Zenpelin Airship Wrecked.

Goeppingen, June 2.-After cover
ing distance of about $50 miles in 81
hours, Count Zeppelin's airship, on its
return trip from Bitterfeld to Fried
richshafen, came to grief in an open
field near here today. In maneuvering
for LANDING the airship came into
contact with tree.
The damage to the airship is much
more serious than was at first believed.
A cursory examination directly after
the accident showed that the envelope
had been torn and it was thought that
the injury could be repaired and that
the vessel would proceed tonight. A
more careful examination, however,
disclosed that the prov was broken
and that considerable time must elapse
before the journey can be resumed.

PUT LINCOLN ABOVE ALL.
Hollingsworth Protests Against Honor
Paid Jeff Davis.

Washington, June Memorial Day
was generally observed here yester-
day. All the government departments
and practically all the business houses
were closed in order that tribute might
be paid the nations dead. The prin-
cipal exercises were at Arlington, un-
der the auspices of the G. A. r. Every
grave was marked with an American
fleg, while flowers were strewn every
where. Appropriate exercises also
were conducted at the Soldiers Home
National cemetery and other burial
places in the city.
At the Soldiers Home Represent
ative Hollingsworth, of Ohio, was one
of the speakers. He referred to the
recent discussion in the house when he
protested against placing the head of
Jefferson Davis on the silver service of
the battleship Mississippi, declaring
that cit would be dark day indeed
for the republic when the name OF
Abraham Lincoln ceases to be revered
above all other figures of the civil war
period, or when it shall be replaced by
that of Jefferson Davis in the hearts
and affections Of the American people.
The thought of it is as shocking as the
first thrill of horror that followed the
firing on Sumpter."

Leading Officers Convinced by
Zeppelin'S Achievement.
THREE DEPOTS ON EAST COAST
General Allen, Chief of Signal Corps,
to Submit Plans to Congress
Would Patrol Coasts.

Washington, June 3.-Under the in
struction of Brigadier-General Allen,
chief of the signal corps of the army,
plans have been prepared, it was an
nounced tonight. showing what is neces-
sary for the aerial defense of the
United States. If congress would ap-
propriate the money he would begin at
three points along the Atlantic coast
Washington, New York and Philadel-
phia-where dirigible balloons and aer-
oplanes would be stationed. At each
point one large balloon and an aeroplane
would be placed. This would require
more than $50O,000. General Allen
has had prepared map showing points
along the other borders of the country
and in the interior where he believes
there should be aerial defense stations.
To carry out the entire scheme would
require about $5,000,000 The war
department is convinced, in the light
of achievements of the Zeppelin balloon,
that aerial navigation has arrived.
In anticipation of favorable action
by congress, the signal corps has been
instructed to prepare the plans re-
ferred to.
cit is intended" said an army officer
tonight, "that the coast dirigible shall
not pass off its own station except in
cases of extremity and that the sailing
distance shall be 1875 miles south and
1875 miles north from its depot. In
this manner the entire coast from Maine
to Florida will be patrolled and in case
of war it will be virtually impossible
for hostile fleet to approach the coast
of the United States without being
discovered long before the sentinels or
land could see the vessels. Once dis
covered, the fleets movements could
be watched with safety and with the
use of wireless its maneuvers could bt
sent the length of the coast.
"The plans will include an elaborate
system of vertical searchlights, by
which the airships will be guided dur
ing the night flights. These light
will mark the various batteries ant
the balloon depots and they also will b
used in signaling the swiftly flyini
ships overhead. Most of the signaling
however, probably will be done through
the medium of the wireless"

STRIKERS GAIN GROUND.
Capture Light Plant and Place City
in Darkness.


Sisson, CAL, June 3.-While state
troops are on the way to McCloud to
suppress lawlessness, the. power house
and lighting plant at that place were
captured by the striking shingle mill
hands today, and the town is in dark
ness tonight. Between three and four
hundred armed strikers marched on the
plant in body late tonight, drove off
the 25 armed deputy sheriffs on guard,
and took possession, compelling the
men at work to quit. The deputies re-
ceived warning of the intention of the
strikers to capture the plant, but they
deemed it useless to attempt resistance
and left when ordered to do 80. Not a
shot was fred and no one was hurt.
Six hundred strikers formed in line
and paraded the streets this afternoon.
There was no disorder, but, with BAN
ners flying, the men tremped by the
company's store and Offices as though
on review.
Sheriff Howard admitted this after
noon that he needed help to handle the
situation. In reply to the sharp criti-
cism of Governor Gillett, who declared
that the peace officer should have ar
rested the ringleader, he said that to
have done so would have precipitated a
riot he could not hope to quell and
which must have resulted in the loss OF
human life.

HONOR TO REGULARS
President Taft Speaks on Noted
Field Of Gettysburg.
OPPOSED TO REDUCTION In ARMY
Expects Congress-, With Aid of Hot
Weather, to Adjourn by June
2O-Monument Unveiled.

