Military Commander at Sonera Makes
Remarkable Statement to the Asso?
ciated Press Bcrms to be Going In
for Peaco Sends Troops to Farms.
Douglas, Aril.. July 10.?In a state?
ment Issued to tbe Associated Press
tonight Gen. Calles, military com?
mander at Sonora. said:
'Advices 1 received today from
Mexico City were so satisfactory they
made me feel so sure there can be
no break between Mexico and the Uni?
ted States that I have ordered the de?
mobilisation of my troops now In the
border districts and their discharge
from the national service and ordered
the re-openlng of all public offices
along the border.
"I have also extended an Invitation
to foreigners to return to Sonora and
*tll protect them and their property.
'AH of the volunteers who took up
arms for their country have been or ?
dered to their homes to plant their
fields and aid the government In
bringing about a return of normal
conditions.
"The railroads of Sonora will re?
open for public traffic immediately,
and I have ordered the bulk of my
troops to proceed to the Taqul river
valley to take up the Indian campaign
once more In order that life and
property ef Mexicans and foreigners
might be safe.
'Each of my subordinate comman?
ders has been Instructed to punish any
one. soldier or civilian, who does not
extend every courtesy to foreigners."
Gen. Calles sent the same mes?
sage to Gen. Davis, commander of the
Aiisona district, tonight. j
The managers of several of the
large mining properties In Sonora held
conferences with Gen. Calles today by
his request and .personally received
the invitation of the Mexican govern?
ment to return to work with their
foreign employes. Several Indicated
that they were ready to return to
work as soon as the embargo against
explosives bad been raised.

I? r\ i??e' been continuously In the
since 1877, and has attended
every ifle shoot held by the State
militia. "Capt. Mller's service to tho
I regiment has been most faithful and
emc.ent, ami tt Is with deep regret
that the regiment gives ap his sot**
leas," said Col. Holmes B. Springs in
speaking of the matter. Capt. Miller
returns to his home at Bummervlllc.
Several ladles of Charleston and
Columbia have kindly offered to pr?.
sent the Id with a regimental flag,
but because In the present service
(there is no official recognition for
any flag except theee with which the
regiment Is now official y equipped, Col
Springs regretfully told the ladies that
there would be no use for them to go
to the trouble to make the flag. He
appreciates highly their patriotism
and intereet in the matter, and it Is
only the rigid rules of the servtyo
which forced him to decline the prof?
fer of the flag. The entire regiment
appr^ciatee the kind offer or the la?
dles In this matter.
Col. Springs has been flooded with
letters, telegrams, by telephone and
In person with calls regarding the re?
cent legislation affecting the discbarge
of those Guardsmen with dependent
families. The war department is now
preparing the blanks for this matter
and will In due time send them to tho
company commanders. However, the
war department has not Issued any In?
structions regarding the release of
those coming under this legislation
and the colonels can do nothing.
When the war department sends the
blanks and the necessary require?
ments the cases will be directed
through the proper channels, and so
It Is useless to bother either Col.
Blythe or Col. Springs about this mat?
ter until notice is given that the
proper instructions have been receiv?
ed from the war department.
The German Fusiliers underwent
physical examination this afternoon.
The results of the examination will

REVENUE MEASURE PASSED.
CREATES TARIFF COMMISSION
AND IMPOSES PROTECTIVE
TARIFF ON DYESUFFS.
Provides for New Taxes on Incomes,
Inheritance* and War Munitions
Profit??Vote was 240 to 140?Re?
peals Stamp Taxes.
Washington, July 10.?The admin?
istration's omnibus revenue bill, cre?
ating a tariff commission, imposing a
protective tariff on dyestuff, repealing
present stamp taxes and providing for
new taxes on incomes, inheritances
and war munitions profits, passed the
house lato today by a vote of 240 to
140.
During the closinr hours of debate
several amendments providing for
elimination of the bankers' tax and
modifying the tariff commission, wer?
adopted over the opposition of Dem?
ocratic leaders. On the final roll call
the Democrats voted solidly for the
bill and were, joined by 34 Republi?
cans, five progressive Republicans,
one Independent and one Socialist.
The amendments adopted cut the
salaries of the tariff commission from
$10,000 to $7,500 annually; struck out
the provision under which no member
or former member of Congress could
serve on the commission and provided
a single appropriation of $300,000 to
pay expenses of the commission the
first year instead of a continuing an?
nual appropriation of that amount.
The entire section levying a tax of $1
for each $1,000 of capital, surplus and
undivided profits held by bankers
was stricken out.
