SCENE Of RIOTS
(By Associated Press.)

PORT AU PRINCE, Hayti, July 81
Rebellious government troops attack
ed the palace early today and great
disorder prevails throughout the city.
President Gulliaum, surrounded by a
bodyguard of loyal troops has barri-
caded the ground surrounding the
palace, and is offering a stiff resist
tance to the rioters.
1ncendiary bombs fired by the
rebels set fire to portion of the
palace, and at noon practically the
whole building was in flames. Its cap
itulation is momentarily expected.
United States warships at anchor
in the harbor, moved close inshore
early today, and foreigners desiring
to leave were taken on board. The
guns of the warships command the
customs house, which is under Amer
ican supervision and preparations have
been completed to prevent disturbances
in that part of the city.

LONDON, July 27.-The magnitude
of the German movement in the east
ern theater of operations is absorbing
British attention today and grave
fears are entertained that the sue
cess of the present movement may SO
effectually cripple the Russian armies
as to seriously endanger the position
of the English and French armies in
the west. The situation in the east,
it is generally admitted is more crit
ical than at any time since Won Hin
denburg executed his remarkable
coupe in East Prussia.
The latest reports from that quar-
ter show Field Marshal Won Beulow
at the head of thirty thousand Teuton
cavalrymen, has turned sharply south
ward from Riga, pressing forward so
rapidly during last night that his corps
reached point within eighty miles of
the Petrograd-W Warsaw railroad, the
main line of communication between
the Russian capital and the armies in
the field, and possession of which
would enable the Germans to practi-
cally shut the great stream of supplies
being brought into Russia from the
United States and Canada, via Vladi-

CHICAGO, July 27.-With the arrival
of Secretary Redfelds, of the depart
ment of commerce today, steps were
taken to definitely determine what
form the federal investigation into the
Eastlands disaster will assume. Sec
retary Redfields has not yet indicated
his intentions, but it is believed to
be his purpose to conduct an investiga-
tion apart from that already under
taken by the federal boat inspection
service.
Eight separate inquiries into the
cause of the catastrophe have already
been instituted or are in prospect, and
Governor Dunno has been formally
asked to call the legislature in extra
session to probe the disaster.
Latest reports at 2:2O this after
noon, place the number of dead at
1920, but these figures cannot be veri-
fed until the hull Of the Eastlands is
raised and the last of the corpses i'm
prisoned in the wreck is taken out.
United States District Attorney Horne
stated that afternoon that probably
more than 2,700 persons were on the
Eastlands at the time the vessel went
down. He has in his possession stubs
from approximately $500 tickets TAX
en- up at the gangway. No children un-
der five were counted as passengers,
and children between five and twelve
years of age were permitted to board
the vessel two. on one ticket. This
is the basis for his estimate that 2. 700
persons were on board the ill-fated
vessel.

NASHVILLE, TENN,
PLACED IN HANDS
Of A RECEIVER
(By Associated Press.)


NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 27.-Rob-
ert Vaughn, master in chancery for
this district, was today appointed re-
ceived for the City of Nashville. The
appointment was made by Chancellor
Allison, acting under authority con-
ferred by Tennessee's new custer law.
Following the appointment of Vaughn
as received Circuit Judge Matthews
issued a formal order suspending
Mayor Howse and Commissioners Ell.
liott and Andrews.
Today's action comes as the result
of a recent investigation of certain
charges of Irregularities and corrup-
ton in the administration of Nash
ville's affairs. AS result of this
investigation indictments were re-
turned against the city comptroller and
the city treasurer, the records of the
former official mysteriously disappear
ing after the investigation was inaug-
urated.

TRA|NLOAOS Of
CATTLE SHIPPED
WESTERN POINT

Mr.. j. E. Mathis, who has just re-
turned here from a visit of a week in
Arcadia, Fla, was greatly impressed
with the progress and enterprise of
that modern ana model little city
where, by the way, he met quite a
number of Americus men successfully
engaged in various lines of business.
Arcadia seems fully alive to the op-
portunities presented, as, like other
Florida towns, the dire effect of the
European conflict has not fallen 50
heavily as upon those in the cotton
belt. Arcadia is a considerable fruit
and truck shipping point, and rich re-
turns accrue to the enterprising grow
ers of these commodities. Cattle rails
ing has been found a very profitable
industry as well and many trainloads
of Florida cattle, Mr.. Mathis staces
are being shipped to Western grain
centers to be fattened for market.
While this may not be deemed exped-
lent, the buyers pay good prices for
the beeves, and many thousands Of
dollars are brought into that section
of Florida from such source.
