Lonergan stated ne would seek re-
election in Connecticut.
The state convention Of the DEM
ocratic party In September, 1888,
therefore, promises to be an excit-
ing one with Senator Maloney seek
ing to go further In his drive to be-
come the dictator Of party policies
in Connecticut.
Spellacy with L0nergan
Mayor Spellacy Is understood to
be Fundamentally behind the Lon
ergan candidacy. This points to a
further test of strength between
the Hartford mayor and National
Committeeman FitzGerald. Maloney
will lead the FITZGERALD campaign
for the u. 8. senatorial nomination.
Mayor Spellacy takes the stand that
Senator Lonergan's record In Wash
ington, D. c., justifies his renomina-
ton and reelection.
Not Speaking for Spellacy
Mayor Hayes said today that he
was not authorized to make any
statement as to Mayor Spellacy's at
titude In the present political tur-
MOL. He said that he would not say
that Mayor Spellacy did not walk
out" Of the meeting In the governors
chambers. The mayor declared en-
phatically, however, that he did not
walk out with Spellacy but left the
chambers with the governor imself.
Spellacy Wants Devlin
While Mayor Hayes Is favorable
to Senator Lawlor for president pro
tempore, Mayor Spellacy Is not. He
wants Senator Raymond j. Devlin
of New Haven to take the post Of
president pro tempore SO as to clear
the way for his legal associate, Sen
ator-elect Joseph Cooney, for the
post Of majority leader. The major
ity leader of the senate automatic
ally becomes chairman Of the pow
erful judiciary committee which

Madrid, Dec. 4-(UP)-Loyalists,
backed by terrific artillery support,
launched a counter ATTACK early to-
day-the 28th day of the seige of
Madrid-that drove attacking rebel
troops back to their trenches. The
insurgent reversal, following an all
day and night attack with every
thing they had, revealed that the
government troops had received new
artillery batteries and have strength
ened the city's defenses during the
recent 1ull. The day-long attack on
the Spanish capital, accompanied by
three air raids, which blew up loyal
list trenches and killed q number of
women and children non combat
ants behind the lines, reached It's
climax about midnight. A swelling
chorus of artillery, trench mortars,
machine guns and rifles attested the
intensity Of the rebel attack. But
they could not make the government
troops give ground. The attack
stopped suddenly Just before mid
night.
Govt. Troops In Action
This was the signal for the gov
eminent troops to go into action.
Hidden batteries-of about the same
size as the famous French 75's-be-
gan staccato barrage. The loyalists
apparently held these units in re-
serve. After a merciless bombarding
the barrage lifted and the govern
ment troops went over the top with
bayonets.
Worn out from the 18-hour fight,
the rebels faltered and fell back.
The loyalists made no attempt to
follow them into their trenches,
where they would have been at dis
advantage, their strategy apparently
being to hold them to the line on
which they have been stalemated
for a month. Loyalist artillery con-
tined "strafing" the retreating rebels
for more than two hours, wrecking
trenches and exploding ammunition
dumps.
Firing Diminished
BY 7 a. m. the firing on both sides
had diminished to desultory rifle
and machine gun fire in the north
west suburbs of the city, as both
sides punished parties sent out un-
der cover of darkness to repair
barbed wire defenses.
The most furious loyalist counter
attack was centered on the Clinico
hospital, which the rebels had seized
and fortified. More than 30 bat
teries Of artillery-90 field pieces
directed their fire on that sector for
two hours. It was impossible, from
this side of the line, to ascertain i'm
mediately the damage inflicted.
Loyalist aviation bombed the rebel
lines along the whole Isudchiza- San
Bernabe- Urbina front, while rebel
airplanes countered by raking the
government militia lines near Villa
Real with machine gun fire.

RUSSIA, JAPAN
BUYING PLANES

totaled approximately 100000, the
United Press was informed. These
purchases were said to be merely
the prelude to other orders already
placed for future delivery, or con-
corning which bonafide inquiries
have been made Of American manu-
facturers.
During the same period Japan
was reported to have purchased
approximately 100000 worth OF
American airplanes, and has placed
orders for, or made inquiries con-
corning, additional ships.
Virtually all Of the Russian order,
department Of commerce officials
said, was turned out by the Martin
factory near Baltimore. The ships
were of big transports similar to
those used in regular airway trans
port service in this country. While
they are listed as nine-military, mill
tary officials agree that they could
be converted easily into deadly
bombing planes as powerful as any
possessed by any European army.
Japan Distributes Purchases
Japanese purchases, 1t was under
stood, were distributed among sew
eral factories. Officials here be-
lieve the Japanese were purchas-
Ing these planes more with view
TO using them as models for manu-
facture of similar planes In Japan
than with O view to placing them
into immediate military service.
The Soviet and Japanese pur-
chases were said by department Of
commerce officials to be represen-
tative of the interest taken in
American aircraft by foreign gov
ernments, particularly those mem
aced by the war clouds now gather
ing over Europe. Inquiries and or
ders are pouring in upon American
manufacturers, 1t was stated.
Neutrality Law Faces Them
One of the obstacles IN the way
OF immediate placing OF many OF
these orders. officials said, is the
possibility that the American neu-
trality law may prevent shipment
Of the planes, II war should break
out In Europe between now and the
time the plyanes are ready for ship
ment. The law requires the presi-
dent TO proclaim an embargo on
shipment Of arms, ammunition and
implements Of war 10 any and all
nations engaged IN war, irnmedi-
ately war breaks out.
The neutrality law lists COM
mercial planes Is well az military
planes as coming within the scope
OF farms, ammunition and inple-
ments OF war;" which would be af-
fected by the export embargo. Even
In peace time export licenses must
be obtained on oil types Of planes,

HARDY Is G. U. CAPTAIN
Selected for 1o35-Vaccaro Voted
Honor for Past Season.

Lawrence (Red) Hardy, unanimous
choice as the Districts best college
center of the 1886 season, will captain
Georgetown's foot ball team in 1887.
He was elected by his teammates OF
the last season as meeting Of the
Hilltop squad.
At the same time AL Vaccaro, an
other all-star selection as tackle and
one Of the five seniors on the squad
during the last season, was named as
honorary captain Of the recent team.
Due to the fact that the five seniors
were unusually popular, no attempt
was made to name a regular leader
before the 1885 season started, Coach
Jack Hagerty appointing temporary
captains before each game. Vaccaro,
however, will go down as the Hoyas'
captain for 1886. being named on the
same ballot which elected Hardy the
leader for 1887.
