been fired to these. He said the noises
sounded to him like the motor was
backfiring," but that they might have
been caused by practice shots fired
by the aviators from the machine guns
on the planes. He said absolutely no
shots were fired from the ground near

The following highly imaginative
story sent over the wire last night
from Yuma, Ariz., was shown by AS
ISOLATED Press to have little basis in
| fact.
Yuma, Ariz.. Aug 1O.-Two air
planes of the American army patrol
were fired on by Mexican federal SOL
diers near Andrada, Lower California,
Mexico, six miles west of here yester-
day. They returned the fire and the
MeXicans scattered. According to wit
nesses of the affair. the planes were
on the American side of the interna-
tional boundary line.
The airplanes were on their way
back to their home base at Rockwell
field, San Diego. after making the
daily patrol trip to Yuma. The MeXi-
cans used a machine gun and rifles in
firing at them. The aviators did not at
first discover they We're being fired
at, but when they did they turned
their planes toward the international
line, spraying the country where the
Mexieans were with bullets from their
machine guns.
1t is not known whether any Mexi-
cans were hit. but it is not thought
any were killed, The names of the
officers plotting the planes are un-
known here.
After the Mexicans had fled the
planes circled over Andrada a few
times and then went on to Rockwell
field.
Aviators arriving today on patrol
reported all quiet along the border.
Witnesses of the affair said there
were about half dozen MeXicans in
the party which fired on the Ameri-
cans, and declared positively thai
they were Mexican soldiers. They
could not tell, however, whether they
were men of the forces under Gov.
ernor Cautu, Of Lower California or
a small party of troops who had wan
dered far west from some other COM
mand.
There are between fifty and 100
Mexican soldiers at Andrada. They
ar of Governor Cantu's forces. M
American troops are near here, the
closest post being at Calexico, sixty
miles west. The closest station of
American troops to the eastward is
Fort Huachuca, 1875 miles away.
Accounts given by different wit
nesses of the affair vary slightly, but
it appears the airplanes were about
1000 feet in the air and were quite
close to the international boundary
line when they were fired upon. One
witness estimated that planes were
1000 feet above and 1000 feet dis
tant from the Mexicans when fire
was opened The Mexicans were on
their own side of the line.
hviators who arrived here today
on the border patrol said the bullets
must have come very CLOSE to the Of
ficers fired upon, as otherwise theY
would not have known the MeXicans
were firing at them. They explained
that the noise of rifle and machine
gun shots on the ground would have
been drowned in the noise of the air
plane motors.
The clash occurred In the vicinity
of large irrigation work, on the
Colorado river, on which approx
mately 500 men are employed. Many
of these men, their attention attract |
ed by shots fired by the MeXicans, |
saw the airplanes turn and. swinging |
downward, fire at the Mexicans, who |
soon scattered.

Shipping Disorganized.

Already Liverpool shipping is utter
ly disorganiZed by the last strike.
Americans are being held up indefi-
nitely while thousands of Americans
are roaming about London unable to
get salings for eight weeks or more,
which cannot be guaranteed even then
because of the general uncertainty of
the labor situation.
Afternoon London papers feature
the Times statement that the success
of the policemen's strike meant "di-
rect action" by the workers on a vast
sca'e. T. is also declared that Swede
has confessed that he has been Civ
ing Hungarian funds to radical British
leaders to be used in agitation to sub
vert the government.
The bakers strike which, it was
hoped, would be ended today, still per
sists, and Londoners must bake their
own tread-or go without it tomorrow.
While these inconvenience are being
suffered because of strikes of various
kinds, the members of the Labor Tri-
pie alliance are balloting on the uues-
ton whether they shall hold up the
entire industry of the country unless
the triple alliances political de-
mands are conceded at once. These
are the withdrawal of troops from
Russia the abolition of CONSUMPTION,
and the release of conscientious OBJ
jectOrs. 1t is true that the govern
ment has climbed down already on all
three points, but the leaders of the
triple alliance, If baked of their
general strike on these terms, are
quite capable of providing another
three points that cannot be granted.
1t becomes clearer every day that

Would Control Prices.

The principal remedy suggested is
the control of prices by the state In
some cases it is suggested that state
ownership isr the only safeguard
against monopoly, Mention is made
also of the great value of such ri
val as the cooperative movement
which Will never enter into any COM
bination but which serves only the
public interest.
Combination is taking place over a
whole field not dealt with in the re-
port of the committee on trus s. There
is an intricate system Of interloCking
dlrectorates and shares held by one
company in another. The great ship
ping companies are now linked up
with a very large number of under
taKngs SO that the whole machine
could be set in motion at once.
Further, number of huge associa-
tons of manufacturers and employers
have been formed. The most impor-
tant of these is Federation of British
industries formed two years ago. This
is intended to protect capitalist inter
ests in all industries. 1t represents
capital of 100000 900 and is said
to have 121 members in the present
house of commons This latter fact
makes it appear unlikely that any
drastic action toward combination,
however monopolistic, win be taken
by this parliament

