ADRIATIC SAILS WITH
MUNITIONS AND MEN
NEW YORK, Oct. 12.—The White
Star liner Adriatic of the Interna
tional Mercantile Marine started
from this port today, almost seem
ingly determined to defy the Ger
man submarines.
The Adriatic carries three hund
red passengers, a good many of
whom are American citizens, and
also on board are eighteen thousand
tons of war munitions. A great
crowd saw the departure of the
steamer and arriving boats say that
they picked up a score secret wire
less messages, signalling its depar
ture, evidently the radios being in
tended for the submarines.
It is stated here that the British
warships will probably escort the
liner, but this is not an official state
ment upon the part of the company,
and all passengers are proceeding at
their own risk.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 12.^
Search for the liner Kingstonian
which is supposed to have been sub
marined by a German U boat has
been abandoned and the government
boats that have been trying to lo
cate the boats containing the crew
or passengers have not been able
to discover any trace of the
steamer.
Admiral Greaves who had charge
of the search relief work says that
he thinks that the reported sinking
is an error, and that another boat
has been mixed up in the alleged
sinking of the Kingstonian.
The search for the steamer will
therefore be abandoned.

MINISTER IS PRO-ALLY
LONDON, Oct. 12.—The first
lengthy dispatch received today
from Saloniki shows that conditions
are still very chaotic in that coun
try and Athens is still in a state of
turmoil with the royalist govern
ment trying to keep the upper hand.

nister of War is a stout supporter

miserable impasse which the Allies
have succeeded in bringing about
In Greece by their attempt to make
the King and his government viol
ate the neutrality of the nation. The
disgusting attempts to promote a
revolt against the King because he
did duty with his country is re
flected upon themselves, for there is
no doubt that the army as a body

support the king at any time.

SECTION HAND SAVES
TRAIN FROM WRECK
LOUISVILLE, Ky.f Oct. 12.—The
republican campaign special bearing
Charles Evans Hughes to this place
was probably saved from destruc
tion by the tact that a section hand
flagged the special in time to pre
vent its running over a broken raiL
Hughes made quite a little speech
of thanks to the section hand which
Is being published.
Hughes' attention to this section
indicates a lack of confidence in the
solidity of republicanism in the
j north, says the Journal.
WILSON ASSAILS
HUGHES SCATHINGLY
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 12.—Repub
licans admit that Wilson struck a
sledge hammer blow on his own be
half today when he went deliberate
ly after Hughes in language as
powerful as scathing. He said that
any person reviving sectionalism
was unworthy of the national con
fidence, and the hideous prospect of
the republican presidential candidate
stooping to wave the bloody shirt,
was a most humiliating exhibition
to any American. He said that
Hughes' treatment of the great
questions at issue was so narrow,
so intolerant, and so archaic that
he did not know what to think of
the provincialism of one who had
been honored by the land with a
seat on the Supreme Bench of the
nation.
Hughes and the republicans failed
to see that co-operation was the
pre-eminent need of the now nation
alism uniting all Americans and new
nationalism must be the keynote ol
all public action along this line.
To play politics for mere office
seeking was unspeakably contempt
ible, yet, Wilson said, that was all
that was in evidence in any of the
criticism of the democratic admi
nistration. The country faced serious
issues on every side and it was not
sufficient for Hughes or for any can
didate for the office of president to
attack the policies now in force.
They had to show the country where
they could be improved and that
specifically and definitely. “Put up
or shut up— cried Wilson. This
motto was cheered for five minutes
by the people present.

AT AUTOVILLE DEPOT

which was reviewed by the presi

the vast crowds gatherer and they

CHICAGO., Oct. 12.—Heney who
secured a reputation in the prosecu
tion of many graft scandals in spite 1
of the opposition of the higher-ups
and the ringsters, is visiting here
and says that he is certain now that
Wilson will carry California and
will get practically all the progress
ive vote in that state.
TOPEKA, Oct. 12.—Vice-President
Marshal at a great meeting here said
that he as well as tne rest of the
nation was anxious to learn just
what course Governor Hughes
would take were he president In
view of the many recent events.
Marshal said he knew of nothing
easjer than to criticize, but when a
man criticized the actions of an
other whose place he sought him
self, the people who might place
him there were justified in demand
ing what other course he would pur
sue if he were chosen to the position
whose present ineumDent he now is
so free to denounce.
HELENA, Oct. 12.—Fairbanks
spoke here today mostly on the ta
riff. He said that Wilson prosperity

LOCAL ITEMS.
When the Victoria arrived
from St. Michaels, that
steamer brought over a big batch of
mail matter mostly from the coast
and the interior. Some of the

rest doesn't seem to count much.

Lena Morrow Lewis, the socialist
candidate for delegate to Congress,
has sent in copies of her platform
and the suporters of this talented
and able woman are also distribut
ing her cards. While the socialists
do not claim that Mrs. Lewis will
win, they do expect to enroll a large
vote of those who have no time for
the guff of the capitalist politi
cians.
About two hundred Eskimos
started up for their homes in the
Dlomedes, Wales and other sections
from their summer encampment on
the Sandspit. They presented a
most picturesque sight with their
skin boats hugging the coast with
all sail set, homeward bound with
plenty of Whiteman’s grub and lux
ury stowed away with their bagg
age on board. Twenty huge skin
boats made them look like an abor-1
glnal navy starting out on some
raiding expedition.
