American Commission Finds 100000
Now Dependent on Soup Kitchens.
London, Nov. 25. The American
commission for relief in Belgium issued
the following statement:
with regard to a statement pub
lished in America and credited to Cen
eral Won Frankenberg, governor Of Ant
werp. to the effect that IL America had
not been so kind-hearted as to send
foodstuffs to Belgium the Germans
themselves would have considered II
their duty to bring food from Germany
we can not conceive that the German
governor Of Antwerp ever authorized
such statement and are inclined tc
believe that the report Is unfounded.
The following cities. thru their repre-
sentatives, have made repeated appeals
to the German Representatives in Ant
werp for food: Malines, Lierre. Willie
sbroeck, Boom, Duffel, Torhagen. st
Nicholas, Coutich and Wahlen. They
were refused.
Last Friday two town councillors
Of Antwerp came to our headquarters
in Rotterdam and stated that they
had been released by the German all
thorities under bond of 100000 francs
($1, ,00O,OOO) to obtain help for the desti-
tute OF Antwerp and upon their urgent
representation we sent $40 tons of sup
plies to Antwerp.
"The provinces of Limbourg and
Luxemburg, adjoining the German
frontier, nave made repeated appeals
t othe Germans for the right to buy
food in Germany and import 1t into
Belgium, and have been consis tently
refused.
IT the Germans are prepared to feed
the Belgians early announcement to
that effect and an organization for that
purpose will be Immediately required to
save the lives Of millions Of people.
"As regards the report that no one is
starving In Belgium the official state
ments Of the Spanish and American
ministers in Brussels. the appeal OF
Cardinal Mercier and the daily detailed
accounts from every source Of wide
spread suffering prove that such re-
port is cruelty false and that there are
considerably over million and a half
people dependent on the soup kitchens
at the prement moment is in itself suf-
f1cient evidence"

Motor Boats For Germans.
Motor boats fitted with high-pow.
cred engines and armed with quick fir
ing guns are about to be employed by
the Germans in efforts to cross tht
inundated areas along the User, say:
a dispatch from correspondent of the
Times. The Germans are putting il
shape a large number Of such boats.
1t is presumed by the allies that the
motor boats will be used in the com
ing supreme attempt OF Emperor Will
liam,s armies to break thru the allies
lines and reach the French coast. Dec
10 is reported to be the new date SCI
for arriving at this goal.
For the expected fresh assault on the
allies lines the fourth contingent OF
fresh German troops is said to have
reached Flanders. A renewal of the
German offensive is looked for any
where between Arras and the sea. Il
this fails the allies believe the Ger
{ mans will definitely abandon attempts
to reach the French coast and fal
back on the network of trenches be-
hind their advanced positions.

CURED in the capital tonight when a
mob gathered in front of the national
palace. Later they marched to stores
where arms and ammunition were kept.
battered down the doors and sacked
the places Of their contents. There was
much shooting. but thus far the casual
ties are few.
The police were powerless, as the few
who remained to guard the, city were
stripped Of their arms by the mob:
Laterin the evening the mob. which
had been constantly growing, broke up
into smaller bodies and the looting of
pawn shops and other establishments in
various sections of the city was bsgun.
Citizens Arm TO Restore Order.
The trouble began at o'clock in the
evening and at late hour still con-
tinues. All street car traffic was stopped
except the Red Cross service, which was
taking care of the dead and wounded
from the fighting at Tacubaya. At s
o'clock bodies Of civilians and former
federal soldiers were formed. They
paraded the principal streets and
marched to police headquarters and the
Brazilian legation, where they were
armed.
1t was hoped that this force later
would be able to control the situation.
Zapata at Doors Of Capital.
The reports of unrestrained rioting in
the Mexican capital indicate that all the
organized constitutionalist forces have
left the city either to meet the forces
of General Villa, coming from the north,
or those Of General Zapata which have
been threatening the capital from the
south.
The mention of fighting at Tacubaya,
which is only five miles southwest of
Mexico City. would make it appear that
the Zapata forces are virtually at the
doors of the capital.
eIanco Probably Absent.
General Blanco and several thousand
men composed the last organized force
that late reports said remained in
Mexico City, all other armed forces hav-
ing left last week. With them went all
the national. federal. district and city
officials. It seems likely, judging from
the reports of the rioting, that General
Blanco left with his troops to take part
in the fighting either to the north or
the south.
Plan to Bottle Up Villa.
1t is reported here that the advance
guard of General Villas army has
reached Teoloyucan. about twenty
miles north Of Mexico City. General
Alvoro Obregon is still in the city.
In statement General Obregon said
that General Villa had arrested Julio
Madero brother of the late President
<Madero
General Obregon declared that he and
General Pablo Gonzales had sufficient
troops to defeat General Villa, but that
they had desisted In order to allow
Villa to enter the city, where the en-
tire .constitutionalist army would bot
tie him UP.
when Francisco Villa and Emiliano
Zapata are found together in the ma
tional palace" said General Obregon,
"the republic will feel a convulsion
OF repugnance which will shake 1t to
It's foundation. It is then that we will
start our campaign to eliminate them
and we will be successful.

