form arduous duties. Most of them
have been held for limited military

Famous Billings Case
May Be Reopened in
Forthcoming Politics

London, Aug. e.-The famous Bill
lings case may not be ended. Cap
tain Spencer, whose story Of the
German book of 1900 names stirred
the entire world. is to run for Par
Lament as the "vigilante" candidate,
according to an announcement by
Pemberton Billings.
Spencer, in the MaUde Allan libel
case. declared he had informed prac-
tically every member of the Govern
ment of the existence Of the book con-
tanning names Of prominent English
men and women upon whom German
agents had some hold, by blackmail
or otherwise. His story was so start
ling that the case developed finally
into a siege of medical testimony in
an attempt to determine whether
Spencer was sane.
During the trial Spencer said he
was unable to get any action regard
ing his revelations even from political
leaders. Following the trial there
was denunciation OF the case in gem
eral, its sensational half revelations
and innuendos. The press, after be-
littIing the entire matter and making
pointed leader" remarks about the
individuality OF airing such an &C
cumulation OF unproven charges.
dropped the case as quickly as pos
sible.
A political campaign, even in a bye
election, in which Spencer becomes
the central figure might conceivably
reopen the entire case.

Wounded Hun Officer
Surprised by Marines at
Battle of the Marne

Paris, Aug. 10. - How the Ger
mans received q mighty unpleasant
surprise At the Marne whom they
first clashed with the United States
Marines were explained by a
wounded officer OF a Baden regk
ment. who ives captured.
He asserted that when the Ger
man aviators and observers report
ed the presence Of the new troops
barring their way in the region
northwest OF Chateau-Thierry they
thought their adversaries were
Italians. owing 10 the fact that the
uniform OF the Marines IS nearly the
same shade OF olive-drab as the
Italians.
we knew that there were q num-
ber of Italian labor battalions
operating with the French" said
the Baden officer. and we OF course
were familiar with their greenish
uniform. When our observers re-
ported that troops were coming up
clab in olive-green uniforms we
thought, OF course. that the French
had been forced to throw the Italia n
labor units into the line.
TT was only after q couple ot
wounded marines had fallen tnks
our hands that we learned Il was
Americans barring our progress ana
not Italians. Afterward our OBJ.
serving officers were severely rep
rimmanded for not having been able
to differentiate between the Italisa
and the American Marine Uniform
