NISH CAPTURED BY | BULGARIAN FORGES Capital of Serbia Falls and Way Now Open for Central Powers to Constantinople. TRIPLE HOSTS EFFECT JUNCTION LONDON, Nov. 7.—The Bulgari- ans have occupled Nish, the Serblan capital, which gives them complete control of the railway from Prahova, on the Danube, and thus opens & tiurough route for the central powers to Sofia and Constantinople. In addition the Bulgarian and German main armies have effected a junction at Krivivir, so that the cam- paign, which has been somewhat slower than expeeted, probably will move at & faster pace. In fact, ex- cept for the southern part of Serbia, the invasion is already gathering ‘more headway, and despite Serbian 1esistance, the invading armies have !l made congiderable progress. Defeated in Sonth In the south, however, the allled forces appear to be too strong for the Bulga- rians, who admit that they are faced by superior numbers. It is reported through the Berblan legation at Athens, that the British, French and Serblans have in- filcted a severs defeat on the Bulgarians at levor, ten miles west of the Vardar More allled troops are being sent from Baloniki to the scene of the fighting in the hope that they will be able, oy the capture of Veles, to compel the bulga- who advanced west of Uskub to retire and clear the Saloniki-Mitrovitsa , 80 that assistance can Ve sent to the Serblan northern army. apparently must be sent by the British French, for, despite the defeat of Zaimis government and the triumph reek chamber, there intends to Athens are concerning which was re- ) ] ; £ 93s £ g §§. 5 H a0 | i ON NEXT CONVENTION CITY [ .

These points deal with new procedures in prize courts, the effect of which, the United States complains, s “'to subject traders to risk of loss, delay and expense so great and so burdensome A8 to practically destroy much of the export trade of the United States to neutral countries of Burope Qe m of Proof, 10, 11. These discussed questions of the burden of the proof as to non-contra- band of goods consigned “to order.”” the United State arguing that nome of the es cited by Great Britain proves that he burden of proof can rightly be made ain's enemies “cannot be accepted as laying down a just or legal rule of evi dence” that commodities are destined fi re-exportation to the belligerents. Such rule, It is argued, “offers too great oppor- tunity for abuse by the belligerents” and is opposed “to those fundamental prin- ciples of justice which are the foundation of the jurisprudence of the United States and Great Britain.”" Admission by Britain. 13. Attention is directed to the fact that Great Britain admits that Its exports to neutral countries have also materially in- creased since the present war began. “Thus Great Britain,” says the note, ‘‘concernedly shares in creating a condi- tlon which i relled upon as suffictent ground to justify the interception of American goods destined to neutral Ruro- Pean ports. If British exports to those ports should be still further Increased it n of the intentions of the Brit- ish government. Desiring to avold com- troversy and in the expectation that the administration of the Order in Counell would conform to the established rules international law, this government bhas untll now reserved the question of the actual valldity of the Order in Coun- el of March 11, insofar as It is con- sidered by the government of Great Brit- ain to establish a blockade within the THE BEE: enemies, or elee that it fs doubhtrul as to | the legality of the form of blockade wilch | it has sought to maintain. 2. Declsions are cited to show that it | Is an essential principle, universally ao- cented, that a blockade must apply im- partially to the ships of all nations, and It s added that “if belligerents them- | selves trade with blockaded ports” the principle in the past has been tnat they cannot be regarded as effe tually block- | ed. These decisions are referred to| “since it is & mattér of common knowl- | edge that Great Britain exports and re- | exports large quantities of merchandise | to Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Hol Iand, whose ports, so far as American commerce is concerned, It regards as blockaded.” Principles Discussed, 21. The principles of the laws of nations [which forbid the blockade of neutral |ports in time of war, embodied in that part of the declaration of London adopted {by Great Britain as to the blockade, arc | discussed and severai decisions of the British prize courts prior to the present war, as well as the Matamoras cases in {the American civil war, are recalled to support the cohtention of the United States. 22, Measured by “the three universally conceded tests the present British meas- ures cannot be regarded as constituting a blockade, in law, in practice, or in ef- foct.” 4. Formal notice Is given that the “‘blockade” which Great Britain olaims to have instituted under the Order-in-Couneil ot March 11 cannot be recognized as a legal blockade by the United States.” 2. The British view of the famous Springbok case, before the outbreak of the present war, is cited to support the Amerjcan contentions. 4 Modes of Redress. % to 88 Inclusively. These deal ex- haustively with the modes of judicial redress for citizens of neutral countries, and reach ocertaln general conclusions. ‘“The government of the United Btates," the note says, “has viewed with surprise and concern the attempt of his majesty’s government to confer upon the British prize courts jurisdiction by this illegal ex- ercise of force in order that these courts may apply to vessels and cargoes of neutral nationalities, seized on the high #oas, municipal laws and orders which can only rightfully be enforcible within torritorial waters of Great Britatn or Against vessels of British nationality when on the high seas. * * * ¢ ¢ The United Btates government feels that it cannot reasonably be expeoted to adviee its citizens to seek redress before tribu- pals which are, in its opinfon, unauthor- ised by the unrestricted application of international law to grant reparation, rior to refraln from presenting their clatms directly to the British government through diplomatic channels.” ARREST-APE-MAN IN INDIANAPOLIS AFTER , GUN FIGRT (Continued from Page One.)

