New York, July 2O.-"There are
q 900 trained soldiers-Filipinos-in
the Philippine Islands ready to take
the field, and every one Of them will

ocratic "boss" OF the Philippines. He
was a captain In the Forty-ffth In
fantry, United States Volunteers, in

Ilieve, is largely due to President viii,
sons policy In regard to the Islands

millions" the Colonel declared. "Fili'

LITTLE OR No LOSS
Of LIFE WHEN
U.S.. bA[1LESh|P
Went down
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, July 20.-Captain II.
H. Christy, commander of the ar,
mored American cruiser, San Diego
sunk off Long Island yesterday, re
ported to the navy today that he be
lieived the battleship had been tor
pedoed, although there is no positive
evidence of a submarine. The De-
partment is still without evidence as
ITO the loss of life, although 1t is known
that nearly all were rescued.
That little or no loss Of life oc
Cured is indicated by the fact tina,
the San Diego was abandoned in goot
order. The statement that five OF
six mines were destroyed in the VI
cinity last night confirmed the Off
cials in the belief that there was ne
submarine.

MANY PLEAD TO MAKE
AIR FLIGHT ACROSS ATLANTIC
Army Flyers at MeneOla Sign Petl.
ton Confident Of Early Attempt

New York, July 2O.-Feeling conf
dent that before the summer is over
an attempt will be made to cross the
Atlantic by airplane, forty cracy army
flyers attached to the First Provision
al Wing, Mineola, L. L., have filed
with Major C. K. Rhinehart petit
ton asking that they or some Of their
number be allowed to make the trial.
The Major, pleased at the enthusiasm
OF the pilots, promptly added his own
name to the list.
The petition was headed by Captain
H. F. Harvey and was endorsed by
Major W. J. East, in command oil
Group A at Mitchell Field, formerly
known as Field No. Q.
In commenting on the flight, Major
Rhinehart said he thought 1t feasible
that the ocean would be crossed by
some flyer before the year ends Amer
leans are now flying the giant Capron
planes daily and 1t is likely that In
event the trial is made, these ma
chimes, as we'll as those Of the Hand
ley-Page type, will be employed.
The Major gave 1t as his opinion
that the big Caproni machines car
make a nonstop flight from New
Foundland to Ireland, the distance
from one coast to the other being
1850.

PROJECT FOR CREATION OF
PAN-AMERICAN UNION WITH
BUILDING In BUENOS AIRES
(By Associated Press. }

Buenos Aires, July 2O.-Dr. Ramon
Lopez Lomba, Uruguayan consul gen.
eral to France, has arrived In this
city with the purpose Of obtaining
support for his project for the crea-
Ition of a solid Pan-American Union
with building in Buenos Aires, on
the same lines as the Pan-American
Union in Washington.
DR.. Lomba is intensely enthusiastic
over the project, which he thinks
would be of immense mutual advan-
tage to the social, mental and COM
mercial development Of the countries
of the American continent. He has told
newspaper men that he is confident
that with the active cooperation Of
all interested forces, a building wor-
thy Of the nations Of North and South
America could be erected in this city.
Special Canadian and United States
Isections would be set apart In the
proposed building to further increase
the commercial relations between Ar
gentina, Canada and the United
States.
Dr.. Lomba claims to have received
Overwhelming evidences Of hearty
support of his plan from various So
cieties, institutions, chambers Of com"
merce, historical, literary, and pa
ftriotic societies, and, as special atten-
ton Is to be given to the Canadian
section, he Is now trying to get the
support of the many British organi-
cations in Buenos Aires.
It appears that DR.. Lomba's sug,
lgestion is for Pan-American Union
on popular lines instead of diplomatic
lines, as at Washington, and he is de-
lyoting his energies to interesting
the public rather than the govern
ments of the countries he visits. II
lis his idea to have the building serve
as a museum in which would be docu-
ments and exhibits connected with the
discovery of America, historical docu-
ments relating to the battles of inde-
Ipendence Of American republics, busts
of founders of nations, a general mu-
scum of American exhibits and IL
brary and art collection on American
subjects.
1t also is proposed to have an Amer
ican week in October every year for
the observance of the anniversary Of
the discovery of the Americas Plans
are now under way for an American
} week in October of this year, the
program to include Olympic games,
lregattas and races Of all descriptions.
