BRITISH TRADES UNION MEETING “Hgainst Conscription-Favor Gov- ernment Railroads Bristol, Eng., Sept. 7, 12:44 p. m.— A resolution against conscription was passed unanimously, with great & cheering, at today's session of the drades Union congress. The resolu- tion was forwarded to Premier As- quith, Earl Kitchener, David Lloyd George and Lord Northcliffe. The congress also declared in favor of nationalization of railroads, taking the position that the experience of the government in managing the = .roads during the war was sufficiently ricouraging to justify this step- James A, Seddon, the pres&df‘,nL himself moved the resolution against conscription. ! Attempt to Foist Conscription. | It expresses, “hearty appreciation 8¢ the magnificent response to the call for volunteers to fight against the tyranny of militarism” and protests against “the sinister efforts of a sec- tion of the reactionary press in for- s¢mulating newspaper policies for party purposes and attempting to foist on their country conscription, which al- ways proves a burden to workers.” The resolution promises assistance to the government in every way to procure a sufficient number of volun- ‘teers. Twits Lord Northcliffe Mr. Seddon twitted Lord North- =, cliffe, ‘proprietor of the Ijondon Times, and other publications, for his newspaper campaigns on several aspects of the war which he said were “harmless” and proceeded: ‘“But when it came to an attempt to rush the country and force the hand of the government it was time for demo- cracy to say that no man, however, *,powerful in the press, should supplant the true will of democracy.” Mr. Seddon protested against “The attempt o rush tlic country and force the hand of the government it was time for democracy to say that no man, however powerful in the press, should supplant the true will of democracy.” Mr. Seddon protested against “The attempt to embroil the nation in a great internal conflict which would split it in two 2t a time when nation- al unity was all essential.” DICTATOR SUNK; UNOFFICIAL REPORT Harrison Liner Was Slow and Prob- Reached ‘War Zone. : ably Has Not London, Sept. 7, 11:35 a, m.—The ,. ;Central News says that the Harrison line steamship Dictator was sunk sev- eral days ago, and that her crew of forty-two was landed without casual- ties. There is no confirmation of this report. Under the recent ruling of the Brit- ish admiralty details concerning the sinking of vessels by submarines are withheld, but the implication of the rforegoing despatch is that the Dicta- tor was attacked and sunk in the war zone about the British Isles. The Harrison line steamer Dictator, 4,116 tons gross and owned in Liver- pool, sailed from Pernambuco, Bra- zil on August 31, for Cabadelo Bra- ‘ zil. Her subsequent movements have not been reported but as she requires » about seventeen days for the voyage “to Fngland she could not ‘nave reached the war zone ‘“several days ago.” It is possible that some other Harrison line steamer or another ves- sel named Dictator, of which there were several, has been sunk. FOREIGN SHIPPING AND SEAMAN’S ACT Ships Built Abroad and Trading From Foreign Points Not Liable Un’dcr Law. Washington, Sept., 7.—A large pro- ‘pertion of foreign ships in the Amer- ican trade and all foreign-built ships now under the American flag, are ex- empted from important provisions of the new scamen’s bill by legal opin- ions made public today by the depart- ment of ccmmerce. Attorney General Gregory in an opinion submiited to President Wilson upaolds Solicitor Thurman of the de- partment of commerce, who ruled that vessels of foreign countries whose navigation laws ‘“‘approximate” those of the United States are not subject to the seciion of the new law making extensive safety appliance require- mnts. In another opinion Solicitor Thur- man held today that the inspection provisions of the new law do not apply to foreign built ships admitted to Am- erican vegistry under the president's prociamation suspending survey, in- gpection and measurement laws to al- low the register of those vessels. - According to Solicitor Thurman the attorney sgencral’s opinion will ex- empt from the provisions of the act the vessels of virtually all the great maritime nations. Solicitor Thur- man’s second opinion will exempt 163 vessels of 5 12 tons, now under the Americar flag. - DWINSK DOCKS THURSDAY. New York, Sept. 7.—Maritime cir- cles were relieved today when the Russian-American line steamship Dwinsk, four days overdue from Ar- changel, signalled by wireless that siae for treatment. TRIO.

RIGA’S FALL RUMORED; PANIC IN PETROGRAD Berlin Claims That Pretense to Re- serve Czar's Residence Was Real Cause- Berlin, Sept. 7, by wireless to Sav- ville, N. Y., —The Overseas News Agency says that a panic was caused in Petrograd yesterday by rumors that the Russian Baltic port of Riga kad been captured. “The Lokal Anzeiger publishes pri- vate telegrams from Stockholm,” says the news agency, ‘stating that the Russian capital was thrown into con- fusion by reports that the positions cn the Dvina line had been captured, that Russian armies had been de- stroyed, that Riga had been taken and that the German advance upon the capital would be no longer ham- pered. Immense crowds gathered in front of the newspaper offices. There was great excitement and many ar- rests were made. “Towards evening the newspapers published extra editions containing official denials of these rumors. and saying the Russian defensive posi- tions were till intact. However, the spread of panic at the capitol and re- ports of Emepror Nicholas’ trip to the front are only a pretense to veil the removal of the Emepror's resi- dence to the interior.” PLANS TO- BE MADE TONIGHT.

X ISLE OF MAN, “inancial Diffic ay Add Home Rule Island to County of Lancashire. (Correspondence the Associated Press.) London, August 30.—The Isle of Man, which has enjoyed home ruie since ancient times, is in such an economic quandry that a proposal to ask the imperial government that the island be annexed to the County of Lancashire was rently considered, in the House of Keys, the legislative as- sembly of the island. The member who moved the resolution declared that the island faced ‘“‘imminent star- vation and bankruptcy owing to the buagling and incompetence of the present island administration.” The motion for annexation was formerly seconded and two other members were in favor of it, but the proposi- tion was eventually lost and the is- land continues for the present under its own government. The Isle of Man is one of the favorite resorts of thousands of Lan- cashire cotton workers and other factory employes, and is practicaily dependent on visitors, who pay a small poll tax towards the upkeep of piers and harbors. This year, how- ever, the fast steamers have been withdrawn, and only one slow win- ter boat makes a trip daily. Many hotels and boarding houses are clos- ed. Three of the finest hotels shelter only cne visitor each. McNERNEY WITHDRAWS. New Haven, Sept. 7.—A political announceent of interest to demo- crats here today, was that Peter J.

From first to last, indeed, German diplo- macy in this sumarine discussion has been irregular—to put it mildly. The Berlin statesmen have deliberately preferred devious ways, just as the German propagandists in this coun- try have sought to accomplish their ends by indirection and intrigue- No greater contrast could be found than exists between this dishonest and “irregular’ method of achieving one's desired results and tho open diplo- macy, for example, of the late John Hay. What does official Berlin know about the Goldren Rule as applied to international affairs? To ask the question is to evoke a cynical smile. Yet straightforwardness has its uses, even in diplomacy. Single-mind- ed insistence on an undebatable point is better than forever beating about the bush- It will be a pity if the German diplomats do not gather some hint of this from what has now bappened to them. They have heretofore clung to the old, outworn Turkish ideal. The Ottoman govern- ment has historically palavered and postponed until the government with which it was disputing put an end Local Mann Though Quiet, Light dealing with a characterized the local today. ‘The close of ti two days and a half, the fact that many peo out of town was largely’ for the inactivity, .