Other Intimate details of Hauser, so far 4s can be learned at present, are that He is 3 years old, is a teamster, when he works, and was born in a small Kansas town. He was sentenced to the pent- tentiary at Lansing for assault upon a small girl, but a pardon board soon set him at liberty. He next bobbed up in the Colorado state penitentiary, convicted of & crime of similar nature, in addition to committing a highway robbery. Escapes from Prison. He %scaped from the Uelorado prisom, and soon after his escape he made known his presence in the different cities by his nightly ralds upon women pedestrians. In the different cities he has been eharacterized by the epithets. ‘“The Wolt” and “The Ape Man" and other similar appelations. His characteristics were thoss of a wild, terrible, blood- thirsty animal. He ravished women with- out pity and laughed scornfully when his innocent girl vietims pleaded to be given @eath rather than dishonor.

Food Commissioner Wins New Victory (From a Staft Correspondent|) LINCOLN, Nov. 7. — (Special.)—Food Commissioner Harman has won another victory in his fight for pure foods and Pude medicines. This time his fight was to compel manufacturers of patent medi- cines, who desired to dispose of thelr wares in this state, to brand them as they should be. A Philadeiphia firm has been selling catarrh remedy, which was called “Ostarrh Cure.” Commisioner Harman contended that It was not a cure and iherefore had no right to the name.

LINCOLN, Nov, 7.~(Special.)—~What | would be the outcome of the presiden- | tidl campaign in 1916 if the Improbable | should come to pass and Theodore Roose- velt and Willlam Jennings Bryan should Join forces, one as a candidate for presi- dent and the other as vice president on the same ticket? i This was a question discussed by a | number of men Interested In the poli- tical situation in the lobby of the Lin- dell hotel In Lincoln Saturday “That is a condition which could never come to pass,’ ‘sald an influential demo- crat, who s opposing the grape’ juice | anties of his fellow democrat, Mr. Bryan. | “It is impossible,” sald he, “just because | neither Mr. Bryan or Mr. Roosevelt would | take second place on any ticket. Neither one of them would take anything else | but the first place, and so there s no | use to discuss that proposition.” Proposes to Win. “Well, 1 don't know about that,” another democrat, living outside of the state. “Mr. Bryan is getting pretty des- perate. He has cart his lot against the | president and when a man like Bryan | takes a stand of that kind, it simply | shbws that he proposes to win his fight it he busts his party In doing it. Mr. | Bryan has got to that point In his career, where he must come out on top or he wil be a dead duck, and if he could make any political allignment which ‘would help him, I am of the opinlon that he would even go %o far as to join with Mr. Roosevelt In an effort to kill off both the old parties. In fact it would not surpiee me a bit If he should try to pull off something of that kind." “Well," sald a republican, “you may not be far out of the way. Stil, I am inclined to belleve that there will be nothing like that. I have always been of the opinion that Mr. Bryan would never consent to play second fiddle to anybody, but the fact does remain that he took & place In the president's cabinet, when all the time he has had an em- bitlon to be president. That he had an object in taking a .subordinate position, I belloved at that time and I also be- feve that it was his intention at that time to pull away from the president, ‘When the opportunity became ripe. Mr. Bryan does things just at a time when bé can get the most and greatest public- ity. Publicity s food and dring to him, and without it he would be the most miserable man in the world. I belleve he has lost out with his own party and I really think he believes it and he might, if he thought he could get the assistance of Mr. Roosevelt, pull off just such a thing. It would give him piblic- ity of a new kind, and that is the kind he likes." Where HiteR Womld Be. “But the hitch in that kind of a pro- gram might come from Colonel Roose- veit,” sald a republican, who has always been a follower of the colonel. “I agree with you there,” answered the other, “but it must become evident to Mr. Roosevelt that he ocan expect nothing in the way of future suc from the progressive party. The ne::: elections should convince any man [of that. Mr. Roosevelt can hardly be #x- pected to go back to the repulicans, and aa he, like Mr, Bryan, loves publicity and appears to thrive on it, he might for the sake of defeating the party aln, which he was responsible for defeating in 1913, line up with Mr. Bryan for no other reason than to keep that party from winning in 1916, which to me ap- pears to be a foregone conclusion under present conditions. The progressive party cannot hope to become much of a factor in the 1916 campaign and with these two men apparently working for the same object, that of punishing mem- bers of their own party, even at a sacri- fice of defeat, might join hands to ac- complish that object in hopes that by their united efforts they might be ahle to win themselves.” Thinks it Possible. “By oracky,” exclaimed a man, who had been standing by listening. ‘“You fellows may have been drinking a kind of liquid refreshments that make you #see farther than I can, but there has many stranger things happened in poli- tics in the history of this country, and 1 for one am willing to admit that you have set me to thinking, What a sen- sation a tle-up between Bryan and Roose- velt would create, 1 don't like to think about it, for the more I do the more it looks possible, when one takes everything into consideration and the temperment of the two men.” Luff Will Have His Hearing Wednesday AURORA, Neb., Nov. 7.—(8pecial.)—Not in many years has interest in Hamilton county attached to an assault case as it has in the Nelson-Luff case, near Mar- quette. Few men and no women in the eounty are without expressed opinions as to the gullt or innocence of Fred Laff, who is charged with the assault of Nels Nelson. Luff's preliminary hearing takes place before the county judge next Wednesday, and it seems probable that the court room will be packed with Danes and Swedes from Kronberg and Marquette. Luff is & Dane and Nelson is a Swede. Miss Mary Peterson of Marquette will probably be the principal witness for the state. She is the young woman who was being courted by both Luff and Nelson. She 1a reported to have told the officlals that Luff had made threats against Nel- son in her presence. ‘When Luff was shot in the back of the head & few nights later, the theory was advanced that both Nelson and Lauff had been the victims of some one of the nu- merous admirers of the young woman. sald | Stella News Noteo. STELLA, Neb., Nov. 7.—~Two crews of workmen are at Nemaha on the Mis- souri river morthesat of Stella cutting willows on the sandbars for the govern- ment. A number of Nemaha citizens have avalled themselves of the oppor- tunity to make a little extra money by entering the services of Uncle Sam. The willows are being loaded onto barges and towed down the river, to the viclnity of Kansas City, where they are used as riprapping in the work of con- trolling the river and conserving the lsnd along the shore. Two steamers with barges loaded with the willows left Nemaha for Kansas City this week. A camp barge with cooking, eating and sleeping quarters is moved to the shore near the work.

