RUMORS OF GERMAN REVOLT. London, Aug. 7. Rumors of nn other revolt by German submarine sailors at Wilhelmshaven are in per sistent circulation, says a dispatch to the London Express from Amsterdam, Holland. It is alleged that the sail ors protested against continuation of the methods of submarine warfare, and just prior to a large number of U-boats leaving on cruises the agita tion reached a climax. The men were incited to attack their officers, seize and surrender their ships. More than fifty submarines are stated to have disappeared from the base. While die rumor lias it that tiiese submarines may liave been seized by the sailors, there is no confirmation of the story. WANT 5,000,000 MEN AT ONCE. Wellington, Aug. 7.

JAP SAILORS RESCUER. An Atlantic Port, Atlg. 7. -An American schooner arrived today with 05 members of the crew of the Jap anese freighter which was torpedoed on Novia Scotia a Tew days' ago. - BIG GUN BUSY. Paris, Aug. 7. Shelling of Paris by the German long range gun was resumed once more today HARD 1L NOW FOR SALEM. Or.. Aug. ft. Sawing wood with a buck saw, sawing It all the time except at meal time and bed time, and sawing it under the muz zle of a gnu will be the punishment meted out to convicts at the state penitentiary who escape and are cap tured, or who attempt to escape. This order was issued by Governor Withy combe to Warden Murphy and is ef fective today with several men who recently made breaks, busy at the wood pile. This will be the punishment served out regardless of whether the con victs have been trusties who escaped by walking away from working gangs or are "hard; bolls who have broken out In some sensational manner. All those at work on the wood pile will be In prison stripes, and through their labor all the wood used at the prison will be sawed. Governor Withycombe has inaugurated this scheme to take the place of an inside industry at which the men can be em ployed, and the buck-saw system 'will be used until some industry within the prison can be established. Under the circumstances Governor Withy combe declares he 1b satisfied with the conduct of affairs at the prison. "Conditions are far ahead of what they were when I went Into office," said the governor.- "At that time there were 500 prisoners and 300 of them were idlet Now we have only 300 men, but every one of them who la able-bodied is at work. " And they are going to remain at work. I am determined that there shall be no idle men at the penitentiary. The Increase In per caidta cost at the -prison, is due to the decrease In population. It costs just as much to run the prison when there are 300 men as when there are 500, which necessarily Increases the per capita cost. The cost last month was $33.14 per capita, but it must be remembered that the same number of guards are necessary as for a larger number of men, and other conditions are similar. Qovernor Withycombe Is satisfied with the showing being made by Warden Murphy. "The warden Is doing as well as any man could do under the circum stances," said the governor. "Per haps he has erred In being too lenient with some of the prisoners, but I would rather have him tharway than to be an official of the austere and cruel stamp. The order I have issued requiring hard word Inside the walls for men who have violated his confi dence meets with his approval' CASTLE ARRESTED BY U. S. MARSHAL Charged With Violating .the Food Control Act Also Sec. ". 3 of Espionage Act. IS UNDER $7000 BOND Well Known Man Confronts Convic tion ou Two Counts Denies Cluirges Under Which Ho Is Held. Deputy United States Marshals Frank Tichenor and E, T. Mass, of Portland, arrived in. this city last rght, and in company with Sheriff George Quine this morning went to the home of I. H. Castle, near Green, arresting him and bringing him be fore United States Commissioner I. B. Riddle, where he was arraigned on two counts, that of violating the food control act and also section three of the espionage act. The complaint was sworn to by John C. Veatch, assistant United States attorney for the district of Oregon, before Frederick H. Drake, U. S. commissioner at Portland. Castle asked to be given until one o'clock thlB afternoon to decide whether or not he desired to waive preliminary hearing before Commis sioner Riddle and the request was granted. At the time set Castle was again brought before Commissioner Riddle and waived preliminary hear ing. He was placed under $7,900 bonds, which he was unable to fur- nlflh. nml will ho tnknn to Portland tonight by Deputy U. S. Marshals Ulchenor and Mass and placed In the! Multnomah county jail, there to, await a hearing before the United States grand Jury. Sometime ago Sheriff Quine receiv ed an inkling that Castle was hoard ing white flour contrary to the food control act, and the matter 'was laid before. United States Secret Service Agent Wm. Glover on his visit to mis city a week ago, who In company with the sheriff went to Castle's place and were about the search the house when Castle strenuously objected and according to the complaint upon which he, Castle, was arrested today, struck Sheriff Quine and threatened Mr. Glover. It, was at this time that both Shernf Quine and Mr. Glover drew their guns and Castle was compelled to yield his resistance and allow the Bearch to be made. The officers found between 400 ana 500 pounds of whole wheat flour In the houBe. It was also alleged In the complaint that at the time mentioned above Castle remarked: "To hell with the government of the United States and to hell with Its officers, they have no power over me." At the time of his arrest this morn ing, Castle was quiet and docile, and offered no resistance whatever to the officers. He denies emphatically the charges alleged in the complaint.