Will Inquire of @ermany How Subsea Commander Punished Washington, July 1.—The State department is preparing to make a formal inqliry of the German gov- ernment as to what punishment was inflicted upon the submarine com- mander who torpedoed the channel steamer Sussex. An informal in- quiry through Ambessador Gerard has Longht no response. In admitting that the Sussex was attacked by mistake, Germany an- nounced that the submarine com- mander had been “lpproprinely_fiun' ished” and promised reparation. Then followed the exchange of notes which resulted in the abandonment of what the United States dengunced as il- legal and inhuman methods of sub- marine warfare. Mr, Gerard was instructed to ask informally how the officer responsible for the Sussex tragedy had been dealt _.with, but no steps toward final dis- osition of the case were taken pend- ing a demonstration by time that: the promise of a change in practices would be carried out, Britons Use Million Shells Each Day British Headquarters in France (Via London), ?uly 1.—The fourth day of the British bombardment of the German position sees no lessening of the volume of fire, which continues along the whole line without cessa- tion day and night, cutting barbed wire entanglements, demolishing first and second lines of German trenches and raining curtains of fire on the roads and communicating trencnes, Considerably more than a million of shells a day are beinf expended, and there seems to be no limit to the'sup- ly of them. British infantry actions Enve been limited thus far to raids ~under cover of .artillery and trench mortar fire. The new type of British mortar is capable of such rapid fire that it can place six shots in the air at once, which have proved highly nerviceai)le, both in cutting of wire and the smashing of trenches. Last night the sky from twenty to thirty miles to the rear toward the east was brilliant, as if with the glare of the aurora borealis, from dusk to dawn. This was the only illumina- tion along the roads for the movement of troops and automobiles, none of which carried lights. Moto! Driver Injured As Wheel Strikes Ambulance Patrick Williams, 1516 North Sev- enteenth street, was severely bruised and shaken up, and his left ankle suffered a compound fracture when Je drove his motorcycle out from be- hind a street car at the corner of Sey- enteenth and Cass streets about 5:30 yesterday afternoon and collided with a Brailey & Dorrance automobile driven by W, H.

A new bandit leader who calls himself “General Chibo,” Chibo meaning goat, has arisen and is terror- izing the territory inland from the west coast, the refugees said. He calls his coml)nny of bandits chibetas, which means little goats, who, led by their “General Chibo,” are seizing every- thing they can find in the war-devas- tated territory. James Montgomery, 90 years old, arrived destitute, but his pity was not for himself, but for twenty pigs he left be.l:iind. “They will starve now,” he said, Mexicans Seize Half Million in Bullion From the Americans| Washington, July 1.—The State department was officially advised to- day that gold and silver bullion belong- ing to Americans and seized by local Mexican authorities at Manzillo to- taled nearly $500,000.

WILL SING CAMPAIGN SONGS The McKinley club is preparing for a big ratification meeting to be held at the Hotel Rome in the next few weeks. It may be that some speaker of national prominence will be pres- ent, although it is likely that just Ne- braska men will be asked to speak. A novel feature of the affair will be some original campaign songs, and, especially, one dedicated to Mr. Hughes by a quartet which is being organized by Joe Marrow, bailiff in the district court. It is the purpose of the committee in charge to have all the candidates for federal, state and county offices invited to the meeting, which will be in the nature of a reccfi)- tion, as well as a ratification for the nominees of the party. The McKinley club is preparing to organize Hughes and Fairbanks clubs throughout the city and state, working in connection with the National Re- E:hlican league, of which John Hays ammond is president. It will be of interest to Omaha peo- ple to know that Mr. Hammond, who 18 now one of the most famous min- |ing engineers in the world, started |in the business at the Omaha smelter several years ago. Talking with Mr. Byrne, president of the McKinley club, at the national republican con- vention in Chicago a few weeks ago, Mr. Hammond remarked this fact, stating that he had a very warm spot in his heart for Omaha. Mr. Ham- mond promised to try to arrange his affaifs so that he could speak here before the McKinley club later in the campaign.

I TODAY'S BEAUTY TALK I You can make a delightful shampoo with very little effort and for a very trifling cost, if you get from your druggist a package of canthrox and dissolve a teaspoonful in & cup of hot water. Your shampoo is now ready. Just pour a little at a time on the scalp and rub briskly. This creates an abund- ance of thick, white lather that thoroughly dissolves and removes the dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After rinsing, the hair dries quickly, with a fluffiness that makes it seem heavier than it is, and takes on a rich luster and a softness that makes arranging it a pleasure.—Advertisement.
