BARGE CAPSIZES,
TWO MEN DROWN
Twelve Other Workers at
Newton Greek Shipyard
Saved by Rescuers
ONE BODY RECOVERED
Charles Flanagan and Charles
Danbury Unable to Swim
and Save Themselves
ONE BODY RECOVERED

Two men were drowned when rcscucrs
were within q few feet Of them and
twelve were rescued, some in semicon-
scious condition, when barge in which
they were crossing Newton Creek, cap
sized today in a strong current i'm the
center Of the stream at Camden. The
drowned men were:
CHARLES FLANAGAN, 81 Lans-
downe avenue, Camden.
CHARLES DANBURN, col Spruce
street, Camden.
Flannigan's body was recovered a
shore time after the accident, but grap-
piers are still dragging the creek for
tho body of Danbury.
The men were all employed by con-
tracting firm erecting a new wharf for
the New York Shpbuilding Company,
newton creek and Broadway, Camden
and were crossing the creek to get piling
when the barge capsized.
cries Of the men struggling in the
water were heard by watchmen and
other employees at the shipbulding plant
and a number Of them rushed to tho
creek. Several of the men in the water
were good swimmers and quickly made
their way ashore, helping some Of then
companions 10 get ashore at the sam,
dine.
Neither Flanagan or Danbury coull
swim. and after struggling for sevcra
minutes they became exhausted and
sank. Rcscuers at that time were withir
a few feet of the men. but were unable
tu reach them in time.
Several other men who We're unable

DID CONSULT HlNDE\BU re
Reichstag Peace Resolution Of July.
1917, Had His Approval, 1t Is Said

In the course Of the constant discus
sion in the German press over the value.
or uSeleEsneSS, Of the So-called peace
resolution adopted by the Rcichstag on
Iuly 10. 1917, it has frequently been
asserted by the pan-GermanS and the
auneXatiOniSts i'm general that linden
burg and l.udendorff. the twin military
stars. had not been consulted about tins
step, and, consequently, had been sighted
by the ReiChstag majority. In this con-
nection the Berlner Tageblatt said re-
Gently:
The onicial National Liberal CORE
spondence declared some time ago that
the supreme army command did not
know about the Reichstag peace reso-
luton Of July ~ before it's publication.
and also did not approve Of It. The PAN
German press naturally commented upon
this report with the greatest satisfaction.
But lies have short legs. The official
organ Of the Progressive Peoples party,
the Fresiunige Zeitung, now brands the
statement of the National Liberal Cor
respondence as word Tor word untrue
and points out that the course OF the
events was as follows:
ION July l3. 1917. the peace resolu-
ton was discussed for the first time be-
tween representatives Of the majority
parties and the men Of the supreme
army command. who had arrived in Ber-
lin the same day, in the General staff
office. Then, after Doctor MiChaelis had
become Imperial Chancellor in place OF
Bethmann Hollweg on July Is, further
discussion of the resolution was held
between the two representatives of the
Z supreme army command with the repre-
sentatves of the majority parties on
July IA in the dwelling of Secretary OF
State Hclfferch. This meeting was also
attended by the new Imperial Chan.
celor. As a result of these discussions
and the wishes voiced at them the rcso'
luton was amplincd somewhat, and only
after this was it made public. This
publication was made on July 10 by the
Wolff Telegraph Bureau
Now the Fatherland party. with al
its Pan-German and National Liberia
supporters. will have to extend its hght
beyond the ranks of the majority par
ties and the Government TO persons thai
thus far it has thought it could entirely
claim for itself"

CHINESE ON 4 CASH BASIS
Restricted Credits Have Put a Stop lC
Age.Old Customs

The beneficial effects Of restricted
credits in China since the war started
IN 1914, which have forced the Chinese
merchants to do business pretty much
on a cash basis, were particularly mo-
tceable in the unusually small number
OF failures on Chinese New Years Day.
which is the annual settlement day in
the Chinese commercial world. Accord
ing TO Consul General George l.. Andcr-
son of Hong King. banking interests in
Chlna have found that the demand for
'3ommodationS has fallen off tre-
mendously during the last three years.
Prior to the war and from time i'm
memorial this annual settlement day
mas entailed efforts of every sort on the
part OF the Chinese to raise money for
ilquidating their debts accumulated dur
hg tho year. Frequently they have had
