BANDITS TAKE MADEIRA
Largest Town West of chihuahua
Held by Villa Forces

Headquarters Punitive Expedition
in Mexico, Oct. -(Wireless to Co.
lumbus, N. M.).-Villa bandits under
Julio Acosta have occupied MADEIRA,
the largest town west of Chihuahua,
according to reports at headquarters
today. a lumber plant valued at $2,
600. 900 and owned by a British corpor-
alton, is located there. Months ago
Villa threatened to burn this mill.
The bandits are supposed to have oc
cupied the town without opposition
from the Carranzistas. MADEIRA is d
division point on the Mexico North
western railway.
A small Villista band is said to be
moving toward Galena, a village close
to the American line of communica-
tions and there are renewed rumors
that Villa has decided to attack the
punitive expedition The only Car
rama forces that bar his way north
ward are small garrisons at Ell Valle
and Namiquipa. Villa himself is re-
ported at Guerrero with $500 men,
many of whom are unarmed and poor
ly equipped.

SHIP NOT SUNK :?
Strong Probability Kingston
Was Not TOrpedOed.
III 1t Was, Survivors Would
Have Been Found.

New York, Oct. 10.-Belief that only
five ships We're sunk in the German
submarine raid off Nantucket grew in
shipping circles here today, as vague
and contradictory reports concerning
the crew of the steamer Kingston We're
received. Thirty-six hours having
elapsed since the Kingston was sup
posed to have been sunk without any
trace of her crew, steamship meli We're
inclined to believe the name of the
vessel may have been misread by
wireless operators and that no such
vessel as the Kingston was ATTACKED.
Within the last twelve hours an
argument has arisen as to whether
the name of the ship supposed to have
been sunk was the Kingston or King
stonian. Captain E. l.. Yates, of the
rescued the crew of the British
steamer Strathdene, said he believed
the name of the Christian Knudsen
had been misread Kingston in some
way when reports We're transmitted by
wireless.
IL Destroyers Secured the Seas.
1t was also pointed out that all of
the steamers were sunk within a COM
.paratiyely small radius. The crews of
the five ships known to have gone
sd0Nn We're easily and speedily found
by united States destroyers. In view
of the care the German Submersible
was evidently taking to conform to all
requirements of International laws in
giving the crews ample time to take to
their small boats, it is also pointed out
that 1T hardly seems reasonable that
the crew of one ship could possibly be
overlooked by the rescue warships
Seventeen destroyers were in the
waters off Nantucket at one time and
if ship named the Kingston was
sunk, some trace of her crew or
wreckage of some sort would surely
have been found. To further bear out
the theory that the reporting of the
Kingston is most likely an error, it
was pointed out, that three additional
ships were reported as sunk in wire
less messages to all New England
points early yesterday. The names of
these vessels were never learned, and
it is now accepted that the reports
were untrIR

A. P.'S BIG FEAT
One Operator Flashes Series Game
Over $4,000 Miles From Brooklyn.

New York, Oct. 10.-An unprece-
mission of news was accomp plished
by the traffic department of the Asso-
ciated Press Monday when one opera
tor, sitting in the stand at Boston, was
enabled to flash over $4,000 miles Of
leased wire the story of how the Bos-
ton Americans beat the Brooklyn Ma
tionals in the second game of the
worlds baseball series
Taking dictation from the Asso-
ciated Press representatives who were
covering the game, this operator, ]. A
Bates, thru the telegraphic connec-
tlons arranged for the service, was
able to send the story to 500 Asso-
ciated Press offices and newspapers
in the United States, tick for tick into
each office simultaneously, as far west
as San Francisco, as far north as Du-
luth and as far south as New Orleans
The operator sent the story over
this $4,000 mile circuit continuously
for two and half hours and at the
instant McNally crossed the home
plate with the winning run in the
fourteenth inning, the flash Boston
wins had gone the length and
breadth of the country. Heretofore,
in reporting worlds series games, the
news has been relayed at Chicago and
other points. The experiment Monday
of making a complete transcontinentad
connection was reported entirely suc-
cessful.
Five thousand additional miles IF
circuit received the story thru relays,
but this was by reason of news con-
6itions. The $4,000 mile circuit, how
ever. stands as 4 record in telegraph
history.

USE PAPER FOR COTTON
Austria Finds Substitute for Making
Cloth.

Vienna, Oct. 10.-Paper in the place
of cotton has proved of extraordinary
value in solving one of Austria Hun
garys greatest economic problems, ac-
cording to Arthur kuffler, president
of the government organization con-
trolling cotton consumption.
Herr Kuffler explained today to the
correspondent of the Associated Press
how Austria-Hungary has met the sit
uation caused by the cutting off of
American cotton thru the British
blockade by exhibiting a vast assort-
ment of fabrics made from paper
which he said was taking the place
of cotton.

the bride with all his worldly goods
be eliminated.
A committee will recommend that
the commandments be shortened by
the omission of the reason for their
observance. The recommendation will
be based on the fact that the reasons
were peculiar to the life of the Israel
ties and that changed modern ways
have robbed the arguments of much
of their weight.
Revise Lords Prayer.
The committee on revising the
Lords prayer will recommend the
elimination of the words, For Thine
is the kingdom and the power and the
glory forever" In requesting the
omission the committee will say the
words constitute a part of the DoX-
ology added by early translators and
that they are not in the original text
of Holy Scripture. The omission
would make the prayer identical with
the Roman Catholic version. The
same committee will probably ask the
elimination from the Book of Common
Prayers the prayers for Jews, infidels
and Turks" The proposal is based on
the ground that it is unwarranted to
class the Jews with the others.

