Serious rioting roke out in Vienna yesterday, says an Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Am sterdam. The mob broke into a num ber of bakeries, stoned the residence of the premier and also one of the wings of the Hofburg Palace, the message adds. Cavalry is being rushed to the capi tal to restore order. It is probable, it Is said, that martial law will be pro claimed. The rioting was in protest against the reductions of the bread ration. Burgomaster Warns Premier. Burgomaster Weiss-Klrchner, of Vi enna, has, Informed Premier von Seyd Jer, according to a dispatch from the Austrian capital transmitted by the correspondent at Amsterdam of the Exchange Telegraph Company, that in view of the reduction of the bread ra tion he declines to guarantee order in the capital. AMSTERDAM. June 20. A Vienna dispatch to Berlin newspapers says that reduction of the bread ration in Austria-Hungary caused immense excite Jnen.t throughout the dual monarchy. All Austrian newspapers without distinction of party protest against the measure, demand its removal and ask immediate help from Germany and Hungary. AMSTERDAM, June 19. A Vienna dispatch published in the Berlin Zeit vng Am Mittag gives an official state Went of the Vienna City Council on the food situation in that city. The state ment reads: Food Agreement Broken. "Germany promised some weeks ago In a state treaty to undertake respon sibility for the food supply for both the civilian population and the arm), whether the supplies were drawn from Ukraine, Roumania or Germany's own reserve stock. "Deliveries at first proceeded smooth ly. For th last eight days, however, Germany has been in arrears of her quota. "The statement adds that urgent ap peals have been sent to the German of ficials saying that the situation is acute, particularly in munition . cen ters." COPENHAGEN, June 20. According to the Vossische Zeitung, the Mayor of Vienna in a statement explaining the food situation has said that last month a proclamation was issued to farmers requesting them to deliver a certain amount to large towns. The council had hoped td receive 10, 000 carloads of grain, but as a matter of fact had received only 2500. The Mayor also reported that after the last lot of potatoes is distributed this week the supply will he exhausted. The Mayor of Budapest, replying to a, telegram requesting assistance, said conditions there were so bad that the people, had not had sufficient food for months. x AMSTERDAM, June 17. For at least six weeks, says the Vienna Neue Kreie Presse, the people of Austria will have to exist on little more than salads and certain vegetables. The bread allotment to each individ ual in the city of Vienna is now less than one and one-half pounds weekly, it was stated In a dispatch from Copen hagen on Tuesday. Protests against this rationing have been vehement from various quarters. General Strike Feared. Strikes in Vienna and elsewhere have been one outgrowth of the situation, according to reports from Switzerland, and fears hava been expressed In Aus trian quarters that what would vir tually amount to a general strike was Imminent. In one recent labor demonstration in IVienna the police had to be called upon to disperse the rioters, it was said. Austria, it appears, is entering the iew harvest year without any reserve stocks and is dependent upon Germany for such scanty supplies as she Is re ceiving. Germany herself, however, is reported bo short of stocks that she is Bible to extend little help. Seemingly there are still supplies In Hungary from which Austria might derive some email assistance, but appeals to the Hungarian authorities do not appear to have brought results. s OFT COLLARS Earl & Wilson Collars give you distinction without dis comfort, trimness without binding and style without starch.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, June 20 (By the Associat ed Press.) At dawn today American troops stormed German trenches and machine gun nests In front of Cantigny, in the Montdidier sector. Those of the German garrison who remained to fight and carry out their orders .to hold the positions at any cost were killed by rifle and machine-gun fire and bay onet. The Americans also took prisoners. Fight Short, bat Bitter. The American artillery put down a heavy box barrage on the rear of the enemy positions. A few minutes later the infantry swarmed over the top and rushed the trenches. Some of the Ger mans had tried to escape through the barrage, crashing to their rear, but few of them got through, for numerous German dead were found later. Prisoners captured declare that they had orders to hold on at all costs, and this was apparent by the desperate manner In which they fought. The hutiu w short but deadly, for the enemy positions were swept clean of the Germans. The official report says that a great many Germans were killed. One machine gun nest containing right men. which had been sprinkling Cantigny for some days, was blown up by a direct hit from a trencn mortar bomb. WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES ON THE MARNE, June 20. (By the Asso ciated Press.) The American troops In this sector attacked the German line northwest of Chateau Thierry during the night and made an advance of five eighths of a mile, driving the Germans back from a small pocket on the north am side of Belleu Wood. Enemy Refuses to Fight. The Americans occupied the German positions without resistance from the enemy, the Germans having withdrawn when the short and sharp preliminary artillery bombardment indicated that an infantry attack would follow. . The Germans carried their material with them in their retreat, anc the Americans therefore did not take any machine guns. As a matter of course, also, no prisoners were taken.

PRESIDENT ISSUES ORDER Commission Men, Speculators, Order Buyers, Traders and Scalpers to Come Under Federal Regulation. WASHINGTON. June 20. All stock yards In the United States today were ordered by President Wilson to bo put under Federal license. A Presidential proclamation was issued which re quires that licenses must be obtained from the food, administration on or be fore July 25. . Licensing is also required of com mission men, order buyers, trad ens, speculators and scalpers handling or dealing in live cattle, sheep, swine or goats, "in or in connection with such stockyards," except those exempted by the food and fuel law. Regulatory powers are conferred upon the Secretary of Agriculture, who has delegated the authority to the Bureau of Markets, of which Charles J. Brand is chief. Licensing machinery developed by the food administration will be used. Rules and regulations being formu lated by tho Bureau of Markets will be given out within a few weeks. Penalties for those who fail to ob tain licenses are provided in the Pres ident's proclamation. Officers of tho Portland Union Stockyards Company approve of the action of the President in ordering all stockyards put under Federal license. As soon as officially advised, they will make application to the food ad ministration for a license. Operations at the local yard are con ducted in an open manner to the sat isfaction of shippers, and it is not be lieved that the new regulations will cause any change in the way of doing business here. The recommendations of the live stock investigating committee have al ready been acted on in part by the United States Bureau of Markets, which issues a daily report on the distribution and destination of ship ments, and in the larger markets of the East has begun the reporting of actual transactions.

He testified that Wilson & Co. tried to supply bet ter hams than those specified by the Navy; that he and Mr. Wilson had eaten hams which had been rejected, and that no ham had been sent- out which he would have been unwilling to have his brother, who is in the Army, eat. After quoting the Navy Inspector at Chicago as saying that a slight trace of mould would not affect the quallty of & ham, Mr. Bowers asserted that the best way to "sweeten" such hams was to wipe off the mould with dry salt and a brush and hang them tn a smokehouse, without smoke, for 12 hours. He opposed the method suggested, he said, by the Navy Inspect--, that .the hams should be washed in tepid water and smoked for 36 hours because "crevices" would be opened and the water, soaking In, would carry the mould. He testified" that of 115.117 pounds which had been ""reprocessed" last Winter only 775 pounds were condemned. Aeroplane Heard on Coos Bay. MARSHFIKLD, Or.. June 20. (Spe cial.)
