SERBIA IN DEADLY DANGER
OF BEING OVERWHELMED
Bulgarians Rush Over Border-Teu'
tons Advance Slowly-Little
News of Anglo-French.

London, Wednesday,: Latest re-
ports from the near east indicate that
Serbia is in deadly danger of being
overwhelmed by the armies Of her
neighbor. No less than eight Bulga-
rian forces have crossed into Serbian
territory.
The Austro-German forces are ad-
vancing slowly but steadily, their lat
est claim being that a junction has
been effected to the west of Semen
dria. The railroad between Nish and
Saloniki has been cut by the Bulga-
rians, sweeping over the frontier in
superior numbers. No news has been
received Of the movements Of the
Anglo-French army, although it is
known to have been in action as the
arrival Of French wounded at Salon
Xxi has been reported.
Italy's declaration of war against
Bulgaria increases the hopes of her
allies that she will join in the Balkan
campaign, but what form her assist
ance will take has not been indicated
definitely. Russia now finds herself
alone in not having issued formal
declaration O. war against her former
protege.

TO BUILD 20 DREADNOUGHTS
FOR u. s. NAVY In S YEARS
President Wilson and Secretary Dan.
iels Confer as to Needs of
National Defence.

Fifteen to twenty fighting ships OF
the dreadnought and battle cruiser
type with proportionate number OF
sea-going submarines, coast subma-
rines, scout cruisers, destroyers and
auxiliaries, enough to make new
American fleet, is contemplated by
Secretary Daniels for recommends
ton as a five-year building program
for the navy.
President Wilson and Secretary
Daniels have discussed Informally
the navy's needs and are agreed that
to be adequately prepared for defense
the fleets strength must be almost
doubled in the next five years. An
other conference between the presi-
dent and secretary will be held Fri
day at which time the total number
of battle ships to be asked for prob
ably will be fixed.
The fve-year naval program ~hen
complete would add, in addition to
dreadnoughts and battle cruisers,
nearly one hund7 red submarines.
about seventy destJ oyers and several
scout cruisers and fuel and hospital
ships
An important part of the prog ram,
too, will be a proposal for large
increase in personnel. Appropria-
tions for at least eight thousand ad-
ditional men will be asked for the
first year.
The total cost of the proposed pro-
gram Of the first year is put at nearly
two hundred and forty-eight million
dollars. Just what construction
should be provided for the first year
has not been determined.
It is considered probable that the
construction program for the first
year will exceed that Of succeeding
years that urgent deficiencies may be
filed promptly.
It is understood President Wilson
intends to discuss the naval program
in his annual message and to make
of it an administration measures. 1t
is the purpose of the navy depart
ment to recommend at least thirty
submarines for next year. 1t is plan
ming to bring the total to about one
hundred and seventy in hve years.
It is not known what the plans Of
the navy are for the organization OF
the new fleet, but the general belief
in naval quarters that the plan OF
having a fleet in the Pacific will fig
ure materially in the new program.

RUSSIANS CLAIM SUCCESS;
GERMANS STRONG IN WEST
London Says Teutons Have Been
Heavily Reinforced-British and
French Repulse Attacks.

London reports Wednesday,: Along
the eastern front activity is confined
to the two tips Of the long battle
line. The Germans are pressing their
offensive in TIE northern area, near
Riga, while General Ivanoff claims
several successes for his Russian
army in Galicia.
Reports from the allies on the
western front indicate that the Ger
mans have been reinforced heavily
and are showing a disposition to as
sumo the offensive. Field Marshal
French announced the complete re-
pulse north of Loos of Germans who
made an attack after heavy artillery
preparation. Paris. reports that east
of Rheims the Germans made a fierce
attack on a large scale, occupying
several French trenches.

ASQUITH SUDDENLY Ill;
CARSON QUITS CABINET
Premier's Condition is satisfactory
-E-Attorney General With
holds His Statement.

The condition of Premier Asquith,
who was suddenly taken i'll Tuesday,
was described by his physicians at
noon Wednesday as satisfactory. The
following bulletin was given out:
1.-The prime minister passed salts
factory night. His condition improv-
ed. He will be confined to his room
all day"
Premier Asquith's illness has had
the effect of producing greater air
of calm in political circles than would
otherwise have attended the resigna-
ton Of Attorney General Sir Edward
Carson, and from present appear
ances there will be no more resigna-
tions from the cabinet.
1t is quite likely that the premier's
absence will be extended to nine or
ten days. This enforced cessation Of
time for the reconciliation OF the diff
ferences. 1t seems that Sir Edward
Carson had intended to make public
statement, but the premier's illness
resulted in Sir Edwards deciding to
postpone it until Mr.. Asquiths return
to the House of Commons.
The resignation of Sir Edward Car
son, the first open manifestation OF
the divergence of views known to ex'
ist among the ministers is the result,
according to an authoritative state
ment, not of the controversy over
CONSUMPTION, but Of the conditions OF
affairs in the near east.
Sir Edward himself so far has
made no personal explanation Of his
reasons for resigning, but it is under,
stood that he disapproves Of the pol,
icy Of the war department in the Bal,
kans and the method of conining the
whole national policy to a small lin
ner cabinet"
Sir Edward Carson, prior to the
outbreak Of the war, was the leader
Of the movement against hoEe rule
\ for Ireland, which for time threat
ened civil war in Olster. At that time
he was the Conservative member o:
parliament and threatened in case the
king signed the home rule bill to aic
in setting up a provisional govern
ment in Ulster. He was the first tt
sign the covenant Of resistance tt
home rule and led in the formation
of the Ulster volunteers.

