months, came in yesterday from Copen
hagen manned by crew made up
largely Of wealthy Danes who volun-
tecred to break the seamen's and long

Danish Helpful Service Workers.
The three hundred volunteers worked
in ell departments Of the vessel, those
in the tire-room giving particularly
strenuous service on the run across the
Atlantic Bankers, lawyers, engineers
and teachers were among the workers.
According to Captain Gotchc, some OF
the men who worked in the grimy stoke
hole had on previous occasions crossed
with him as sa loon travellers and occu-
nants Of suites dc luxe.
50 pleased were the 800 passengers
With tho efforts of the rich volunteers
that they drafted a testimonial and
presented it to the skipper as an APP
prccia,ion Of the service rendered by
the Danes.
Soon after the vessel docked the elite
Of Denmark washed up, discarded their
dungarce and put on nstty suits and
silk shirts and headed for Manhattan

Company of this city. who returned
on the Frederik VIII said that condi-
tons generally in Denmark were de-
plorable and were caused b. the radi-
cal party, which was recently driven
from power. Prices, he said, had
jumped to unreasonable heights and
work ingmen declined to labor more
than ten or fifteen hours week
"Fostcred by the radical government,
which was ousted in April said Mr..
Lober, the workers Got to a state of
mind where work was obnoxious, and
eating and resting became their sole
desire They were content to put in
three hours labor three days week
and demanded and cot seven meals a
day. The first meal was taken az a.
m, the second at 10. the third at noon
and the other four were spread out
over the hours between 1 p. NJ. and
midnight.
THE government had passed a lau,
granting the strikers 8 per cent of
their wages while on strike, and be-
cause of these concessions to uillfullv
shirking labor the government was
facing bankruptcy. When the radicals
in power were oustcd the Danish Help
full Service was organized and the
members began to operate every essen
tial industry that was lying idle and
checrfullv went to work wherever they
were ordered by the new COVE .nment.'

Fight and Third Escapes
Policeman Shot Twice
Thieves Follow Victims ON
Motorcycle, Ask for a
Match, Slug Chauffeur

BURLINGTON, n. j., June 22--
Three men, with motorcycle and side
car. held up and robbed the automobile
in which the pay roll of the Public
Service Corporation was being carried
here to-day, black kjacked the chauffeur
and escaped with $4,000 in cash
They headed out of Burlington to
the east. All afternoon a posse has
been hunting them. Two of them sur
rendered after desperate gunfights, one
so badly wounded that ne probably
will die. The third is still at large,
but it is believed the posse has him
surrounded.
Patrolman William Mccormick, the
oldest member of the Burlington police
force, also was shot He came upon
the robbers as they were dividing their
loot in clump of woods six miles east
Of Burlington, and ordered them to
surrender. They replied with volley
and Mccormick fell, shot in the side
and back.
Farmers from the countryside and
residents Of Burlington then combined
TO hunt down the robbers. The motor
cycle has been captured, so it was
known they could not have travelled far
They came upon the robbers again
in another clump of woodland a half
mile away. Under the heavy fire di-
rected at them they started to crawl
away through the wheat field sur
rounding the wood. Howard Fleurie, a
farmer, crouching in the wheat, saw
az y ,,,rv
charged toward it, firing as he went.
The robber replied. but both men
missed and Fleurie kicked the weapon
out Of the others hand and captured
him
An hour or so later another of the
robbers was captured in Columbus by
Harry Weedle and Joseph Stephenson.
He broke away from them and they
fired. He was hit twice and taken to
Burlington Hospital in a critical CON
dition.
Of the $4,000 loot $4,000 has been
recovered. Each of the men captured
had 5000 in his pockets and the posse
recovered the satchel in which the pay
roll was carried. There was $500 in
this.
The robbers waited with the motor
cycle in front of the Public Service Cor
poration Office here, until the automobile
with the pay roll started. Then they
made detour and stopped it on West
Pearl Street. asking the chauffeur for
a match. Both the chauffeur, Gus Cente-
font, and the guard, Francis Morris,
started to search for one and found
themselves looking into The muzzles Of
three revolvers. After taking the pay
satchel, one of the robbers black JACKIE d
Centefont, apparently to keep off puc-
suit. They probably would have made a
clean escape had it not been that d
bridge on the state road was broken
down, shutting of the highway.

