the number of wounded Many were believed to have died through lack of medical attention as neither federals nor rebels are equipped with any field hospital service and the Red Cross officials on this side were not permitted to ford the river even under a Ked Cross flag Supplies of bandages and hospital equipment were needed It was expected i this want would be relieved by the ar i rival of more

combatants Should allofthe federals come across they would be disarmed but they might be permitted to remain on this side on grounds of humanity after they had been placed under temporary arrest The later disposition of the prisoners would be in the hands of higher army authorities The inclination of the deserters to carry their guns to this side with them was the cause of some uneasiness in view of the expected arriva i oi so maiu foreign soldiers at a point where the United States border patrol is not nu merous It was hoped that the federals If thev came would cross without any unexpected

the greater problem in the near future The president is quoted as having said recently in a conversation with an American that the resources of the country as yet had scarcely been touched that there was unlimited wealth in the republic which was available to the administration and that it was a great error to regard the country as in a condition even approximating financial stress He then likened the republic to a snake of which he was the head and added To kill the snakV it is necessary to crush the head To overthrow this republic the rebels must take the capital and kill me That they never

ynited States bureau of mines in an address before the mechanical science and engineering section of the American Society for the Advancement of Science here today The death rate among miners said Dr Holmes a national disgrace It Is twice to three times that of European mining countries when considered on the basis of the number of men employed For the past three or four years we have been making progress In behalf of greater safety and there has been a considerable reduction In the death rate We have not made the progress we should have made During 1913 we have taken a decided step backward Death Rate Higher Last Year The death rate in our coal mines during 1913 is probably 15 per cnt greater than that of 1912 Let us hope this going backward Is temporary If It continues the country will soon see legislation more drastic than we have vet believed possible The national government is unfortunately far behind the needs of the situation In Its Investigation In Behalf of mine safety The

reported they found more than 200 dead on th field i Fight Begins at Dawn Fighting which began at daybreak lulled at noon but was reopened three hours later by a gun squad that drew away from the main body of revolutionists and poured a hall of bullets into the federal stronghold Undaunted by the bursting of shells the gunner said to be a Frenchman named Brien trained his gun with deadly accuracy whenever a sufficient number of federal targets appeared At 4 oclock the rebels ceased their direct attack and began working closer to the federal position with the intention of resorting to dynamite bombs During the afternoon battle the lone rebel gunner drew the fire of four machine guns 30 shots coming from the federal side to 1 from the constitutionalists With Brien were about 100 constitutionalists according to two Americans who crossed the bridge and reached the revolutionist linee The squad had four machine guns but used only one at a time Bullets Fall on Side Many bullets

which in the words of Lord Hall fax president of the English Church Union threatens a schism which will rend the Church of England in two has arisen out of tho now celebrated Kikuyu conference held in the town of Kikuyu East Africa laFt June which sought to unite all Protestant denominations against the lncreasine power of the Roman Catholic propaganda in East Africa The trouble arose out of the endeavor of the bishop of Zanzibar to impeach for heresy two prelates the bishop of Uganda and tho bishop of Mombass who took the lead in tin Kikuyu conference celebrated the communion service in the Presbyterian Church at Kikuyu and administered the sacrament to the missionaries of the variolic sects composing the conference The controversy for and against the bishop Zanzibar is now going on through out the whole religious field The archbishop of York in his New Tear letter to his diocese says it Is obvious that this discussion will test the power of the Church of England to know its own mind and to take its own place in Christendom and that unless the issues are wisely handled they will set back the course of Christian unity If only by endangering the unity of the Anglican Church