MAY RUN FOR GOVERNOR
Bishopvile Man is Not Positive About

Hon. w A. Stuckey Of Bishopville tc

Interest attaches to the probable
candidacy Of Mr.. Stuckey for COVER.

called Blease faction. He was po'

that he put in for repairs. Some
doubt exists as to the real identity Of
the vessel and officials have asked
the American consul ct Callao for
complete description.
8. Two yachts, the Alameda and
the Ventura, have been lying at Key
West, Fila, for several weeks. Louis
Vail Horn, of New York City, who
owned them originally, is understood
to have sold the Alameda to Gen.
Pasquero. The Ventura was recently
stolen, it is claimed, from Key West
by Mexican pirates" and recovered
by an American coast patrol.
4. An American sailing vessel c:ll-
ed the Two Sisters went aground OF
an island off the Louisiana coast re-
Gently, claiming to have come from
Mexico for repairs. Her status is un-
der investigation.
5. The American ship Zealandia
left Pensacola, Fla, suddenly at
night for Timpoca, Mexico, with q
large stock of provisions on board,
and with number of Germans in
her crew. An American flag painted
on the side of the vessel originally,
had been pointed out. 1t is claimed
the craft flew the German flag at
seat, but this has been denied by the
owners.
'6. An American yacht, Ethel, dis
appeared from Jacksonville, Fla,
within the last few weeks, and has
not been found.
Officials have two theories as to
the meaning of this series of happen
ings. One is that wealthy Mexicans
in the United States are financing
filibustering expeditions, which have
some connection with the raids ID
the vicinity of Brownsville, Texas,
and the other is small boats putting
cut from the United States ere be-
ing met at sea and are armed with
guns Of medium calibre for raidinG
purposes.
The latter theory origir.ted when
a British tank steamer arriving IN
South American port reported that
on her way from Tuxpam, Mexico,
she had been fired upon ct sea by
small boat. The belief exists in
some kuarters in Washington that
base of operations has been establish
ed on an. island near the coast OF
Haiti where guns have been acquired.
Great Britain and France have
maintained patrol of. cruisers IN
the Caribbean, and the SECS are be-
ing secured for suspicious craft.

should. The court expressed its re-
gret that it had to pass judgment on

Cruiser, Scout and Torpedo
Planes-Carry Sin. Guns.
An aerial army no longer Is
dream Of romance. Such an army,
formed in divisions and squadro1s,
with battle aeroplanes, cruiser aero
planes, scouts and torpedo. planes, all
armored heavily and carrying three
inch cannon and rapid-fire guns, is
reality. 1t has been made possible
through the remarkable development
OF military aviation in France.
The French government has per-
mitted the first inspection Of its new
fleet Of aeroplanes. Opportunity was
given to inspect the large and small
types of the new battle planes and
watch them manoeuvring high in the
air, firing round after round from
their three-inch rifles while they
soured, looped and dated about.
The minister Of war, Alexander
Millerand, assigned two military ex-
perts of the staff of the aviation ser
vice-Capt. de Lafargue and Lieut..

ents first to one point, the name OF
| which may not be mentioned, where
the new fleet Of battle craft had been
assembled, and later the Aviation
School at B., where one hundred
| military aviators were learning to
navigate the new war craft.
The aviation field, is vast enclo-
sure. Entering the field a monster
battle plane loomed up thirty feet
| high, with a number OF planes
stretching one hundred and thirty
| feet across. Further back was rang
ed the fleet Of battle cruisers and
scout planes. They were formed like
battalion, twenty planes in a row
across the front and ten deep.T Their
huge wings made a front half a mile
wide.
The battle plane and all the cruis-
ers were armed heavily. Each car
ried both the three-inch cannon and
the rapid-fire gun.
| The huge battle plane was the
chief centre Of attention. The engi'
neer who constructed it explained the
details. The officers said this was
the first actual realization Of the bat,
tie plane, other aerial dreadncughts
having proved impractical. This mon.
ster actually flew, carrying a crew
OF twelve men, with two cannon or
the wings throwing three-inch stee
projectiles.

NO ARMS TO MEXICO
Carranza Alone is Allowed Munitions
From This Country.

President Wilson Wednesday de-

and arms and ammunition to Mexico.
President Wilson signed a supple
mentary order, however, which ex-
cepts Gen. CarranZa's government
from the embargo and permits muni-
tions to go through to him unham-
pered. The prohibition applies to the
factions opposed to the government
which the United States has recog-
niZed.
The presidents proclamation is
based upon the authority conferred
by congress in 1912 and follows
closely the terms Of President Tatt's
proclamation issued when the revolu-
ton was on against Madero.
