"Indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble are, nine
times out of ten, due to acidity, there

ever possible, avoid eating food that is

that you should try a meal of any food

fare satisfactory to both Germany and
the United States could be evolved. |
His task, however, is realized as aj
different one because feeling among]
German officials and people, according
to reliable advices here has been that
the American government was seeking
to deprive Germany of its chief weapon
of offense—the submarine.
To-day's cabinet meeting began with
all members practically agreed that,
the United States cannot consider the
German reply responsive, and must
insist before the/ diplomatic corres
pondence can proceed further upon
an affirmative or negative answer to
the principle that lives of noncombat
ants cannot lawfully be imperilled on
the high seas, but must be transferred
to safety before a legitimate prize is
destroyed.
May Sever Relations
The purpose of the United States is
to keep its rejoinder on the same plane
as the note of May 13 to ascertain defi
nitely whether Germany will be guid
ed by the principles of law and hu
manity. Should a negative answer be
received diplomatic relations, it gener
ally Is believed, could not be continu
ed. An affirmative reply would be in
the nature of a guarantee against fur
ther violations of American rights in
the war zone and would make possible
a discussion of the facts in individual l
cases that have occurred.
The American point of view, briefly,
is not. the complete abandonment of
submarine warfare but of Its modifi
cation to such an extent as would
make submarines act as do other war
ships in dealing with the enemy's com
merce. Some arrangement whereby
merchant ships carrying passengers
would be definitely known as unarmed
vessels is one of the proposals which
it is generally suggested might make
the submarine able to exercise the
right to visit and search.
Von Bernstorff's Agent
Leaves United States
By Associated Press
New York, June 4. —Meyer Gerhard,
who is understood to be the agent
Ambassador Von Bernstorff is sending
to Berlin, sailed yesterday aboard the
steamer United States for Copenhagen,
It became known here to-day.
Mr. Gerhard's accommodations
aboard the vessel were engaged by
wireless less than two hours before
sailing time. Mr. Gerhard reached the
pier about five minutes before the ves
\ sel cast off. Until the receipt of the
telegram officials of the Scandinavian-
American line, owners of the steamer,
knew nothing of his plans to salh
Official documents bearing the' em
bassy or consular seals of Great Bri
tain, Russia and France, giving him
• guarantee against molestation by offi
cers of the allies' warships while on the
way were in his possession. Other
wise, it was said, he would not have
been permitted to take passage as the
line has been at great pains to ex
clude from Its passenger list any one
whose name or connections might
cause delays or detention of the ship
' by war vessels enroute to her destlna
-1 tton.
Mr. Gerhard registered under his own
! name, giving his home as New York
, city. Whether he Is an American citi
zen was unknown. He carried, in
■ addition to the official documents sign
ed by representatives of the allies' gov
ernments, official papers signed by
American, German and Austrian au
; thorlties, the nature of which was not
[ ascertained to-day. It was assumed
> however, that the German and Aus
-1 trian documents were his credentials
r to the German government.
> At the Rltz-Carlton Hotel, where
' Count Bernstorff stays when in New
! York, it was said to-day, that Mr. Ger-
I hard had been registered there but
ibad left yesterday saying that he was
I going to Washington. His quarters
at the hotel were still being held for
him to-day.
Von Jagow Intimates
Germany Will Not Give
Up Submarine Attacks
By Associated Press
Berlin, June 4, via London, 12.10
P. M.—The Kreuz Zeitung, tn its issue
of to-day, publishes the substance of
the Interview given to the Associated
Press May 30 by Gottlieb Von Jagow,
Imperial foreign secretary on Ger
many's answer to the Washington note
concerning the Uusltania case, in
which the secretary said he believed
it essential to establish a common
basis of fact before entering upon a
discussion of the Issues Involved.
This is done, the paper explains, on
the strength of the report reaching
Berlin from the Reuter Telegram
Company, of London, that the "forth
coming American note to Germany
foreshadows a severance of diplomatic
relations with Germany."
Continuing the Kreuz Zeitung says:
"We want to remind America once
more that Great Britain bears the re
sponsibility for the submarine war.
Germany would have stopped it had
Great Britain been willing to give
up her war of starvation. At one
time America could have exerted pres
sure og, Great Britain to this end, but
it did not do so.
"Now that the war of starvation has
failed, America comes forward with
the unusual proposal that we shall
stop the submarine war. Naturally
there can be no talk of this. Foreign
Secretary Von Jagow has pointed out
what can be done for the safety of
American passengers and American
ships. Americans again have been
shown the way to reconciliation and
the protection of their real interests.
"But it appears, if one may trust
the reports about the new note, that
they do not wish to find this way, but
rather do they desire to lend their
moral support to Great Britain, in
whose interests they long ago gave up
real neutrality. I,et them do it. the
vale of diplomatic relations with the
United States has to us become rather
imaginary."
Five Rioters Killed in
Mexico by an Italian
Laredo, Tex., June 4.—Tales of hun
ger riots, wanton looting and blood
shed subsequent to the evacuation of
Monterey by Villa troops were told
to-day by passengers arriving here
from that city. Five rioters were kill
ed and 12 wounded, it is declared by
Rafael Ferrigno, an Italian subject,
when a mob attempted to raid his tail
oring establishment. Ferrigno is said
to have been Imprisoned.
A police force organized by the Vil
la authorities prior to the evacuation,
the arrivals declare, proved powerless
to check the disorder but after three
(lays of lawlessness, vigilance commit
tess, made up of Mexicans and for
eigners. are reported to have brought
order by drastic methods. Men. wo
men and children participated in the
riots.

