BELGRADE, Servia, Sept. 23.-The Servian

well armed Albanians. according 10 a
report received here. Servian reinforce
ments were hastily dispatched 10 the as
sistance Of the garrison.
the Albanians were said TO be led by
Austrian and bulgarian officers.
The Official account Of the capture CT
Dibra by the Albanians says that large
force attacked two companies of Servians
in the vicinity of that town on Monday
morning. After fierce battle Of two
hours the Servians withdrew toward
Retchevo. and the Albanians entered
Dibra. They numbered six thousand
and were commanded by foreign officers.

day between Servian troops and Alban-
ians on the new Albania frontier two
hundred Albanians were killed. accord
ing 10 a dispatch 10 the "Neue Freie
Presse." The lighting is reported TO have
occurred at a place between Dibra and
Jakova, where many Of the battles be-
tween the Servians and the Turks were
fought in the recent Balkan war. The
encounter was brought about by an at
tempt of several thousand Albanians 10
penetrate the territory captured by the
Servians from the Turks.
The Servisn troops lost one captain ana
q considerable number of men. They have
since been reinforced.
London. Sept. 24-Advices from Bel
grade say that servis intends 10 mobilize
a whole division TO deal with the Albanian
situation. because Albania respects moth
ing but force, and any delay In the nego-
tiations would be fatal to Servian inter-
estS.
The situation is otherwise extremely
threatening to the peace of Europe. Italy
may take strong measures, even TO the
extent of a blockade of me Pireus, should
Greece continue to encroach on southern
Albania while 1t Is rumored that Austria
will form an alliance with Bulgaria TO
prevent Servian aggressions in Northern
Albania.

NAVY AVIATOR
DROPS INTO BAY
Companion CIings to HydrOaero-
plane and Drops Slowly.
ENSIGN BILLINGSLEY KILLED.
The Machine, While Flying From An
napolis to Claiborne, Was Caused
To Lurch BY a Sudden Puff
Of Wind.

Annapolis, Md.-Ensign William D.
Billingsley, of the Navy Aviation
Corps, fell from a Wright hydro-aero-
plane at a height Of 1900 feet near
Kent Island and was killed. Lieut.
J. II. Towers, the ranking officer of
the aviation camp, who was also in
the machine, managed to keep his
hold when puff of wind caught the
rear at an altitude of 1000 feet and
had a miraculous escape. He held
on until the water was struck, and
then, when his grip was broken, man
aged to swim back and fasten himself
to the framework until assistance
came.
The accident is the first serious one
which has taken place among navy
aviators here, and that this did not re-
suit in the loss of two lives is due
to the fortunate chance that the puff
of wind did not come until after Kent
Island had been passed. The ma
chine had been down to St. Michaels
and was on its way back. 1t had
sailed over Kent Island just four min
utes before, and if the drop had oc-
CURED then both would have been
killed. Lieutenant Towers first
words when he was picked up were
that he owed his life to this chance
Desperate Effort in Air.
Towers grabbed at the steering
wheel in order to make a desperate
effort to come back to equilibrium,
but this was impossible. Then he
managed to get hold of the stanchion,
and chung to this until the water was
struck. Billingsley, apparently, was
unable to hold on very long after the
catapult to the perpendicular was
made, and fell out 400 feet from the
altitude at which the trouble oc.
CURED. Lieutenant Towers said la
ter that he could see his partner fall
ing below him, turning over and over,
and then hit the water with mighty
splash some seconds before the ma
chine reached the surface
The fall probably broke every bone
in Billingsley's body, and it is prob
able that he was dead before he hit
the water. The machine, however,
did not come straight down. Lieuten-
ant Towers kept his hold on the stan
chion, and when about 700 feet above
the water his weight caused a re-
turn to nearly the normal position.
The planes partially caught the air,
and on the principle of the parachute
the fall was checked and the frame
work hit the water with much less
force.
This was responsible for Towers
escape.

OLD GLORY WAVES
OVER BIG CAMP
Army Garrison Flag is Raised
at Gettysburg.
INF AMIR YMEk AT CEREMONY
Veterans From the South Will Be lo-
Gated On the Western Edge Of
Seminary Ridge, Over Which
Pickett Made Charge.

Gettysburg, Pa.-At reveille Sunday
morning the regulation garrison flag
of the United States army was float
ed from the large iron flagstaff at the
headquarters of the camp for the fif-
tieth anniversary of the Battle of
Gettysburg, two battalions of the
Fifth United States Infantry taking
part in the regular morning ceremony
of camp life as the colors, SO feet in
length, were drawn to the top of the
pole. The flying of the flag gave the
camp its first official appearance, and
during the day activities were carried
on vigorously, though the manual la
Dor of pitching tents and distributing
equipment was discontinued, the hun
dreds of civilians employed taking
day of rest before going on the last
lap in preparation for the arrival of
the veterans.
Announcement was made of the ar
rangement of the camp. Special sig
nificance is attached to the fact that
all the Southern States will have
their veterans located on the western
edge of the camp adjoining Seminary
Ridge, and on the exact ground which
witnessed Picketts charge of so
years ago. Many of the men from the
South will sleep on the exact spot
over which they charged July g. 1863,
while the Northern troops will occu-
Ply the ground to the immediate north
east of this same historic land. The
Virginia troops will be located to the
extreme south, their camp being with
in short distance of their uncom-
pleted monument to be surmounted by
the bronze equestrian statue of
Gen. Robert E. Lee.
Pennsylvania camp will be the
first adjoining Gettysburg; New
York's will adjoin Pennsylvania, with
the other states following closely, suf-
ficient space being reserved in the
camp for every state, and all the
camps to be designated with large
signs. The entire site is continuous,
there being no breaks in the layout
of the camp.
That the veterans who may be so
unfortunate as to become i'll while
here will be well taken care of was
demonstrated, when the plans for the
hospital equipment of the camp were
made public. Under the command of
Major NJ. A. w. Shockley, a provis-
ional ambulance company of IS off
GERS and men established their camp
here. They will erect two provision
al field hospitals, each with a capacity
Of 412 patients, and three regimental
hospitals, with capacity of $50 each.
Should they become overcrowded, ar
rangements have been made to re-
move such cases as permit to the
hospitals at York, Chambersburg and
nearby towns.

