Chicago Troops Don
 Australian Uniform
 and Go Over the Top

Washington, August 14.-The 16 Chicago boys recently decorated by King George for valor probably were enga ged in the Fourth of July fight at Hamel, and won their 1aurels because they were not to be denied their share of the fighting.
 It is now known that just before the zefo hour the British commander felt some of the American troops had rot been long enough in training to go over the top, and ordered them out of the line. With much protesting of re- grets, the American soldiers retired and their Australian comrades in arins with other Americans went over and helped take the town.
 When the casualties were counted, American soldiers were found in the dressing stations dressed in Austral- ian uniforms.
 It developed the Americans, after re- tiring to the rear, had found Austral- ian comrades not in the fighting. traded uniforms with them and then worked their way back to the Austral ian units and went over the top with them.
 The troops which performed the he- roic feat have not fully been identified but 1t is known Illinois troops were in the fighting that day before Hamel and 1t is believed the IS Chicago boys decorated by the King probably were among the daredevil heroes who were not to be Kept out of their chance

COTTON CROP IN
 POOR CONDITION Hot and Dry Weather Is Blamed for Deteriora-
 ton of Crop

Washington, August 14-The poor condition of the cotton crop in the western portion of the belt was not only further intensified by the contin- ued absence of rains and high temper atures, but in localities east of the Mis- sissippi. where conditions had been satisfactory, the crop last week made virtually no advancement. the nations. weather and crop bulletin, issued to- day announced.
 The statement continues:
 "As result of good showers or moisture from preceding rain. cotton made generally satisfactory progress in the Carolinas, Florida, much of Lou isiana and southeastern Tennessee but elsewhere throughout the belt, lit- tie growth was made and the crop ac- tually deteriorated, except in a few local areas. The crop is in only con- dition in Georgia, due to shedding. rust blackroot and insect depredations, but in many localities the plants continue vigorous, with new blooms that should mature with favorable weather. There are also complaints of shedding, rust and red spider activity in many other eastern localities.
 The crop made fairly good progress in Louisiana, except in the southwest portion, where much damage result sd

this each voter placed a ballot, either for or against the amendment. 1ncom- plete returns indicate this question carried overwhelmingly, and, although the state of Alabama knew nothing about the Dallas election on the amend ment. 1t has carried and an anti-amend- ment senator must vote for it
 Nothing but the election was dis cussed at the state building Wedncs- day Few offices were able to trans ast business, because of the absence of officials. Governor Henderson IS expected at his office Thursday, and at this time the capitol is expected to take on it's natural appearnce.
 John Purifoys secretary of state, and one of the candidates for governor, was at his office Wednesday early. He appeared to be one of the few not interested in the election. He found time during the afternoon to go through letters in his office.
 John Wallace, who was eliminated from the race early Tuesday night, was away from the capitol Judge Charles P. Teasley, who spent approximately s10,e00 in his race. was the third to be eliminated a very short time after the returns began to come in.

MontevideO Strike
 Is Not Yet Settled

Monteviedo, August 14.-The general strike here was continued today with no settlement in sight and further casualties added to those growing out of the disorders accompanying the strike movement. These last included another death, when soldier ,sabred to death a man who resisted an order to move on. Several persons who were playing no part in the disturbances were wounded yesterday when the troops charged down a street to clear it. Some of these were women and children and one was a blind man. They had been unable to get back into their houses from the street in time to save themselves.
 Milk and meat for the hospitals were being delivered today under Red Cross flags, while meat for public consump- tion was moving under heavy police guard.
 Nurses in the hospitals have present. ed an ,iltimatum, threatening to strike unless they are given 25 per cent increase in pay.

 Attract Prey

An Atlantic Port, August 14.--Seven Frederick R. Kellogg, which was sunk by German submarine off the At lantic coast last night are missing, ac- cording to 35 other members of the crew, who arrived here today. Those rescued were picked up at sea by an American steamer.
 Permitted later to detail their ex- periences members of the kellogg's crew declared that while making for shore they saw submarine A dory suddenly rose out of the water, they said. and from one of many holes in its keel a periscope protruded. The dory floated for sometime, the men asserted, as though designed to attract passing steamships toward it, then dis appeared.

The previous deterioration in Texas contin- ued generally and the crop will be Q failure in some sections of the state: shedding. premature opening, and top blooming are becoming general.

Hubbard Bros. X Co.'s Letter

New York. August 14--Some showers
 fell in extreme eastern Texas and there
 was a good rainfall at Luling in the
 southwest. which will be beneficial local
 ly. On the whole however, no relief
 was afforded to the drouth district, and
 the predictions are for clear weather,
 Prices made new high record on scat
 tered coverings of some of the cotton
 sold yesterday, But the market was not
 active and appeared to be without any important buying power in the early aft
 ernoon. The weekly weather report was the worst of the season and called at tention to the continued severe deteriora- ton west of the Mississippi The situa- ton does not change except in the sense that we come slowly nearer to the time when the crop will move in volume. and there is naturally much doubt as to the maintenance of present prices in view of the difficulty in exports.-Hubbard Bros. & Go.

UNUSUAL PHOTOPLAY AND VAUDEVILLE BILL AT LOEW'S, LAST HALF
'aThe Golden Bird' is Most Novel Act in Vaudeville = Kitty Gordon
 Seen in Mere Players"

The bill for Loewss Bijou for the last half of the week is pleasing in it's en- tirety and consists of wide variety. The headlner, "The Golden Bird pre- sented by Hatties Kitchener, is the most novel act in vaudeville. This feathered marvel is a tiny canary, which if gifted with the power to sing melodies and to initiate any tune which Miss Kitchener, who is a violinist of marked ability, plays on the stage To prove that there is no collision and that the bird actu- ally sings the melodies, it is carried into the audience and the public is permitted to name the song to be played on the violin, The bird listens a moment, usu- ally cooking his tiny head to listen, and then starts in on the melody. continuing even after the melody has stopped.
 Dave Rayfield and company will also be seen in one of the few clever ventrilo- qtist acts now in vaudeville. It Is the we'll known act of Ed Rayfield and has brought rollicking laughter to scores of big time audiences. The turn will be helped along in na little degree by the elaborate setting which is provided for it.
 Burnt cork will be with us again, such as only Mel Klee, of minstrel fame. can furnish. His songs, gags and natural sense of humor make him one of vaude- ville's foremost entertainers and the fact that much of his comedy is original and spontaneous gives his act a refreshing atmosphere.
 The bill will be introduced by Delmore and Lowery, a couple of nifty dancers with plenty of the glad rags" They do a little singing. Ruth Pecan, that clever girl with the fancy gowns and the dew ilish toes, comes with lot of pep. steps. and songs. There is a treat here.
 Merely Players will be the big Fox feature photoplay in which Kitty Gordon stars, supported by Irving Cummins, George MacQuarrie, Johnny Hines and Muriel Ostriche. No expense has been spared in the staging of this production and Kitty Gordon in the role of far seeing MT. Trent, wears numerous mag nificent gowns with her usual stateli- ness There is plenty of action in the film and the photop1ay is high-class and the lighting extremely fine. The suport- ing cast is comical and the climax with it's unexpected twists, is unique and well handled.
