There is not a chance for him to miss connection now, because five of us have pledged ourselves to vote :or mm.

France Talking of Jail Bird Slackers Sport Calendar Today (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) Paris. Oct. 24. The orotection from German shells enjoyed by con victs through their own misdeeds, while the lawabiding men of France able to bear arms are making such heavy sacrifices, has raised a dis cussion as to the propriety of sending to the front of all able-bodied men now in prison. "Jail-bird slackers" is the name given to men sentenced in 1914 or previously to periods of confinement that have carried them over the first two years of the war. A law recently introduced in the Chamber of Depu ties by Pierre Rameil and .Andre Hesse contemplates the incorporation of certain categories of these men. The proposition was received with considerable satisfaction until a study of the question developed forcible objections. A great many people held that It would be according too much honor to allow convicts to fight at the front alongside the gal lant soldier of the republic. Others held that the results would scarcely justify the experiment while the number of recruits that could be obtained this way, estimated at the 4,000, would furnish too small an ef fort to justify the risk. It would be necessary to provide an organization absolutely separate and distinct from any other arm of the service to pre vent contact between convicts and the soldiers of the regular army. A great many prisoners have beg bed for the privilege of a suspension of their sentence to permit them to go to the front, and have thus ap pealed with some force to the senti ment of charitably minded people. There are precedents, however, show ing that the men who have gone to the front to clear themselves of stains upon their record have not in every case justified the hope that was en tertained. Chinese Financier Plans Big Keform (Correipondenoe of The Associated Press.) Peking, Oct. 16. Chen Chin-tao, the new minister of finance, has out lined plans for financial reform and prepared estimates on the possible income of China under effective ad ministration, which shows an annual total of $49,000,000 silver. . This amount is in decided contrast to the recent annual receipts of the central government, which have been about $70,000,000 silver. Of this sum, the minister of finance says that only $30,000,000 silver can be absolutely depended upon. The receipts of the central govern ment have dwindled terribly under revolutionary influence. At present less than half a dozen provinces are remitting to Peking, and finances are in a precarious condition. Chen Chin-tao has advised that a foreign loan , of $1,000,000,000 silver should be contracted at once. Of this sum he - would' use $25,000,000 for the resumption of specie payment on the notes of the Bank of China and the Bank of Communication. For the disbandment of surplus troops, $20,000,000 more will be required. Re organization in the various provinces would claim an expenditure of $AUO0,UUU, and he suggests an ap propriation of $6,000,000 for the inv provement of railways, and $40,000, 000 for administrative expenditure. An elaborate plan for the reform of tax collection is outlined, including tne making of a proper budget ana the reformation of the currency sys tem. He would establish an inspectorate-general for the supervision of tax collection throughout the republic, fashioned somewhat alter the reor ganization foreign bankers effected to collect salt taxes pledged to them as security for a reorganization loan. The minister of finance estimates $120,000,000 can be realized from the landax under proper supervision. Two Dreadnoughts Of Kaiser Hit by British Torpedoes London, Nov. 7. A -claim that two 'dreadnoughts were hit by the British submarine which yesterday was re ported launching a torpedo at and striking a German dreadnought in the North Sea, is contained in a further report received from the com manding officer of the submarine, it was officially announced today. The two dreadnoughts claimed to have been struck were battleships of the Kaiser class. The naval registers show five dread naught battleships of the Kaiser class, all completed between October, 1912, and August, 1913. Besides the name ship of the class, they are the Fried- rich der Grosse, Kaiserin, Prinz Re gent Luitpold and Koenig Albert. The displacement of each is 24,700 tons, length 564 feet, beam ninety-five feet and draft twenty-seven feet. Their armaments consisted of ten twelve-inch guns, fourteen six-inch guns, twelve twenty-four pounders and four anti-aircraft guns. They are equipped with five torpedo tubes, submerged. The Kaiser's best speed record is given as 23.6 knots. Reports from British sources that the Kaiser was sunk in the Jutland sea fight last May were semt-official-ly denied in Berlin. It was stated that the Kaiser was only twice light ly hit by gunfire, one man being killed. BUGGY BUILDERS STILL BUSY In Spite of Automobiles Their Busi ness seems to tie Hom ing Up. Every year since 1872. when few trades or lines of industry had na tional organizations or annual conven tions, the carriage builders ot the United States have gathered in some city, alternately in the cast and west, to talk business and have a good time. The years since 1872 have brought some amazing changes in transporta tion, but the carriage builders are still doing business and their announce ment of their forty-fourth annual con vention in Cincinnati next month does not indicate that they are downhearted by the probability that another year will see one motor car in this coun try to every twenty-five inhabiants. There are fewer carriage builders than there used to be, but they still do an amount of business that will surprise some persons. The figures for 1914, recently made pubiic by a special census bulletin, show 1,187,000 horse-drawn vehicles of all kinds made m the country that year, of which 55R.OOO were buffQ-ies. The total value was $135,793,357 and 5,320 establish ments were included in the enumeration. The motor car is coming and com ing fast, as some of us may have ob served, but it is not putting the horse out of business any more than the railway or the trolley car or the bicycle did and it is not likely to in our generation or the next. The coun try is big enough for millions of motor cars without shutting off the demand .u. w.. ....... o... wv.j year. Boston Herald- BOTH SIDES WILL CHARGE MURDER I. W.

