that offensive had been completed
Newspapers, however, explain the de-

that the Spanish army at Melilla while

an awkward position after the drive
is started

also refers to the danger of delaying
operations too long, as the rainy sea

Moors to utilize airplanes abandoned
during the Spanish retirement from
Nador, have been disastrous. Sew
eral woud-be aviators have been
killed and their machines destroyed.

this autumn, NJ Viyiani said he did
not know whether the discussion there
would involve land armaments but if
it was confined to the naval service
the result of the conference must be

Star, through "an error in judgment"
contracted to buy the shipping board
vessels at more than double their
present market value. It's resources
are so depleted by the falling off in
ocean commerce that it is unable to
meet payments due on the vessels and
further is likely to find itself in grave
difficulties unless it can get a clear
tit to some of the vessels to be used
as security for another bond issue
The board is urged to readjust the
contract price in accordance with the
present market value of the ships and
to give the Green Star a clear title to
four vessels which it estimates its
payments to date would purchase out
right at the readjusted valuation.
The ships involved are the Lancas

IDLE WORKINCMEN
BEGIN RIOTING IN
GREAT BRITAIN
Many Places Witness Violent Up
risings-Ugly Spirit In Evi-
dence At Bristol

London Sept. demonstrations
by the unemployed were held in many
places throughout England yesterday
and in several cities serious disorders
were narrowly averted An ugly spir-
it was evident at Bristol, where a
crowd attacked the building occupied
by the board Of guardians and clashed
with the police. The door to the
board of governors was broken and a
red flag captured by the police Even
tually the gates to the building were
opened and police force charged the
large crowd which was dispersed but
windows in hundreds OF shops were
smashed by the people.
Wild scenes also were witnessed in
Liverpool. After an encounter with
the police the employed presented to
the city council ten minute ultima
tum threatening that at the eXpira-
tion of that time they would not be
responsible for the consequences. The
lord mayor subsequently appeared and
assured the leaders in the demonstra-
tion that plan would be formulated
for the purpose of finding work.
One of the most notable demonstra-
tionS occurred in Wales, where 1000
persons marched across the noun
tains from Abertillery to Tredegar
a distance of twelve miles. A similar
manifestation in Sunderland culmin-
ated in attempt to force the gates
of the workhouse. Failing in this
members of the crowd entered the
guardians building and it was neces-
sary for the police to eject them.
