NOTE TO SWEDEN

? Hearing Acute Stage. v, ,'
I SWEDEN , SEIZES COrrEE
1 aris, Sept 15. The French gov
ernment has instructed the minister
at Stockholm to join with the other
entente ministers in presenting a
friendly but firm note to Sweden in
regard to its policy of neutrality. The
note takes issue with the position of
Sweden in distinguishing between
submarines for war and those for
commerce, which the French govern
ment affirms has "an effect contrary
to neutrality", since the Swedish
naval forces would hesitate to attack
a German submarine in Swedish wa
ters under the pretext that it might
be a commercial submarine, where
as there would be no similar hesita
tion in dealing with a submarine of
the allies because they have no com
mercial submarines. .' r'
' Sweden Seizes Coffee.
Berlin, Sept. 15. (By Wireless to
Sayville.) A Stockholm dispatch to
the Overseas News agency says that
Sweden has held up 10,000 tons of
coffee destined for Finland, presu
mably on account of the fact that.
Great Britain has detained shipments
of 'Coffee for Sweden. As a result
there is great scarcity of coffee in
Finland. i . .

Great Britain and Sweden i have
; been at odds since the early period
'. of the war, and Sweden's unyielding
I attitude evidently has resulted in a
.decision to exert the combined pres
sure of all the entente allies on it.
Difficulties arose from the allied
blockade of Germany, resulting in
the hold up of goods . en route to
. Sweden, which were suspected to be
destined for Germany. Sweden re
: taliated by holding up Urge quanti
ties of parcel post matter in transit
between England and Russia.
- This led to sn exchange of notes,
which accomplished nothing, and
early this month a deadlock, was
reached. Great Britain insisted as a
I e, ndition . to submitting the dispute
to arbitration that Sweden must
promise not to interfere again with
i English mail , matter. Sweden de
i clined and the Swedish minister- at
London went to the continent, to be
'.gone for; several weeks. Negotia
tions were transferred to Stockholm,
but the latest advices from London
. were that no solution' of the prob-
tern was in sight
Corn Crop is Not
j Damaged by the
Frost Thursday
I The first frost of the season visited
'Nebraska last night and generally it
was a killing one. However, with the
: exception of tomotoes, vines, some
1 late vegetables, little damage will re-
, Gardeners on the market this morn-
ing assert that up and down the river
; . from Omaha the frost was a freeie,
ice forming on still water. This was
. true all through the market garden
: section in and around Council Bluffs,
f The railroads report frost over
practically every section of Nebraska,
the coldest weather being at Belmont,
: on the Durltngton, well up toward the
. northwestern part of the state, where
; the temperature dropped to 24 de-
' grees above zero,
j Reports sent in to the railroads
2 during the morning all indicated that
the frost and freeze had not damaged
l any large proportion of the corn. Ex
... cept in a few instances corn was out
t of the way of frost several days u.

El Paso, Tex.. Sept. 15. Organiza
tion commanders of the National
guard troops on station here received
telegrams today from the Depart
. ment of War asking the number of
cars 'necessary to move their con
' ; tingents. '
While military men here assumed
that this indicated an early with-
drawal of the militia from the border
i it was pointed out thai maneuvers
have been planned for practically all
of the state troops in this district

Little Items About the
Progress of ilia Campaign.
Have vou heard from Maine?" is
the question appearing in big letters
on a campaign card being circulated
by the republican state committee. : .
Chairman Beach of the republican
state committee has been ' in every
city, town, village and hamlet in this
state during his business career as an
insurance man. It is said "Ed" knows
the state from Alpha to Omega.
The Doualas County Republican
league at its meeting Thursday un
qualifiedly endorsed Charles Evans
Hughes for president and John L.
Kennedy for senator. This is an as
sociation of north side colored voters.
Notwithstanding the embargo
which the war has levied, there have
been more importations of certain K
goods into this country, In competi
tion with our farmers, than there nave
been in a similar period during any
republican administration," stated
county Chairman noweii, speaking
for the county central committee.
When Charles E. Hughes became a
member of the supreme court of the
United States the Legislative Labor
News of New York printed the fol
lowing: "Now that Governor Hughes
has retired from politics and ascended
to a place on the highest judicial
tribunal in the world, the fact can be
acknowledged without hurting any
body's political corns, that he was
the greatest triend ot labor laws
that ever occupied the governor's
chair at . Albany, j During his
two terms he has signed tit-
ty-six labor ' laws, including among
inem inc ucsi laour laws ever cnacicu
in this or any other state. He also
urged the enactment of labor laws
in Ins messages to the legislature,
even going so far as to place the de
mand for a labor law in one of his
messages to an extra session of the
legislature."
Stole Clothing for Ten -
Years from Store to Bet
New York, Sept 15. Charged with
having stolen in ten years clothing
valued at between $50,000 and $75,000
from a firm that employed him,
George W. Simm, a salesman, accord
ing to Assistant District Attorney
Bohin confessed today that he had
sold the clothing at half the price and
lost most of the money in Wall street
speculations. Mr. Bohan said Simm
told him that clothing had been re
moved from the store in suit cases
before other employes came to work
in the morning.

