Shape of Score of Men.
i
El Paso, Texas.—American soldiers,
reinforced by a small detachment of
Carrancistas, engaged. Mexican ban-
dits who had crossed the Rio Grande
into the United States, about- five
;miles below Fort Hancock, Texas, 55
miles east of here, early Monday. Two
Americans were killed and one was
iwounded, while three of the outlaws
were killed and two escaped across
the river into Mexico and were pur-
sued by Mexican troops and a detach-
ment of the Carranza customs guard.
I Upon receiving reports from Robert
jWood, a United States customs in-
spector, that the bandits who had
committed numerous depredations on
the Mexican side of the frontier re-
cently, had crossed the border, six
men of Troop F, Eighth United States
cavalry, and a hospital corps orderly
tinder Sergeant Thompson, with Wood
and Customs Inspector Bean, rode
to the abandoned adobe hut where
the Mexicans were said to be in hid-
ing.
Carrancistas Cross River.
- After being surrounded, the ban-
dits opened from the building and
Adjoining outhouses, killing Wood,
Private John Twoney and wounding
Sergeant Louis Thompson in the
ahoulder. Bean, fearing that the
Mexicans would escape the small Am-
erican detachment, called upon the
ICarrancista commander on the op-
posite side of the river. He re-
sponded with a score of soldiers,
crossing the river into the United
States to cut off the outlaw’s retreat,
the incident marking the first time
Uarrancista soldiers have co-operated
Tvith Americans in pursuit of ban
dits on American soil.
STATE TAX RATE IS 45 CENTS.
Ad Valorem Rate Ten Cents Less
Than 1916—Tax Board Estimates
$12,393,408 Should Be Produced.
Austin, Texas.—Ad valorem tax
rate 20c, school tax rate 20c, pension
tax^rate, 5c; total 45c.
The State Automatic Tax board has
fixed the t&x rates for the ensuing
year at the foregoing amounts. The
ad valorem tax is ten cents less than
a year ago, while that for schools
and pensions remain the same. The
total assessed valuation is estimated
at $2,754,313,023, based on reports
from 288 counties.
A total state tax rate of 45c should
produce $12,393,408 as the aggregate
state taxes, divided as follows: Ad
valorem purposes $5,508,626* schools
the same and pensions $1,377,156.
Those amounts are not net, as it
costs about 20 per cent to assess
and collect the taxes in this state,
making a deduction of approximately
$2,478,881. The reduction of ten
cents in aggregate state taxes re-
duces the total amount collected from
the taxpayers under last year of
about $2,868,411.

