MANIFESTO'S PROVISIONS Berlin, Nov. 18.—(By Wireless to Sayville.)—General von Beseler, gov- ernor-general of Russian Poland, has issued an order at Warsaw in regard to the organization of a Jewish re- ligious body in Poland, by which self- government is given to the Polish Jews. “Under Russian rule the Jews in Poland, as in all Russia, lived almost without a religious organization, says the Overseas News agency, in describing the new order. The hostil- ity of the Russian authorities against the Jews found expression in well known laws and in yninterrupted per- secutions and oppression of the Jew- ish cnmmur.\it_v, as well as in the fact that a religious body to which 14 per cent of the population of Poland be- longs was deprived of all uniform or- ganizations. Only the formation of organizations of isolated parishes was allowed, and the union of parishes into a larger organization was forbid- den, says the news agency. The Present Order. “By the present order of the gov- ernor-general, the members of the Jewish church are reorganized as a religious body, according to public right. Local Jewish communities in the counties, according to the new order, are united to county organiza- tions. The heads of these county or- ganizations are administrative coun- cils, which are made up from the boards of the smaller communities and selected according to the princi- ples of proportional representation. “The administrative council will be composed of eleven members, of whom three must be rabbis. At the head of the Jewish religious body will be a supreme Jewish countil, provisionally composed according to proportional representation. The supreme council, according to the order, has twenty- one members, of whom fourteen mus: be laymen and seven rabbis. Managed by Board. “The local communities will be ad- ministered through a board elected by the citizens of the Jewish parish under majority rule. This board will have four members in addition to the rab- bis. For" the largest local communi- ties a special organization has been provided. This will be under the rule of an assembly of parish delegates, which will have parliamentary func- tions, and of an administrative council, which will have administrative func- tions. The' election of parish dele- gates will be according to the propor- tional system and in two sections. Each section will elect the same num- ber of delegates. Peoples without a school education, those who have at- tended a special trade or agricultural school, and Jewish citizens, who, on account of their knowledge of Jewish literature, have received the title of rabbi, will vote in the first section. All other classes will vote in the second section. The parish delegates also will have a part in the administrative council. Allowed to Organize. “The formation of associations for divine service will be allowcd in every community, Thus a guarantee is given that no religious tendency can be suppressed by the majority. To the community willybe entrusted the re- ligious life and education of the young, charity and social work. The local communities, the county communities and the general religious body, as represented by the supreme council, will have the right to levy taxes and will possess the privileges of incor- porated public corporations.” The order also contains detailed regulations concerning the rabbis. “'I:he Jews inAPu'Iand,’ by this order, receive a constitution superior to the majority of the antiquated constitu- tions of other European countries. There is no doubt that this constitu- tion will prove beneficial to the Jews in Poland. Of extremely valuable im- portance is the possibility of uniform superintendence through a supreme council. The constitution attempts the creation of religious life, based on freedom of conscience. Although there are differences of opinion among the Jews, nevertheless the new order should bring unity in place of the present lack or organization. ’ Task of Council. “The task of the supreme council will be, above all, the reform of the institution of rabbi, through provid- ing good conditions. Similar in in- tent also is the proposed promotion of a Jewish school system, especially by the construction of special schools in which the leading .Jews of Poland can press on bravely toward a better future. The Russian plutocra.ic elec- toral system in certain communities is abolished and the electoral rights of large communities are recognized. “Jewish circles in Poland receive the new order enthusiastically. All parties among the Jews consider it very important that the Jewish com- munity now is regarded as a religions b(tiy, according to public right, and that the possibility now exists toward the different departments of Jewish life, through the means of well-con- ducted self-governing bodies. The war has brought unspeakable misery to the eastern Jews, but on the other hand, it has brought this new constitution, which is of the highest importance to their future.” Chihuahua City to “Hunt Down" Villa El Paso, Tex., Nov. 18.