The war department today rejected a plan to hold the drawing in the chamber of the House of Representatives.

TREACHERY CHARGE MADE PETRCXJ RAD. July IS. Following the series of clashes between patrolling forces of the government and M-tuct-milists. which occurred last night, the city this morning was quiet under a continuous downpour of rain. Yesterday's list of casualties, so far as ascertained, comprises six persons killed and 23S wounded.

of those killed yesterday were in sight of the Xadezhdenskaia when the Moskow Bolsheviki troops opened lire on unarmed Cossacks passing in the Nevsky Prospect. Their own firing started a panic, in wh-rch five of their number were killed and -0 wounded. The Maximalists have asked for more help from Kronstadt. most of the Kronstadt contingent having returned home last night. It iwas rumored today that a second influx of Kronstadt sailors might be expected before Sight.

M. Tchernoff. minister of agriculture, was arrested at the Duma by Maximalists, who started to take him away in an automobile as a hostage as he was delivering an address from the steps of the building. The minister was roughly handled by the crowd, but as he was being taken from the ground he was recognized by Trotsky, one of the agitator Lenine's lieutenants, who protested and harangued the minister's captors and secured his release. The taking into custody of M.

Tchernoff ia accounted for by yesterday's rumor concerning the arrest of M. Techeidze, president of the central executive committee of the council of workmen's and -soldiers' delegates. For the first time since the revolution the Cossacks appeared and patrolled the streets. Companies here and there carried machine guns straped to their sad-dies. th men leading their horses.

The council of the new body of Soldiers, Workmen and Peasants of all Russia, the Extremists abstaining from participation, passed a resolution today after on all night sesssion rejecting "with indignation all attempts to influence" the attitude of that body.

July IS. Uquor desilers, alarmed at the prospect of the Government under the terms of the food bill, the vast ijuuntitleN of distilled spirits in bond, are withdrawing? whisky froni bonded warehouse at a rate never before equaled. Within the last 10 days more than than gallons have been withdrawn and the ratio of 1,000,000 nal Ions a day bids fair to be eon-tinned. The whisky thus withdrawn Is placed largely, revenue officials believe, in stock in retail e.stabT iishnients. Withdrawals have been almost exclusively from warehouses in Kentucky, Pennsylvania and Maryland and the Cincinnati and I'eoria, districts.

As a consequence of the scare, internal revenue receipts have risen this month to a point higher (ban ever before, the totr.l for the first 17 days being: approxl mntely more than last July. Sixten Senate and Three House Measures Fall Before Executive's Veto Ax. EMINENT DOMAIN FAILS HARRISBl'RG, July 18. Governor Brumbaugh today announced that he had vetoed li) of the legislative bills, lb" Senate and 3 House measures. Chief among the measures is one creating a salary board for the state.

The board would have fixed the salaries of every position in any department on Capitol Hill, except those created by an act of Assembly. Violation of the act would have been punishable by a fine of $5,000, a year's imprisonment, or both. Senate Billl No. 5S9 conferring the right of eminent domain upon electric light, heat and power companies is vetoed for two reasons. One objection arises from the fact that the people owning property are declined rights that by this bill are freely bestowed upon definite corporations.

The governor says: "The second objection is then important. There are two kinds of corporations authorized by law to distribute electricity in Pennsylvania, those using water power to generate electricity and those using steam power. This is an amendment to the steam power act, and would give these corporations the right eminent domain and would deny it to water power corporations. Why this discrimination? Why attempt to give one group who. use steam power a right denied to the other group who water power? Herein lies the vicious quality of this legislation.

The facts were plainly and convincingly given to the proponents of the measure in ample time to make by amendment at least a reasonable attempt to be impartial. This information was nat heeded.

Manton in the Federal district court here today dismissed the habeas corpus proceedings filed in behalf of Clarence F. Birdseye rmd George F. Montgomery to prevent their extradition to Pittsburgh, where they were indicted for conspiracy in connection with the recent sale of the Pittsburgh Life and Trust Company. Judge Manton said that if the defendants so desired ho would grant a stay of proceedings while they appealed to the United States supreme court. Judge Manton announced it was the.

province of the state where the crime was committed to determine what particular acts of the offenders constituted a violation of the criminal law of that state, and for that reason the defendants must be held for extradition.

