HOLLWEG INSISTS ANNEXATION
CABINET CRISIS IS
TALK WORLD WAR
LONDON, July 11.—The extra
ordinary cabinet crisis in Germany
followed by the announced refusal
of Hollweg to resign is now further
made more sensational by the an
nouncement that Hollweg has de
cided to fill the vacancies in the ca
binet from the members of the
Reichstag and further that ne would
create a new portlolio in the mi
nistry which will all of them be
filled by socialists.
The vacancies referred to arc
those of Secretary Zimmerman,
Vice 'Chancellor Heffrich, and Colo
nial Secretary Solf who projab'y
are being sacrificed to satisfy the
socialists, all of them being especi
ally reactionary politicians who have
been associated with the very
strongest of the imperialist agrari
ans.
V. A.SH1NGTOX, D. C., July 11.-—
The government issued an official
warning that the German situation
must he regarded as hopeful ar.u

sians are continuing their tremend
ous drive upon the forts of Lem
berg and have compelled the Ger

tilation.
STATE’S CASE IS
SHOT FULL HOLES
SAN FRANCISCO, July 10.—To
day was a bad day lor the State in
the Mooney trial the defense putting
on very responsible witnesses that
hate had a strong effect on the jury.
Four occupants, among others,
of the official press car. alone grant
ed the freedom of the streets the day
of the memorable preparedness pa
rade, one after another testified that
they were in the vicinity of the ex
plosion at the time of the occur
ence and before and afterwards.
They were there at the *ime fhe i
auto is alleged to have been there
containing the defendant and Bill
rings and Tom Mooney. They swore
that their own car was the only one
that they could see. They did not
obserte the auto of the defendants
as alleged by the state witness. This
practically refutes the contention of
the state that the defendants went
to the scene of the explosion in an
auto. If an auto was there they
would have seen it they admitted.
Witnesses testified tc seeing Bill
ings on the roof a building a mile
from the scene of the explosion at
the time state witnesses testified
to seeing him at Steuart and Mar
ket streets. Three policemen from
Los Angeles testified to the reputa
tion of Estelle Smith who used to
keep a house of prostitution there.
She is the star witness for the state.
They said her reputation was bad
all the way through.
WILL BANISH BOY
EMPEROR FROM CHINA
PEKING, July 11.—The short
lived revival of the empire in ( hina
is now dead as a door nail and the
republicans are completely in the
ascendant with the former war
chiefs who plotted the establish
ment of the monarchy all practi
cally overthrown.
Convincing proof of this is noted
in the edict of the President of the
Chinese republic, announcing that
the boy emperor will be for ever
banished from the republic and that
all monarchists will be jailed or de
ported.
Where only a day or two ago the
republicans were terrorized into sil
ence and the empire was regarded
as a certain fact, the monarchists
are now themselves in hiding.
Many dead monarchist bodies are
found, having apparently fallen vic
tims of the relatives of those whom

they executed. There is a general
clamor Cor the immediate execution
of those army officers who aided or
abetted in any way the destruction
of the republic.
It is likely that very shortly n con
venticn will be called front all the
provinces to meet in or near Nank
ing to discuss the complete le-estab
lishment ot the constittution of
China and to remodel the army
upon more democratic lines to pre
vent these repeated assaults upon
the fabric of the republic.
DEPUTIES DEPORT I. W. W.
MENDERS FROM JEROME
JEROME, Ariz., July 11.—This
milling camp was the scene of ex
citing and somewhat sensational
events today when two In mired
and fifty deputies armed with pick
handles and other weapons searched
the lodging houses of the city and
arrested over a hundred members
of the Industrial Workers of the
World who attempted to pull off a
strike in the United Verde mines
without success, owing to the oppo
sition of the other labor organiza
tion (o working with them.
The deputies loaded two cattle
cars and guarded by fifty deputies
they were speeded out of town.
The prisoners took their deporta
tion without any hard feelings and
they waved their hats as their cars
started to move, shouting “We’ll
come back again”. Armed deputies
mot the. train at Jerome junction
and kept it moving to Needles
across the California boundary.
All of the industrialists however
wore not deported. The authorities
are now holding an investigation
ot the activities of some of the lead
ers and are holding thirtj in jail
pending the results or such an in
quiry. The industrialists will prob
ably seek to obtain their release on
writs of habeas corpus.
The whole city has been greatly
worked up by the events of the
past few days and the efforts to
cause a general strike in the camp.
The situation is still somewhat pan
icky.
HQLLWEG HAS COLD
COMFORT PACIFICISTS
BERNE, July 10.—Yesterday von
Bethman Hollweg according to olli
cial dispatches which passed uncen
sored to this place today, told the
Reichstag in Berlin that peace with
out annexation was not desired by
.Germany. He point blank refused
to discuss or declare the peace aims
of the German government as d
manded by the socialists and power
ful Centralists.
“Germany can win this war—
Germany is winning it”—said the
Chancellor “and if the German Em
pire holds out therfc will be not e>;en
a doubt about victory”. He de-1
dared that be had no intention oi
acceding to the demands which op-!
ponents of the government's present
policy had formulate d that he resign
the chancellery.
Hollweg declared that the peace
demands, especially a peace without
annexation and without security
against another assault upon tlie
integrity of the Central Powers,
were, but the echoes ol tlie enemy's
insidious criticism on the reason
Iable policies of Germany and her
Allies. *
AMSTERDAM. July 11.—An un
confirmed report from Berlin states
quite definitely that the Kaiser has
decided to accept the resignation
of the Foreign Minister, von Zim
merman, formerly assistant to von
Jagov before the latter's demise.
This is owing to the general dissatis
faction of the people over the
bungle o! the Mexican-Japanese plot
against America. Zimmerman is
blamed for the entry of America
into the war.

REFUSE STATE OFFER
OF STRIKE COMPROMISE
I
\ GLOBE, Ariz.. July 11.—The in- |
I dustrialists who struck on the Old
Dominion mine are still out and the
mine is idle. They refused bluntly
to accept the state compromise of
fered by former Governor Hunt and
John J. M'Bride, the federal modi
ators, insisting that their demands
be met in full.
The mediators were told by the
industrialists that this was part of
the national movement and not a
local matter according to the state
ment made by Hunt to tli > report
ers.
The mediators left for Phoenix
yesterday.
The many deputies here rule out
to Copperhill arid demanded that
the industrialists abandon their
congregating as pickets. They have
appealed to Governor Campbell
against this lawless suppression of
their legal rights.
GLOBE, Ariz., .July 11.—James
Chapman, the industrialist leader
announced that he had received te
legrams from various sections of
the Pacific Coast stating that the
industrialist employees there were
ready to call a general strike in
sympathy with them.
The situation, as far as the mines
are concerned remains unchanged
and there is no attempt made now
to operate them. The factions are
growing in bitterness and trouble is
feared from the ofliciousuess of the
deputies who are taking every
chame they get to stop meetings by
the strikers.
