AMERICAN SOLDIER
Is SHOT AND KILLED
BY RUSSIAN OFFICER


Omsk, Tuesday. Sept. 80 tby the
Associated Press) An American sol
dier in Viadivostok was shot and
killed recently by a Russian officer
it has been learned here. This and
other incidents led to a demand from
the allied commanders at Nladivostok
for the removal of the Russian troops
from that city. A vigorous protest
by the Omsk government, however,
led to the withdrawal of the demand.
Admiral Kolchak's protest was ad-
dressed 10 the allied governments
voicing his objection to what he con-
sidered violation of Russian SOW
ereignty. 1t was dispatched after
General Rozanoff, the Russian mill
tary commander in the Far East had
reported to Omsk that the allied conf
manders had ordered him to take his
troops out of Vladivostok, but that
he had refused to comply with the
demand. The Omsk government up
held him and according to informa-
ton here, several of the superior mill
itary and diplomatic representatives
of the allies at Omsk cabled repre-
sentations to their governments sup
porting Admiral Kolchaks position.
The version of the killing of the
American contained in the reports
coming here said the American. while
engaged in anti-government propa-
ganda, was ordered by the Russian Of
ficer to desist. The American struck
the officer, who drew pistol and
shot his assailant. the account added.

Especial Gable Dispatch to the WorldD
London, oct. 10.--Animated by
Americanism, Mrs. Woodrow Wilson
suggested that many vessels built by
the American shipping board be
christened with Indian names. In
this way the memory of the original
Americans would be honored and the
nationality of the ships be established
as easily as by Old Glory floating
over them The suggestion was adopt
ed and Mrs Wilson chose the names.
Now they are causing some compli-
cations
An American negro who had been
a seaman aboard an American vessel
for six months could not give the
name of his ship at the United States
consulate today He hesitated stam-
mered, scratched his head and finally
said:
"To tell you the truth, boss, ! amt
never been able to spell her name
rs it Cauquomogomoc? laughed
one of the consul generals clerks,
who halls from Maine.
ut might be. Cap'n. I amt never
even spelled it," said the sailor, hesi-
tatingly,
Perhaps 1t is Chemquassabamti
cook, or Molechunkemunk. or Um-
saskis?" pursued the clerk, reeling
off the names of lakes that dot
Names fair face. "Or maybe 1t is
Meddybemps or Mattawamkeg?
That's right, Cap'n, that's right
exclaimed the sailor, Frightening.
."Ah know there's a keg in it, but All
can't spell it."
There are many good seamen
who can't spell or even pronounce
some of the Indian names given to
American ships" said a Yankee sea
captain who was at the consulate.
."All our seamen are not college
graduates by long shot IT would
be better to name a ship Mollie or
Annie than to christen her Gero-
nimo or Navajo"
The Indian names are just as
puzzling to Englishmen. The steam
ship Sioux came in here four days
ago, A London port official. who has