BILL FOR STATE March Toward Lemberg Halted by Reinforcements From the West Front. VERDUN SPOUTING FIRE LONDON, July 18. The Germans have wrested the initiative from the Russians in Galicia, today's official report from Fetrograd shows.

They have failed to make headway, however. The Russian war office concedes a temporary reverse about 2 0 miles below Kalusz, south of the village of Novica. Here the Teutons, reinforced by men from the west front, in a violent attack drove the Muscovites from a height. General KornilofC's troops rallied and regained the position. The Teuton big guns are furiously active south of Brezany and south of Halicz with a view to retaking these two strategical points.

Berlin today reported increased activity on the Rumanian front. British "tanks" are aiding the Russians in Galicia, co-operating effectively with raiding detachments. REVERSES ADMITTED. Berlin admitted reverses today to the British and French on the west front. To the British the Germans Ist "a narrow sector west of DuVert wood." the statement admits, while the French in a terrifric three-hour attack near Verdun, on the three-mile front between Avoc-ourt wood and the region west of Dead Man hill, penetrated the Teuton lines, retaking ground they had recently lost to the Teutons.

A fresh assault. Berlin asserts, was beaten off with sanguinary losses to the French. Ilicvy artillery lighting on the coast in Flanders was reported in the German statement. It is asserted British reconnoitering detachments were le-pulsed. The Paris communique tells of the repulse of Teuton assaults between Avocourt and the western slopes of Hill in vain efforts to recapture, the ground lost to Petain's troops yesterday.

Lafayette Fliers Go With Pershing PARIS. July 18. Within a fortnight the Lafayette e.scadrille, France's lighting American airmen, will be formally trarsferred to the American army. An American army officer who will hare direct charge of the "eyes" of General Pershing's army made this statement today. Lieutenant William Thaw of Pittsburgh, of the French array, will become Major Thaw.

U. S. and "pursuit squadron commander" of the unit. Half a dozen of the star flyers, holding noncommissioned rank in the French service, will be commissioned as captains and first lieutenants. The unit will go on the American army records as "The Lafayette Squad-ror." since both the French and American army chiefs have a sentimental regard for the name.

According to authoritative information today, all Americans flying fit French aviation schools will be turned over to General Pershing.

All cable riessages leaving this country will now nave to pass the censors.

The navy will leave no loophole possible.

George Michaelis, the new Imperial chancellor of Germany, tomorrow afternoon. He summoned the session today for a "communication from the government." What that communication will be no one among the German political leaders knows. Few care. They have a communication of- their own to make with an ultimatum appended to it. The chancellor's reply to that ultimatum will be the real news, the biggest "communication" of the day.

There will be no escape from answering, no chance for "evasion. In its sum and substance this is the question: "Are you for or against peace without annexations and indemnities?" And the challenge will be virtually: "Answer 'yes- or ALL DEPENDS ON REPLY. Upon the answer will nip nd the outcome of the whole pohtkal upheaval within the Teuton empire. Incidentally it will sigmf whether Dr. George Michaelis, the "mm "vonless" chancellor, will have a chance tu steer the German of statQ, manned by a loyal crew solidly behind him, out of the vortex of war into the port of pea or whether mutiny will di him leu into Jhe obscurity of his fnancial under secretaryship before he even taken hold of the wheel.

For this is the defiant message between the lines of every sciap of from the Teuton capital: That the tri-party bloc Reichstag that was powerful enough to topple a Uethmann-Hollwegf. steer una for eight years, backed by every jiwuable confidence and support, including that of the kaiser, who dismissed 1 im "with a heavy heart" that this sjme bloc will brush a Dr. George Mici.aelis aside like a puppet of tin if he dar.s defy it. DAYS 01" DICTATOR OVER. "The days of dictatorial chancellors are over," every dispat 'li from Berlin tells.

