ESTABLISHED 18 SENATE HITS HIGH SPEED IN HURRYING UP WAR TAX| PEAGE NOTE REPLY All Undisputed Provisions Expected Settled Before Tonight—Income and War Profits Tomorrow. Washington, Aug. 17.—Disposal be- fore night of nearly all the provisions of the war tax bill over which there is no dispute was the senate’s program for today and accomplishment of the task seemed assured. The senate tentatively has agreed on the liquor section with its prohibition features, in addition to many other important provisions. Present plans call for consideration tomorrow of the income and war prof- its taxes, the chief points in dispute. Should these provisions be disposed of then, efforts probably will be made for an agreement on a date for a fi- ‘nal vote on the bill. WARN 1. W. W. T0 LEAVE Authoritics 'l‘a.k?

Anniston, Ala., Aug. 17.—Two men who! according to police authorities, admitted they were members of the I. W. W. were departed from this city yesterday on charges of attempt- ing to spread dissatisfaction among the workmen at Camp McClellan. Af- ter their arrest by the military au- thorities, Major Dulin, constructing quartermaster at the camp, ordered that the men be put on a train with instructions “not to return,” according to a statement issued by the chief wf police, Washington, Aug. 17.—Senator Ashurst denounced the I. W. W. to- day in the senate. “With the T. W. W. perjury is & fine art and murder has been reduced to a science”, the Arizona senator de- clared. ‘“After murder has been com- mitted and a man is brought 'into court the organization produces fine alibis. It stands for Imperial Wil- helm’s warriers.” Senator Ashurst said he expects in a later speech to explain further re- warding the purpose of the organiza- tion. Washington, Aug. 17.—Sending fed- eral troops to Washington, Oregon, Montana, and Idaho to keep war in- dustries moving and to check disord- ers, is regarded by officlals as a possi- bility in the near future should the threatened I.

Hartford, Aug. 17.—Unpleasant re- lations between mother-in-law and son-in-law were related in the habeas corpus case before Judge Joseph P. Tuttle in the superior court today when Frank A. Dolph of Essex asked for the custody of hig only child, Hagel WVivian Dolph, six years old, which had been refused by the child’s grandmother, Mrs. Ida M. Avery of Clinton. Edith A. Dolph left her husband on June 18, 1917, and went to the home of her mother, taking the lit- tle girl with her, it is alleged. Mrs. Dolph died July 6, and since then, Mr. Dolph alleged, that the grand- mother had refused to let him have the child. Mrs. Avery claimed that Dolph was not a suitable person to have charge of the girl. Judge Tuttle heard the testimony of the father, the grandmother, Judge Thomag D. Coulter of the Es- mex probate court, who testifled that the father was a suitable person in his opinion to have the child; Deputy Sheriff John A. Christensen of Deep River and George A. Norwood, chief aogountant and factory superintend- ent of Pratt, Reed & Company in Deep River, where Mr. Dolph is em- ployed. * Judge Tuttle granted the appeal and ordered the child restored to the father. BELIEVE SHIPS DESTROYED Five Vessels Overdue at a Pacific Port Thought to Have Been Biown Up by Bombs. A Pacific Port, Aug. 17.—Five ships, three American, one ‘British and one Japanes were overdue at this port and have been virtually given up by their owners and agents. Marine rec~ ords say they believe the vessels have been destroyed by time bombs placed in the cargoes by enemy ‘agents. This theory was strengthened today when a sailor employed near this port told of having seen. fragile bottles, containing acid, taken from cargo powder cases, where they had been placed in such a manner that the breaking of the bot- tles would have ignited the powder. The overdue vessels are the Ameri- can schooner Winslow, the American salling ship R. C. Slade, the dmerican achooner Betuga, a Japanese freight- er Koto Hira and the British freighter ‘Watruna. DR. GRAYES ARRESTED. Man Who Boasted of Being Kaiser's Personal Spy Found in Railroad Station Without Permit. Kansas Clity, Aug. 17.—Dr. Graves, self-styled international spy who came into prominence in 1914 after the pub- lication of & volume of his experiences “The personal spy of the Kaiser”, was arrested by federal agents last night at the Union station for being in the station without permit. Dr. Graves told the authorities he was working for the department of state. Graves, after his arrest, gave out statements that he was on his way to Denver in an effort to obtain papers that would prove the “illegitimacy of the Hohenzollern family.” Among Graves' possessions were. found documents relating to the es- tablishment of a Saxon union in this country. The self-styled without funds when poorly dressed. almost and spy was arrested, ‘Washington, Aug. 17.Dr. Karl Arm- gaard Graves' statement that he was working for the state department was the direct cause of his arrest in Kansas City. Graves, the federal authorfties. say, has been representing himself in several western cities as representing the state department, and in view of his status the authorities thought it wise to take him into_ custody. CANADA’S WOUNDED.

