President Wilson sent to the members of the national couneU assembly at Moscow Monday assurance that this government Is willing to oxtend "every material and moral assistance" to the government of Russia. No official comment was made by government officials on Premier Kerensky'a speech before the members of the council Sunday, bat It was made clear that tho sentiments expressed by the Russian loader were heartily approved her. -The tneoeage cabled by President Wilson follows: "I take tho liberty to send to the members of tho great council now meeting in Moscow the cordial greetings of their friends, the people of the United Statos; to express their confidence in the ultimate triumph of Ideals of democracy and self government against all enemies within and without, and to give their renewed assurance of every material and moral assistance they can extend to tho government of Russia In the promotion of tho common cause in which tho two nations are unselfishly united."

Premier Kerensky, who came to Moscow Saturday to attend tho national conference which Is now being held for consideration of the military and political problems which confront tho country, reviewed troops at the Hippodrome Sunday.

General Korniloff, the commander In chief, arrived from Petrograd Sunday and was greeted by great crowds. The day was devoted to conference of the different groups of delegates. The maximalists reached the conclusion that the conference does not represent the will of the nation and is of an antirevolutlon-ary character. They decided to demand from the assembly a dictatorship of the proletariat by the handing over of all power to the council of worklngmen's and soldiers' delegates and voted to leave the hall if the majority should be unwilling to share thel viewpoint. The internationalists Insisted on abolition of the death penalty and renunciation by the government of its purpose to put down by force the separatist movements in Finland and I'krajne.

The popular socialists urge maintenance of the death penalty.

The destruction of a German submarine with all hands by a British submarine in the Atlantic ocsan was described here Monday by the captain of a British steamer which was torpedoed by the enemy submersible.

The trader, which was attacked on a vovage from this country to a British -sort, returned here after being repaired abroad. According to the captain of the trader the commander of the Oerman submarine attacked the British merchantman by firing his deck guns, when the torpedo which struck her failed to send her to the bottom. The traders crew, who had taken to the open boats, witnessed the arrival of tho British submarine and it attack on the Oerman XT-boat, which was broken in two and sunk by a torpedo from the British undersea craft.

FERGUSON CHANGED HIS MIND ABOUT SOME-STATE LAWS (Continued from Pago One,) during tho trial of James E. Ferguson, will represent the board of managers Vf the house in the prosecution of Mr.

Ferguson before the senate. When 'the vote was taken It was announced at to 24, Just five, members short of a quorum, but other members came In and the necessary 95 votes were announced as having been cast. Immediately afterward It developed that some of the members had been Issued passes by speaker to absent themselves from the house, and though the house remained in session under call until nearly 6 o'clock no quorum was recorded as being present. It was the, purpose of the friends of the university, or rather the members opposed to James E. Ferguson, to take up the university appropriation I bill as it passed the senate.

This bill Is almost identical with the bill which mas vetoed by Governor Ferguson during the first called session. They wanted the measure passed so that it could be signed by Governor Hobby before the close of the present special session. Possibly Tuesday morning the house will secure a quorum, as there are as many or more than two-thirds of the membership of the house In Austin Monday night. Tuesday morning the senate will have another executive session for the purpose of considering the recess appointees of Governor Ferguson. It Is likely that the appointees other than university regents will be confirmed.

The committee which prepared the rules has completed' them and which rules are along the same lines as the MoGaughey and Sulzer impeachment proceedings.

It is understood the record In the house impeachment proceedings will be used to a great extent. ft is understood that the board of man agers from the house will engage ueneral M. K. Crane of Dallas to conduct the Drosecutlon. the latter having had charge of the case In the house.

Governor Fer guson. It Is learned, may ask for time in which to prepare his answer to the charges, which, if granted, would delay the hearing. Pro Wan Hobby To Submit Question. (Auoaottd Prtst Rtport.) AUSTTN, Texas, August 27. Certain prohibition members of the house are circulating a petition among members' to re quest Governor Hobby to submit at the ireseni special session oi ine legislature ho subject of prohibition for Texas.

While a proposed constitutional submission amendment can not be considered at a special session of the legislature, there Is no reason why a statute not be passeu at a special session ahibltlng tne sale of liquor In Texas, is Question, however, Is wnether or not the acting governor will grant the re quest. It requires only a majority vote of the lawmakers to pass statutory pro hibltlon In this BUte. Lemons Beautify!

WANT NEGROES ENT FROM WACO.

Congressman Connally of the Waco dia-" trtct called at the war department Saturday and asked that the battalion of negro troops, a part of the Twenty-fourth regiment, be removed from Waco before there Is an outbreak in that city. He was informed by Becretary Baker that thejse soldiers would be moved within a very few days and that they will De sent to Some point on the border to do patrol nty.