try has sought and seen its path in
this matter within the last few years
sees it more clearly now than it ever
saw it before-much more clearly than
when the last legislative proposals on
the subject were made. We must have
currency, not rigid as now, but read
lily, elastically responsive to sound
credit, the expanding and contracting
credits of everyday transactions, the
normal ebb and flow of personal and
corporate dealings. Our banking laws
must mobilize reserves; must not per-
nit the concentration anywhere in
few hands of the monetary resources
of the country or their use for specu-
lative purposes in such volume as to
hinder or impede or stand in the way
of other more legitimate, more fruit
full uses. And the control of the sys-
TEN of banking and of issue which our
new laws are to set up must be public,
not private, must be vested in the
Government itself, so that the banks
may be the instruments, not the mas
tiers, of business id of individual
enterprise and initiative.
The committees of the Congress to
which legislation of this character is
referred have devoted careful and dis
passionate study to the means of &C
complishing these objects. They have
honored me by consulting me. They
are ready to suggest action. l have
come to you, as the head of the Gov
eminent and the responsible leader Of
the party in power, to urge action
now, while there is time to serve the
country deliberately and as we should,
in a clear air of common counsel. |

OF duty. | believe that you share this
conviction. l therefore appeal to you
with confidence. | am at your service

way you may call upon me to play it

form which it viii! dignity and dis
tinguish us to perform and discredit

JUSTICE Whites
FORC|BLE APPEAL
FroWn Down the Attacks on the
Government.
NO COUNTRY LIKE THIS.
"Frown Down Attempt Which Is Grow
In the Land" Says the Chief JUS
tice, To Attack the Princi-
Piles Of Government.

Providence, R. IA plea to the
American people to ''frown down this
attempt which is growing in the land"
to attack the principles of the govern
ment was made by Chief Justice Ed
ward Douglas White, of the United
States Supreme Court, in an address
at Brown University, where he was
awarded an honorary degree of doctor
of laws at the annual commencement
exercises.
The Chief Justice said in part:
The very foundation of our free IN
situations was the belief not in the
march of a triumphant democracy, not
in the march of popular feeling and
popular conduct unrestrained, but that
men could restrain themselves, that
great principles could be written into
our national life which could steer and
guide and restrain and hold us and
lead us on, free from anarchy, full of
liberty, with life and property and
everything that blesses mankind saved
and secured. Look around in this
great land today.
Where is there a country like this?
The world has never seen the equal of
it, and the world will never see its en-
durance if the American people forget
the foundation principles of their free
institutions because of what they
imagine to be an evil here and an evil
there and seek to pull down the pillars
of the temple in order that they may
destroy what they suppose to be a rat
within the house.
Let us frown down this attempt
which is growing in the land. Many
thoughtless persons today suppose
that everything that is wrong is wrong
in the institutions, when without the
institutions, there would be no right
and everything wrong"

COMMERCIAL
Weekly Review of Trade and
Market Reports.
Dunn's Review says:

Dunn's Review says:
Increased activity in retail dis
tribution of seasonable merchandise
due to the favorable weather is re-
flected in a slightly improved demand
in wholesale markets. The winter
wheat harvest is now under way in
most sections of the belt and is equal
ing expectations of a heavy producS
ton.
Further Supreme Court decisions
in railroad rate cases, confirming
those of a week ago, produced little
or no effect on speculative markets.
In iron and steel a slight increase
in activity is reported, although de-
mand continued quiet and price con-
cessions to secure new orders are
made by some producers. Dry goods
jobbing houses are still operating con-
servatively.
1T is estimated that July interest
and dividend disbursements will eX-
coed $3.50, 100000, as compared with
100000 a year ago.
Failures numbered 264 in the
United States, against 253 last year
and 20 in Canada"

STATES UPHELD IN RATE CASES
Supreme Court Follows Principle in
Minnesota Decision.


Washington. - Following the prin.
ciple laid down by Justice Hughes in
the Minnesota rate case, the Supreme
Court disposed of fourteen other sep
arate rate cases nearly all of them in
favor of the States.
The cases decided involved the ac-
tions of the State authorities in Mis-
souri, Arkansas, Oregon and West Vir-
ginia in fixing two-cent passenger or
other rates. In only three of the four
teen separate cases disposed of were
the State made rates condemned as
coniscatory. Counting the Minnesota
cases decided last Monday, the rates
fixed by the State Commissioners or
State Legislatures in only four cases
out of seventeen have been overruled
on the ground of being confscatory.
The decisions laid down no new
principles except in the additional
light thrown on what the Supreme
Court regards as the proper way of
making physical valuations of rail-
road properties.
The Court adjourned until October
without announcing a decision in the
inter-mountain case or passing on ap-
plication for the review of the Comp
Observation-Disclosures contempt Of
court case.
