ANOTHER BATTLE ON BORDER
Three American Soldiers Killed in
Night Attack by Mexican Ban
dts Near Brownsville, Tex.

Brownsville, Tex, Oct. 22.-About
seyenty-five Mexicans at o'clock yes
terday morning attacked fifteen
American soldiers at Ojo del Aqua,
small Mexican settlement on the
American side of the river about sixty
miles up the Rio Grande from here.
Three soldiers were killed and eight
wounded and at least five Mexicans
killed in the 40-minute battle.
Mexicans slain in the fight had
white hatbands bearing the words:
.'Viva Villa"
Ojo del Aqua is near the river and
dense brush, which even in daylight
limits the range of vision often to a
few feet, afforded the Mexicans per-
feet cover as they scattered into small
groups and made toward the Mexican
boundary.
The bandits failed apparently in a
purpose to take the American troops
by surprise. A picket reported their
presence in time t. give the soldiers
a chance to take positions. The sol
diers were members of Troop G, Third
cavalry, and Of Company D, signal
corps.

MAY TALK WITH TOXIC SOON

Washington, Oct. 23.-To girdIe the
globe by wireless telephony is the next
ambitious plain in experiments at Ar
lington, following the first wireless
telephone talk with Paris announced
yesterday. Apparatus at the big Ar
1ngton station was being tuned up
yesterday for a talk with Toxic.
Telephone talks with the Orient
without a relay at Honolulu were de-
cIared to be practically certain. The
distance of about 1000 miles, it is
believed, can be bridged eventually,
although it is expected to meet con-
siderable difficulty and require ma
chinery adjustments taking consider
able time.
The telephone company's experts at
Arlington expect, preliminary to the
experiments with Japan and China, to
attempt conversation from Arlington
to Alaska The Cordova station will
be the receiving end.

WOULD USE THE NAVY YARDS
Secretary Daniels FaVors Building of
Navy Vessels by Government
Would Block Big Profits.

Raleigh, n. c., Oct. 21.-What the
navy expects to do toward preventing
private manufacturers from reaping
excessive profits on the expenditure
of hundreds of millions involved in
the administration national defense
program was outlined here today by
Secretary Daniels in a speech at the
North Carolina state fair.
Secretary Daniels said his annual
report to Congress would recommend
legislation to enable the government
to equip itself to build more naval
craft, make its own armor plate and
greatly extend its manufacture OF mu-
nitions.
The government has invested many
millions in navy yards" said the sec
rotary, ''and unless this investment is
utilized for new construction much Of
it is wasted. If the government is
prepared to construct naval craft, pri-
vate ship building companies making
contracts must compete with govern
ment yards. This tends to assure COM
petitive prices and prevent cOmbina-
lions among private corporations to
charge higher prices than conditions
justify.

FLEET BOMBARDS
BULGARIAN COAST
BattIeships in The Aegean Sea
Pound Cities Within Reach
of Their Big Guns.
REJECTS THE CYPRUS OFFER
Constantine WEI Continue to Hold
Neutral Position-SaIonih Troops
Not in Yet

London, Oct. 23.-The Allies fleet in
the Aegean Sea, which has been block
aiding the coast of Bulgaria, has
turned its guns against the country
side and has bombarded it from
Dedeaghatch westward to Porto La
COS. How many vessels were engaged
in the attack or what its exact purpose
was is not known.
While the Teutonic allies and the
Bulgarians continue their operations
against the Serbs and are steadily
gaining ground in the little kingdom,
the Serbs still are contesting tena-
ciousIy their advance Reports from
Nish say the invaders are losing heav-
lily, the losses in killed, wounded and
men taken prisoners having reached
an aggregate of sixty thousand.
"SaIoniki" Troops Not in Yet.
The allied troops landed in Salon
Xxi to lend their aid to the Serbs have
not as yet, as far as is known, come
in contact with the Bulgarian forces.
The promises made to Greece by the
Allies-the island of Cyprus and other
cOnsiderations-for the participation
Of Greece in the war on their side,
have been rejected by the Hellenic
kingdom, at least for the present, and
it will continue its policy of armed
neutrality. Rumania has given no
outward indications of any intention
of changing her present course of
standing aloof.
Greece Fears Allied Strength?
The reply of Greece to the offer,
which reached the foreign office to-
night, is a lengthy one and while it
has not been made public, there is
reason to believe that the Hellenic
kingdom bases its decision not to join
the Allies on the ground that the An
glo-French force landed at SaIoniki is
not, in the Greek governments opin-
ion, strong enough for the task aIlot-
ted it.
The refusal to accept the Allies of
fer was not unexpected, as it has been
stated often in official circles that
both Rumania and Greece were with
holding their assistance until the Al
lies either won a decisive victory OF
proved to the Greeks and Rumanians
their ability to do so, or until the
operations had reached stage which
would assure them that their coun
tries would not be Overrun by the
forces of the central powers or the
Turkish or Balkan allies.

