THE FULTON COUNTY. NEWS, McCONNELLSBURG, PA. DR. ZIMI1AI GANNOT EXPLAIN His Justification of Mexican Plot Does Not Satisfy. U. S. HAS GERMAN CODE Kaiser's Secretary For Foreign Affair la Having An Uncomfortable Time, Both In Public ' and In Private. Copenhagen. The German-Mexico alliance incident, It la evident from reports brought by persons recently arrived from Germany and from press reports of the Reichstag sessions, con tinues to provide unpleasant moments for Dr. Alfred Zlmmermann, secretary for foreign affairs. His defense of his Bction behind the closed doors of the Reichstag; committee and in the open house has not availed to check either public or private criticism of the act Itself and, still more, the greater crime of being found out Dr. Zlnimermann's latest explana tion in the Reichstag is dismissed by the Tageblatt as avoiding the real crux of the matter, namely, the wis dom of the step as a matter of policy. Formal justification for the proposal Is Unquestioned, but, as the Tageblatt points out, the vital point Is the effect that the overtures might be expected to have on Mexico, on Japan, and on public opinion In the United States, particularly In the Western and South ern States. Regarding Dr. Zimmermann's state ment that the manner In which the American government obtained cog nizance of the Instructions is Btlll un der investigation. The channel whereby the Instruc tions were conveyed to Count von Bernstarff, the former German ambas sador at Washington, Is described mysteriously as a "special and par ticularly secure" one, but It Is con sidered not impossible that the For eign Office took advantage of the State Department, which allowed the American embassy at Berlin now and then to transmit communications be tween the German government and Count von Bernstorff. Embodied with in such despatches were other mes sages, in a second "Inside" code. One such message was transmitted by Am bassador Gerard sjout the date of the Mexican discussion. The text of the instructions as made public from Washington has never been published in Germany. An os tensible text has been made public in Germany, but that was subjected to a few, though, important, revisions, in cluding cmmlsslon of the offer to Mexico respecting' Texas. Even at that, the Socialist critics have ridi culed the idea that the Mexicans would consider the possibility of conquering Arizona and New Mexico and have characterized the idea of a war be tween the United States and Japan as a dogma like the earlier one of "the Inevitable Russo-Engllsh collision." 60 AMERICANS CAPTIVES.

Ac cording to survivors from the sunken vessels the raider is the Seedaled (Sea Eagle), a formidably armed craft, operating with the same success am daring as Its predecessor, the Moewe THE if) BILL PUT AT BILLIONS Army and Navy Experts Figure on Vigorous Campaign. WILL BE NO PASSIVE WAR Rly Upon Country To Back Up Plans Idea Of Coast Gained From Experience Of Belligerents. - Washington. Estimates which have been made for military, naval and economic operations against Germany) in the event of war, are based upon plans for warfare of a most thorough Character. These estimates are not descrlb ahle In terms of millions, or of hun dieds of millions. They run into bil lions, and will tax the resources of the United States, if they are legislated for as army and navy experts will recommend. No Passive War. Official comment upon these esti mates will be withheld until war comes, and until the President him self has outlined his policy and pro posed his program. After that Con gress will have to deal with the ques tion of money-revenue -on the one hand and expenditures on the other. Any feeling that may exist in Wash ington or outside that anything but a passive war may be carried on with out grave cost to the country will, It la Bald, be removed soon after the Army and Navy Departments have spread before Congress the campaign plans, and have confided to the coun try the expense which will be Involved In their execution. There need be no surprise if $5, 000,000,000 is asked for to finance the first year's work. This Is half of the total cost of the Civil War and ap proximately 15 times the cost of the war with Spain. The cost of the Revolutionary War $135,193,000 is a mere bagatelle in comparison and that of the war with Mexico, estimated at $100,000,000, is but a drop in the bucket The enormous totals which have been arrived at in the army and navy calculations have long been before the President He has gone over them, up and down, forward and back ward, in his consideration of all phases of such a conflict as is now ahead. These figures undoubtedly have caused him concern, but it is not to be supposed for a minute that he has hesitated in fixing his policy be cause of the money which must be spent Nor is it assumed here that the country generally, though unprepared for the estimates, will balk when the time comes to pay the bill. It has been vaguely felt in all quarters that the price would be heavy. The experi ence of other countries now belliger ent has shown that modern warfare comes high. Some of the European governments even now face bank ruptcy, but not one of them has stop ped to count the money cost. Current taxes will be increased to some extent The cost of food and clothing will increase to a marked de gree. All this goes without saying. But is is unlikely that in any case the Government will exact anything like as much money from the Ameri can people as Great Britain, for in stance, is demanding from her people. There is no thought here of a 60 per cent, income tax upon individuals or 60 per cent levy upon corporations. This Government will be able to. finance a war with Germany without such drastic measures. There are billions of dollars of available funds in American banks. $10,000,000 RELIEF FUND.

