CHURCHILL |S
 GIVEN OVATION
 BY HIS PEOPLE
Former First Lord of Brit ish Admiralty Tells of Important Work of Prep aration-Was Responsible for It, He Says
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHI

DUNDEE, June Winston Srer- Ger Churchill, formerly First Lord of the Admiralty and Chancellor of the Duchy Lancaster in the coalition cabinet. arrived at Dundee, which he represents in the house of commons. He was received enthusiastically at a meeting of his constituents. He told them he did not come to make explanations or to indulge in re breaches or recrir3ina tions. for the only thing he cared about was the waging of a successful war on the enemies of Great Britain.
 For four years 1 have borne the heavy responsibility of being. accord . ing 10 tIme-honored language of my natent. responsible to the crown and parliament for all 4he business of the admiralty" MT. Churchill said
 When l say responsible. 1 was re- sponsible in q sense that I would have to bear the blame of everything which occurred. These years com l'rised the most important period of our naval history-the period of prep aration for war, a period of vigilance and mobilization, and I have done my best. The archives at the ad- miralty will show the part I played in all the great transactions which have taken place. To them I look for my defense
 'I look also to the, general naval situation. The terrible dangers at the beginning of the war are over The seas have been swept clean. Every thing is in perfect order. Nearly everything was foreseen We have taken the measure of our foe. only to go forward with confidence"
 MT. Ch1rchnl added that there were two statements he wished to make about the operations in the Dardan- clles. Heavy losses must be expected or land and sel. The fleet employed there composed the surplus warships after all other needs were provided for.
 Those who supported Lord Kitche- ner embarked on those operations without thoroughly and carefully con sidering every requirement. in rela- tion to the army in France and Flanders were not only mistaken, but

House Appropriation Bill Came to Its Death in Conference Senate De clines to Pass So-called Prohibition Bill
LAND MEASURE
 BEING FORMED
Substitute Bill Embracing Features of Many Pro- posed Measures Will Prob ably Be Reported to the House Tomorrow

A program of slaughter with inter- missions of unholy glee made up the program yesterday. The so-called prohibition bill was killed and in the afternoon the appropriation bill pro- viding for the expenses of the second extra session was permitted to die without hope of a glorious resurrection. The end came to it in conference after the senate had mustered just enough votes to pass it in it's greatly amended form. ~ssa
 The amendment consisted in the re- duction of the total appropriation agreed to by the house, $45,000 to $1S,- 900. In that shape the bill was sent to the house a little before noon and the house promptly voted not to con- cur In the afternoon the house asked for conference and appointed as man. agers, Messrs Powers, Newbury and Pinkley. The senate conferees were Messrs. Stapley, CIaridge and Martin. After a deliberation of half an -four the committee agreed to disagree and so reported to their respective houses. It was learned that the senate con- ferees had suggested various compro- mises, the most liberal looking to an appropriation for a thirty day session. The house conferees insisted upon the original appropriation. On the report of the senate conferees the senate was disposed at first to drop the matter but a little later a new committee consist ing of Messrs Riggs, Campbell and Drachman was appointed. The orig inal house committee was sent back. Another half hour resulted in a dis agreement and the bill was allowed to die So, the legislature is running without a very brilliant prospect of pay for either members or attaches.
 The prohibition bill was defeated by a vote of nine to six. Prohibition bilP is rather a misnomer for members of strong prohibition tendencies voted gainst it because of the liberality of the provisions for the druggists. No- body was enthusiastic in it's favor, probably because it was believed that the constitutional amendment suffi- ciently covers the situation or because the senate was desirous of waiting to see what the house was going to do about it.
 The senate membership in attend ance was increased yesterday by the return of Messrs Goldwater and Karns. The former asked to be shown by what authority the legislature had convened itself into an extra session. He had had no official notice that one would be held. He had failed to discover in the minutes of the senate from the opening day to the present any evil dence of the fact that the house was yet in session. In his opinion the sen ate was meeting on very slight sus- picion. Further along, MT. Goldwater said that he would like to get away as soon as possible and to that end he favored giving his time for nothing tc the state. Evidently he did not think that enough of the other members were

TEN COWBOYS
 GROSS BORDER
 RESCUE BOYS
Posse of Americans Braves 15O Mexican Troops at Santa Cruz, Sonora, and Returns With Youths Held Prisoners There
Associated Press Dispatch)

NOGAl1ES. unc ). - A posse of ten American cow boys and miners rode eight miles across the border into Santa Cruz, Sonora, late to- day, and lcveJing their guns at the colonel commanding the garrison, while 150 Mex ican soldiers looked on, se- cured the immediate release of two American boys, kid naped by three Mexican sol diers on the Arizona side of the border early in the af- ternOon.
 The colonel gave up the two 17-year-old prisoners, George Vaughn, son of a storekecpcr at Duquesne, and Henry Chang, son of 9 Chincse-Amcrican citizen at Washington Camp, Arizona, without demur.
 The posse rode tTiumph- antlv back to the United States.
 Santa Cruz is garrisoned by forces of Maytorena, the Villa goverr or of Sonora Washington Camp, where the Mexicans captured the boys and Duquesne are border settlements twenty-five miles east of here.
 Little information concerning the rescue has been received The first news of the Kidnapping was brought to Duquesne. where the riding party was hurriedly gathered together by c. K. Franklin, a miner. who said he saw the boys being taken toward Mexican territory. They were bound and on foot, he said, while the Mex jeans rode behind on horses, cover ing the prisoners with rifles Frank lin was unarmed.
 Maytorena, whose headquarters are at Nogales, Sonora, said he had no knowledge of the affair, and did not believe it really happened. Army of ficials thought the raid would have no serious consequences.
 The posse under Sheriff Mcknight of Santa Cruz county, Arizona. which started from here when the first re- ports were received, is understood to be on it's way back tonight.