ROULOGNE, June 22.-War with
Turkey, peace with Russia This is
no" the program of the Supreme Coun-
Gil. Though the official communiuue
states there is to be no diplomatic rec
states there is to be no diplomatic re-
cognition of Russia at present, recogni-
moving in the direction of peace"
These words, used by one of the dele
gates, describes the discussions which
concerning Russia
England is anxious for peace with
Russia. France still holds back, but
assents with other members Of the
negotiations. AS the whole of Frances
negotiations. As the whole of France s
objection to peace with Russia con-
Germs economic matters, it may be
stated that economic negotiations with
the soviet practically means peace ne
gotiations. t'.s<e '-r'9 i.
France is also withholding assent
on peace with Russia because she
thereby possesses a pawn which can,
at given moment, be conceded to
England in exchange for something
else. Should all other differences be
disposed of between England and
France, the latter's opposition to peace
would be considerably less. The other
allied countries are also prepared for
peace negotiations at an opportune
moment. This moment, undoubtedly,
will be when some definite proposal
is obtainable from KYassin. What he
proposes to do would be to liqui-
date the debts of the old Russian gov
ernment, owed chiefly by France and
Belgium. If he can suggest a COM
promise scheme which the French co.
ernment considers acceptable to the
masses of people events will move
quickly towards a recognition Of the
Sovicts.
The position of the French govern
ment is particularly difficult because
Russia's loans to France are not held
BY large financial houses but arc in
The hands of small investors through
out the country. Although Belgium is
IN position somewhat similar to
France, she already is resigned to the
fact that it is useluss to insist that
Russia s present government pay the
loans of the former regime in full.
The Brussels conference will prob
ably mark another advance towards
peace and it is even possible the Rus
sian delegate may be invited to Spa.
The Allies are fully aware of the dan
ger of playing with Turkish and Boil
shevik fire at the same time peace with
Russia viii be worth many divisions

istc.
The Boulogne conference Of the
Supreme Council broke up to-day amid
smiles on all sides. The leave taking
of the French and British rrcmiers and
experts in the lobby Of the hotel
where both were staying was particu-
larly cordial. Lloyd George and Mil
lerand clearly dominated the meetings
OF the Supreme Council. Italy, Japan

LETTERS OF TESSIE AND JOE

Dear Joe:
The baby tried to sit up today, and
YOU imagine that. Joe? ! don't say he
actually sat up, past tense, but with
perfectly free conscience | can say he got
up as far as the end Of his neck and that's
at least starting at the right end, you
might dav. That's the first time he's
tried 10 sit up bx his little self, but OF
course he can SIT up perfectly with little
assistance, such sc pulling him up by bis
little arms 10 q sitting position and then
quickly putting pillows behind bis little
back
At first he didn't seem 70 care much for
Sophie. the new nurse-glrl, and every
time she came near him when he Was en-
loving a good CRY he would stop i'm
mediatelv and start TO make complaining
noises, but he seems 10 be quite fond of
her and in revenge she just dotes OF him.
And although, as | told you, she is very
inpressioneble when il comes TO letting
things drop, she is real careful where the
more important things are concerned,
such as any best cut glass and the baby.
In reply TO the question whether |
want YOU 10 send me any samples Of
Dandelion Soup, the Daisy Canned Soup
Co 5 latest, I'm torn between doubt and
hesitation. Personally the answer would
be emphatically No, because I've tasted
all the other kinds OF d. G. Soups and
why should | make martyr of myself
Just for the sake Of an experiment? But
then on the other hand I'm thinking Of
Sophie, who being q vegetarian by rell-
gion may be able TO stand more IN the
canned soup line. And then on still the
other hand if she acts adversely towards
the first can I'll have all the rest left on
my hands with the painful thought Of
eating can every once in a while out Of
feeling that waste is sinful no matter
how excusable. So on the whole Joe
/ don't send any
Trusting that nothing I've said viii
induce YOU to show TOO much consdera-
ton in selling ID. G. Soups, | nm as ever,
Your loving wife,
Iessie.
