Unconscious Saviors of the Allies?

The great mistake of the German government,
writes Won Trpitz, was in following course of
weakness in carrying through its submarine
policy.
Thus, after the Lustania was torpedoed, the
imperial government should have boldly declared
the legality of the act, and as bravely asserted
it's intention tokeep on with the ruthless saugh-
ter of non-combatants It's course in seeming to
yield consideration to President Wilson's protests
was one of weakness and poltoonery, the admiral
assures u.s.
Now clearly, according to Won Tirpitz, if Ger
many had always insisted upon its right to spill
innocent blood over all the seven seas, the war
might have resulted differently, because the
United States would so have admired and res
pected the manly boldness of undaunted German
ruthlessness that it would never have entered
the conflict! How preposterous!
We sometimes wonder why an all-wise Diety
ever permitted terrorsts like Won Tirpitz to live
in this world, and to attain places of power.
There must be deep-lying reason, however, to
justify the part such men have in the great gen.
eral scheme.
Let us suppose that the Germans had passed
through Belgium without committing any afro
cities Let us assume that they had never intro
duced poison gas, resorted to the submarine.
Their armies would have been just as successful.
Then let us recall the collapse of Russia, and re-
member what would have happened had no bar
barities called the United States into the war.
The ravishers of Belgium, and the slayers of
the innocents may have been the unconscious and
indirect saviors of France and England after all

Rome.-Parliamen was dissolved.
Elections will held Nov. 16, and par.
lament will reassemble Dec. l.
Debate in the Chamber of Deputies
was interrupted by freefor-all fight.
which lasted ten minutes, and in which
about 100 deputies participated. The
opinion is expressed in some quarters
that the cabinet, as a result OF the
riotous incident, may decide to resign
rather than plunge the country into a
struggle during the general election.
1t is asserted the fight in the chamber
indicates what will occur in the coun-
try.
The correct figures for the vote OF
confidence given the cabinet was 20S
to las, instead of 20S to 140, as at
first reported.
In consequence Of the fight in the
chamber several challenges to fight
duels were announced between depu-
ties and between DEPUTIES and Jour
nalists.
A prolonged heated discussion pre-
coded the riotous scene. The members
of the parliamentary league insisted
upon asking the government whether
it intended to discuss the treaties be-
fore adjournment Premier Nitti an
swered that he would first have a
vote Of confidence and then whatever
cabinet should be in power would de-
eide what should be done. Thereupon
of the parliamentary league
invaded the ministers bench, shout

A party of socialists then rushed
rom their seats and faced their ad-
1ersaries, the group soon engaging

benches, returned to his place

ubsided. He was greeted with ap-
llause.
All the members of the Chamber or

PRESIDENT IS ILL
TOUR HAS ENDED
A5ANooNs SPEAKING TRIP AND
RETURNS TO WASHINGTON
TO SEEK REST.
ON ADVICE OF PHYSICIAN
Indigestion and Slight Cold, Coupled
With strenuousness of Trip, Mako
Necessary Cancellation of
All Engagements.

Kansas City, Mo.-President Wilson
passed through this city on his way tc
Washington, having abandoned his tour
I and cancelled all speaking engage
ments on advice Of his physician. He
is suffering from nervous exhaustion
and intestinal disorder. His condition
was such that Admiral Cary T. Gray.
son his personal physician, ordered his
immediate return to Washington and
the cancellation of the remaining en-.
gagements in his nationwide tour on
behalf of the peace treaty and the
league of nations covenant.
The president has been on the verge
of a serious sickness for the past
week. The strain of the trip sapped
at his reserve strength and made in
roads to the extent that tonight he is
a weak man. A bulletin on his condi-
ton was issued by DR.. Grayson, and is
as follows:
president Wilson's condition is due
to overwork. The trouble dates back
to an attack of influenza last April in
Paris. from which he has never en-
tirely recovered. The presidents &C
tiVities on this trip have oxertaxed his
strength and he is suffering from ner-
Vous exhaustion. His condition is not
alarming, but 1t will be necessary for
his recovery that he have a rest and
quiet for considerable time"
Joseph P. Tumulty, secretary to the
president, also issued the following
statement.
Upon the advice of Rear Admiral
Grayson, the presidents physician, 1t
has become necessary to cancel all
the presidents engagements for the
future"
Unless the president takes a decided
turn toward the better he will be I'M
able to go to New York to welcome
the king and queen of Belgium to the

