GOOD ANIMAL FEATS
Characterized the Cook X Wilson Shows
in Barre Yesterday.

Cook 4 Wilson got their rolling stock
and trained wild animals out OF the
Ayers street park last night in plenty OF
time TO make the needed connections for
st. Albans and with the departure OF the
animal outfit, Barre's first circus in two
years was out of the way, Where the
show folks had the grounds pretty much
TO themselves in the afternoon, there was
a good sized crowd In the evening. Stress
on the merit of the animal performers is
well laid by the show boosters, for there
was little else 20 commend in high terms.
Bears, lions. elephants and monkeys went
through their PAGES in a most creditahle
manner and there were other features
that went 20 round out fairly satisfac-
tory performance. More people hurried
into the city for the evening performance
than were noticed in the afternoon. Last
night the managers said they were well
satisfied with their reception in Barre
and promised to drop into town again If
ever they route this way, Central Yer
mont railroad officials in Barre opened up
space for loading the circus near Granite
street and by 10 o'clock the work OF
the show from Ayers street
to the tracks was we'll under way.
Principally for the reason that gamb-
ling devices were conspicuously absent
and fakirs were not too numerous TO be
the police thought that circus
day went off quite swmmingly. There
were no disturbances and if anybody had
felt the desire to start anything, police
specials and regular, were every
where in evidence and trouble making
would not have been of long duration.

WILSON UPHOLDS WOOD
General Right in Depriving Conley of
Command of 6oth Regiment in
New York

New York, July 29.-President Wilson
has sustained the action of Major Gen.
eral Leonard Wood, commanding the de-
partment of the East, in depriving Col
onel Louis D. Conley of the command Of
the Goth regiment of this city on the
ground of physical disability, it was
learned at Governors island yesterday.
The presidents action became known
when a departmental order of July 25
was made public, The order, which
states that it is Corrected order" on
the Conley case, is signed by General
Wood "oy the order of the president and
the secretary of war;" and states that
Conley "is discharged from the service
of the United States, to take effect July
90"
The order, it was said at Governors
island, finally disposes of Conley's appeal
for rehearsing of his case. He was
found physically unfit on the day that
his regiment was leaving Camp Whitman
for the border, together with his lieuten-
ant colonel John j. Phelan.

EXPECT CARRANZA
TO ACCEPT PLAN
Washington Officials Believe That He
Will Acquiesce in Proposed Exten-
;. sion of International Courts Power.

Washington, d. G., July 29.-Ofiicials
to-day looked for an early agreement by
Carranza to the suggestions for exten-
sion of the powers of an international
joint commission to settle the border
difficulties, which accomplish the Ameri-
can acceptance of Mexico's proposal for
| that form of settlement. 1t will be two
weeks before the commission can meet.
President Wilson is understood to have
under consideration the following men
as the commission; Chief Justice White,
Major General Goethals, Frederick Leh-
man and Justice Brandeis of the supreme
court.
Carranza was informed last night in
a note handed to his ambassador here
that the Washington government is pre-
pared to submit to joint commission
the task of seeking a solution of the bor-
der problems.
The proposal to widen the scope of
subjects to be discussed by the commits
sion is viewed in administration circles
as an extremely important aspect OF the
situation. 1t is through an exchange OF
ideas on the whole Mexican problem
that it is hoped a way may be found to
furnish constructive aid to the de facto
government in the financial and economic
problems with which it is surrounded
Mr.. Arredondo issued yesterday a
summary of of his advices from Mexico
City, saying that 10000 Carranza troops
were closing in on Villa and his followers
in southern Chihuahua, and that destruc-
tion OF the bandit command was certain

ENGLAND is AROUSED
Over the Execution of Captain Fryatt of
the Brussels.

London, July 29-The execution oi
Captain Fryatt of the British steamer
Brussels by the German government has
aroused the British nation, and the for
eign Office has requested James W. Ger
ard, the American ambassador at Berlin
to procure complete details of the affair
| According to information received here
Captain Fryatt was sentenced to death
because while in command OF the British
steamship Wrexham in 1915 he was al
legged to have attempted to ram Ger
man submarine.
The German government, according to
wireless message received here, claims
the execution of the British merchant
captain was on the ground that he had
committed a franc tireur crime against
Germany sea forces" Viscount Grey,
the British foreign secretary, in a COM
munication to Ambassador Gerard, has
claimed that the act for which Captain
Fryatt paid with his life was essentially
defensive"
The British foreign Office claims that
the allegation of the German government
that Captain Fryatt had with him
Watch bearing an inscription commenting
him for an attempt to ram submarine
is untrue. Officials of the foreign office
state that the charge against Captain
Fryatt must have been based on press
reports.
Captain Fryatt was known as a "pi-
rate dodger" on account of his success in
eluding German submarines in the chan
mel and the North sea.
The foreign office has also sent pro-
test to the American embassy asking for
the immediate release of five steward
esses of the Brussels who have been con
fined in German detention camp

SOME FORGOT CARDS
Other Autoists Had Them Hidden In
Some Deep Recesses.


Odd lapses of Judgment and queer cases
of neglect come to the surface in the
shuttle of a days work smong autos
hurrying hither and yon, fact that be-
comes singularly clear in the light of
| findings made by Special Officer Patrick
Henry of Burlington in intercepting autos
on South Main street yesterday. Officer
Henry is working in the interests of the
secretary of state, who feels it incumbent
upon his department TO see to it that the
automobile laws are being respected. Oc.
casionally cases of culpable negligence
come to light and then the officer is not
disposed to deal so leniently with the Of
tenders.
Yesterday Officer Henry spent a good
part Of the afternoon in interviewing au-
toists bound for the circus grounds in the
south end Some had forgotten their
operators licenses few pleaded guilty
to neglect in the matter of obtaining the
certificates, while Others uncovered the
valuable little slips of paper only after
cautious search. One offender of a type
that the department is seeking to ex-
pose was driving his car about town with
one number on the radiator and another
plate on the rear, neither of the numbers
coinciding. All names go down in the of
fcer's little notebook and daily reports
are furnished the Office of the secretary
of state. II Is believed that the footings
viii be very illuminating when Secretary
Bailey has checked up the officers inves-
legations about the state.

BRODY CAPTURED
AND TEUTON LINE
WAS SMASHED
Russians Have Taken 5000 Prisoners and
Seized 46 Guns-Brody is an Impor-
tant Railroad Junction.

London, July 29.-Driving forward al
two points less than sixty miles apart
Russian forces have captured Brody, in
Galicia, and have broken the Austr,-
German first lines west of Dutsk in
Volhynia, according to the latest Russian
official communication. In addition the
Russians have taken 5000 prisoners and
46 guns. Vienna admits the penetra-
tion of the Austrian line on the Brody-
Lesznieow road and says the Austrians
are continuing the battle on the southern
border of Brody.
The capture of Brody, an important
railway junction, some fifty miles north
east of Lembery, opens direct road to
the Galician capital. The occupation of
the town also may have the effect of
causing the entire Austrian line south
ward toward Tarnopol and Buczacz,
which has been held tenaciously in face
OF Russian attacks, to fall back.
The success in Folhynia, while also
means to Lemberg should General Won
Linsingen be unable to withstand the
Russian attacks, which Petrograd re-
ports are continuing, threatens the
stronghold of Volynski, and
makes more insecure the Austro Ger
man hold on Kovel
