THE BEE:
FIRST NEBRASKA
OFFICER KILLED
: 0N BATTLE FRONT
Lieut. Grosvenor P. Cather,
Webster County Boy, Re
ported Slain in Action on
U. S. Casualty List.
Lieutenant Grosvenor P. Cather,
Bladen, Neb., 34 years old, named
among the killed in action in Fri
day's casualty list, is the first Nebras-
ka officer to fall in battle on the west-
ern front and was the first Webster
county man to go overseas.
Lieutenant Cather was a son of Mr.
and Mrs. G. P. Cather, who live near
Balden. The fathej is a well-tp-do
farmer. Lieutenant Cather was a
ftousin of Willa. Siebert Cather, au
thor. of Red Cloud, Neb. ! -
Cather had served in the Nebraska
National Guard previous to the out
break of the war. He attended the
first officers training camp, where he
received his commission. He was
sent: to France last summer with a
group of officers for special training.
He is the first man in that group to
be named in a casualty list. ;
Besides his ' father and mother,
Lieutenant Cather is survived by his
widow and by two brothers. Frank
and Oscar Cather, and by a sister,
Mrs. O. L. Lindgren. He had no

In the last letter received from him

kGerrnan War Prisoners ;
Become Hobos in Russia
London, June 6. The German war
prisoner has become the "hobo" of
Russia an idle, shiftlees . wanderer
who wants neither $p work nor to
fight. Many such prisoners, both
German and Austrians. were en
countered at different points in Rus
sia by the members of the American
Red Cross Mission returning from
Rumania... They were never under
guard, were usually in small groups,
and apparently had no employment
or wish for employment. They were
without arms and shabbily clad, and
and always declared emphatically
that they had no desire to get back
into the German army, nor even any
wish to return to Germany until af
ter a general peace was declared.
If the prisoners showed any dis
position to organize or even "to tra
vel about in marouding bands, they
would furnish a serious problem, but
under present conditions, they are
merely a nuisance.
At a small station north of Volog
da, there was a group of about 50
prisoners idling on the station plat
form, some asleep' in the winter; sun,
Mine playing cards, others whittling
little toys and knick-knacks out of
soft Wood. They were greatly sur
prised to. hear that the United States
had entered the war a year before,
and several of them expressed still
more surprise at being informed that
American was not the ally of Germany.--'

, ( (By Associated Preaa.) ;
St. Paul, Minn., June 7. Sharp
criticism of pfccials of the Western
Union Telegraph company for their
alleged refusal to abide by the de
cision of the national war labor board
and protestations of labor's united
support of the government's war pol
icy were voiced late today by officials
of the American Federation of Labor,
speaking at pre-convention meetings.
According to President Samuel
Gompers and Secretary Frank Morri
son, the action of the telegraph offi
cials' is in direct violation of the pur
pose of the board and has demoral
izing effect upon the mbrale of work
ing people. , '
"This probably will result in Presi

enactment of legislation by congress
for taking over all telegraph and all
