Shops and Troops Charge.
BY the Associated Fress.

QUEENSTOWN, Aug, ia party OF
men fired rifles to-day on Rocky Island
in the harbor behind Haulbowline ISL
and. The military on Rocky Island
replied with machine guns. The firing
continued for some time. It is not
known whether there were any casual
ties.
Rocky Island is the smallest of the
three islands in Cork harbor of Queens
town. 1t contains a powder magazine.
Haulbowline. the next In size, contains
the naval dock yard, and is the depot
for ordnance stores. Fort Westmore-
land Is situated on Spike Island, just
opposite the entrance to the harbor.

MEXICO GUSTS
BRITISH ENVOY
Affr0nt to Great Britain MAY
Force Wilson to Take
Action.
NO CAUSE DISCOVERED
Passports Handed to Charge
Likely to Stir Two Nations
Against Carranza.
10 CAUSE DISCOVERED
Special Despotch to run sun.

WASHINGTON, Aug. ia new COM
plication has arisen in the Mexican
imbroglio which may force President
Wilson to abandon all hope of main
tanning amicable relations with Car
rama. The Mexican First Chief, 1t is
learned here, has directed that pass
ports be handed to acting British
Charge dAffaires Cummings in Mex
leo city. This amounts to expelling
this British representative from the
country. II this affront to British
prestige is not corrected by Carranza
it is freely predicted that President
Wilson will go to considerable lengths
to make Carranza feel the full weight
of the displeasure of the Government
Of the United States.
Details as to why the British
Charge has been expelled are lacking.
The British Embassy has heard the
news and communicated 1t to the State
Department, whence 1t was relayed al
cnce to the White House.
In the absence of definite information
NiPAOhiato Nah Ohhy SUI hiAoC eAAC iCocOh
for this action against the British repre-
sentative. One theory is that Carranza
has felt hurt over the fact that Great
Britain has neglected TO send a Minister
10 Mexico. Another Is that a recent
speech of the British Charge displeased
Mexican officialdom. A third surmise Is
that Carranza may hold Great Britain
and the United States jointly responsible
for having blacklisted Mexico at the
Paris Peace Conference. Anyway the
action against the British Charge came
az a distinct surprise and may portend
interesting developments.
As there are extensive British in
terests in Mexico 1t Is regarded as GER
tain that the British Government will
not for a moment tolerate any act on
the part OF Carranza which might place
British property or lives in jeopardy.
The British presumably will demand
that President Wilson guarantee protec-
Lion or permit protection to be extended.
This would tend to force President Will
sons hand. because Great Britain has
made II clear that a 'watchful waiting"
policy of inactivity will not be indorsed.
1t Is recalled that the attack on a
single British subject back in 1913
nearly brought on war with Mexico and
forced apologies and promise OF protec-
ton.
