ANOTHER SCORE
TO BE SETTLED
Capt. McNSbb was Flying Low When
Volley Came, Wounding
Him.

Laredo, Tex, Sept. Alfred up
on from the Mexican side Of the Rio
Grande, Capt. David W. McNebb
United States aviation corps, was
slightly wounded Tuesday while on
aerial patrol duty along the interna-
tional boundary northwest of here.
With Lieut.. Won De Be johnson
Capt. McNabb was flying slowly up
the river close to the water, when
suddenly group Of Mexicans fired
volley Of shots at the airplane
wounding McNabb near the ear. Sew.
eral shots pierced the planes wings
Col. Beaumont B. Buck, comman-
der of the Laredo district, with head
quarters at Fl. Mcintosh here, said
tonight all that is known of the at
tack is that the firing was from 3
point where an outpost of Mexican
federal soldiers was known to be To-
Gated.
Colonel Buck promptly forwarded
report of the attack to Maj. Gen
Jos. T. Dickman, commander of the
Southern department, at San Anton.
10. I, 1t was indicated that no action
would be taken by officers here ex-
cept on instructions from General
Dickman.
The Mexican consul here said to-
night that he had heard a "detrimen-
tai rumor' to the effect that Mexicans
had fired on an American airplane
but he "did not believe it."
Capt. McNabb and Lieut.. johnson
reported fully on the attack to Col
Buck, but neither would make a state
ment to the press. McNabb's wound
is not serious. His home, according
to officials here, is Bedford, Ind.
The attack on the aviators took
place shortly after a. m. about six
teen miles from Laredo, near the
mouth of Santa Isabel creek, while
the airplane was flying low, hugging
the American side of the Rio Grande
There was no warning from the at
tackers, who appeared suddenly on
the Mexican bank and fired severa,
volleys at the plane before it could
get out of range. According to first

OVER BILLION SAVED IN
CONCELLING CONTRACTS

Washington, d. ca saving O
more than>a million and half dol
lars on war material contracts ha
already been realized by the Wa
Department. These are millions o.
dollars worth of contracts yet to b,
adjusted or cancelled and it is prob
able that the net saving will exceed
two billion dollars. Settlements made
to date represent an average pay
ment of approximately fourteen
cents on the dollar for war material
that had been negotiated for on the
long war program. Conversely, il
represents saving of Sc cents on
the dollar
At the time the armistice was
signed it was necessary to suspend
and later cancel the major portions
of contracts and claim aggregating
more than $3.50, 100000. These in
,cluded supplies that would have Heen
needed for the engineering and con.
struction divisions of the army, the
purchase and storage division, the
chemical warfare section and the
munitions board, the ordnance de-
partment, the director of explosives
and nitrate division, the air service
segnal corps and other branches
Much of the material under contract
had already been started and manu-
facturers had already laid plans and
secured credits and made other pre-
parations for producing great dea,
of balance.
Up to the second week in August
the War Department had already can
celled 10000 of these contracts and
claims, either by outright cancella.
ton, where that was possible, or by
liquidation through part payment
In nearly 10000 Of these, or approx
imately 50 per cent, no payment was
made. The actual figures show con-
tracts totaling $1,S07,652,O00 can
celled by the department upon pay
ment of about $252,727,OOO, evil
dencing an actual saving of approx
imately $1,247,OOO,0O to date. The
work of cancellation is going ahead
at the rate of about $50,OOO,0OO
worth of contracts a week. Con-
tracts for subsistence and medica.
supplies did not fall within these fig
ures. These supplies were needed
up to the very end of demobiliza-
ton and the army had more time to
adjust their delivery under order.

ESCHEAT..
LAND SUITS
One In Christian County Held Of
Doubtful Merit By Attorney
General.

Judge Joel E. Childress, of the
Letcher County Court, dismissed es-
cheat suits filed by Clayton B. Blak-
ey, Louisville, and Theodore B. Bla-
key, Beattyville, against 10000
acres of coal and timber land in Let
cher county. Judge Childress ruled
that Blakey & Blakey, as attorneys
were without sufficient authority to
enter the suits.
The Courier-J ournal says the at
torneys had contract to get SO.
per cent fee out of the proceeds of
the suits. Similar blanket suits in.
volving hundreds of thousands of
acres of valuable oil and coal lands
valued at millions Of dollars were
filed in Pike, Letcher, Lee, Estill
Christian and Muhlenberg counties
The allegations were that the lands
were being held by corporations, and
had not been used by them in the
operations of their business, as pro-
vided by law and should revert 10
the State.
AS many of the corporations effect
ed by the suits declare their business
have been hampered by the proceed
ings and others assert their very ex-
istence is at stake. Attorney Genera
Morris says he doubts the merits Of
these suits so far brought to his at
tention.

able profits on the sale and furnish
ing Of food, clothing and other ne

ment.
President Wilson helped to serve
ices and other refreshments. While
he was making his rounds among the
disabled soldiers, one of them, Pri-
vate Jos. Rychard of New York, who
had camera, asked the privilege Of
"snapping" the President with plates
and spoons in his hand. When the
President had complied smilingly
Private RICHARD thanked him and
then called out that it was the "first
picture ever taken of a President do
ing 'K. p" Kitchen police.) This
provoked laughter in which President
Wilson joined heartily.
When the playing of the Star
Spangled Banner by the Marine band
announced the appearance Of Presi-
dent and Mrs. Wilson all the men, in.
GLIDING the many on crutches, arose
and remained standing. All were
then introduced by 1. H. Hoover
chief usher of the white house. Those
most severely wounded were in whee,.
chairs attended by Red Cross nurses
Some of these were out of the hos
pital for the first time in 18 months.
President and Mrs. Wilson con-
versed with the soldiers, inquired
concerning their care at the hospita
and took deep interest in their re-
citals of experience in France.