Those who know conuitions there say the Reichstag has the whip hand and proposes to use it an keep it." There were fantastic rv ports today of a "dictator." General LudendorfT, Yen Hindenburg's right hint, was pictured as the coming bogy an and the whole empire as doing bidding les lie apply the iron rod. it much as the idea appealed to the imugin tion, cuoi observers who had closely watched the last two weeks' happenings in Berlin could not help but la over the hallucination. There is but one dictator in that capital today and that one has tnly he- gun to dictate and us strength growing with every hour. That is oe formed in the Reichstag by Center, the Peoples party and the is the the So- cialists, augmented constantly by newcomers from the other parties. Dr.

Michaelis was mentioned in the speculatory dispatches as the "stopgap." But the gap that the political (Continucd on Page Seven. Col. Three) Papers Found in Raid Convicted Berkman! NEW YORK, July lc. It became known today that the evidence irpon which Alexander Berkmm anarchist, was recently indicted in San Francisco for murder in connection with the preparedness parade bomb pU in that city was supplied by the Federal district attorney's office here after a raid upon the offices of 'The Blast" and "Mother Earth" in connection with the anti-conscription activities of Berkman and Emma Goldman. According to Assistant District Attorney Harold Content some of the papers found disclosed connection with the San Fran tragedy.

Pickpockets Reap Big Harvest Here Pickpockets during the last 10 days have made several good "touches" in downtown department stores and in street cars, the police say. Yesterday-Frank Ranczak of 72 Foreland street reported that he was robbed of a wallet containing in a Troy Hill street car July 12. Ranczak, until yesterday, had private detectives working on the case. Two weeks ago a man whose name the police refuse to divulge was robbed of J1.5X by pickpocket3 in a downtown street. Action on Amendments Begins and Debate Proceeds Under 10-Minute Talk Limit.

ONE CHANGE IS ADOPTED WASHINGTON, July 18. Senate consideration of the administration food control bill, begun a month ago today, is approaching an end. Voting upon amendments began to day, and tomorrow discussion will proceed under a 10-minute limit toward the final vote to be taken Saturday. Only one amendment was disposed of today, but that, relating to sales by Government agents of their own products to the Government, has been before th'e Senate almost exclu sively for a week. A re-draft of the provision offered by Senator Pomerene was adopted tentatively, but probably finally, by a vote of 54 to 17.

It is designed to meet, especially, the supply-purchasing situation of the defense council and its advisory bodies. Tomorrow, under the limited debate rule, the leaders expect to proceed rapidly with the many amendments, including those drafted in bi-partisan conferences, jn an effort to compromise the situation over the legislation. Probably the first to be taken up will be the compromise proposal to create a board of food administration of three salaried members in lieu of the original plan for one administrator. EFFECT IN DISPUTE. The actual effect of the Pomerene amendment, written into the bill today, was disputed by senators tonight.

Those who had advocated it in h'eu of the original committee amendment declared it was entirely satisfactory to the administration and council members. Equal satisfaction was expressed those advocating more drastic action, including Senator Reed, one of the most persistent ritics of the cour.i i'. During the discussion. Senator Pomerene declared no serious criticism could be lodged against the council's advisory commission and tiat its usefulness should not be crippled by passage of the committee amendment, which its opponents predicted might prevent the prominent men who have been serving as commissioners without pay from continuing in their positions. Senator Reed and others insisted that all that was sought was to prevent contracts for (Continued on Page Two, Col.

One.) Exporting of Food In Ptedfleld's Hands WASHINGTON. July Edward E. Pratt, who resigned last night as chief of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce at the request of Secretary Redfield, was temporarily succeeded today by Burwell S. Cutler, first assistant chief. Neither Mr.

Redfield nor Dr. Pratt would discuss the causes of the resignation. It has been known that differences existed. Things came to a head, it is understood, over Dr. Pratt's administration of the export control clause of the espionage act.

