The ship was shelled by the submarine and men aboard her were wounded. The sub marine sent a crew aboard the vessel and removed a large quantity of sup plies. She then was permitted to pro ceed. The incident was the subject of a series of notes between the United States and the Austrian government. The Petrolite was formerly the steam ship Excelsior, under the German flag, and was transferred to American regis try with other ships of the Standard OH fleet, early In the war. She was built at Stettin. Germany, in 1898. She carried oil In bulk. Accused Murderer of Family Near Lynching By Mob in New Jersey TRENTON, N. J..

ROUSING RECEPTION ACCORDED PERSHING ON REACHING FRANCE Cheering Thousands, Some Moved to Tears, Welcome American Army Commander on Arrival at Boulogne WASHINGTON. June 13.—General Pershing will operate under General Petain, ttie French field marshal, and not under the British commander. What portion of the French front the first American contingent will take up will not be known for some time. BOULOGNE, France, June 13.—-Cheer ing thousands, some moved to tears, welcomed to French soil today the com mander-in-chief of the army which America is to send to join France in r aking the world safe for democracy. The tall, soldierly-appearing figure ot Major General John J. Pershing, garbed in the business-like khaki of the American army, was acclaimed as France has seldom acclaimed another in all her history. Frenzied crowds packed the streets to snout their joy and wave the tri-color of France with the same three colors of the Btar Span gled Banner. Pershing arrived at 9:40 this morn ing. He had made a quick and an un eventful trip over from England. France has been waiting eagerly for him to step on her soil. The tremendous re ception accorded here to the command of the American army will be but a marker to that which Paris is pre paring for 5 o'clock this afternoon, when Pershing and his staff arrive at the Gare du Nord. Pershing was deeply moved by the greeting he received. “I consider this one of the most im portant moments in American history," he said. "Our arrival on French soil, constituting as we do the advance guard of an American army, makes us realize to the fullest the importance of America’s participation. “Our reception has moved us deeply. 1 can only reaffirm that America has entered the war with the intention of performing her full share —however great or small, the future will dictate. Our allies can depend upon that abso lutely." French government officials formally welcomed Pershing and his staff in the name of the nation and the Americans were taken to a special train en route for Paris. While Pershing and the commission in the officers of his staff disembarked and were immediately taken away in au tomobiles, non-commissioned officers and privates— orderlies and attaches to the American general's entourage, swarmed off the vessel and mixed joyously with the crowd at the railway station. There were British Tommies there to welcome their new brothers in arms —and French poilus as well. Hundreds Os handshaking and embraces —marked the meeting of these representatives ot three great armies, now pledged to a common purpose. The crowds thrilled at the spectacle of the khaki groups ot three as they marched arm in arm. The Americans were .trying out their French, or swapping slang with the Tommies, and poilus were proudly ex hibiting their .English words in re turn while the Britishers tried to com press into a few minutes’ conversation some of the fighting lore they had learned at the front. It was hard work for the American non-coms to leave tneir new-found friends and board the train. The British Tommies were part ot those aboard several big British troop ships discharging their human cargoes at the time the Americans arrived. Boulogne harbor was alive early in the morning awaiting the arrival of the American general and his staff. The first notice that the ship was finally arriving came with the roar of salutes from French patrol boats In the outer harbor. Then the British troop ships hastily shifted their anchorage to al low the boat with its all-important car go to dock at the principal wharf. There a huge American flag was flung to the breeze from the topmost part of the landing stage, while on the dock itself a brilliant, colorful assembly awaited, cheering so that their welcome must have been heard far out over the waters as the boat slowly nosed her way between the whistle shrieking and gun-barking craft in between. On the dock were British, French and Belgian officers, all formally drawn up in. rigid salute as General Pershing first put his foot on French soli and gave evidence in the flesh of America’s determination to fight. Rene Besnard, under secretary of war, was the governmental representative at this notable scene. He arrived from Paris barely in time to scurry to the dock and shake hands with the Ameri can commander as he stepped ashore. A small French ooy who edged for ward in the crowds that greeted the American general was noticed by Persh ing. He wanted something, and Persh ing wanted to know what it was. He came forward and shyly shook hands with the big, smiling American and then asked him to sign an autograph album, proudly displaying the signatures which he had already obtained in it from Mar shal Joffre and Field Marshal Haig. General Pershing stopped right there and signed the book. At Paris, it wm announced today, Pershing will make his Headquarters in the Hotel Crlllon until he selects staff quarters at the French front. Excess Profits Tax Rate Agreed Upon WASHINGTON, June 13.