Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

HAVANA, July 19.-Senor Ignacfo Bravo Betancourt, representative in. Cuba of General Felix Diaz, the Mexi- denied stories to the effect that Gen. eral Diaz had issued a proclamation in which he indicated his intention of abandoning the campaign to over throw the CarranZa government. He. declared that General DiaZ is pushing the campaign more energetically than. ever, as shown by documents received from the latter's headquarters confirm ing the capture by the rebels of Fuer- to Angel, state of Oaxaca, which the CarranZa government had declared closed to commerce ''so as not to con fess," the statement says, that that port is in the hands of Diaz.
 Senor Betancourt also has received official notification of the taking of Huamantla. General Diaz further re- ports the capture of Tuxtepec by Gen eral Martinez with 1,500 men including number of former federal officers. In this action, nine Carranza officers were killed and 30 wounded, 10 of whom died while being conveyed to Cordoba.
 The statement concludes with the declaration that General Diaz cam paign has not been as vigorous as was expected owing to the extensive rain fall which has resulted in the caving in of three tunnels on the Mexican rail- road near Metlac.

DRY FORCES SCORE
 NEW SUCCESSES IN
 FIGHT ON "BOOZE'

WASHINGTON. July 19.-Attacks on drastic provisions of the prohibition enforcemet bill fell down again today in the house while the dry forces romped through the measure section by section and put the lid on debate at a nod from their leader.
 It was a great field day for the drys. They took control at the start, refused to permit house leaders to take out five minutes for consideration of an import ant money measure and keept on at work again tonight in an effort to pass the bill at one sitting.
 While the house was knocking down amendment after amendment to liber- ize the measure, Representative Igo, democrat of Missouri, announced he would offer a substitute that could be enforced without the annual expen- diture of S50,000,000 and without a standing army"
 There is no provision in the lgo bill for enforcement of war time prohibit 1 tion, nor does it define intoxicating | liquors and persons manufacturing, | selling, importing or exporting liquors would be subject to a $500 fine and one year imprisonment for the first of fense There was the utmost confusion | at times during the day and often half | a dozen were asking recognition with 1 so much chatter some members com plained they did not know what the 1 house was doing. Several amendments offered by Chairman Vostead of the l judiciary committee, in charge of the | bill went through. The house also accepted one by Representative Miller republican, Washington requiring doctors issuing whiskey prescriptions at drug store offices to have main- tained such offices for period of one year prior to passage of the bill.
 The search and seizure section de- scribed as the bills most drastic pro- vision was approved with added re- strictions
 By vote Of 73 to 70 an amendment designed to protect from invasion a home in the same building with store in which liquor was sold, was defeated over the protest of a few ardent pro- hibitionists who declared there was danger of congress going too far The house adopted T to 51 an amendment which would permit search of private dwelling used for the sale of intoxi- cants.
 Without completing the bill, the house adjourned at 10:30 D. m. The measure will be taken up again Mon day.

" ouJd Confer
 Highest R0nks
 On W0r Heroes

WASHINGTON, July 19.-Presi- dent Wilson's recommendation that the highest titles of the ser vice be bestowed permanently on Generals Pershing and March and AdmiraIs Sims and Benson, was followed today by introduction of bills for that purpose by the chair man of the house military and naval committees.
 Chairman Kahn of the military committee did not name General Pershipg or General March in the two biiia he presented, but so iden- tified by their records as to make them the only ones eligible to per n1anent rank as generals. He be- Iieves that technically the presi- dent should make the appoint ments with senate confirmation. The Pershing bill would repeal any provision that would enable any other officer of the army to take rank of "precedence" over him.
 Chairman Butler of the naval committee named AdmiraIs Ben son and Sims in his bill, which would direct that they shall not be placed upon retired list except upon their own application"

 URGED BY DUKE OF ORLEANS IN LETTER
TRepubIlcan A. p. Leased Wire1

PARIS, July 19.-Prince Louis Phil lips, duke of Orleans and pretender to the throne in France, has written a letter to his supporters, it was learned today, asking them to main tain their sacred union" in the work of reconstruction and to oppose any at tempts at revolution.

