laps Intentions Regarding
Shantung Will be For
mally Declared.

WASHINGTO&, Aug. 5-Japan's
intentions in the Chinese province
Of Shantung. where she is given
control by the Versailles treaty.
soon are to be set forth in formal
declaration from the Toxic govern
ment, according 10 information re-
ccived here Monday in official cir
Clcs.
Although the exact nature of the
declaration was not forecast. il was
assumed II would follow the lines Of
the repeated statements Of Japanese
statesmen that the province even
tually Is to be returned TO China.
In some quarters it was believed
japan might even set a date for the
restoration and acknowledge public
~ the secret understanding sne is
SAID 10 have with China on that sur
ject.
The reported decision of the
Japanese government TO make
known its purposes il believed 10 be
the outgrowth of informal diliC-
Ilatic conversations between Wash
ington and Toxic reflecting the
American governments desire that
all the facts in the case be given 10
the public. Pres't Wilson has told
many senator's that a complete eN-
pOsure of the case would throw a
new light on the Shantung provi-
sion. which has been ore of the
points of attack in senate opposi-
tion 10 the treaty's ratification.
Diplomats Speculate.
Although it had beer known for
several days that a development
was im minent. there had been much
speculation in senatorial and diplo-
matte circles whether the Japanese
government itself would appeal OF
the subject or would remain silent
and permit the disclosure of Japan

conjecture had shifted TO the ques
tions whether the Japanese declara-
tion would be considered by the

could write shorthand rapidly, but in
transcribing it on the typewriter he
persisted in abbreviating my letters,
and sometimes changed the outline
of my speeches. The result was RI
diculous.
HardWare.-He was an expert
checker-player. He knew all the
shrewd moves, all the professional
tactics, and he was ceaselessly talk
ing of certain original moves that
would some day make a famous
champion. He insisted on playing
and on attracting to my house a
troup of youngsters whose highest
ambition was to "break into the
kingdom"
Banking House.-He wouldn't work
except at one desk-without grum-
bling. No emergency was ever suf
ficient to make him cheerful helper
at some other desk, though his own
were idle. We needed an adaptable
character.
Transfer Company. He overcharged
our customers, and to this dishones-
ty he added the inexecusable, habit
of demanding tips.

He would break up more cars than
we could pay for. He several times
dashed into vehicles, luckily killing
nobody, but leaving us damage claims
to pay.

Waukesha, Informed Miss Dramm that
10 per cent of the younger children of
Europe are afflicted with rickets. Ey-
cry effort is being bent to save the
children and babies. Letters from hos
pitals in Germany speak of the alb
sence of even towels to dry the babies,
newspapers and other paper being used
for the purpose. Thousands of infants
have been taken from their enfeebled
and undernourished mothers and plac-
ed in hospitals and temporary quarters
and in many cases these innocent vie
Tins of war have not even clothes to
cover them. The merchants of Mil
waukee have donated thousands of
bolts of cloth TO be sewed into child
renS' garments. A systematic canvass
of drug stores and physicians offices
was made by the boys of Marquette
college for samples and fragments of
soap and thousands of pounds were
brought in and forwarded. Dray loads
Of out-of-Style clothing was either dom
ated by the stores or sold to the COM
mittee for a song.

RESPONDING ROBlY

Miss Marie Dramm has returned
from Waukesha and Milwaukee where
she purchased and forwarded to the
Rsd Cross at Hamburg, 1000 pounds
of matted milk. She ordered another
200 pounds expressed to Manitowoc
where il will he distributed among the
collection stations and resold at cost
to those desiring to send it by parcel
post to their suffering relatives and
friends.
Miss Dramm brings back a remark
able story of the relief work being
done in Milwaukee for the stricken
population Of the German and Austrian
republics and Central Europe general
ly. Not a school building in all Of
Germany, Austria, Switzerland and
surrounding countries win be heated
this winter for lack Of coal and to help
make il possible for the little children
to exist in the cold school rooms, the
women of Milwaukee are knitting TO-
600 pairs of wristlets and canyassing
the city for old stockings with good
tops to prepare leggines to help keep
the tots warm. Miss Dramm saw one
lot of 1000 wristlcts that had been knit
by the children of the Catholic schools
There are upwards Of l20 women
working at the headquarters on West
Water street and $50 bales of clothing
averaging 225 pounds each were ship
ped the day before. A power press is
used to bale the clothing, as tonnage to
Europe is SO scarce that 20 cents per
cubic foot is charged IN cases where
$3.50 is not charged on tonnage. Mill
waukee has already shipped to Ham-
burg $4,000 pounds Of milk, 10000

