Tabloid Aeroplanes.s

The British reason, quite logically,
that the smaller the aeroplane and the
faster it can fly the less danger Of its
being hit by shots fired from earth.
SO the British airmen favor an unusu-
ally small machine, which they call the
tabloid" A very light frame is fit
ted with an S0-horse power motor,
which will drive the frail machine
through the air at the rate of 100
miles an hour. The engine is, covered
with armor. The aviator seeking to
drop bomb on the enemy approaches
his target at a height Of 5000 feet.
When straight above it he turns the
nose Of his machine straight down and
drops at terrific speed. When within
500 feet of the target he drops his
bombs as quickly as possible and then
shoots skyward at tremendous pace.

KING CONSTANTINE OF
GREECE TO DECLARE WAR
Decision Ends Long Diplomatic Battle
-Four Thousand Troops Join
Revolt in Crete.

London, Sept. 29.-The council of
Greek ministers has decided, in agree
lnent 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 a
German submarine off the coast Of
Sardinia. The crew was saved.
Paris had advices that Greek troops
in Canea, to the number of 1000, have
Joined the revolutionists. Only a colo
mel, a few other officers, and "a of 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 Roumania,
Greece pivoted on the brink of war
from the first day of the world con-
f1ict.
Now that the country has decided
to take the plunge, the last of the
uncertain powers is out in the open,
a diplomatic war is ended in victory
for the entente and the way is open
for a finish fight on the battlefields Of
Europe.

Berlin, Oct. 3.-The victory of Gen

The Roumanian first army has been

RUSS RENEW LEMBERG DRIVE.
1000 Teutons Captured, Says Official
Report Issued at Petroqrad.

London Oct. 3.-The two-pronged
advance of the Russians on Lemberg
is again gathering full Roadway, and
the Austro-German armies of Prince
Leopold of BAVARIA and Archduke
Karl have been pushed back. Both
northeast and southeast of the Cali
clan capital the Russians have regis
tered advances, capturing, according to
the official report issued on Sunday at
Petrograd, more than 1000 prisoners.
Russian gains are admitted by Berlin.
The two main actions are being
waged in the region of the Brody-
Krasne railway, about 80 miles north
east of Lemberg, and in the Brezezany
sector of the Zlota Lipa river, 80 miles
southeast of the city.
In the former districts the Russians
have pressed forward against heavy
resistance taking about 1000 prison
ers. A Teuton position on the right

HUNDREDS ARE REPORTED
SLAIN IN MEXICO FIGHT
More Than 100 ViIlistas Fall in Bat
tie Fifty Miles Southwest OF
Chihuahua.

Chihuahua City, Mex, Sept. 3d.
More than a 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 Cusihuira-
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 a large force of Carranza
troops. with orders to divide his force
and distribute the troops in such 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.
Troops continue to pour into Chi
huahua City from the South to partici-
pate in the Villa hunt. Gen. Apolenio
Trevino's command arrived from Tor
reon during the day and paraded
throupb the streets. These troops will
be sent into the field at once.

ITEMS FROM EVERYWHERE

A new method of utilizing coal in
competition with oil fuel is being tried
at Vancouver. 1t is said that crushed
coal can be supplied to steam-produc-
ing furnaces by the same method that
oil is utilized. The new process is Of
special interest to British Columbia, as
1t is proposed to apply it for smelt-
ing purposes in the big mining plants
of the province. 1t is asserted that
seven tons Of copper ore can be smelt-
ed with one ton of coal by this process,
whereas formerly the ratio was ton
Of coal to ton of ore.
Russia and Serbia, also Austria, may
allow young women to fight in their
armies, but Canada will not, although
according to recruiting officer in Win
nipeg, several have applied, and two
could hardly be kept from join
ing by force in response to a call for
"stenographers for the second service
unit of the Nineteenth battalion"
Refining nickel by new process is
reported as having been discovered in
Canada. The claim is that 100 pounds
of matte can be converted into 80
pounds of metal in IS hours, and that
the low-grade iron ores of the Lauren
tan hills near Ottawa can be used.
In British Columbia half of the In
dustrial capital is invested in the lum-
boring and woodworking business, half
the pay roll of the provinces is de-
rived from the forests and 81 per cent
of the annual wealth production is at
tributed to the same source.
The geological survey has estimated
that the Colorado river in an average
year discharged into the gulf of Cali
fornia 100000 tons of silt and salt,
equal to % tons for each square mile

CECIL REPLIES TO
! HOLLWEGS SPEECH
British Minister Says Germany
Seeks Only Truce.
EUROPE is READY FOR PEACE
Cecil Declares Talk of Victory Has
Vanished and Asserts U-Boas
Campaign Will Be
Resumed.

London, Oct. ALI of Europe is
''ready for peace" but Germany
wants "only a truce"
This statement was made by Lord
Robert Cecil, minister of war, trade
and blockade, in answer to Chancellor
Won Bethmann-Hollwegs speech at the
opening of the German reichstag.
1.-The chancellor's speech shows a
considerable change in tone," declared
the British minister to the correspond
ent of the international News service.
'That talk of a German victory has
entirely vanished is remarkable. There
was no word concerning Belgium"
Asked if he considered the chancel-
lors criticism of England more intense
than before, Lord Robert said:
ut is an old trick to try to con-
vince our allies that we are bleeding
them to death. The idea that England
wants world supremacy is fantastic"
The minister expressed the opinion
that Germany has not stopped It's SUD-
marine campaign, but only slackened
during July and August because they
were hard hit.
Everybody is ready for peace" he
concluded. ut depends upon what one
calls peace. The Germans are Not
ready for peace; they only want a
truce for period of preparation for
further world attacks. AS long as they
continue to be governed by the mill
tary class, which is considered superb
or to everyone else, there is no chance
for peace"
Berlin, Oct. 2.-Germany will per-
severe until victory is here, the relchs-
tag was assured by Chancellor Won
Bethmann-Hollweg, according to the
full text of his speech, which was pub
lished here. The chancellor asserted
that the harvest this year had made
Germany's position much more secure
than was the case last year.
In his attack upon Great Britain
Won Bethmann-Hollweg declared that
that country was breaking one interna-
tional law after another, and was
above all Germany's most egotis-
teal, fiercest and most obstinate en-
emy."

FLYING BOAT HAS MiSHAP.
Craft Overturns When Tender Launch
Colldes With 1t.

New York, Sept. 30.-The largest
hydroaeroplane manufactured in Amer
lea, designed for the United States
navy, met mishap after it had been
successfully launched at Clauson's
Point The huge flyer turned over,
nearly drowning seven men. This was
in no wise the fault of her designer,
constructor and aviator, Warren S.
Eaton. He put the craft into the water
with a 40-mile wind blowing. The fly
ing boat was fitted with temporary en-
gines. and so was not sent into the
air. Yet it ran with and against the
wind with ease. The motor outfit will
consist of two 90-horsepower engines.
The flyer is designed to carry two ma
chine guns.