Washington, Nov. 25.-conAiet-
: ing advices and uncertain COM
munication with Mexico City
caused doubt and apprehension to-
day over what actually was occur
ring at the Mexican capital.
A first official dispatch, dated
early yesterday, said Gen. Lueio
BIanco had abandoned the city and
that the Zapata forces were enter
ing. Then later dispatch, dater 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon, said
that while General elanco was not
to be found, he still was reported to
be somewhere in the capital, while
his troops, however, were evacuat-
ing and taking property az they
left.
The Zapata forces were then re-
ported on the outskirts Of the city
and it was understood they were in
agreement with the Villa forces
not to enter the capital until the
latter arrived.
This, the latest dispatch pointed
out, was uncertain, tho the Brazil
Ian minister had received assyr-
anees from the Zapatista chiefs
that they would preserve order and
give every protection to foreign
ers.

i United Press Dispatch.
 Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 10. - Because the Ohio State Board of Moving Picture Censors elimin- ated from the film Ten Nights In A Barroom", drinking and murder scenes, it has called down upon itself the wrath of Ohio's anti-saloon league.
 The anti-saloon league is now in the thick of a strenuous bat tie to make all Ohio dry. The voters are to ballot on the pro- hibition amendment at the gen. eral elections early in November and the league had planned to use the film as one of their main arguments in gaining votes. Now according to dry workers, the censors have spoiled it all.
 "All the punches have been ta- ken out of the film," said Wayne B. Wheeler, state superintend- ent of the anti-saloon league. "A saloon scene which teaches that drunkenness brings crime, dis order and inefficiency has good result. We feel that the film should be shown as the book was written" Meanwhile the cen sors stand pat on the ruling that saloon scenes are naughty, and cannot creep into any films shown in the state.

BARN YARD CREATURES
 ARE NOT STUPID
Acts With Gentry Bros. Shows
 Demonstrate Libel of Sheep , And Pigs.

For generations the pig, the
 goat and the sheep were consid-
 cred the most stupid animals.
 The trainers with Gentry Broth
 ers' Famous Shows, however,
 have disproven the libel. With
 Gentry Bros. Shows, which will
 visit this city next Friday, Sep
 tember 11th, is a complete troupe of trained pigs, sheep and
 goats.
 If you ask the trainers why these creatures are considered the most stupid, the tutor will Psay it is because those who ex-
 pounded the theory were not pa- tient enough in training.
 Trained dogs, rolling barrels, |climbing through hoops, etc.,
 are common, but with Gentry
 Brothers Famous Shows is a troupe of barn yard animals
 that do this and more. The
 scope of animals which Gentry Brothers trainers have educated
 runs from the lowly swine of the
 barn yard to the leopard and ele- phant of India. Their wild anil nal feature, which is presented in the big show, is said by train CTS to be the most marvellous act
 ever presented to the public. | Gentry Brothers Famous Shows carry many European novelty acts, seen this season for the first time in America. Gentry Brothers Shows will give two exhibitions in this city, Friday, September 11th. (Adv.)

 The English are the only troops in Khaki.
 The Belgian infantry are dis tinguished by their gren coats and dark gray truosers.
 The only difference between the Uhlans and the Belgian Lan- cers is that the former are in gray from head to foot, but the jacket and helmet of the Belgi- ans are black.
 The Austrian Hussars and Dragons are in blue with red trousers, but their coats have no braiding in front and their helmets no plumes.