Gettysburg, Pa, June Yesterday
was the day of tardy honor to the "reg-
ular" at Gettysburg. An imposing
shaft of granite, erected by congress
to the memory of those of the regular
army who fell in the three days. battle,
was unveiled by the presidents daugh-
ter, Miss Helen H. Taft, while the
president paid tribute to officers and
men of the United States army, past
and present.
The president puts himself on record
as opposed to any reduction in the
standing army. He told of the preju-
dice that often had arisen against the
possible aggressions of regular army
and professional soldiery, and of the
corresponding difficulty in arousing
that love and pride in the army which
expresses itself today and has fre-
quently expressed itself in the past in
behalf of the navy. The president as
serted that the services of the regulars
had never been commemorated ade-
quately by congress or the nation.
"The profession of arms always has
been an honorable one," he declared.
"All honor to the regular army of the
United States. Never in it's history
has it had stain upon its escutcheon. "
On the way to Gettysburg from
Pittsburg, the presidents car was side
tracted at York for two hours and dur
ing his stay he made brief address,
in which he declared again his hope for
the early enactment of tariff law,
adding:
81 have been called an optimist fol
predicting that congress would adjourn
by June 20. Perhaps l am. But il
the Lord is good to US and the weather
gets hot enough in June, think oul
national legislators will be mighty
glad to get out of those two close
chambers at Washington.
Four regiments of the regular army
were here to participate in the exer
cises. There also was personal es
cort to the president composed of vet
Grams of the regular army who Tough
in the Gettysburg campaign. Th
president was taken for drive owe
the battlefield. At several points h
alighted and stood on the prominence
overlooking the valley below and tn
mountains in the far distance.
The ceremonies of the unveilin
were simple. Miss Taft pulled tn
silken cord that released the flag
: draped about the monument. In fall
ing one Of the flags caught on bronz
eagle decorating one of the inscribe
tablets. A trooper gave the flag
. tug, but it could not be released unit
large hole had been torn in the fold
of the stripes. After the president
: speech, Secretary Dickinson presente
the monument to the battlefield CON
: mission. After the unwilling the pres
ident reviewed the troops. A mounte
battery of artillery which recent
a served in Cuba was a source of muc
interest. When the review was COZ
cluded, the president hurried to hi

SHORTAGE IN LEWISTON BANK
Discovered by Bank Examiner--Stock-
holders Make Good.

Discovered by Bank Examiner Stock
holders Make Good.
Lewiston, Idaho, June 2.-Defalca-
tions amounting to $137, 900 have been
found on the books of the Lewiston
National Bank by National Bank Ex-
aminer Claude Catch.
Clarence Robnett, former teller, and
]. E. Chapman, former bookkeeper,
are accused of responsibility for the
alleged shortage. Robnett was con-
victed of Idaho land frauds three years
ago and is said now to be in st. Paul.
Chapman is thought to be in Tacoma.
Pittsburg dispatches about ten days
ago accused Robnett of passing worth
less checks to cover land deals near
Spokane. 1t is alleged that his short
age in the bank is due to speculations
in irrigated lands.
Beyond the statement that the stock
holders of the bank have made good
the alleged shortage, Bank Examiner
Catch refused tonight to discuss the
situation,
Examination of the books show the
alleged embezzlement has been carried
on for the past five years and has beer
made possible without detection only
through the conspiracy of the tellel
and bookkeeper, and the manipulation
of the adding machine used in comput
ing the daily balances.

Leipsig, June 3.-The Anarchists of
Germany are at present in conference
here and the attendance is large. To
day the congress adopted motion de-
claring that membership in any church

principles of anarchy and called on all
anarchists to cease their membership
in churches. DR.. Friedborg, of Ger

fought for by cultural methods. The

FAIR is OPENED.
First Days Attendance at A.-Y.-P
Exposition 1926.

Exposition 80, 1886.
Seattle, June 2.-Seattle came into
her own yesterday, and in spite of the
threatening skies opened the exhibition
that has been the dream of her exis-
tence for the past two years. Aside
from this, Seattle demonstrated to the
world that she had become a full
fiedged city, capable of caring for ex-
position crowds as we'll as any of the
more Eastern cities that have wrestled
with the problem. In fact Seattle
surprised herself, as we'll as her thou
sands of visitors today, and acquitted
herself we'll in everything.
The gates at the fair grounds opened
at 8 o'clock in the morning and there
was crowd on hand to rush them in,
though there was nothing on the days
program until 10 o'clock. But the
crowd didn't care; it surged through
the gates at rate that promised well
for the attendance figures, and it kept
surging in just that way for the rest
of the day.
At 10 O'Clock the military and naval
pageant commenced, soldiers and sail
ors of the Union as we'll as the Wash
ington guardsmen acting as escorts tc
the exposition officers and visiting
Japanese officers in a parade about the
grounds. The parade pleased all, anG
passed the reviewing stand in the best
of order.
The first days attendance at the ex
position, according to figures giver
out by the management tonight, was
S9,2S6. The greater part of this was
in the daytime, more than 79, 900 per
sons passing through the turnstiles be
tween the opening hour and 6 o'clocl
tonight. The night attendance wa'
cut down by severe rainstorm.

Guymas, Mex, June Through
the use of wireless telegraphy, the
American steamer Precursor, rendered
helpless by a broken propeller. was
rescued from dangerous position and
towed into this port yesterday. The
Precursor had drifted aimlessly for
three days. A tug was sent out and
brought the steamer into port. Some
of the passengers had become uncon-
trollable from fear and had to be
locked in their staterooms.