MARCH IN TWO DIVISIONS
Scranton, Pa., Sept. 15. A meeting
of the Industrial . Workers of the
World in Old Forge . noon today
was raided by Sheriff Ben S. Phillips
with the aid of a dozen of his depu
ties and twenty state troopers, headed
by Lieutenant Price, and every man
in the hall, 318 in all, were arrested,
loaded Into vehicles of various kinds
and .aken to the Lackawanna county
jail, charged with riot The authori
ties had issued orders that the meet
ing was not to be held. There were
attempts to escape, but no serious
violence on the part of the prisoners.
For two week the 1. W. W. men
have been trying to tie up the Jermyn
company collieries.. The employes
are about evenly divided between the
I. W. W. and the United Mine
Workers. The latter would not join
in the strike and the 1. W. W. pickets
by assaults and various forms of in
timidation, it is alleged, have sought
to keep them away from the mines.
Sheriff Is Summoned.
There have been daily disturbances,
and finally the burgess, unable to cope
with the situation, summoned the
sheriff. The latter called in the state
troopers. The saloons were ordered
closed, meetings of the I. W. W. for
bidden and various other messures
taken to , prevent - trouble. Sheriff
Phillips got word yesterday that the
I. W. W. men planned a biz secret
meeting in Swartz hall at noon today.
and elaborate plans were made to
prevent it The prisoners were es
corted in squads from the halt and

by the sheriffs men as fast as they
hove in sight Then the march to the
county jail in this city was taken up
in two divisions, the galloping troop
ers guarding the faster moving motor
division and the deputies walking
alongside guarding the horse-drawn
vehicles. Joe Nozzi ind other alleged
leaders of the I. W. W. were among
those arrested.
i Placed Piv in Cell. .
The prisoners' were placed five in
a celL Not a weapon was found n
any of them. Sheriff Phillips will
decide tomorrow what to do with
them. Nearly all of the prisoners, are
of foreign birth. The Italian consul,
fortunato l iscar applied to the court
(or a habeas corpus for their release
and the court decided to conduct a
hearing on the motion next Saturday,
Jermyn & Co., stated that none of the
men arrested will ever be employed
again at their mines. '
t A paper setting torth that the In.
dustrtal Workers demand increased
wages for all classes of workers in
the mines, a full day when the collier
closes down because of accident and
the release of all Industrial Workers,
prisoners in Minnesota jails, was
found on one of the prisoners.

PLAN PRESIDENT'S
PART INCAMPAIGN
Wilson Confers With McAdoo,
Burleson and Tumulty as
to Own Activities. -
TO TAKE BABE OP HUGHES
Long Branch, N. J, Sept 15. The
part President Wilson is to take in
the campaign for his re-election was
discussed here today by the president
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo,
Postmaster General Burleson and
Secretary Tnmulty.
The plans will be put into final
shape at a meeting here Monday be
tween President Wilson, Vance Mc
Cormick, chairman of the democratic
national committee' and Homer S.
Cummings- head of the speakers'
bureau of the national committee.
To Get Views Before Nation,
The president will begin his "porch
campaign" at Shadow Lawn next
week. Although he has decided tp
make no speeches away from here,
except before nonpartisan organiza
tions, his political advisers said today
the president expected to be able to
get his views before the country
effectively.- '
The campaign for the re-election
of (he president will follow the lines
of his speech of acceptance. Through
speeches to delegations here, and
through letters, he will amplify points
made in that address and will accept
the challenge of Charles E. Hughes,
the republican nominee, on the issue
created by the settlement of the re
cently threatened railroad strike. -
Mr. Wilson also has decided to de
vote himself strictly to telling of the
achievement of his administration and
to attacks on the republican party.
Off for St Louis Monday. .'.
The president, will dwell particu
larly on the prosperity of the country
and his plans for the "industrial pre
paredness." . In this connection it be
came known today that as soon as
congress convenes in December, he
will make further efforts to have
passed a bill allowing American ex
porters to utilize common selling
agencies abroad, The president plans
tonight for leaving here next Monday
night for St Louis, to address an
association of underwriters. It is
Kossible however, that the trip may
e cancelled if there should be a sud
den turn for. the worse it the condi
tion of'. Mrs. Annie E., 'owe, his
sister, who .is critically ill at New
London, Conn.
Wilson Will Reply ;
To Hughes' Criticism
Of Adamson Law
Long Branch, N. J, Sept 15.
President Wilson decided today to
take advantage of the earliest possi
ble opportunity to. challenge the
statement made by Charles E. Hughes
in recent speeches that the basis on
which the recently threatened rail
road strike was averted was merely
an increase of wages for the em
ployes. The president his political advis
ers said today, considers the princi
ple of the eight-hour day vitally af
fected by, the strike settlement and
will seek to show that while the rail
road legislation passed by congress
to meet the situation will give the
employes , at least a temporary in
crease in pay, the more important
poi'nt is that it established the eight-
hour day as the basis of work for
railroad workmen. '
. Mr. Wilson expects to make clear
that he will not be satisfied until con
gress enacts into the law the rest of
the railroad legislation he recom
mended when the strike was threat
ened, including an increase in the
Interstate Commerce commission and
a measure for investigation of con
troversies between railways and their
employes before strikes or lockouts
are called. -. , , . ,
