GERMAN WAR BALLOONS

Prussich- Holland. Prussia. Sept. g.
The two dirigle balloons used for aer-
ial scout duty by the opposing ar
mics in the imperial manoeuvres failed
grievously today, one crew leading its
army into an ambuscade, while the
other crew fell into the hands of the
enemy when the motor of its machine
gave out. The invading army tri-
umphed.
The dirigible operating with the de-
tenders reported this forenoon, what
the airmen took to be the exact loca-
ton of far extended ent.snched lines
of the invaders infantry and artillery.
Upon receipt of this misinformatlon,
the defenders advanced in a strong
attack only to find when the thin line
OF inva ders retreated. that they were
storlning a line OF breastworks behind
which trunks of trees instead of guns
had been placed. Before they could
recover from their mistake the de-
tenders flank was attacked and
victory for the invaders ensued.
The dirigioie OF the inys ders de-
veloped a defect in its motor and be-
ing compelled to descend was cap
tured by the enemy.

Beverly Mass, Sept e.-The sudden
passing away of Solicitor General
Lloyd w. Bowers made the day sad
one at Burgess Point. especially as
President Taft had been assured only
two days ago that his college mate

While it would not have been pos
sible because of the cases pending be-
fore the court for the president to ad-
vance Mr.. Bowers to the supreme
bench when the announced retirement
in the next two months of Justice
Moody, it was expected by friends of
the president that the appointme ent
would be made after the argument of
the corporal ton tax early in the win
ter.
AS the Standard Oil and income tax
cases are set for November and the
corporation tax cases will follow fast
the selection of new solicitor general
will probably be made within a COM
paratively short time, although the
work of representing the governments

intrusted to the attorney generals de-

New York Sept. 9.-There is a de-

saloon keepers in Brooklyn over the
prospect of an immediate boost in the
present rate of 1915 for their liquor
tax certificates to $1,000. The law pro-
vides that when the population of a
city or borough exceeds 100000 the
liquor tax rate shall be ST. 200.
According to the census figures re-

these figures are announced officially

notified of the increase. F. F. Dono-

Dealers association, said that he had
been swamped with questions by the
members in regard to the matter and
he estimated that there may be a third
