Summary or Frightful War That Is Raging In Spain

tered few alone died-probably less than were killed on the loyalist side by flying rocks from the explosions and an attempt to storm the build ing.
 All the explosions had done, 1t seemed at the moment, was to tr1- crease the bitter hatred on both sides and insure that if the rebels took Toledo or any place around 1t, a slaughter would follow.
 People of Madrid feared 8 terrible rebel air raid in retaliation for the dynamiting of the Alcazar and the city was blacked out last night py government order.
 There was an ornincus reminder today of the suffering that is likely to occur in the civil war, whose dur ation and ultimate result remained in as complete doubt as on its first day.
 A severe cold wave, accompanied by rain, hit the Guardarranla Noun taius semi -circling Madrid, and the government broadcast an appeal TOT sweaters, overcoats and raincoats in preparation for winter cam uaign which, in mountainous areas, must entail great suffering.
 Rebel and loyalist hroadcasters continued their claims of successel on various frontS But even these were less positive for the time heine and news was awaited of the next biz move = expected to be renewal of the rebel drive on Toledo and Madrid from the Talavera area,

TO
 HAVE NAMES ON

Wethersfield, Conn.,, Sept. 19 - Names of republican candidates for town offices will appear on the voting machines October 5 unless democrats institute court proceed ;ngs to have them stricken because of an alleged illegal caucus, it was reported today.
 Democrats charged the g. o. p. caucus Tuesday night was one day late because a state statute requires a caucus to be held not less than three weeks prior to election day. They appealed to Deputy Secretary of State J. Walter Darly to ban the g. o. D. slate from the ballot.
 Darly late yesterday said he had nothing to do with the situation, since voting at Wethersfield is by machine. If voting were by paper ballot, he said, the secretary of state would have jurisdiction. He re- ferred the matter to Town Clerk Arthur c. Willard, republican.
 Willard said he intends to have the republican slate appear on the ballot because there was nothing irregular about our caucus"
 He based his decision on a statute which states that list of party candidates must be in the town clerks hands mot less than live days prior to the election"

My MICHAEL M'EWEN 1886, by United Press)


 Gibraltar, Sept. 19-(UP)-Loyal- ist artillery hammered away at the Alcazar of Toledo today, opening the tenth week of the civil war. On a dozen fronts rebels and loyalists fought on, in skirmish, siege and pitched battle while in the suburbs of many cities, firing squads ended the lives of men regarded by either side as enemies. Tn the Talavera- Santa Olalla area southwest of Madrid and west of Toledo reports indicated lull in the most impor- tant battle of the war. Lolayist communiques claimed a gain of g couple of miles yesterday and fore cast that 1t marked the definite stopping of the rebel drive on To- ledo and Madrid.
 Toledo was a frightful fantasia of 6 ruined fortress, of streets filtered with debris and broken bodies, of semi-hysterical militiamen and gig- gling, hysterical girls. Nobody knew what had happened under the ruins of the Alcazar, where the loyaiists exploded mines yesterday to blow up the buildings deep cellars ana release the besieging army for the vitally important TalRyera front. But where yesterday loyalist officers asserted that more than half the l.20O to 2,OOO men, women and chil- dren in the cellars were dead. today they said they believed that . scat-

HARBOR PATROL
 RESCUED THREE
Three Men in Schooner, Foundering Off New
 Haven Shore, Saved

New Haven, Conn, Sept. 19-(U. P)-Police harbor patrol early to- day rescued three men from their small schooner which foundered a half mile of shore during the height of last nights gale. They were Nicholas Freedman and his brother, Robert, both of Newton, Mass, and Joseph Chapman, Rye, N. Y. Their boat had ben anchored of the New Haven Yacht Club at Morris Cove when the storm bore down upon them. Their plight was noticed by Miss Alice Eagan, a shore resident, who called police. The harbor patrol had little difncul- ty in reaching the stranded schoon- CT and removing the men who lodged in the city the remainder of the night and planned to go aboard during the day and mak erepairs.
 No Other Rescues
 Small boats along the eastern and western shore lines were beached by the heavy seas and high winds. There were no other reports of res- cuee. At the coast guard base at New London 1t was said no calls for assistance had been received and most of the patrol boats were kept at their docks because they were too small to buffet the waves.