—Late this afternoon an official statement from Chihuahua City reached the border, conveying General Trevino's an- nouncement that he himself was tak- ing the field against Villa and the vanguard of his troops had gone to Santa Rosalia, which is to be the base of operations. General Gonzales Cuellar will take charge in the Chi- huahna capital it was announced, General Trevino’s announcement that he would take the field against Villa in person at the head of his division, caused much surprise and considerable alarm here among Amer- icans and Mexicans who have in- terests in Chihuahua City. They say the departure of General Trevino and his forces from Chihuahua City leav- ing only a small force to defend the city, is practically an evacuation of ie state capital 1916. HUGHES REGAINS MINNESOTA LEAD Wilson Creeps Up on Rival When Mistake Is Made, But Later Loses It. NO CHANGE IN CALIFORNIA St. Paul, Minn, Nov. 18.—A mis- taken in the tabulation of the Minne- sota votes in the presidential race early today. by which President Wil- son was placed within less than a hundred votes of Mr. Hughes, was discovered this afternoon. The lead is changed again to Mr. Hughes' fa- vor by 414 votes. Wilson Gains in New Mexico. Santa Fe, N. M., Nov 18 —While Charles I5. Hughes was gaining fifty- one votes today, on official returns from five counties in New Mexico, President Wilson was recewing an increase of 234, bringing his lead back to a point well above its mark Wed- nesday, when he lost 185 votes. He gained 138 yesterday. No precincts which had not reported previously were represented in the reports today, fourteen still remaining to be heard from. The totals stand: Hughes, 29,951; Wilson, 32,077, Little Change in California, Sacramenta, Cal,, Nov. 18.—Thirty- three California counties out of fifty- eight have filed their election returns today with Secretary of State Frank C. Jordan, for final and official can- vass. A staff of twenty-five experts are at work on the returns and have completed the count of six of the smaller counties. The work, accord- ing to:law, must be finished on Mon- day, November 27. Plans announced carly today for continuing the count night and day were abandoned tem- porarily tonight, when it was found impossible to secure enough skilled workers to handle the returns. No important discrepancies have been dis- covered in the counties thus far com- pleted. Indian Reservation In Alaska Is Now Po_re_st Reserve (Corraspondence of The Associated Preem.) Washington, Nov. 12—The old Kassan national monument, consist- ing of thirty-eight acres within the Tongass national forest, Alaska, has been created by residential procla- mation as a result of recommenda- tions made by the secretary of agri- culture. The tract embraces the abandoned Haida Indian village of Old Kassan, situated on Prince of Wales island, in southeastern Alaska, about thirty miles west of Ketchikan. The village was abandoned by the Indians about ten years ago. Among the relics which remain there are about fifty Indian totem poles, five or six of which are classed as exceeding- ly good specimens. In the deserted village, there are also eight large square buildings which were original- ly constructed according to the pe- culiar plan of the Haida Indians, and which, it is stated by those best qual- ified know, represent the best spec- imens of Haida architecture that now exist. The largest of these buildings is approximately forty by sixty feet in size and is made entirely of round and carved timbers. There also re- main a number of Indian graves, with the typical small grave houses erected by the Alaskan Indians. Since the village was abandoned by the Indians the buildings have been rapidly falling into a state of delapi- dation and decay, and a certain amount of vandalism by tourists and souvenir hunters renders some form of protection essential. An examina- tion of the area was made jointly by representatives of the forest service and of the Interior department, and reports strongly urging the establish- ment of a national monument were approved by the secrctaries of both departments. The Smithsonian insti- tution strongly endorsed the propo- sition for the establishment of a na- tional monument. The new national monument will be protected and ad- ministered by the forest service, as is “the case with all monuments lo- cated within the national forests. i Al Nt Evade the Law by Putting Fish Into the Butter (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) Berlin, Nov. 10.—The authorities have discovered a clever, though sim- ple, method of getting around maxi- mum prices for butter and the general prohibition of selling it in more than quarter pound lots, It consists of “buttered herring,” consisting of one very small, thin herring, encased in about a pound of butter, which has been selling on the Berlin market for some 9 marks a pound. Before the authorities discovered the ruse dealers who had managed to get both fish and butter from Den- mark and elsewhere had succeeded in disposing of hundreds of pounds. Many customers bought in twenty, fifty and 100-pound lots, gladly pay- ing the extraordinary price or any price for the chance to get butter again, even though most of them threw away the tiny fish, and with it lost some little of the butter that clung to its skinny sides. Lee Axworthy Will Be Sent to Kentucky Farm Lee Axworthy wound up his turf career by pulling a wagon with one of his owners, H. K. Devereaux, driv- ing, in 2:02y. The announcement of Devereaux, Frank Ellis, Coburn Has- kell and P. W. Harvey that the track days of the champion were over was a surprise. Lee is only 5 years of age. His owners decided he had gained all the honors possible by trotting 234 seconds faster than any other stallion. Lee will go to Castleton farm, where The Harvester and Bingen made their hores while in Kentucky. Lutheran Synodical League In Convention at Wahoo Wahoo, Neb., Nov. 18.