SUGAR SHORTAGE. IS MORE ACUTE.
Housekeepers Are Urged to Further Saving As Step
 to Victory.

Washington, July 26-The saving of sugar by the American people in larger quantities than at any time since the entry of the United States into the war was asked today by the Federal Food Administration. The shortage, it is stated, is becoming more acute, due to the partial failure of the cane and sugar beet sugar crops and the increasing acquisitions for sweetstuffs for the American sol diers which are coming from Gen. Pershing.
 Households which recently were al- lotted three pounds a month for each persons are asked now to reduce this quantity to two pounds and to em- ploy substitutes like syrups whenever possible. Each pound of sugar saved now is a step toward victory for the American armies.
 Candy and sweetstuffs are being given to the troops of Gen. Pershing as they return from the trenches and the fighting for it's recuperative ef- fleets. The officers of the American army have found it to be one of the strongest factors in maintaining the
 44Sl SuSS O4 IllS al IIl4CS dllu preventing depression and melancholy among the soldiers. The French and English are employing it for the same purpose. The Germans have re- sorted to beers and wines with the same object in view.
 The shortage of sugar in the United States is due primarily to the de- creased production of sugar cane in the Mississippi delta and gulf coas, country and the small crop of sugar beets in the west. The cane crop in Porto Rico has fallen behind the expecta tions of the planters and the shortage in ships will prevent the inn portation of sugar from Java and the Philippines.
 "The situation is so serious that every possible means of conservation should be employed" it was stated today at the Food Administration.
 The canning of food and fruits with. out the use of sugar whenever possi ble is asked by the Food Administra. tion. Limitation of it's use during meals to actual necessities is request ed too. Relief from the shortage i. in prospect as soon as the crops ot cane and beets now growing in the tropics are harvested. This source i! expected to provide a supply by the i first of the year.

OCEAN LINER IN U-BOAT FIGHT
Steamer Attacked Off New foundland and Shelled, Re
 turns Fire and Escapes.

New York, July 29.-Passengers of a British liner that arrived in an Allan tic port yesterday reported that their vessel was shelled by submarine last Friday afternoon south of Newfound- land. The U boat came to the surface several miles away and opened fire
 The liner turned so that her stern was toward the submarine and then started full speed ahead For three quarters of an hour her stern gun crew exchanged shots with the U beat. The aim of the Germans was bad and the liner escaped unscathed.
 Before the liner had outdistanced the submarine a second U boat was sighted in the distance. To those on board the liner it seemed to be chas- ing another vessel. Passengers said that it was afterward learned by wire less that the second submarine had chased British freighter, which suc- ceeded in sinking her.
 Another scare was thrown into the passengers on Saturday morning when several submarines were sighted i only short distance away. For the l third time since the ship left Eng | land there was rush for the lifeboat stations and the ships gunners opened fire on the first of the U boats. Three shots, all of which went wild, were | fired before it was discovered that the
 submarines were American craft

MARINES ON DUTY |. IN PHILADELPHIA
 BECAUSE OF RIOTS
Sent Out With 300 Police men to Prevent Further
 Race Clashes.

Philadelphia, July 29.---Three hun dred policemen and 60 marines were on duty today to prevent a recurrence of race riots in South Philadelphia in which two men were killed and sev- era1 scores were injured yesterday.
 The trouble occurred in the section between Washington avenue and Dickinson street, 18th and 30th streets, which contains many small thorough fares inhabited by negroes.
 Armed battles were waged from early Sunday morning until last mid night between gangs of negroes on one side and white residents, with the police and members of the home de- fense reserve striving vainly to pre- serve order.
 The men killed were Hugh Lavery and Thomas McVay, a patrol wagon driver The death list may be en- larged as several of the persons wounded are in serious condition
 According to the police the disorder was the result of an attempt by ne- groes to encroach on streets that up to this time had been occupied solely by white families.
 A negro was shot and killed today in South Philadelphia. This makes three deaths as a result of the disor- der, two men, one of them a police man, having been shot dead yester- day. More than three score persons have been injured, some of them seri- ously enough to be sent to hospitals
 The negro killed today had been arrested by two policemen and tried to escape by slashing them with ra- zor. As he was taken into a police station some one in the crowd fired shot which stuck him in the back.
