Whether the attack was perpetrated

Head said he was assaulted as he

As he passed from a hallway to the
living room, what appeared to be two
men attacked him suddenly.
Nothing was taken from his pockets
and no valuables were missing from
the house, investigators said. Head

Ev the Associated Press.
A possibility that the generally un-
certain European situation might i'm
pei the United States to re-establish
a naval squadron in European waters
was indicated today by Secretary Hull.
The Secretary projected that, as two
American men of war raced against
might evacuate nationals If that were
necessary.
The Secretary's suggestion was in
response to questions of newSmen
concerning the dispatching of two
vessels to the strife-torn European
country.
He said consideration of the ques-
ton had not progressed to any definite
point, but this Government was not
unmindful of the problem created for
it by the absence of vessels on
permanent station in European waters.
Conferred With STANDBY.
He was asked specifically If in his
conversation yesterday the question If
re-establishment of an American
squadron in European waters had been
taken up with Admiral william H.
STANDBY, Acting Secretary of the
Navy. Standley ordered the two YES
sells to Spain.
There have been no United States
vessels on permanent station in Eu-
ropean waters since 1929, when the
last two cruisers-the Raleigh and tie
Detroit-comprising the American
European squadron. were withdrawn
Until 1929 it had been the Nays
custom to keep two or three vessels
cruising in European waters.
The Secretary explained that his
action in requesting dispatch of the
war vessels to Spain was impelled by
what he described as the increasing
seriousness of the revolutionary situa-
ton in that country.
He emphasized the vessels were sent
to Spain purely as a precautionary
measure. -
President Roosevelt, he added. was
fully Informed Of the measures taken.
Americans Are Safe.
HullS talk with newsmen followed
shortly after the embassy at Madrid
flashed word of an important battle
near Toledo between armed militia and
rebel troops.
Eric c. Wendelin, third secretary of
the embassy, reported to the State De-
partment that all Americans in Madrid
were safe, including employees Of the
telephone company.
He said the situation in Madrid at
noon today, Spanish time, was quiet,
but tense, and that the battle near
Toledo still was raging.

MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich, July
22.-The Coast Guard cutter Rush
succeeded in freeing the racing yacht
Ben Bow from South Graham Shoals
early today after the crew of seven
men took severe battering from
heavy seas for eight hours during a
squall.
The yacht, owned by Joseph But
Ter of Chicago and skippered in the
annual Chicago-Mackinac race by
Peter Danly, ran aground at mid
night, heeling over at a 45-degree
angle under 40-mile wind and rain
storm.
The cutters Rush, AB-l7 and Es-
canada were kept busy pulling rae
ing craft and cruisers OF the beach
as the storm struck the harbor.
Three cruisers and at least three
racing craft piled up on the sandy
beach when they slipped their moor
ings in the heavy wind, but they were
undamaged.
