ATHENS, Oct. 29.-After almost
1000 years-when Themistocles
gained the memorable victory over
the Persians-Salamis was again to-
day the scene of a naval battle.
The fight lasted for twenty min
utes and was between the field bat
teries and big warships on one side,
and a mutinous band of naval Of
ficers, who quilted the capital We'd
nesday, with a torpedo boat on the
other
A sharp exchange followed the
first shots. Some of the projectiles
struck the arsenal buildings, but
only one shell hit the torpedo boat,
tn Sphendona, which was immedi-
ately enveloped in a cloud of dense
smoke.
The torpedoers gradually retired
until they gained shelter off the
headland, when the firing ceased.

GREEK REBELS ENGAGE THE
GOVERNMENT IN NAVAL FIGHT

The rebel boats returned the fire of
the warships and field batteries, but
apparently little damage was done
on either side. The rebels were led
by Lieutenant Tibaldos, and it is
reported that they number but 800
men.
Athens is quiet tonight. An offic-
ial statement was issued, stating
that the arsenal, which was in the
hands of the rebels, was recaptured,
and that the mutinous torpedo boats
are expected to surrender.
The military league has issued
proclamation disowning Tibaldoes,
who is in command of the flotilla of
torpedo boats and submarines, and
who demanded the portfolio of the
minister of marine, and ascribes his
pretensions to madness and the in
fluence of outsiders, and threatens
to have him court-martialed for
treason.

HEARING ADJOURNED AGAIN
Railroad Commission Did Not Take up
Hearing of Kenosha Complaint

The hearing on the complaint on the
rates charged by the Kenosha Gas and
Electric Company to consumers in Ke-
nosha which was slated to come up be-
fore the State Railroad Commission at
Madison this morning, has again been
postponed and no definite date has been
set for the hearing. The officials Of the
city had planned to go to Madison for
the hearing, but late Monday afternoon
City Attorney John G. Slater received
a telephone message from Madison stat
ing that the time for the hearing had
been laid over until such time as the
Commission could take up the complaint
which has been made against the Ra-
cine company.
The reason for coupling the Racine
and Kenosha cases is not apparent, but
it is probable that the Commission has
made its investigation of the two cities
at the same time and for this reason
they hope to have one decision cover
both cases.

To Get . Craftsmanship in
Assembly From Bancroft
INGALLS, TO HEAD ELECTIONS

Kenosha county politicians were con-
siderably disturbed this morning when
a list of the chairmen of the committees
in the House was sent to Kenosha and
it failed to show that Assemblyman
Curtiss of this county has been named
to lead single committee. It was
known that the assemblyman has not
been friendly to the candidacy of
Speaker Bancroft, but it was thought
that the fact that he was one Of the
older members of the assembly would he
sufficient for him to be placed at the
head of one of the important commit
tees Assemblyman Curtiss formerly
served as chairman Of the Committee
on Agriculture, but this year that
Craftsmanship is given to AssembIyman
Fisher of Rock County, one of the
strongest of the administration assem-
blymen.

mittee of Judiciary on account of the
fact that this committee will handle
the Municipal Court Bill which is now
being prepared by the attorneys of the
city. j.. W. Ledvina Of Manitowoc, an
attorney, is named as chairman Of this
committee and it is said that Wallace
ingalls, Of Racine, will be one of the
side members of the committee. Mr.
Ingalls, has proved the theory that it
pays to go out after the speakership
as after his fight for that office he has
been named as chairman Of the i'm
portant committee on elections. ingalls,

Especial to The Herald.l J

SAN BERNARDINO, July 19.-Miss
Margaret O'Connor, together with her
sister, Miss Mamie O'Conner, appealed
yesterday to the district attorney to
investigate the loss of a number of
valuable jewels which they insist were
stolen by eXpressmen who, without in
structions. went to their home, uncere-
moniously packing the remainder of
their belongings which were not al
ready in the trunk, during their alb
sence. When they returned, they say,
the jewelry was missing, and they i'm
mediately endeavored to secure the ar
rest of the men. This, however, the
district attorney was not willing to
sanction, and the matter is now hang
ing in the air.
w T. Coombs, the manager of the
company by which are employed the
eXpressmen who are accused by the
women of the theft. denies that his men
are in any way implicated, and states
that they went to the O'Conner home
on instructions to move the effects of
the women to the depot preparatory
to their departure for the north. He
seriously questions whether the jewelry
was taken at all. The O'Conner sisters
state that they had no intention of
leaving for several days, and had sim
ply mentioned the fact to the express
company that they were contemplating
moving, and had given no instructions.
