10 RAID GULF WATERS
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—A possibili- |
, that Germany has established, or
ceeking to establish, a submarine
ase on the Mexican coast is con
ined in the latest developments in
he U-boat raid on shipping in Amer
an waters
The last reported position of the
.50 was 158 miles due east of Fire
<land, which is considerable distance
outh of the Nantucket shoals zone
here she was operating on Sunday.
A high British official stated that
e helieved Captain Rose, of the U-53,
ight head for the Gulf of Mexico
nd attempt to resume raiding oper
tions. But he admitted that the
emptation of sinking ships such as
he Adriatic, the Philadelphian and
e Minnehaha might induce him to
nger off New York.
The Minnehaha will ecarry 10,000
ns of war materials when she sails,
hile other great cargoes of war sup
lies will be carried on the Adriatic
d Philadelphian.
The mysetry of the Kingston or
ingstonian, which was reported to
ave been sunk off Nantucke on Sun
ay, has not yet been cleared up. It
as not yet been definitely establish

v the Germans.
‘The Philadelphian, Adriatic and

o U-Boat Blockade
0f U. 8. Is Expected
BY JOHN EDWIN NEVIN,
taff Correspondent of International
News Service.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—Germany
s expected to agree not to try to
lockade American ports with her
übmarine fleet. She will, however,
nsist on her right to operate gener-
Ily along the regular steamship lanes
n her attacks upon “enemy com
nerce
That will be the position which will
e assumed when this Government
eiterates to Germany a similar pro
est to that which was made against
he Anglo-French operations off the
ig harbors of the Atlantic coast, ac
ording to diplomatic officials here
ho know the facts. Germany, it
ras said, already has considered the
ffect submarine operations on this
ide of the ocean would have on
merican public sentiment and the
rip of the U-53 and U-61 was for
he purpose of bringing the matter
0o a head
The fact that the United States, as
he leading neutral, has refused to
ccept the contention of the Entente
llies that submarines should be de
ied the use of American ports, is ex
ected to aid in an amicable solution
f the submarine question 'if the
nited States, as now is considered
ertain, makes a friendly request to
rermany to kep her underwater craft
way from American waters.
The American note refusing to
lange the rules of the game, as made
üblic last night, was the subject of
eneral discussion in diplomatic eir
les here today. It was felt that it
2d squarely met an issue that was
ound to be troublesome anyhow, and
hat by maintaining the position that
nternational law must be respected
v the United States, this Govern
ment evades what might have proved
dangerous trap later on.
Officlals here realize fully that the
eneral international situation is
rowing more and more dangerous
ally. All of the belligerent powers
re Interfering with American rights
nd there seemingly is no possibility
f redress under present conditions.
riction has been apparent for some
"eeks between the various belliger
nt embassies here and the State De
bartment and all of the causes lead
"g up to this situation now are be
ng discussed by President Wilson and
ecretary Lansing.

U-Boats Convoyed by
Deutschland,ls Belief
(By International News Service.) :
PARIS, Oct. 11.—The belief that the
German submarines operating off the
American coast are mothered by the
subsea freighter Deutschland was ex
pressed here today by Henry O. Berg,
of New York, formerly a builder of
submarines. He says the Deutschland
could carry 1,000 tons of fuel, convoy
five fighting submarines across the
Atlantic at cruising speed, keep them
supplied with fuel for 120 days and
return with them to a German port. |

U. 8. Seeks German i
Base on Its Coast
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—The
United States now has in progress
one of the most comprekensive
searches ever undertaken. Its object
is to determine absolutely whether
there is a German U-boat- base on
American territory. British and
French agents in New York and Bos
ton have said that there was, and
that parts for submarines were being
manufactured here ang sent to an un
located point for assembling.
The entire resources of the State
Department, the Navy Department
and the Department of Justice are
being utilized to investigate this al
legation, although officials declare it
is their opinion there is no truth in
it. It is realized, however, that such
a base may have been established in
the West Indies or along the coast of
Central America. Naval officers,
however, scout this theory, and de
clare that the German submarines are
being supplied from “mother ships,”
which either shipped from neutral
countries or slipped through the
blockade, as the Moewe did.

