ALLIES ASK JAPAN
TO SEND SOLDIERS
TOTHELR ASSISTANCE

Toxic, Sept. 25.-The allies were re-
ported here today to be planning to ask
that Japan either send troops to the
Dardanelles to aid in quick dash to
Constantinople, or dispatch them to
Russia to make it impossible for Ger.
many to divert troops from the Slav OPP
erations toward the Balkans.
No official confirmation was obtain.
able, but the report attracted much
comment in view of tae probable en-
trance o. Bulgaria into the European
conflict.
At any rate, it is known that the
allies will be refused if they make the
requests. The government believes tnat
the difficulties of transportation are
insuperable, and, moreover, Japan is
not willing to risk her prestige in such
q venture
Recently the allies were reported an
CLING solely for Japan S aid in inereas-
ing munitions, particularly for Russia
France at an earlier date, however,
sought armed assistance, and now other
countries are reported planning to
make concerted appeal For such aid
Japan has steadily rejected all over
lures of this nature, and intends to do
so in the future. Some leaders urge
that by direct participation Japan

would shave better chance to claim
great advantages in the liquidation
following the war, but the majority is
opposed to any move of this sort.
The more recent proposals have sug'
gested an alliance either in the near
east or far east Japan has been some
what more amenable to suggestion of
far east program of aid, If 1t would
be practicable, but lately this proposal
seems to have been dropped while the
Dardanelles or Russia program has been
suggested as more pressing, and more
likely to be the subject Of a direct re.
quest for help from the allies
In answer to the allies request fol
help in augmenting their munitions
Japan declined to sell her reserve sup
plies but did take steps to extend her
plant and output
AS a result Japan by March next
will be in a position TO swell the
European supply of shells. What the
next step by Europe will be, remains
to be seen. Meantime, Japan intends
to do nothing further, unless unforeseen
developments require change OF
policy on her part.
She is preserving her military
strength in full readiness for any Rm.
ergency--but does not propose to lind
that emergency in Europe.

Heavy Buying Of Stocks
Causes General Advance

Copyright 1915 by the New York
Evening Post)
New York, Sept. 25.-Exceptionally
heavy buying in the market today,
which converged about railway shares,
represented a spreading out OF both
professional and outside speculation.
Apparently this was the case with the
highly stimulated speculative appetite
which was successfully directed toward
standard stocks, when speculation in
"war" shares seemed to be growing in
secure.
The advances in the railway stocks
were not all particularly striking, but
they were largest in some of the high
est grade issues--Pcnnsylvania, for in.
stance, which for months had remained
motionless, rising nearly three points.
But the salient feature Of today s
business was the great volume Of trad
ing, which, for the market as a whole,
made the most active Saturday since
Nav the market closed arouM the
highest prices for railway shares, but
industrial stocks hung back. From some
points Of view this diversion Of specu-
iative interest from industrials, whose
actual earning power is eOnjeetural 70
railways. whose status is perfectly well
known, was gratifying change.

Within the past six months there

that McGill may be able to shed some

Last spring three big haystacks, each
containing $50 tons, were destroyed at
Ell Pinal, on the property of George
West and sons. The stacks did not burn
simultaneously. While officers were

About two months ago big barn on
the Crittenden place near Tracy was

barn on the Gordon place in that vicin-
ity was also burned. 1t is notable that
large ranchers were the victims in
nearly all of these fires.

whose escapodes of 10 years ago re-
suited ii charges Of bigamy and per.
jury being placed against him and q
sentence Of fourteen years in San
Quentin prison being imposed, is today
making fight for liberty and will
probably win it,

sensation all over the state at the time
He was married and had two children

ing in San Francisco and by whom he
had two children, but that he had mar
ried the wife's sister, Agnes, who had
died, 80 he claimed to be acting within
his rights when he married the Chicago
woman.
The priest who performed the core
mony contradicted this statement, how
ever, and his children also turned
against him. Collins escaped to British
Columbia but was extradited on a per
jury charge.
Justice Burnett was at that tim,
superior Judge Of Sonoma county ant

at the trial. He sentenced Collins Il

years following during which time h,
was confined In the county jail. TIL

against him and In 1909 he started serv
ing his sentence.
Justice Burnett in endorsing the ap
plicntion for pardon today said he be

BORDER SITUATION IS
GROWING VERY SERIOUS
Twenty-Eight Mexicans Were
Killed and Wounded
In Fight

Brownsville, Texas, Sept. 25-Blame
for the Mexican attack upon American
soldiers at Progresso yesterday was
shifted today upon Carranza IS enemies
by the Carranzista consul here. He
declared that these enemies, fearing
that the United States is about to recog.
nize Carranza, organized the attack in
order to make it appear that Carranza
soldiers were in reality making war
against the American troops on the
border.
Despite this statement, however, of.
ficials were positive that regular Car
ranzista soldiers participated in the at
tack, and shielded fleeing Mexicans by
a protecting fire from trenches across
the river
The situation hereabouts is intense, as
result of the Progresso trouble. While
there was no resumpuon of the battle

constantly on guard lest there be new

McAllen had aid from an unexpected
quarter when a Mexican woman livinl
near the ranch joined the beleaguerei
