"Stay-at-Hbmes" Anger Leader
With Stories of Troops'
Hardships None
Would Desert
SERYICE BENEFITED MEN
Considerable resentment 'U being' ex
pressed by omcers of th First and Third
Regiments because of the frequent criticisms
which have been aimed at .the efficiency of'
the National Guard by ''stay-at-hoihes" and
others who have Joined the' various factions
In the preparedness movement They are
angered because of statements that the ma
jority of the national guardsmen were dls
igpsted with their experience on the border,
'ahd' would desert or find other means of
'severing their connection with the guard an
Boon as possible.
An officer of the. Third Regiment Bald to
day; "Certain persons have taken advan
tags of every opportunity to attack the effi
ciency of the ''Notional Guard and to other
wise belittle tho organisation In the eyes of
tho public ;: .
"In lS98f,,coh(3tlonln the guard were
rather bad;;and''hUndrd of troopers died
from bad i sanitation ond from eatlnr bad
food. ThAvguard tnjs93 was also badly
trained; Officers Issued) -orders, and tho' men
did not Wbow enough about military disci
pline to obey those ".orders.
"But. we have an enj'fely different situa
tion the National Gukqjt today. Take the
Third JBsglment for Instance? this regiment
wtienlt went to tho 'front was composed of
SL-lot of pale, lanky boys. "We have brought
them back In better condition than when
they went' away. They are no longer boys,
, tut seasoned, hardened men, ready for any
t emergency,
"And yet -tho. publlo as a wholo seems
against us;, seems to have little confidence
In the, National Guard. On the way to the
border alse tales were circulated concern
ing us. It was. reported that we had In
sufficient camp and artillery equipment, and
' that we were In a deplorable state of dis
organization. On. the way back homo the
fa(pe report was circulated that our food
supply 'was Insufficient, and what there was
of It warbad.
"The facta are that the Pennsylvania
- guardsmen are In the pink of condition.
We did not have, one death from disease
all the tlmo we were on the border, and
from a military standpoint we' made a rec
ord of which wo are proud, Thesa stories
about the guardsmen being discontented
.and that they would desert It they could
are absolutely false. We have not a dis
satisfied man In our regiment, and I have
yet to hear of one In any other regiment
that Is dissatisfied.
"In the matter of preparedness the cltl-
, lens of 'this, country can have two things
a large standing' army, which means com-
pulsory military service, or a citizen sol-
, dlery. It strikes me that the National
Guard is the nearest thing to a cltlien
soldiery we can have hero. A large stand
ing arm with compulsory military service
I not to be thought of, because It would
entail too great a burden upon the people,
. "The National ..Guard has proved Its effi
ciency by Its record on the bolder. It's time
s that the. Knockers threw away their ham
mers and gave us a little appreciation. The
first real bit of preparedness enthusiasm
I have' witnessed In Philadelphia since the
beginning of the European War was ex
pressed when the First and Third Regl
tnenta came marching home from the
border this tweek. We need a lot more of
this spirit."
It Is expected that the membern of the
First and Third Regiments wilt be mus
tered out of the UnlUd Btatrs service about

