Priceless Pictures Are Boxed for Shipment Church treasures Kemovea. 2 REFORMS ARE ENACTED farole of ConTicta and Conciliation Court for Labor Troubles Pro- vlded Kerensky Seeks to (. Form Responsible Cabinet. PETROGRAD, Sept. 24. (Delayed.) 'Although there are no signs of panic among the population and there are in dications of returning' confidence, the partial evacuation of Petrograd is proceeding-, irrespective of whether the government will be transferred to Mos cow. A priceless collection of pictures at the Hermitage Gallery is already boxed for shipment to an unknown destina tion. The treasures of the synod and parochial churches in Petrograd also are being removed. PETROGRAD, Sept. 23. (Delayed.) two important reforms have been en acted by the government. The first provides for the liberation of convicts before the expiration of their terms, upon promise of good conduct. Such convicts may be returned to prison only after conviction for a new offense. Kerauky to Attend ConKrul. The second reform establishes con ciliation courts for the settlement of disputes between employers and Work ers. Such courts had been already -unofficially organized by the soldiers' and workmen's deputies after the revolu tion and now become official. The courts consist of an equal num ber of representatives of the employers and the employes. Premier Kerensky will return to Petrograd today. His secretary said he would not recognize as official the democratic congress called by the sol diers' and workmen's delegates, which will meet on Thursday, although he night address it. Absurd and sensational rumors were current last night regarding the Pre mier. They were published in the newspapers this morning, but were de clared officially to be unfounded.. Cabinet to Be Formed. The chief problem before the Con gress will have to do with the plan, which possibly will be backed by ama Jority, to bring about the formation of a Cabinet responsible only to the Con gress. M. Avskentieff, formerly Minister of the Interior, explained this project to the peasant delegates in a patriotic speech in. which he said Russia must fight Germany resolutely ' if it desired to avoid abject surrender. The prob able policy of the Congress was Indi cated further by a message sent by the soldiers' and workmen's delegates td Premier Kerensky, begging him to postpone formation of a Cabinet until the congress has met. The Premier's secretary, who '1 one of the leaders of the peasant delegates, fears, the Bolshevik! will have a ma jority, owing to the fact that this party Is straining every nerve to rally ad herents, whereas the moderates refuse to attend the congress on account of its unrepresentative character. A judicial investigation has shown that the famous monarchist plot of early September, in which Madame Hitrovo figured and in connection with which several grand dukes were ar rested, was a hoax, perpetrated by two volunteer soldiers and two civilians. BOOTLEGGERS PAY FINES Vmatilla County Gets $1000 of Profits on Liquor Importation. PENDLETON, Or., Sept. 26. (Spe cial.) Another bootlegging car, the second in two days, was picked up late last night by Pendleton officers. Fred Conners and Albert Moses, the latter an Indian, were turned over to the state court. The car bore an Idaho license. The men pleaded guilty this after noon to a charge of selling liquor and paid fines of $500 each. They have been here about a week, coming with a carload of liquor from Montana, and were arrested while de livering their last 25 bottles to a cus- tomer. Their price was $10 a quart and their success may be judged from the fact that one had a draft for $1400 when arrested and both had consid erable cash. Trap Placed at Mouth of Cowlitz.

Dyspeptics Get Relief Or Money Back A Remarkable Remedy The contention that over 90 per cent of all stomach troubles are either di--rectly4or indirectly due to acidity or food fermentation seems to be amply broven by the uniformly instant relief experienced by sufferers from indiges tion and dyspepsia, who take a tea npoonful of pure Bi-Nesia or two, or three of the five-grain tablets In a lit tle water immediately after eating. Many dyspeptics, however, have tried io many highly praised remedies with out obtaining relief that-they have be frun to think nothing , can help them. It is therefore a matter of pleasant surprise to these people to learn that e-ery bottle of Bi-Xesia, either tablets or powder, is accompanied by a binding guarantee to return the purchase price if it fails to give complete satisfac tionproof positive of our confidence that Bl-Xesia. which Is readily obtain able of any druggist. Is the most re markable remedy ever known for dys pepsia. Indigestion, acidity, flatulence and stomaci troubles generally. Adv. fv " J ; 4 J S -i t ; -L I " V-; iT.CS, ?

