FIGHT At TAMP|CO|


preached his ship a shot was fired,
and a Mexican guard there, seeing
him coming, placed him under de-
tention. 1t was also asserted that
others started to beat him with the
butts of their rifles. The sailor
fought back the best he could, and
as he drew near the ship, he called
to his men for assistance.
They needed no second invitation,
one passenger said, and all who
were in sight or hearing joined in
the fray. Seeing reinforcements
coming some of the Mexicans
opened fire. No one was hit on the
ship.
The naval guard then secured
arms and as the firing con-
tinued, they returned the shots with
the result that two Mexicans fell.
With the show of arms the Mexicans
fed, leaving the gunner's mate free
to return to his ship with his men,
Sound of the firing attracted a
considerable crowd. but no further
demonstration was made. | hreats
were heard, however, and during the
"a hours that the Monterey was de-
tanned pending the investigation of
the incident, every precaution was
taken to guard against surprise at
tack.
The two gunboats were sufficient
ly close so that they could have rem
dered assistance to the Monterey
had it been required. In addition to
hand arms, the Monterey carries
gun, mounted on her deck, placed
there during the war as a protec-
ton against submarines,
On arrival of the Monterey hare
today, the gunner's mate and his
men went to the navy yard to make
an official report of the matter. Off
GERS of the ship were also queS-
toned by naval authorities.
Left to Diplomacy.
Washington, Dec. 15.-The clash
between the armed guard of the
Ward liner Monterey and Mexican
soldiers at Tampico has been left to
settlement and is now the
subject of negotiations between the
American and Mexican govern
ments. This announcement was
made by the State department.
The departments announcement
said the "Mexicans started the dis
turbances' by attacking and injur-
Ing the commander of the Monte
rcy'S armed guard, who had gone
ashore.
"The Department of State" said
the announcement, is investigating
a clash that occurred between Mexi-
can soldiers and a member of the
armed guard of the American steam
er Monterey, which occuerd at
J ampico on November %. The
Mexicans started the disturbance.
Department of State advices are
20 the effect that the affair occurred
early in the morning that the Amer
can in charge of the guard, who had
gone ashore, was attacked by the
Mexican soldiers and that he was in
ured by the Mexicans. One of the |
Mexican soldiers was killed and an
other injured, during the distur-
oance.
The Tampico authorities sought |
o have the armed guard aboard the |
'hip surrendered to them. The
Hhole subject, however, was left to
diplomatic settlement, and is being
AIKEN up between the State depart
rent and the Mexican government
through the American embassy at
Mexico City"

COMPANY I" HELD
SNAPPY DRILL

The first regular drill under the
tutelage of new instructor. Lieu
tenant Hammond, was held last night
at the Guy Hall. Ab0u. 5 men all
swerel to roll call and one of t.,e
best i-ai.i rg perioI: size the wcr,.
was taken up was experienced.
In addition to the drill and exer-
else work. Lieutenant Hammond gave
several short talks to the men along
the line Of military department, which
was very interesting and which will
be of great value to those fortunate
ones who are selected for army serv-
ice in the near future.
Decided improvement was shown in
the close order drill and the company
was complimented by the drill master
before dismissal. In explanation of
this, several reasons were presented.
Some of the men said it was the cool
weather, but most of them gave full
credit to Lieutenant Hammond. While
they realize he is now reaping the
benefit resulting from Captain Lau-
rims painstaking efforts when the
company was composed of rockies,
they believe Lieutenant Hammond
has virile personality that exacts
a snappy, energetic response to his
orders and instructions.

The feature of the entertainment is
massive spectacle, "Our Allies" as
the closing scene of the show. The
finale is staged in three scenes as a
beautiful, spectacular, patriotic scene.
Starting with the little red school

one through the country store and

"Camp Allspice."
The House OF Cards a reproduc-
ton OF Canheld's house of hazard and
reproductions in life Of the statuary
contained therein makes one of the
many beautiful scenes. The chorus is
exceptionally we'll selected.
The chicken" chorus is led by such
clever stars as Kate Pullman as

employment bureau to be opened
Monday at the Chamber OF Commerce

ready left positions to replace men,
will be able to register at the office
of the chamber on the 18th floor OF
the Woodmen of the World building.
Complete records OF the capabilities
of all women will be kept at the bu-
reau Offices. Records already COM
piled by the Douglas County Woman's
Council of Defense last fall have been
turned over to the employment COM
mittee, as we'll as the lists of the MEM
bership of woman's clubs. These will
be analyzed to determine if possible
the ability of every woman in the
county to fill a position,
The bureau will work in complete
cooperation with the Woman's Coun-
Gil of Defense and the United States

house. Women will be able to register

were no casualties,
The Germans dropped five bombs
on Thursday night and six on Friday
night. two of the latter failing to ex-
plode. The hospital tents cover sew
eral acres. The nearest bomb struck
within 20 yards of one large tent.
Along the Vesle the French and
Americans have continued their ,har-
assng artillery fire day and night, the
Germans replying at intervals. There
was no infantry action on either side
and the line remains unchanged.
The Germans apparently are con-
fining their efforts to the air, their
bombing machines Friday night
reaching points along the Marne south
and southwest of Fismes, endeavor-
ing to bomb bridges and railway CEN
tiers and places wherever they thought
troops mightsbe quartered. Antiair-
craft guns quickly drove off the enemy
before they could do much damage.
At some places the Germans dropped
bombs on either side of the Marine
