for about two-thirds of mile on six hundred yard front in the BeIleau wood, northwest of Cha teau Thierry. The Germans now hold only the northern fringe of the wood. The Americans cap tured two minnenwerfers which are the largest pieces yet taken by them.
 It is expected one will be sent to Washington and the other to Annapolis.
 Major Edward D. Cole, com manding the machine gun battal- ion, captured several German stragglers during the early stages of the attack. Numerous machine guns, it is believed, will be rounded up in the woods.
 The Ninth and Twenty third regiments of infantry comprising what is known as the Syracuse brigade, hold the ground on the right of the marines at the point on the front nearest Paris. This is the second time the Syracuse brigade has held the point on the line nearest the capital, the former occasion being at the offensive when the allies were still falling back and the Ninth and Twenty third went in a coulomb for a short time. The Twenty-third cap tured machine guns June 6, while supporting the attack by the marines.

EDITH HOUSES IN LEGISLATURE GO INTO ARGUMEN
Controversy Brought Up At
 Start Revived When Anti vagabond Bill Is Consid- cred As Well As Sabotage

There was a recurrence in both hous- es of the legislature yesterday of the controversy that which has been rag ing internationally between the factions over the Bisbee deportation and the ]. W. W. In the house the vehicle for the return of the fight was the anti- vagabond bill which occupied so much of the time of the house in the latter days of last week.
 Creates Substitute Bill
 On Saturday Mir. Lines offered a series of amendments which amounted 10 a substitute bill. Originally it was left to the governor to put the measure into effect. It was made applicable to men between the ages of IS and 50 Mir. Lines cut out the provision relat- ing 10 the governor and changed the age limits to between 16 and SO. Other wise the bill was shortened and made plain that it aimed only at loafers hangers on about pool rooms tramps and others constitutionally opposed to work. It is made mandatory upon the authorities of every community to en- force the measure within their various jurisdictions.
 Conseription of Labor
 But there were still some members who believed that this was conscrip- tion of labor and reference was made by members opposing the bill to the circumstances that it was directed at "our people" At a matter of fact, in inc course of the debate it had been suggested that it would force the I. W. w. to work or leave the state.
 Three Times and Out
 It was evident long before yesterday that the bill could not pass with the emergency clause attached and Mir. Lines had left that off in the substi- tdte. The clamor for the "conscrip- lion" of capital was renewed and an amendment was offered by MT. Walton intended to give the authorities the same power over property of all kinds that 1t had been designed to give over loafers and vagabonds. The amend ment provided that if it appeared that any property or capital was not em- ployed fully, the owner of it if an in- dividual; if corporation, the officers directors and stockholders; if an as- sociation. the members and officers might be cited and found guilty of committing a misdemeanor.

 AN ATLANTIC PORT, June 10.-An American transport tired five shots at g. German submarine this morning 75 miles off the Jersey coast with un- known results according to information brought here tonight by the captain of a Brazilian steamship.
 The freight ship, bound north from a South American port, sighted the submarine soon after 10 o'clock. Im- mediately full speed ahead was ord cred. and the vessel sigZagged. A few minutes later a vessel was seen in the distance, which later was identified as a United States army transport, opened fire on the submarine. Two shots were heard followed almost immediate ly by three others.
 The submarine was too far away said the South American captain, for him to tell whether any of the shots took effect. He also said that he thought the transport was too far from the submarine for the latter to try a hit with a torpedo.