Many amendments proposed by the
Ways and Means committee also were
adopted, including one under which
cigarette manufacturers must pay a
special tax of three cents for every
10,000 cigarettes.
A final Republican stand against the
measure was led by Representative
Fordney, ranking Republican member
of the ways and means committee,
who moved that it be re-oommitted
with instructions "to amend it so as
to raise an equitable portion of the
required revenue from a protectfvu
tariff sufficient to protect adequately
American industry and American la?
bor." Deocratic Leader Kitchln made
a point of order against the- motion
and was sustained by Speaker Clark,
whose ruling was Upheld by the
house on an apeal.
The bill, which now goes to the
senate, increaso ths sur-tax on In?
comes, ranging from an additional 1
per cent on incomes between $20,
000 and $40,000, to 10 per cent addi?
tional on those above $800,000 and
taxes on transfers of estates valued at
550,000 or more and net profits of war
munitions manufacturers with an ex?
emption of those having less..than 10
per cent, profit.
The new taxes are expected to yield
$197,000,000 annually.
The tariff commission would be
composed of tlve members, no more
than three to be of the same political
party, and would have broad powers
of Investigation.

SUBMARINE COMMERCE LINERS
FLEET OF THEM TO BE ENGAG?
ED IN TRADE IN SHORT
TIME.
Captain Koenig of Deutschland States
That Germany is Just Setting Out on
New Phase of Trade?English Rule
of Seas Broken,
Baltimore, July 0.1?The German
submarine merchantman Deutschland
tonight was ready to discharge her
$1,000,000 cargo and take aboard for
the return trip metal and rubber need?
ed by the emperor's armies and navy.
The return merchandise is waiting on
the dock and the time for leaving port I
will depend largely upon plans for
eluding vigilant enemy cruisers ex?
pected to be waiting out-ide the en?
trance of Chesapeake bay.
The daring German seamen who
brought the Deutschland across the
Atlantic slept quietly aboard their ves?
sel, which lay moored to a carefuully
screened pier guarded by a strong
squad of Baltimore police. Capt. Paul
Koenig, tho skipper, had delivered his
papers to the North German Lloyd
office, entered his vessel at the cus?
toms house as a commerce carrier and
had presented to the German embassy
officially a package of correspondence
for Count von Bernstorff.
One of Capt Koenlg'a first acts af?
ter he moved his ship up the harbor
from quarantine early today was to
announce that the Deutschland was
but one of a fleet of mammoth sub
mersibles built or building for a regu?
lar trans-Atlantic freight and mall
service. He said the next to come
would be the Bremen and that she
might be looked for at some port
along the coast within eight weeks.
Anxious to establish promptly his
peaceful character and to forestall In?
vestigation sought by diplomatic rep?
resentatives of the allied powers, the
German captain submitted his craft to
a thorough inspection by the surveyor
of the port and an agent' of the de?
partment of justice. These officers, as
well as the customs inspectors and
quarantine surgeons, agreed that there
was no sign of armament of any de?
scription on board and that there was
no doubt in their minds about the
boat being entitled to the status of an
ordinary merchantman.
Neither Capt. Koenig nor agents of
the North German Lloyd line, to
whom the boat is consigned, evinced
the slightest uneasiness over the sug?
gestion that there might be diplomatic
difficulties.
It was stated on the authority of
the captain that the only arms on
board were four automatic pistols be?
longing to the officers and a sports?
man's rifle for firing rockets.
This was a busy day for the com?
mander. At dawn quarantine officers
came aboard, received the bill of
health Issued by the American consul
at Bremen and passed the Deutsch?
land into port. Once safely alongside
his dock, Capt. Koenig called his crew
ashore and posed with them for mov?
ing picture and newspaper photogra?
phers.
Later at the office of the North
German Lloyd line he issued a type?
written statement telling of tho com?
ing of the other boats like the
Deutschland and asserting that his
voyage had broken the British control
of the seas. At the .same time, he sub?
mitted to an interview in which he de?
scribed his 3,800 mile cruise from
Heligoland to Chesapeake bay. Ho
denied reports that he had been
chased off his course by enemy war?
ships. The captain asserted further
that his voyage had established the
fact that a submarine of the type of
the Deutschland could travel any?
where that an ordinary vessel could
go 13,000 miles, if necessary. He had
eluded enemies that might be waiting
for him off the Virginia capes when
he starts his return trip.
During nearly the entire voyage to
America, said Capt. Koenig, the
Deutschladn traveled on the surface.
