R-4 EXPECTED COMPLETE TRIP
 THIS EVENING

LONDON. July 12.-R)-The huge dirigible R-34, continues to make good time on her return trip from Ameri- ca. At II o'clock this morning, Greenwich time, the balloon reported by wireless as being but $50 miles off the Irish coast. The message also stated that exceptional good headway was being made and the airship ex- pected to arrive some time this eve ming.
 So far the dirigible has had no diff ficulty on the return trip. One of the engines became disabled but this did not inconvenience the navigation of the large airship as five engines are carried and two or three of them are sufficient to propel the craft at a good rate of speed. Before leaving Mineola, precautions were taken against there being fuel shortage, which occasioned the trouble on the trip across to America.

TERRIBLE TURK RUNNING FROM
 GREEK TROOPS

SALONIKI, July 12-P)-Accord- ing to an announcement from the headquarters of the Grecian army operating in South Smyrna, the Turks are no less blOodthirsty now than they have been for centuries past The report from headquarters states the Greek troops are rapidly forcing the Turks to retreat from consider able territory they have been holding.
 In one place. just recaptured by the advancing Greek army, there was found the badly mutilated bodies of S4 Greek women and girls. It is evi- dent these people had been killed and mutilated without being able to make any kind of defense against their aggressors. Many tales of atroci- ties committed by the Turks are brot to the attention of the Greek com mand daily.
 The retreat of the Turks is so hur- ried that they are forced to abandon number of large guns. At one time it seemed that the Turkish soldiers would gain the upper hand in Smyrna but Greek endorsements were hur- ried to the scene and it now seems probable, says the Greek headquar- ters, that the Turks will be driven from South Smyrna altogether.

IS OPPOSED TO CONSOLIDATION
 OF RAILROADS

NEW YORK, July 12.-P)-Claim- ing that such an act would seriously impair the credit of financially strong road without materially i'm proving the credit of a weak one, Robert Lovett states in memoran- dun to congress that he is unalter- ably opposed to the consolidation of the country's railroads into a few large systems.
 This consolidation has been tenta- lively suggested as solution to the problem which now confronts the gov ernment relative to the disposition of the various roads under federal administration. It is not desired that the roads be maintained under the government control nor yet is 1t satis factory that they be returned to their pre-war status.
 In an effort to solve the problem it has been suggested that, out of the many systems, two or three large sys- tens be formed with view of safe guarding the small roads from fin ancial disaster.
 Robert LOvett, who is the president of the Union Pacific, states in his memorandum to congress that no benefit can be derived from such consolidation, the only result being injury to those roads which are now financially strong.

 COBLENZ, July 12.-P)-The American soldier is determined to be amused even if he has to furnish the amusement himself. An elaborate three ring circus is now being staged by the ingenious doughboy for the benefit of all American troops now occupying the Rhine provinces.
 The show is billed to "out-show Barnum and Bailey" and the soldiers guarantee their spectators circus which will be all that circus should be- The soldiers, however, have one cause for grief, Acrobats, clowns, bareback riders, real live Indians and cowboys they have galore but all the organizations are bewailing the fact that there is a great shortage of cir GUS animals. Aside from the ever present army mule and few com pany mascots, mainly dogs, the circus managers have positively no men, agerie but they are not letting the lack of an animal collection interfere with the staging of the circus.
 All the actors are soldiers who are in active service in the army of oc- cupation. It is estimated that ten thousand people will attend the grand opening and not small percentage of this number will be German civil ians. In fact, the Germans seem to enjoy the idea of a circus more than the doughboys for but few of the na- tives of these provinces ever wit. messed a real circus while there is hardly soldier who has not been to at least dozen.
