CHICAGO, Til.. July T.—The state council of defense took up the coal ituation today at the request of a mmittee of retail coal dealers. "hairman Samuel Insull met the committee appointed by a mass meeting of about 150 retail coal dealers, whe, they said, represented 90 per cent of the retail coal distribution of the city.
The council has drawn up a list of recommendations and rules with regard to coal and its use and will pre-* sent these recommendations to the public utilities commission and the interstate commerce commission to get them Adopted as a set of r,ules.
Stops All Deliveries.
'Tllfe members of the committee toTd me that the first effect of the press dispatches from Washington foretelling the reduction of the price of coal had been to stop absolutely the delivery of coal to domestic and flat owner consumers in the city." said Mr. fnsul! following the conference. "They said that their teams arc in the barns and •J. that there is no retail coal business,: and that their patrons are waiting for

Indian Girl Sings At Chautauqua Here

by J(attent
PRINCESS WATAHWASO One of the outstanding features of the fourth day of the Tcrre Haute Redpath seven-day Chautauqua, which begins next Tuesday afternoon, will be the appearance of the Indian princess, Watahwaso, in a prostiam of Indian sonify, legends and dances.
Watah waso is a real Indian princess, the daughter of a chieitain of the Penobscots, who lived off Indian island on the coast of Maine. She received her education, both musical and literary, as the result of the kindly interest of a Cambridge professor, -who found that her ancestors had befriended a relative of his taken prisoner by the Penobscots during the French and Indian war.
Watahwaso Is grace personified. She appears on the platform in native Indian garb, which harmonizes delightfully with her dark olive skin and black, sparkling eyes. It is not overstating to style her the Indian prima donna. n the fourth day also* will appear Frauleln Mnrie Mayer, who played tho role of Mary Magdalene in the Oberanimersrau passi«n play of 1910. Fraulein Mayer gives a dramatic lecture
pectcd to mine and store enough to on the lives and customs of the people
prevent a shortage later. The only way to meet the certain demand later on is for the mines to run as strong in July i as they do in December and the way to ,'• assure that is for the public to buy and store coal now for the winter."

DEATH HURLED FROM CLOUDS MRPLANES

exacted such,A heavy toil of life is London. The German raiders came from the north and left by way of the south. The glass In some of the streets of the city resembles that in the streets of New York and its suburbs following the explosion on Black Tom Island In th« upper New York harbor last July. The people in tho capital are urging that quick reprisals be taken.
The following official account of the raid was given out: "Lord French reports that at about 9:30 o'clock this-morning hostile air craft in considerable numbers, 'probably in two parties, appeared over the Isle of Thanet and the fast coast of Essex. After dropping some bombs in Thanet the raiders proceeded in the direction of London. Moving roughly parallel to the north bank of the Thames, they approached I^ondon from the northeast. Then, changing their course, they proceeded north and west and crossed London from the northwest to the southeast. Bombs wers dropped in various places in the metropolitan area.
Raid Biggest Yet.
"The number of raiding airplanes is at present uncertain, but was probably about twenty. They were attacked by artillery and by large numbers of our own airplanes, but reports as to the results of the engagements and as to damage and casualties have not yet been received."
Damage was done in the heart oj! London by the raid, which was one of the greatest, if not the greatest, ever attempted by the Germans over the metropolis.
The west end and fashionable northwestern residential suburbs had a superb view of the approach of the visitors. From the further northern fringes of the metropolis the raiders swept onward In fairly close formation, more than a score in number. The squadron, which had been flying high then, began a sWift toboggan downwards, its speed increasing tremendously under the assistance of gravity and the planes soon reaching a level evidently less than a thousand yards in their swoop toward the oentral objectives.
Dare Curtain of Fir#.
Meanwhile from all directions anti aircraft batteries were working like machine guns. Bursting shrapnel dotted the air around the on-coming raiders with snarling vicious black puffs of smoke more numerous than the planes. It seemed impossible for the raiders completely to escape from the atmosphere of curtain Are surrounding thera,\The raiders, however, pursued their course, holding their cargoes of bombs until they had crossed the suburban district and outlying parks. A majority of the people had sufficient warning to enable them to seek shelter in basements.
The most recent big air raid on London occurred June 13. At that time, the German squadron consisted of about fifteen machines and the downtown section of London was their chief objective. Many bombs fell in the east end, where the buildings were dest royfed and others badly damaged.
The casualties officially announced were 151 killed and 430 persons injured. No damage of a military or naval nature was done. The Germans remained at a great height and flew swiftly. The British air fighters had difficulty in pursuit for the loss of only one German Imachine was