Responsi bility for the pitched battle between 250 members of the Industrial Workers of the World and a posse of 150 Everett citizens at the city dock yesterday in which seven men lost their lives and fifty were wounded, was placed upon the men on the boat by the coroner's jury which investigated the death of the two Everett citizens killed in .the riot. , The jury after brief deliberation re turned a verdict that Charles O. Curtiss, a posseman, who was in stantly killed, and Deputy Sheriff Jef ferson Beard, who died of his wounds early today, met death from '?gunshot wounds inflicted by a riotous mob on the steamer Verona at the city dock." Shots Fired Prom Ship, All but two of the, witnesses called testified that the shots fired were fired from the Verona on which the invad ing Industrial Workers came from Seattle. William H. Bridges, a deputy sheriff, testified concerning the con versation that passed between Sheriff McRae and the men on the boat be fore the shooting began. : According to Bridges the conversa tion between the sheriff and the In dustrial Workers were as follows: "Boys, I'd like to speak to the leader of the bunch. Who is your leader," asked Sheriff McRae. "We're all leaders,", shouted' the men on the Verona in chorus. "I want to tell you," McRae replied, "that you can't land in this town, You muststay on the. boat and go back to Seattle- You can't land here." Shooting Becomes General. "The hell," shouted a man standing in the bow of the boat Then, according to Bridges, the man who uttered the last retort opened fire on the posse and the shooting became general. Athol Gorrill. student of Spokane, who was visiting here; Harry B. Blackburn, a mgnt watenman, and Elmer Buehrer, all of whom were members of the citizen's committee, were in a critical condition tonight from the wounds they received during the fighting. i' . n . i. m All of the injured here will recover.

WD TING FANS IS FOREIGN MINISTER Diplomat Stationed at Wash ington Many Years Member of Chinese Cabinet. FRIEND OP UNlTEiD STATES Peking, Nov. 7. Wu Ting Fang has been appointed minister of for eign affairs. . His appointment was approved today by the virtually unan imous vote of Parliament. ' . Wu Ting Fang was Chinese minis ter at Washington for several years. Two previous selections of Premier Tuan Chi-Jui for the foreign portfolia were rejected by Parliament because of the monarchial leanings of the men designated. Under the guidance of Wu Ting Fang the Chinese .foreign office will be conducted by a man who has per haps a greater decree of familiarity with American affajrsthan any other Chinese tate8man7lurin( his two terms of service at Washington he gained a national reputation for his picturesque personality and his wit. He was regarded at Washington as an exceptionally . capable diplomat and a friend of the United States. During the Boxer uprising of 1900 he succeeded in getting through a mes sage to the American minister, Mr. Conger, who, with his colleagues, was in the compound ' in Peking, and whose fate was a matter of concern to the State department. His sym pathies were manifestly with the United Mates during the troubles and this led to his recall. In 1907 he was again appointed minister at Washing ton and was recalled in 1909. 1 Wu Ting Fang is a pronounced lib eral and was in sympathy with the revolution which led to the over throw of the Manchu dynasty, shar ing in the work of forming a repub lican government. After President Yuan Shi Kai announced his inten tion of becoming emperor of China. and the revolution started in south China, Wu Ting Fang advised the president a few weeks befoce his death last summer to retire from office. As foreign minister Wu Ting Fana's most important work prob ably will be in connection with the difficult auestions of relations with Japan, tie has been a sympathizer of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the southern revolutionary leader, and during the administration of Yuan Shi Kai did not take a prominent part in public attairs, so that little is known in this country in regard to his attitude toward the differences, between China and Japan. Art Renascense in Wake of World War (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Rome, Oct.. 22. That the war will result in a rebirth of architectural art in vaster and more beautiful buildings than the coliseum or the American skyscraper is the opinion of Dr. Jesse Benedict Carter, director of the Amer ican academy in Rome, who has just been appointed by the French gover nor to deliver the Harvard series of lectures this winter before twelve of its provincial universities. Dr. Carter expressed this opinion In the Roman forum during an inter view with The Associated Press, just after his first annual lecture there, a lecture which was attended by Am bassador Thomas Nelson Page and other Americans. Said Dr. Carter: "An art renaissance has two basic re quirements, first a crisis, then the con tributed wealth of a few people. This war has furnished both. Let me ex plain the second requirement. While this war has impoverished a majority of the people of Europe, it has en riched a lot of contractors and muni tion manufacturers, who after the war will have more money than they can spend. Such men have ever become art patrons, stimulators,' rather than, buyers of old art treasures, as hap pens in countries where there are a great many millionaires. "This war will surely bring a healthy reaction in art. It means the death of cubism and other follies. It will bring the intense suffering and the sympathy therefor which results in great art productions. One of the peculiarities of the new artistic tem perament will be an apparent indif ference to suffering. I nave observed during my war travels everywhere' this apparent indifference among peo pie who I knew were suffering des perate personal losses. "The new art mind will turn out products that will astonish by their beauty and by their bigness. This war has been an inconceivably im mense thing and it is making our minds accustomed to immeasureably big objects. . .. . .. Ravage Sharks Fight Boat.
