 LONDON, July 13.-The British bat tleship Vanguard blew up and sank on July 9, says an official statement is sued tonight by the British admiralty.
 An internal explosion while the ship was at anchor caused the disaster. Only three men of those on board survived and one of them has since died. Twenty -four officers and T men, how ever, were not on board at the time of the explosion.
 The official statement reads:
 H. M. s. Vanguard, Captain James D. Dick blew up while at anchor on the night of July as the result of an internal explosion.
 The ship sank immediately and there were only three survivors among those aboard ship at the time of disaster one officer and two men. The officer has since died. There were. however, 2f officers and T men not on board at the time, thus bringing the total num- ber of survivors to 97.
 "A full inquiry has been ordered
 The British battleship Vanguard dis placed 19,270 tons and her component before the war was 870 men. The Van guard belonged to the St Vincent class of dreadnaughts and was launched in March, 1909. The Vanguard was 536 feet ong with a beam of S4 feet and a draft of 27 feet. The armament con sisted of ten 12-inch guns, IS four inch and four S-pounders in addition 10 three torpedo tubes.

GREAT DRIVE IF
 RUSSIANS GAINS
 MUCH MOMENTUM
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

Republican A. p. Leased Wirel
 Gaining momentum as it moves westward, the great Russian drive along the Dniester in Galicia continues successfully. The fighting is progress ing on a 50-mile front from Ealicz to the foothills of the Carpathians and all along the line the Russians are advanc- ing.
 Northwest of Halicz on Thursday the Russians enlarged their gains north of the Dniester, captured important heights between the river and Buka = zowice and occupied two villages. This advance is in the direction of Lemberg.
 In the center and on the southern end of the line the Russians have been victorious in heavy battles for the pos session of the crossings of the river Lomnica. They have made progress on the road to Dolina and have cap tured the crossings of the Lomnica at Perehinsko, about 15 miles south of Kalusz and four miles west of BohOr- odozany.
 The Russians now are on the path to Dolina, 20 miles southwest and to Stryj, g miles north of DOlina, on the Kalusz-Lemberg railway line. The capture of these towns probably would make certain an Austro German re- tirement from the Zlota-Lipa line, which has been held for more than a year.
 In the capture of Kalusz, General korniloffs soldiers took nearly 1000 prisoners, mostly Germans. In addi- tion five heavy guns and ten machine guns fell into their hands,
 A probable resumption of heavy fighting north of the Pripet marshes and in Rumania is indicated. On the Dvina and Shara rivers and near Smorgon, north of Pinsk, there has been more active infantry fighting. Nc determined attack, however, has yet developed.
 The Russian advance west of Stanis lau besides endangering the Austro- German line immediately north in Ga licia, also is a threat against the line in Rumania. The Russian and Ru- manian artillery has been hammering the Teuton positions there in the last few days and already advance parties have been thrown forward to test the enemy's strength. No attack in force has been attempted.
 Raids and accommodating engage ments have obcupied the British an6 Germans on the northern end of the front in France. South of St. Quentin along the Aisne front, and on botf (Continued on Page Two)

WILL HANDLE SITUATION AT
 BORDER CITY
Republican A. p. Leased WlreJ


 HERMANAS N. M, July 13.-Dis- if Simpson, of Luna county, New Mexico, accompanied by fifty deputies, arrived here late today under instruc- tions from Governor Lindsey to arrest the 1900 men deported from Bisbee yesterday and take them to Columbus until arrangements have been made for their final disposition.
 The sheriff said he would wait for instructions from the governor before taking further action. He was not prepared to discuss his announcement made today that if the federal gov ernment failed to assume charge of the men he would commander a train and return them to Arizona.
 The food situation which was acute today was relieved tonight by the ar rival of a truck load of supplies from Columbus and two carloads of food stuffs from Fl Paso. The supplies from Fl Paso were sent by the rail- road company after appeals had been made to Brigadier General George Bell, Jr.. in response to appeals from the deported men.
 With the eXiles the big question was What is to become of us?'
 Governor Lindsey this afternoon an- nounced from the state capitol that the men were to be confined in some suitable place, in a stockade if neces- sary, and fed at state expense until the federal government took them over Having telegraphed the state and war departments and President Wilson that he considered the refugees national problem, he was awaiting a l~;. l,A relieved of responsibility of the charges thrust upon it by Arizona
 CIeary Is Chosen Leader w B. Cleary. Bisbee attorney and well known labor advocate, who was deported with the others, has taken unofficial charge of the party. He has counselled that the deported men make the best of the situation. Cleary issued the following statement tonight: There were 12S6 men deported from Bisbee yesterday With few exceptions they were all underground miners, the others. being small business men oi i, the Warren district, which includes 1 Bisbee, Lowell and Warren. The mer were on a strike for better conditions l particularly for two men on a machine which is the custom in most mining ] districts.
 "The men also asked discontinuance of the physical examination which ev- cry man is obliged to submit to before obtaining a job and which has beer used as a basis of blacklist. Under it's guise men who are physically able have been refused work because o I their political utilization and principles Another demand was for s6 wag per day as a minimum. six dollars to day not having any more purchasing power than three dollars and fifty
 cents had when miners received tha
 sum and copper was selling at four
 teen and fifteen cents a pound. | Says They Were Peaceful "The strike on the part of the miner
 was most peaceful. In the neighbor hood of go per cent of the underground workers went out. There was nc physical violence. The police records show far fewer arrests during the time
 of the strike than during ordinary | times.

