LITHUANIAN RULE IN RUSSIA
History Shows That While 1t Lasted
SIavs Had Liberal and Just
Government.

One Of the fairest chapters in the
history Of Lithuania-whose life story
has been more tragic than happy
throughout all the centuries of its ex-
istence-is that dealing with her rule
over large part Of Russia during the
thirteenth, fourteenth and early years
of the fifteenth centuries.
Lithuania has been banded around
Europe and abused at every turn since
that time, but she can point with pride
to the proper and benevolent use Of
her political powers when she had
them.
Russian historians bear testimony to
the liberal rule of the Lithuanians over
the Russian people during this
epoch, and aver that the Russians en-
joyed the greatest liberty of thought,
speech, religion and education through
out the Lithuanians' regime.
Local self-government was harmon

ants, and the laws and institutions

Sailors Fine Record.

Admiral William B. Caperton, late
commander in chief of the Pacific fleet,
who retired from active duty June
Both, had an unusual career. In the
world war Admiral Caperton had the
difficult task, requiring the greatest
naval skill and diplomatic tact, of pa
trolling the Pacific waters and of hav-
ing close relations with the govern
ments of South and Central America.
Since his graduation from the United
States naval academy, in 1875, he has
seen active service in all waters, was
in Cuban waters during the Spanish
American war, and had much service
in Latin America in the subsequent
revolutions, including the Mexican dis
turbance.

Washington, Sept. 3. The Wa
Department was still waiting today fol
detailed report from General Dick
man, commanding the Southern De
partment, regarding the attack upor
Captain McNabb and Lieutenant
Johnson of the Air Force. who were
fired upon, and Captain McNabt
wounded. on the border near Laredo
Texas. yesterday. General DickmaT
wired the department that he had re
ceived a brief telephone report from
Colonel Beaumont b. Buck, in com
mand at Laredo, and that Colone
Buck informed him that an investigat
! ion was under way and that further
and more 9oCniplete report would be
made as soon, as that investigation
was concluded, ,.s.r,r
II was pointed out at the State
| Department. that the absence of inter
national regulations governing the
use of aircrat made it necessary for
analogous rules to be applied, and in
such circumstances the fight of an
airplane over foreign territory would
be analogous to the invasion of such
territory. 1t has been reported that
the American aviators when fired upon
were over Mexican territory. If a
flight over foreign territory is con
templated, the normal way, it was
said at the department, would be to
get permission from the foreign
Government for the flight
There was no disposition at the
To ftlu
by Mexican soldiers upon members
of Americas armed forces construct
yely or actually in Mexico in the same
category as the shooting or holding
of American soldiers by Mexican ban
ats. 1t was admitted that If the two
aviatcrs recently captured and held
for ransom by Mexican mandits had
been taken into custody by Mexican
soldiers, a question might have arisen
as to the right of this Government
to send an expedition into Mexico to
recover them.
All indications today pointed to the
improbability of the United States
making the most recent occurrence
On issue between the two Governments
1t is not unlikely, however 1T was
believed in some quarters, that the
Mexican Government itself would
make representations to the State De-
partment on the subject.
The State Department still with
holds from publication the recent Mex
lean protest against the hot trail ex-
pediticn recently against the bandits
who were OBTAINING two American
Army aviators.
It was said today that the investiga-
ton of the Mexican situation by the
Foreign Relations Committee of the
Senate would probably not start be-
fore next Monday or Tuesday. The
first subpoenanes for witnesses will
be sent out on Friday by Major d. Nj.
Jackson of ri Paso, the counsel for
the committee.

CARRANZA TROOPS
FIRED ON AIRPLANE
They Claim 1t Was Soaring Their
Horses and They Meant to
Drive Ii Higher

San Antonio, Texas. Sept. 3.-Mex-
lean cavalry troops fired on the Ameri-
can army airplane near Laredo on
Tuesday morning because it was flying
so low that it frightened the horses
while grazing causing them to scatter
according TO an official statement re-
ceiyed today by the Mexican Consul in
San Antonio from Consul Garcia
Laredo,
The attack resulted in the slight in
jury of Captain David w. McNabb,
who was flying the plane with Lieut.
enant Won de b. Johnson. Several
bullets pierced the pane.
1t was the purpose of the Mexican
troopers merely to cause the American
aviators to fly higher and cease scar
ing the horses, the statement said
he communication did not indicate the
altitude of the airplane at the time
The Mexican troopers fired into it
except that ii was flying very low"
These reports, it was said showed
that the American aviators were nj
Texas territory at all times except
for a few seconds when they attempt
ed to ascend rapidly to escape the
bullets and circle away.
A report from the ayiators, ac-
ccrding TO unofficial information,
stated they saw a group of Mexicans
near the Rio Grande and descended to
a low altitude to investigate, and
that as they passed the point the
Mdxlcans suddenly rose and opened
fire on them NV
It,was indicated that the first Off
ciai announcement OF the attack prob
ably would come from Washington