CITY HAS MOTOR COP

Without public notice of the fact the
city police department acquired the
motor cop which it has long desired.
The mounted officer sailed forth last
Friday and soon was in court with
Aubrey Egan and John Kirt who each
paid the usual assessment for speeding.
The new officer, Max Brown, was
one time policeman at San Diego,
Cal, and was commissioned officer
during the war.
Leonard Bruechart, taxi driver,
paid Slabs for passing street car
which was discharging passengers. The
other 999 who have done this the past
two or three months were not in court.
Tuesday the new speed officer hailed
eight more culprits before the bar of
Justice resulting in net returns to the
county of $ll5. The list was Alvin
Christensen, Sturgeon Bay; Eldred
Robinson, Green Bay; c. M. Hender-
son, Milwaukee; Ed. Schmitz, Rapids;
Clarence Neuser, Mike Musiel, f. San
ford and o. Hoffman all of this city.
The old stand, $140I, seemed to be
Sl4.3S in all cases which however is
not an increase proportionate with
other commodities.

STRIKE AT TWO RIVERS. SETTLED

At a meeting held last Tuesday the
labor organizations of this city voted
to end the strike which has been on
since August IL. The vote was taken
by the men of the Hamilton and
Aluminium Goods companies and was
l7S in favor and a. against ending the
strike. The vote calling off the strike
at the Aluminium Goods plans was 9S
to 20, with four blank ballots and the
Hamilton plant vote was so to 5 with
one blank ballot. There was no con-
ference between the employers and
strikers preceding the vote taken
Tuesday.
Mr.. Oscar F. Nelson, a representa-
tive of the government labor bureau,
was here to assist in bringing about a
settlement. The Hamilton company
issued letter setting forth the condi-
tions and policies of the future in
which the company stated that it had
worked out a classification of en-
ployes and had established a minimum
and maximum rate, as far as possible,
in each line of work and had sought to
correct inequalities or injustice. The
company states that it had granted a
general increase in all lines of work
and that for bonus workers the day
rate and bonus rate remained the same
in addition to which would be paid
whatever bonus was earned.
The company in its letter declares
that it will continue the policy of the
open shop and will not discriminate
against employees because of member
ship in unions and insists that no en-
ployee discriminate against another for
non-membership in any organization.
Nearly all of the men who were
striking went back to work yesterday
morning. Most of them got their old
jobs back, but in some cases other men
had been hired to fill the places of
strikers. However, there will be en-
ployment for all in short time and
those who will not get their old jobs
back, will be given employment at
other lines of work and it will not be
long before conditions will be as salts
factory as ever and everybody will be
happy and prosperous. Many of the
younger men who left the city during
the strike have already returned and it
is certain that nearly every one will be
back before long-Two Rivers Chroni-

ROBBERY AT VALDERS

Zan ZamoShko was the victim of a
robbery from the person at Valders
last week. He identified Walter Dan
ielak as one of the two men who had
robbed him. Danielak attempted to
make the authorities believe that he
hadtaken the money to protect it for
the owner and he professed ignorance
as to who his partner was. He later
came through with the story and adj
mitted that he had split $3.50 with one
Mike Buick. Buick is believed to have
been the imitator and prime mover in
the affair and the authorities are
anxious to get their hands on him.
Danielak's reticence as to his compan-
ion gave the man, Buick, fine oppor-
tlInity to make his get away which he
surely availed himself of The one in
custody pleaded guilty in municipal
court but sentence was deferred to see
if Buick could not be located.

BOYS PASS BAD CHECKS

Two lads commenced in August to
put bogus checks into circulation in
small amounts and were so successful
in the scheme that they had gotten
away with at least SlS7 and lot of
merchandise before their careers were
brought up with a jerk last week. The
surprising feature of the thing is that
merchants would cash the crude for
geries and that they would charge off
the amounts and not make complaint
when they learned that they had been
Stung. The arrests were due to shoe
dealer who put the lads through a
course of questioning before cashing
check for them. His unusual line of
queries got through the boys pre-ar-
ranged lies for some information which
he followed up himself and told the
police where to get the young Grim
inals The whole story came out when
Chief Trochlell put them through a
course of sprouts at police headquar-
tiers. The youngsters have been in
trouble before. The police brought
them. ho ,e frun Greysa Bay senle tisne
ago where they were charged with hav-
ing stolen a bicycle.
They were not committed this time.
Relatives have made good the mer-
chants losses.