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY, Aug. 2. (Delayed.) General De Goutte, commanding the army of which -the American -units north of the Ourcq are a part, received the American correspondents yeBterday and asked thuui to express to the American people the admiration of the Frenc'h army for the fighting qualities of the American soldiers.' He said he regarded it an honor to command such men and that their achievement had been of great bene fit In the execution of the allied planB and their behavior had been above all praise. He said their country should be proud of, soldiers who defeated the best regiments In the German army. . The general declared that what the American had done so far held out glorious : expectations of rhat the greater American army would do. General De Goutte said that the allies would continue to press the Germans. Asked how far the Germans would be driven he re fused to make a prediction. In detail the general kindly ex-! plained to the correspondents the in ception and . progress fat the new drive. . He aaid the future flghtlug would be much harder than that part! of the drive behind us, but he de-1 clared that with the help of the Americans, the allied. command had! little doubt of the result. j The general recalled that during! the Boxer rebellion he had in Chiim seen something of the American offi cers who are now in France. A gen eral commanding a division In which units of ou1 troops not beforehand trained have been fighting, praised their work. General Bailloud re called pleasantly that when he was commanding at Salonlkl American correspondents had asked for his pic ture. He said he told them it was 3 francs, seated, 5 francs standing and 10 francs on horseback. After the picture had been taken, he said, he received the amounts due, which to taled 500 francs. Then he explained that he gave this money as a bounty to the French soldiers as follows:. Five francs for a dead German, 3 francs for a dead Austrian, 2 francs for a dead Bulgarian and 1 frank for a dead Turk. . I have Investigated with some care stories of women operating German machine guns and of Germans being chained to machine guns. Both are unfounded In fact. The story of Ger mans being chained to machine guns seeme due to the fact that the light German machine gun Is carried by a chain across the soldier's back, anu the chain strap Is used as a rest by the gunners who were shot and some times fell from trees with thnse chains about them. This Is the offi cial explanation of the oft-repeated yarn. . ... COUNTY COURT IN SESfilOV. i, The county court met in regular session today. There being no bids for the construction of the Camas Valley road; the court ordered the roadmaflter to proceed to 'construct the road according to plans and speci fications and to pay the same wagcB paid for road construction in other parts of the county. With the excep tion of passing upon county bills, no other business Was transacted by the court today. AUTOMOBILE IS DAMAGED. Word' was received in thlB city to dav to the effect that Geo.

HAVE A GAY OLD TIME Some Tlu'llllug Numbers on Program In Which All Took a Leading l'ort- Dinner Specially Prepared for Boys. , (By BertG. Bates.) SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE, June 29. A real "live" banquet was held In these billets this evening by tho RoBeburg boys in the medical depart ment of the 05th Art. C. A. G. It last ed from 6 p. m. to 9 p. ni. and was one grand gay affilir. Early this aft ernoon Leon AlcCUntock, Arch Mllll- gan and Humpnrey Rankin arrived from a nearby village, whore they are billeted and they stated on their arrival here that they had1 fasted all day In anticipation of the big "feed". These boys from tho neighboring vil lage were the guests of the gang here and they were accorded treatment be fitting a king. There Is no use of going into detail about the week's preparation for this banquet the hotel owner was given instructions to have a regular feed ready for our bunch and not to Hoov- erlze. . Well, he carried out the in structions to the letter. Here Is whnt was spread Lefore us in the neatly prepared banquet room. The first course consisted of "legume" soup, tallowing that we were served with Portugese oysters on the half shell with lemon Juice. The waiter next brought us two fried eggs apiece and bread and butter. Hot chocolate was served then. The next course consist ed' of French fried potatoes, roast chicken, asparagus and sauce, lettuce with mayonnaise dressing. We had no more than finished that when they brought on "beaucoup," fresh peaches ana cream cake with custard.,...' Those attending this "overseas" banquet were. Clarence Tester.. John McClintock, Leon McCllntock, Arch Mllllgan, Geo. Wlllett, Humphrey Rankin, Herbert Quine, Cecil, Black, John Ashworth, Blair Paul, Chas. Prltchett, Howard Channing, Jack A. Wallace and the writer. To say this party was a Jolly one wouid be put ting it mildly and the many speeches made were of a humorous and serious nature. "Hub" Quine, who has hud his head shaved, delivered an "oration" equal to any ever ' 'orated" by W. J. Bryan. His subject was: "Walt till the Kaiser Sees Me." He handled the subject in a very forceful manner and was vociterously applauded at the close of his remarks. Whllo he was making this address one of his worthy comrades appropriated a leg of a chicken from his plate. 