Williams and District Attorney Crooker. In which they argued for a civil trial, and accompanied this with a letter in which he said it was his belief that the telegram explained the views of a ma-, Jority of the 'people of Houston and Har-, rls county. In matters of this kind it has si never been the custom of President Wilson to make any puWicsnnoncement i until after a conference -witTr-Hle leglala-. trve head of the department involved. and the White House will have nothing to say until after a conference is had With Secretary Baker.

BARRETT READY TO CARRY CASE TO CONGRESS. Congressman Garrett has an appoint- i- aaent for Tuesday with the judge advo-. eate general and with Secretary Baker. -At these conferences Congressman Gar- rett will urge that the trial of these nesrro soldiers, whether military or civil, bo held in Houaton. in order that all the tacts which led up to the outbreak may easily ascertained He will vigor-.

It is his nersunal opinion that I War department is thoroughly aroused and is not in the least oisposed to deal iantently with the offenders. A majority of the Texas repreeenta-5 nves who have ventured an opinion are of the belief that the military law has 1 precedence over the civil law In this In-3 stance.

(Asocvitti Prtst Rrtert.) ASH1NGTON.

August 7. Tension in the senate's struggle over the war tax Mil mounted Monday so that leaders began paving the way for applying tho cloture rule to curtail discussion and negotiations were si ufoot with the iiope c' compromising the varying opinions over higher taxation of war profits and incomes. The senste spent the day in talk with out action on pending posiage sections oi the bill, while leaders earnestly confered toward compromising disputes and hasten' mg the measures passage ney nopei to dispose of the one-cent letter postage increase and the publishers tsx provisions Tuesday, but there was no certainty mat it could lx' acconi pllshed and the ir profits section reached Wednesday, Petitions for ctoiiHV. which Monday night had more than SO senators' signa tures, onlv a lew less man me necessary two-thirds to put cloture into effect, were circulated after Senator Simmons In charge of the bill sought and failed to secure unanimous consent to fix a date for nnal voting on either the entire btl. or the war profits set tion.

Several senators nowever, signed im the understanding that the rltiture rule would not be sought unless a IlUDUSter Oi-veloped. Among those signing were many favor ing drastic Increase In war profits and income tax rates. Presentation of the pe tition is not planned by Senator Simmons for several days or until after the war profits debate begins. In Monday's debate on the postage taxs. Senators Hardwick.

Pomerene and McKellar left the attack on the bill's provisions, advocating higher postal rates tor newspapers and magazines. Senators Harding, smoot. Mccumner and others opposed higher postage rates. while Senators Borah. Townaena ana others urged entire elimination of postage axes from the bil.

Senator Weeks of Massachusetts exuects to speak Tuesday for his plan to eliminste the publishers' lostage and income tax provisions. WOULD TAX WAR PROFITS 80 PER CENT. Advocates of higher taxation made, further definite moves just before the sen ate adjourned at night. Senator Johnson of California Intro duced hi. amendment designed to levy 80 per i ent on war profits and Senator La-Kollette ottered substitute for the incomi war section and proposing to obtain 000 irom incomes instead of the provided in the bill.

senator Johnson proposed to levey ii per cent idditional on war profits, estimating the present Itwy at 7 per cent. While debate proceeded on the postal tax section private conferences were held ay leaders opposing drastic; war profit taxes The majority of the finance committee held two meetings and considered abandoning the pre-war profits system of the bill and substituting a new basis. 'We hope to tarke action which will unite ail the real friends of the bill." said Senator Simmons later. Because of, criticism the majority committeemen are considering substitution of the house excess profits scheme of cal- cnlating war profits based upon capital ization instead ol net profits and allowing an exemption of per cent plus 00u. A definite decision, however, has not been reached.

Such a change would secure more revenue, it been argued, and remove many alleged injustices of the pre-war calculation system of the bill. EXPORTATIONS TO EUROPEAN NATIONS WILL BE LICENSED (Continued from Pago One.) ditions to the list of -commodities controlled by the proclamation of July 9. 1917. "It is obvious that a closer supervision and control of exports Is necessary with respect to the European neutrals within the sphere of hostilities that is required for those countries further removed. "The establishment of those distinctions will simplify the administrative processes snd enable us to continue our policy of minimizing the interruption of trade." WILL SEE NO SUPPLIES GO TO GERMANY.

The proclamation makes it clear that the United States Is prepared to go to almost any limit to prevent goods from going to Germany. Neutrals already have been Informed both in notes and in conversations with Jtheir representatives in Washington that the United States will see to it that no American goods may be used even to replace Indirectly goods shipped from neutral countries to Germany. Some administration officials even favor stopping food shipments to neutrals where the food is used to feed workmen engeged In manufacturing war materials for German use. Assumption by the United States of the burden of maintaining the blockade of Germany insofar as it applies to shipment of American goods, gives this nation an added responsibility of what the Brit ish sought to be relieved ever since the United States entered the war. The duty of preventing goods shipped from neutrals other tuan t-uropean from reaching Germany will continue to be Great Britain's since the United States has declared no formal blockade against Germany or her alUcs.
