Latest Summary of War News.
Scant are the actual details of the
recent fighting between the allies and
the Germans, who for over five weeks
have been struggling for supremacy
in Northern France, contained in the
, latest official communication.
“We everywhere have maintained
our position,” sums up the claims of
the French war office. At all points
except one, that in the Woerve dis-
trict, German attacks are said either
to have been repulsed or held. In
the center between the Oise and
Bheims slight advances by the allies
ere chronicled.
From Germany alone came Anything
concerning the surrender of the city
of Antwerp. This was to the effect
that the entire city as well, as all the
forts are now in the bands of the
Germans.
General von Beseler, the German
oommander at Antwerp, issued a proc-
lamation that citizens might return to
their vocations without fear of harm
befalling them and that property
would be respected. The German re-
port said little damage had been done
to any except public buildings in Ant-
werp.
Emperor William’s army which be-
seiged Antwerp now is said to be
moving swiftly toward Ostend with
the object of capturing King Albert,
Queen Elizabeth and the Belgian of-
ficials. It is stated, however, that the
queen already has reached England.
In addition tx> the force of Belgian
and English troops who fled to Dutch
•noil after the fall of Antwerp and
were interned, a newspaper dispatch

ilifdtmad.

jand considerable damage to property
{was done. ,
! Except that a rear guard action
.between the Russians and the Ger-
mans southeast of Wirballen was in
progress, nothing came through con-
;ceming the fighting in the eastern
war theater.
In the south the Montenegrins claim
to have defeated with heavy losses an
Austrian army operating against Sara-
jevo. A traveler from Belgrade re-
ports that city almost destroyed by
the continuous Austrian fire, but tbat
the Servians are holding out gamely.
From the east the Japanese report
that they have silenced Fort litis at
Kian Chau and otherwise are gaining
t ground on the Germans.
The Turks are strongly fortifying
rvarious places in Syria, Palestine
and North Arabia.
A news agency dispatch says chol.

■hfsssfa Famine Becomes Alarming.
London.—A dispatch says the Bel-
|glan minister to the Netherlands an-
nounces that famine prevails in most
pars of Belgum which are occupied by
the Germans. It is most serions at
’Brussels, but the shortage of food is
alao felt at Namur, Luxemburg and,
jHainault. The Belgian legation as-
serts that conditions in Brussels are
alarming, owing to a scarcity of food
< and other supplies. During the seige
,of Antwerp, it is said, no Belgians
/were allowed to leave Brussels unless
they had special passports.
Antwerp Refugees Forced into Holland
London.—Belgian refugees in Hoi.
land number 600,000, according to the
correspondent at The Hague of the
Exchange Telegraph. “The Dutch au-
thorities are greatly embarrassed by
, the Incessant stream of refugees,”
adds the correspondent. “Thousands
are forced to wait on the railroads for
transportation. The Dutch govern-
ment probably will take steps jointly
iwith the German government for the
•peedy return of the refugees. Many
have already returned. /

Naco, Ariz.—Conditions at this point
on the border came near taking on a
grave international aspect Tuesday
when the forces of Gen. Benj. Hill
continued to fire into American ter-
ritory. Colonel Guilfoyle of the 10th
cavalry sent a peremptory order to
Hill that he would be held personally
responsible for any further firing into
the Naco side of the line.
This followed the shooting of Pri-
vate Leroy Bradford, Tenth cavalry,

near the American custom house. He
was shot through the chest and may
die. He is the second soldier and the
third American to be hit by stray
Mexican bullets.
2,500 DEAD AS RESULT OF QUAKE
AWAIN M’ADOO’S APPROVAL
Amounts to Be Prorated Among Banks
Joining in Proposition as Soon
as it is Indorsed.
St. Louis, Mo.—A plan for raising a
cotton loan fund of $150,ut)u,ooo pro-
posed by a conference of St. Louis
bankers has been ratified here by a
delegation of bankers from the cotton-
growing states and now awaits only
the approval of Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo and the federal re-
serve board before it is carried into
effect.
The plan Is approved “in general
essence” by nine southern bankers,
who had been asked by Secretary Mc-
Adoo to attend the conference with
St. Louis bankers, provides for the
raising of the fund by subscriptions
from national and state banks, trust
companies and mercantile and manu-
facturing companies throughout the
country.
“It must be distinctly understood,’’
declares Festus J. Wade, 'chairman of
the SL Louis Clearing House asso-
ciation, and originator of the plan,
“that this is not a movement for the
purchase of cotton. It is simply a
movement to make available a fniid of
6150,000,000 to -loan on cotton at not
to exceed 6c per pound middling ba-
sis. The establishment of this fund
will make the cotton crop a liquid
asset, stabilize its price and bring
about normal business conditions in
all lines of trade.”
To Prorate Amounts.
The amount to be raised by each
financial center will be apportioned
by the committee at a meeting to be
held within the next few days, pro-
viding the general plan meets approv-
al of the secretary of the treasury
and the federal reserve board.

