cording to Navy Department advices

Rear Admiral Mayo sent wireless
message to Acting Secretary of the
Navy Blue that a fierce "norther" is
blowing and that he does not consider
II safe for the refugees to try to
board the American vessels until the
wind abates. Rear Admiral Mayos
report from Tampico read:
Fighting continues; no change in
the situation. Federal gunboats Vera
Cruz and Saragoza Smelling Arbol
Grande "a suburb captured by the
rebelsl, On account of the norther
and the little change in the situation,
am discouraging refugees coming on

board the Des Moines, alongside a

which is improbable, conditions will
be much more serious. Reports on
shore that American battleshipS are

Rear Admiral Fletcher at Vera Cruz
reported that he had instructed Ad-
miral Mayo ito give refuge to all
Americans and other foreigners as

1t is probable that Admiral Fetch

ianitor that the basement doors were
always locked, and that even il per
son had gone to sleep in the shaft,
the elevator would not have touched
the body unless it was heavily loaded
with freight, which very seldom was
the case.
Phillips declared that the elevator
always stopped few feet from the
bottom Of the shaft. He said that no
one could have come into the base
ment without being seen and recalled
having seen no one hanging about
the building.
This left as probabilities the killing
OF the man on one Of the upper floors
and the throwing of his body down
the shaft while the elevator was up

Plague and Minor Ills
Among Soldiers in Rain
besogged Fields Cause
Concern to British.
LONDON, Sept. %.


The British army officials admittedly
are gravely concerned over the sanitary
situation in the field. Constantly re-
curing reports which can hardly be
overlooked, insist that real Asiatic
cholera Is present, not only In Austria
among the wounded In Vienna and
Budapest and among the troops on the
firing line in Gallcia but that it actually
has developed in certain parts of Russia.
In addition typhoid and typhus, as we'll
as dysentery, are said to be raging In
the ranks of some OF the German armies
and navy, French and British soldiers
suffering from milder disease.
AS result of these developments ex-
traordinary activity is in evidence at all
of the hospital cases. To the troops at
the front have been sent enormous guam
titles OF uuicklime, which Is being used
wherever II Is necessary to clean UP
battlefelds in the rear of the troops.
In addition, the most extraordinary pre-
cautions are being taken to insure that
no water used by the army in the field
is taken from contaminated sources. In
this respect the British army Is much
better off than any of the other forces
in the field.
From the first landing on French soil
the commanders of the troops have been
active in safeguarding the water supply.
Whenever the field kitchens are not en-
gagged in supplying food for the men they
have been kept in operation boiling
water. Consequently up to the present
time the British expeditonary forces have
been remarkably free from disease

by noncommssloned officer of the Bluffs:

have spoken sneernsly OF British officers
could have seen how they handled their

t"rmined when 1t is ft again to return
and get our own back"
Hundreds of men from the Salvation
Army missions have answered the call Of
Lord Kitchener for services loyally and
promptly. Stories Of the gallantry and
bravery of the Salvationists are now
coming back from the front.
one Of the wounded served as a motor
driver IN the royal field artillery. He
was bandsman In the Salvation Army
before war was declared and told of
Ing the favorite songs of the army on
the battlefelds at night
Telling OF the lighting, the former
bandsmen said:
Shells were bursting all around us and
I was struck by q splinter. 1t was only
hesh wound. however, so l bound 1t
up and went ahead with my work. First
1t seemed the enemy was getting the bet
ter of us. then he would retreat and SO
the battle went all day. Comrades were
falling all around me- The Germans
were falling I'm hundreds. So thick we're
the dead of the enemy that when the
order to advance was given we simply
had to force the motor over heaps OF
bodies. While following the retreating
Germans six Of us got lost. For four
days we tramped without anything TO
eat or drink. on the third day our
tongues were hanging out from thirst
and two Of the men went mad. 1t was
on the fourth night that we fell in with
the British ambulance sections, and one
OF the first sounds | heard was wound
ed man in one OF the wagons singing;
I'm a child of a king,
I'm child of king,
With Jesus my saviour.
I'm a child of king
II learned that he was Salvatonist
and later in the stiffness OF the night I
heard a clear voice in another part Of
the camp singing:
Then we'll roll the old chariot along,
And we won't drag on behind
The song was taken up In other parts
of the camp until it swelled into a chorus
of voices that made the air ring with
the old Salvation Army song"

Gabriel Mourey. curator OF the ancient

the Germans when they occupied the
town laid straw upon the palace floors,
where their soldiers smoked ard slept
The officers did not occupy the historic
ROYAL beds but they took the mattresses
and ether equipment from the beds
notably that which was once the bed Of
Marie Autoirstte, and slept on them on
the floors of the ancient royal bedrooms,
TIE invaluable Beauvais tapestries had
been removed n safe place before the
Germans arrived, the curator reports
Nothing was removed from the palace,
~ says, and no damage done, except 70
some Of the furniture, which can be re-
paired easily, and 10 the chessboard which
Queen Caroline, Of Naples. presented 70

not harmed, but the chessmen were taken