ISSUE HAS NOW BEEN MADE Von Bethmann-Hollweg's Speech Brings No Change In the Situa tion President Sound ing Sentiment Washington. Only the cessation of Germany's ruthless campaign of death and destruction against American shipping can alter the course which President Wilson and his advisers have laid down for the United States. This was the determination of the ad ministration following the receipt in Washington of Chancellor von Beth-mann-Holiweg'B discussion of the German-American crisis before the German Reichstag. The German Chancellor, while he declared that Germany has never desired and does not now desire war with the United States, made no announcement as to any change in Germany's campaign of devastation at sea. His statement that if the United States considers the submarine campaign a cauae for declaration of war, Germany will not "have to bear the burden of responsi bility for it" and that the German nation "shall also bear and overcome this," was accepted in Washington as voicing Germany's determination to maintain the war against American shipping in the face of the obvious preparations of the United States (or impending war Germany, it was said, was consist ently attempted to lay the blame for her . acts on other natlonB.

TO NO GOMPROMIS FACETO FACE WITH HINDENBURG LINE British Now Getting Their Big Guns to Work. FRENCH GROUND CLEARER British Recognize That Great De fenses Must Be Smashed Before Another Move Forward Can Be Made. British Armies in France (via Lon don). The warfare on the western front is becoming somewhat station ary again, as the British outposts and patrols have come face to faoe with the so-called Hindenburg line, where the Germans undoubtedly will make a determined stand. The position is strong, as they have had unlimited time In which to prepare it far from shell Are, so that the problem again arises of smashing down this defense with sufficient artillery to permit an other move forward. Minor actions continue all along the line between the German rear guard machine-gun detachments and the British infantry and cavalry pa trols, but nothing approaching the proportions of a battle has yet de veloped. The Germans have placed great reliance on their machine guns, as many as a score having been found grouped In one position during the retreat They also have fortified every possible position in the line of retreat, including barbed wire en tanglements about cow barns and pig pens. The German heavy artillery is com ing Into play again from fixed posi tions back of the Cambral-St Quentln line.

"Two steamers dispatched to the rescue arrived on the scene within half an hour. During this trying time, although faced by the probability of Imminent death, the troops main tained steadfast courage and dis cipline.

' EXPECT TO LEVY STATE WAR TAX Opinion Expressed by Chair man Woodward That Legisla ture Will Meet Contingency PROVIDE FUNDS AT ONCE Large Appropriations Will Be Neces sary, as Soon as Active War Condi tions Exist to Put Pennsylvania In the Forefront of the States. Harrlsburg. Chairman Woodward, of the House Appropriations Committee, Indicated that It will be necessary for the State of Pennsylvania to levy a "war tax" in the event of active hostilities with Germany.

Mr. Woodward said that in his opin ion a large appropriation would be necessary as soon as active war con ditions exist, to make possible Penn sylvania's stand in the, forefront of all the States in the Union. He de clared that such an appropriation would make necessary the raising of additional revenues which would be levied by the Legislature to the full est amount necessary. Such appro priation and revenue-raising measures, Mr. Woodward said, will take preced ence over all else in the considera tion of the Appropriation Committee of the House of Representatives and -will be acted on with the utmost speed.

"I think it safe to say that the funds for such pur poses will be provided regardless of what happens to other projects in case war Is declared." Jag Mishap a Liability. The State Compensation Board, in an opinion In the claim of Miller vs. Maloney, Pittsburgh, affirms the find ing of Referee Christley, In awarding compensation to the mother of a man who, while intoxicated, fell from the seat of a wagon which he was driving and was fatally hurt. , The employer argued that the ac cident occurred at a point which was not In the most direct route that the deceased could have adopted to drive the team to the place of business, and that he was so intoxicated, at the time of the accident that' he must necessarily have been outside of the scope of his employment It Is held that the road taken was not out of the direct route and was one naturally taken, and the opinion says: "The evidence showed that the defendant was thoroughly cognizant of the Intemperate habits of his em ploye. . . . The defendant was on notice that he was entrusting his team, as well as his property, in the hands of an employe of well-known intemperate habits, and it now comes with bad grace for him to urge that he ought to escape the liability of law because of the condition of the deceased." The board also affirmed findings of Referee Smith in the case of Brown vs. Johnston, Bradford, In which com pensation was granted for injuries fol lowing a fall while carrying a box of tools. A new bearing was held at Bradford in this case. Seek 4000 Men.