combined capital of the bonding concerns, while large country banks hold many loans upon distillery spirits.
Urghig reconsideration of the Cummins' amendment, Senator Robinson, author of the "administration compromise" substitute, said tne Cummins provision would cause reaction against "the laudable movement for national prohibition."
Wants To Know Why.
Senator John Sharp Williams, referring to the amount of liquors Issued to French and British soldiers and the allowance of beer to the German army, declared that no war had been fought by prehibition. He demanded to know how the prevention of withdrawal of liquor from bond would increase or conserve the food supply.
Senator Norris, of Nebraska, and Senator Vardaman, of Mississippi, both of whom voted yesterday for the Cummins amendment, said it should be modified to exempt liquors held in bond from taxation In justice to the distilling interests. Senator James said if the senate should finally adppt the Cummins plan, he would offe# a tax exemption amendment.
Senator Smoot, of Utah, ji£.id he would offer an amendment should the Cummins plan be finally written into the bill, providing that the government shall buy bonded warehousesC^t reasonable profit to the distillers.
Seriator Reed's amendment to the Cummins' provision proposing that the president should be empowered tu authorize withdrawal Of liquors from bond when in the public interest was rejected 45 to 38. The effect of the action upon Senator Reed's amewtlment was to leave the Cummins' proviso subject to a further vote.
At, the close of a day
of
turbulent
debate and after voting 52 to 34 against the so-called "bone dry" amendment, the senate last night recossed until today In the midst of.^fae prohibition fight.
After roll calls showing a considerable majority against stopping manufacture of beer and wines or giving the p. _uo.it power to suspend their manufacture, the senate voted 68 to 10 to prohfbit the importation of distilled beverages and then, by a vote* of 45 to 40, tentatively adopted a provision prohibiting withdrawal of distilled spirits now held In bond for beverage purposes.
Confiscates Beverage.
Both provisions, though voted' on separately, are contained in an amendment by Senator Cummins, added to the so-called "administration compromise" substitute of Senator Robinson, of Arkangas, prohibiting only manufacture of distilled beverages. The substitute was offered for the clause as drafted by the agriculture committee which would place the question of beer and wine manufacture in the hands of the president. Many senators who had planned to vote for-the Robinson substitute, promptly expressed their disapproval of the Cummins amendment which they declared proposed virtual confiscation of 220,000,000 gallons of distilled beverages in bond without conserving any grain. They pointed out that the government would lose next year between $250,000,000 and $300,000,000 in taxes, and asserted that banks with loans upon distilled spirits might be put out of business.
The prohibition forces, however, were openly elated over the possibility of stopping consumption as well as manufacture of .whisky and other "hard" beverages,

permitted to remain here. The Bulgarian minister still is at his legation. There are many indications that the government is taking steps to tighten the spy net and make even more difficult the getting of military information to Germany.^.
When the government agreed to allow the transfer of many former German employes to the Swiss legation and ^consulates there was no state of war between the United States and Germany. But the declaration of war and the knowledge that German maintains an efficient spy system hero have changed the government's attitude.
The Grlmm-Hoffirtann affair In Switzerland, in which a member of the Swiss federal council was forced to resign after being discovered as a tierman intermediary seeking the influence of Russia toward peace, had a deep effect here in convincing officials that at| least some members of neutral governments were using their positions to bring pressure on the belligerent powers. It is not desired to increase the possibility of such work through the added pressure brought by former German officials still in office here. Moreover, America's relations with some of the neutrals have become delicate through the export war provisions, and Germany could easily use her position to increase friction here.
The pruning out of former German officials here is but the first step In a systematic movement to root out the spy system in this country. St^te department officials say that an iron bound censorship will be established on all outgoing cables* in line with President Wilson's proclamation at the earliest hour.
Several American clerks were permitted to remain in the Spanish embassy in Berlin after the severance of relations In order to organize the American representation here. It was understood their stay wjls to be somewhat temporary and it is presumed that Germany will tell them their presence no* longer is desirable.
State department officials pointed out today that the dismissal of the German representatives and the interment of Carl Hevnen, F. A. Borgemeister, and Prof. Jonathan A. W. Zenneck, in New York, were not the immediate outcome of the recent spy agitation.
ARRESTS ARE ORDERED.
Qov«mment Acts Against Atl Sirtpected of Hostile Activities. NEW YORK, July 7.—Orders have been received hero from Washington for the immediate arrest of all German agents, financial and otherwise suspected of activities a.gainst this country's interests, it was made known today by the federal authorities.
A number of alien enemies are under surveillance here, it was learned, as are several Austro-Hungnrians who are known to have been in th» vicinity of water fronts recently.
The writing In letters which government agents seized yesterday is being subjected to heat and acid tests to learn if they contain secret writing. Some of them were addressed to Alexander Von Nuber, former Austrian consul here. They appear to relate to commercial affairs.

GRAND
Grenades Rout Germans,
The attack opened with almost Intense artillery bombardment, under which, however, the Basques sat tight in their trenches, improvised out of shell holes joined together. When the awful hurricane of shells ceased, the occupants cf the trenches saw advancing toward them wave after wave of German infantry. They crossed the ground elbow to elbow, their numbers far in excess of those of the French defenders. Not a sign, however, was given by the Basques Of yielding the ground until the German ranks opened ind brought to view men equipped with Implements throwing, liquid flames. Then only did the Basques fall back at those portions of their lines which wei*e sprinkled with biasing spirits. This retirement was but a temporary one. The French soon organized a counter attack with grenades and bayonets. The hand grenades were thrown by them with such precision owing to their life long practice at their favorite game that they forced the Germans out again rapidly and in the fury of their fight advanced beyond their original line.
On the rlgnt
of
this Basque line the
famous Chasseurs had an equally severe fight with the attacking Germans, who were eventually thrown bacic after suffering great losses.
Not an inch of the ground gained by the French in the,first movement of the offensive has been lost. The German artillery is compelled to fire almost at random, .hence the French possess all the most valuable observatories, whence they can watch the movemgnts of their enemies in the yalley of the Ailette down below and on the crest at the other side which before the French offensive was the third German position.
Information gathered from the prisoners shows that the German high command cannot reconcile itself to the loss of Craonne and the Chemin-Des-Dames and the oTlcers of the fighting units have been'ordered repeatedly to retake them at any cost.
