WITH THE BLUE ARMY, AIEA,
Oct, 24.-The Blues are falling back
steadily before the Red invaders, who
are now rapidly approaching this spot.
Since $3.50 o'clock this morning the
Blues have been falling back from
Schofield Barracks, covering Pearl
Harbor and finally retreating toward
Honolulu.
Col. Wilder, commanding the Blues,
no doubt has something up his sleeve
for t. retreat does not seem TO
worry him or his officers. The Blues
have fallen back in good order all
day long and have protected them
selves well at all times.
WITH THE ELUE ARMY, IN THE
FIELD, Oct. 24.-At six o'clock this
morning the special situation" for
the Blues, giving a summary of the
work ahead of them in their defense
of Oahu, has been learned. Action is
beginning almost at once.
Authentic report has been received
that the enemy is landing in force
at Nanakuli.e The Blue army, Col.
Wilder commanding, has withdrawn
in good order toward Honolulu and
taken up a position suitable for the
defense of Honolulu and Pearl Har
Dor.
The Red Army came in contact with
the rear guard this morning. No
general engagement has taken place
as yet, but our columns are consider
ably harrassed by Red artillery fire.
Some important move is contemplated
by Co. Wilder, the nature of which
correspondents are not allowed to dis
close owing to strict censorship.
ON THE MARCH WITH BLUE
ARMY, Oct 2f-(7:O5 a. m.)-Enemy
have started in motion.

PLAN BIG GUN TEST
FOR SKELETON MAST
Naval Experts to Experiment With
Lattice Work Con-
struction.

NORFOLK, Va, Aug. 2l.-To be fired
at by the biggest guns on the biggest
ships In the American navy, a towering
skeleton mast, such as are used on the
greatest dreadnaughts OF today, is being
installed on the sunken hulk of the old
bsttleship San Marcos. formerly the
Texas, which lies partly buried in the
mud Of Chesapeake bay, of Tangier
sound.
Apprehending too great an interest by
foreign powers, the Government per-
mitted no photographs of the mast to
be taken while II was In the Norfolk
navy yard, and, hoping to prevent 1t
from being snapped while under way,
II was not sent away from the yard
until o'clock Sunday evening. and by
the time 1t reached the upper harbor
1t was too dark for photography.
The Navy Department hopes to deter
mine. with the firing Of broadsides at
the mast, the value OF the lattice mast
as a naval elevation, and the outcome
OF the experiment will be watched by
every nation, Tests with small guns
nave been made before, but never has
any nation attempted 10 fre shells from
twelve and thirteen inch guns at these
skeleton masts TO determine their sta
bility.

That ''all schools contributing to good

today in arranging his evidence for the

with six others. was indicted Cor the

will be the first OF those indicted to be
placed on trial.
The district attorney also was in

suspect, believed to be either "Gyp the
Blood" or Lefty Louie was under
arrest there. When arrested the De-
troit prisoner had in his possession

the Rosenthal case.
A thorough investigation, of charges

ENGINEER BLAMED
FOR LACKAWANNA
WRECK AT CORNING
Failed to "Observe or Be
Governed by Signals
Says Report.

Responsibility for the train wreck on
the Lackawanna at Corning, N. T.. July
I. when thirty-nine persons were killed
and eighty-e eight seriously injured, was
placed by the Interstate Commerce
Commission today on 'the failure of En-
gineman Schroeder to observe and be
governed by automatic block signals in
tended for prevention of accidents OF
this character, as well as the signals
gwen by a nagman."
H.. w. Belnap, chief inspector Of safe
ty appliance, who made a personal In
vestigation OF the accident, reports that
the number of lives lost would have
been materially reduced IL steel cars
had been used. There was only one
steel car in the train and this withstood
the shock Of the collision very well.
Belnap recommends that to prevent
repetition of similar disasters, tagging
rules be more explicit and the use OF
torpedoes required. He declares the
speed of fast trains should be reduced
in foggy or stormy weather unless au-
tomato train control devices are N :
stalled. In the Corning wreck he hnds
that failure TO use torpedoes was one
OF the contributing causes OF the wreck
