Mexican women and children, sur.
vivors of a party of IS colonists that
in 1905 established homes on Clipper
ton island, $50 miles west of Aca-
pulco, Mex, in the Pacific ocean, have
arrived here on an American war
ship, which rescued them in July.
They had been marooned on the ISL
and nearly four years. According to
the survivors the last supply ship to
reach the island was one that arrived
some time in 1914.
The provisions of the garrison and
colonists there ran out and in
short while the inhabitants were re-
duced to the necessity Of living on
birds and eggs and cocoanuts.
Scurvy broke out and the colonists
died rapidly. The ravages of scurvy
were checked when the few survivors
took to living almost exclusively on
cocoanuts.

London, Sept. 14-The situation in
France and Belgium continues COM
paratively quiet, except for the artil-
lery which is carrying out reciprocal
bombardments on various sectors.

San Gabrielle have been rewarded with
slight gains. Their effort to press
these advances failed completely be-

the Isonzo as a failure and asserts
that the Italian losses have reached
almost a quarter Of a million men,
among them 10000 prisoners.
