TALK OF ALLIANCE BETWEEN
 MINERS AND RAILROAD MEN

Cleveland, O., Sept. 14.-Joint action in wage demands is one of the pur- poses of the proposed alliance be- tween railroad brotherhoods and the united coal miners, officials of the United Mine Workers in convention here said today. The proposed team work is to extend throughout the whole breadth of economic relations, according to their plan.
 When the committee of miners of hcials to be appointed this week meet with a committee from the rail in Cleveland, they will be instructed to work out plan of cooperation on everything that both groups want.
 At the same time the organiza tions in the two industries would retain complete autonomy of action and would rely upon help of the other party to the compact only when it's help were greatly needed.
 The fact the railroads cannot run without coal and the coal miners can not work without coal cars makes the proposed dual alliance. most logical leaders say.
 The miners wage demands to be presented to operators of the central competitive field September 25 will set November l as the date for term = inatiOn of the present contract. The action of the coal miners in com hitting themselves completely to the dual alliance and to a programme of na at1OnaIzatiOn was the most import ant event of the first five days of the convention, officials say.

GENERAL PERSHiNG IS
 SWAMPED BY INVITATIONS

Washington. Sept. 14.-Although swamped by personal telegraphic and mail invitations which it would take months to fill if all were accepted, General Pershing thus far has not been able to arrange his plans beyond the eliminating ceremonies here this week of his homecoming. Members of his staff said today no attempt had vet been made to formulate his itinerary or the date of his departure to visit his boyhood home at Leclede. Mo.
 The expeditionary commander spent a restful Sunday. He remain ed in his room at the hotel most of the morning. going over purely per sonal correspondence. Later he at tended services at the Episcopal Church of the Ephphany. Even then he was not to escape entirely the crowds of admirers for the four star red red flag on the big army automo bile he used. had told people who passed the church who was inside and when the general came out, the street was blocked with spectators and he had much handshaking to do before he could escape.
 A number of visitors called on Gen. Pershing later in the day.
 Washing on tonight was assuming a more martial air than it has had at any time since the war began. With D. 900 men or more of the First DI- vision assembling for the national victory parade Wednesday, the camps and barracks about the city were overf1oWing with soldiers and. the streets full of First Division men day and night.

 TROOPS PROTECT DOMBROWA

Berlin. Saturday. Sept. 13 (By the A.

 The despatch adds that a proposition also has been made by the American delegate that the troops of occupa ton shall not serve the purpose of carrying out the plebiscite. but shall be desig- mated merely IS "expeditionary corps" and equipped with comprehensive ere dentials.

Dallas, Tex, Sept 14-Drivins furi- ously into the Texas coast, principally in the section southwest Of Galveston, the tropical hurricane that has skirted the Un4ted States gulf coast for nearly a week apparently has swept inland near the Mexican border.
 Wire communication was interrupted in most of the affected area and the extent of the storms damage could not De learned accurately tonight. There were no reports of fatalities
 Brownsville and Corpus Christi ap- parently felt the brunt of the storb, which weather bureau officials believe has passed on into Mexico, where it will be dissiDated in the Mexican mountains.

 Water was reported to a depth of six feet in sections of Corpus Christi. In- formation received by the weather bu- reau at San Antonio said the water was three feet deep in the lobby of a Corpus Christi hotel.
 Earlier reports today from Corpus Christi told of considerable damage done by a sixty five mile gale which drove residents of outlying districts to the greater security of brick and stone buildings downtown.
 Isolation of Brownsville was com plete. tonight so far as wire communi- cation was concerned, the only infor- nation coming from that city being contained in a brief wireless despa tch from Fort Brown to southern depart ment headquarters of the army at San Antonio reporting a seventy five mile wind at 1 p. m.
 The storm struck Galveston early today and caused the tidewater to flood the business section and the north side of the island to depth of three feet. The sea wall withstood the onslaught of the oundinc waves. how ever and there was no damage to the ca''~"r-ar- connecting the city with the mainland.
 To1Ieht most of the water had re- cef'ed from .Cialvestons streets all though an area of several blocks still ran with water to the curb top. Mer- charts de-'1ar red their loss was not great. Galveston marine circles had no reports of shipping loss.
