CHIHUAHUA CITY.
HEAVY LOSSES FOR CARRANzA
General Ramos, In Command OF First
Chiefs Forces, Was Slightly
Wounded-More Troops Are on
Way to Hunt Villa.

Chihuahua City, Mex, Sept. 3d.
More than hundred Villa followers
were killed, the bandit leader, Baude-
lilo Tribe, was taken prisoner and
heavy casualties were suffered by Car
rama forces in a fight at Cusihulra-
chic, an important mining center about
fifty miles southwest of Chihuahua
City, according to a message received
by General Trevino from Gen. Matlas
Ramos, who himself was slightly
wounded.
General Ramos had left Chihuahua
City with large force OF Carranza'
troops, with orders to divide his force
and distribute the troops in sucn po-
sitions as to prevent Villa from NOV
ing northward toward the American
expeditionary force.
1t is stated that the garrison at
Cusihuiriachic co-operated with the
forces of Ramos, but whether they
were attacked or were the aggreSsors
Is not known.
Baudelio Tribe, leader Of the band
and Villas chief lieutenant, was the
originator of the idea of cutting OH
the ears Of captured government SOL
diers. Many others of his command
are reported to have been made pris-
Oner.
Troops continue to pour into chi
huahua City from the south to partlcl-
pate in the Villa hunt. Gen. Apolonlo
Trevino's command arrived from Tor
reon during the day and paraded
through the streets. These troops
will be sent into the field at once.

vENlZEL0S FLEES IN BOAT
Former Greek Premier Picked Up at
Sea by Merchant Ship-Will
Head Revolt.

Athens, Sept. q, via London.-M,
venizelos, the former premier, left
Athens at five o'clock Monday morn
ing. The merchant ship Hesperia
picked him up from boat in the open
sea.
1t is said that M. VeniZelos will
first visit Crete and then proceed to
Saloniki.
(The inference from the above dis
patch is that NJ. VeniZelos was forced
to flee from Athens secretly in order
to carry out his plans for a revolu.
ton which would put Greece into the
war on the side of the allies. The
fact that he was obliged to put to sea
in an open boat reveals that the king
still controls Athens, though adher-
ents of Venizelos have seized control
in most of the country except where
the Germans and Bulgarians have
military power.)
Thirty thousand armed Cretans
now control Crete In behalf Of Veni-
zelos. They have turned over all govz
eminent buildings to the leaders Of
the separatist movement.
The complete success Of the revolu-
tionists on the Island Of Crete is said
to have inspired him to immediate
action. 80

GREECE ENTERS WAR.
COUNCIL AND KING AGREE UPON
MILITARY COOPERATION
WITH THE ENTENTE.
LONG STRUGGLE IS ENDED
Allies Win Last OF Doubtful States IN
Historic Diplomatic Controversy
Ruler Acts When Threatened with
Revolt Headed by Former Premier.

London, Sept. 29.-The council or
Greek ministers has decided. In agree
ment with King Constantine, upon mill
tary cooperation with the entente
powers, says Reuter- dispatch re-
ceived on Wednesday from Athens.
A possible excuse for Greek dec
laration of war is seen in an Athens
dispatch reporting that the Greek
steamship Ellen was torpedoed by
German submarine off the coast OF
Sardinia. The crew was saved.
Paris had advices that Greek troops
in Canea, to the number of 1000, nave
joined the revolutionists. Only COLO
mel. few other officers and 70 or the
men remained loyal to the government
The decision of Greece to enter the
war ends one of the most interesting
diplomatic conflicts in world history.
With Italy, Bulgaria and Roumanla
Greece pivoted on the brink OF war
from the first day of the world con-
f1ict.
Now that the country has decldeu
to take the plunge, the last OF the
uncertain powers is out In the OPEN
diplomatic war is ended In victory
for the entente and the way Is open
for finish fight on the battlefields OF
Europe.
Why Greece has acted as 1t mas
may be explained in the following
summary, based on events OF the
last few months as they have reached
this country through the various cen
sored news sources:
1. Insistence of former Premier Ven
izelos. who since the war began mas
insisted that Greece join the entente.
2. Failure of the Bulgarians ana
their allies to keep Bulgaria's promise
not to seize Drama, Sores and kavala.
8. Seizure of the Greek army corps
100000 men) at Kavala and deporta-
ton of the troops to Germany.
The people of Greece have leaned
toward the entente allies since the
beginning of the war. King ConStan-
tine, whose queen is sister OF kaiser
Wilhelm, has been considered prO-Ger-
man, however, and until now mas
baked all efforts to throw Greece into
the war on the side of the entente.
Delay by the king kept Greece from
joining the entente and national al
fairs in the kingdom drifted from bad
to worse until the entente virtually es-
tablished a dictatorship in the coun-
trv and all concessions for Greece'S
entry into the war were withdrawn.
Gradually the entente strengthened
its grip on the country until it had
seized all the means Of communica-
ton and ousted German agents.
Almost simultaneously revolution
stuck up it's head. With the first in
dications of a revolt former Premier
Venizelos declared the king would
have to bow to the popular will or the
people would take the cOuntry's rate
into their own hands.
Crete was seized by the revolution
lists. Venizelos fled from Athens In
an open boat to take charge of pro-
visional government there, and now
the king has decided" to enter the
war. Apparently Venizelos at last has
forced the kings hand, and as victor
in the controversy appears to be the
strongest man in Greece.
