hostilities with the I'liited Slutcs
were further supported tiidny by
lispnlcli lo the irovcrniucnt from Ku-
rojie.
'file full nature of Ihe government's
infortunium is not disclosed but it
was received from one of the neutrals
contiguous to Germany which lias
served as u clearing bouse fur (ier
niait information since the severance
of diiiloinntie relations.
it was reported at Ihe i-.ource of
origin of Ihe (rovcniineut's informa
tion tlint more Ihnn n score of Oer
mnn submarines were already in Mex
ican .utters. Persons here who have
been pvinjj; ultention to Ihe subject
think Hie estimate of numbers is
hifji but feel no doubt Hint German
submarines arc somewhere on this
side of the Allanli , most, probably
in Mexicnn wulers and Ihul some of
theiii linve been there since early ii
February.
There is no doulil Hint if the 1'
boals are in the c.ulf Ihey nrc beinr
supplied from Mexicnn shore bases.
Those who hold these views also are
convinced Hint snmcthintr closely np
pronehiin': the urrnuizcmcnls proposed
by Koreinn Minister Zimmermmin in
his eclebrnted ciiiutntiuicntion intend
ed for (teiieral t'nrriinza, have bee'i
nebicved cud that Ihe whole mailer
incluiliiiv the supplying of submnrincs
from Mexican shores was arranired
by Mexican Minister Zuliuran in Her-liu.
Kaiser Wilbclm II. Kour Austrian
steamships also are tied up here.
All Ships Disabled.
Iteports to the treasury department
confirm statements that virtually
every ship has been disabled. The
extent of the duinuf!c will be deter
mined ns speedily as possible.
There are Home indications that Hie
vessels will be requisitioned by the
government for Inins-Atlanlie trade
or as naval auxiliaries for at least
Hie period of the war. i, '
i Officials assarted that , this point
was slill under deliberation but, that
"an intelligent us'e" would be miide of
Ihe vessels, , fSo far as the lowners'
rights ii iltis vessels are concerned,

Eczema Is Conquered
Greasy salves and ointments should
not be applied if good clear skin is
wanted. From any druggist for 25c or
$1.00 for extra large size, get a bottle
of zemo. When applied as directed, it
effectively removes eczema, quickly
stops itching, and heals skin troubles,
also sores, burns, wounds and chafing.
It penetrates, cleanses and soothes.
Zemo is a clean, dependable and inex
pensive, penetrating, antiseptic liquid.
Try it, as we believe nothing you have
ever used is as effective and satisfying,