at the forthcoming industrial confer
ence in Washington between capital

RELIEF FOR COAL
CAR SHORTAGE
OFFICIAL OF RAILROAD ADMINS.
TRATIoN HAS CONFERENCE
WITH A COMMITTEE.
AGREE ON A DEFINITE PLAN
louisville and Nashville Railroad Will
Receive $50 Cars Daily From
Other Roads to Relieve
Present Shortage.

Westinghouse the result OF the
conference participated in by A. G..
Guthheim, head of the car service sec
tion of the railroad administration, a
committee of nine representing the
coal operators of Tennessee and Ken
lucky and senators form six southern
states, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia,
Florida and North and South Carolina,
and by Mr.. Gutheim and w. L. Ma
pother of the, Louisville & Nashville
railroad, the railroad administration of.
ficial assured the senator's and the rep.
resentatives of the coal operators that
he and Mr.. Mapothe, had arrived at
plan, which, they believe, promises i'm.
mediate and substantial relief from the
acute shortage Of cars on the Louis
Vile & Nashville railroad, which has
threatened to result in a coal famine
throughout the coming south during
the coming winter. The orders to
carry out this plan were put into eff.
feet by the railroad administration.
The plan agreed upon for relieving
the coal car shortage in Kentucky and
Tennessee provides that $50 cars from
roads in the eastern region and 270
cars form other roads in the southern
region shall be turned over to the
Louisville & Nashville railroad by the
administration daily during ten days,
this not to include cars returned to
the l.. & N, for other cars taken from
1t. This will bring $500 additional coal
cars to the L. & N road and Mr.. Guth.
helm assured the senator's and coal OPP
orators that the railroad administra-
tion will do everything possible to
equalize the distribution of the coal
car supply from now on.
The coal operators decided to ac-
cept for trial the arrangements made
by Mr. Guthheim and Mr.. Mapother,
but insisted that beside the remedy of
the alleged discrimination against
them, they shoule receive the differ
ence between the percentage of cars
which the Kentucky and Tennessee
fields have received during the last
esveral months and the much higher
percentage of cars received in the
other coal fields during that period.

On Light Pole.

Omaha, Neb.-Mayor Ed p. Smith
victim of two attempts at lynching
Sunday afternoon, lies in hospital in
a serious condition as a result of in.
juries received at the hands of a mob,
which later hanged William Brown, a
negro, to light pole. 1t had been
stated that the mayor was killed by
the mob.
The mayor had gone to the court
house and held a consultation with
Sheriff Clark. Emerging from the
courthouse, he met the mob and be-
gan to make an appeal for law and or
der Somebody shouted: Lynch him"
and member of the mob threw a rope
around his neck.
Half dozen men dragged the may
or half block and threw the loose
end OF the rope over a trolley pole.
Twice they drew the mayors body
from the ground. Each time two Do
lice officers cut the rope. Following
the second attempt these officers sue

police motor car and rushed him to a
surgeons office nearby. The mayor
was bleeding from his mouth and nose,

with the cries of the 100 or more pris-
oners on the top floor-the Jail floor
ringing in his ears. he was compelled
to surrender the prisoner.
The latter was hurried to an cleo
trio light TtAe and hanged.
The assault with which William
Brown was charged was committed
early In the week. With an escort |
crippled beyond the point Of resist |
aoce, the girl met her assailant few
blocks from home in the southeast |
part Of the city. He held the couple |
up at the point of revolver. After
robbing the young man he attacked
the young woman in his presence,
holding a revolver useless.
