son returned from New York early yes
terday and Immediately went to thu
White House and began work on his mex
annual address to Congress.
On the return trip the president was
accompanied by Senator Hughes of New

in New York to purchase parts of her
trousseau.
The president has the main outlines OF

pected to get it in final shape for the
public printer yesterday.
While in New York the president is
understood to have discussed the outlook
for peace in Europe with Colonel 4. M.

ago to investigate the situation for the

His address not only will treat upon
greater preparedness for national de-
Tense, but will call to the attention of
Congress the explosions and fires in
American industrial plants. The presi
dent intends to recommend that the Sher-
man law be amended to include severe
penalties for such restraints of trade.
Any division in the ranks of the Ameri
can citizens whose sympathes with the
warning belligerents may have led to ex
cesses will be emphatically condemned by
the president. In several recent speeches
the president has spoken for America

Over the trench circled a British aero
plane, the sunlight shining through its
canvas wings. The machine was at an
elevation of at least 5000 feet. Would the
men in it throw steel-darts or bombs
Those in the trench were not interested
in either possibility. There is lots of
room outside the ditch, they said.
by looking through this hole, you will
see the British trenches said the officer
guide. But don't look too long. They
have mighty good spy glasses on the
other side
Between the Turkish and British
trenches could be seen a 2o0-yard- wide
patch of sun-dried grass with black dots
here and there-the dots were dead men
awaiting burial which the rigors of mod
ern trench war denied them. Beyond the
yellow patch and it's black dots ran a
low red line-the parapet Of the British
trench. Against this parapet rested more
dead men.
After the distribution of a trench meal,
consisting of the Turkish 'pillaf'-mut-
ton cooked with rice-an artillery control
station was visited. A long communica-
ton trench had to be negotiated before
the station was reached. Again the
overwhelming British gunners tired at
three lone men.
The officer in charge of the station
asked the visitor to observe the fire of
the Turkish batteries. 1t was excellent.
In a trench of the Allies some unusual
activity had been observed. With both
eyes glued to the lower end of a peri
scope glass the visitor watched. The
officer gave distance and command over
the telephone and a minute later a piece
nearby barked. Seconds elapsed and then
the shell exploded in the trench in ques-
ton.
A ride in the hot noon sun brought the
correspondent to a neighborng camp.
Lunch was served there and after that
the clean. white sand of a river bed in
vited rest which ended in seep-and a
sudden awakening by a detonation near
by that seemed to rock the earth. A
British aeroplanist had dropped large
bomb. which exploded about 80 yards
from the sleepers, killing eight horses
and wounding two men.
In the stiffness which followed the eX-
plosion the faint hum of a motor could
be heard. Directly above lowered the
aeroplane. its operator perhaps ready to
let another bomb drop.

The afternoon was made interesting
by visit from a British aeroplane
which dropped three large bombs.
throughout the day the sniping from
both trenches continued. A Turkish
battery on the British left flank added
to the picture by taking a pot shot at
some part of the opponents trenches.
The British pieces on land did not re-
ply for some time, but finally were also
heard from. No British or French men
of-war could be seen near Kaba Tepe,
their former station. A single hospital
ship, painted gray, lay off shore. The

pointed in the direction of Imbros Is

view of the northeast bay Of the island
was to be had. The small sheet Of
water was literally covered with ship
ping Of all sorts, men-of-war, trans
ports, supply ships. every conceivable
sort of watercraft in fact had been
damned into the small bay. outside of
which torpedo-boats and destroyers
were patrolling for submarines.
The Gallipoli campaign plan Of the
Allies, according to officers Of the OF
toman army, was to take the forts
guarding the entrance and lower
reaches of the Dardanelles. For this
purpose landings were made at Kun
kale, Sid-el-Bahr, Ari Bournou and
Kaba Tepe. Essad Pacha is of the
opinion that Of these only Kaba Tepe
was a feint, insisting at the same time
the assertion of the Allies that the
Kun Kale landing had also been a
sham manoeuvre is due to the fact that
the Allied troops could not keep the
ground they had taken there. The
landing at Ari Bournou was intended as
a flank attack upon the Ottoman forces
opposing the Allied troops set ashore
at Sid-el-Bahr. BY occupying the mar
row part of the peninsula between Ari
Bournou and Maidos, the Australians
and New Zealanders now hemmed in at
Ari Bournou were also to be cut off the

Prompt action by the Turkish army
ruined the plan. bringing about what
General d'Amade, commander of the
French contingent, is said to have
feared. 1t is understood in well-in-
formed circles in Constantinople that
General d Amade favored a landing
near Enos on the north shore of the
Gulf of Saros, but that Sir Ian Hamil-
ton was against this.

COMMISSION TAKES
UP REGULATION OF
TWO WATER BOARDS

Lewiston, Me-, Aug. S.-The Public IT'LL
tiles Commission has full control Of the
Lewiston and Auburn water boards, not
withstanding the fact that they are own
ed and controlled by the municipalities
in which they are located. Because of
that fact the Utilities Commission is
now endeavoring to place the boards on
uniform basis and the boards have re-
ceived communications from. the commits
sion for that purpose.
In the future the boards will have to
change their fiscal years to end on June
30, the same date as that Of the other
water companies In the State. In the
past the boards have closed their &C
counts at the same time that the munich
pal governments of the two cities closed
their fiscal year. viz: Feb. %.
The companies have been asked to file
with the commission their rates for do
mestic and commercial purposes. and
such other rates they may have at this
time.

RI. BOY BROWNS
AT 0RRS ISLAND
and FRIEND HAS
NARROW ESCAPE

Orrs Island, Me-, Aug S.-After an ex.
ceedlngly desperate struggle to keep his
head above water until help could reach
him, Earl Hersey. 10, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charies Hersey CT Providence, r. l., who
are summer visitors here. was drowned
near Lowell's Cove late Saturday after
noon, and the life of Hugh johnson. of
about the same age, was saved only by
strenuous efforts after the two boys had
been thrown from a small sailboat In
which they were cruising about the near
by waters. That johnson did not meet
the same fate as Hersey was due to the
prompt action Of Charles e. Gillian, an
islander. who. seeing the plight of the
two boys, set or in a rowboat to aid
them.
The accident happened but short dis
lance from the shore and in sight of
many summer visitors, who were with
out means of lending aid. Both boys. it
Is said, had set out for short sail and
it is thought were thrown into the water
by the sudden capsizing of the craft
Neither OF the boys could swim, and
their loud shrieks when they fell out Of
the boat attracted the attention of those
on shore. Gillian was one of the first to
go to their aid. but not until Hersey had
gone down for the third time. Both bod
les were placed in Gillams boat and
brought ashore. but all attempts to re-
suscitate Hersey failed. johnson was
soon revived by rolling him in a barrel
and was carried to his home.
Saturday evening the body of Hersey
was taken to the cottage occupied by his
parents.