Once she submerged for ten hours
and lay during that time on the bot
torn of the English channel to escape
British destroyers. Capt. Koenig pi?
loted his vessel out of Bremen on
June 14. He went directly to Heligo?
land, remaining there nine days. On
June 23 the trip which ended in Bal?
timore today wag begun.
After completing the formalities
with the port authorities, Capt. Koe.
nig was invited to luncheon as tho
guest of honor of the German club
and there delivered to Hanlel von
Haimhausen, counsellor of the Ger?
man embassy, the packet of official
correspondence for Count von Bern?
storff. The counsellor went back to
New York tonight.
"I have come here," said the em?
bassy representative, "to present the
personal compliments of Tount von
BernstortT to Capt. Koenig and to
congratulate him upon his wonderful
achievement. The ambassador haa
no official Interest In the Deutschland.
Capt. Koenig has tlurned over to me
some correspondence which I am tak?
ing back to the ambassador, but I
have no knowledge of Its nature."
(""apt. Koenig returned to tho offices
of his agents and furnished details of
THE FARMERS' SHORT COURSE
A GOOD CHEAP AND INSTRUCTIVE
VACATION MAY BE HAD AT
CLEMSON COLLEGE.
James Hutflcld and Wilbur Prescott to
Represent Sumtcr Corn Club at
demson College this Summer.
The institute or summer course for
formers, will be held at Clemson Col?
lege this summer as it was last year. |
Each of the four weeks wil be a unit,
taking up a subject and finishing it in
a week. The first subject will be
poultry, then horticulture, live stock,
and farm crops. Last year only about
ten or twelve from Sumter county
visited Clemson during the Farmers'
Short Course. At least fifty farmers
should take advantage of the lectures
for a week or more. Farmers need a
vacation for a week or two and a
great many take it, but instead of go?
ing to Clemson where the expense will
not be more than a dollar a day and
where they might learn something
about how to grow an up-to-date or?
chard, live stock, dairying or injurious
crop insect pests, a number of them
will go to Glenn Springs, or some sea
side resort, where they can spend as
much in two days as it would take for
a week at Clemson. Messrs. J. M.
Kolb, W. E. Kolb and B. R. Barkley
made the trip last year to Clemson in
a Ford car and reported a splendid
trip. I have heard others planning
to make a similar trip this summer.
It takes a trip through the hilly up
country to make you properly appre?
ciate your farm in Sumter county.
The Corn Club boys will be at Clem?
son at the same time that the short
course will be in session. James Hat
field ?and Wilbur Prescott are the win?
ners of this trip in Sumter county.
Really Richard Wells, the veteran
champion, one of the boys who took
the course last year won It again this
year, but declined the trip in favor of
the boy making the next highest aver?
age.
J. Frank Williams,
County Agent.
his voyage and the construction of the
submarine.
"Before beginning our trip," said
Capt. Koenig, "we had several weeks
of practice in our vessel in the Baltic
sea. We left Bremen without any
ceremonies. Of course that was
necessary because the voyage was to
be kept secret.
"When we got to Heligoland, we
decided that it was best to stay there
a little while.
"Coming through the North sea we
saw hostile destroyers, cruisers and
patrol boats and submerged flvo
times. I do not think the enemy ves?
sels saw us. In the English chan?
nel we submerged six times in all
and in the Atlantic four ,the last oc?
casion being when we sighted a United
Fruit company's steamer the day be?
fore our arrival at the capes.
"When we left Bremen we had ISO
tons of fuel oil aboard and there are
now 95 tons left In the tanks. We
had 20 tons of water when we started
and still have ten left."
Capt. Koenig was asked to explain
what devices the Deutschland had fo#
finding her way under water and
avoiding danger.
"We have two," he said. "One Is
the microphone ,the other a ?sounding
apparatus. With the microphone you
can hear submarine bell buoys six
miles away and the propellers of ships
still further. By the tone of the
noise made by the screw of a vessel
you can tell her type. A destroyer's
makes a loud hum, a cruiser's is
lower, i
"In this submarine we can do
everything under the surface that we
can do on it. We can drop anchor
while submerged, cruise below the
surface four days If necessary, or lie
still on the bottom until our food and
water give out."
Capt. Koenig was asked how he
and his men employed their time
while making hte voyage.
"Well," said he, "we had phono?
graphs. They were a source of much
entertainment. No, we didn't have
a record of 'Tipperary.' "
The captain seemed to enjoy the
reference to the English marching
song.
"Of course," he continued, "all the
men smoked while they were on
deck. It Is forbidden to smoke below
deck In a submurine. We read a lot,
too. I have aboard a library of 40
volumes. There is Shakespere and
then I have some of Bret Harte, W.
