BRITISH LINER |S SUNK BY U-B0ATS
Republican A. p. Leased WireI

BELFAST, Ireland, March (Satur- day).-The British liner Bulgarian has been torpedoed off the Irish coast. There were 61O persons aboard, nearly 800 of whom have been landed at Irish ports. The Bulgarian was struck by four torpedoes.
 The Allan liner Bulgarian was a ves- sel of 17.515 tons gross, 56S feet long and 70 feet of beam. She was built in Glasgow in 1914.
 There are no published records of the recent movements of the Bulgarian which for some time has been in the service of the British government. The last report given out concerning the liner was in April 1916 when she sailed from Halifax for England with Canadian troops.
 A most unusual circumstance in con- nection with the sinking of the Cal garian is the fact that she was struck by four torpedoes. So far as pub lished reports have shown, in no pre- vious case has a merchantmen been subjected to such a heavy attack by submarines. Evidently the Germans concentrated U-boats to ensure the sinking of the liner.

Republican A. P. Leased Wirel

CHICAGO, March 6.-Attorneys Carl Meyer and James G. Condon to- day presented the views of the packers on the six questions being arbitrated before Federal Judge Sam uel Alschuler in the wage dispute.
 The entire day was devoted to ar- guments of the packers lawyers. To- morrow Attorney Frank P. Walsh, representing the employees, will de- liver his closing argument, after which Judge Alschuler will take the case under consideration.
 Counsel for the packers opposed the adoption of either the actual or basic eight hour day. They argued that the actual eight hour day would limit production during the war and that the basic eight hour day with the necessary overtime. is imprac- ticable without reconstructing the plants. They insisted that at pres ent men and women doing the same class of work in the packing plants receive the same pay.
 The only other demand of the men to which they took exception was the request for an increase in wages of $1 a day.

 The prisoner declined to comment on the case, but his counsel talked freely, asserting that his arrest was due to political antagonism. The French ministry, they said, looked with disfavor on Goldsoll's close affiliations with Albert Thomas, former minister of munitions, and that Thomas was the real objective of the prosecution.

 The Pravda comments in similar vein. The Novaia Zhizn, organ Of Maxim Gorky, says it does not believe German imperialism will be so foolish as to give the Bolsheviki an oppor- tunity to re-organize. It asserts that the respite of which the Bolsheviki are talking will last only until von Kuehl- mann German foreign minister) be- comes the friend of Lloyd George.

When today's cases before the court
were assigned on the hearing docket,
the Topeka case took a place at the
foot of the days calendar. Should
the case not be reached today, it may
be presented Saturday morning fol-
lowing the review of March opinions
by the court which meets in cham
bers. An early decision will probably
be rendered in the case.
One of the cases to be handed
down Saturday will probably be the
court opinion as to the constitution
ality of the state white slave act. The
case came to the supreme court from
Montgomery county. Several phases
of the case may have a bearing on
the action involving the right of the
city to send diseased and immoral

AGAINST IMPROVEMENT
Woman Files Protest Against Resur-
facing South Topeka Avenue.

Laura d. Root, wife of Hiram Root,
attorney. has filed a protest against
the resurfacing of the Topeka avenue
brick paving from Fourteenth street
to Euclid avenue. The original petit
ton for the resurfacing was allowed
January % of this year. Thursday
was the last day in which protests
could be filed against any paving
projects contemplated for the current
year. Mrs. Root is the owner of four
lots on Topeka avenue affected by the
paving grant
The ten-year period allowed for the
paying of the cost of the brick paving
now on the south section of Topeka
avenue has recently expired 1t is es-
tmated that the resurfacing process
with the advanced price of materials
and labor, will cost almost as much
as the original brick paving ten years
ago.
The petition for the resurfacing
contained the signatures of property
owners affected by the cost of the ar
rangement, representing a large pro-