AMERICA WON'T SUBMIT TO SEA LAW OF BRITAIN (Continued from Page One.) rights by these measures, which are ad- mittedly retaliatory, and therefore illegal, in conception and in nature, and intended to punish the enemies of Great Britain | for alleged illegalitics on their part. The United States might not be in & position to object to them if its interests and the interests of all neutrals were unaffected by them, but, being affected, it cannot with complacence suffer further subordi- nation of its rights and interasts to ihe plea that the exceptional geographic pos tion of the enemies of Great Brituin re- | quires or justifies oppressive and fllegal | practices. Law Mast He Observed. “The government of the United States desires, therefore, to impress most earn- estly upon his majesty's government that it must insist that the relations between its and his majesty's government be gov- erned, not by a policy of expediency, but by those established rules of ‘ntirnational conduct upon which Great Biitaln in the past has held the United States to ace count when the latter nation was a bel- |ligerent engaged In a struggle for na- tlonal existence. It is of the highest tm- portance to neutrals, not only of the pres- ent day, but of the future, that the prin- ciples of International right be maintained unimpaired. ““This task of champloning the Integrity of neutral rights, which have received the sanction of the civilized world against the lawless conduct of belligerents aris- ing out of the bitterness of the great con- fliet which is now wasting the ‘countries of Europe, the United States unhesitat- ingly assumes, and to the accomplishment of that task it will devote its energies, exercising always that impartiaiity which from the outbreak of the war it has sought to exercise in its relations with the warring nationa.” Note Dated October 21. The note is dated October 21, and ack- nowledges the notes of the British gov- ernment dated January 7, February 10, June 22, July 23, July 81 (two), August 13, and a note verbale of the British embassy of August 6, all of which re- late to restrictions upon American com- merce. The United States says at the outset that it has delayed answering these notes in the hope that the an- nounced purpose of Great Britan “to ex- ercise their belligerent right with every possible consideration for the interests of neutrals,” and of causing “‘the least possible amount of inconvenience to per- sons engaged in legitimate trade,” would in practice not unjustifiably infringe upon the neutral rights of American citisens. “It is therefore a matter of regret.” says the note, “that this hope has not been realized, but that on the contrary, Interferences with American ships and cargoes destined in good faith to neutral ports and lawfully entitied to proceed have become increasingly vexatious, caus- ing American ship owners and American merchants to complain to this govern- ment o the fallure to take steps to pre- vent an exercise of belligerent powar in contravention of their just rights. May Go to Extreme. “‘As the measures complained of proceed directly from orders issued by the British government; are executed by British au- ‘thorities and arouse a reasonable appre- hension that, if not resisted, they may be carried to an extent even more injurious to American interests, this government directs the attention of his majesty's government to the following considera- tions:" Secretary Lansing, in discussing the question of compensation, denies that the charges, such as pllotage, wharfage, un- loading ocosts, etc., agalnst a detained wessel must be pald by the claimants, and adds that the United States is “loathe to belleve that such ungenerous treat- ment will continue to be accorded Ameri- can citizens,’ any walvers of indemnity exacted from American citizens ‘‘under such conditions of duress,” it is declared, cannot preclude them from subsequently obtaining redress through diplomatic channels.
