MEXICAN CAPITAL
AGAIN MENACED
GENERAL VILLAS SOLDIERS ARE
THREATENING MEXICO CITY
AND BATTLE is EXPECTED.
General Gonzales Heads Troops Which
viii Engage Advancing Column
In EndeaVor to Keep Fol-
lowers of Villa Out.

Washington.-Mexico City is again
threatened with attack and the Car
rama forces under General Gonzales,
who drove the Zapata army from the
capital ten days ago, have marched
hurrledly northward to engage an ad-
vancing villa column believed to be
planning a junction with the Zapata
troops, now menacing communication
with Vera Cruz.
State department dispatches on
Monday announced that General Con
zales with most of his army had eva
cuated Mexico City Sunday, turning
the government over to civil authori-
ties.
This was preceded by advices that
General Villas forces after the battle
OF Aguas Calientes and captured
Queretaro, had taken possession OF
Pachuca, within forty miles OF Mexico
City and was marching on the capital.
simultaneously with the later re-
port, came the news that General Car
rama had taken possession OF the re-

junction point south of Pachuca and
! he'd ordered that it be held exclusive
! ly for transportation of troops and
4 ammunition, thus preventing further
shipment of provisions from Vera Cruz
to the needy thousands at Mexico
City.
Officials here made no effort to con,
ceal their belief that the situation
surrounding the Mexican capital was
a grave one. With another battle fol-
possession Of the city imminent and
with much needed food shipments
from the east coast cut off, it was
feared that further suffering among
the civil population would follow
General Gonzales sudden evacuation
OF the city in an effort to head of
the villa forces, together with Car
ranza's action in closing the railroad
to freight and passenger traffic. 1t Il
feared here, will make further relic
work at the capital practically impos
sible.

Speed From the Enemy.

Washington. Into the grave situa'
ton that has developed between the
United States and Germany over the
sinking of the Lusitania was thrust
another issue when 1t was revealed
on Saturday that the British steamer
Orduna, carrying score OF Ameri-
cans, had been attacked by q Ger.
man submarine.
The Cunard liner orduna, bound
from Liverpool TO New York with 227
passengers, including twenty-five
Americans. was attacked without
warning, II was learned on her ar
rival at New York, by German sub
marine on the morning of July 8.
Should first reports OF an attempt
to torpedo without warning be borne
out by the official investigation about
to be instituted. II was indicated in
official quarters that the United States
probably would regard the incident
as adding a grave element to the al
ready strained relations between the
two countries.
Twenty miles from the graveyard
OF the Lusitanla OFF Old Head Of
Kinsale, the orduna escaped the Lusi'
tanla's fate by one-half a second of
time or ten feet of space, the German
torpedo churning the water that dis
lance behind the liners rudder, Then
the orduna sped away, She was fol
lowed by the submarine, which rose
to the surface. manned gun on her
deck and shelled the fleeing steamer.
The attack was timed at 10 minutes
to 8 o'clock in the morning, when all
but a few OF her passengers lay sleep
Ing in their herths Aroused by stew
ards. the passengers dressed hurried
ly and went to the upper deck, where
they put on life belts and took theiI
\ places at the lifeboats. They heard
4 the scream OF the shells and saw the
ocean spit up columns of water where
the shells struck. When the fire grew
hot they were ordered for their pro
lection TO the next deck below.
For half an hour the orduns
showed her heels TO the assallant
Through marine glasses the passen
gers watched the dark splotch on tn,

the lowlying German warship COMING
on. but the orduna's flight was taste

shots had been fred. without effect
the submarine gave up the chase.

On the resistance the Russians are

success or failure of the Austro-Ger

GERMANS ARE STILL
 WINNING IN EAST

Berlin, June 6.-(Via London, Il :45 p. m.) Advices from the Galician front continue extremely favorable to the Austro-Ger- mans According to a dispatch from Aus trian headduarters, the Russians are being unanswered out of one position after an- other and already are in full retreat from Medyka, east of Przemysl, and it is con sidered doubtful if they can make a stand at Mosciska.
 The line of the lakes running north and south through Grodek, which would be the next natural line of defense, is being taken on the flank by the Austro-German advance from the south. If this army forces passage of the Dneister the Gro dek line may prove untenable. and then the Russians might have great difficulty in retaining Lemberg. Attacks on each wing by the Russians have been fruit less. according to the Germans.

AEROPLANE DESTROYER"
 PERFECTED BY ITALIANS

Rome, May 25.-(special Correspond ence of the Associated Press. )-An aer- cplane destroyer" designed for at tacking dirigibles has been perfected In Italian government workshops. It is an enormous machine with three sep arate engines and with total energy or more than 250 horse power. The aero plane combines the tractor and pusher type of machines-that is. those drawn by an air screw in front and those pushed by an airscrew behind.
 It consists, in fact, of the bodies or two ordinary tractor biplanes placed side by side and far enough apart so that there is room between them for the propeller of third engine. Each of the two main bodies has its own engine and screw in front so that is looks at first like two ordinary tiac- tor biplanes flying hand in hand.
 On the section of wing which Joins the two bodies is placed the body work of an ordinary pusher biplane with the engine and propeller behind In this way the body projects well forward in front of the scrsws of the other two engines, so that it can carry
