WILSON'S POLICY CAUSE OF TROUBLE Beginning of Wrongs Endured in Connection With War, Fall Says Special to the Telegraph Washington, D. C., Aug. 7.—When Senator Lewis had concluded his at tack upon Charles Evans Hughes in which he defended President Wilson's j Mexican policy, Senator Fair said that I the President's Mexican policy was the 1 beginning and cause of all the trouble this country had endured in connec tion with the war in Europe. "When have you or your President," \ he demanded of the Democratic Sen ators, "ever taken one step to protect the lives of Americans—l do not sav | their property—in Mexico? When, have you ever demanded reparation for the killing of those Americans who ; have lost their lives in Mexico? When I have you ever avenged the wrongs 1 upon American women? Will the Senator answer that question? No, he cannot answer it, and it was just by reason of the attitude of Wilson to ward Mexico that Germanv knew when you told her you would hold her to strict accountability in case of injury to Americans in her submarine warfare that you lied. When have you obtained reparation from Mexico for the killing of Americans? When have you obtained that strict accoun tability you so boastfully talked of from Germany?" Senator Gallingerat this point asked Senator Fall how many Americans had been killed in Mexico. "According to a list I have here and which I have personally verified." re plied Senator Fall, "267 Americans STEELTON MINIATURE CIRCUS AT BLOCK PARTY Ring and Animal Acts, Clowns and Freaks Few of the Attractions | Three nights of clean amusement ; are promised patrons of the "block j party" to be held In North Second j street, between Conestoga and Jeffer- I son streets, staring- to-morrow evening | and closing Thursday evening, August 10.

The New Mexico Senator said that the most astounding thing in Senator Lewis' speech was his statement that at one time the Wilson administration was prepared to recognize Villa. "You denounce the Republicans for preventing Wilson from recognizing Villa, whom you and your President at the time knew to be a murderer, a lier, a thief, an assassin for hire and the most vicious character in Mexico." Replying to the statement of Lewis that the Republicans should not have precipitated the trouble with Mexico by opening fire on Wilson's Mexican policy, Senator Fall said that the Sen ator belonged to class who believe that the campaign cry should not be, "I am for America and America only!" but rather, "I am for Woodrow Wilson and him only!" In their opinion, he said, "any person who was against Wilson was a traitor to his country," Designer of Deutschland Resting at Buena Vista Naval Constructor William Gotthold ! | Prusse, designer of the Deutschland, I has gone to Buena Vista Springs, in j Franklin county, where he will spend j a month.

Pope to Protest Exportation of French Girls to Germany By Associated Press Paris, Aug. 7.

