AMERICAN LABOR AGAINST FOE
Will Refuse to Participate in Confer
enees With Any of Enemy's Or
ganizations, Says Gompers.

London, Sept. 1l.-American labor
will refuse participation in conference
es of enemy's organizations, Samuel P.
Gompers, President of the American
Federation of Labor, declared in an
interview with the British Journalists
made public here today.
81 don't want to appear dognatic"
said Gompers but under the facts
you may rest assured that there will
be no recession from the position of
the American federation of labor as
taken in this war. This means the
federation will refuse participation in
the conferences with enemy represen-
tatives. The men and women of Ameri
ca are not indicative. They want
nothing but the rights of democracy to
live their own lives without being me-
naced by militarism and autocracy.
They include in this. democracy for
Germany.

GERMANy'S DOUBLE ROLE
Will Not Get Any Sympathy or Con-
sideration From the United
States Government
(By Carl D. Groat.)

Washington, Sept. 11.-Germany is
playing sinister double game of
peace and war, according to informa-
ton received here. Her peace game
is with the use of Baron Burian, Aus.
trian Foreign Minister, to put out the
"get together feelers." ...-
Her war game is to excite the Boil
shevilSi to war on the allies in the
north.
The peace game offers no prospect
of fruit whatsoever. Government
authorities agreed today that there
is no desire on the part of the Unit
ed States to listen to any proposals
from the German pawn,-Austria, =

AWE RICAN GUNS
SINK SUBMARINE
AUTHENTIC ACCOUNT OF FIGHT
OFF ATLANTIC COAST.
TWO DIRECT HITS ARE SCORED
Enemy Was Seen to Sink Following a
Terrific Explosion Aboard.--The
Battle Lasted Twenty-Five
Minutes.

washington, D. c., Sept. 11.-De.
slructlon of an enemy submarine
sept. 3, off the Atlantic coast nv
gunhre from the American steamer
frank Buck, is reported by the navy
department. The master of the steam.
er said that two shots were observed
TO hit the submarine, which sank
after terrific explosion.
The submarine, the captain said
opened fire on the steamer at a range
OF l,4OO yards. but when it found after
an interchange of three shots that II
was outranged by the Americans guns
IT tried to draw off. 1t was then that
the ship put in the two shots which
the captain believes destroyed the
enemy.
The Captains Story.
The captains narrative, as summar.
lied in the report to the department
follows:
"On September 8, at 8:35 a. m, an
enemy submarine was sighted on the
starboard bow at 1,40O yards. The sub
marine opened fire with two six.inch
guns. We answered the fire with for
ward guns. We saw the shot fall about
400 yards short, and Immediately
swung stern forward to submarine,
using after guns. Our shots were very
close to the submarine and the sub
marine shrapnel we're bursting very
near to us. some of the pieces falling
upon our deck amidships.
Frequently Changed Course.
I'VE changed the course frequently
which seemed to upset the submarines
aim and range. AS soon as the sub
marine saw our range was equal to
hers she backed away from us. Up to
that time she had been closing in on
us. ." ~
Before the submarine got out of
range our twenty-eighth shot from
the after gun apparently hit her stern.
The twenty-ninth hit Just forward of
the coming tower, near and under the
water line. The bow suddenly shot in
to the air and then settled and went
down out of sight, the stern making a
half turn toward US and then it dis
appeared.
Upon shots striking the submarine
we saw a terrific explosion and black
smoke which enveloped the submar-
inc. am positive we destroyed her as
she sank almost instantly after the
shot struck her.
Pirates Carried Two Guns.
The engagement lasted twenty
nine minutes. Some of the fragments
of the submarine fell on our decks and
we're picked up by the quartermaster
and chief gunner's mate.
THE submarine was about 800 feet
long. of the early type of German
submarines with high bow, and had
two six inch guns close to the con.
ming tower, fore and aft. She fired in
salvos, using about sixty shots alto
gether. She was camouflaged and flew
no flag
The navy department announced
that the captain OF the Buck highly
commended the efficiency and con.
duct Of the chief gunner's mate, 10.
seph Steffens, and the entire armed
guard.

.PITIABLE PLIGHT IN AUSTRIA
Crops a Failure and Bread Rations
UnpaIatabie-The One Thought
Is To End the War.

Milan, Italy, Sept. l1.-According
to the eight hundred repatriated Ital-
ians, the economic and political situa-
ton in Austria is absolutely tragic.
A professor said that the populations
one thought is to end the war as soon
as possible at any cost.
Since the battle on the Pave and
the German reserves on the western
front the hope Of winning the war
has completely vanished. The pro-
lessor also confirmed the reports OF
the political disorders in Bohemia
and the bread riots In Vienna, which
forced the government to grant con-
cessions in increasing the ration of
the bread. which however is almost
unpalatable.
The crops were failure, and
many of the crops we're consumed
before they were ripe. There were
few potatoes. This has prevented
general increase in the food ration
with the exception of bread.

FIGHTING IN ALsAcE,
Germans in Determined Attack Are
Driven Back by Yanks.
(By Frank ]. Taylor.)


With the American Armies in
France, Sept. lin sharp fighting
northwest of Colmar in Alsace the
American troops repulsed heavy
raids followed by an intense German
bombardment in which more than
two hundred mine throwers were used
against our trenches and thousands
of big caliber artillery shells were
thrown into our communication lines
and back areas.
The Germans came on with the
fame throwers- The Americans
met them and in the course OF hard
fight at close range by the use OF
grenades, bayonets and rifles the en-.
envy was driven off.
Many Dead and Wounded.
More than sixty Germans were
counted running back from the Amer.
lean trenches. They carried great
numbers of dead and wounded.
Despite the machine gun and patrol
operations the Germans this week
have been unable TO take a single
American prisoner on the Lorraine
front. Captured Germans say their
orders were to get prisoners imme,
diately or it would be necessary Ia
carry out a raid as big as regular
attack in order to secure the infor
nation wanted by the commanders Of
the German forces.
