LEASING BILL
 |S REJECTED Senate Sends Bill Back To Conference Committee and All Hope for the Measure Is Given Up.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-By a vote of 26 to 23 the Senate on Saturday afternoon returned the Alaska coal land leasing bill to the conference committee, refusing to accept the bill as agreed to by the conferees.
 All hope for the passage of the coal leasing bill has been abandoned by the friends of the administration, as every possible pressure was brought to bear by the president upon mem- bers of the Senate who opposed it. The former strongly urged the en. actment of the bill as the only way in which to open up the mining re- sources of the north, not only the coal, but by thus giving Alaskans cheap fuel the copper and iron mine owners would be enabled also to open up and employ a large number of men.
 A strong effort was made by the friends of the president to put off the rejection of the bill until a later day, but without avail.

FUNSTON STAYS
 AT VERA CRUZ
American Soldiers Not To Leave Mex. lean Port Until Conditions
 Look Better.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12-The war office announced today that Gener- al Funston and the American troops would remain at Vera Cruz indefinite ly. as the general outlook for peace in Mexico was bad. The rebels led by General Villa are in open revolt against Carranza and fighting contin- ues at Naco, while Villa and his forces are marching south to take Terreon.
 Former federal soldiers who escap- ed from Mexico City just before Car ranza reached the capital are now about the country taking whatsoever they want. raiding towns and cities and impressing many men 30 as to make their forces large enough to resist Carranza.
 It is understood in Washington that European powers with interests in Mexico have protested to the United States against the withdrawal of the troops as all countries now look to the United States for protection for their nations and have pointed out that they in turn have in many in- stances provided protection for Amer jeans in various parts of the world.

BOSTON MAKES IT THREE STRAIGHT I

BOSTON, Oct. 12.-The Boston Braves won the third game of the worlds series today by a scoree of 5 to 4. The game went twelve inn ings and was filled with sensational plays made by the members of both teams. The Mackmen secured eight hits, while the Braves made nine. and both teams were guilty of one error. The error made by Comedy. the left fielder for the local team, let in a run in the first inning and was costly, but after that the team clos ed up and played championship ball. Tyler pitched the first ten innings and was relieved by James. Gilbert batted for James in the last half of the twelfth inning and his long fly to deep center gave Mann, who was on third, 8 change to reach home with the winning run. Devore batted for Tyler in the ninth in an effort to bring in a run, but 1t was a fail ure, and James then replaced him.
 The game by innings was as fol. lows:
 The Philadelphia team was the first to the bat and Murphy succeeded in reaching second. being passed to first and stole second. Collins sent long drive to deep center and Comedy. who caught the ball. fumbled 1t a moment and then lete 1t fall and Murphy scampered home. The Boston team failed to score in the first.

BRITISH Av|AT0RS SAVED THE ARMY Reported the Approach of the German Encirciino Movement At Lille
 Army Saved.

BORDEAUX, Oct. 8.-Delayed in transmission) )-The French war of flee announced today that the Brit ish aviators saved the northern army yesterday when they reported the sudden approach of the German cav airy from the north of Lille and by their timely warning allowed for the bringing up of French cavalry to aid the small force of British horsemen who were holding the city to pro. tect the allies line of communication to the coast.
 Had the Germans been able to have surprised the Franco-British troops and captured Lille the main army on the Aisne would have been in danger of being flanked and as it was bare. ly time enough was given to rush troops to the scene from the allies left and from the coast.
 The German encircling movement was stopped at Lille and the force of Uhlans were severely defeated. Engagements of cavalry north of Lille are reported here as continuing.