Cape Haitien. June 4.—Hostilities
between the revolutionists and the fed
eral forces are still going on. The
most recent developments are the cap
ture of Fort Vertleres and Fnrt Pierre

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
HOW THE ISLAND COAL WHARF WILL LOOK WHEN COMPLETED
HP: ; * -< C » "'■A* K*'
" *' «•* ' 4
In the accompanying sketch is conveyed some idea of the plan in detail of what the Harrisburg Light and
Power Company's coal wharf on the inland will look like when completed. The two little houses which will be
decorated to conform attractively to the background of greenery and the foreground of water will house, re
spectively the machinery that, will swing the booms and the "hooper" or receptacle for receiving all coal as it is
hoisted from the flats. The plan was submitted by Henry C. Pelton, the company's architectural engineer, at the
recent conference of the Planning Commission, the Park Commissioner and Park Expert. Manning.
EXPECT TO COMPLETE
WHARF IN TWO WEEKS
[Continued from First Page.]
but the woather prevented the trip
until to-day.
The concrete wall and th«s thousands
of yards of "fill" behind the wall has
all been placed and the carpenters
and riggers are putting the flnishinK
touches to the machine houses and
'hopper and erecting the great booms
that will hoist the coal from the flats.
The main boom of the derrick is 4G
feet high and the boom that will
swing out over the water will be 62
feet long. The booms are of single
piece 20-inch fir timbers which had
been brought from the forests of Ore
gon. The "clam" shovel which will
scoop up the coal weighs more than
half a ton and has a capacity of a ton
and a half.
Construction of the macadam road
way which will lead from the wharf
all the way to the Market street bridge
is well under way and is being put in
by the company. While the little
houses on the wharf will be painted
green and planted with vines, a lot of
willows will be placed on the filled in
ground below the landing place. The
broad expanse of dead white caused
by the coating of the concrete wharf
will be gradually turned to harmonize
with the color of the surrounding
greenery and the water with the ac
tion of the rains and rising streams.
DOCTORS OPPOSE MAYO GIFT

Within Fortultcbt. However
Special to The Telegraph
St. Paul, June 4. —• The affiliation
agreement between the $2,000,000 Mayo
foundation and the University of Min
nesota probably will be signed within
the next fortnight. Despite strong op
position by practitioners throughout
Minnesota the university board of re
gents has gone ahead with its negotia
tions and after two more public hear
ings probably will close the contract
calling for a six year test period for the
affiliation.
The opposition appears to come al
most wholly from the physicians of
Minnesota.

Future For Aircraft
By dssoeiatetl Press
Annapolis, Md., June 4. —Prediction
that the war aircraft of the not dis
tant future will he as fearful engines
of destruction as the dreaded under
sea craft was made by Secretary Dan
iels in addressing the graduating class
of the Naval Academy here to-day.
"What we have seen in these eagla
wings and eagle eyes of the army
and navy," he said, "is but the dawn
of the coining day when we shall make
the heavens carry our war craft as
easily as we navigate the sea with
our dreadnaughts."
Secretary Daniels spoke of the mar
velous development of the sub

the European war in pointing
out that the graduates in order to at
tain high place of honor must possess,
in addition to other indispensables,
