GRAPPLING FOR | |: LOST SUBMASIiNEj Diving Boat C?.i;r;Jit Fast in' O-xp Waters LITTLE HOPE FOR CREW Signs on Surface That Little , Vessel Has Broken Apart. Honolulu,?The government tug Navajo which way assisted by another tug in drugging the bottom with grap plir.g hooks, reported its line? fast at a ! uepth of 39 fat-horns to what was believed to be submarine F-4, which had not been heard from since early yesterday when site was submerged during target practice. Other vessels of the submarine fleet j stationed he re in nn oi vteh lel\ the j harbor to dive and investigate. Fend- : ing their return the .. to of the 2C> men who f; med the . -mplemcnt ot F-4, still was a mr.tu-r : f conjecture. i The F-4 was submc.v. ml at 9:1a a. m. yesterday. The liuv. other submarines are of the F tvpe loted she did I not reappear promptly but no apprehension was felt for her safety until several hours had passed. Although naval officers declared the vessel could remain -submerged tor 24 hours without menace to her crew ii ! her air apparatus was undamaged, ii was feared today the acid tanks have been broken and the crew suffocated. The fate of the 2f5 men in the subline became a matter of still graver HUOrehension after the Nnvnin rc-nnvt ed. The shore oil' which the F-4 disappeared is steep and shelves to a pro ciptious drop. It' the submarine lies in 35 fathoms of water it is beyond the reach of divers. Divers yesterday descended to a depth of 19(5 feet which is a local record and were drawn up unconscious. James M. Hoggert, electrician of Macedonia., Mo., who was on shore leave is the only member of the F-4Y crew known to have escaped. Lieuten ant Alfre d L. Ede was in command.

Greenville, March :M.?The leading live stock aiul agricultural agents of the South met in Citv.i.v ie last week to discuss live stock raising in the South and .0 eornud-.-r p .ins for introducing this industry n thin section of the country. i>radf '?! Knapp, special agent of the federal department of agriculture for dm Southern division, presided over the meetings and W. F. | Call an lor. private secretary to the sec rotary of agriculture, 1>. F. Houston, acted as secretary of the gathering. The following State dcmonslrn'ion j agents were present: (\ It. Hudson, \*/\ . f ]\ t ' ?. noliiu: ' II n ihH n TnnnAO iivi ut \-UI V/UlUi ) II. A / . LVIIilLO W. W. Long, South Carolina; R. S. Wilson, Mississippi; J. T. Watt, Uabama; .J. P. Campbell, Georgia. In acUli.ion to those agricultural and live stock experts many high oflicials ol' the department were present, among them being 1?. IT. Itawl, chief of tn^ dairy division, H. M. Lemon, chief of the poultry division and others. The object of the meeting was to foster Intelligent cooperation between the State agents and the county agents. The meeting was a "family affair." Inasmuch as the public was extended no special invitation, it was a gathering of experts for the purpose of considering problems in general. The sense of the meeting was that the unproductive land of the South could be profitably used for the raising of live stock. A committee was named to put into definite form the various points upon which the conference agreed. The findings of this committee will bo supplied to all county agents. Mr. Knnpp and others expressed the hope that the work of the various agents would be more concrete. They desire to afTect actual plans for making live stock raising attractive in the South. J The discussions were practical rather than theoretical, and the men present were seeking practical plans rather than the teaching of theories. The conference adjourned to meet at Clemson college.