—The senate flnace committee hoped to complete to day the excess profits and income tax sections of the war ervenue bill. Pro posals were pending both to substitute a new section containing much higher rates on large Incomes, and to reduce surtaxes on incomes above |40,600 be low the original house figure. The committee had to decide on an excess profits tax rate, which it seemed likely would be about 20 per cent, and to determine what year’s profits, or average of several years’ profits, shall be considered the basis for computatldn of excess. Crime Is Now on Decrease in Georgia Crime is decreasing in Georgia The prison commission’s annual re port shows a decrease of 170 in felony cases since last year and a decrease of 870 tn misdemeanor cases tn the same time. The commission gives no reason for this falling off in crime. Full Text of Wilson’s Speech (Continued from Page !•) Much as we had desired peace, it was denied us. and not of our own choice. This flag under which we serve would have been dishonored had we withheld our hand. But that is only part of the story. We know now as clearly as we knew before we were our selves engaged that we are not the enemies of the German people and that they are not our enemies. * * * They are themselves in the grip of the same sinister power that has now at last stretched its ugly talons out and drawn blood from us. The whole world is at war because the whole world is in the grip of that power and is trying out the great battle which shall determine whether it is to be brought under its mastery or fli.rig itself tree. PURPOSE OP GKBMANT ■WAR X.ONG BEEN AVOWED. The war was begun by the mili tary masters of Germany, who proved to be also the masters of Austria-Hungary. These men have never regarded nations as peoples, men, women and children of like blood and frame as themselves, for whom governments existed and in whom, governments had their life. They have regarded them merely as serviceable organizations which they could by force or intrigue bend or corrupt to their own pur pose. They have regarded the smaller states, in particular, and the peoples who could be over whelmed by force, as their natural tools and instruments of domina tion. Hheir purpose has long been avowed. The demands made by Austria upon Serbia were a mere single step in a plan which compassed Europe and Asia, from Berlin to Bagdad. They hoped these de mands might not arouse Europe, but they meant to press them whether they did or not, for they thought themselves ready for the final issue of arms. Their plan was to throw a broad belt of German military power and political control across the very center of Europe and beyond the Mediterranean into the heart of Asia; and Austria-Hungary was to be as much their tool and pawn as Serbia or Bulgaria or Turkey or the ponderous states of the east. Austria-Hungary, indeed, was to be come part of the central German empire, absorbed and dominated by the same torces and influences that . had originally cemented the German states themselves. . The dream had its heart at Berlin. It could have had a heart nowhere else! ... It contemplated bind ing together racial and political units which could be kept together only by force—Czechs, Magyars, Croats, Serbs, Rumanians. Turks, Armenians —the proud states of Bo hemia and Hungary, the stout little commonwealths of the Balkans, the indomitable Turks, the subtle peo ples of the east. These peoples did not wish to be united. They ardent ly desired to direct their own af fairs, would be satisfied only by undisputed Independence. GREATER, past of PDAN CARRIED INTO EXECUTION. . . . And they have actually carried the greater part of that amazing plan into execution! Look how things standi. . . . From Hamburg to the Persian gulf the net is spread. Is it not easy to understand the eagerness for peace that has been manifested from Berlin ever since the snare was set and sprung? Peace, peace, peace, has been the talk of her foreign office for now a year and more; not peace upon her own initiative, but upon the initia tive of the nations over which she now deems herself to hold the ad vantage. v A little of the talk has been pub lic, but most of it has been private. Through all sorts of channels it has come to me, and in all sorts of guises, but never with the terms disclosed which the German govern ment would be willing to accept. That government has other valuable pawns in its hands besides those I have mentioned. It still holds a val uable part of France, though with slowly relaxing grasp, and practi cally the whole of Belgium. Its. armies cannot go farther; it dare not go back. It wishes to close its bargain before it is too late and it has little left to offer for the pound of flesh it will demand. The military masters under whom Germany is bleeding see vfcry clearly to what point fate has brought them. If they fall back or are forced back an inch, their power both abroad and at home will fall to pieces like a house of cards. It is their power at home they are think ing about now more than their pow er abroad. It is that power which is trembling under their very feet; and deep fear has entered their hearts. They have but one chance to perpetuate their military power or even their controlling political Influence. If they can secure peace now, with the immense advantages still in their hands which they have up this point apparently gained, they will have justified themselves before the German people. WIU3ON BARES REASON FOB NEW PEACE INTRIGUE. If they fail, their people will thrust them aside; a government ac countable to