DENY THEY AIDED REVOLT

Several Groups of Siberian Leaders
Have Sought Help, But All Have
Been Denied.
Ambassador Francis has made pub
lie statement from Secretary Lans-
ing denying that American consuls
aided General Semenoff, anti-Bolshe-
SKsleader in Siberia, or others who
are seeking to bring about counter
revolution in Siberia. The statement
says the American government has
received appeals from several groups
in Siberia, but has ignored them all.
Specifically, the United States refused
a request by General Semenoff for as
sistance from American engineers, and
instructed the engineers not to aid
the general or to assist in any civil
war movement.
The statement declares the friend
ly attitude of the United States to-
ward Russia has not changed.

GOVERNMENT WATCHES ALIENS
Cooperation of Citizens Appreciated.
Warning Given Against Unjust
Suspicion of Loyal Men.

Urging the cooperation of all clti-
zens in the work of the department OF
Justice, but deprecating any unjust
and unfounded direction of suspicion
Of citizens or aliens who are law abid-
ing, Attorney General Gregory In q
letter to Judge S. H. Howard, OF the
Superior Court of Georgia, outlines
The policies of the department in the
enforcement of certain war legisla-
ton.
"The department of justice" says
the attorney general, "is actively en-
gagged in the prevention and detection
Of disloyal acts and the prosecution
Of violations of the various war sta
tutes. It welcomes any information
giving definite facts of specific in
stances of such offenses, and appre-
GATES deeply the interest of the citi-
zens of the country and the aid that
they render to the department.
"Much of the information and many
of the suspicious that are commun!-
Gated to the department do not, OF
course, upon investigation by the de-
partment, disclose facts justifying any
action. Nevertheless. all such infor-
nation is investigated and wherever
the facts warrant it, the proper action
promptly follows. On the other hand
the department deprecates unjust and
unfounded criticisms or suspicion of
citizens or aliens who are lawablding
and loyal, and certainly it should no.
come about that by unwarranted sus-
ricion such persons should be caused
loss of business, loss of employment
OF other loss.
"The federal statutes Furnishing Sc
t:itious acts, malicious destruction of
property and other war crimes, and
the alien enemy laws and regulations
are being and will be rigidly and ag-
eressively enforced and the penalties
prescribed for their violation imposed
without exceptions, but no possible
good will come from any unnecessary
hardships or discrimination inficte.
by private citizens on those alien enc
mics who remain lawabiding and
loyal, or from any such hardships or
determinations unjustly inflicted up
on loyal citizens of the United States

10000 ARE IN PRISON
Protest Filed Against Brutal Treat
ment Accorded Them by White
Guards.

;. London, June IA Russian wire
less dispatch says the Central Com
mittee of Finnish Workmen has pro-
tested against the terrorism Of Fin
nish by the White Guard, stating that
10000 persons, the majority OF them
Social Democrats, have been impris-
oned and brutally treated. Of these
$4,000 are civilians.
The wholesale slaughters of civil
ians was begun by Finnish troops, as
sisted by the Germans. In one day
the dispatch says, $50 women pris-
oners were killed. Many Sisters OF
Mercy of the Sacred Guard were put
to death without trial. Field court
martials are still condemning persons
to death en- masse, although the civil
war is over. The Finnish proletariat
calls out to- the civilized world in the
name of humanity to stop this ter
rorism.

U-BOAT CUT IN TWO
British Liner Rams and Sinks SUBJ
marine Lying in Wait for U. S.
Transports.

British Liner Rams and Sinks SUBJ
marine Lying in Wait for .. S.
Transports.
A German submarine lying in wait
for transports carrying American
troops was rammed and sunk by a
large British transport off the Irish
coast during the second week in May.
The ship which sunk the submarine
is one of the largest liners known to
American and European travellers and
hit the U-boat full amidships after 4
torpedo had been fired and the trans
port was maneuvering to make way
for accompanying destroyers to drop
depth charges. 1t is possible, the
American said, that the submarine
might have been forced to the sur
face by one of the explosions, but at
any rate it came up less that so yards
in front Of the liner.
In full view of the soldiers assem-
bled On her deck, the big steamship
rammed her way into the submarine
and "cut her like a piece of cheese"
the American said.

RIOTING IN BOHEMIA
Mobs Burn Public Buildings and
Sack German Newspapers.


London, June 1.-Riots and internal
disorders of all kinds are increasing
in Bohemia. A Vienna newspaper
says that what is happening today in
Bohemia resembles the lombard and
Venetian uprisings in 1913, except
that today the empire is hampered by
her engagements in a war frors which
she does not see way to escape.
At Chozen crowds, exasperated by
police brutality, set fire to the bar
racks and to the city hall, where the
mounted police were lodged. Eight
of the officers were burned to death.
At Kolin the people pulled down the
Austrian flag and raised the Bohem-
ian flag. Public buildings have been
burned at Tabor and other towns in
Bohemia and in Olmutz, Moravia. At
Prague the Offices of the German
newspapers, the Zeitung and Neueste
Nachrichten, were sacked.
The Prague correspondent Of the
Stuttgart Neueste Nachrichten tele-
graphed to his paper that the events
of last Sunday at Prague exceeded in
gravity all the previous demonstra-
tons.
The Neue Erie Press, of Vienna, ap-
peals to all conservative elements for
the preservation of the Austrian
States, asserting that "only the ten
acity and union of those who desire
the preservation of the state can make
the monarchy survive this great
crisis
The Croatian press reports that
martial law has been proclaimed in
Bosnia, that rioting has occurred in
various towns and that the Italo-Slav
entente is daily becoming stronger.

The Fighting Dad.
BY Rufus T. Strohm.

by RuIuS /. StrOnm.
I used to think, when l thought at all,
Success was a wad Of money,
Or front-row seat in a senate hall,
Or a kings crown-ain't it funny?
But my eyes are opened now, an say,
It's the gospel truth Pm writin',
The one safe brand of success today
Is to win the war we're fghtin'.
We can save our gold, we can lay it by
Like the i1oardin's of the miser,
But we'll never spend it, you an I,
If we fail to trim the Kaiser.
Ny blood runs hot, an ! feel. it, burn,
An my temper gets to squirmin'
To think of handin' the dough earn
To a fat-faced, square-toed German.
An so I'm strivin' as best l can
To avoid such circumstances,
BY doin' my work like an honest man
An takin' no foolish chances;
For I've got youngster over there
Who counts on me as his hacker,
An since he's wilin' to do his share,
Pm derned if I'll be Stacker.
I don't give cuss for holiday
( Or the old-time union hours; H
I've sold my watch, an / work away
To the limit of my powers.
Pm the fghtin' dad of a fghtin' son,
:" An here on the job Pm stickin'
Till the things we're battlin' for are

An we've handed Bill his lickin'.