Spanish Rebels Still Fighting At Alcazar
Loyalists Threaten to Seal Them in Living Tomb; Rebel Leaders Will Blow Madrid to Pieces
 in Reprisal for Acazar Ruins
BY IRVING PFLAUM 1o2R hx. Ifnifed PRI

N - z-Ts .
 Toledo, Sept. 19-(UP)-Loyalists stormed the ruins of the Alcazar today and fought in the tangled de- bris to reach it's bed rock cellars in which the men, women and chil- dren of the garrison are besieged. Two hours later the fight continued and the issue remained in doubt. It was the second attack in 24 hours. The first followed the attempt to blow up the Alcazar cellars yester- day. It failed. The fight for the Alcazar had become one of the most portentious issues of the civil war. The Citadel must be captured, 1t must be dynamited or the garrison must be sealed in a living tomb by continued artillery bombardment.
 Blast Madrid In Reprisal
 If the people in the .Alcazar are all killed, the ruins of Madrid itself may be their monument, it was dis closed, for the Rebels are expected to lombard the city mercilessly in reprisal. The capital Is in poig- nant fear of terrific Rebel air raid in reprisal for the dynamiting of the Alcazar yesterdays dyna- hitting that, failed. 1t is clearly ap- parent, now, and must be repeated. Believing that the raid might come during the night that has just pas- sed, authorities ordered complete blackout of lights at Ii o'clock last night. At 1 8. m. the thousands who waited sleepless for the sound of planes heard the unmistakeable drone of a Rebel bombing plane. No

AECD MAN FOUND. DEAD FROM GAS.
John H. Barlow, S1, of Wateryille Was Victim;
 Wife in Serious Way

John H. Barlow, 81, of 5 Patter- son court, was found dead at 9:30 o'clock this morning and his wife, Mrs. Belle Barlow, 78, overcome by Illuminating gas which appar- ently escaped from an accidentally opened jet in the kitchen of their home. Firemen were working des- perately with pulmotor and artifi- call respiration at press hour in an attempt to revive Mrs. Barlow in whom a spark of life was apparent.
 Await Medical Examiner
 Dr. Edward H. Kirschbaum, me- dical examiner, had not yet arrived at the Barlow home at press time, but police and fire department au- thorities had begun an investiga- ton.
 It was believed the gas jet had been accidentally turned on some time during the night or early this morning when Mrs. Barlow arose and went into the kitchen, brush- ing against the jet as she passed.
 MT. Barlowe was said to have suffered with heart disease, prob ably contributing factor in his death. The aged couple was found by a son-in-law, Ralph Benson, of 38 Manville street, who went to their home this morning after his wife had been there previously and had been unable to get in.
 Mrs. Benson came home and told her husband, who went to the Barlowe home and tried the door. Unable to open 1t, he pried open a

 PATH OF STORM Electric Service Was Dis- rupted, Trees Down,
 Property Damaged

Electric service was disrupted, trees were torn down and much pri- vate property was damaged by the terrific wind and rain storm which visited Waterbury yesterday. The wind, the strongest experienced in this city in years, tore through the city at gale speed while the rain poured down in torrents. Nearly two and half inches of rain fell throughout yesterday and last night. i
 Connecticut Light and Power company crews were kept busy throughout the night and were still engaged today restoring lines that were torn down by falling trees and limbs of trees. The fire depart ment was called out twice when fal- ling limbs caused short circuits in the alarm system. Many streets suffered minor washouts.

 New York, Sept. 19-(UP)-The biggest hurricane that ever struck the Atlantic coast blew past New York toward eastern Massachusetts today with Il deaths and property damage of several million dollars already its toll. Coast guardsmen and seamen risking their lives and vessels in a wild sea to save others, searched vainly for several freight CTS, barges and yachts lost in the turmoil and feared the death count was incomplete.
 Greatest Ever Happened
 The center of the giant storm, described by the weather bureau as greater in extent than any other hurricane ever mapped, passed a few miles at sea of New York during the night and was expected to pass east of Nantucket, Mass, at g a. m. (EDT). A weather bureau bulletin at a. m. said the center of the storm then was approximately 15O miles south of Block Island, at the ocean end of Long Island Sound, and was moving east-northeast.
 Wind velocities near the vortex remained at nearly 90 miles an hour but the fringes of the storm lost force gradually and weather fore- casters predicted that by tonight the worst gales would be swung eastward away from the rest of the New England coast.
 Shipping Took Heed
 Shipping was warned and took heed, by the disaster that befell mariners farther south who took chances yesterday and the sea lanes in the path of the storm were vir- tually empty.
 Most of the hurricanes toll of life was taken at sea. Roaring up the coastline from North Carolina,