American Army Transports Will Carry Refugees - Red Cross Preparing tG Send Further Supplies into the Country

Until Success of Villa Com mandcr Against CarIanza Forces is Sure, No Polit- ical Development is EX- pCcted
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHI

WASHINGTON. June 5.-The army transports Buford and Fitzpatrick now at Galveston, will Gc sent tc Vera Cruz to bring back American and other foreign refugees reaching that port from Mexico City on trains now being arranged. Plans to send the ships were laid at the war de- partment Under British auspices ef- forts will be made early next week tC take parties by horseback and auto mobile from Mexico City to Pachuca from which place there is railroad communication to Vera Cruz. The American Red Cross will dispatch on Thursday a shipment of medical sup plies to American, Spanish and French hospitals in Mexico City via Vera Cruz and will send two more carloads of relief supplies to Monterey. The last few days about 5000 refugees have arrived at Laredo from Mon ferey. many of whom are destitute.
 Arnold Shanklin, consul general at Mexico City, now awaiting orders at Vera Cruz. probably will take com mand of the American refugee situa- tion at the capital and look to the su- pervisiOn and distribution of relief supplies. It is doubtful if F. Morris, acting national director of the Red Cross. will go to Mexico City as he previously planned. In its summary the Red Cross said: The last few days about 5000 people, many of whom are destitute. arrived in Laredo from Monterey as a result of an order pub lished by Governor Monterey and Gen. Davilla, which provided all ci- williams who wished to go to the bor- der would be furnished free trans portation. This information comes in a telegram from General Evans at Fort Sam Houston. The railroad be- tween NuevO Laredo and Monterey opened May 27 according to the Evans dispatch, since then it has been run ming very irregularly. One train took three days coming from Monterey. An crder from Gov Davilla is good for five days only. The Mexican authori- ties turned the refugees over to the American side for care but the i'm migration authorities had to turn back about 90 per cent of them. What is going to become of those driven hack to the other side of the river is not known"
 General Devol director general of the American Red Cross. will leave tomorrow for Fort Sam Houston to confer with General FunstOn.on the direction of the Mexican relief cam paign. He will also visit various border points with the view of ex- pediting relief stores.
 The effect of Wilson's warning to the factions in Mexico is still un- known to the United States govern ment. None of the chiefs have made reply.

In Caucasus, and Germany Adds Five Steamers to Toll of War-Dispatch Says Austrians Repulsed Allies Attack
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHI

i LONDON. June 5.-A message from Mitylene that the combined general offensive against the Turkish posi- tions has begun yesterday and Win ston Spencer Churchilrs statement at Dundee that the allied forces were within a few miles of victory, are taken as an indication that things are moving a little more quickly on the Gallipoli peninsula, where the Anglo French troops are fighting for positions to give them command of the Dardanelles. Turkey is reported near the end of her resources in the Caucasus. where the Russians are making steady progress. the Turks may have to meet the Italians land ing in Asia Minor.
 Heavy fighting is still in progress in Galicia, where the AustrO- Germans are attempting an encircling move ment against Lemberg. such as proved successful at Przemysl. In this the fortunes are fluctuating. An attempted German offensive in the west seems to have failed. as Berlin admits the loss of the sugar refinery lat Souchez. which was considered an important position and to gain which many lives were sacrificed.
 Since Wednesday the Germans have sunk five steamers. three of which were British. one Danish, one Swed- ish, twelve British trawlers and two sailing vessels.
 Operations in the Dardanelles have been necessarily slow. After their landing. the first allied forces had to be supplied with necessary artil- lery and endorsements to enable them to attack the Turks, who have occupied very strong positions and have been delivering repeated attacks on the British and French lines.
 Nothing official has been received from either side for several days. but dispatches from Athens state the all lies have repulsed in all their at tacks the last of which was against the Australians and New Zealanders on Monday resulted in very heavy Turkish losses. The successful end ing of these operations will be joy ously received here as in addition to the heavy losses sustained by the land forces. Warships which are sup porting them are in continual danger of German submarines. This of course, would mean an end to Fur
 
 In the Galician district the Austro- Germans appear to be making prog ress from the southwest. while their left wing is held up on the lower reaches of the San river and their extreme right is in eastern Galicia. Bukowina is being severely ham mered by the Russians. Although Churchill, former First Lord of the Admiralty. announced the submarine menace had been fixed within cer- tain limits, the Germans have been very successful in this warfare the last few days, particularly against fishing craft, although such craft under the Hague treaty are supposed to be immune from attack. German total for the week ending Wednesday is eight British vessels out of total of thirteen hundred, measuring three hundred tons and over. which arrived at or departed from British

 PARIS, June 5-A Havas dispatch from Brest says the crew of the French steamship Penfold arrived there, the steamer having been sunk by a German submarine Thursday. After thirty hours of exposure in small boats the crew landed last night.
 Of the attack the captain says. When thirty miles off Oussant, about noon the forward watch reported the submarine. Three other steamships were nearby but the submarine made directly for the Penfold, which was the smallest and fired five shells which fell astern or went overhead. After we signalled three times we were stopping, the submarine ceased firing and allowed the crew time to take to the boats. A torpedo sank the steamer within three minutes"