LANSHORNE RECALL BRINGS MYSTERY i Why Was Major Goorga T Lang liorne Miliary A-.tao!io at Berlin \ RECALLED FROM HIS POST Falso Dispatches or News in Fa vov of Germany Signed by i\anghorne Have Their Fart to Play in the Matter. u.'contly Major George T. Langhornc, military Attache at Berlin Ger many was recalled from his post by J this country. Ever since the incident. the department has find to keep the j matter shrouded in mystery. A Washington dispatch to the New. York Sun says: Development here to day served to do 'pen rather than lesson the mystery with which the admi list ration is attempting to surround the recall of Major George T. Langhome from Iris post as millitary attache at Berlin. * There wore indications that the j facts are being concealed loss for reaI sons of state than to avoid embarrassment. It was admitted in official quarters ' that for the present Major Langhorne ' would undoubtedly be engaged in pre' paring the reports of his observations | of the German war operations. He will ; do this work in connection with the ! War College and the general staff. It became definitely known, however that important as Major Longhorne's data are regarded, his reports on the results of the unusual opportunities afforded him by the Germans for stildirK in thn war vono rln not cover the case by any means. It can be said that his departure was preceded by incidents which the War and State departments have reasons of their own for trying to keep a close secret. What is being concealed by the administration in Washington, however is no secret in several other quarters. There is good foundation for the state ment that all the peculiar circumstances in the Langhorne case are known not only in government circles in Berlin, London and Paris, but also in the diplomatic corps in Washington. It may be said further that some foreign officials are inclined to take mere satisfaction out of the affair than do officials of this government. Such evidence as is obtainable here in the case points strongly to the conclusion that the recall is based chictly on certain strongly pro-German communications Sent in Major Langhorne I name. Whether these communications, said to have been sent by wireless, were actually written by Major Langhorne himself is a point that has not been j cleared up here. It is said, however, I that Langhorne was the innocent victim of the incident and that, though his recall became necessary, no blame or discredit attached to him. Those cognizant of all the facts in ; the case are careful to explain that ab ! solutely no reflection upon the ability cr integrity of Major Langhorne is in! volved in the case. In the general discussion here today i i of the incident there were intimations that the personal relations of Major Langhorne with his associates in Berlin, including Ambassador Gerard, were a large factor in the situation. Officials of the State Department how ever, declined to make any statement whatever concerning either the ambassador or the former millitary attache and referred all inquiries to the War Department. At the latter department the air of mystery and solemnity adopted by all those having full knowledge of the Langhorne case was even more notice able than yesterday, when the major was brought to the department by Major-Gen. Leonard Wood. Major Langhorne was at the depart ment for some time today, closeted . with the chief of staff. Officers known to be wholly familiar 1 with the case professed a profound ig | norance in response even to the most casual inquiry. Secretary Garrison de, clined to add anything to his previous ; statements that Major Langhorne had . been called back because he wanted him in this country. In one quarter the statement was j made that the case was "too delicate i to talk about." No explanation of - mis statement was voucnaieti. Here^ toforc it has been the apparent desire ? of the War Department to have it be lieved that Major Langhorne's recall ? be regarded as a routine matter. ' It was established definitely that s the British government did not make i any formal representations in the J Langhorne case. One explanation of j the case that came to the Sun was * that certain pro-German communica% tions bearing Langhorne's name had | been of such a nature that when they fell under the eyes of the British government the matter was promptly brought to the attention of Washington. It is apparent, though, that such ^ action might have been taken without. any formal representations or in a ' way that might not even be regarded as oiUcial. There is little doubt that the British govcrnnvcnt is fully informed about the.vase, having acquired its information, it is presumed, through the I picking up of non-eoded dispatches. At any rate the London government knows much more about the alfair than officials of the United States government are willing to disclose.

Woman Hotel in Waynesboro, Ga., Tells Strange Story. Augusta. Ga.,? A woman who gave her name as Jane Redd, saying she is from liuntsville, Ala., is in jail in Waynesboro, where she has confessed to Sheriff Johnson she kidnapped Robert Allen Striker, the child of Mrs W. H. Striker of Brooklyn, N. V., who has been missing since November. In a divorce case between Mrs. Richtcr and her former husband, J. A. Striker the custody of the child was awarded to the mother. The woman held in jail has agreed to take the sheriff to a house in the country where she says she has the child hidden. The 'woman, who later said her name \\ as Jane Redd, at first said the child was a son of heu daughter in Columbus, Ga., then said he was her son's son. After three hours' of grilling it is said she admitted the child was kidnapped from St. Petersburg, Fla., in November. People through the Waynesboro section remember! that the woman had the child going! through the country begging.

March 24.?Mrs. Mrs. Mary Anna Jackson, widow of Thomas Jonathan ("Stonewall") Jack son, the famous Confederate general, died at her home here early today. She had been ill for many months. An attack of pneumonia three days ago hastened her death. Her granddaughter, Mrs. Randolph Preston, and other relatives were at Mrs. Jackson's bedside. Public buildings, schools and business houses will be closed tomorrow, the day of the funeral. The body will be buried at Lexington, Va., beside that of "Stonewall" Jackson. WHISKEY IN TRUNK. Shipment from Norfolk Checked to j Darlington. One day last week a large trunk surrounded in mystery arrived in Dar lington over the Seaboard railway. This trunk was checked in the usual way from Norfolk, Va., to Darlington and waS thought to contain wearing apparel or other articles belonging to the traveler holding the corresponding check and no suspicion was then there to attached. However, as the trunk was being removed from the baggage car a crash was heard and soon the odor of whiskey was readily detected. The proper authorities opened the trunk and found only 11 gallons of whiskey concealed therein. This is one of the new methods adopted for the transportation of liquor into the State. Urge Truce in War. New York, ?The program for the great woman's international peace congress at The Hague next month, just received here from Holland, show that the lirst move to be made in the congress will be to urge a truce in the European war. Women of practically all nations, in eluding those at war, are expected to attend the congress. Exercises will be held in Dutch, English, French and German. "Each of the belligerent nations claiming that it is not an aggressor but is fighting in self defense, all are asked to publicity define the terms on which they are willing to make peace says.the program. It is proposed that the women demand that all future international disputes shall be referred to again, the powers uniting to bring presure to boar on any country resort ing to arms. "The franchise for women as an effective means of preventing future wars is a topic of discussion and the congress is to be urged to adopt a declaration that there shall be no transferrence of territory without the full assent of the men and women in it."
