London.-Almost lao lives were lost
in the sinking of the African liner
Falaba and the British steamship
Aguila, from Liverpool for Lisbon, by
German submarines, and it is charged
by the British that crews and passen-
gers had insufficient time to escape
when the vessels were attacked.
The Falaba, which was torpedoed in
st. Georges Channel, carried a crew
of ninety and Isl passengers. Eighty
six of the passengers were saved.
Four passengers are reported to have
been killed and sixty-one are missing.
Forty-three of the crew are missing
and four were killed.
The Aguila was struck off the Penn
brokeshire oast about the time the
Falaba was sunk. The steamship had
a crew of forty-two and three passen-
gers, and of these twenty-three of the
crew and all the passengers were
lost.
Survivors of both vessels say the
Germans turned their guns on the ID
tured ships and thereby added to the
loss of life by shell fire.
In both cases, on sighting the sub
marine, the Captain tried to escape by
putting on all speed possible, but the
underwater craft overlook the steam
ers, showing that Germany now has
some of her most modern submarines
engaged in the blockade operations
against England.
1t was learned that one of the pas
sengers of the Falaba was an Ameri-
can engineer, Leon Chester Thrasher,
who was returning to the Gold Coast,
where he was employed by the Boom
AISLE Mines Company. He had been
in London for a few weeks.

HEAVY DAMAGE AT MEMEL.

The town and provincial authorities
at Mcneil are bringing order out Of
the chaos wrought by the Russians.
1t is impossible to estimate the proper.
ty damage and loss. The country from
Memel eastward and northward to the
Russian border has been devastated.
The presence of a large body of sol
diers at Memel and several war YES
sells in the harbor has done much to
reassure the people that the Russians
will not trouble them again, but in
many quarters the anxiety is still very
keen. The worry ceased somewhat
with the burial Of III Russians who
were killed when the Germans moved
in.
Fugitives travelling away from the
Russian border with wagons loaded to

VILLAS FORCES DEFEATED.

Washington.-Reports received at
the State Department and at the Car
rama agency here indicate that Villa
forces were defeated in at least the
early stages of the battle for posses
sion of Matamoras.
The Carranza agency's despatch
stated that the villistas lost 900 men
in their attacks on the trenches of
the Carranza troops defending the
city. A large number OF the Villa
troops abandoned their camp after
this fighting, while their wounded fed
to the American side. The Carranza
forces suffered only very slight losses,
not having been required to move
from the protection of the trenches
That there has been severe fighting
outside Matamoras was shown by re-
ports received at Red Cross h~eadquar-
tiers. Four hundred wounded Mexi-
cans were brought across the interna-
tionaI bridge into Brownsville. Tex,
and were cared for there.

Won DER eoLTz CONFIDENT.

London.-A correspondent at Blu

terview with Gen. Won der Goltz, the
Kaiser's military adviser to the Sui
tan, in which he says that he left Con-
stantinople to show how little distur-
bed he was yer the Allies attack on
The Dardanelles.
Gen. o der Goltz added that he
was convinced from the first that the
attack would not be successful and
after the first attempt by the Allied
feet to force The Dardanelles forts he
was even more optimistic.
Gen. Won der Goltz intends to enter
the field himself at the head of the
Turks if need arises. There is sufi-
cient ammunition, he said for the Tur-
kish troops already modified, and sup
plies. If it were possible to transport
additional ammunition another half
million men could be modified.

'JITNEYS' SWEEP
The COUNTRY
Providence Latest City to Wei
come Them
STREET CARS THREATENED
Declare They Cannot Continue to Run
the Road II Conditions Continue az
They Are-First Jitney Appeared
Feb. $500 Now Running.

Providence, r. IA most extraor-
binary situation has arisen in Provf-
dence because Of the development Of
the jitney service which was opened
with a single automobile on February
s, and now includes more than 500
cars operated along the established
routes of the Rhode Island Co, n
of the subsidiary properties of the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
and which is threatened with discon-
~tinuance.
So well ~patroniZed are the jitneys
that the street cars run with practical
ly empty seats, a condition which
prompted the trustees recently ap-
pointed by the Federal Court to man
age the traction company to file a
protest with the city council in which
they claim that the unfair competition,
if continued, means that they cannot
continue to operate the lines. as moth
ing can be earned on the capital stock
and no dividends can be paid during
the fiscal year.
The company is operating under an
exclusive franchise in return for which
it recently built a million dollar tun-
mel and assumed obligations to pay
the city $230,000 annually, to also pay
$45, 900 annually on account Of new
highways now being built at a cost
of SO, ZOO, 900, to rebuild its tracks and
replace old cars with modern ones,
and in addition to the 100000 fran
chise tax paid to the state contribute
$10S 900 to Providence as taxes IN
real and tangible property.
In addition to these obligations there
are rent and fixed charged which last
year reduced the earnings to less than
$34S 900 and no dividends were paid
upon the $22, 900, 900 worth of heavily
watered securities unloaded upon the
New Haven. 1t was estimated that
the earnings this yea would be but
s117, 900, but from present indications
there will be none at all, as the jitneys
are doing a business equal to $500 900
a year with every prospect that they
will exceed these figures.
The trustees are calling for a jit-
ney regulation which viii give them a
fair chance. They assert that the jit-
neys must be brought under regula-
tions that will give the company =
living show, or the franchise must be
amended to relieve it of the greater
part of its burden else the service
must be discontinued.
Public sentiment, based upon long
endured grievances which failed to
be recognized, is with the ive-cent
jitney service which is backed by an
organization Of automobile owners
The city disputes that the exclusion
franchise excludes the jitney.

Rathburn Act AssaiIed.

Already two very interesting legal
questions have arisen in connection
with Senator Rathburn's bill passed
early in the session and approved by
the Governor, which seeks to abolish
dover and curtesy in real estate.
One of the questions is as to wheth-
er the law is constitutional and the
other is as to whether the abolishing
of dover and curtesy applies in the
case of existing marriages or only in
the case of future marriages.
Senator Rathburn's law, which does
not go into effect until July 4. pro-
vides in section seven as follows:
"The estates and interests of dover,
and right of dover and curtesy be and
the same are abolished hereby, pro-
vided, however, that nothing in this
act shall affect any of such estates
or interests, which may have become
vested heretofore"
The title of the act reads as follows:
"An act amendatory of and supplement
tai to an act entitled An act directing
the descent of real estates, approved
April Is, 1896"
The Constitutional question raised
is as to whether the title is sufficiently
comprehensive as to include the aboli-
ton of dover and courtesy in view of
the fact that the State Constitution
says that every law shall be express
ed in the title" Already lawyers are
discussing the matter, and some law
yers who are regarded as excellent au-
thorities hold that the title is defec-
tive and that therefore the law is In
constitutional.
OF course, these legal questions
have not yet gotten into the courts
because the law is not yet in oper-
alton.
