WILL PREVENT I.W.W.
BEATING ALL TRAINS
SF1ATTLE, July 12.—An organized
effort is to be made ?o i rush the I.
W. W. and to prevent them rustling
work in any part of the state.
For this purpose the federalized
militia is to he. used. Most of the
members of the I. W. W. are itiner
ant workers and move around the
eountry with the public works and
harvesting in various sections. The
militia received orders today to ar
rest all suspected persons beating
their way on trains or tramping
through the country.
Following this order sixteen
were arrested at Cedar Falls and
turned into the Seattle jail where
they are now* held. What charge is
to be placed against these men other
than being broke and an easy mark
for the powers that do not like the
efforts made to increase wages is
not known.
It will result in driving many
workers, it is believed, into the em
ployment otfices.

RUMORS CONFLICT AS
TO HOLLWEG QUITTING
BERNE, July 12.—Conflicting
rumors today front Berlin, ali ap
parently authentic both declare that
Chancellor Hollweg has resigned
and that he did not resign. That
the political crisis in Germany is
acute and that the General Staff is
at outs with the civil administrators
seems indicated in the perpetual
frictions over the peace proposi
tions.
It is contended that von Bethman
Hollweg is committed to the support
of both Zimmerman and Hinden
berg, but that tlie removal of Zim
merman as long as Hindenberg re
mains in control will not affect
Hollweg’s position.
One account, a socialist report,
says that the Kaiser has been deeply
affected by the revolution which re
moved the Tzar and is not anxious
to endure the same thing in Ger
many.
AMSTERDAM, July 12.—Vor
waerts, the socialist organ in Ger
many. and now contioiled the
so-called pro-war section of the so
da! democrats, declares that the
German radicals will force a peace
ful revolution to achieve reform,
if they fail in this they will repeat
efforts of a more unpleasant nature
and more unpleasant measures.
BERLIN, July 12.—Important
gains were made in fighting against
the British and Belgian Flanders
front whin the enemy’s lines wore
extensively pierced by the German
attacks. The counter attacks were
repulsed.
EVERY NAME TO BE
DRAWN IN FIRST LEVY
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 12.—
Secretary Daniels makes the import
ant announcement this evening that
every name of every man registered
for conscription will he drawn in
the first drawing. This will be done
to show them the order of their
drafting alter this first levy has
been made.
The announcement has created
quite a stir.
SEATTLE, July 12.—The new
census of the figures for the Wash
ington state, show that the 'draft
will take in the first levy one man
out of esvry thirty five who have re
gistered, regardless of the qualifica
tions for exemption. This will ,be
much greater than in several other

states.
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 12.—
It is not likely that the draft will
be simultaneously made in all the
states at the sane time. It is poss
ible that there may be a number of
states drawn in their order and the
men sent to training camps just as
soon as the department is ready for
them and as soon as they can be
absorbed. It said to be likely very
little space of time will intervene
between the drafts of the several
states on this account however.
That the troops will be levied at
an early date is certain.

WASHINGTON, II. C., July 12.—
• Orders are out for each state to
hasten the work of preparedness for
the dialling of the men who are re

JUDGE BROWN CONFIRMED
BENCH THIRD DIVISION
I
I WASHINGTON, D. C„ July 12.—
Late this afternoon Judge Brown
of the Third Judicial Division of
Alaska was confirmed to succeed
himself.
Judge Frederick M. Brown was
appointed to his position by Pre
sident Wilson as the endorsed demo
cratic nominee for the judgeship on
June 17, 1913. His appointment
came as no surprise at the time.
Although there has been some op
position to the re-appointment of
Judge Brown it did not materialize
any strength.
It is believed that little or no
changes will be made in federal po
sitions while the war is on.
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 12.—
Reports of internal German disturb
ances and the possible effect that
these will have upon the prolonga
tion or the shortening of the war
does not interfere with the pre
parations which the administration
is continuing to make night and
day in advancing the plans for car
rying on the war on a most inten
sive as well as extensive scale.
PETROGRAD, July 12.—The Am

array sound to the core.
He said that Russia will fight
desperately and will now fight to a
finish.
The General’s Secretary is now

point and the Russians gathering

groat droves of troops to reinforce1
the central Austrian army which is
beginning to feel the pressure. The
advance on Lemberg is being pushwl
[with great daring by the Russians.
| BERLIN. July 12.—The General
St a if admits further withdrawal In

that Lemberg is in no clanger.
PETROGRAD, July 12.—The work

GOETHALS MAY QUIT
AS DENMAN FAVORED
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 12.—
Today the president placed the
power of commanding and of spend
ing seven hundred and fifty million
dollars for a wooden fleet with the
shipping board instead of with
Goethals.
This announcement is received
with astonishment and directs at
tention to the fight between Den
man and Goethals over the relative
merits of wooden and steel ships for
the emergency. It is considered a
signal for victory for Denman.
It will be recalled that Goethals
and Denman engaged in an animat
ed controversy with regard to the
relative merits of the building o£
wooden and steel ships, Denman
further alleging that his board had
effectively reduced the contract
price which Goethals was prepared
to pay the ship builders for steel
vessels, a price an actual advance
of over thirty dollars over the previ
ous contract given. This charge was

Now that the president has turned
over the total appropriation to Den
man's hoard is regarded as a de
cided rebuff for the Canal Builder.
General report this evening says
that this renders the position of
Goethals untenable and that he
will unquestionably resign. Goethals
so far has made no statement and
was strictly non-committal as to
how he received the presidential
order.