A strong-probability that the milk dealers
of Philadelphia would agree to pay the ad
vanced price asked by the farmers during
the winter period with tho stipulation that
the price be reduced In tho spring nnd
summer when thero Is an overproduction
of milk was Indicated today from several
authentic sources.
C. It Llndback, president of the Abbott
Alderney Dairies, said ho thought that tho
dealers would agree to such an arrange
ment, and Charles S, Calwell, chairman
of the agricultural committee of the Phila
delphia Chamber of Commerce, hinted at
such an arrangement when he said: "It
seems certain that the dealers cannot af
ford to pay five and one-halt cents for
milk all the year round. Especially In the
summer when tliere Is always an overpro
duction of milk, It would be disastrous for
them to pay that price. The market would
be glutted with milk, and It would spoil on
their hands."
Mr, Llndback said he was certain that
the points at Issue between the farmers and
dealers could 'be successfully Arbitrated by
a disinterested party, such as the Agricul
tural Commlttoe of tho Philadelphia Cham-'
bcr of Commcrco.
MAY BOOST PRICES,
"Of course," said Mr. Llndback, "If the
farmers as a unit demand six cents for
tholr milk, we will probably have to pay It
BuUwe have not given up hope that there
will bo a reasonable settlement I think
that the dealers would agree to paying the
price asked by tho farmers during the win
ter months, when milk Is scarce. If the
farmers agree to drop the price In the sum
mer, when there Is a decided overproduc
tion. We hope to Induce tho conservative
members of the farmers' organizations to
eeo tho light There nre many fair men
among the farmers, and we aro certain
that they do not wish to work any Injustice
upon the dealers or public Wo wish to
avoid a milk strike If possible; but, of
course, the dealers will stand by their rights.
The Chamber of Commerce, we are con
vinced, will arbitrate this matter."
Tho agricultural committee of the
Chamber of Commerco heard the dealers'
side of the case yesterday at a secret con
ference In the board room of the Corn Ex
change Bank, and Mr. Calwell, chairman
of the committee, stated today that officers
of tho farmers' organizations would be
asked to present their views before tho
committee within a week. At this meeting
It Is expected that tho matter of raising the
price during tho winter months, and lower
ing It In tho summer, will be presented to
the farmers as a basis for arbitration.
SKTTLKMENT IN SIGHT
Hope of an amicable settlement between
the farmers and the dealers was expressed
today by Mr, Calwell ,
"I am of tho opinion' ald Mr, Calwell,
"that the farmers should havo a higher
price tor their milk how much higher, I
don't know. I think that most of the milk
dealers realise that the farmers must have
'a fair price In order to keep up production.
They "don't want "to do anything to dis
courage, production of milk,
"The milk dealers claim that their .profit
oa milk Is only a quarter of a cent So It
Is certain that It tho farmers raise the price
the retail price will have to be raised to
give the dealers a profit
"Representatives of the farmers ore com
ing before our committee within a week,
and we will hear their side of the case.
The function of this committee Is merely to
conduct a fair Investigation, so that both
sides may be presented to the public. The
farmers are sensible men, and we believe
that they will show a willingness to do what
Is right"
C. P. Preston, director of the Chester
County Farm Bureau, and one of tho organ
izers of an association of farmers In Chester
County to boost the price of milk, declared
today that the farmers In he entire Phila
delphia milk zone would within three or
four weeks demand 6W cents per quart
from the Philadelphia dealers. He said that
the farmers would also Insist that the
freight charges be shifted from the farmer
to thf dealer. The freight charges amount
to about one-half per cent per quart and
this means that Philadelphia dealers will
be asked six cents per quart for milk.
FARMERS BELLIGERENT
"If the dealer attempt tofiiold up the
farmers and refuse our price we will give
them a showdown in short order. There
will be no dickering with the rollk dealers
of Philadelphia. We are perfecting fighting
organlsaUons In Chester; Lancaster. Dela
ware, Bucks and Montgomery counties, and
similar unions of farmers aro being formed
In South Jemey, Maryland and Delaware.
In a short time we will be able to present a
seHd frent to Philadelphia dealers.
"There are apfxexltaateiy 49,000 oows In
Chester County, and the milk from every
eoe pf these awp at preeent goes'toThlla1
detohla, If the dealer won't meet this prise
they cannot have our mHk."
Asked what he thought the dealer of
Philadelphia should oliarge the consumer to
meet the advance In prlee proposed by the
farmers, Mr, Preston Midi

By PERRY ARNOLD
PIKESVILLE, Ky Oct . Charles E.
Hughes Is determined not to make any an
swer to the charge that he represent the
Herman-American vote. He regarls him
self as potentially a President He holds
It his duty neither by word nor deed to
walk Into any trap which shall seem to
commit him, n man who may bo chosen in
November to dictate America's position to
ward the world, to any specifics course of
action with regard to European policies.
This explanation of the candidate n atti
tude Is presented by permission today.
When Hughes discusses and condemns
the British blacklist It is further explained
It Is not with the Idea of an animus against
Qreat Britain. When he hits at the subma
rine warfare and the Wilson Administration
handling of that Issue he does not speak
with a mind biased ngalnsfQermany. He
speaks as one who regards America'! op
portunity as the greatest otrneutral na
tions, the most momentous to America her
self and to the other nations of the world
In establishing firmly the principles of
neutrality. '
MR. HUOHES'S POSITION
To those with whom he talked on the
subject, Oovernor Hughe has added to this
statement of pcsltlon the following:
America must leave no stone unturned to
onforce against any nation her rights as
a world Power. By so doing, the United
States not only maintains her own dignity
as a nation, but she establishes more firmly
the principles of justice contained In Inter
national law. International 'law, the Oov
ernor holds. Is not a fixed code. It Is a
collection of principles to whlcn nations
subscribe. Thoee principles become fixed
only when some great nation establishes
their justice and fairness by demand, un
flinchingly maintained, for their fullest
observance. If the United States can ac
complish this fixation of principles of In
ternational law by holding all nations
strictly accountablo to the spirit of the now
only nebulous principles of International
law, America will have her opportunity to
become foremost among world Powers.
RESENTS "JOCKEYING"
The Republican candidate, It la said for
him, feels very strongly the delicacy of his
position as a presidential candidate in this
time when International law Is 'In the mak
ing. He Is extremely resentful of any
jockeying by either his friends or his polit
ical foes, which ntempts to align him with
either the Allies or the Central Powers. He
doe not desire In any utterance to mention
the name of a single one of the warring
Powers, lest some incorrect deduction be
made from that mention. But In ev
speech from now on he expects to reli
ate In cmphatlo language his disavow'
that he has any understanding or agree
ments or intrigues with anybody.

