IaepubIican A.P. Leased Wire]


 At last accounts Field Marshal Haig was consolidating the positions won from the Germans in Wednesdays bat tie east of Ypres, the extension of which would give him a position dom mating the Ostend- Lille railroad and flanking both the narthern and south ern parts of Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria's line.
 All the commanding positions taken by the English, scotch and Australian troops in the latest drive have been firmly held by them, despite numerous furious counter attacks delivered with huge effectives, in which the Germans suffered terrible losses.
 The Berlin official communication reports that to the east of Ypres the British artillery again has assumed the proportions of drum fire which is al ways an indication that Haig has iE store for the enemy still further re- lentless attack against his lines
 Grown Prince Fredrick William, probably imbued with the idea that at some time he will be able to pierce General Petain's front along the south ern part of the battle line in France continues here and there to strike violently His latest attempt has been in the forest of the Argonne, where three times he threw his troops against the Frenchmen.
 The effort of the Germans was fruit less and brought to thief only addition al heavy casualties. Comparative quiet prevails on all the other battle fronts. although there has been re- sumption by the Russians of their ac- tivities in the Caucasus, where at sew eral points Ottoman forces have beer defeated.
 The British controller of -shippins announces that the losses of British ships since last February have approx imately equalled to the total losses tt the war before that period and it i: reasonable to expect the enemy vii l destroy with U-boats 200 vessels in eX cess of the tonnage that can be bull | by next spring. He says there is UT gent need for the United States to un dertake merchant ship building on |; broad scale, as otherwise it will be i'm possible to send subtantial force O | soldiers to France next spring withou | seriously affecting the tonnage re 1 quired for carrying tood to France, It ally and Great Britain.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-Although the wind at places attained a velocity as high as 100 miles an hour, the hur ricane- swept section of the gulf coast from the Mississippi river to the west coast of Florida, escaped serious dam age today. unless there was great loss at Pensacola, the only city which to- night was cut off from communica- ton.
 For hours this afternoon and tonight the entire coast was isolated, all tele- graph and telephone wires being down, and great anxiety was felt that the hurricane might exact such a toll as that of last year, when many lives were lost and several million dollars worth of property destroyed.
 With communication restored to- night there were no reports of loss of life and the property loss apparently was comparatively small. Railroad bridges along the gulf were damaged and at Mobile and other cities some buildings were unroofed
 Ample warning of the hurricanes s approach had been given even to the

DEFENSE COUNCIL
 ID OUTLINE WORK
 0V B|G PROBLEMS

Monday, October l, will be a busy day at the headquarters of the State Council of Defense. In the morning at 9:30 o'clock, the chairman of the various subcommittee will meet with the executive committee and in the afternoon at o'clock the session of the latter begins. The call for this meeting follows:
 My dear sir:
 In view of the number of important matters which are now before the Council of Defense, and new work which is developing, a meeting of the executive committee of the State Council of Defense is called at the state house at D. m., Monday, Octo- Der 1.
 At 9:3O a. m. of the same day and at the same place, the executive com mittee is asked to meet with the chair man of the various ub-committees of the council, that the views of these different chairmen may be obtained as to the most practical and efficient lines of procedure to assure the maximum of useful results with the least waste of energy.
 At the meeting, reports of work ac- compliShed will be made, and the fol- lowing features of future work con- sidered:
 First: The development of some practical plan in cooperation with the Red Cross, assuring our boys at the front of the welfare of their families during their absence. It seems but simple justice that some such plan be 1 adopted, to the end that want comes to the families of none of these young ! hi hax i11c nd hot | our service is performed in a spirit of patriotic duty.
 Second: Our state crop survey is nearly complete and ready for delivery i to Timothy A. Riordan, state food ad- ministrator, and plans should be evolved to give MT. Riordan on behalf of the Council of Defense the largest possible cooperation in the great con- 1 structive task he has on hand. Third: The development of a plan which is strongly urged by the Nation al Council of Defense, and which has met with marked success in other states is that of creating active county councils to work in strict cO-operatior with the state councils of defense. Sev- eral of these county councils have al ready been organized in this state witt satisfactory results.
 Fourth: Outlining an effective plal to assist in promptly placing Arizona quota of the forthcoming Liberty Loan Fifth: The consideration of way! and means of making a patriotic dis play at the state fair.
 L Sixth: The question of the simplifi cation of the work of the sub-commit tees and the possible reorganization O some of these committees.
 The men and women of Arizona awakened by the needs of the nation and inspired by the example of ou boys now serving their country, ar ready and willing to do their full shar to win this war, and it seems the clea duty of the Council of Defense to or ganize this spirit of service to secur the maximum of results. We need your help, and l yer strongly urge a full attendance at thl meeting that we may have your coun sel and advice in outlining thorough practical, constructive plans for ou future work.
 Faithfully yours, DWIGHT B. HEARD,

AIR RAIDERS GET
 LITTLE CHANCE IN
 RAID O|V ENGLISH
[RepubIfcan A.P. Leased Wire1

LONDON, Sept 2S-Hostile air. planes attacked the southeast coast of England this evening"
 A few of them attempted to reach London but failed. No reports of casu- alties or damage have been received as yet. The official report issued by Field Marshal French in charge of the aerial defense of Great Britain, follows:
 Hostile airplanes attacked the southeast coast of England this even ing. The raiders were reported from various points along the coast in Suf- folk Essex and Kent. The majority of the raiders did not venture far inland A few of them headed toward London but failed to reach the metropolis.
 Bombs were dropped in Suffolk, Es- sex and Kent, but no reports regarding casualties or damage have been re- ceived as yet.
 When the air raid warning was is sued In London, everybody took to cover in the usual way. They waited two hours without hearing the sounds of defensive gun or the bomb of a raider, until it became evident the German airmen had been headed off from the London area"
 From the first telegrams received from the coast the features of the air raid seem to have been the intense volume of the defensive gun fire and the speediness of teh repulse of the raiders. One dispatch says there was a tremendous roar of guns all along the Thames estuary. The numberless fatteries put up regular curtain fire. British airplanes also went up after the raiders and there was con- siderable air fighting. Afterward the firing gradually died away and the noise of the enemys engines grew faint as the airplanes speeded to sea One dispatch says several bombs were dropped in rural areas south cast of Suffolk a few miles inland but that as far as was known there was neither damage nor casualties.