FLORENCE MARSHALL. Upon the "rturdy shoulders of MISS Florence (Marshall falls the great task of mobilizing the womanhood of the country under the Red Cross flag. She has been appointed to organize the women of the country so that sur gical dressings and other necessities In Red Cross work will be made in great quantities. Her work will be widespread. The enrolling of the women of the land In the great work of humanity is a tremendous task that requires great organizing abilities. Miss Marshall, as director of the women's bureau of the National Red Cross, has already started the wheels of organiza tion movlnsr. and local chapters have been formed in almost every community. no matter how small, in the United States.- There never will be a need of Red Cross supplies of the kind that can be turned ouf by the women, for they are devoting a great part of their time to the making 6f these neces sities. Miss Marshall was. formerly the director of the Manhattan Trade School, and there established her great reputation as an organizer. U-BOATS ARE UPHELD "Belgium Gets Just Deserts," Says Tirpitz. INDEMNITY IS DEMANDED true inspiration, however, is supplied by Admiral von Tirpitz and by public and private individuals who would not resent being accused of harboring pro nounced Pan-Cerman, annexationist views. The issue is now considered a clean cut one. The Pan-Germans dispose of Unlimited funds and an amenable press. . The liberal elements are count ing upon their parliamentary majority, the government's endorsement of their peace resolutions and the desire of the German people as reflected In that ac tion and subsquently in the German re ply to Pope Benedict. 'Peace Without Payment Means Germany's Defeat, and Victory of Anglo-American Capitalism," Fatherland Party Is Told. COPENHAGEN, Sept. 23.' The new German Fatherland party held its first open meeting in Berlin last night and the crowd In Philharmonic Hall was o enormous that an overflow meeting was held nearby. No government of ficials attended either meeting. Duke Johann Albfcecht, of Mecklenburg Schwerin, opened both meetings and Admiral Von Tirptts was the principal speaker at each. Admiral Von Tlrpits pointed out that the submarine warfare is Germany's legal right and that Belgium now has her just desserts. Belgium, the speak er declared, was always England's bridgehead and that Germany must do her utmost in preventing Kngland from becoming Belgium's protecting master. Admiral Von Tlrpita further de clared that peace without a heavy War indemnity meant Germany's defeat and the victory of Anglo-American capital' ism. Admiral Von Tirpitx was greeted enthusiastically. . ' BERIjIN, Sept. 25, via London, Sept. 24. "We have established that we are unconquerable in a military and eco nomic way and that we will continue to remain the stronger party, provided we do not lose cfur nerve," said Ad mlral Von Tlrpits in his speech before the first open meeting of the new Ger man Fatherland party. Charging that "Anglo-American capi tal was making every effort to save the money it invested in this war," Admiral Von Tirpitz continued: "We have not overlooked opportuni ties to gain President Wilson's friend ship, but invariably have achieved the opposite result." PAX-GERMAN ORDER ASSAILED Socialists Say Fatherland Policy Is ' Suicide of European Culture. BERLIN, Sept. 25. (Delayed.) The Pan-German activities which have been started on a national scale are ex pected to find an echo in the plenary sessons of the Reichstag. The central governing board of the Social Demo cratic party has issued a plain-spoken call, summoning the opponents of the reactionaries to joint action. The dec laration proceeds to establish the iden tity of the various disguises adopted by the Pan-German agencies. It as serts the combination is made up of industrialists and the landed interests, whose war aims reach the pinnacle of demand for annexations. Indemnities and the granting of such a separate peace to each enemy aa the conditions warrant. The call concludes with the declara tion that the realization of the Pan German programme would mean the suicide of European culture and civili zation, for after such a collapse, it is pointed out, the reconstruction of Europe could not be accomplished for a century. The activities of the Fath erland party are also likely to be de veloped in the open sessions of the Reichstag. The Pan-German organization, ostene sibly founded to rejuvenate national patriotism, is gradually unfurling its true colors. The Duke of Mecklenburg Schwerin is its honorary president.

Seven persona were killed and 25 Injured ln the southeastern outskirts of London in laet night's air raid.

Half an hour later the second group of raiders was driv en off, while approaching London. Although details are lacking. It is reported that a thrilling battle oc curred between German and British airmen a few miles from London, which probably accounts for the fact that last night's air raid resulted in so little damage In the metropolis. Ennr Air Fleet Broken 19. According to early reports, the for mation of the German fleet, which was coming towards London at a great height and at great speed,, was com pletely broken up by the British fliers, the raiders separating and all exoept one turning back, closely pursued. Ho effective were the measures taken to intercept this lone intruder that he was unable to penetrate beyond the out skirts of London. While the anti-aircraft guns boomed constantly, establishing: a barrage fire around the city, as on Monday night, diners in hotels and restaurants and' audiences in theaters and at the opera at the time for the most part were in different and unaffected. Some theaters and moving picture places, anticipating the raid, had in creased their advertising in the even ing papers with such announcement as "Moonlight Nights Open as Usual Ample Bomb-Proof Shelter."

A great throng assembled this after noon in. the hall as the hour ap proached for the finding of the verdict. The crowd composed a varied picture, made possible only by the revolution. Generals in splendid uniforms rubbed elbows with private soldiers clad in rusty blouses. Women In silka and furs jostled plain-gowned women of the poor. As the Chlet Justice addressed the jurors, instructing them in the law, the courtroom was like a scene in a picturesque drama. General Soukhom linoff. in drab uniform, bald and bearded, sat with head In hand, elbow on. the dock, peering Intently at the jurors.