FIGHTING IS RENEWED
ALONG SOMME FRONT
Heavy Rains Quench Forest Fires.
Toronto.—A message received by
the department of mines and forests
-here states that the fires in northern
Ontario have been entirely quenched
by heavy rains.
Englehart, Ont.—Definite figures as
to the loss of life in northern On-
tario through the wiping out of half
a dozen towns by bush fires were
still lacking. Figures on hand indi-
cate that at least 200 persons are
dead.
Navy Station Breaks Record.
Dallas, Texas.—For the month end-
ing July 31 the local United States
navy recruiting station broke all pre-
vious records for enlistments for one
month, swearing in 118 men. The
former record of 116 enlistments was
set during the month of August, 1915.
This is the first month that Lieuten-
ant D. E. Kemp has had charge of
the Dallas station.
Dallas School Principal Train Victim.
Vernon, Texas.—Pror. B. W. Hudg-
ins, principal of the John Henry
Brown public school of Dalla*,, was
instantly killed when the automobile
in which he was riding was hit by
a freight train on the Fort Worth &
Denver railway at a crossing two
miles northwest of Vernon. Mr. Hudg-
ins was en route to Clarendon, Ama‘
rillo and Snyder with his wife and
four children. Mrs. Hudgins and the
children escaped injury.
Dutch Mail Steamer Struck by Mine.
London.—The Dutch mail steam-
ship Koenigen Wilhelmina has struck
a mine near the North Hinter light-
ship, says a dispatch from The
Hague. The passengers left the ves-
sel in the lifeboats and made for the
lightship. The Koenigen Wilhelmina
•was a steel paddle boat and plied
•between Flushing and Sheemess. The
vessel was of 1,964 tons gross, 320
feet long, 35 feet beam and 16 feet
deep. She was built at Glasgow in
*895.
BRITISH CAPTURE IMPORTANT
TRENCH, BUT ARE SHELLED
OUT BY GERMANS
London—Hard fighting has com-
menced again between the British
and the Germans in the Somme re-
gion of France near Pozieres, around
Longeval and in the Delville wood.
The British in the fighting Wed-
nesday night captured an important
German trench north of the line run-
ning from Pozieres to Bazentin le
Petit, but were shelled out of it
Thursday morning by an enfilading
fire from German artillery. Another
attack, however, gave the British a
foothold in the southern end of the
trench. South, of the Somme the
French made further progress
against the Teutons east of Estrees.
In Champagne the Germans raided
French first trenches near Prosnes,
but later were drivenyoutvin a coun-
ter-attack. Bombardments were -in
progress on various ' sectors around
Verdun.
Russians Advance
Further advances for the Russian
troops in Slonevka river region on
the eastern front are chronicled by
Eetrograd. Vienna admits the falling
back of the Austrians south of Les-
vniow, near Brody, in the face of
superior forces of the Russians, and
that northeast of Brody the Russians
gained insignificant advantages in
which the attackers suffered extra-
ordinary losses. In the north, con-
siderable fighting continued between
the Germans and Russians, but no
important changes is territory re-
sulted.
In the Caucasus region the Rus-
sians are reported from Petrograd to
be still on the heels of the Turks
retreating from Erzingan.
Bombardments by the Austrians in
the Austro-Ital'ian theatre are re-
ported by Rome.
Three Shells a Minute to Yard
The British put on Delville wood
the heaviest concentration of shell-
fire in a given area ever' directed
against field fortifications. Even the
gunners were amazed when they
computed its volume per minute in
preparing the way for the infantry.
Counting the front a thousand yards,
there must have been three .shells
a minute falling on every yard.
RDSSCAPTURE BRODY
AND 9,000 PRISONERS
WAY IS OPENED FOR ATTACK
ON LEMBERG, CAPITAL OF
GALICIA.
BRITISH TAKE MORE GROUND
Delville Wood and Longueval Occu-
pied—Italians Make Gains in
the Dolomite Region.
Russians Capture 20,000 Men.
Armies of the entente allies con-
tinue to hammer the lines of the
central powers on all European fields.
On the western front the British and
French are holding back German
forces and British troops have made
additional progress on the hard-
fought Somme battle ground.
Russian forces on the eastern
front continue their successful drives
against the Austro-German lines. Pet-
rograd claims the capture of more
than 20,000 Austro-Germans in the
recent fighting in the northern Gali-
cia and Volhynia. According to es-
timates of Russian army officials, the
number of prisoners taken in the first
half of the present campaign by the
Russians totals 350,000. The same
authorities estimate the Austro-Ger-
man losses, including killed and
wounded, at 800,000.
Petrograd.—The Russians have oc-
cupied the important railroad junc-
tion of Brody, 58 miles northeast of
Lemberg in Galicia, broken through
the entire first line of the Teutonic
allies west of Lutsk and driven the
Austro-German forces from the line
of the rivers Slonevka and Boldurov-
ka, Southern Volhynia, according, to
the official communication issued by
the war office Friday night. Heav}
casualties were inflicted on the Aus-
tro-Germans, more than 9,000 men be-
ing taken prisoners and a large num-
ber of guns were captured.
The communication says: “West
of Lutsk (Volhynia) we took the of-
fensive and broke through the whole
first line of the enemy, inflicting
severe losses. Our troops now are
advancing and the cavalry is pursu-
ing the fleeing enemy.
“In this district we captured 46
guns, including six mortars and six
machine guns, and 50 officers, includ-
ing two generals and two command-
ers of regiments, and more than 9,^)0
men.
“Later, at 6:30 clock Friday morn-
ing. Brody captur«d bjy our
troops. The iui^icei1! of ’prisontW and
the amount of bqoty captured is not
yet known.”
The capture of Brody opens a di-
rect road to Lemberg, the Galician
capital. The occupation of the town
also may have the effect of causing
the entire Austrian line southward
toward Tarnapol and Buczacz, which
has been held tenaciously in face of
Russian attacks, to fall hack.
London.—A Turkish army estimat-
ed at 70,000 strong now is concentrat-
ed in the Hungarian plains for the
defense of Hungary, says a dispatch
from Lausanne, Switzerland. The dis-
patch adds that the Austrian em-
peror has gone to Budapest where
intense excitement prevails.
Sinks Ships Because He Has To
London—German submarines have
started a relentless war against tim-
ber-laden vessels in the North sea.
Four ships, all Norwegian, were re-
ported to have been sunk Wednes-
day. The captain and 12 men of one
vere landed at Shields, where they
rave details of the destruction of
iLeir vessel. The German submarine
commander, after examining the ves-
sel’s papers, is quoted 33 saying:
“Well, I suppose I must do it. I
am very sorry, but it is my duty.
I am sick and tired of the whole
business.” The ship was saturated
with paraffin and set on fire.
200 Children Die of Heat
Montreal—The extreme heat of the
/ast week has been responsible for
the dqath in Montreal of more than
250 children. The temperature has
reached 93, the hottest In five years.
In Quebec City 28 children died in
three days owing to the heat.

