 FROM SOVIETS

PEKING, July 2 (by Associated Press) Inquiry by China's delegate in Siberia, Ii Chia-ao, concerning the proffered restoration to China by the Soviet government of the Chinese Eastern railway and all mining and forestry concessions by former gov ernments of Russia appears to show that the communication received by the Chinese government in the last days of March was unauthorized.
 The note purported to be signed by tfc Soviet delegate to the council of commissarios of Siberia and the Far East, Janson, by direction of the commissary for foreign affairs at Mos SOW, Harakin. A telegram from Lii Chia-ao to his government says no such communication was signed by Janson An announcement of the fact has accordingly been sent out to all the provinces by the Chinese cabinet, concluding with a warning against and instructions to check bolshevik propaganda.

WAVE IS SWEEPING THRU
 GERMAN CITIES

BERLIN, July 2 (by Associated Press) The wave of criminality in Germany shows no sign of abating. Jails are filled to capacity with the thieving fraternity, from those guilty of grand larceny down to the sneak thieves of the big city streets. Very often new arrivals have to be temper arily released from custody owing to lack of room in the penitentiaries Here are some of the principal thefts and robberies reported in the last few days.
 Burglars broke into the Berlin stock exchange and forced a safe open from which they took $500 marks and five typewriters.
 At Kresau, the mausoleum of Field Marshal Won Moltke was broken open and the silver wreaths and crosses stolen from the sarcophagus. The field marshal's sword was found broken.
 A band of armed robbers forced their way into the burgomaster'e house at Paaren near Nauen, appro- priated 50,000 marks belonging to the village treasury and left the burgo. master tied to a chair
 At Fallersleben near Brunswick the author of a theft from a sealed freight car was traced and several carloads of stolen goods were discovered hid den. The chief was a candidate for town councillorship
 At Spanrau morturay chapel was stripped of it's leaded window panes
 Another morturay chapel at Staak en was stripped of it's zinc roof

PORTUGAL NOT MUCH WORRIED
 WITH UNREST

LISBON, Portugal, July (by Asso- ciated Press) Portugal, in spit of all the lurid reports spread abroad by interested parties, is at the present moment of social and economical troubles no worse off than other coun- tries which participated in the great war.
 ' When one drives through Lisbon and her suburbs on a Sunday and watches the happy crowds holiday making after the weeks work, the impression gained is that it would be difficult to find in any country such contented light-hearted people as the Portuguese. Unless some means of conveyance be previously engaged, walking is the only method of loco motion available on that day for trains, motorcars, carriages, carts, and omnibuses are all hired or seats booked in advance. Even the street cars are filled to overflowing by work men and their families on the way to the outlying districts, smilingly bear ing with them their picnic baskets.
 The leafy avenues just outside the city are filled with people afoot, sing ing popular songs from the latest re- vues or exchanging merry jests, with the people in the conveyance.
 Outside and inside the railroad sta tions, from early morning, are filled 1 with people of the more wealthy, working classes, trying to obtain ac- commodatiOns for a trip either to Gin tra, >Cascaes or the Estoril, the beau tiful Riviera of Portugal.
 It is true that besides all this mer- ry-making there is social unrest in Portugal. Strikes are frequent but generally peaceable; there is an oc- casional bomb and sometimes street riot, but Bolshevik revolution there is none. When three bombs were recent ly thrown into the ranks of a popular demonstration of gratitude to the gov ernment for taking measures to lower the prices of fOOdstuffs, most of the demonstrators carried on as though nothing had happened, as usual.

SAYS WOMEN NOT

"Women voters are not for Cox"

his statements in favor Of this meas

There are great many travelling

Their intelligent optimism has often
held a merchant up past the breaking

travelling men have devoted wives;

in what their husbands are doing. Cox
lost what friends re may have had
among these good people by his amaz-
ingly stupid attack on commercial
travelling and the travelling man.