Steamer Picks Up
.
5 Empty Lifeboats
(By Intsrna'tional News Service.)
NEWPORT, R. 1, Oct. 11.—The
steamship Antonio I.opez, eastward
bound, reported by wireless today that
she had picked up five abandoned life
boats off Nantucket shoals. It was
in that vicinity that German subma
rines carried out their raid on Sunday.
All the boats were in good condition
and one had “Liverpool” painted on
it, but they bore no nthrks to show
what ships they were from. It is be
lieved that the boats belong to ships
sunk on Sunday and that they were
abandoned after their crews were
picked up by destroyers.
‘Mystery’ Note of
yU 5%7 Made Public
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—The
mystery of the letter to Ambassador
von Bernstorff brought to Newport,
R. I, by Captain Hans Rose, on the
German submarine U-53, was cleared
up this afternoon.
The German embassy announced
that the letter contained only formal
information that the U-53 had enter
ed an American port and would de
part within less than 24 hours. The
embassy pointed out that all Ger
man submarine commanders who en
ter neutral ports must make such re
ports to the German Ambassador in

Before a crowd of trolley strikers
and friends which filled the courtroom
Wednesday L. W. Beneflield, motor
man, was tried before Recorder John
son for his affray last Saturday with
strikers on McDonough road. Bene
field was fined $10.75 for cursing in
the presence of several women and
held under SIOO bond on the charge of
carrying a pistol without a license.
The five strikers engaged in the fight
were dismissed. '
Whether or not the use of the word
“scab” as applied tc a street car op
erative was a violation of law was a
point discussed heatedly by Judge
Johnson and the attorneys for the
street car company, who defended
Benefield. It was shown that the
strikers congregated on McDonough
road when Benefield's car approached
had applied the offensive word to the
motorman,
“We want you to bind these men
over so we can take the case to a
higher court and make a test of the
offense of using that word,” Insisted
the trolley company attorneys.
~ “I will not send these men to Jjail
and jeopardize their liberty in order
to let you make a test case,” retorted
the judge. “The City Attorney can
find nothing in the law against the
use of the word. If these men had
said ‘damn scab’ I would fine them,
but the plain word 1s neither profane
nor obscene.”
The evidence showed that when
Benefield's car approached the crowd
in which were H. H., H. C,, J. H. and
H. L. Stevens, No. 210 McDonough
road, and R. T. Hammock, No. 835
Lakewood avenue, all striking em
ployees, they called him a “scab.”
Then, it was shown, Benefleld got off
the car and walked toward them, put
ting his hand on his pistol. They set
upon him and beat him badly, and all
were arrested shortly afterward.
The Stevens brothers said a war
rant had been taken out by them in
the Municipal Court against W. C.
Stock, conductor on the same car,
charging him with carrying a pistol.
They said Mrs. A. E. Mahaffy saw
him draw the weapon and start from
the car toward the crowd. Attorney
John 8. McClelland represented the
group of strikers.
J. J. Tanner, a nonunion conductor,
and Ray Ferguson, a striker, appeared
in court, each having complained of
the other. Ferguson, on picket duty
at the circus grounds, had urged Tan
ner to join the strikers. Tanner re
fused ‘and cursed the union. Judge
Johnson fined him $5.75 and dismissed
Ferguson, saying he had a right to
work for the union if he did it in an
orderly manner,

me, which means I'm a scab,” said
Pannelle, indignantly.
“I was just rolling up my sleeves,
which I've a right to do,” declared
Mrs. McCutcheon. “But he stuck his
thumb to his nose to insult me.”
“I was just blowing my nose,
Judge, which I've a right to do,”
explained Pannelle,
“He did it three times, Judge,” in
sisted Mrs. McCutcheon.
“That's twice too often,” said the
Recorder. “Five seventy-five for

The Goodyear Tire ¢ Rubber Co.,
Atlanta, Ga.
Gentlemen:
The chics reason why we sell Goodyear Tires is simply
because of the enormous demand for them in Atlanta.
We might handle some other tires that offer larger dis
counts but we prefer the Goodyear Tire because we can sell
many more than any other make. '
The Goodyear Company have made wonderful improve
menis in their tires in the last few years and they are giving
. extremely good service.
Yours very truly,

X Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.,
Atlanta, Ga,
Gentlemen:
On August first we put in a run of sizes in both your
Cord and Fabric Tires, and at the end of the first month
were very much surprised at the increase in the volume of
our business,
Up until this time we could never see where it would be ,
to our interest to handle a tire on which the margin of profit £
was as small as it is on your tire. i
Now, we can see in this short time that we can make
more profit by selling your tires for two reasons. First,
because we can better satisfy our customers with the service
they give, thereby holding our trade. Second, because you &
have a consumer’s demand in Atlanta unequaled by any ;
tire we know of. This enables us to make more sales at
less expense.
So this is why we have decided 1o carry and pushk Good- |
year Tires. Yours very truly, ; #

Gentlemen: - 3
For three years we have experimented with tires trying to
find the tire that would give our trade the greatest satisfac
tion. In this time we have had some of the lowest and some
of the highest priced tires on the market—we have at all r
times sold some Goodyears.
So after watching and checking up the service given by
the various lines on the cars of our customers, we have come -
to the conclusion that Goodyears are the tires we want 1o
stock and sell.
The satisfaction they give compared to the other lines we
have sold, coupled with the demand there is in Atlanta for
them, is why we sell Goodyear Tires. :
Yours very truly,