TRANSFER SNAG
 IN PROJECT IS
 FOUND; REMOVED

Discovering the hitch in proceed ings which was endangering the transfer of the valley reclamation project from the government to the Salt River Valley Water Users as- sociation, quick action has been taken which is expected to bring to a successful culmination today the transaction so that the transfer may take place as planned on Octo- Der 1, the opening of the irrigation year. The snag was over the pow CT contracts. At nearly the eleventh hour the government decided it must have signed agreement with the people who have contracted for Roosevelt dam power whereby they formally agreed to. transfer the power obligation from the govern ment to the association. The trouble once found, such agreements were quickly secured and now there are more smiles about the Water Users building than in many days for day light seems to be breaking through the clouds of uncertainty. It is now expected that the formal transfer will be made next Monday as orig
 finally planned.

tleman, was acquitted tonight of charge of attempted subornation of perjury, growing out of the conviction of Thomas J. Mooney on a murder charge in connection with The pre- paredness parade bomb explosion here last year
 The jury deliberated one hour and fifteen minutes. On the first ballot, according to a juror, the vote was eleven to one for acquittal
 We would have reached a verdict five minutes after we went out had it nor been for this one man" said the juror He was won over from his conviction viewpoint after more than an hour of argument
 Mrs. Oxman, wife of the acquitted man, shook hands with the jurors after the verdict had been announced.
 James H. Nichols, personal attorney for Oxman. and Samuel M. Shortriege. who made the closing argument for the defense, were bitter in their denuncia- tion of Rigall, chief witness for the prosecution.
 Nichols characterized Rigal as a wretch, a poolroom shark. con fessed gambler and a self convicted perjurer," and charged him with poisoning every statement made by District Attorney Fickert, Assistant District Attorney Cunha, and Oxman. for a price,
 Nichols broke several bones in his right hand when he brought it down on the rail before the jury box with hard blow. Shortridge, in his argu- ment, said:
 "Rigall is a confessed drunkard. brawler, gambler, bootlegger and con fidence man. He is not only a self confessed liar, but a perjurer as well. Not one word has been introduced into the testimony to impugn .he character of Frank c. Oxman..'
 Oxman was brought to trial Septem- Der 12 He was the principal witness against Mooney. After Moneys con- viction and sentence to death, attor- neys for the defendants in the bomb murder cases unearthed letters which Oxman had written to Rigall, asking him to testify against Mooney. OK l man admitted writing these letters but declared he had added a postscript to one of them desiring Rigall not to come west unless he had been in San ,, Francisco July 22 1916, the day of the | explosion.
 As result of publicity given the | letters, State Attorney General Webb | filed stipulation with the state su- i preme court in which he consented to ] a new trail for Mooney. The new trial
 was denied on this stipulation because 1 the court held it had no jurisdiction | to act on such document Mooney's l appeal. based on the record of his l trial, is pending.

GOLD EMBARGO |S ORDERED BY
 MEXICAN CHIEF
Republican A.P. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S.-Mexico has put an embargo on exports of gold required that imported gold be deliv- cred for mintage within thirty days and imposed restrictions upon the ex- portation of silver.
 Ambassador Bonillas was notified to- day that President Carranza issued the decree yesterday, effective immediately.
 May Close Mines
 FL PASO, Sept. 2S.-By presidential decree, all gold shipped out of Mexico in the form of mineral ores or concen- trates must be returned to Mexico within ten days of its exportation in bond and 25 per cent of the value of all silver or ore concentrates must also be returned to Mexico in the form of gold bars, national or foreign gold coins.
 A code copy of this decree was re- ceived here late today by Consul Gen eral Guillermo M. Sequin and copies given to the American mine owners having holdings in Mexico. Mining men here say it may mean the abandonment of plans for reopen 1 ing mines producing large values in gold and silver and the closing down of those now in operation. The decree also prohibits the expor- l tation of Mexican gold or silver coins. 1 gold in bars or any other forms of the | metals. The third clause in the decree declares that exporters of mineral ores or concentrates of all kinds having more than six grams of gold per ton will have to re- import in gold bars for coinage or in national or foreign coins of equal value to the gold contents ac- l cording to the assay
 1 Exporters of mineral ores or concen- | trates containing over fifty grams of silver per ton must re-import p per cent of the value of these ores in the | form of gold bars or coins. Exporters l must give bond for the transportation 1 of the required amount of gold and this gold will be delivered to the mint with l in thirty days after it is reimported. If this transportation is not made within ten days, the bond will be declared for feited.
 Mining men here tonight said it l was impossible to anticipate what the effect of the decree would have upon the mining industry of Mexico. There is
 now in effect an embargo against the
 exportation of gold and silver from the
 United States and they said this would have to be lifted by means of special
 licenses before any gold could be re-
 imported to Mexico. It would also
 mean the retention in Mexico of every
 ounce of gold produced, they said,
 making it difficult for the American
 owned companies to meet their obliga-
 lions in the United States.
 In the meantime they said they
 would make no effort to reopen their
 mines until the decree was given a
 trial.
