PACIFIC FLEET
 HEAVILY SHAKEN
 BYEARTHQUAKEs
All Six Dreadnaughts of the Armada Tossed by Severe Shocks, but Escape Dam age-Earth Tremors Not Recorded by Federal In- struments

ON BOARD U. S. s. NEW MEXICO, Saturday, Aug. 2.-(Bv Wireless to The Associated Press. )-Six dreadnaughts of the Pacific fleet were shaken se- verely by double earthquake shock at 4:1S o'clock this afternoon, 20 miles off the coast of the state of Colima, Mex ico. None of the warships reported any damage.
 The New Mexico trembled from bow to stern as if she had struck an un- charted reef The navigating officer sounded collision quarters" on the flagship's siren. Sailors on the fore top said the basket masts of the war ship swayed like poplar trees in a gale.
 Officers on the quarterback hurried to their posts and the crew and ma- rines took their places. Meanwhile all watertight compartments on the New Mexico were closed and inspection par ties were sent into the holds to see if there had been any damage to the hull. Admiral Hugh Rodman, commanding the fleet, quickly recognized the cause of the disturbance. He ordered signal all ships in the fleet and see if they felt any excessive vibration"
 Wireless telephone messages were received soon from the five other dreadnaughts, reporting they felt the shocks
 When the first tremor of the ship was felt those below hurried on deck The faces of some of the recruits showed alarm while the flagship rolled and pitched in the heavy swells that followed the shocks
 Admiral Rodman kept the crew at quarters for 15 minutes and then or dered the secure" signal to be sounded

 MARCH STOPPED
Republican 4. p. Leased wireJ

PARIS, Aug. 5.-The supreme inter- allied council sent a message yesterday to the Rumania government. request ing that the Rumanian army along the Theiss river, to cease it's advance upon Budapest immediately. The council eagerly awaited further communica- ton from the new Hungarian govern ment at Budapest today.
 The note, which the supreme council communicated to the new Hungarian government through the Italian mis- sion in Budapest, was temperate in tone, showing disposition on the part of the peace conference to assist the Hungarian people in a effort to create a stable government and need not, in any sense be considered a threat of violence against the new government. It laid stress, however, on the neces- sitv for Hungary to comply with the terms of the armistice and disarm con- pletely.
 ! Rumania and Czecho- Slovakia, in addition to the other Balkan states 1 have urged complete disarmament of the Hungarians immediately, and the peace conference apparently is dis posed to take every possible step to prevent further military action on the i part of the Hungarians.
 | In conference circles confidence is
 expressed that the Rumanians will not
 take the Hungarian capital against the
 will of the supreme council.

SWOLLEN STREAM DOES BIG DAMAGE
 AT GALLUP, N. M.

GALLUP, N. NJ. Aug. 3.-Scores of families in Gallup were driven from their homes, a part of busi- ness building was swept out, and two bridges were carried away in flood here last night.
 A cloudburst on the north slope of the Zuni mountains sent a wave of water down the Rio Puerco, which overflowed at Gallup.
 Homes in the western part of Gallup were badly damaged. Many families had no warning of the flood until water foot deep had entered their homes. Others were warned by blowing of the fire whistle, and sought higher ground. There was no loss of life.
 A part of the Schauer building. carried away in the flood. lodged against the Second street bridge. This bridge and the suspension bridge were carried away.
 Hundreds of yards of track on the santa Fe line were washed out. The damage will not he re- paired for a week, railroad of ficials estimated. Santa Fe trains are being detoured via the South ern Pacific.
 A second flood this morning added to the heavy property loss. Indications are that storms in the Zuni mountains are not yet over.