the people themselves will be set up in Germany as it has been in England, in the United States, in France, and in all the great countries of the modern time except Germany. If they succeed they are safe and Germany and the world are undone; If tfrey fail Ger many is saved and the world will be at peace. If they succeed, America will fall within the menace. We and all the rest of the world must re main armed, as they will remain, and must make ready for the next step in their aggression; if they fail, the world may unite for peace and Germany may be of the union. Do you not now understand ttie new intrigue, the intrigue for peace, and why the masters of Germany do not hesitate to use any agency that promises to effect their purpose, the deceit of the nations? Their present particular alm is to deceive all those who throughout the world stand for the rights of peoples and the self-government of nations; for they see what immense strength the forces of justice and of liberalism are gathering out of this war. They are employing liberals in their en terprise. They are using men, in Germany and without, as their spokesmen whom they have hitherto despised and oppressed, using them for their own destruction —social- ists,. the leaders of labor, the thlnK ers they have hitherto sought to silence. Let them once succeed and these men, now their tools, will be ground to powder beneath the weight of the military empire they will have set up; the revolutionists in Russia wID be cut off from all succor or co operation in western Europe and a counter revolution fostered and sup ported; Germany herself will lose her chance of freedom; and all Eu rope will arm for the next, the final struggle. SINISTER INFLUENCE IS BEING FBLT IN AMERCA. The sinister intrigue is being no less actively conducted in this coun try than in Russia and in every country in Europe by the agents and dupes to which the German imperial government can get access. That government has many spokesmen here, in places high and low. They have learned discretion. They keep within the law. It is opinion they utter now, not sedition. They pro claim the liberal purposes of their masters; declare this a foreign war ivnich can touch America with no danger to either her lands or her in stitutions; set England at the cen ter of the stage and talk of her am bition to assert economic dominion throughout the world; appeal to our ancient tradition of isolation in the politics of the nations; and seek to undermine the government with false professions of loyalty to its principles. But they will make no headway. The false betray themselves always in every accent. It is only friends and partisans of the German gov ernment whom we have already iden tified who utter these disguised dis loyalties. The facts are patent to all the world, and nowhere are they more plainly seen than in the United States, where we are accustomed to deal with facts and not with sophistries; and the great fact that stands out above all the rest is that this la a peoples’ war, a war for freedom and justice and self-gov ernment amongst all the nations of the world, a war to make the world safe for the peoples who live upon It and have made it their own. the German people themselves includ ed; and that with us rests the choice to break through all these hyprocri •iea and patent cheats and masks of brute force and help set the world free, or else stand aside and let it be dominated a long age through by eheer weight of arms and the arbi trary choices of self-constituted masters, by the nation which can maintain the biggest armies and the most irresistible armaments —a pow er to which the world has afforded no parallel and in the fact of which political freedom must wither and perish. For us there is but one choice. We have made it. Woe be to the man or group of men who seek to stand in our way in this day of high resolution, when every princi ple we hold dearest Is to be vindi cated and made secure for the sal vation of the nations. We are ready to plead at the bar of history, and our flag shall wear a new luster. Once more we shall make good with our lives and fortunes the great faith to which we were born, and a new glory shall shine in the face of our people. .

GOETHftLS CHARGED Plan to Oust Head of Shipping Board Is Discussed in ’ Senate WASHINGTON. June 13. —A propa ganda aimed to dislodge General Goe thals as manager of the government shipping board was revealed in the senate today by Senator Lodge. The disclosure came during discussion of a conference report on the three billion dollar war budget bill which eliminated reference to Goethals in specifying how moneys should be paid out for ship construction. ”T know there is an effort on foot to try to drive General Goethals from office.” Senator Lodge charged. “Let ters were to havo been sent to every member of the house and senate and the object was to have congress investi gate General Goethals. These letters asked why more had not been done by the shipping board and why we weren’t building wooden ships. “I need not say that General Goethals Is a very great administrator and that it would be disastrous if he were re moved.” Democratic members in charge of the bill expressed full agreement with Sen ator Lodge on this point and said that Goethals had been questioned regard ing the new wording of the war budget section affecting him and he had ex pressed full approval of it. Reassured that Goethals would re main in his present position, the sen ate adopted the war budget report. $25,000,000L0an Bonds Bought By U. S. Steel; Total Now, $50,000,000 NEW YORK.

