ITALIAN FLIERS UNDER
FIRE BOMB BIG CAMP
Air Squadron Drop Explosives on
Austrians from Height of
200 Feet.
BY ANDRE BEAUMONT.

Milan, July IA brilliant feat has
been accomplished by the Italian flight
squadron which attacked the large Aus
trian camp behind Gorilla. dropping
high explosives from a height of 1000
feet which means that the daring avia-
tors exposed themselves to shells aimed
from the Austrian batteries. The OBJ
ject of the raid was attained and the
aviators returned in safety.
The Austrian authorities in the first
six weeks of the war inauGurated such
a reign of terror both in Trentino and
Istria, that out Of 100000 inhabitants
of the two provinces only 100000 are
now left. The rest have either hur-
riedly emigrated to Italy or have been
driven by the Austrians out of their
homes to places further in the interior
of Austria while many have been ar
rested or taken on suspicion to camps
of concentration.
The latest arbitrary act is the arrest
of the mayor of Levico in Trentino, one
of the frontier towns already commanded
by the Italian guns, but which they
carefully avoid bombarding. Gangs Of
hoolisans, encouraged by the Austrians.
tcrroriZed the town and looted the Hotel
Milano because the proprietor is an
Italian.
The mayor complained to the military
authorities and asked for the assistance
of troops but the authorities refused
The mayor expressed his indignation at
this conduct and was promptly arrested
and informed.

SYME THROWS down
GAUNTLET TO Rail WAY
Corporation Counsel Accuses w. R. &
E. with Using Money 1t Has
Not Earned"

Corporation Counsel Conrad H. Syme,
general attorney for the Public Utilities
Commission. yesterday handed down an
opinion in which he charged the Wash
| ington Railway and Electric Company
with "using money which it has not
earned for the purpose of paying divi-
den6s on its common stock"
By this statement Mr.. Syme refers to
the results of a recent investigation con-
Quoted by the commission which showed
that the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company virtually owned the Poto-
mac Electric Power Company and that it
paid dividends on its common railway
stock out of earnings of the electric
power company.
The opinion was rendered in connection
with an ultimatum recently issued by
j the railway company. threatening to file
suit in equity to compel the commission
to authorize a bond issue of s3il.OOO. pro-
vided the commission would not grant
permission for such an issue by July Is.
Upon receipt OF the ultimatum the COM
mission referred the matter to Mr.. Syme
for advice. His opinion reads:
II notice from the correspondence that
the railway company threatens to insti-
tute proceedings to compel the commits
sion to approve the bond issue. Investi-
cations heretofore made by the commits
sion of the affairs of this company dis
close a condition which. in my Judgment
amply justifies the commission in the ac-
ton 1t has taken.
In my opinion, no court. ifndeed 1t
has the power. which I greatly doubt.
will attempt to compel the commission
to authorize the bond issue requested by
the railway company when 1t is ap-
parent that this company is using money
which It has not earned for the purpose
of paying dividends on its common
stock"
This means that the commission will
not yield, and that in all probability tho
railway company will file suit within a
short time.

The bid for quotation lots of Farmers
and Mechanics Bank stock advanced

shares had been sold at go Ten shares OF
Commercial National Bank brought 1872.
Although ten shares of Washington Gas

addition to Orville Wright. Henry Ford
and Hudson AKIN. the names of the
number of the country's most widely
known inventors and patentees are In the
Secretarys mind.
Full Meetings Not Needed.
Mr.. Daniels said yesterday that he
does not expect the work of the boarC

tire membership. A plan which would
be utterly impracticable except in time
of military emergency. In view Of the
large interests and activities of the
members. The Navy Department will
make known its needs largely through
Mr.. Edison, the Secretary said, and the
members of the board will be consult
ed largely in their individual capacities
as experts in specialized lines of inter.
est to the navy. Any Use of the board
in its collective capacity will be infre-
quent and subject to the call Of the chair
man.
The political effect of the organization
OF the new board will be watched with
interest when Congress assemblies and