YEARS' CONFEffllENT
Insane Ruler Expires in Castle.
Ordered Soldiers to Attack

War
WAS LOVER OF MUSIC
COPENHAGEN, Oct 12. King Otto of
Bavaria, a "mad king," died suddenly at
the Castle of Feurstenrled, where he has
been confined, Insane, for many years.
The "mad king" of . Bavaria, about
seventy years old at the time of his death,
.1 .rt !! Rurons bv his eccentricities be
fore he was declared Incapable of rullng-
bn November S, 1913, ond succeeded by ms
cousin. King Ludwlg HI.
He had nominally succeeded his brother.
King Ludwlg II, In 1816, when Ludwlg
committed suicide by throwing himself Into
a lake during a fit of Insanity. His uncle,
the regent Leopold, was however, the real
ruler of Bavaria.
During the Franco-Prussian war Otto
first showed Insanity when he called out a
squad of cavalry to make a charge against
a straight stone wall. The stone wall, he
said, was a body of French infantry. Later
he was summoned by the Kaiser to head
quarters and It was reported letters wer.e
found in his possession offering to make
ceace with France. He was then put under
a medical escort
Several years ago the "mod king" was
Imprisoned In tho Fuerstenrled Castle.
Though In the midst of rich furnishings he
Is reported to have lived like a savage, re
fusing to have his hair or nails cut and
.avoiding water and soap. For days he
would retuso food. Imagining It to be
poisoned. His attendants Anally persuaded
him to eat by pretending to hide food
about the palace. The "mad king" then
"discovered" tho food and, believing It had
been hidden by the servants to satisfy their
own appetites, ate It with the greatest
relish. He was passionately fond of grand
opera, summoned well-known singers to
his castle prison and often spent days
listening to operas.
On April 27 of each year King Otto was
examined by a Government commission
charged with the duty of reporting on his
sanity, A few years ago he became seri
ously 111 from a carbuncle on his' neck and
was believed to be dying.

LANNIN TO Fiairr
It Is whispered, that Lanntn will fight
any move by Johnson to oust him from
Boston, but It will be remembered that Just
after the 1912 series, when the Red Sox
won the world's championship by defeating
the Giants, Jimmy McAleer was forced to
sell the Boston franchise because of the
ticket scandal.
At the" time McAleer also declared that
he would fight Johnson to the limit but It
appears that there Is some arrangement
In the American League which makes John
son absolute boss. Johnson has been called
the "Cxar" of baseball becauso of the
manner In which he has bossed the Ameri
can League, and those on the Inside de
clare that he will get away with hla plan
to oust Lanntn. -f
DENIALS EXPECTED
Until all arrangements" have been mail.
to transfer the franchise It Is likely that
a denial will ,be made by Johnson and the
American League magnates, but we got
our Information from a source that Is
authentic, and the fan can depend upon
It that Joe Lannln will not be the owner
of the Boston Red Sox when the first of,
the year Is here.
There Is no attempt to deny that Car
rlgan will retire, and BUI said to us that
nothing can Induce him to change his de
cision. He say that It I not a matter of
money and that he Is making no attempt
to hold up the owners for a larger salary,
but that he merely has tired of the worry
and strain. Carrlgan claims that he has
saved a great deal of the money he ha
made In baseball and has been lucky with
his Investments In Lewtson, Me., and will
devote his entire time to looking after hla
home interest,
LAST SEASON, SAYS CARRIGAN
"Win, lose or draw." said Carrlgan this
snornlng, "this I my last year in baseball,
and today will be my last day In a baseball
uniform, I believe and hope. I am not a
hold-out, and If they put 810,000 on top of
my present salary It would be Just the same
wim ma 'mere naa been no friction, and
Jo Lannln always ha treated me great
but I am tired of the game and am retiring
because lt' a matter of preference.

man. I would rather get up at in the
moralng. working at another business, Just
a I did when I ran my grocery store In
Lewleton a few year ago, than to go
.through the worry I have In recent years,
v "I have aged a great deal for a fellow so
young, but that I because I take baseball
too seriously. Some fellows forget the
game as soon as they take oil their uni
forms, even when they are managers; but
I eeuld not do It Bill Carrlgan I throu
for good, and you can't aaake It tea strong.
Today will be mt last day la a baseball
uniform, I believe."