—Many dele- gates and visitors from diffrent parts of the United States are here for the national convention of the Lutheran Synodical league, which began today and will continue over Sunday. Dr. Frank Nelson, president of Minnesota college, Minneapolis, who is also pres- ident of the league, delivered the con- vention address this evening. The convention marks the 400th anniver- sary of the Lutheran church. 5—D Council Bluffs ALDERMEN MEET“%E LIGHT COMPANY MEN Trying to Fine Cause of Delay in the Matter of Making New Contract. THREE SYSTEMS PROPOSED Chairman Williams of the fire and light committee of the city council, and Aldermen Olson and Clawson held a conference yesterday afternoon with Manager English and Charles Hansen of the Citizens' Gas and Elec- tric Light company. The conference was brought about by the comment being made upon the delay in making the new contract, which, since the elimination of the royalty, is costing the city heavily for street lighting and preventing the pri- vate consumers getting the 25 per cent reduction provided for by the pro- posed new contract, The delay is not attributabte to the members of the council. A majority of them have favored the acceptance of the contract offered by Manager English, and the fire and light com- mittee has been ready to unanimously recommend it. The delay has been due entirely to a desire to change the lighting system and substitute 400- candle power incandescents strung on pedestals 100 feet apart on both sides of the streets for the present 5000- candle power flaming arcs in the busi- ness section of the city. This would cost nearly $5,000 more than the tax levy, now up to its limit, will bring in, and to make such a thing possible the council has been urged by the Cham- ber of Commerce committee to dis- continue all of the flaming arcs on Broadway west of the Illinois Central railroad and at the south end of Mamn street and put little 400-candle power incandescents in their place, thereby saving one-half the cost of the big arcs. Installs Three Lights. To show just what would be the re- sult of this change, Manager English installed three of the 400-candle power lights on West Broadway without dis- turbing the flaming ares. The lights w';rc then alternately turned on and off. The test was made Thursday night in the presence of members of the council and Chairman Wallace and members of his committee, while sev- eral hundred interested West Enders looked on, The contrast between the large and small lights was so great that all agreed the experiment could not be tried. The test was discussed at the committee meeting yesterday afternoon and the decision reached that the change would not be made. It was the sentiment of the light committee that there should be no more delay in accepting the contract submitted by Manager English. It will save the city nearly $2,000 an- nually on the street lighting bill and save the small consumer 25 per cent of the amount of his monthly bill if his bill ranges even between g() cents and $2 a month. This is the first con- tract ever offered the city where the greatest benefit reaches the small con- sumer, The tax levy for the street lighting fund produces about $21,000. a year and expenditures cannot go beyond that without somebody getting in jail. Three propositions were submitted yesterday afternoon, the first contin- uing the present lighting system, in- creasing the number of lights, but still keeping the cost within the safe limit, the other two contemplating the pedestal two-light system, but forcing the cost away beyond the danger line. Following are the three: First Proposed Lighting System. 38 flaming arc lamps, underground system, at $62.26 § 2,365.50 46 flaming ., overhead »; 67.25 2,676.26 7 400 ¢, p. | common arc 1.00 899, 60 ¢, p. la 18.00 ...................... $10,642.76 Total This will allow for three extra flaming arc lamps, and seventy-nine more 60 candle power lamps for resi- dence districts, at a cost of $1,450.75, making a total cost of $20,993.50.