 s. "One more hatred in the bruised heart of France will cure nothing in my heart"
 After recalling his injunction to his followers at the beginning of the war to join in a sacred union to work and fight for France first of all. the letter traces the program of the future which "victory opens for France" as follows
 Renewal of their old activity in the devastated regions, revival of agricul- tural industries; readjustment of na- ton production to new instruments and new methods; just recompense for labor; revision of the military laws: administrative reform through decen- tralization and organizations a regional system of government; revision of the financial system and the maintenance of order in the face of revolutionary agitation"

GREAT PACIFIC ARMADA MOVES
 FUR WEST SEAS
Passage of Fleet Through Panama to Be First Real Test of Canal-San Diego Stop Scheduled = Great Ceremony Planned When Ships Arrive at Golden Gate

OLD POINT COMFORT, Va, July 19.-The Pacific fleet was well on its way tonight on the first leg of it's long voyage to the west coast.
 None of the pomp and ceremony which marked the departure of the world girdling Atlantic fleet from Hampton Roads in 1907 attended the sailing today of the armada under com mand of Rear Admiral Hugh Rodman.
 This is being reserved for the en- trance into the Golden Gates about the middle of August where President Will son is expected to review them.
 The super r-dreadnaughts and swift destroyers weighed anchor at S:30 a. m. and turned their prows seaward on a voyage that is to furnish the first real test of the Panama canal and carry to the people of the Pacific seaboard the first great fleet assigned to their defense.
 Swinging out of tn capes. the fleet turned southward in cruising formation with tHe six super r-dreadnaughts which with two others. are to form the back bone of the Pacific naval defense steaming within a triangular screen made by 50 destroyers. In that for nation the ships, will remain until the end of the first leg of the voyage al Colon.
 Upon it's arrival at San Diego, the first stop on the Pacific coast, the fleet will be joined by many other craft assigned to Admiral Rodman's com mand and the combined armada vii enter San Francisco harbor. Secretary Daniels will meet the vessels at Sar Diego and accompany them on theil travels from port to port and finally will go to Honolulu with several of the craft.
 Plans for the extensive maneuvers and battle practice in which the fleet will engage after the conclusion of its welcome home" cruise along the coas1 are being worked out and later vii come battles" with the Atlantic fleet and joint fleet exercises in both tht Pacific and the Atlantic.

 Riot I s Re es ut
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, July 19.-Soldiers, sailors and marines on liberty in the city, said to have been aroused by re peated assaults on white women by colo-ed men during the last few days, invaded a colored residential district tonight and one colored man was se- verely beaten.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-The most serious of the recently growing at tacks on Americans in Mexico came. to light today.
 A boat load of American sailors from the United States steamer Chey- enne were held up in the Temesi river, July 6. within nine miles of Tampico. and the sailors robbed The American flag was flying from the boat.
 Closely resembling the attacks
 on American sailors which led to
 the occupation of Vera Cruz in
 1914, the state department did not
 hesitate to regard it as grave af-
 fair and dispatched urgent rep
 resentations to the Carrauza gov
 ernment and Tampico authorities.
 Although ,the sailors were fishing. they were on official duty, bringing in food for their ship, and the American flag flying from the boat denoted 1t was on official business.
 A preliminary report of the attack reaching the navy department July did not go to the state department until today. No explanation was made for the delay Secretary Daniels asked for a more complete report.
 Federal Forces Control
 The interest is regarded as most serious and charged with possibilities. because the Carranza forces are in full contro lof the Tampico district and because il comes as climax of a long series of recent attacks on Americans, all of which have been made the sub nf 7er1x tations to the CarranZa government.
 Since President Wilson returned from the peace conference, he has turned his attention a great deal to the Mexican situation. Various reports have been circulating that the Ameri- can governments policy had under gone a change but there has been no official indication or announcement.
 It is known that the American troops along the border have a new set or or ders which is evidenced by the prompt manner in which they crossed into Juarez and cleaned up the fighting there when it menaced Fl Paso. The extent to which the military establish ment has been prepared to meet a situation in Mexico has not been fully disclosed, but there are evidences that
 
 be prepared for any eventuality into which it may be forced.
 Similar to Former Trouble ! It was an incident at Tampico in | 1914 which brought on the occupation of Vera Cruz. A boat from one of Ad- miral Mayo's ships was detained, a paymaster WIS arrested and jailed and at other times messengers from the ships were menaced ashore. Gen eral Huerta refused to apologize and salute the American flag and the oc- cupation of Vera Cruz followed. Officials see in the incident of July 1 s the makings of a more serious situ- ation.