The number of unwounded Turks captured by the British at the battle at Romani was 3145, acording to an official statement issued by the War Office to-day. The statement says that the Turks were pursued for'lß miles. The pursuit con tinued beyond Katia, which is 23 miles east of the Suez canal. The net results of the battle of Romani are the destruction of more than one-fourth of the Turkish effec tives and the pushing or the remainder out into the blazing desert beyond the Katia Oases," said Major General B. F. Maurice, director of military opera tions of the imperial general staff in explaining to the Associated Press to day the signiflcance of the latest operations in the Near East. Entente Rulers Are Mopeful in Messages to George V London, Aug. 7.—Answers to the telegrams he sent to the heads of var ious Entente Allied nations on the second anniversary of Great Britain's entry into the war have been received by King George. The message from Emperor Nicholas of Russia said: "I am equally determined that we in Russia shall make good the sacri fices which my brave troops and peo ple have given to a cause which will bring the reward we seek, and that the peace for which we fight shall be secured by complete victory over our anemies." From the Emperor at Japan the following was received: "After all the trials of the great defensive battle, the indomitable armies of the Allies are now march ing forward, steadily and successfully, on all fronts. I beg your Majesty to believe I am entirely in accord with you in the strong determination to carry on the struggle until our com mon cause for right and freedom shall be fully vindicated." The message from King Peter of Serbia said he had received with sat isfaction the fresh testimony of an "inflexible determination to bring about the triumph of the noble cause." British Make Gains in High Wood After Big Fight London, Aug. 7.—Another day's des perate fighting on the Somme front and before Verdun gained a little ground for the British In the High Wood, a little for the French near Estrees and left the positions along the Meuse un changed. The fighting, aside from the constant heavy artillery fire, was forc ed almost entirely by the German coun ter-attacks, all of which failed after desperate efforts and with hqavy losses. Far more Important than yesterday's gains so far as learned is the unofficial Information from the Somme front re vealing the great value of the ground won by the British Saturday. Accord ing to private advices the successes in the last three days are far greater than was indicated in the official re ports. The great military value attached to Hill 160, the dominating height of the Albert Plateau, which Is now entirely in British hands, and in the High Wood, a part of the Foureaux Wood, and only less dominating. The capture of these leaves General Haig in position to un dertake new and Important operations almost at once. The Brltah Gain* The ground gained by the British along the front of 3.000 yards north and CASTORIA For Infants and Ciiiidrw. Bears the _ AUGUST 7, 1916.' west of Pozleres to the depth of from a quarter to nearly half a mile was not merely fortified to the last degree, but was defended with the utmost stub bornness by the best troops In the German army. The terrific bombardment which pre ceeded the attack, however, was so ef fective that the British were able to ad vance In some places "with their guns on their shoulders," and it was only hours after the ground designated had been occupied that the Germans were able to bring up reinforcements. The capture of Hill 160 gives the Brit ish tremendous advantage in the next move. It 's a commanding site for ar tillery, which from its slopes can en filade the German lines to the north, making the villages of Courcelette and j Miraument practically untenable im mediately. Thelpval is also seriously threatened. Six Villages Are Taken as Russians Claim They Have 3,000 More Prisoners London, Aug. 7.—Following up their sharp blow of Saturday and Friday against the Austrian lines south of Brody, along the Rivers Graberki and Sereth, the Russians have swept in six more villages, an entire ridge of com manding heights, and 3,000 more prison ers. In the two days' battle which has given General Sakharoffs troops suc cesses vitally important to their drive against Lemberg and Von Bothmer's flank along the SUrypa, more than 5,500 of he enemy's soldiers have been made prisoners. That the Russian claims of marked progress in this region are not un founded is proved by the German offi cial admission last night that posses sion of the west bank of the Sereth has been wrested from the Teuton i forces. Berlin also records advanced I actions before the army of Von Both mer. Austrian* In Desperate Position Although the check which the Czar's forces in Galicia received last week re lieved somewhat the threat which their northern advance had brought against Von Bothmer, the successes which have crowned the latest Russian efforts so.uth of Brody have again put the Austrian j lines on the west bank of the Strypa !in a dangerous position. If Sakharoffs army shows further signs of sweeping advance to the southwest, where it will be aiming at the life lines of the Aus trian troops, it is not believed that Von Bothmer will hesitate any longer about retreating in swift order to his prepar ed lines behind the Bug and Gnila Pina, there to make his last stand in defense of Lemberg. On the Stakhod line the influence of Von Hindenburg is already being felt in the stiffening of the Austro-German lines and in the growing fury of their counter-attacks. In the Carpathians the recognized army of Pflanzer is continuing Its har assing of the Russian left wing south of Kuly, but it is more of a defensive than an offensive movement and can have no effect upon the Russian opera tions along the Dniester. Germany Adopts Heroic Measures to Fill Ranks Amsterdam, Aug. 7.—lt is clear from Information reaching Holland that the last two months have been spent bv the German military staff in in re adjusting home military arrangements in order to release every single a\ ail able fighting man. livery garrison has been practically cleared of every train ed man, leaving a minimum of in efficients with experienced officers for any normal and possibly abnormal du ties that may arise in towns through out Germany. This latest, and probably last, mus tering of men obtained a very con siderable addition to the fighting forces. The men thus collected have been sent to certain centers within easy reach of the east or west fronts. Cologne -ecently had to provide room for 130,000 men. Germany's man-pow er may, therefore, be regarded as now at absolute maximum on all fronts. Kaiser Is Returning to Front in France Berlin, Xug. 7. —The Kaiser on his way from the east to the west front spent several hours in Berlin yesterdav calling on Chancellor van Bethmann- Hollweg and also conferring with Vice Chancellor von Helfferich, who recent ly returned from a political visit to Saxony with Finance Minister Count Roedern and "Food Dictator" Batoeki. In political circles it was later said that the themes of the conference were the excellent food outlook and the im proved conditions preparatory to the work for the flotation of the new war loan and the latest favorable develop ments In the Rumanian situation. The Imperial shift from east to west was generally internreted as indicat ing that Rumania and the great Rus sian offense have now sunk to second ary importance and that the center of military gravity is again shifting west ward. Death For Germans at Every Turning in V/est With the British Armies in France, Aug. 6 (via London, Aug. 7).—Under a merciless concentration of shell-fire, the Austrians are holding on to their gains after their advance Saturday night on a front of two miles. The Germans already have delivered three powerful counter attacks to retake the lost ground and all have failed. In one of the counter-attacks, the Germans came forward holding up their hands. Behind them the British guns had placed curtains of shellflre through which it was Impossible for them to retreat, while the Australians' machine guns and rifles, mowing them down, made it hopeless to continue the charge. It was d*sath which ever way they moved —death if they stood still or lay down In the bullet-swept space and they surrendered rather than continue their vain efforts. Fear British Prisoners of Turks May All Be Dead London, Aug.. 7. Apprehension exists as to the fate of the British prisoners taken at the time of the sur render of Kut-el-Amara to the Turks. Lord Robert Cecil said in the House of Commons to-day that repeated in ulries had been made through the American embassy at Constantinople to ascertain the whereabouts of these prisoners, but that no reply had been received from the Porte. This, he said, inspired considerable misgivings as the prisoners were compelled, after the fall of Kut-el-Amara to cross the desert at the worst season of the year, at that time.