NET QUOTAFOR
 { ALL STATES ID l BE E687,00O MEN
rRepubIican A. p. Leased wire1


 WASHINGTON, July 13.-A formal order by President Wilson drafting 6S7 .009 men into the military service under the seective conscription law was promulgated today by the war de- pertinent, together with an official allotment showing what part or the total must be furnished by each state and territory. The only steps now re- maining are distribution by the gov CT inors of state quotas among the local exemption districts, and the great lot tery, which probably will be held next week and which will establish the order in which registrants are to pre- sent themselves for service or exemp- tiOn
 The men summoned for service will be used to fill the regular army and national guard to war strength and to organize the first 500000 of the new national army. The total of these three forces will be 1,262,9S5 men. Later another 500000 will be called out, supplemented by sufficient men to make up losses and maintain reserve ba'talions
 In computing the number of men to be required from the various states the government placed on the debit side of the ledger the national army of 800, ,000, the entire national guard at war strength and the number of war vol unteers needed April last to bring the regulars up to war strength. This gave d gross quota for each state, from which a net quota was computed by checking off the number of national guardsmen available for federal ser vice and the number of men given by the state to the regular army since April l.
 The total of the gross quotas is 1, 1928 men.
 Credit is given to the various states for d total of 465, 9S5 voluntary enlist ments in the national guard and regu- lars, making the total net quota for all states 6S7 ,000 men.
 The net quotas include: Arizona 3472; California, 23060; Colorado 4753; New Mexico. 2,292 Texas, 30, 545. The gross quotas include; New Mexico 9,S56; Arizona, 4,47S; Cali fornia, 34,907; Colorado, 9,792; Texas 4S,116.
 Comparison between the gross and net quotas shows what any state has done in furnishing troops by the volun tary system. Striking examples from the top and bottom of the lists are Oregon and Arizona.
 Oregons gross quota was 7,737 men . but the state has 4,6S3 national guards men and has given 1874 war recruits to the regular army. In all, Oregon had credit for 6,657 volunteers to appl, against her gross quota, which, with the adjustment factor applied to correct certain differences in the population estimates reduced her net quota to 71I men.
 Arizona, on the other hand, with 's gross quota of 4,42S men. has only 72' men in the national guard and has re cruited only I'll men since April 1 fo, the regulars, making the states ne quota, after adjustment, 3,472.

GERMANS EVOLVE MINIATURE FROM
 BRITISH ATTACK
[RepuAlcan A. p. Leased wirel


 BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, July 13.-(By the Associated Press. )-The German attack along the sand dunes of the Belgian coast on Tuesday evening was in nearly all re- spects a miniature of the British at tack on the Messines ridge on June 7 It seemed as if the Germans had studied that battle in detail and planned their thrust wholly on the lessons learned There was a vast difference in the size of the two operations however, for while the German attack on Tuesday was limited to 1,400 yards the British charge at Messines was along a ten mi front The depth of the two attacks also was in the ratio of ten to one. the Ger mans having advanced only about 500 yards. or to the British support line, where they now are endeavoring to en- trench themselves, whi the British have fallen back to the west bank of the Yser.
 The little battle on the sands of Flan- ders will live largely through the valor ous defense of the Eng ish troops, who met the shock of the German massed formation after having their protecting defenses blown to pieces about them Dy lllt COlCtnlIdllDH UT 1GI- man shell fire seen on this front in more than year. The trenches dug among the blowing and shifting sand dunes were speedily obliterated by the storm of high explosive shells the Ger mans were able to pour on them. Most of the shells were the famous 5.9 centimeter projectiles and upward few field guns having come into play. During the terrific bombardment which lasted all through Tuesday the fortifi- cations recent y taken over by the Brit ish could fairly be seen to dissolve. The German lines to the river Yser and the sea formed a triangle, the base of which was the coast line. In this angle, the sands of which are now dyed red with English blood. were Northampton troops and Kings Royal rifles. The garrison fought to the death and the German report of 1 ,250 prisoners taken cannot be correct
 The temporary bridges across the Yser had been blown to bits during the barrage fire and the troops which eventually escaped across the river had i to swim the stream.

 Emperor William has summoned Field Marshal von Hndenburg, chief of the general staff, and General Ludendorff, the chief quartemaster general for con- ference
 This should be interpreted in connection with ntmations that the German government has decided to refuse to paramentarze the cabinet and the difficulties reported in connection with the adoption of peace resolution.
