Two Wounded Near Kentucky J
Camp; Assailants Sought,

Lexington, KY, Sept. 1.-Two sold
iers stationed at Camp Stanley were
waylaid and shot yesterday and both
police and soldiers are searching for
two negroes today. The shots took ef-
feet in the legs of the soldiers, but
neither was considered seriously in
j.lred. Officials believe that the attack
by the negroes was the direct outcome
of the trouble between several negroes
and soldiers on Saturday that almost
developed into a race riot. The police
have the situation in hand and fear
no more trouble, however.

Held Back Invaders.
While the Germans were knocking
at the gates of Riga from the west and
southwest hurting shells Of all cali
bers and loosing gas waves against the
towns, loyal Russian troops held them
back long enough to blow up the for
Iif1cations at the mouth of the Dvina
and raze the bridges over the water
way to the south where the detection
in the ranks of the Russians appar-
emily was greatest. The Germans, ac-
cording to the Berlin official commune
cation took some thousands of pris-
oners' and also captured more than
$50 guns and great quantities of war
material.
In the Austro-Italian theater the in
tensive infantry fighting of previous
days seemingly has given way for the
moment to reciprocal artillery duels
of great violence. The cessation in
the fighting probably is due to a re-

that the Germans also are fastening
