New York. Keb. 24.—The destruction
of Dutch ships by German submarines
as reported l'rom London involves tho
loss ot' vessels and cargoes valued at
*11.600,000, according to estimated
made here to-day by agents ot the lines
owning the ships sunk.
Eight million dollars was tl'.e esti
mated value of the Dutch vessels. The
Menado, owned by the Rotterdam
Lloyds, and Ihe Bandoeng, owned by
the Royal Dutch Llyds, each carried
I a million dollar canio of tobacco and

NAME INSPECTORS
TO WATCH ASHMEN
To See That Each Gang Cleans
Up Thoroughly as It
Goes Along
City Commissioner E. Z. Gross at
noon to-day announced the appoint
ment of five Inspectors to superintend
the collection of ashes in the city.
This action followed a conference
between Mr. Gross, Samuel Gardner,
president of the Pennsylvania Reduc
tion Company which has the city con
tract. and members of the City Health
Biireau. Close co-operation between
the contratcors and the city was
promised with the view of cleaning up
the huge accumlation of ashes.
To Accompany Gang
No salary was fixed for inspectors
Inspectors Smith, Seborn, Hatton,
Lentz and Johnson nor was the time
fixed for their length of service. They
will accompany the five gangs of col
lectors who will start out over the
regular routes Monday morning.
Whether or not the city or the con
tractors will pay these superintendents
was left unsettled at the end of the
conference. Mr. Gross takes the posi
tion, he said, that the company should
pay the men because their employ
ment was made necessary by lackness
and failure to maintain schedules.
"The inspectors havr been given in
structions to see that each gang cleans
up everything in the districts in which
their gangs are working," said Com
missioner Gross.
"The are to see that former prac
tices whereby the collectors skipped
i places here und there. The contrac
tors have agreed to give their em
| ployes orders to obey implicitly the
orders of the superintendents."

accomplish the aim of this war —the
defense of our independence and the
freedom of our homes."
"Chancellor Von Bethmann-Hollweg,"

DEMOCRATS PUN
FIGHT TO FINISH
ON REVENUE BILL
Will Hold Congress in Con
tinuous Session From Now
Until March 4
C. (). P. FILIBUSTER!
Senators Drop All Disguises'
and Conie Out Flatfootedly
Against Measure
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C. t Feb. 24.- —Senate
Democrats to-day determined on a
tight to a finish with the Republican
minority over the revenue bill and
preparedness legislation olid Have
practically decided to hold Congress in
continuous session trom now on even
to the extent of holding through Sun
day, March 4.
The conference was held after Re
publican Senators had dropped all dis
guises in the filibuster and had partici
pated in an obstructive debate for two
hours on the legislative appropriation
bill conference report. In the Demo
cratic conference held in the finance
committee room were Secretary Mc-
Adoo and Senators Simmons, Stone,
Murtln. James. Thomas. Stvanson and
Hughes.
"We are going to insist on keeping
this revenue bill before the Senate, no
matter what happens," said Senatqr
Simmons. "The whole preparedness
program and the destiny of the nation
is dependent upon this bill and if the
Republicans want to tak# responsibil
ity for imperilling the country, they
will have to take the blame.
AD DEMOCRATS—6
"There will be co compromise on
this measure and if thf minority pro
poses to keep up this filibuster we
shall have to fight them with a con
tinuous session of the Senate."
"If the Republicans want to take
responsibility for delaying preparation
of the nation in this grave crisis," said
Senator James, "they may take it, hut
the country will know where the re
sponsibility lies, if Republican Sena
tors want to tight for the interests
of munitions makers so that they njay
reap profits of warfare and escape
payment of any of its tax burdens,
the country also shall be informed of
that."
The conference took considerable
time discussing revenue possibilities In
case the Republican fight succeeded
and the President declined to call an
extra session. It was admitted that
with treasury notes and available Pan
ama bonds, the government could get
through under normal conditions but
it would be impossible to proceed with
a preparedness program. t
Senator Smoot. one of the Repub
lican leaders, after conferring with,
Representative Mann, Republican
House leader, said he had no Idea that
there would be an extra session of
Congress, basing his statement on the
belief that the Republican tight would
operate to prevent the President from
going to Congress to ask for more
power to handle the foreign situation
In the absence of Congress.
■ "I do not believe the President will
come to Congress at all," Senator
Smoot said.

CONSTERNATION
By Associated Press .
The llugue, Feb. 24. via London. I
Consternation was caused here by the
announcement of the torpedoing nnd
sinking: by German submarines and
seven Dutch cargo vessels, two of
which, the Noorderdljk and the Za
andijk, grain laden and bound for a
home port, belonged to the Holland- j

Dutch Vessels Were
in Ballast For New York
to Get Cargoes of Grain j
By Associated Press
New York. Feb. 21.—The steamship
Zaandijk was owned by the Holland-
American Line. According to William
Van Dooran, the the line's agent her,
the vessel was enroute from Hotter
dam to New York in ballast. She had
put in at Falmouth for examination.
The Noorderdljk. also a Holland-
American liner, carrying a cargo of
grain from New Yoik to Rotterdam,
had put in at Falmouth and was sunk
between Falmouth and Rotterdam. The
Kemland was owned by lhe Royal Dutch
Lloyds. She was coming from Rotter-*
darn In ballast for New York and had
called at Falmouth. Like the Zaandijk,
the Kemland was coming here to take
on grain consigned to the Dutch gov
ernment.
The Jucatra. owned by the Rotterdam
Lloyds, left New York Janury 26, with
grain for the Dutch government. She
had put in at Kirkwall.
The Menado, also owned by the Rot
terdam Lloyds, was believed to be on
her way 'to the United States from
Rotterdam to get grain.
Apparently most of these vessels were
in Kirkwall or Falmouth during the
early days of the period of Germany's
unrestricted submarine warfare.
For more than a year all ships flying
the flag of Holland have been filling
from 60 to 80 per cent, of their space
with grain. This space was comman
deered and the grain was all consigned
to the Netherlands government.
None of the ships reported sunk car

Eat less meat also take glass of
Salts before eating
breakfast.
Uric acid in meat excites the kid
neys, they become overworked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps
of lead. The urine becomes cloudy;
the bladder is irritated, and you may
be obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night. When the
kidneys clog you must help them
flush oft the body's urinous waste or
you'll be a real sick person shortly.
At first you feel a dull misery in the
kidney region, you suffer from back
ache, sick headache, dizziness, stomach
Kets sour, tongue coated and you feel
rheumatic twinges when the weather
13 bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; tako a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This fam
ous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon Juice, combined
I with llthia, and has been used for
I generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activ
ity, also to neutralize the acids in
urine, so it no longer is a source of
irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness. /
Jad Salts IK Inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
llthla-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
the kidneys clean and active. Drug
gists here say they sell lots of Jad
Salts to folks who believe in over
coming kidney trouble while it is only
trouble.
