KILLS nine GUNNERS
Three-Inch Shell ExpIodes at
Camp Near Ft. Worth, Tex.
Six of the Men Meet Instant Death
and Three Died Shortly After
The Accident.

Fort Worth, Texas, May 10-Explo-
sion of a three-inch shell killed nine
American gunners and injured seven
others near Benbrook, a few miles
west of Fort Worth.
One gun crew, members of head
quarters company, 141st infantry, was
wiped out and a second crew from
headquarters company, l42nd infantry
suffered heavy casualties.
Six OF the men were killed instantly
and three died shortly after the ex-
plosion.
An attempt on the part of gunner
to force the shell which apparently
did not fit, down a trench mortar is
believed to have been responsible for
the accident. Sergeant Norman Bow,
a Canadian, assistant instructor for
the Stokes trench mortar, said to-
night he saw a soldier attempting to
force the shell and that he attempted
to warn the gunner. The explosion
came too quickly, however, The
wounded, except Sergeant Norman
Bow, of the British army were all
from Texas, as were the dead.

Increase by $2ss,ol2,71s the
Annual Railway PayroIls.

Washington, May 10.-The railroad
all rail employees whose monthly pay
in December, 1915, was less than
$3.50 a month receive an increase.
The recommendations, If adopted by
Director General McAdoo, would give
the workers 100000 900 in back pay
to January l, and would add $2SS, S,012,.
71S to the pay roll as of 1917, net
increase of 15.021 per cent
Wage advances proposed do not
represent net increases over existing
pay, but are based on the month OF
December, 1915. In other words, any
increases which may have been al
lowed by individual roads since that
time must be deducted. In some cas-
es deductions will almost, IL not alto
gether, cover the increase suggested,
according to the report. The roads
themselves during 1916 and 1917 in
creased wages an amount equivalent
to $3.50, 100000 If applied to the pres
ent number of their employees.
No Reductions Possible.
/ CAS- to those who have received
such increases" the report says, eve
advise no other course than that the
scale be adhered to, for ii has it's foun-

tion. In no event should there be any
reduction in wages from those now OBJ
| tanning
THE railroads must maintain their
| complement of workers and il by
meeting fairly, as here, the needs OF
| the time, this end cannot be secured
there must be allowed play for other
forces than those we have recognized >
Flat increases of $50 per month are
proposed for all employees except ap-
prentices receiving SAG or less, and all
others up to S239 would get advances
ranging from 43 per cent down to 4.6
per cent, the smallest increase going
to those with the highest wages,
Above $239, fiat increases would be
given to make the wage $3.50. Ap
prentices from Is to 81 years. old
would received only three-fourths OF
the recommended increases and those
below IS years one-half.
In the application of the scale the
wage runs with the place, so mer
who have been promoted since De
cember, 1915. shall receive increases
lapplicable to the new place and mo-
to their wages in that month. Mer
discharged since January lst, shall re
ceive their share of the retroactive
pay for the time that they worked.

Baker Says American Army In
France Is Becoming An
important Factor.
RUSHING MEN ABROAD
During the Latter Part of April the
Movement of Troops to France
Was Five Times Greater Than
Best Record Last Winter.

Washington, May 10.-Secretary of
War Baker confirms the reports that
the American army in France is fast
becoming a factor of great Importance
in the war.
5-aJement Mr.. Baker said that
he forecast he made in January that
there was strong likelihood that early
in the present year 100000 American
troops would be dispatched to France
had been surpassed.
Mr. Baker dictated the following
statement:
"In January | told the Senate COM
mittee that there was strong like
lihood that early in the present year
100000 American troops would be des-
patched to France. | cannot either
now or perhaps later discuss the num-
ber of American troops in France, but
| am glad to be able to say that the
forecast | made in January has been
surpassed"
100000 Drafted.
To date 1,227,000 Americans have
been called to the colors under the
selective service act. Provost Mar
shall General Crowder today gave this
figure as the approximate strength of
the conscripted forces.
AS a result of a personal investi-
cation of machine gun production
during the past few days, Secretary
Baker announced that there was no
present shortage of light or heavy
types OF these weapons either In
France or America and no shortage
is in prorpect.
Mr.. Baker said there had been no
question brought up as to the supplies
of light type Browning guns, which
were coming forward in quantities.
He would not say whether shipment
of thece guns to France had been
started.
Heavy Brownings Delayed.
AS to the heavy Brownings he said:
Every manufacturers estimates as
60 the production of the heavy type
perhaps were more optimistic than
was justified. The estimate of the
| ordnance department in January has
| heen met and is being met. Some
| of these guns have been produced and
there, Is every indication OF forth
coming production in increasing and
betantial numbers"
