;, U.S. Will Inquire of
Germany How Subsea
Commander Punished
Washington. ' July 1. The State
department is preparing to make a
formal inauiry ot tne uerman gov
ernment as to what punishment was
inflirtcd unon the submarine com'
mander who torpedoed the channel
steamer Sussex. An informal in-
ouirv through Ambessador Gerard
ha brought no resoonse.
1 In admitting that the Sussex was
attacked by mistake, uermany an
nounced that the submarine com'
. mander had been "appropriately pun
ished" and promised reparation. Then
followed the exchanse of notes which
resulted in the abandonment of what
the United States denounced 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
v.with, but no steps toward tmal dis
: oosition of the case were taken pend
I mg a demonstration by time that' the
J promise of a change in practices
would be carried out.
Britons Use Million

day of the British bombardment of

1 wire entanglements, demolishing first
and second lines of German trenches
and raining curtains of fire on the
roada and communicating trencnet.
Considerably more than a million of
shells a day are being expended, and
there seems to be no limit to the'sup
ply of them. British infantry actions
have been limited thus far to raids
under cover of . artillery and trench
mortar fire. The new type of British
mortar it capable of such rapid fire
that it can place six shots in the air

serviceable, both in cutting of wire
and the smashing ot trenches.
Last night the sky from twenty to
thirty miles to the rear toward the
Mit 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.

"General Chibo," are seizing every
thing they can find in the war-devastated

WILL Sma CAMPAIGN SONGS
"Take out thatmarriage license and
you'll never darken the doors of our
home again I Leave it, and you can
come back I"
That was the ultimatum Charles
H. Mullen faced his deaf mute son,
Robert, yesterday in the marriage
license clerk's office.
Young Mullen, who is 26 years old,
is assistant to Louis Bostwick, pho
tographer. The marriage license clerk had al
ready made out the necessary paper,
naming Miss Edith L. Davis, also a
mute, as the bride.
Mullen thought for a moment and
lrnU.fl at his father, as the latter
stood trembling, waiting for his an
swer.
The voune fellow did not answer,
Instead, he reached into his pocket
and produced $2, which he tossed to
the clerk as he picked up tne license
and walked away, without even look
ing at his parent.

sion in the smoking car of Southern
Pacific train No. '5 on its arrival here
from Ogden, Utah, blew a big hole
in the steel roof and caused slight in
juries to eight passengers.
F. T. Marquis of San Francisco,
who was in the car, said there was a
distinct odor of burned gunpowder

roofing of the car was blown high in
the air and fell more than 100 feet
from where the train was standing.

German Submarine
At Baltimore Under
Chesapeake Waters
New York, July 1. The Trans
Atlantic Trust company of this city,
which has been recognized here as an
unofficial financial agent of the Aus
trian and German governments, an
nounced today in a half-page adver
tisement in the Hungarian Daily
Amerikai Magyar Nepszava that the
German submarine so frequently re
ported as being on the way here from
Hamburg reached Baltimore Thurs
day doming, and is now concealed
somewhere nearby, presumably under
the waters of Chesapeake bay.
The advertisement says the subma
rine will leave for Europe with
money orders for Germany and
Austria.
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 nave all
the candidates for federal, state and
county offices invited to the meeting,
which will be in the nature of a recep
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
publican league, of which John Hays
Hammond is president.
It will be ot interest to Omaha peo
ple to know that Mr. Hammond, who
is 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
affair's so that he could speak here
before the McKinley club later in the
campaign.

rels, which, though leas than tbe amount

Tardy Ones Try to Slip
Under the Wire.
HALF MILLION IN ONE DAY
The city and county treasurer's
office was swamped with humanity
yesterday. It was the last day to pay
taxes before the expiration of the
period before delinquency, and own
ers of property were eager to avoid
paying an additional 10 per cent for
being late.

city, county and water amounted to
$573,951.95. Disbursements to city
and school, county and Water board
amounted to $757,09276, making the
total business for the day amount to
$1,331,054.71.
On account of the big crowd the
office remained open all day Satur
day, instead of closing at noon, as is
the custom.
