new OUTBREAK
County Elections Result In Of
ficials Being Elected Who
Oppose Dublin.

Dublin. July S.-The net result OF
the recent county council elections is
that now both in the cities and in the
counties in % out of the 81 counties
and the local government Is in direct
hostility to the central government.
The first conflict between them will
arise out of the question of paying
compensation for outrage. Every day
the Judges are awarding to the rela-
tives of murdered policemen, to in
iured policemen, and to the owners OF
burned police premises large sums as
compensation chargeable on the local
rates. The total already runs up close
to e75O,O00.
The local authorities have refused
TO collect taxes for these payments.
In the case of some of them the gov
ernment can secure money by deduc-
tions from the sums payable TO the
local authorities by the imperial eX-
cheouer in relief Of local taxes.
In the majority of cases the parties
awarded compensation have only ac-
ouired right to sue the local authori-
ties in the courts for the money. 1t
is Believed that even after judgment
Is given, the local authorities will re-
fuse TO pay Many Of them have
passed resolutions saying they will
recognize no authority save that Of

MACYARS PLOT
new MONARCHY
Militarists Plan to Kill Effect of
Allied Victory and Re-
store Hapsburgs.

New York, July S.-(Special)-In
store the monarchy of the Hapsburgs
and the rule of the Magyar junker
caste over the liberated peoples of
the former Dual Empire, the militar-
list regime of Admiral Horthy, the
Hungarian regent, has singled out the
Republic of German Austria, h e
weakest of Hungary's' neighbors, as
it's first objective. -ss-r
The formal protest of the Austrian
government, recently reported against
the maintenance at ZalaegersZeg, a
Magyar city near the Austrian border
of a legion of former Austrian army
officers, with the obvious aim of or
ganizing an armed raid on Austria,
came as the climax of a series of dis
closures.
The protest that the Magyar gov
ernment had allotted ten million kro-
nen to the instigation of a monarch
ist movement, and that recruits for
the anti-republican legion were ac
tually enlisted by Hungarian officers
on Austrian soil.
The presence of the legion near the
Austrian border, the protest conclud-
ed, mot only endangers the inter-
nal peace Of the Austrian Republic,
but is a fact which may lead to re-
grettable disturbances in the relations
of the two neighboring states"
For several months royalist activi-
ties, aiming at the restoration of the
Hapsburgs, have constituted an open
scandal at Vienna. The Austrian cap
ital swarms with hundreds of Hun
garian army officers, many of them
wearing uniforms; of secret service
operatives, agents provocateurs and
spies of all description. The move
ment has been traced directly to the
Hungarian legation.

COX SPENDS
DAY ON FARM
Presidential Nominee Puts Aside
Cares Temporarily to Go Back
to His BOyhood Haunts.
NEWSWRITERS FEASTED
HObson Telegram Inquiring Defi-
mite Status On Prohibition
May Get Early Answer.

Dayton, Ohio, July S.-Putting aside
the cares of being the presidential
nominee, Governor Cox spent this af-
ternoon on a farm, at his boyhood
home thirty six miles from Dayton.
Newspapermen who trailed the gov
ernor found him with his coat off,
roasting potatoes and broiling lamb
chops over a camp fire in small
.ravine some distance from the old
homestead. His farm manager was
with him.
Taking the intrusion of newswriters
good naturedly, the governor invited
them to share in the luncheon he was
preparing, but finding it would take
more than he had, he sent to Middle
ton for more luncheon which was fl
nally served late in the afternoon.
While the potatoes were roasting
and the chops cooking, the governor
answered many questions concerning
| his early boyhood, which was spent
on the farm. He also discussed many
phases of farming At the governor 5
suggestion, the Pasture Club was
formed, consisting of the governor and
| newswriters with Miss Marjorie Will
| son of Cleveland, the only woman re-
porter present, as president. She was
unanimously elected after being nom
mated by Cox.
Cox intimated tonight he may make
early reply to a telegram from Rich
mond, Pearson Hobson, Anti Saloon
League leader, requesting a definite
! statement of his position on enforce
ment of prohibition, and congressional
action to modify the Volstead act as
to alcoholic content.
The Hobson telegram follows:
l DRY forces are restive, republicans
amongst them are applying to Harding
for strong statement. Do not let these
forces have cause to crystalize the
highest republican candidates. Demo-
cratic convention declared nearly two
to one against plank favoring even
home manufa acture of mildest alcoholic
beverages.
''Ninety-five per cent Of population
of America live in states that have
ratified eighteenth amendment with
out reservation. They are jealous of
its integrity. Supreme court in unani-
/ nous decision warned congress against
authorizing increase in alcoholic con-
tent. National officers of Anti Saloon
| League here have asked me to get
statement from you. They cite that
Harding voted for Volstead act. Could
you give me clear statement of your
being opposed to federal authorization
| of increasing alcoholic intent? This
would save to democracy millions of
voters who hold this question above
party success"

RAT PROOFINC
ACT IS PASSED
Ordinance as Agreed Upon By
Public Health Service Be-
comes City Law.

