Vkeeriix.Arizq Sept, 30. George Babbitt- Of sFlagstafr pempcratic State Committee to-dtij'. Thomas Drennan Phoenix was made secretary; R.

N. Fredericks of Prescott was elected treasurer. -T Only, one contest' developed- in the meeting. That wad between Mrs. Inez Struckmeyer, wife of F.

E. Struckmeyer. and DTennan, for secretary of the committee. The nenj chairman is a merchant of Flagstaff. He is a member of the state council of defense and an Inside member the Hunt organisation.

Drennan was the personal candidate of Colter, the Democratic nominee for governor, aud Leroy Ladd, Colter's manager. While there was bo opposition in the committee against Babbitt or Drennan, it is the belief of many In the committee that Colter's stand by which he has refused even consider his alleged ineligibility for the governorship was responsible for Drennan'a selection. The anti-Hunt wing of the committee, it Is believed, prefer the officials of the committee, with Colter the candidate, to be strictly Colter in their affiliations. The last busines of thd day was the appointment of a committeeon resolutions, which will report to the committee when it retonveens at 10 o'clock tomorrow! morning. It is very possible thnt this committee may ry to raise the question of Colter's eligibility at tomor row's meeting.

As a consequence a fight may develop between the Hunt and anti- Hunt forces. One of the interesting Incidents was the candidacy of John T. Hughes of Tucson for chairman of the committee. Hughes was the first choice of the Col-ter-Ladd combination and made last-minute efforts to secure representation on the state committee. Having failed In this, he wired a member of the Gila county delgation upbraiding the Pima county members, declaring tney were not representative of the party in Pima county.

Hughes' name was not mentioned in tlss meeting. It seems to be the consensus of opinion among all the Democrats attending the committee, except those in the Hunt-Colter-Ladd combination, that Colter is Ineligible. They are seeking a method to test the question. If this fails, it is openly forecasted that the Republican candidate's chances of election are excellent. They maintain that Colter's at titude is prejudicing the chances of the entire Democratic ticket and add they will not be a party to a deliberate betrayal of the Democratic party.

Tomorrow morning, after the resolutions committee reports, the state committee will elect its executive committee and will hten meet the candidates it noon, as -the Democratic party council. Chihuahua City Fears Attack By Villa Forces (r a. r. Lsisss viss) T1 Paso, Sept. 30.

The American government, In reply to Germany's threat to execute American prisoners of war found in possession of shotguns, today gave notice that if Germany carries out any surh threat suitable reprisals will be taken. After acknowledging receipt of the memorandum submitted through the Swiss legation, communicating the er-man protest, Secretary Lansing said "In reply to the German protest, the government of the United States has to say the provisions of The Hague convention ctied in the protest does not, in its opinion, forbid the use of this kind of weapon. Moreover, in view of the history of the shotgun as of warfare, and in view of the well known effects of its present use and in the light of a comparison of it with other weapons approved in warfare, the shotgun now in use by the American army cannot be the subject of legitimate or reasonable protest.

The protest of the German government, submitted through the Swiss charge ad interim, is as follows: Text of German "The German government protcs' against the use of shotguns the American army, and calls attention tn the fact that, according to the law war, every prisoner of war found to have in his possession such guns or ammunition belonging thereto forfeits his life. This protest is based on. article 22E) of The Hague convention respecting laws and customs of war on land, Reply by cable Is required before October 1, 1318." Th article of The Hague convention on which Germany based its -protest was that forbidding the employment of "arms, projectiles, or materials calculated to cause unnecessary suffering."
