Reviewing the party history the statement adds: "In the 1914 and 1916 primaries the Progressive voters of 1912 deliberately and in overwhelming numbers abandoned the Progressive party. The refusal of the Progressive national committee to favor a third ticket candidacy did no more than to make final judgment entered by the Progressive voters themselves. When the Progressive convention had adjourned and the entire situation was considered it was manifest that the end which the voters had decreed had come that the Progressive party was dead."

The roll call on the amendment was not disclosed. Thone who favored it emphasized the grave necessity for additional revenue, and had estimates before them showing that the proposed exemption reductions would add about $6,000,000 annually to the treasury. It probably would increase several fold the total number of taxable.

JAPANESE VESSEL IS DETECTED MAKING SURVEYS AT PANAMA 5. WASHINGTON. Aug.suspected of being spies employed by foreign, governments to acquire Information regarding the nature and extent of the defenses of the Panama canal have made the administration decide to request Congress to supplement the existing laws against the improper acquisition of knowledge of military and naval plans and fortifications. Representatives of the department of Justice and the war and navy departments have been in conference on the subject and It Is expected that they will agree upon some very drastic legislation to be submitted to Congress. Several of the military powers of the world are believed to have undertaken to obtain information as to the character of the defenses of the Panama canal. The latest incident to excite suspicion is the operations of a little Japanese power vessel, ostensibly a fishing launch, which sought to obtain a permit for pearl fishing in the waters of Panama bay and vicinity. The canal authorities have been warned that this craft appeared to have been making surveys and that these were not confined to the water, but extended to the Isthmus proper. The canal zone authorities have regarded the matter as of sufficient importance to warrant investigation and report to Washington. Meanwhile licenses have been withheld until some general line of policy can be formulated to govern all such cases.

Surface car traffic ceased in the boroughs of Manhattan, the Bronx, Queen's and Richmond at 8 o'clock tonight. At that hour the city was-ithe grip of the most serious transit blockade in its history. Brooklyn was the only borough in the greater city not affected by the strike of motormen and conductors. The menace of a general strike that would include the elevated and subway lines was hourly growing more threatening tonight. Union organizer3 declared employees of the Interborough company were reporting constantly at headquarters to be enrolled. William B.

They were Invited to confer tomorrow afternoon with union officials. It was announced at headquarters that this probably meant the members of the brotherhood would walk out in sympathy with the carmen if it were found necessary and thus tie up the steam and electric roads running into Xew York. Mahon and his associates were much elated over the new development. At 8 o'clock tonight orders had been Issued by. every street railroad in Manhattan, the Bronx and Queens, and on Staten Island (Richmond), to discontinue service.

Timmins, which figured so extensively in the arrival and departure of the submarine Deutschland, is to have its name changed to the Hansa. An application for the change has been filed with the United states Three or four days will be necessary before the change takes effect. The Hansa is scheduled to figure in further submarine enterprises. Capt. Frederick Hinsch. port manager of the Deutsche Ozean Rhederei, operator of the Ieutschland, has indicated that the Deutschland"s trip is but the prelude to a regular service between Baltimore and German ports. The west berth nt the pier where the Deutschland was berthed is to be deepened to a minimum low water depth of feet and warehouse altertwenty-fiv- e ations are to be made. At this pier today a farm wagon unloaded a quantity of provisions, which were taken aboard the Timmins. One of the crew said the tug was "just going after some barges."