W. Jacobs' sea tales. Mark Twaln'e
?Innocents Abroad' and Charles Dick?
ens. No, 1 haven't got Jules Vernes
"Twenty Thousand Leagues Under
the Sea." It requires too much imag?
ination to read that.
"I am the oldest man on the boat.
I am 4 9 and the youngest member of
the crew is 21. Nearly all of us have
left wives and children behind in
Germany. I am a native of Saxony,
but my home has been In Bremen
since 1883."
Capt. Koenig was today the re?
cipient of hundreds of congratulatory
telegrams from all sections of the
country. Many of them came from
German societies.
BUSINESS NEED HOT F?U
IF HONEST, DEMOCRATIC ADMIN?
ISTRATION WILL NOT MOLEST
IT SAYS WILSON.
President Says That Friendly Feeling
is Felt for Legitimate Enterprise?
Urges Peaceful Common Sense Set?
tlements of Industrial Problems.
Detroit, Mich., July 10.?President
Wilson urged peace reached by mu?
tual understanding rather than force
and defended the Democratic party
as a friend of business in speeches to?
day to enthusiastic Michigan audi-'
ences. Detroit's streets were lined
with thousands of persons who shout?
ed greetings and waved American
flags at him wherever he appeared
The hall in which he spoke to the
World's Salesmanship congress was
Jammed, an audience estimated at 60,
000 greeted him at the Ford motor
plant and tonight in Toledo another
throng listened to his brief platform
address.
"Peace," was the shouted response
of the salesmanship audience when
the president asked them what they
desired when the present world strug?
gles are at an end. And he added that
"permanent peace" was his desire.
At a non-partisan luncheon in the
Detroit Athletic club the president
sprang to the defense of the . Demo?
crats. A prominent Republican had
told him during the day that he had.
been deriving pleasure from associa?
tion with Democrats, and the execu?
tive recited the incident and declared
that he long had enjoyed the friend?
ship and companionship of Republi?
cans, because, being a teacher, he
"would like to teach them something."
"We have been trying, some of us.
for a good many years to teach in
politics, as well as elsewhere, this
lesson, that we are all in the same
boat/' he said. "We have common
interests, and It is our business to un?
derstand and serve those common in?
terests.
"I dare say that you have noticed
that the same necessity to make a liv?
ing is imposed upon Democrats and
Republicans, and I dare say you are
ready to believe that Democrats are
just Ke Willing to make a good living
as Republicans. Therefore, it seems
to me logically to follow, though I
have been quoted as having no regard
for logic, that Democrats are natu
ally as much Interested In the busi?
ness prosperity of the United States
as anybody else. So that If you be?
lieve that they are not as fitted to
guide it as other persons, you can not
be doubting their Interests; you are
only impugning their Intelligence."'
"The suspicion Is beginning to
dawn," he added, "that the average
man understands the business neces?
sities of the country as well as the
extraordinary man.
"An act," he added, "was recently
passed in congress that some of the
most intelligent business men of this
country earnestly opposed ? men
whom I knew, men whose character
I trusted, men whose integrity I ab?
solutely believed In. I refer to the
federal resrve act by which we in?
tended, and succeeded in taking credit
out of the control of a small number
Of men and making it available to
everybody who had real commercial
assets, and the very men who opposed
that act and opposed it conscientious?
ly now admit that it saved the coun?
try from a ruinous panic when the
stress of war came on and that It is
the salvation of every average busi?
ness man who is In the midst of the
tides that I have been trying to de?
scribe.
"What does that mean gentlemen?
It means that you can get a settled
point of view and can conscientious?
ly oppose progress if you do not need
progress yourself. That is what |t
ritans. I am not impugning the In?
telligence even of the men who op?
posed these things because the same
thing happens to every man if he is
not of extraordinary makeup, that he
can not see the necessity for a thing
that he does not himself need. When
you have abundant credit and con?
trol of credit, you of course, do not
need that the area of credit should be
broadened."
WILL INVESTIGATE VILLA.
Reports of His Activities Will Be
Thoroughly Sifted.
Washington. July It,?A searching
investigation of the reports of VII
lista activities in Mexico has been
ordered by the president. State and
war department agents have orders
to report all obtainable facts con?
cerning Villa's whereabouts. Presi?
dent Wilson and the cabinet at the
meeting today considered the informa?
tion Mexican Ambassador Arredondo
furnished concerning Villa. Officials
declared that there will be no change
of policy now. The militia will be
retained at border posts until It Is
certain that the Mexican government
has stamped out brigandage.
