FOURTH RAID IN
THE LAST MONTH

London. Oct. 2-The official account
Of the raid by ten Zeppelins over
England last night, shows that no
lives were lost and the property dam
age was not great.
.One Of the Zeppelins, which after
being driven off by anti-aircraft fire,
persisted in returning to the north
of London. She was again attacked
and brought to earth. a seething
torch, while the spectators cheered.
A second airship attempted to at
tack London from the northeast, but
was driven off.
Friends Of Count Zeppelin we're
alarmed when they learned that an
other airship had been brought down
in England last night. says the Am
sterdam correspondent of the Ex-
change Telegraph company. The
raid, the correspondent cables, but
the message sent to Germany ELECTED
the information that at the last mo-
ment. owing to the persuasion Of hts
family, he decided not to join the
raiders.
Except for a part of the envelope
there was left hardly any vestige rec
ship. which was brought down last
night near Pottersbar. The Zeppelin
burned more fiercely than the one
previously destroyed, which. like her,
fortunately, fell in an open field. The
members of the crew were incinerated
and their bodies were scattered over
the feld on which the airship alighted
some eighty yards from a farmer 8
cottage.
The Zeppelin seemed to remain al
most stationary in the air for three
minutes before the envelope burst
into flames. Tongues Of fire licked
along the bag until it was all ablaze.
Four Zeppelin raids on London and
the east coast have been carried out
in the last month. On September
one Zeppelin was struck while flying
over the. London district and fell in
flames.
Two zeppelins were destroyed in
the raid of September %. On that oc-
casion the raiders killed 8s persons
and wounded 1925. The following
night. in another raid, in which the
airships apparently escaped without
damage, they killed 36 persons and
wounded q.
In the raid of September 3. only
two persons suffered death and 13
were injured.

CONN. DELEGATION
 FOR APPROPRIATION
Dislike Action of Senate in Strik-
 ing Out Relief Fund
Especial to the Herald.)

Washington, June 28.-Members d. the Connecticut delegation who we've present in the house yesterday voted against accepting the senate amend ment to the resolution authorizing a draft of the National Guard for federal service beyond the Mexican border, which amendment struck out the provision previously made by the house that $1,000,000 be available for the relief of dependent members of the families of National Guardsmen. The resolution went to conference with that question at issue. The senate proposed in lieu of that to eX cuse National Guardsmen with de- pendent families from service, upon their own application. Senators Me Lean and Brandegee voted for the senate substitute amendment
 Senator Brandegee opposed an amendment of Senator LaFOllette of Wisconsin to the resolution, to pro- vide that the militia should be re- tained in federal service only during the period of hostilities. In doing so Senator Brandegee said:
 MT President, for the period of the war I think would be an accurate term, but I agree With the senator from MlSSlSSlppl NMr. Nardaman) Tn thinking that the words suggested by the senator from Wisconsin (Mr. La Follette) during the period of actual hostilities,' would not be a definite term at all to prescribe how long a man who had been drafted was bound tc serve. It seems to me that if it means anything different than for the period of the war it's meaning should oo oo6o ina zine that should there be a declaration of war before a formal peace should be concluded, there might be quite an extended period of time when actual fighting was not going on, and if our armed forces should prevail I can easily see that they might be required to remain as garrisons and as pacifying forces. al though nnt god In

BELIEVES ]. 5. IS
 INSPIRED BY GREED
Vienna Newspaper Says We Aim
 to Annex Central America

Vienna, Tuesday, June 27, via Der lin, June 28 and London, 12:30 p. m The Tageblatt, the first Austrian newspaper to comment on the Mexi- can situation, expresses the opinion that the United States is committed 1rretrleVably to an imperialistic policy which aims at the annexation not only of Mexico but of all Central America It regards the present situation as merely the logical outcome of the imperialistic policy which, it says, was begun under the Cleveland admins tration and to which the United States became welded by the Spanish Amer ican war.
 The Tageblatt suggests that the unrest in Mexico since the Diaz re- gime has been fomented secretly by American money in order to create 8 situation which appears to warrant interference, ostensibly in the interest of peace. To whatever causes the succession of revolutions may be traceable, says the Tageb1att, the American policy in any event is little short of "a bouquet of poisoned flowers for President Wilson at this time, handed to him just at the mo- ment he desired to begin his cam paign. "aFhe newspaper gives the president credit for desiring to main tain peace.
 The whole situation, the Tageb1att continues, may mean the inaugural tion of a doctrine ito parallel the Monroe Doctrine, ~ namely: Latin America for Latin-A m ericans."
 Having esta blish4d, as it believes, the existence of an overwhelming inn perialistic and annexationist policy in the United States, the Tageblatt pro- ceeds to criticise it severely-not be- cause it is wrong but because the United States is unprepared for war 1 and because typical American haste in this case has become premature precipitation
 Regarding President Wilson, the Tageblatt says in conclusion:
 The professor of great and good 1 ideas and his country are about to be gravely disappointed. He believed it possible to make Mexico his prey by peaceable means Now he stands | in danger of an incalculable war. l Who knows whether it can be pre- ] vented %

ties. While I would have no objec- ton to any other term, if it could be made accurate, that would effectuate the purpose desired, it seems to me that it is wisest not to put that In, but to leave it 'dNring the period Of the war, as the joint resolution al- ready prescribes, unless sooner dis charged' and I assume that no ad- rninistration would want to keep the militia in the service of the United States any longer than they were actually needed for the purpose of war. Therefore, I hope that the amendment of the senator from Wis consin will not prevail" And it did not prevail"
 Representative Oakley Of Connecti- cut was one of dozen members of the house who voted against the con- ference report on the rural credits bill. MT. Oakley had previously voted against the original bill. He said he cast both votes because he is opposed to the principle upon which the legislation is based and be- cause he does not like the provisions of the bill separately.