BELGIANS DEPORTED BY THE THOUSANDS In Many Places All Males Over 17 Summoned to Appear Before Authorities, WOMEN STORM THE TRAINS Tha Hague (Via London), Nov. 18. —T4e number of Belgians deported by the Germans up to date, according to information given the Associated Press today from a reliable source, apparently is between 30,000 and 40,000, and they are being deported at the rate of about 2,000 daily. Antwerp, it was said, has been com- manded to furnish 27,000, which prob- ably is not more than 10 per cent of its able-bodied population, but the commune of Lessines lLas lost more than 7,000, representing virtually ev- ery able-bodied man, excepting offi- clals People Terrorized. The entire Belgian population, the narrator said, is terrorized because the people realize they are entirely helpless. Crowds of hysterical wom+ en and children gather at the railway and recruiting stations, and many women at gamappcs threw themselves on the rails to prevent the departure of a train of emigrants and had to be forcibly removed by German soldiers. The men are frequently loaded into cattle cars and spend one or two days on the journey. They are strongly determined to refuse to work, believ- ing that if they are not employed in military works, they will be compelled to replace Germans and be forced to work directly or indirectl ‘gainn! the Belgian army and its allies. The Aeportefi men, in trains passing through Liege, are declared to have been heard singing the Marseillaise and other patriotic airs, Tied to Posts, The newspaper repcrts a case near Vallencienes of sixty Frenchmen, who, impressed by the Germans, refused to work and are declared to have been tied to posts for forty-eight hours until hal} of them fainted from hard- ships and hunger. Many prominent Belgians are re. ported not to have hesitated to ris! their liberty by the strongest of pro- tests to the German authorities against the deportations. Various official bodies have drafted resolutions of pro- test and the senators and deputies of Antwerp and Hainault provinces have taken especially strong action in the premises and are said to be daily ex- pecting deportation. Neutrals in Belgium, especially the ministers, are receiving many appeals to try and induce their governments to intervene. The newspaper La Libre Belgique, which has maintained a wide circulation throughout Belfiium for more than a year, despite the efforts of the Germans to discover its authors and sqprrcss the shegt, has published a special number contaming an appeal to the neutral nations. Must Bring Books. The officers deputed for the enroll- ment of the workmen are said to pay visits to various towns and order the assembly at the railwav stations of virtually all males, under heavy penal. ties for refusal to comply. The word- ing of the notices varies in the differ- ent sections of Belgium and northern France. One notice posted in north- ern France gives assurances that the men will not be employed under con- tinuous fire. The Antwerp order noti- fies students to bring their books and musicians their instruments. The au- thorities promise the men good wages and liberty to remit money from Ger- many to their families in Belgium. All of them are offered an opportunity to sign a voluntary agreement to work. T eg are informed, it was stated, that if they refuse to sign they will be treated worse, but vimully.lll refuse to do so. Unfit Eliminated. Wherever the males assemble for deportation doctors examine them and the physically unfit are eliminated, to- gether with municipal and relief offi- cials. Those without regular employ- ment are the first selected for deporta- tion, . The principal object of the deporta- tions, it was said, appears to be to se- cure skilled workers. Men regularly employed have been enrolledz from several communes. A large number was taken at Jamappes from factories which were running and were self- supporting, and bank employes were impressed at Mons, espite the statements credited to German officers that the deported men will not be employed in military work, the Belgians are declared to fear the contrary, as it has been re- ported that large bodies of men have been taken to northern France and employed in cutting timbers for trenches and that others in northern Belgium have been forced to dig trenches, ‘Want 300,000. London, Nov. 17.—Thirty thousand Belgians already have been deported to Germany, according to information received here through official . chan- nels. Reports from the same source say the Germans plan to take some 300,000, judged from the order issued in a number of cities for all males over 17 to report for inspection. The municipal council of Tournai has formally declined to accede to the German demands, the reports say, protesting that hitherto it had acquiesced to all German orders. General Hopffer thereupon imposed a fine of 200,000 marks, it is added, for the refusal of the council to fur- nish a list of male inhabitants, with a further fine of 20,000 marks daily as long as the council refused to give the list. : All Over 17, Summoned. A circumstantial report from the Mons district says that the en- tire male population over 17, was summoned to report at German head- quarters at 8 o'clock on the morning of October 26. The priests, profes- sors, teachers local officials, members of the food committee, and the physi- cally defective were dismissed, but, it 1s added, 1,200 men, composing 20 per cent of the eligible males, both employed and unemployed, were selected and immediatley placed on cattle trucks and started for Germany. Being ignorant of the purpose of the summons, the men had assembled without clothing for traveling and without food, and relatives who hur- ried to the station with food and clothing were refused access to the men, the reports add.