REFUGEES DISCLOSE UNRECORDED MEXICAN
 CRUE[T|ES IN 1917

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3-A story of cruelty to Americans in Mexico, involv ing death from starvation of an aged American woman, reached Washing ton today through unofficial channels. The cruelties, including an attack by bandits, some of whom are alleged to have been Carranzistas, imprisonment indignities and later confiscation of property, were perpetrated, it is said upon Dr. and Mrs. Charles T. Sturgis of Washington. and the latter's mother, Mrs. w. H. Keenright, also of Wash slngton. Mrs. Keenright died of star vation while held a prisoner by the bandits.
 pr. Sturgis. an American dentist and owner of a coffee plantation in Mexico, according to information received here, went to Mexico 20 years ago. His wife and her mother joined him later. In 1918, it is said, their plantation was raided by CarranZistas. and later In the same year by bandits headed by Gen. Rafael Cally Mayor. General Mayors took the three Americans pris- oners, it said said, and holding Dr. ] Sturgis and Mrs. Keenright as host 1 ages, sent Mrs. Sturgis to Mexico City with messages to a Zapatista agent. While being held prisoner, Mrs. Sturgis | said. her mother died from starvation i Not until last February, according to l the story reaching Washington, were Dr. Sturgis and his wife released. They returned to their plantation, although the dentist was partially paralyzed owing to the privations. Later the American consul at Salina Cruz sup piled them with funds to return to the United States. They arrived several days ago at New Orleans and now are en route to St. Louis.
 The Society fer the Protection oi American Rights in Mexico, after in
 vestigating the story, announced to- night that the matter would be called to the attention of the state depart ment. It was said Dr. Sturgis and his
 wife would be invited to appear before the house committee Investigating Mexican relations.

GOMPERS SAYS LABOR
 NEEDS MORE RIGHTS
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

AMSTERDAM, Friday, August L. CBy the Associated Press)-Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor and head of the American council to the International Trades Union Federation in session, pleaded for greater rights for labor today. His address followed the re- port of a committee which said it could not accept the charter given labor in the peace treaty as a full expression of the workers demands.
 Mir Gompers demanded that labor should not be regarded as an article of commerce. He urged also that a seamen's act be enacted to permit sail ors to leave ships when they were safely in harbor He pleaded for the equality of women and men and abo- lition of involuntary services.
 German delegates disputed MT. Gompers argument, which, they said, made it appear European labor unions were too conservative. They demand ed that the workers strive for req ization of the Berne conferences pro- gram. including the regulation of chill dren's education, women's labor, shorter hours, Sunday rest and the supervision of home industries.

Santa Fe Trains Passing Through Put Phoenix on Main Line at Last-Hun- dreds Eat Here

Limited trains for the east, both mall trains and through express.-all sorts of Santa Fe main line trains passed through Phoenix yesterday in a con- stant stream, 10 through passengers and a 20-car express of iced California grapes, all within the short space or A hours. And still they come, and may continue for some days, though one report has it that the washed out approaches to the Rio Puerco bridges may be fixed up to be passaole py some time Monday.
 The wards of the S. F. P. & P. and the Arizona Eastern were the busiest tbev have been in years Re-icing the cars. supplying water and fuel to the engines. all had to be done as expe- ditiously as possible, while the hat- famished passengers from number oi the trains descended upon PhoenlS cafes in clouds and almost ate them out. Small wonder at that. some oi them had had nothing to eat for more than "A hours and didn't know wher the next meal might show up in the dim distance.
 A number of peculiar and interestlhs situations developed in connection wltf the NdIlOuS U diiio. iC AAAS NA~NAt' arrive was a No 4, the California Linn tied which left Los Angeles at Il a. m Friday. It got in here about 4:10 a m. Sunday. At 6:10 it was followet by the No. Limited that left Lo. i Angeles Thursday full A hours ear Her. This seeming paradox is ex plained by the fact that the Thursda, train got clear across the state O Arizona to the scene of the washou near Houck station just a little afte | the washout occurred. The train tha ! left the following day was stopped a Ashfork and started this way while it i predecessor was still back tracking i clear across the state to come down tn 1 S. F. P & P line.