Bids Opened for Two New Battleships
Washington.—The Brooklyn navy
yard, already charged with the con
struction of one of the three battle-
ships authorized' by the last appropri-
ation bill, considerably underbid the
lowest of the private bidders for the
construction of two 32,000-ton battle
ships to be built for the navy this
year, one of its estimates being $6,-
992,850. This was on the basis of a
ship propelled by electrical machinery.
For a ship constructed in accordance
with the department’s plans as to hull
and machinery the estimate was $7,-
155,300.
Forecasts 15,300,000-Bale Crop.
Washington.—Leaders of the move-
ment to dispose of the vast cotton
yield which this year will be left in
American hands because of war in
Europe were given a more definite
idea of the size of the new crop when
the department of agriculture an-
nounced it would amount to approxim-
ately 15,300,000 bales of 500 pounds
ich.
Would Give Belgium $500,000.

Dallas, Texas.—Lake Cliff, compris-
ing 44 acres of land in North Oak
Cliff, has been purchased by the city
park board with the intention of mak-
ing it one of the finest park properties
in Texas. The price is $55,000 cash.

assumed to be 1,500,000 men of the
l<andstrum and volunteers serving in
the interior, while 600,000 fresh re-
cruits are reported to be in training
sufficiently advanced for them to be
ready for service in November. This
would mean a total of 4,260,000 fight-
ing men.
TWO AMERICANS ARE SHOT
Urgent Appeals for Protection Are
Sent to President Wilson and Gov.

