DOES NOT SEEK PRESIDENCY
CHICAGO MAYOR SPENDsDAY III
MINNEAPOLIS
Thompson Declares Sunday Lid VIII
Stay On While the Law Stands
Favors Enforcement

Minneapolis, Oct 19.-William Hale
Thompson, mayor Of Chicago, former
"coW-puncher", more recently banker
and real estate operator, athlete and
advocate of the strenuous life, spent
a strenuous day in Minneapolis with
his party which is returning from a
trip to the San Francisco exposition4
A breakfast at the Athletic club
with Mayor Nye as host, an automo-
bile ride in the forenoon, luncheon
and a speech at the University clubs
an afternoon spent at the Minneapo1
lis Art Institute, the Walker gallery
and a game Of water polo, dinner at
the Athletic club and speeches there5
after, gave the former football player
and "broncho-buster" as varied a Il
hours entertainment as he has parti1
cipated in for some time, as he adj
mitted just before his special train
left at 1880 p. m.
FaVors Law Enforcement.
The dinner was the more formal of
the varied events Of the day. Mayor
Thompson took occasion in his rel
marks on this occasion to elaborate
somewhat on his previous statements
regarding the Chicago Sunday closing
order which has occasioned so much
comment.
q have no set ideas on the liquor
question or prohibition" he said
when I ordered the saloons to close
on the Sabbath day I had only one
feeling, that I had held up my right.
hand and had taken an oath to exc.
cute the laws.
1T seems that the matter will be-
come a political issue with the Re!
publicars standing for law-enforce4;
ment and the Democrats favoring al
lax enforcement. 1t will be extreme1
ly interesting to watch the outcomel
and to see if we who favor law en-,
forcement can be returned to office, III
we should seek to be, with the same
pluralities we secured before"
81 am not candidate for presi-,
dent" is the answer he made as he
has on numerous previous occasions.

VICTIMS BODIES ARE LOST
Car Breaks up When Raised From
Creek Into Which 1t Had Fallen,
Near Randolph, Kansas.

Randolph, Kan, Oct. 19-The exact
number Of dead in the wreck Of the
Union Pacific motor train at the Fancy
Creek bridge here may never be
known. When the car which plunged
head first into the creek was raised,
the front end dropped out, carrying
into the flooded stream those bodies
which the rescuers had been unable to
reach.
All efforts to find the bodies in the
racing stream had failed, but officials
estimated that four and possibly six
persons we're drowned in addition to
the IL whose bodies were recovered
Loss Adds To Tragedy.
The loss Of the bodies which are
known to have been in the end of the
car added to the tragedy which cost
probably Is to II lives and injured
almost 40 persons, some perhaps fat
ally.
In the dive into the mud and rock
at the bottom of the stream where the
car carrying IS passengers plunged
when the bridge abatement gave way
the front end was demolished.
In the 80 hours that the end of the
car remained submerged in the stream,
the swift flood waters lodged sand and
mud in and about it until, when the
car was lifted, the entire front end
remained fast in the hole 1t had dug.

NEW LEADER IN DARDANELLES
Major General Monro Appointed to
Command British Forces-Gen-
eral Hamilton Recalled.

London, Oct 19.-Major General
Charles Carmichael Monro has been
appointed to command the DardanelIes
expedition in succession to General
Sir ian Hamilton, who is returning to
England to make report. This an.
nouncement is made by the war office.
Pending General Monro's arrival at
Gallipoli, Major General William Rid
del Birdwood will temporarily COM
mand the troops.
General Sir Ian Hamilton, who has
had command of the British troops
from the time Of their first landing in
April, has in his reports to the war
office chronicled very heavy losses to
his forces with comparatively small
gains. The result Of this has been to
arouse discussion as to whether the
operations in the Dardanelles were
progressing in way to warrant their
continuation.

the only cruiser remaining. Nearly
the whole Of the Turkish merchant

Incidentally, the agreement of Villa

Washington, Oct. ia national
defense program that probably means
an expenditure on the army and navy
Of upwards of billion dollars in the
next six years will be laid before the
people by President Wilson Nov. 4,
when he goes to New York to make
his first public address since the scope
of the policy upon which his admins
tration has embarked became known.
He will speak before the Manhattan
club of New York on national defense
and the reasons which have impelled
him to approve plans to about double
the navy and quadruple the trained
fighting forces ashore within q few
years.
Grand Total, $842,oo0,o00
The grand total expenditure &C
tually planned would be $842,000,O00.
According to plans laid out by ex-
perts OF the navy and war depart
ments, these expenditures would pro-
duce by 1925 a first line of dread
noughts and battle cruisers numbering
43; a feet Of coast defense subma-
rines that would fringe the Atlantic
and Pacific coasts with an almost
solid line of defense against attack;
fleet of nearly IT'S destroyers and
squadrons of huge sea-going, fleet sub
marines to operate with the battle
squadrons at great distance from
shore.
For the army there would be at the
end of six years a trained force of
100000 men, including a regular
army of 100000 and the proposed con-
tinental army and reserves; a ring of
fully manned coast defenses, equipped
with the largest and most powerful
guns vet built and a vast reserve of
field guns, machine guns, howitzers
and big gun ammunition.

Paris, Oct. 19.-Development Of ire
mendous Teutonic pressure to the
goutheastward, rather than due south,
through Serbia and Semendria, is
arousing the suspicious here that the
Austro-German tacticians are aiming
now to get through by the shortest
possible route to friendly Bulgarian
territory.
The drive across Serbia in this di-
rection, would be but Is or 30 miles
at the narrowest point Of Serb terri
tory. Thence after crossing the
Timok river, presumably unopposed,
there would be an overland march Of
about SIS miles to the nearest railroad
connection with Constantinople.
Serbs Strongly Reinforced.
There is heavy fighting in the Ris-
tovac-Vranya district of Serbia. Ac-
cording to reliable news from Saloni-
Xxi, the Serbians have been strongly re
inforced. Beyond Vranya telegraphic
communication is interrupted.
Report has it that the Allies already
have occupied the important stragetlc
town of Strumitza on the extreme
southwestern part OF Bulgaria, across
the Greek border and that landing
has been made by them in Turkey at
Enos, in the mouth Of the Martha
river. short distance southeast Of
the Bulgarian port OF Dedeagahatch.
While Enos is shallow water port
and it's enyirons are unhealthy owing
to the marshy country surrounding the
city the Martha river is navigable at
this season of the year by barges as
far as Adrianople.
SubbornIy Oppose Teutons.
All along the lire the Serbians and
their Montenegrin neighbors, who also
are being attacked, are Offering very
stubborn resistance to both Austro-
Germans and Bulgarians, and while
they have given up a number Of towns
and positions, they have not yet reach
cd the line on which they expect to
make their stand.
The Bulgarians, so far as can be
learned, made progress only in the
Zlotokopska valley, near the River
Morava, north Of the town of Vranya,
where they blew up a bridge. There
is no confirmation, however, Of the re-
port that they cut the railway in this
district. the bridge which they de-
etroyed being a small wooden one
near the railway The Bulgarian force
which penetrated the valley is not a
large one.
Surprise for Central Powers.
The Italians, according to the lat.
est reports, will not send a contingent
to the Balkans, but cooperation OF
their navy in the Aegean, where an
Allied fleet has already gathered, is
looked for
The point at which the Russians will
strike has not yet been disclosed. The
expectation is, however, that the AL
lies have a surprise for the central
powers and that steps are being taken
to bring Turkey to her knees before
assistance can reach her.
