SAN FRANCISCO, July C The do-
feime of Mrs. Jlena Moonoy In tlio
bomb murder cases presented wit
liesses today with a view to Impeach
ing statements by wltnessoB for tho
prosecution.
"I liuvo a Rood thins now I am
a star witness In tho bomb murder
cases and when the trial Is over I
will go east on the cushions with a
nice piece of change loft" was the
gist of a statement that Fred Harris,
Salvation Army worker, testified had
been mudo to lilm by John McDonald
a waiter, who as a stule wltnoss said
he had seen Wuricn K. Hillings, ac
companied by Thomas J. Mooney,

explosion occurred last July, killing
ten persons. Billings and Mooney
who Is tho husband of Mrs. Mooney,
are under sontences of life Imprison.
mont and death, respectively, for
one of tho bomb murders.
The stute contends the oxploslvo
was enclosed in a suitcase and that
tho five bonilb defendants originally
planned to hurl it in tho ranks of the
street car employes marching In tho
preparedness day parade, because tun
men refused to strlko at the lnstauco
of tho Mooneys. .
To refute this theory, tho dofenso
called Captain of Detoctivos Duncan
Mathoson, who tostiried that the di
vision of car employes formed at a
point a block away from tho sceno
of the carnugo. Edwin McKonzle, ono
of coiinsol for the dofenso, doclared
that had the alloged conspirators de
sired revonge for the refusal of the
car workers to join in a strike, the
bomb would have been placed, In
their ranks.
Chief of l'ollco n. A. White testified
that he had given orders that all au
tomobiles were to bo kept off Mar
ket street during the parado and told
of tho efforts which had boen mado
to enforce tho ordor. State witness
es testified that they hud soen a Jit

A TERRIBLE WEAPON OF TERRORISM
AMOXG the weapons of terrorism originated and util
ised bv the Geriharis, which discounts eyeri 'poison
gas and liquid fire, is the distribution of disease germs
among enemy people and livestock. There is every reason
to believe that the typhus and other epidemics that have
decimated the Serbs, Ji'umans and Russians were part and
parcel of the diabolical propaganda of ruthlessness which
has caused such unspeakable
humanity.
"We have the word of the
assertion that her own child
eating candy containing deadly germs dropped by German
aviators, who sought thus to spread plague and pestilence
over the enemy's country; and now is presented indisnut-,
able evidence lhat before war was declared members of
the Ge rman legation at Bucharest, protected by their im
inanities, were preparing to
a Inendly neutral state criminal attempts against the
security and lives of the people.
In the presence of a member of the American legataion,
it a? n . i . , . . . . 7
ineii representing uerman interests m Jtumama, tnere was
dug up in the garden of the German embassy at Bucharest,
where Ihey had been hastily buried upon the dismissal of
f he German diplomats, in packages bearing the seal of the
imperial German consulate, fifty infernal machines and
six test tubes containing cultures of the anthrax and glan
ders oaciui. J iiese Had been brought in by German diplo
matic, couriers, exempted by international privilege from
scrutiny.
The bacilli packages were marked:
By King's Messenger! Very Secrot! Not to be Thrown! ! !
To the lioyal Colonel und Military Attache Ills Honour Herr von
Hammerstoln: ' I
Uorcwlth 4 tubes for horses and 4 for horned cattle. For use as di
rected. Each tube sufficient lor 200 head, if possible, administer thru
the anlmal'B mouth; If not, In Its fodder, i
Should he obliged for a little report on success with you. If there
should be good news to report, Herr K.'s presence here for a day desir
able. y
The infernal machines were' in the form of fifty zinc
cartridges containing high explosives, with nitrate of am
monium and trotyl as their
ot each cartridge being powerf ul enough to destroy a sec
tion of railroad tracka bridge pier, a large Iniilding or
serve to mine a road.
It was evident that while still at peace with Rumania,
Germany was planning a scries of outrages to cripple in
dustry, similar to those inaugurated in the United States
by Bernstorff and his agents, and in addition scheming to
destroy the livestock with an epidemic that would also
infect humans.
Could human ingenuity cro further in devisinrr inhu
manity to man than the Prussian jugger has in his regime
of terror? For has he not "made a covenant with death,
and with hell is at agreement"? No wonder ho is called
the "Anti-Christ," as he profanely and blasphemously
proclaims his partnership with God. May his fate be tLa't
of another conouerinir scouriro. of whom it was written .
"I will make thee a terror,
tho thou be sought for, yet
again.
A Series of Striking Coincidences
Tlio Literary Digest of recent issue
culls attention to a number of pro
phetic discoveries regurilinir the
present great war.
It also points out certain striking
coincidences, among others the fuel
that certain rulers among the allies
figure out tho same number of years
when taking their dates of birth, ns
cension to power, number of years in
office ami present ngo.
A still more remarkable thing is the
fact Unit this is true of each ruler
of the ten nations upon the side of
the allies.

