Washington, July 2.-The protest o
the Lenine-TrOtzky government il
Russia against the reported arrest o.
its representative, Martens. in New
York was met by the State Depart
ment with a denial and a warning
that the threatened reprisals against
American citizens in Russia would
arouse overwhelming indignation in
this country.
DR.. Martens has not been arrested
Acting Secretary of State Phillips in.
forms the soviet authorities. He
claims to represent n regime at Mos
COW which this government has never
recognized and is at the same time q
German citizen, according to his own
declaration when he entered the
cOuptry in 1915. The indignities and
h%ardships to which American consuls
have been subjected in Russia are re-
viewed and the plain statement is
made that the threat of further illegal
measures against Americans is viewed
with grave concern"
The Russian note, received through
Swedish officials and cabled on June
"a by the American legation at Stock
holm, is as follows:
"The Russian government fears that
this arrest may not be an isolated
case, but forms part Of a general per-
Cnattinn Of Dtrccian cftiUnna laval IN
their peoples government, and de-
mnnds the cessation of such persecu-
tons and the Immediate release of
Mr.. Martens.
THE soviet government expects to
be accordingly informed at an early
date, and not compelled reluctantly to
take reprlsals against American citi-
ems to be found on Russian terri
tory"
In reply Secretary Phillips cabled
to Stockholm:
please inform proper Swedish au-
thorities at once as follows: The
statement %purporting to emanate from
Moscow is wholly untrue. Mr.. Mar
tens has not been arrested, nor does
this government contemplate any ac-
ton against law-abiding Russian citi-
zens in this country. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Martens claims official status
as representative of a regime at Mos
COW which the United States has not
recognized as a government. At the
time he is a German citizen, hav-
ing voluntarily so declared himself
when he entered the country in 1916.
"This government has not forgotten
the u~nwarrantable arrest and deten-
tion for months of Consul Treadwell
and the illegal and Wjustifiable i'm
under severe hardships of
Vice Consuls Durri and Leonard, con
trary to the fundamental practice of
civilized nations. Nor has it forgot
ten that an American citizen, Kalama-
tinno, has been held In prison at Mos
COW for months under sentence of
death, without proper trial, and with
out opportunity for his government to
assist him. The government of the
United States now views with grave
concern the reported threat of the au-
thorities at Moscow to take further
illegal measures in the form of re-
against American citizens i'm
Such a course, If adopted,
would be certain to arouse i'm the
United States an overwhelming pub
ic sentiment OF indignation against
he authorities at Moscow responsible"

TramMaY Strike Called

Denyer.-Twelve hundred trainmen
and shopmen of the Tramway Company
struck at 4 O'Clock Tuesday morning.
Instructions were issued to men run
ming the owl cars to take their cars to
the barns after completing the runs be-
gun before the hour set for the strike.
The strike vote resulted from the re-
storatlOn by the City Council of the r.
cent fare and the announcement by the
company of Il reduction in wages of it's
employees following the decision by the
Supreme Court unfolding the right of
home rule cities to regulate the rates
of public utilities without interference
by the State Public Utilities Commits
sion.

DEMPSEY Is WINNER.
Jess Willard Loses Belt In Three
Rounds.


Ringside, TOledo.-Jack Dempsey,
In three bloody rounds, during which
the issue was never in doubt, annexed
the worlds premier fistic hOnOrs by
defeating Jess Willard. In the first
round Dempsey sent home a body
blow from which the big fellow never
recovered. The gong alone saved him
from defeat in the first round, for
with swollen cheeks, right eye closed,
Dempsey knocked him down and
threw him helpless against the ropes
seven times. Dempsey thought he had
won when the gong sounded and had
TO be brought back into the ring.
Willard, who lowered above his antag-
onist like a lighthouse over a tug,
acted like a sick man. He was beaten
and knew ii. He swung wildly and
feebly, while his relentless antagonist
pounded home blows like a great riv-
citing machine. There were cries of
stop it. !" stop it" ITS murder!"
jess managed to last out the third
round and sank into his corner where
he was given spirits of ammonia. He
revived, tried to smile, and then his
seconds surrendered the match.

FLIGHT.
REACHES DESTINATION
FIRST LIGHTER-THAN-AIR CRAFT
TO CROSS ATLANTIC
OCEAN.

Mineola, n. Y, July 7.-Great Brit
aims super-dirigible R-34, the frs
lighter-than-air machine to cross tn,
Atlantic ocean, anchored here a
Roosevelt flying field yesterday aftel
an aerial voyage of 10S hours and 1.
minutes, which covered 5000 miles
Passing through dense banks of clouds
with the sun and sea visible only al
rare intervals, the R-34 was forced tC
cruise 2,03O miles to reach Trinity bay
Newfoundland, from East Fortune
Scotland, and 1850 miles from there
to MineOla.
When the super-Zeppelin arrived
here she had left only eIsough petrol
to keep her moving ninety minutes
longer. Her crew, almost ~sleepless for
four and "A half days, were weary al
most to the point of exhaustion, but
happy at the successful completion of
their trip.
Haggard, unshaven, their eyes blood
shot from the long vigil and lines of
care Bitten deep into their faces. Maj.
G. II. Scott, the commander, and his
officers showed plainly the effects of
the anxious hours through which they
lived yesterday while they were cruls-
ing over the far reaches of Canada
and the Bay of Fundy, beset by fog,
heavy winds and terrific electrical
storms.
ut seemed as though the atmos-
phere was haunted by 5000 DEVILS"
said Lieut.. Guy Harris, the meteoro-
logical officer.
With the R-34 long overdue at it's
destination, petrol supply running low
and buffeted by strong winds, Major
Scott decided while over the Bay of
Fundy to send a wireless call to the
American Navy Department to prepare
to give assistance if it were needed.
This was merely a measure of precau-
ton and did not indicate discourage
ment.
While destroyers and submarine
chasers were racing to her assistance,
R-34 was plugging steadily ahead
on the way TO Mineola. Once clear Of
the Bay of Fundy, the hoodoo which
had beset the craft from the time 1t
took the air was gradually left in its
wake.
The R-34 headed southwest out
across the Atlantic along the coast Of
Maine, her nose pointed for Cape Cod,
with the United States destroyer Ban
croft hanging on her tail, and In con
wireless communication with
her. The destroyer struck close In the
wake of the air monster, running I'M

rWly hurried indoors before an ambu-
that had been ILshed to the