Copenhagen, Aug. 17.—The German government's attitude on so important a matter as the peace proposal of Pope Benedict can only be made known after the most careful deliber- ation, particularly as to its decision which can only be taken in full accord with Germany’s allies. A statement to this effect has been communicated by the German foreign office to the Ger- man press. AR | Will Obtain Allies’ Views. | ‘Washington, Aug. 17.—President ‘Wilson and Secretary Lansing soon will begin a series of important con- ferences preliminary to the response to be made to Pope Benedict's peace message. Before the communication goes forward the views of the Entente governments will be ascertained. This necessarily will take some time on ac- count of delays in transmitting by cable. 3 The Pontiff's peace note, the text of. ‘which reached the state department by cable from London foreign office late yesterday, is now before the pres- ident. He probably will give it close study before taking up the subject with Secretary Lansing. In officlal end diplomatic circles here today Premier Liloyd George's epeech was regarded as voicing the views of the Allies as to any discus- sion of peace. His accounting of food supplies and the shipping situation as affected Ly the submarine warfare al- 80 was rugarded as indicative of Great Britain’s safe position and strong at- titude. It was thought here 'that one of the objects of the premier's speech was to sound out public sentiment prelimin- ary to the formal responses to be made to the Pope’'s note. It is likely that public men in other allied coun- tries will follow suit. | Courder d’Italia Praises Note. Roms, Aug. 17.—The text of Papal note appeared here.at.noon. It is expected the Allies will glve the Pope a collective answer and perhaps the Central empires will do likewise. Monsignor Beccaria, chaplain at the court of Ttaly, was entrusted last week to deliver the Pope’s note to the king. “The Pope's peace proposals are true restoration ‘in the sense of Lloyd George's last speech and constitute a peace without annexation or indem- nities supported in' other ‘quarters,” says the Oorriere d'Italia the semi- officlal organ of the Vatlcan. The paper adds that the Pope's note ‘does not propose to return to the status quo and suggests the restoration of “the old" kingdom of Poland” as it wag before being dismembered by the three empires. The Giornale d'Italla says the Central empires will now be obliged to announce their condftions of peace which the Pope will communicate to the Allles. An important feature of the Papal note is that it is the first document of the Holy See addressed to the Italian government since the ' fall of the temporal power. It is the first document asking Austria to evacuate Italian territories after the note of Pius IX addressed to the em- peror of Austria In 1848 advising him to return Itallan provinces. Looks to Catholic Church. Rio Janeiro, Aug. 17.—The press generally abstains from comment on the peace proposals of the Pope. The opinion of the public and that of some _newspapers s skeptical. O’Paise hopes that the reprobation of the Catholic world will complete the uni- versal reprobation and bring final judgment of human conscience on the barbarity which is ravaging civiliza- tion. | JOHN P.

CHINA NGT LINKED WITH GERMANY’S FOES | War Will Be Waged Inde- pendently of Allies, Peking Reports. Peking, Aug. 14. (delayed)—China's declaration of war on Germany and Austria-Hungary, begifining at 10 a. m. today and the other documents re- lating to the conflict do not mention the association of the Chinese republic with the Entente powers.' They indi- cate that China's action will be en- tirely independent. The declaration of war created little excitement in Peking or in other north China cities, the long discussion of the question having discounted its effect. The Netherlands minister to China today took over the Austrian interests and received the arms of the Austrian guard.. The. doors . of . the. Deytsch Asiatistche bank have been sealed. Chinesé troops at Tien Tsin took over tha Austrian concessions.and.the German bank and German barracks there without incident. Regulations issued today by the gov- ernment permit the departure of Ger- mzas and Austrians within five days. Registration within ten days is re- quired to permit. Teutons to continue deing business if it does not affect China’s welfare. Enemy subjects are forbidden to travel without permits. | The regulations also provide for the |internment of troublesome enemies. The proclamation of war, which was | signed by President Feng Kwo-Chang, reviews China's efforts to induce Ger- many to modify her submarine policy. It says that respect for international law and protection of the lives and property of Chinese citizens forced China to sever relations with Germany and now compelled China to decllrer war against Germany, and Austria too, as it wag not Germany alone, but Aus- tria-Hungary, as well, which adopted and pursued this policy without abate- ment. The proclamation declares that all treaties, agreements-and protocols be- tween China and the Central Powers have been abrogated. It says China will respect the Hague conventions and the international agreements re- specting the humane comduct of the war and, in conclusion, asserts that China’s object in entering the war is to hasten peace. 1 RECRUITING FOR TROOP B.

Robinson and Gardner C. Weld, 21l New Britain men. At present, Troop B has a quata of 105 men and 72 more are wanted. The committee has permission to accept men who have already been experience little difficulty in securing the required number as the romance of machine gunning makes an appeal to the average red-blooded American. All the members of Troop B are of the type desirable for companians and the officers accord them proper treat- ment.

Plattsburg alone has taken ten members af the com- pany and promotion in the near future appears to be within the realm of |l probability.