Billy was spending his day of rest with Rockefeller. He said he had seen a lot of country estates, but that Pocantlco Hills “had ’em all stopped." ITALIANS. SALUTED BY ROAR OF CANNON IT FORT. mH PARADE While United States Soldiers Face Visiting Soldiers, Ger man Sailor Prisoners Look on From Barbed Wire Fence In the bright sunshine of 10 o’clock Wednesday morning the members of the Italian commission to America motored through the gateway at Fort McPherson, while a cannon just inside the post boomed a salute of nineteen guns. Fifteen minutes later they stood be neath the shade trees bordering Officers’ Row and watched the Seventeenth In fantry and the men of the officers' train ing camp pass in review to the blare of a military march. It was a picture none present will ever forget. Fort McPherson lay before them like a painter’s landscape, the parade ground a brilliant green beneath the scorching i sun, green trees pluming up against a background of red brick, buildings, the j white uniforms of the interned German • sailors dotted thick against the barbed wire barricade, and a line of olive drab stretched from east to west almost as far as the eye could see. United States soldiers faced Italian soldiers, while German sailors watched it all and must have wondered greatly among themselves. In front of the little group beneath the shade trees stood Colonel Charles K. Noyes, commanding the Seventeenth in fantry; General Guglielmotti, military attache of the Italian embassy at Wash ington, and Captain Guglialmo Marconi, senator of the Italian kingdom, officer in the Italian army, the man who belted the world by wireless. REVIEW THE PARADE. They stood shoulder to shoulder while the troops marched past— Colonel Noyes, in olive drab; General Guglielmotti, in gray-green uniform of the Italian army, collar slashed wjth crimson facings and em broidered with a gold star, a straight,' stalwart figure of a man, with liquid l brown eyes, a brown imperial ana| waxea brown mustache; And Captain Marconi in the uniform of the Italian navy, white from head to foot save for the blue collar and the gold star of his rank, his up, his extraordinarily young face aglow with interest, Jus single, bright blue eye' roving across rank after rank of sol diers as they swung by. Just behind them were the other mem bers of the commission, heads bared, surrounding their leader, Enrico Arlotta, Italian minister of transportation, who stood beside Mayor Candler and every now and then uttered a single word— “ Beautiful! Beautiful!” At the conclusion of the parade, the Italian newspaper man with the com mission turned to the American news paper men and said; “It has been a glorious sight. 1 al ways believed the Americans were a race of fighting men. Now 1 know it. Better still, those men out there”—he waved an impressive hand at the line of olive drab —‘know it better than anybody else!” i The commission, which left Washing ton at 1 o’clock Tuesday afternoon, trav eling on board a special train over the Southern railway, reached Atiatna at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning. 11,000 Unregistered Men in Twin Cities to Surrender En Masse MINNEAPOLIS, June 13.—Eleven thousand unregistered men in Minneap olis and St. Paul will begin a fight against the draft by surrendering to federal officials in a big demonstration. I Abe Sugarman, secretary of the state Socialist party, announced today. He declared 7,000 failed to register in Min neapolis and 4,000 in St. Paul. Sugar man has been the leader of anti-con- I scription activities here but himself registered and has been carrying on his propaganda unmolested. More Corn, Less Wheat Bread, Says J. J. Brown J. J. Brown, state commissioner of agriculture, in a statemert issued Wed nesday morning, predicts that the corn belt will be moved to the “heart of the I old cotton belt”—largely to the state of! Georgia; and present figures to prove I that the nation must begin to eat corn bread or go on half rations of flour. YES! MAGICALLY! CORNS LIFT OUT WITH FINGERS You simply say to the drug store man, “Give me a quarter of an ounce of freezone.” This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn from one’s feet. A few drops of this new ether com pound applied directly upon a tender, aching corn should relieve the sore ness instantly, and soon the entire corn, root and all, dries up and can be lift ed out with the fingers. This new way to rid one’s feet of corns was introduced by a Cincinnati man. who says that, while freezone is sticky, it dries in a moment, and sim ply shrivels up the corn without in flaming or even irritating the surround ing tissue or skin.
