w DEN. ARABIA, October 25.-De- 6 tails of the fighting in somali-
 land October between the Brit ish expeditionary force and the follow CTS of Mad Mullah, show that a more serious disaster was averted only by the splendid example of few white of- fieers. As 1t was, the British force lost a Maxim gun and seventy men killed while sixty-two of their enemies. dead, were counted close to the firing line.
 Shortly after the British expedition left their zareba (fortified camp) for Mudug, October 6, the NIullah's forces were re- ported about mile ahead and within half an hour, while the British were advanc- ing in single file through a dense jungle, the enemy charged the British right flank.

FURTHER INCREASE
 IN COAL PRODUCTION
ESTIMATED OUTPUT FOR YEsTER-
 nHY. n. WAS fe0o,000 TONS, WHICH
 COMES MOSTLY FROM COLLIER IFS STARTED SINCE THURSDAY.

Wilkesbarre, Pa., October 25.-Today saw further increase of coal produc- tion in the anthracite region. The es- tinated output is 120OOo tons.
 The increase came mostly from col lieries that have been in operation since Thursday and which are in good condi- tlon now. The largest output came from the mines of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western and the Delaware and Hud- son. Reports received show that four teen additional mines were started up to- day

if they built the canal, to dispense with the railroad.
 As to the objection that congress au- thorizes a purchase from the new cum pany only and not from the liquidator, the opinion says:
 Bought From New Company.
 Certainly, in view of the conditions Of the title as hereinbefore explained, the purchase will be from the new company, and the consent of the liquidator will be almost waiver of rights as to property transferred to the new company. But if this were otherwise 1t would be unrea- sonable to treat the act of congress as forbidding purchase from the new com pany in which it would be necessary for the old company or the lfquidator to jofn as vender. This would be to defeat, not to ascertain, the will of congress. What it wants is a good title from the owners of certain specified property, the owner being supposed to be, and being admit tedly in part, the new company; and 1t is entirely justifable to buy from the owner, although the principal ownership should be found not to be in the new company.
 Whether we believe it is in the new company or the old company, so long as it is not out of both. seems to be alto gether immaterial, since both join in the proposed sale.
 The opinion closes as follows:
 For the reasons have given am Of the opinion that the United States would receive a good and valid and unincum- bered title.'
 To the opinion are 25O printed pages to exhibits in support of its statements.
