UBMARINE ACTIVITY PLEASES GERMANY LONDON, Oct. 10. The resumption of submarine activity this time off the American coast h-.s caused the greatest satisfaction in Germany says an Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Amsterdam- It says: "It is believed that the wholesale destruction of shipping by submarines will end the war before the year is out. It is considered that the German chancellor made the concession to allow submarines to renew their activity on condition that they be confined to American waters. The reason for this is that the United States is unwilling to declare itself owing to the presidential election. Submarine enterprises are not allowed in the waters of European neutrals."

Connolly formerly lived at 3414 Lucts street, St Louis. ARMOURS WILL CUT 400 PER CENT MELON CHICAGO, Oct. 10. Armour and company will cut a 400 per cent melon at the next meeting of the board of directors. E. J. Dunham, vice president, in a statement made public today, said an increase of the capitalization from $20,000,000 to $100,000,000 also would be considered. This would be accomplished by capitalizing $S0,000,000 of the company's surplus, which now is around $100,000,000, and which was earned between 1901 and 1912, when few dividends were paid and virtually all the earnings were reinvested in plant extensions.

GERMANS PUSHING PEACE MOVEMENT PARIS, Oct 10. French newspapers generally take the view that the German submarine raid in American waters was more for its effect on the United States than anything else. "Germany has re-opened the question of obtaining something from America in return for concessions in the submarine warfare," - says the Journal. "Germany probably wants to force the peace movement in America." FEAR OF DEFEAT DRIVES GERMANS IN BITTER FIGHT NEW YORK, Oct. 10 "The outlook for peace in Germany never was darker than now. The German people will fight to the bitter end, but they are moved by fear of the defeat rather than by hope of victory." Herbert Swope, city editor of the New York World, returning today after a two month's stay in Germany, so summed up his impressions gained in that country. Swope related by way of confirming reports that there is ground for anxiety felt in Germany for the subsea liner Bremen. On Sept. 16 he said, Alfred Lohman, president of the company which built the Deutschiand and Bremen, called him over the long distance telephone at Berlin and asked him to notify him immediately upon receipt of news from America that the Breman had arrived there. Swope said Lohman told him that such news was expected within five days at the most. Swope added that there Is no shortage of food in Germany owing to the stringent nation-wide- regulations. PROGRESSIVES INTEND TO RUN FULL SLATE Progressive party officials notified County Clerk Kelly today that although the nomination certificates of the party have not yet been certified probably a full ticket will be left in the field. For reasons which are not being made public, the nominations have not yet been certified, the clerk was informed.
