item shows that they possessed an
average of about IS each. but this is
OF little consequence as compared
with the potentialities of the indiyid

NAVAL INSTRUCTORS IN
DOUBT OF LAW

Washington, ID. c., Sept. 1.-THE
naval constructors who are engaged
on the plans for the battleship au-
thoriZed at the last session of con-
gress, are somewhat embarrassed by
the indefinite terms of the law pro-
yiding for that vessel The qualities
mentioned by congress for the new
battleship requires characteristics
which are equal to those Of "any
known vessel of the battleship class
This meant at the time of enactment
the design of battleship which would
be the equal, at least, of the English
Dreadnaught, and it is to this end
that the naval constructors have been
working. They are now asking them
selves whether the introduction of the
new Italian battleship, described as
the superior Of the Dreadnaught, does
not present additional requirements
and exact something of the battleship
designers which they had not counted
on. OF course, 1t is possible TO re-
gard the Dreadnaught as the stand
ard, and to ignore anything which is
merely described as surprising IT. AT
the same time it is realized that the
situation may provoke critics of the
navy and opponents of naval increase
to obstruction of the plans for i'm
proyement hereafter, and some of the
more apprehensive of naval officers
are predicting a lively debate in con-
gress when the plans of the new bat
tleship are received. 1t is realized
that there is some danger in the 100
general requirements of congress re-
specting the next battleship

Springfield, Mass, Sept. 1.-THE

weighing 230 grains. There will be
two types of the same cartridge, one
using 5.02 and the other 7Q2 grains
of smokeless powder. The cartridge
for the automatic pistol will have no
| rim, as the shell is extracted by the
recoil of the weapon. The revolver
cartridge will have rim to take the
ejector of the weapon.
1t is stated that Smith & Wesson
will enter the competition with re-
volver of special design for army use.
All manufacturers can enter both
kinds of weapons, but as the Colt
company of Hartford is the only
manufacturer of automatic pistols in
this country and the weapon adopted
must be made in the United States,
the company has monopoly on that

MORE PARTICULARS OF
NAVAJO INDIAN RAID

Special to The Evening Citizen.
Socorro, n. NJ Sept. 1.-THE Nav
ajo Indians, stationed on their reserva-
tiou, 100 miles west of Magdalena,
have left the reservation and are on
the rampage, raiding cattle ranches III
every direction in that vicinity.
Charles Anderson and Dave Sorrei,
.cattlemen of that district, from whom
the Indians stole five head of horses
pursued the band of NaVajos, which
numbers nearly all of the male resi-
dents of the reservation, but were
fired upon by the Indians and forced
to give up the chase, the Indians pur-
suing them quite distance. until the
cattlemen outdistanced them.
Anderson and Sorrel have organized
posses among the cattlemen of that
neighborhood and are pursuing the
Navajos, grimly determined to put a
stop to the lawlessness of the Iniians,
even TO the extent of bloodshed, and
as a consequence excitement in that
portion of the territory is running
high.
What led to the Nayajos deserting
their reservation and going on the
rampage is not known, but that trOu-
ble has been brewing amongst them
for some time was known to a number
of the ranchers in the neighborhood OF
the Datil mountains, west of which the
reservation is located, but no one an
ticipated the violent outbreak tnat has
just occurred.
AS a result of the raids the Indians
have made, and the wild tales con
cerning their murderous intentions.
the inhabitants of the country in that
part of the territory are thoroughly
terrorized, the women especially be-
ing in a state of terror bordering on
frenzy.
Many of the smaller ranchers have
deserted their homes and with their
families have moved TO the homes OF
some other rancher, where the house
has been barricaded and preparations
made for withstanding an attack by
the redskins
The government at Washington has
been appraised of the facts, and an
appeal has gone in that the govern
ment rush troops from the nearest
fort at once to quell the Indians and
force them 10 return To their reserya-
tiOn,
