In order to defray expenses inci dental to the campaign for Hughes In this county, a request was made by the Alliance that its members eon tribute some amount from 25 cents p. A considerable sum was raised among those present at the meeting. There is no obligation upon members to make contribution, and their offer ings are voluntary.

SPECIAL ROASTS 15c TO t)0c PER POUND KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY Quality First JAPANESE CABINET (Continued from page 1.) as to reasons for the reported resig nations," Sato said. "There was no intimation that the Okuma cabinet anticipated such a step when I left Japan. It Is not true that Marquis Okuma did not control the cabinet. He was working In harmony with the administration and reports to the con trary are mere conjectures of persons who sre uninformed. If subsequent events prove the reported reslgnstlon true, it 'will occasion no disturbance in Japan. "I can not understand why the re signations should have been offered. for the Okuma cabinet was bscked by a strong party organisation." Dr. Sato will be the guest of Seattle's leading public men at a ban quet tonight and will leave tor Wash ington tomorrow morning. Washington, Oct. 3. Persistent opposition of the Japanese upper, non-elective house of parliament to the policies of Premier Okuma Is re sponsible for his reslgnstlon, news of which was cabled from Toklo today. This is the belief of the embassy here. Oknma's party controlled the ma jority of the lower house, but a coali tion of other parties In the upper house was formed against him. It Is said Okuma has tor some weeks felt unable to continue the government and face the npper house when It convenes in December. It Is understood the premier hss been contemplating resigning for some months and has been waiting for a time when he thought he could arrange a successor from his own party. Viscount Kato. former min ister of foreign affairs under Okuma, snd now lesder of the letter's party In the lower house. Is said to be the candidate of that body and ot Okuma for the premiership. Oknma's op ponents in the npper house are advo cating the appointment of Count Mar shal Terauchl, now governor of Korea. Terauchl, with the title of marshal, has the highest rank In the Japanese army. Marquis Okuma Is 79 years old and has been premier for two and a half years. It Is considered likely that his advanced years have something to do with his desire to retire. CROSS TIE DANUBE London, Oct. 3. The Roumanian force which invaded Bulgaria Sunday is believed to be moving southward against the Important Kustchuk Varna railway. Tbe size of the army tbat crossed the Danube is not known here, but English military critics to day declared they believed It was composed of at least 20,000 men.

Immelmann's note told how Frank, who is a British airman, had engaged the German aviator in a sky duel and how the Englishman, sorely wounded and with his observer dead beside him. brought his aeroplane to the ground, where he was taken prisoner. Immelmann and hla associate Ger man aviators, moved by admiration for their defeated antagonist, risked their lives to deliver a note address ed to Grlmwade's father. With shells bursting about them, they flew over the allied lines and dropped the mes- ssge, which wss delivered to the elder Grimwade In Melbourne many weeks later. He started east this afternoon.
