AFTERMATH OF THE
STORM ALONG GULF
Buildings Wrecked and Prop

Of Life Is Reported.
RAINS ARE ToRRENTIAL

Laredo, Tex, Aug. l9.-Consider-
able property damage and great in
convenience to troops in the various
national guardsmen camps in the La
redo district resulted from a tropical
storm which ragged here from E o'clock
last night until 4 o'clock this morn
ing. For several hours Laredo was
completely cut off from wire COM
munication with the outside world.
Practically every tent of the 5000
soldiers here was blown down, and
the men were exposed to torrential
rains for hours.
In Laredo the principal damage
was confined to blowing down poles,
trees, fences, and the destruction of
small buildings. The maximum
velocity of the wind was sixty miles
an hour. The storm abated as sud
denly as it struck this district.
Corpus Christi Shaken Up.
Corpus Christi, Tex, Aug. l9-The
Beach hotel, on the north beach Sec
ton of the city, is probably the worst
damaged building here. Part of the
roof was blown away and the founda-
tions shaken. All guests were re-
moved before the storm reached its
height. Roofs have been torn off
many buildings in the business dis
trict. High seas running yesterday
and last night came up in the streets,
but drained today.
A number of persons caught out
in the bay here, as we'll as other sec
tons, were reported drowned, but nc

Senator Lodge Is
Campaigning for
Hughes and Ticket

Nantasket, Mass. Aug. 20.-Sena-
tor Henry Cabot Lodge, making his
opening speech Of the presidential
campaign at an outing of the republi-
can club of Dorchester yesterday,
said in part: ~-'
Behind a great barrier of words
the president has sheltered himself,
surrounded by &C loud OF phrases; big
wods with no meaning. Fl '..'
after the awful disaster of the
Lusitania, the president used the
memorable phrase, too proud to
fight The country responded the
next morning 1t was not friendly
response.
so he changed and we had a great
note on strict accountability and il
remains a phrase. There never has
been a reparation or even an apology
for the Americans drowned, or killed
on the Lustania.
"The same phrase was posted on
the consulate OF Mexico not long ago
that if any injury came to Ameri-
cans, Mexico would be held strictly
accountable. Americans have been
killed and every outrage committed,
and Strictly accountable, still remains
the false and empty phrase.
Another cry, Kept US out Of war.
1t is not easy to get into war when
nobody wants to go to war with you"
Senator Lodge predicted that Mas
sachusetts would give Hughes a
larger plurality than the plurality OF
the combined Taft and Roosevelt vote
in 1912. es

SHERMAN KEEPS UP
FIGHT ON G0MPERS
Reed to Support Of Labor
Leader, Asserting Hs II q
Conservative Man.
COMMIT NO UNLAWFUL ACT

Washington, Aug. 20. Senator
Sherman's recent attack upon Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation Of Labor, was answered
yesterday by Senator Reed of Mis-
souri,, who declared it unfortunate
that any senators should have reAec-
ted upon Mr.. Gompers who was
never known to commit an unlawful
act and is recognized sa the most
conservative leader of labor"
Referring to the mention of the Nc
Namara dynamiters by Senator Sher-
man, Mr.. Reed asserted they did not
represent organized labor and that no
decent man in this country would
make such a charge" Only the most
narrow and most prejudiced mind
would attribute the individual acts Of
the McNamaras as an act Of an or
ganized body of men," Senator Reed
said. 'r
Replying to Senator Reed Senator
Sherman referred to Gomper's offer
to meet him in public debate and said
that if the labor leader could be elect
ed to the senate from any state in the
Union he would debate with him.
IF the laws Of dueling are still in
force" said Senator Sherman, II
would say to Mr.. Gompers that | do
not fight with anybody except some
one of my own class"
The Illinois senator further scored
Mr.. Gompers for alleged political &C.
tivity, insisting he was a parasite
upon the body Of labor, a creeping
poison ivy on the whole structure oi
industry" ........ --.