$100,000,000 Cotton Pool Plans Made*
Atlanta, Ga.—Plans for the creation
of a fund of at least $100,000,000 to
retire surplus cotton in the south were
approved here at a meeting of the
executive board of the Southern
wholesale grocers’ association, with
prominent business men and hankers
of the various southern states. It is
proposed to form a syndicate of south-
ern wholesale dealers and northern
and southern manufacturers to which
each dealer and manufacturer will
contribute a certain per cent of the
total amount of his annual gross sales
in southern states. This fund is to
be used for making loans to southern
farmers on their cotton, the staple
to be accepted as security.
f Naco, Ariz.—American and Mexican
troops were firing at each other all
day Sunday. The negro troopers of
the Ninth and Tenth cavalry regi-
ments opened fire on a detachment of
Maytorena’s Yaqui Indians and drove
them back across the border when
they attempted a flanking movement
which invaded American soil.
The international friction resulted
from a night attack on the Naco, So-
nora, trenches by Maytorena’s troops.
In the darkness they crossed the line,
probably by mistake the first time.
Those who crossed were promptly
interned by Lieutenant Drake’s com-
mand of the Ninth negro cavalry. This
angered the Maytorena forces and
many shots fell on the American side
during the battle which followed.
Maytorena la Warned.
Sunday morning the same tatics
were undertaken and Maytorena was
again warned and threatened with in-
vasion by the American troops to
clear the atmosphere on the border.
At 11 o’clock the sniping started and
more than 100 bullets fell on the
main street here.
In the handling of the cannon by
Maytorena’s artillery, commanded by
a German gunner, shrapnel burst and
fell on the main streets of the Ari-
zona -border town. One struck the
American custom house, another fell
on a mercantile establishment and
a third struck an occupied residence,
but no one was injured. Three Amer-
icans are reported to have been slight-
ly wounded by the artillery firing,
shrapnel bullets striking them.
Two Americans, Lee Hall and Cor-
poral McAllister, Troop B, Ninth
United States cavalry, were struck by
stray bullets.
Urgent appeals for protection again
were sent to President Wilson and to
Governor Hunt of Arizona.
General Hill, commanding the gar-
rison, lost, 8 killed and 57 w'ounded.
Maytorena’s loss is reported to be
from 20 to 200 killed and many
wounded.
COLQUITT BANK BILL 145,ooo,ooo for cotton
IS KILLED BY HOUSE
VOTE ON ENGROSSMENT STANDS
81 TO 35 AND SENATE WILL NOT
VOTE ON MEASURE.
ANOTHER CALL IS UNLIKELY
The Senate Then Adopted a Reso-
lution for Sine Die Adjournment
Saturday.
Austin, Texas—’’Requiesat in peace”
was written across the governor’s cen-
tral bank bill Thursday night when
the house buried it under an aval-
anche of negative votes more than
two to one. a requiem was later
chanted over it in the senate, though
formal burial did not occur. How-
ever, the pall-bearers were named in
the senate by resolution, which was
ruled out of order.
Adverse action came in the house
after a tedious day of speeches. The
senate likewise heard orations the en-
tire day and one senator continued at
night, though he knew the bill to be
dead.
Death of the bill in the senate rests
on Sec. 34, Art. Ill of the constitution
which reads: “After a bill has been
considered and defeated by either
house of the legislature, no hill con-
taining the same substance shall be
passed into a law during the same
session.”
A joint rule provides for official no-
tice from each house of such defeat,
while the daily journal is another evi-
dence.
Another Session Not Expected.
Attention was turned to the ques-
tion of another session, if the senate
adopted the resolution for sine die ad-
journment Saturday. The resolution
was adopted, though some of the bank
proponents and supporters of other
measures pending opposed. They ap-
eared to want to postpone adjourn-
ment until other measures were dis-
posed of, especially the bill to enable
state banks to join a regional reserve
bank, which had passed the senate,
and some friends trying to pass the
attorney general’s oil mill-gin cor-
poration divorce bill. The senate re-
fused to consider the latter bill by a
vote of 13 to 15 and a two-thirds vote
would have been necessary to get it
up.
Governor Colquitt has several times
written that he intended to keep the
legislature here even into the winter
months to accord relief to the farm-
ers. He was asked his intention and
replied: “I have nothing to say at
this time." However, friends of the
executive who have been supporting
the bank bill averred that since the
vote was so .overwhelming in the
house, they did not expect another
session to follow this, and maintained
that they were safe in the prediction.
Killed Before Engrossment.
The house killed the .bank of Texas
bill, refusing to pass it to engross-
ment by a vote of 35 ayes and 81
noes. Prior to the vote on engross-
ment the house rejected the Humph-
rey amendment providing a $40,000,-
000 bond for each of the directors of
the bank, by a vote of 6 ayes and
113 noes.‘
Under St. Louis Plan, State Will Re-
ceive $3 for Each One Subscribed.
Dallas, Texas.—Forty-five million
dollars will be available to care for
the cotton situation in Texas as a re-
sult of the St. Louis plan, provided
that Texas raises its full quota of
$15,000,000 toward underwriting the
proposition. In other words, Texas
will receive three dollars for every
one it subscribes.
These facts were made known by
R. H. Stewart, president of the Dallas
Clearing House association, following’
a meeting of that body in the Nation-
al Currency association headquarters
at w'hich the plan was unanimously
approved. The plan aims at provid-
ing $150,000,000 to finance the sur-
plus of this year’s cotton crop.
Three million dollars of the amount,
to be raised in Texas has been ap-
portioned to Dallas. Two-thirds of
that amount will be provided by the
banks. The other one-third must be
subscribed by the city’s merchants,
manufacturers and business men. At
the meeting the Dallas banks pledged
their share, conditional upon the cit-
izens of Dallas subscribing theirs.
To the officers of the Dallas Cotton
syndicate has been intrusted the duty
of raising the $1,000,000 allotted to
the citizens. These officers antici-
pate little trouble ip. raising the
amount required. Mr. Stewart said,
after the issuance of a statement that
followed the clearing house meeting
that both the chamber of commerce
and the Merchant’s and Manufactur-
ers’ association would co-operate in
raising the necessary $1,000,000 from
the business men.

Herrera Would Drive Out Americans.
Raid by Zeppelins Expected In London
London.—London is insuring against
a visit from Zeppelins. Just why they
should suddenly decide that there is
danger of bomb dropping is not clear,
but the fact remains that Lloyds have
a number of orders for insurance of
private property. The underwriters
are willing to accept much lower pre-
miums than in the early days of the
war and a large number of private
dwellings are being covered at 3s 6d
per cent, the policy insuring against
war damage of all descriptions.

Herrera, who Is in revolt against
Villa in the north, has issued a proc-
lamation calling on ail patriotic people

triotism of the Mexican people to

the sea, and he will lead the forces
that will do it. Herrera now has 5,000

Zeppelin. Flames were observed 500
| feet high, the result of the igniting of
j the gas of the airship. All officers are
j safe, but their aeroplanes were lost.
Portugal Ready to Assist England.
New York.—Belief in the truth of
the recent dispatches announcing that
Portugal was mobilizing an army to
send to the aid of the allies waj ex-
pressed by General Carlos de Sam-
paio, Portuguese consular general. He
said he believed that Portugal would
willingly fulfill her obligations with
Great Britain and that her action de-
pended almost entirely upon the atti-
tude of that kingdom. By a treaty
with Great Britain Portugal Is obligat-
ed to furnish an expeditionary force
of a stipulated number of men upon
demand. This force is said to be
300,000 men. “If England calls for
aid, my country will certainly re-
spond,” the consul general said.

nounced that after two days of hear-
ing it has reached the conclusion that
