THRILLING EXPERIENCES OF
 CAPTAIN JAMES BLAKE

New York. Aug 22.-Captain James Blakie. former commander of the converted cruiser Caledonia. whose capture and threatened execution by the Germans in 1916 indicated for a time a repetition of the Captain Fry att incident. tailed from Londonderry today in command of the steamship Columbia, according to word received by agents of the Anchor Line here. The Columbia is reported to be the first vessel to leave a north of Ire land port with passengers since war was declared.
 The Caledonia, Captain Blakie's for mer command. was sunk by the Ger mans in the Mediterranean on Decem- Der 4s1sI6. after the British skipper had refused to surrender and had done his best to ram and sink his. enemx,sr He MaSA picked from the sur vfvors in the life boats and taken on board the submarine as a prisoner
 On the U-boat's arrival at it's home port Captain Blafie was placed on trial on the charge of attempting to ram the German craft and found guilty. Word that he was to share the fate of Captain Fsryatt aroused such a storm of indignation in that Eng land reprisals on captured Germans were generally demanded. Later it was announced from Berlin that case of Captain Blakie had been recon .sidered with the result that inasnuch al the Caledonia was an armed cruis- CT the captain was Justified" in his action of attempting to ram the Ger man craft and his sentence was modi- fled to that of a prisoner of war.

 Proposals to make the action apply to profiteering i house and room rents. adopted by the house in committee of the whole. were striken out in the final vote.

chos river toward Ojinaga, deployed his forces on the plain before that town and attacked from three sides. Endorsements for the federal gar rison at Ojinaga arrived along the same trail that the aviators followed in their attempt to find their way out.
 It was believed today that at least one of the bandits was in, the vicinity of the place where the Villa rebels in the Ojinaga district made their head quarters in the mountains.
 Ildefonse Sanchez. another Villa leader, was seen in the same district in which the Americans are operating several months azo. He has small bands scattered through the noun tains.
 American troops are taking every precaution to prevent an ambush that might prove another trap like that at Carriza1, at the time of the Pershing expedition. At night the troops sleep and stand guard in rotation. An ad- vance guard investigates every can yon house and mountain trail to pre- vent surprise attacks.
 Carranaz troops under General Pru- neda are at Cuehillo Parada and there is another federal command at San Jose, opposite Indio, Tex. They have made no effort to prevent operations by American troops.
 The line of communication is being closely guarded and airplaneS are watching every body of Mexicans in the zone of operations.
 General Dickman denied reports cur rent that eight more bandits had been killed below the border.

Maria, Tex. Aug. 22-After a day of limited operations the American punitive expedition faced the probabil- ity of a forced march tonight to reach a new base from which troops will scout tomorrow for the bandits who held two American army aviators for ransom.
 Reports from the Mexican consul at Presidio, Tex. stated that cooperation between Mexican troops and the Americans was continuing satisfac- torily and that there was no anxiety over possible friction.
 General Joseph T. Dickman. com mander of the southern department. reiterated that no more troops would be sent from here into Mexico at this time. He added. however, that efforts were being made to obtain more planes to maintain liaison with troops in Mexico and that he hoped to have the planes soon. More machines become necessary as. the distance from the border to the expedition increases. he explained.
 General Dickman set at rest reports that the troops would soon be with drawn by stating that the search would continue as long as it is possi- bie to follow the trails
 The airplane in Mexico broke it's rudder control yesterday and narrowly escaped serious accident
 The scene of operations at present and for the immediate future is the country over which Villa operated in November. 1917. when he attacked and captured Oiinaga and threatened Pre- sidio. Tex. Villa moved down the Con-

 Debate today consisted largely in attacks and defense of the administra- tion. republicans asserting that .the democrats with matserly inactivfty" had avoided any discussion or rtNed- ies for the high cost of living and democratic members charging thatsre- publicans had been busy playing ppli- tics and were unmindful of coming elections"