'Clarence Tester and John Ash worth sang a duet entitled "She Kissed Me on the Gangplank as I Sailed for Sunny France." The key in which this song was rendered waB an odd one, but the boys meant well. It Is pfobablo they will be booked for Y. M. C. A. work in China. TeBter also dropped a few remarks about the mechanism of a Ford, but none of the fellows took them to heart. Geo. Wlllett recited a poem entitl ed the "Face on the Soda Fountain Floor," written by L. C. Hill, an Ore gon poet. It was plain to see that the descriptive reading was written in Oregon. If the writer had Im bibed In one more Coca Cola the rythm might have run smoother. George had been eating onions, so we could hot gather in as close as we would have liked to. However that didn't keep us from throwing things. Cecil Black, . the village "soda squirt," who has donned . a wrist watch and' Is in the A. E. F. In France, spoke a few "touching" words, on his past life. He related things that would never "get over" back there. It Is claimed! he Is a "bad man" and in his earlier days shoved little ducks in the water for amusement. He spends his spare moment now taming the wild flowers of France. "Humph" Rankin, who used to oil skates In the Sykcs skating rink, stat ed that he hasn't been on a "skate' since leaving California. John and Leon McCllntock staged a beautiful one-act drama entitled "Mary, the Farmers Daughter." John took the part of the heroine at the start, but owing to a flaw In the plot was forced to take the part of the uncle who had been dead ten years before the curtain went up Leon was "made up" as "Algernon the Terrible," who in the courBe of the play succeeded in squeezing three distinct laughs from the attontive au dlence. They received encoro upon encore and were finally forced to put on their shrapnel helmets owing to the fact that he fellows started throw Ins chairs. Arch Mllllgan rendered a violin solo on the phonograph, but forgot to change the needle, so the tone was not as clear as Kubollck's, . Blair Paul, Prltchett, Channing an&T Jack Wallace sang quartette numbers that were guaranteed to take several German trenches pro viding the Germans forgot to wear their gas masks. . In alt the affair was "one big scream" ana tenasa to arivo away our "homesickness blues" to a great extent. The next banquet we have may not be so elaborate but may consist of the' old corn beef hash with a generous supply of "hard tack" and our "dress, suit will be covered with trench mud. But no matter tinder what condition the gang getB together they are bound to be Jolly and cheerful a thing which certainly helps life In the army to be agreeable and worth while. . Today I was talking to a Canadian soldier who has been two years on the lighting front. He told many ex periences about the battles there and told in graphic description the "Bat tlo of Ypres." which is one of the hiBtorlo fights in the'wur. He was an active participant in this struggle and was only once wounded in the two years of fighting. He told of the German's advance over "no man's land' on one occasion. They came over In 14 waves, each wave being four men deep. As they neared tho allies' trenches and the barbedi wire entanglements, thoy sought tho open ings that had been cut by the "wire clippers," hoping to ..get by eaBlly and swarm the Canadian trench. The allied -ina,clilno guns- centered -thoir fire, on thesevopenlngs and, mowed down the advancing waves. The suc ceeding waveB were .forced to climb over the dead bodies until. Anally they weVe piled so high that (ho Jast wave seeing the uselessness of try ing 'to take' the trench,- used this huge pile of human flesh as breast works. The whole Gorman forces at that point "were annihilated. The Canadians t'old of- the three olasses of German soldiers. The ones that wear the little round caps are cow ards when separated from their gaug, and can only fight in Bwarms. An other hardier class are lighting de mons, while the next cIosb are In the scrap against their will and fight only half-heartedly. In another six months there will be only one claBS the dead class. This Canadian said to bewara of German propaganda, and sometimes stories .tailing . of al lied ylctoi'(es -aro -onlyGerman tales camouflaged so as to cuubo the armies' to weaken In their flght The morale of the allied armies is cer- talndly high and such spirit will win above everything else. . 1- BE DETERMINING FACTOR WASHINGTON, Aug. 0. The man power will be the determining factor in the war, and that it Is incontest able that tho numerical superiority or tho entente is increasing dally are two admissions publicly made In Aus tria which have caused groat des pondency throughout the empire, ac cording to advices reaching Washlng Ing today through official channels. The admissions are made in ;ho Ar belter Zoltung, of Vienna, which Btates thnt the French and allied victory on tho west front has visibly produced a profound impression among tho people. The paper states: "The assaults of the allies Bgalnst our now front have In no way dimin ished in intensity. That is a fact which gives one cause to think. With adversaries Ilko the RuBsfuns, the technical superiority of the Germans waB such that the numerical superi ority or the Russians was of no Im portance. On the west, the situation Is quite different. Do not let us for get that the Frenclf and tho Anglo- Saxons are side by side with tho Ger mans the moBt civilized peoples In the world and that they are in a position to turn all modern techni cal inventions to their own prnnt. On the other hand, lot us take into con sideration, the invincible spirit which nnlinatos tho French soldier, the tra dition of victory end glory which only these last few years of German his tory has somewhat tarnished. . "The spirit of the French army united with tho powerful organizing ability of America, gives a value to the armlos of the entente at the very least equal to that of Germany. One must, therefore, admit that In the west, those factors which military and technical valuo represent do not henceforth play any role. Those are the advaniugeB which have become neutralized. It, therefore, results In contradiction to what happened on tho eastern front, that tho decisive factor In this war will be man power. Now It is incontestable that the nu merical superiority of tho entente is Increasing every day. That Is a formal avowal of tho Inevitable de feat which Is awaiting the central powers." That tho conclusion of the article was still more alarming ft manlfust from the fact that the AUBtrlan can- Bor suppressed it, although ho nllow- eu me puuiicaiion oi tne . matter quoted above.