BIDS FOR Big SHIPS

Submit Their Figures on
Construction.
BATTLE CRUISERS NEXT

Washington, Aug, 20.--Next Tues.
day President wilson will sign the
naval appropriation bill carrying the
largest building program ever pro-
jeetsd for the country. On the fol-
lowing day bids for the four battle
ships the scout cruisers, submarines,
destfoycrs and all other craft author
ized, except the four battle cruisers
and the ammunition ship, will be re-
questcd from private bidders, to be
opened October 49, Inquiries as to
the type Of ship each builder desires
TO bid on were sent out today.
II now Is expected that the battle
cruiser plans will be ready for ad-
vettisement by October /. The en-
tire 1917 program probably will be
under contract before July | next, and
only the shortage Of skilled labor will
delay construction, as the structural
steel companies already have given
assurances that prompt deliveries of
materials can be made.
Daniels to Equip Yards.
The bill authorizes Secretary Dam
icls to equip several additional navy
yards for government construction,
So,000,000 having been appropriated
for that purpose. No decision as to
which yards shall be equipped first
will be reached until the offers of pri-
vate builders have been received and
studied. Congress has designated,
however, the yards at which capital
construction may be undertaken,
Puget sound, Norfolk and Philadel-
phia being among those selected for
that purpose. .
The present attitude of the depart.
ment is that because of the shortage
Of skilled labor, the quickest results
can be obtained through giving pri-
vate plants as much of the new work
as they will take. 1t is also pointed
out that the government shipping bill
authorizes construction of CONNER
cial ships in navy yards, and this may
prove to be factor in distributing the
huge amount Of new construction con-
templated in the navy and shipping
bills.

FUNSTON FAVORS
WITHDRAWAL OF
men IN MEXICO
Recommendation From General
on Border to Washington
Says This Action Ap-
pears Desirable.
OFFICIALS OF SAME VIEW
Seems Little Doubt That the
Action Will Soon Be
Arranged.
MExIcANs ARE JUBILANT

Washington, Aug. 20.---A recon-
mendation from General Funston
that the Aemrican troops be with
drawn from Mexico was contained in
a recent report on the military sitv-
alton made at the request of the War
department, and designed for use OF
the joint commission which will dis
cuss border problems. State depart
ment officials do not attempt to dis
guise their regret over premature
publication of General Funston's con-
clusions, but they indicated today
that it would not cause any alteration
In plans.
officials realized today, it is under
stood, the pressing matter for discus
sion by the commission from Mex
ico's viewpoint will be the question
of withdrawal of General Pershing s
expeditionary force.
Ask Views Of Funston.
In order to furnish the American
commissioners with full information
General Funston was asked to ex.
press his views on the military
aspects of the expedition. There is
every indication that the commission
ers, and later the administration, were
expected to abide by the recon-
mendations of the chief military ad.
wiser on border matters.
Publication of the fact that Gen
eral Funston believes it wise to with.
draw the troops may hamper the
American commissioners, some Off.
cials think, in obtaining whatever
guarantees they may ask of the Mex.
ican government as to security of the
border from bandit raids. 1t is be-
lieved the administration is fully pre-.
pared to arrange for the recall oi
General Pershing's forces, since both
State and War department officials
are understood to share the views ex
pressed in General Funston's report
Look for Withdrawal.
There can be little doubt, it is nov
said, that the withdrawal will b,
promptly agreed to when the com
mission meets, the conferees '-ther
turning their attention. TO the, draft
ing of protocol to cover futur,
border operations, investigation o
the causes OF bandit raids, and sucf
other matters as they may wish tc
take up.
Ell Paso, Tex, Aug. 20.-Mex
ican reports in )uarez today indi
Gated that no steps have been taker
by General Pershing's expedition
looking toward a general Withdrawal
from Mexico. The American expedi
ton lies stretched out in compac
line from Columbus, N. NJ, to E
Vale, Chihuahua, a distance of abou
200 miles, the field headquarters beini
maintained at Colonia Dublan, III
miles south of Columbus.
Reports that General Funston hat
recommended the withdrawal wer,
received with the greatest enthusiasm
in Juarez. General Gabriel Gavira
Inspector general of the Carranz;
armies, and General Francisco Con
zales, commandant, said that the re
ports, if true, will tend to eliminate
the greatest cloud upon the Mexican
horizon.