COLDSTEIN DEFENDS
RETENTION OF FEES
Didn't Serve Banking Superin-
tendent in Person, He Says.

Justice Benedict's criticism of Louis
Goldstein, Assistant District Attorney
Of Kings County, uttered recently in
connection with his decision authoriz-
ing the payment Of five per cent divi-
dend to depositors Of the Union Bank,
provoked a reply from Mr.. Goldstein
yesterday.
"No services were performed by me
for which compensation was made BY
the superintendent which had any re-
lation to my duties as Assistant Dis
trict Attorney. All payments were
when became Assistant District
Attorney, employed an Office staff,
which performed the counsel work,
Prior TO my appointment ! was counsel
for the Banking Department.
"The expenses of maintaining the
force to care for that work included
compensation of lawyers and their
office staff, rent, telephone charges and
incidentals.
Those expenses aggregated con-
siderably more than any sum | re-
ceived as counsel, the highest amount
paid me in any month being $500. The
payments compare favorably with those
to other counsel. Those payments
were not salary, and ! drew no salary
as such counsel. Such payments were
on account of legal services 70 the
banking superintendent as his counsel;
"Those services were not performed
by me personally. At no time since

Factories Won't Be Allowed on
Fifth Avenue Above Twenty.
third Street.

Some of the more important features
of the new zone plans for building re-
strictions in the city were explained
yesterday by members of the Com
mission on Building Districts and Re-
strictions. One Of the results of the
plans in Manhattan will be to exclude
factories, garages and loft buildings
for factory purposes generally above
Twenty-third Street, except near the
waterfront In recent years loft fac
tories particularly have been creeping
into Fifth Avenue buildings and ada
cent sections as far as Thirty-fourth
Street.
Factories and garages will be per-
mitted on the West Side waterfront as
far uptown as Seventeen Street and
all the way up the East Side waterfront
in Manhattan. A garage. as described
under the plan, refers to large es-
tablishment of that kind where at least
more than five cars are kept It does
not restrict the location Of show rooms
in these districts.
In the other boroughs the waterfront
is unrestricted. On the lower East
Side most Of the streets are restricted
against factories and garages. There
are twenty blocks in this district re-
stricted entirely to residential pur-
poses.
Restrictions on Business.
The residential districts throughout
the city will become more and more
restricted under the plans. In some
districts, such as Riverdale and parts
of Flatbush. for example, il was said
that the residents would eventually
have to walk more than a mile to the
nearest drug store. All kinds of busi-
ness have been excluded from these sec
tions, and at the request Of residents.
The character of the districts may
be changed on application of a certain
per cent of the property owners in any
one district to the Board of Estimate.
If 20 per cent of the property owners
appear before the board, it would take
that unanimous consent TO change the
district from residential to business, or
vice versa. II so per cent Of the prop
erty owners appear the Board Of Esti-
mate would have to act on the matter

Prudential Ignores State
Industrial Commissions
Effort to Settle Fight.
TO PUT CASE BEFORE
LABOR DEPARTMENT
Big Meeting in Newark Planned
as the Strength of the New
Union Grows.

Mediation between the Prudential
Insurance Company and its striking
agents got nowhere yesterday. The
company did not send representa-
tives TO the conference in the Office of
Colonel NJ. J. Reagan. mediator for
the State Industrial Commission.
1t was planned to hear both sides OF
the question and see IL some middle
ground could be reached. The COM
pany ignored the invitation to be pres
ent, however. and remains defiant.
George l.. Record has been appointed
counsel for the strikers, and will file
written statement Of the agents
case with the Department of Labor.
Mr.. Record has been empowered by
the Insurance Mems international Pro-
tective Association to confer with the
Prudential Company when he deems it
advisable, but it is unlikely, said the
leaders of the strike. any attempt to
deal with the company will be made
for few days.
Mass Meeting Called.
President Lumpkin, of the strikers.
has called a mass meeting OF the East
ern agents to be held in the New Audi
torium. Broad and George Streets.
Newark. Saturday evening. The chief
counsel for the strikers will outline
clearly the grievances of the agents,
and speakers of national reputation
will address the meeting.
We're going to invade the home
town of the company" said Mr.. Lump
kin, "and things ought to warm up.
Agents and their wives from Greater
New York and from New Jersey in the
vicinity of the home Office are going
to be present. We also expect delega-
tions from Philadelphia. Reading,
Wilmington and many smaller towns"
Strike Wave Spreads.
The strike idea is spreading in all
directions. according to Mr.. Lumpkin.
A telegram was received from Port
land. Me. yesterday, saying agents
there were considering joining
the protest. and asking for instruc-
tions. This was taken as an indica-
tion of added strength, for the young
union is not represented north of New
York as yet.
A telegram from c. o. Pratt said the
tie-up in Philadelphia would soon be
complete, and that Reading was also
fast Joining. Labor unions in the lat
ter place have pledged support. All
the Offices of the company in New York
are being picketed, but the agents
have been instructed there is to be
no violence. 1t was reported new men
in the employ of the Prudential are
having trouble making collections
from members Of labor unions, and
that this difficulty will grow as the
cause of the strikers is understood.