Washington — President Wilson
summoned to the White House Rep-
resentatives Padgett, Talbott and
Estopinal, the ranking Democratic
members of the house naval com-
mittee, and told them he believed
it vital that the house adopt the na-
val bill as it passed the senate with
the construction program, including
four battle cruisers and four battle-
ships, to be built immediately, and
an increase in the enlisted person-
nel of the navy.
British Take More Ground.
London.—The last German strong-
holds in Longueval have been cap-
tured by the British troops, accord-
ing to the official statement. Hand-
to-hand fighting continued through-
out the day in the vicinity of Poz-
ieres, the statement adds. The whole
of Delville wood was captured also.
More Ground Taken by Italians.
Rome—Additional ground bas been
gained by the Italians in the Dolo-
mites region, the war office announc-
ed. After hard fighting with the Aus-
trian defenders of Monte Colbriccon
the Italians extended their positions
Austrian attacks in force on Italian
positions in various sectors farther
to the west were repulsed.
German Attack in Vosges Fruitless.
Paris.—An attack by the Germans
against French positions south of
Sainte Marie pass in the Vosges re-
sulted in their gaining a lodgment in
the advanced French trenches, says
the official statement. The statement

EXPLOSION CAUSES
$25,000,000 LOSS
AMMUNITION ON ISLAND IN NEW
YORK BAY AWAITED SHIP-
MENT TO ENTENTE ALLIES. '
New York.—Property loss estimat-
ed at $25,000,000 was caused early
Sunday by a series'of terrific explo-
sions of ammunition awaiting ship-
ment to the entente allies and stored
on Black Tom island, a small strip
of land jutting into New York bay
off Jersey City. The loss of life was
problematical. It will not be deter-
mined definitely until there has been
opportunity to check up the workmen
employed on the island and on boats
moored near by.
Two are known to be dead and at
least two more are missing. Scores
of persons were injured, some of
them probably fatally.
The detonations, which were -felt
in) five states, began with a continu-
ous rapid fire of small shells, tllen
the blowing up of great quantifies
of dynamite, trinitrotoluene and oth-
er high explosives, followed by the
bursting of shrapnel shells, which
showered the surrounding country
and waters for miles around.
Streets Ljttered.
Fire that started soon after the
first great crash destroyed 13 of the
huge warehouses of the National
Storage company on the island, in
which were stored merchandise val-
ued between $12,000,000 and $15,000,-
000. Miles of streets in Manhattan
were strewn with broken glass and
shattered signs.
The cause of the disaster has not
been determined. Officials of the Na^
tional Storage company and the Le-
high Valley railway, which also suf-
fered heavily through loss of proper*
ty, declared that reports to them
showed a fire started on a barge be-
longing to an independent towing
company that bad been moored along
side a dock used by the railroad com-
pany to transfer ammunition ship-
ments from trains to vessels in the
harbor.
The barge, it was said, was there
without authority of the railroad or
the storage company.

More Room for Bodies. ^
Chicago.—Promise of relief from
the torrid weather that has prevailed
for a week or more came Sunday
night at the end of a day during
which the thermometer reached a
point within a fraction of a degree
of the highest ever recorded in the
Chicago forecast district. As a result
of the protracted heat culminating in
a maximum of 102 degrees the hu-
man death rate reached* a point
where county morgue officials said
there was no more room in the in-
stitution for bodies, prostrations in-
creased greatly, riotous scenes at the
beaches among the thousands seek-
ing relief in the lake made necessary
the service of extra police, while the

from the heat.
Deaths attributed to the heat, dur-
ing the four days’ hot wave up, to
midnight Sunday totaled 264. Ap-
