FIRST AMERICAN SOLDIER WAS
KILLED IN FRANCE 10 YRS. AGO

PARIS, Nov. s tP-Ten years
,ago today the first American
soldiers killed in action in France
fell under enemy fire.
Three men of the 10th infantry
met death that night, When a
raiding party of Germans was
sent over into the front line
trenches at Artois in Lorraine,
about ten miles east of Lune-
vile, two weeks from the day
the first American trops entered
the line for the first time.
The sector had been quiet since
the beginning of the war, and
was used by the French chiefly
as rest sector. One battalion
from each infantry regiment of
the 1st division was sent into
the line to get its baDtism of
fire on October 20, 1917. The
second battalion of each of these
regiments went into the line on
the night of November 3. As
they were making their relief,
always a tickIish time, German
bombardment began. Under cover
of a heavy barrage, a German
raiding party, seeking prisoners,
entered the sector occupied by
company f of the 10th infantry.
Corporal James Gresham and
privates Merle d. Hay and
Thomas Enright of this company
were killed during the raid.

WITNESS TALKS
Connections Between Oil
Man and Day Furnished
By Chauffeur.

WASHINGTON Nov 3 lP - The
government set about today to bridge
the gaps in the trail of evidence touch
ing the activities of Burns detectives
in shadowing jurors in the Fall-Sin
clair oil conspiracy trial. as the grand
jury investigation went forward.
Seeking evidence to directly connect
Harry F. Sinclair and A. Mason Day,
to whom it is charged the Burns op-
eratives reported, district attorneys
obtained the statement of one witness
that he was employed by Day to drive
the wealthy oil operator about Wash.
ington during the trial, and that Day
paid him 1871 in cash only last night
for his services
Another surprise element to the
whole proceeding was furnished when
Mark B. Thompson, Of New Mexico,
one of Albert B. Falls attorneys, was
sent before the grand jury after a
conference. with District Attorney Cor
don. He was questioned about a tele-
phone conversation he had with Dan
r. Jackson, OF Ell PaSO, Texas, a spe-
cial assistant to Attorney General
Sargent.
JackSOu SdlQ UtlAS COI1VclodG1OA4 was
entirely personal, adding that it had
nothing to do with the oil case. Thon1p-
son declined to discuss it, explaining
that he could not divulge what he
had told in the grand jury room.
This angle of the investigation was
cpened up when agents of the district
attorney found several reports of the
movements of another assistant to the
attorney general in the papers seized
by federal agents in the raid on the
headquarters of the Burns men at the
Wardman Park hotel last Monday.
Inquiries were made to ascertain
why the detectives shoul dhaye been
trailing an assistant to the attorney
general and while they were in prog
ress it was disclosed that Thompson
and Jackson had been in conlmunica-
ton with each other.
Edward j. Kidwell the juror accused
of having talked too freely before JUS
tice Siddons ordered mistrial in the
oil case yesterday, was around the
court house much of the time during
the day He was accompanied by his
father, Edward j. Kidwell, Sr., bar

Ford airplane that was to have arrived
in Douglas yesterday afternoon, said
that the plane would leave Ell Paso at
8 o'clock this morning and would ar
rive here at approximately 1880
o'clock. Maddux said that delay in
starting from Ell Paso for Douglas yes
terday afternoon caused them to post
pone the flight because they feared
darkness would overtake them before
they could land here.
Thousands of persons were disap-
pointed when the plane did not arrive
yesterday, but the general feeling now
is one of joy that the plane will get
here in the middle of the day instead
Of at dusk, SO that everyone will have
a good chance to see it and to meet
the passengers.
Preparations for welcoming the phne

up, will start at Camp Harry j. Jones
at ii O'Clock this morning with a re-
view Of the troops for Governor Hunt

should arrive at 1880 at which time
the officials of the Douglas chapter of
the National Aeronautical association
will hold conference with j, L, Mad
dux and Will N. Fox, the general man
ager of Maddux, Inc.
In telephone conversation with
George E. Buxton late last night Man
ager Fox of the aeronautical corpora
tibn said that -the party would arrive
at decision whether or not to remain
in Douglas, for the banquet after they
get here today. 1t is understood that
certain members of the party are
overdue in Los Angeles and that it
may be considered necessary for the
big plane to continue on its voyage
some time this afternoon.
Mr. Fox said however, that regard
less of whether the plane stay he will
remain for the banquet and willsrep-
resent the Maddux and Ford interests
at the formal event. rs
The celebration of the coming of
the plane, which in the minds of
many persons here marks new era
in development, was started last eve
ming when more than SO persons at
tended an inpromptu dinner dance at
the Club Sociale where addresses were
delivered and plans were laid for the
greater brilliance of the affair this
evening.
