The charges filed against Oscar Jensen and Martin Sandburg, proprietors of the Central smoke house, 829 Wabash avenue, were dismissed on motion of the state in City Court Thursday morning when the complaining witness, John E. Jones, who swore out an affidavit charging them with running a gaming house, failed to appear to prosecute the case. At the address which Jones gave as his residence, it was stated, according to the police, that he did not live there.

That he will start a systematic investigation of all other cigar stores where there is card playing, was the statement of Mayor Gossom Thursday morning. "If I find that there is gambling of any kind in any of these places, I shall order ail card playing of any kind to be stopped in the cigar stores. I understand that the man who filed complaint against Jensen & Sandburg failed to appear to prosecute them, and that the charges were groundless, but I intend to investigate all of them."

Unsigned letters and telephone calls where the people refuse to reveal their identity regarding Sunday saloon violations and gambling in the future will be disregarded, the mayor .said. He adrriitted that he had received a number of "tips" in this manner which had led to arrests, but said the good people have been telling him Just such news, and it has always been confidential with him.

The Food for Human Beings

Dr. Wiley is America's greatest authority on foods and food values. In a recent magazine article he said: "1 think you can live on wheat alone in the form of whole wheat products, but not on white flour alone. Milk is the wheat of the infant, and wheat is the milk of the adult. Indian corn, because of the amount of zein it contains, is not so well suited for growing animals as wheat/9 All the muscle-making material in the whole wheat grain is made digestible and deliciously palatable in

BRITISH CRUISER HIT BY TORPEDO ESCAPES

BERLIN, June 24.—Official announcement was made here today that a German submarine had attacked on Sunday, June 20, a British armored cruiser, apparently of the Minotaur class, at a point about one hundred miles from the Firth of Fourth, Scotland. The cruiser was hit by a torpedo, but the effect of the attack could not be ascertained by the crew of the submarine.

A dispatch from London last night conveyed announcement that the British cruiser Rozburgh had been struck by a torpedo in the North sea Sunday. The damage sustained was not serious or were there any casualties. The cruiser proceeded under her own steam.

It is evident that the London dispatch of last night and the above message from Berlin refer to the same incident. The Minotaur and the Roxburgh type of cruisers are very similar.

DERMIC SHIP HELD

Some Speculation Caused As to What Has Happened to German Colonial Secretary.

BULLETIN.

LONDON, June 24.—The Norwegian steamer Bergensfjord, together with Gen. Bernhard Dernburg, has been released by the British authorities and will sail for Kirkwall, Scotland, tonight.

NEW YORK, June 24.—In absence of dispatches from London concerning the disposition of the NorwegianAmerican liner Bergensfjord, detained by the British authorities at Kirkwall, there was much speculation here today as to what had happened to Dr. Bernhard Dernburg, former colonial secretary of the German empire, who sailed from this city aboard the steamer June 12 under guarantee of jafe conduct, given by representatives in America of the alllfed powers.

All that was definitely known here was that the Bergensfjord's voyage to Bergen, Norway, had been interrupted and that she had been taken Into Kirkwall and detained there. This intelligence reached New York after a two days' delay by the British censors, the dispatch being filed last Monday and delayed in transmission until yesterday. The dispatch also stated that the Swedish steamer Varing, from Savannah, for Swedish ports, likewise was detained by the British authorities.

Mission Accomplished.

An interview with Dr. Dernburg, published here today, was obtained hpre, it is stated, on June 11 under the stipulation that it should not be printed until Dr. Dernburg's arrival in Bergen, Norway.

Dernburg said his mission in the United States, though curtailed, had been successful. "I feel that the great American public has been given a clearer and better understanding of the German cause and the German aims of this war," he added. "Germany at the beginning of the war was so isolated that the underlying motives for, and the German viewpoint of the war, might never have penetrated through the circle of isolation with which our enemies have tried to surround up. If I have succeeded in presenting to the great, Intelligent body of Americans the basic facts of this war as Germany sees them, and upon which her gigantic struggle is based, the main object of my mission will have been accomplished."

except the territory to the north of Souchez where the cannonading never ceases. The enemy bombarded Arras, the hospital of the Holy Sacrament being particularly damaged. Some of the sisters and some of the nurses lost their lives. "In front of Dompierre to the west of Peronne the explosion of a German mine was followed by a violent bombardment of our trenches. •On the heights of the Meuse at the Calonne trench there has been no change in the situation. "In Dorraine from the Leintrey, the enemy delivered a counter attack. After a rather spirited engagement they were repulsed. "On the rest of the front last night paased quietly."

RUSSIA NOT ALARMED.

Likens Retreat to That of Joffre Early In War. PBTROGRAD, June 24.—The Russian retirement through Galicia entailing the evacuation of Lemberg is likened by Russian critics to Gen. Joffre'a retreat to the Marne in the early part of the war. They explain that such a successful retirement, keeping the army intact, is in no wise equivalent to defeat. As Gen. Joffre was not afraid to permit the Germans to approach near Paris, so the Russians claim not to be alarmed by the approach of the Austro-German forces to Russian territory.

Gains In Dardanelles.

PARIS, June 24.—An official note made public In Paris today gives details of land operations on the north side of the Dardanelles between June 1 and June 8 and recites that as a result of attacks by the French and British a gain of from 150 to 400 yards along a

front of over a mile was made.

years of the struggle for liberty rescued the citizen from the tyranny of the crown. "In the present instance, for example, it would be wise and honorable to elucidate the long and saintly labors of Joe Roach for civic righteousness, but infamous to recall his picturesque career at Terre Haute, through which he has risen to his present eminence as a reformer of other men's morals. "Outside the court procedure, however, it is well known that these Indictments have Deen long and ardently craved by certain influences to which Taggart and Bell have refused to bow the knee, that this stigma upon their names was coveted for the publicity that might be made of it and has now, ir. fact, been made and that the investigation before the grand jury, under Mr. Rucker, has be^n in the hands of a man who was, until recently, on the legal staff of the Indianapolis News. "The possibilities of this sort of thing, permitted to go on unrestrained, are such aa to appall the citizen who has been taught to venerate the freedom of the press, but who may be pardoned if he sometimes wonders whether it is the press so much as the citizen who needs protection from persecution."

rule of reason be construed to help the defense. The attorney referred to the deposition of Robert D. Ramsey, special investigator for the department of justice, and said it was introduced merely for the purpose of showing fraud and not to show legal votes and illegal votes.

It has been the contention of the defense that the four precincts In question could not be thrown out if there was any way to distinguish between the legal and illegal votes and that the deposition of Ramsey could be used for this purpose. The defense claimed that according to Ramsey's deposition there were not enough Illegal votes cast in the four precincts to make Krietensteln sheriff over Shea.'

White said, in support of his argument, that the precincts could and ought to be thrown out, that It was impossible to tell the illegal votes because many repeaters had used the names of legal voters, copied from the women poll book holders, and had accomplished their end.

We referred to the testimony of County Clerk Joyce. Joyce testified when on the stand for the defense that he saw no brawls or fights and saw no crooked work when he visited the various precincts. White referred to the separation of the democrat and progressive workers at Taylorvllle for the purpose of reorganizing the board, to the division of the "sheep and the goats."
