RUSSIANS IN SEATTLE
Stand BY GERMANY
Want Only Pro German
SOyiets Recognized by
This Country

Seattle, Wash, July 9.--Local Rus
slams, claiming to be the "soviet Of
Russian workers Of Seattle have tele-
graphed President Wilson urging
against military Intervention and de-
claring such action would be capitaliz-
ed by German influences to array the
masses against the United States.
The message follows:
"The soviet of Russian workers of
Seattle, consisting of Russian, Finnish,
Lettish, Lithuanians and Ethonian or
ganizations, ct al, declare this to be the
most critical moment for the United
States to consider military Intervention
in Russia for the reason that the Ger
man influence upon the discontented
masses in Russia might serve as dis
advantage toward the interest Of the
allies, particularly to the United States
of America.
AS Russians, and knowing the SEN
timent of the revolutionary movements
in Russia; which is no doubt rccog-
nized as the only power in Russia, we
kindly urge the American government
to recognize the soviets Of Russia We
do this because Of our desire of main
tanning the friendly relationship be-
tween the people of our two countries.
Regardless of their interior revolution
ary motives, and in this way only will
Russia in the very near future gladly
and unitedly resist the German autoc-
racy by powerful organized force.
We also desire to offer our coop
Grafton in all such activities, and we
trust that the sovicts that are existing
in practically all cities of America will
lend their support. Therefore, your ex.
cellency, we hope that you will weigh
and consider our message in the same
spirit in which it is sent, and we fur
ther hope that you will lend us your as
sistancc in avoiding counter revolution
ary propaganda through the press of
this country, assuring you much better
results and immediate cooperation from
the people of Russia"

DR.. EDWARD RUNELY
BOUGHT NEWSPAPER
WITH GERMAN FUNDS
Radical PrO-German Evening
Mail Controlled by Kaiser's
/. American Agents

New York, July 9. - DR.. Edward
Rumcly, publisher of the New York
evening Mail, was arraigned before
United States Commissioner Hitchcock
today on charge of perjury. His bail
was reduced from 100000 to $4,000,
which he hoped to furnish.
1t Is alleged that Rdmely in report
to the alien property custodian swore
the Mail was owned by Americans and
that 1t was really owned by the Ger
man government, which gave Rumely
the money to purchase it from the Mail
and Express company in June, 1915,
United States District Attorney Har-
per asserted in court today that gov
ernment evidence would show Rumely
not only received money from Germany
for the Mail but for other purposes
also.
The preliminary hearing will be
July 23.
DR.. Rumely held hasty consulta-
tion with his attorney, Frederick j.
Powell after he arrived in court. He
stated that he had not had an oppor
tunity to confer with his counsel.
Harper after having first requested
bail in the sum Of $4,000, reduced
his figures when told that DR.. Rumely
in spite of the fact that he has handled
large sums OF money many times, would
not be abe to furnish so large a bond
In asking the larger sum, he recalled
the case of Jeremiah O'Leary. who
fled with bond CT $2500 in the hands
Of the government DR.. Rumely's sit
uation, he said, was practically the
same so far as the government was
concerned and no chances should be
taken with him.
DR.. Rumely remained silent while
the proceedings were in progress, chang
ing his expression only TO smile at
times.
A Mitchell Palmer, alien property
custodian, declared DR.. Rumely told
him the money with which the Mail
was purchased before this country en-
tered the war was obtained from Her
mann Sielcken, a naturalized German.
The government alleges the money was
obtained from Count Won Berntsorff,

With the British Armies in France,
July 9.-The next German blow, be-
ieved to be a matter of days is ex-
pected ITO be the last Hindenburg will
be able to deliver, judging from the
increasing slowness of his past efforts.
But nobody out here doubts that it
will be the hardest he is capable Of,

Further extension Of the battle to the

The Italians appear to be pushing
forward at great speed and the italian

It is known that half million Ital

General Angelic, a veteran of the

Since the Italian forces constructed
military roads over the mountains from

The common practice Of setting
corncribs on posts with inverted pans
at the top often fails to exclude rats,
because the posts are not high enough
to place the lower cracks Of the struc-
ture beyond reach of the animals. As
rats are excellent jumpers, the posts
should be tall enough to prevent the
animals from obtaining foothOld at
any place within three feet Of the
ground. A crib built 10 this way,
however, is not very satisfactory.
For rat-proof crib a well-drained
site should be chosen. The outer
walls, laid In cement, should be sunk
about 20 inches into the ground. The