A BIG APPLE YIELD IN RENO
Yaqay Orchard Near Hutchinson Pre-
duced 10000 Bushels This Year
Harvest Now Under Way.

The Edward Yaggy orchard in
Reno county produced 10000 bush
els of apples this season, or enough
to make five apple pies for every man,
woman and child in Kansas. 1t will
take 900 cars to haul the crop to mar
ket. More than 300 men are now at
work picking the apples and they will
not finish until the middle of NoVem-
Der.
The harvest of Jonathans, Grimes
Golden and York Imperials is over
now At present the regiment Of ap-
pie pickers is busy with Winesaps,
gathering what is said to be the pref
test crop of these apples ever grown
in Kansas. Besides these, there are
the Ganos and other winter varieties.
I'VE have $4,000 bushels more of
winter varieties to gather within the
next twenty-five days." remarked Mr..
Yaggy. at will be necessary to get
the crop gathered before a heavy
freeze comes
Picking apples on the Yaggy planta-
ton is vastly different from the way
it used to be done in the back yard
at the old homestead. There it was
matter of climbing the tree, crawl
ing out on the branches and shaking
the fruit to the ground, and then
picking it up.
Mr. Yaggy would fire" a man in a
minute if he caught him shaking fruit
from one of his trees, or taking
chances of breaking limbs by climb
ing into the trees. Those choice
WineSaDs and JonathanS are all hand
picked and are handled as carefully as
any fond mothers darling child. The
slightest bruise on an apple would
probably cause it to spoil, and so
every effort is made to avoid bruising
the fruit.
Twelve cars can be loaded at a time
at the plant, five cars along the load
ing dock, and the others on the
switch, and during the rush there is
| almost a trainload of apples a day
shipped away from the Yaggy sta
| ton.

Rosa, leader of the Texas revolu-
tiOn,' came from the Mexican side Of

berry. As a result, three men were

bers as Luis de Ia Rosa He knew de
Ia Rosa well before the bandit trou-
bles began.

lives for alleged completely in last
nights wrecking of a st. Louis,
Brownsville & Mexico passenger train
on the outskirts of Brownsville, the
killing of three Americans and the
wounding of four others Peace Off
GERS said tonigh< they had clews to
others connected with the robbery.
No secret was made that more Mexi-
cans would be killed if civilian posses
catch them
The first Mexican killed was an IN
identified young man, a passenger on
the wrecked train, who was accused OF
revealing the hiding place of Dr. E S
Mccain, deputy state health officer
here, who took refuge in the layatOry
of the car when the bandits began
firing.
Only the bare facts OF the killing Of
other Mexicans were Obtainable as
the possess were careful not to give
out details.
It is known that one Of the Mexi-
| cans was killed by soldiers and that
so far there have been no encounters
between the soldiers and Mexicans as

Hillman, head of the garment workers
union, explained to the committee
that in the better shops" girls 1e-
ceived s12 a week for the work with
which today's testimony was con-
cerned. Today's witnesses came from
the cheaper shops.
Anna Simsky said that for three
years she had worked from $50

Miss Berg said that she worked

she and thirteen other girls engaged
