NEW YORK, September 18.—Ruins of the ancient Roman city of Leptis Magna, which are being excavated from their centuries-old grave in the sands of the Lygian desert. in north- ern Africa, promise to rival those of Pompeii in historical and artistic significance, in the opinion of Dr. Bruno Roselli, professor of Italian at Va%sar College, who has just return- ed from Tripoli. 4 Statuary of the highest Roman type, together with palaces, baths, basilica and the ruins of a Roman harbor, already have been unearthed. The operations, which are being con- ducted by 200 Arab prisoners of war under the direction of Prof. Renato Bartoccini of the Italian department of fine arts, will be completed In two years. Archeologists have proved Historic Chilean Cathedral Burns. BUENOS AIR September 18.— Magna, Now Being Unearthed Rivaled by Those that the city once had a population of 200,000 and that it covered nearly two square miles. Leptis Magna is being resurrected from beneath four to 15 yards of sands. Many of the building walls have caved in under the weight of the sand. Although much of the statuary is broken, Dr. Roselli believes most of the fragments will be found. The decline of the buried city be- gan in 476 A.D. When the Arabs swept over the site in 800 A.D., the process of deterioration was com- plete. Because “Christian dogs” once had lived there and had contaminated the place, the Arabs did not seriously ! molest the ruins. A French archeologist discovered the burled city 70 years ago, but ex- cavation was not possible until Italy took over the country in 1911 and 1912. Then the World War came and | turther postponed excavation. ZR-3 Flignt Authorized. COLOGNE, Germany, September 18. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1924 Ti{E EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON,.D. C., : %————_fi_ PERSHING OFFICE GOES FROM SERVICE WITH HIM “Headquarters, General of the Armies,” Passes With Retiring Commander of Troops. One of the effects of the statutory retirement of Gen. John J. Pershing has been the abolition of “headquar- ters, general of the armies,” an office created for his especial benefit, and the reassignment of the officers at- tached thereto. Maj. John G. Quekemeyer, Cavalry, aide to the general, has been assigned to duty as an instructor at the Gen- eral Staff School at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. First Lieut. John T. Schneider, Field Artillery, also on the staff of Gen. Pershing, has been ordered to take a special course of training at Harvard University. Maj. Xenophon H. Price, Corps of Engineers, and First Lieut. George E. Adamson, Quartermaster Corps, who have been attached to “headquarters” as mem- bers of the Battle Monument Com- mission. will remain on duty in the same offices at the War Department to assist Gen. Pershing, president of of the commission’s report to Con- gress. 1t developed yesterday that -Gen. Pershing’s last officlal act on the ac- tive list as chief of staff, was to sign the order for his own transfer to the retired list and “to proceed to his home.” Asks $20,000 for Injuries. Jacob S. Gurevich today filed suit in the District Supreme Court to re- cover $20,000 damages from the Capital Traction Co. for alleged per- sonal injurles. Through Attorney R. H. Yeatman and A. J. Schwartz the plantiff says he was crossing Con- necticut avenue at Rodman street June 13 last, in his automobile, when a car of the company collided with his machine and inflicted serious and permanent injury upon him.