Reading the rat proofing ordinance
for the third time yesterday afternoon
the commissioners passed it and the
new ordinance will be effective after
publication three days in Pensacola
The ordinance embodies only the
amended changes recommended by the
public health service officials. With
the passage of the ordinance and the
preca ltions taken to stamp out the
plague, the threat of quarantining
Pensacola from inward and outward
shipping has been abandoned.
Officials of bordering and nearby
states were notified by DR.. Greene of
the passage of the ordinance yester-
day afternoon and of the work of
fumigation and eradication of rats
that is being carried on in, this city.
This was done to prevent any out
side quarantine proclamation. DR. Greene
also stated in his messages that the
citizens of Pensacola were co-operat-
ing with the authorities in every way
possible to stamp out the disease.
Past Assistant Surgeon HaraIson.
p. H. S., is here for conferences with
Drs. Greene and Spencer prior to GO
ing to Jacksonville in company with
expert rat catchers. A health cam
paign will be staged and educational
work in trapping rats and anti plague
work will be carried on in that CITY,
Plans are being made to carry out
the work in every coast town in the
state. Under direction of the state
board of health rat determination
work is progressing faster. DIR.
Greene stated last night that every
one here is doing everything in his
power OF assist in ridding the city of
the disease and of exterminating the
rat He urges that the citizens con-
tinue to trap and kill rats and to bring
them to the state laboratory properly
labelled with the location in which
they are found.
A telegram of congratuIation from
Surgeon General Cummings was re-
ceived last night by DR.. Spencer, the
surgeon general sending the massage
when he learned of the passage of the
ordinance and the attitude of the To-
cal citizens.
John H. Hudson, the latest victim
of the disease, is still in very seri-
Gus condition but the surgeons are
optimistic as he has survived five DAYS
after first becoming infected. Large
doses of serum have been injected, ow-
ing to the unusually severe type he
has developed and there is hope that
he will recover.

RAILROADS ARE
IGNORING
Priority Ruling for Coal Cars
Is Interpreted According to
& Whim of Agents.
BY JOHN 3. PRATT,
Publicity Commissioner, National Coal
Association

Washington, July S-There is only
slight Improvement in the car short
age, crisis since the interstate COM
merce commissions order for a 30-day
priority on coal cars went into effect
June 81.
Many Railroads Are Not Complying
With the Order.
This is due partly to interference
in the movement of all cars on ac-
count of the switchmen's strike.
Railroad carriers do not appear suf-
Efficiently Impressed with the situation
to adhere strictly to the spirit of the
commissions order. Instead, they are
following the lines of least resistance
in allowing coal cars to be used gen.
orally as before.
Each carrier is making his own in
terpretation of the commissions order,
so that coal cars are being diverted
from the mines to haul other COM
modities than coal at the whim of the
railroads.
AS a result, shippers of sand, gravel,
pleasure automobiles are able to get
a large supply of coal cars while seri-
Gus shortage of cars still exists at
the mines.
The only improvement in the car
situation of which we are advised is
in the extreme south, Florida. Ala
bama and part of Tennessee. In other
fields an acute shortage exists, while
insistent demands for coal Overwhelm
operators.
Only by strict enforcement of the
commissions order will the situation
be improved. The commission advises
US that it is anxious to get Che tan
gle Strengthened out. Tangible results
are expected by the commission with
in the next few days.

TREATY TERMS INVOLVED
Germans Contend Demands Go
Far Beyond Any Provision of
Famous Versailles Pact.

Spa, Belgium, July S.-The joint al
lied conference on terms Of the peace
treaty reached another critical point
today. Germans have until noon to-
morrow to say whether they will ac-
cept the Foch- Wilson plan of dis
armament.
The alternative is contained in the
specific threat that the allies will oc-
cupy Ruhr or other territory if Ger
many cannot or does not accept.
The German cabinet, of which seven
of the nine members are here, held a
meeting from SIS until 500 tonight.
No decision was reached. The council
adjourned until tomorrow. The pre-
vailing view among Germans was that
the allies carried demands, particular
ly the menace of occupying more Ger
man territory, much beyond and pro-
vision in the Versailles treaty; also
that the allies are taking an aggres
sive position not contemplated by any
clause of the treaty.