LONDON, Aug. lO.-The COMPARE
| tive failure of the police strike is ex-
ercising a salutary influence on the
general labor situation, There is now
evidence that this strike was promted
/ in conjunction with the revolutionary
element among the trade unions 10
create the widespread disorder and
anarchy at which the extremists are
aiming, If the price control were
generally withdrawn they looked to
having free hand The damage done
in Liverpool has shown what they may
expect If revolutionary forces should
get Roadway, and this has had a So
bering effect.
The stoppage of work on the South
London tube, which is only partial,
has been repudiated by the other
London tube employees, and the rail-
way mems executive committee re-
fused to sanction that or the engine
drivers strike on the southwestern
railway.
The workers have been the chief
sufferers by these strikes, and tho
workmen feel bitterly toward the in
stCators of them. j. II. Thomas, NJ
p. secretary of the Railway Mems
union, condemns the strikes in the
strongest terms.
Taking Lesson to Heart.
Meantime the strikers are talking
to Lord Asllwith. who had for years
acted as strike conciliator for the
bord of trade for Lloyd Georges per-
sonal interference in strike troubles
has always resulted in exclusive de-
mands being accepted, thus offering.
inducements to others to strike,
The government apparently has de-
cided to refrain from interference ex-
cept where public order is involved
Thus the Yorkshire golfers, who are
still out expecting government ap-
proaches, are being left severely alone
and it is declared they are feeling
pretty mad with their leaders. The
Manchester policemen would do any,
thing 70 get back their jobs" But the
government has declared finally that
no police striker will be taken back
under any circumstances.
The police strikers are now trying
to work on the non-striking police to
declare they will strike also unless
the strikers are reinstated and the |
strikers leader, Marsden. has been
threatening some mysterious reprisal
on the community unless their de- !
mands are conceded. Today the
Liverpool dock workers, who appear
to spend three-fourths of their time
on one sort of strike or another, and |
who have only Just gone in after a |
long spell of idleness, have decided |
that unless the Liverpool policemen
are taken back the lockers will strike
in sympathy

from competitive rivalry towards COM
bination as both inevitable and de-
slrable.' Ror this reason they consid-
err that nothing should be done to OBJ
struct against capitalist combinations,
such interference never having proved
effective in any case. But they held
strongly that steps should be taken to
safeguard the community from the
evils of monopoly and secure for it a
share of the benefits resulting from
the better organization of industry.

Ivey, was brought to an abrupt end

Ivey, was brought to an abrupt end by the arrest of the principals, who attempted to finish the fight with razors. Little Barney" Oldfield was the arresting cop. This item created lot of amusement. Before the boys were allowed to fight, their gloves were examined and found to contain heavy pieces of metal, which were removed amid much merrment and the fight was allowed to go on
 A light lunch was then partaken of, after which several more speech es were delivered by Messrs S. Howell, R. E. Burns, Wm. Taylor, Harry Capp, E. L. Laughlin and Steve O'Neill, and all spoke in favor of the power plant and the need of transportation facilities to the min ing region in the Kantishna. MT. O'Neill's speech was partly of a humorous nature and was received with roars of laughter, the speaker being heartily applauded at the con- clusion of his speech.
 The singing of "Auld Lang Syne" by the entire assemblage at about 4 a. m., brought to a termination most successful smoker and every body present felt that considerable amount of good had been accom- plished.
 This was the second "get to- gether" smoker given by the Nenana Commercial club, and it is the in tention of the club to give smokers of this nature periodically.

As regards the source of capital

As regards the source of capital he thought that it would not be a very difficult matter to convince Congress that an immediate need for a power plant existed and that such a plant would be very potent factor in the speedy development of the mineral resources of the North and thereby add to the na- tion's wealth and the geenral pros- perity of this territory, and fed eral aid demanded for it's construc- ton. In showing Congress the fundamental requirements for such plant it must be backed by facts and data that will stand the severest scrutiny and it must have the whole hearted support and cooperation of all the people. The question of en- listing private capital was not con- sidered
 The conclusions arrived at by Mr. Davis as result of the investiga- tions made so far, were that power plant is badly needed, and needed soon; market for the power in ample quantity exists and no serious difficulty is anticipated in being able to induce Congress to vote the nec- essary appropriation for the install lation of the plant. The remote possibility of enlisting private capi- tai to build the plant in the event of federal aid not being available still remained.
 MT. Davis was very heartily ap- plauded on resuming his seat. The chairman then called upon MT. Geo. Pennington, who delivered a brief address and paid a high tribute to Secretary Lane, who, he said was the best friend Alaska ever had. Mir. Pennington was followed by MT. w. A. Ryan, who made it clear that it would not be a very diff cult matter to interest Congress in the power plant project and, he thought, that the necessary appro- priation for its installation would be forthcoming. He urged cooper ation, without which nothing could be accomplished, and was quite in accord with what MT. Davis had said regarding the American Mining Con- gress, through which body it was proposed that Congress be approach ed, in regard to the power plant project.
 The smoker was also in the nature of farewell to Messrs Ryan, Pen nington and Laughlin, and all three gentlemen were furnished with credentials so that they may be able on behalf of the Commercial club of Nenana, to attend meetings of simi- lar bodies in the States, and in , other ways, do considerable mission | ary work for Alaska and boost for the country, and in honor of these gentlemen, the entire assemblage rose and sang "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow"