It is observed thai one-half of
1814 is 1017. It is also noted that
two hemispheres are represented in
tliis great war, which is the reason
for dividing by two, and it is conjec
tured that the year 1917 will see the
close of tho war.
That this may be true is further
supported by an interpretation of the
Will chapter of Hevelntion. "The
beast" there spoken of is held to be
the kaiser of (lermnny, who will be
given power for forty-two months
(Rev. 1.1:5). Forty-two months add
ed to the date of the beginning of the
war, July, 1014, brings the day of his
power to an end January, 1018. This
is practically the same thing as clos
ing at the end of I!)17.
That the beast spoken of in the
lDlli chapter of Revelations means
the kaiser is arrived at in the follow
ing manner:
There are six letters in the word
kaiser. Each letter lakes a numer
ical place in (he alphabet. (living
each letter its numerical value and
annexing the number (I of which the
word "kaiser" is made up, you have
Hie bible number of litili. See licv.,

A 1-0
I - 0-tl
S 10.(1
E Ti-li
R - 18-ti '
(ititi, or (he number of "the
henst."
If the kaiser is the beast referred
to in the 11th chapter of Revelation,
and it certainly rends very much lhat
way, the above conjectures and coin
cidences may have some meaning.
If the above is wi I hunt meaning,
what do you make of it, anvwav?

HUNT APPOINTED
FEDERAL MEDIATOR
WASHINGTON', .lulv . Former
Governor (I. W. I'. Muni of Arizona
today was appointed bv the depart
ment of labor a federal conciliator,
to assist other conciliators already in
the field, attempting to settle the
strike of metal workers in Al irons.
With Medford trade la Medrord mailt
JVL'TTE, Mont., July G. A commit
tee representing the Metal Mine
Workers' union, which declared n
strike on the mining companies for
higher pay and changed working con
ditions, went into conference today
with international labor union repre
sentatives, who want to know the at
titude of metal miners toward the
Amcricun Federation of Labor. W.
If. Roilgers, federal mcdiulor, was a
member of the conference.
The Metal Mine Workers' union,
according to the mining companies, is
controlled by the Industrial Workers
of the World. The union's press
committee, in a signed statement, has
said that it will not affiliate with any
international body of laboring men
until the strike has been won. It was
said that unless the metal miners
agree to affiliate with tho American
Federation of Labor that nil support
will ho withdrawn by union labor and
that nn effort will be made to organ
ize another union of miners in sym
pathy with tho American Federa
tion. The beginning of the end of the
electricians' striko for higher wages
from the Molilalia power company is
expected to conic tonight when Presi
dent F. J. McN'ulty of Hie electricians,
who is here, from Washington, ad
dresses the electricians' union. Oilier
international union representatives
assert that Air. McNulty will advise
the electricians to accept the com
pany's counter proposal, which will
give the electricians more money than
they demanded.
More men reported for work at the
mines today than any day since the
strike wufi called by the miners over
three weeks ago. The smeller at Ana
conda resinned operations today with
a .weed's supply of ore on hand.

WASHINGTON, July 6. Censor
ship of outgoing cables undoubtedly
will bo mado much more rigid to pre
vent spies from sending information
to the enemy. Many officials believe
information is reaching Germany
now in the form of commercial mes
sages cabled from the United States
to European neutral countries. Al
ready it is said the government in
eases that excite suspicion is clmng
ing the wording of messages.
Reports that Uerman insurance
companies operating in this country
have easy access to confidential in
formation having to do with shipping
and the dispatch of troops has
prompted (he government to investi
gate their activities. 'Secretary Red-
field said today he thought the oper
ation if these companies should he
kept under a close and continuous
scrutiny. ,

TO EFFECT WAR'S
COPENHAGEN, July 6. Captain
Von Salzmann, military critic ot the
Vosslche Keltung of Berlin, devoted
t two-column article to the military
Influence of America on the war,
which he says Is already evident and
that the effects must not be under
estimated. Captain Von Salzmann assures his
readers that with, regard to quality
the American soldiers will not at
tain the standard of brilliance char
acterizing the French and German
armies or their talent In leadership,
finesse In execution and quickness
of decision, but that America's mili
tary contribution, like Great Brit
ain's, will find expression in numbers
and mechanical application of brute
power. America' numbers, he writes.
are counted upon by the entente in
respect of men, artillery and partic
ularly aviators. Incorporated in di
visional units with British and French
troops as Captain Von Salzmann ex-
pects tho American forces to ibe, he
says they will be worthy opponents.
Nevertheless, the Americans will
not affect the result on the western
front, he writes in conclusion, because
Field (Marshal Von Hlndenburg says
the submarine will force a decision
before they become a decisive factor.
DENMARK ABLE'
TO FEED PEOPLE
COPENHAGEN, July C The gov
ernment, appointed in April, to In
vestigate the problem of the food sup
ply, reports that Denmark will be
able to feed the population from
home supplies, but it will have to
reduce livestock and meat production
to a certain extent on the basis of
the amount of home grown fodder
available after the necessary amount
for human consumption is furnished.
One of the first results of these In
vestigations Is an order forbidding
entirely the export of swine fat suit
able for human consumption, the ex
port ot which, according to the re
port, has been between 80,000 and
100,000 kilograms weekly.
Altho It is not so stated in the
commission's report, it is probably
based on assumption that the prohi
bition of the use of home-grown
grain for brewing and distilling, en
forced during the pending two years,
will be continued. About 60.0SO.000
kilograms of food materials, largely
maize and barley, was consumed in
1916 by the brewing and distilling

M. Stauning, socialist minister with

This will put an end to the parlia

M. Staunlng's activities at Stock

CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS
You simply say to the drug store
man, "Give me a quarter ot aa ounce
of freezone." This will cost very little
but is sufficient to remove every hard
or soft corn from one's feet.
A few drops of this new ether com
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn should relieve the sore
ness instantly, and Boon tho entire corn,
root and all, dries up and caa be lifted
out with tho fingers.
Tills new way to rid one's feet oi
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that, while freezone Is
sticky, it dries in a moment, and sim
ply shrivels up tho corn without in.