Mr. Red-field, it is said, thought Dr. Pratt" assumed too much authority. Dr. Pratt's dismissal is taken to mean that Mr.

Redfield will take direct charge of administering the export control. Police Suppress Irish Newspaper DUBLIN. July IS. The newspaper "Kilkenny People" was seized and suppressed today by the police and military authorities. This paper is an important local weekly conducted by Edward T.

Keane, politician since the days of Parneil, and now chairman of the Local Sinn einers. The paper had frequent difficulties with the censorship, but it is felt here that its seizure on the eve of the parliamentary election to replace Patrick O'Brien, Nationalist, who died July 12, will assist the Sinn Feiners and prejudice any Constitutional candidate. The Sinn Feiners will hold a meeting under Mr. Keane's chairmanship to select a candidate, who probably will be Keane. 26 British Ships Are Sunk in Week LONDON, July IS.

Fourteen British snips of more than 1,600 tons were sunk by submarine or mines in the last week, according to the official remort tonight.

The Goethals-Denman shipbuilding controversy advanced one step toward a solution today, but no definite action was taken toward putting into effect the work of supplying ships with which to meet the vital needs of the nation and our allies.

At the conclusion of a lengthy conference between George W. Goe- li's, as manager of the Emcrg-ency Fleet Corporation, n.id Chairm William Denman and the members the board, it was an-louneed that tio policy had been agreed upon find that at tho request of Cen-iral Goethals the ronferoncp would be tfnntinued tomorrow morning. Three lines of development in the controversy were open tonight: At the meeting tomorrow General Goethals and the shipping board will adjust their differences and the shipping program will proceed. General Goethals will refuse to recede from his position of dictating How tho building of ships shall be done and how fhips on the stocks shall be commandeered: the conference will come to a deadlock and General Goethals will be requested to resign by the shipping- board, or Chairman Penman will tender his resignation. In the event of failure to arrive at an understanding- at the conference.

President "Wilson, acting in compliance with resolution introduced in the Senate today by Senator Reed Smoot of Utah, will formally request a report from the shipping board as to the progress that has been made and when he is formally notified that none has been made, will tnke personal charge of the controversy and if unable to reconcile the views of General Goethals and Mr. Penman, will request the resignations of one or both men. It became increasingly evident today that official Washington has lost patience with the procrastinating methods of General Goethals and Mr. Penmpn. Immediate action will be demanded or else the resignations of the men who are delaying the Government's program will be asked.

ARMY AND NAVY AROUSED. That the row Is not only between General Goethals and his board of directors bui.me apparent today when it was learned that both the war and navy departments are severely criticizing the shipping board for a number of delays. The navy department is of the opinion that the German vessels taken over in New York should have been made ready for sea in three weeks. They will not be ready before September 1. The reason for this delay was stated by naval officers to be that the shipping board had confined all the repair work on these German vessels to New York harbor, where facilities are normally not up to those of other nearby 'Continued on Page Tiro, Col.

Either presidential intercession in the cases of the 16 suffragists sent to the District of Columbia workhouse yesterday to servt 60 days for picketing at the White House, or appeal of their cases to a higher court appeared certain tonight. After a long conference with President Wilson, J. A. Hopkins, former Democratic national committeeman from New Jersey and husband of one of the prisoners, declared the President had been "deeply shocked at the whole affair and on learning the circumstances had only one thought, nan.ely, to straighten out the matter." The advisability of urging the Susan B. Anthony suffrage amendment as an emergency war measure was discussed by the President, according to Mr.

Hopkins, who said he promised to supply the White House with a canvass of Congress to show whether the measure could be passed. He also declared the suggestion of a presidential pardon appealed to Mr. Wilson, but as that would not stop picketing, it is not regarded as likely. MAL0NE PLANS APPEAL. While Mr.

Hopkins was conferring with the President, Dudley Field Ma-lone, collector of customs at New York, was planning an appeal in behalf of the women. He announced that he had retained George Gordon Battle, a New York attorney, and another attorney whose name he did not mention, to aid him.
