{W BRITAIN HERALDM™ é PRicE THREE CENTS. NEW BRITAIN, -CONNECTICUT, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1913—TWELVE PAGES. — ESTAE 3 ENlilANl] RECEIVES > 5 ANUTHER AIR VISIT Zéppelins Do Little Damage— French Repulse Germans ARTILLERY ACTIVE IN WEST "y Infantry Assaults on Lorraine Front Break Down Before Wire Entangle- ments—Little Activity in Darda- nelles—Changes in War Plan. England again has been visited by * German Zeppelins, the latest raid, over the east coast, occurring last night. Like the one of Saturday night reported yesterday, however, the raid was harmless to both life and property, according to the British official account, the only damage be- ing breaking of glass and of telegraph wires. A German attack north of the Souchez station was easily repulsed, today’s French war department state- ment says. Infantry assaults on the Lorraine front broke down before the wire entanglments under the fire of the French infantry. Artillery activ- ity, some of it of a violent nature, was in evidence in many sectors. Austro-Hungarian sentiment re- garding the request of the United States for the recall of Ambassador Dumba is divided, according to indica- tions supplied by articles in the Vienna newspapers. One section apparently is convinced that the ambassador act- ed without orders from his govern- ment, whilé the other upholds his course as in line with his duty. The British parliament, at its re- assembling tomorrow, will‘take up the problem of increasing the national in- come. It is expected, as a principal measure, that the scope of the income tax will be considerably broadened. Pierre Bark, the Russian minister of finance, is on his way from Petrograd for conferences with the French min- ! ister of finance and the British chan- cellor of the exchequer. New measures, the exact nature of which is not indicated, are to be em- ployed by the entente allies in the future conduct of the war, accord- ing to reports in Rome, where it is said, the next meeting of the 'Ftalian £ cabinet will deal ‘with the subject. { ' Their seems to have been little re- cent activity in the Dardanelles, the : Turkish official statement mention- ~ ing only artillery action. Reports from various quarters des- - cribe conditions in Constantinople as chaotic, with much suffering among the population while other reports, coming through Athens, declare thal the position of the Turkish forces on | the Gallipoli Peninsula is precarious. Bulgarian reservists in Italy have been called to the colors, advises from Rome state: Russians Lose Seaplane. Berlin, Sept. 13, by wireless to Say- ville, N. Y.,—The Russians lost one of their seaplanes in the attack by these craft on i small German crui- ser off Windau, officially reported terday. A statement issued today telis | of the attack by several Russian Hydroplanes on the cruiser, and of their dropping eight bombs, all of which missed the mark, and adds: ‘“One hydroplane was shot down anl brought to Windau. Its oceu- pants, two Russian officers were made prisoners-” Turks Destroy Caissons. Constantinople, Sept. 12, via Am- ” sterdam and London, Sept. 13, 8:50 a. m.—The following official state- ment was issued today at the Turkish war office: “In the Anafarta section our artillery on the right wing destroyed some enemy caissons while that on the left wing directed a heavy fire | against enemy trenches. “Nothing of importance occurred Yesterday near Ari Burnu. “Near Seddul Bahr two enemy crui- sers and a torpedo boat fired inef- fectually at our various positions.” Belgians Disperse Germans. Havre, France, Sept. 13, 9 a. m.— The following official statement re- garding the operations of the Bel- gian army was issued today: “There was a light bombardment along the entire front Our artillery dispersed Germans working near Milestone No 12 on the Yser and near Diegrachten.” Austro-Germans Progressing. London, Sept. 18, 11:44 a. m.—The Austro-German armies on the eastern front, still striving for definite results, are making progress everywhere ex- cept along the Galicia frontier, where the Russians report a further success. In the north where the Russian line has been straightened by a witdrawal of forces, Field Marshal von Hinden- | burg is directing a violent drive towards Dvinsk and a crossing of the % Dorina. In the center Crown Prince Leopold has forced his way over the Zelwianka, and is attacking in the vicinity of Skidel. Imthe south Field Marshal Von Mackensen, on both ' sides of the Pinsk railroad, is pressing ' pastward towards the town. These movements have resulted in the cap- ture of several thousand Russians. The final objective of the central | powers in this campaign is still a mat- ¥ ter of conjecture, but General Ruz- ! sky, commander of the northern Rus- ;Isian army, declares positively that 4w .

Residents of West Main street and Grove Hill were awakened from their sleep at 2:10 o’clock this morning by the sharp bark of a revolver and a few minutes later by the sound of the po- lice patrol in the street and police- men scouting the neighborhood. ‘While patroling his beat Officer | Michael Massey discovered a strange | man on the porch of.the home of Frederick Whittlesey gt 279 West Main street. The man had every ap- pearance of a burglar intent upon ef- | fecting an entrance.’ He fled at the officer’s approach and a shot from the patrolman’s automatic failed to hit the mark. Officer Hellberg and Sergeant George Kelley hurried to the vicinity in the patrol but a thorough search of the neighbrohood failed to locate the man. It is thought possible that the stranger may have been the same West Main street home last week. ROBINGTON MOURNING: HIS HORSES AND CASH Miller Is Missing, So Are Three Equines and Some Money. Sam Robington, the well known horse trader, is a sorrowful man these days and the cause of his grief is due 1o what appears to be one of the finest flim-flams he ever received. Sam is a horse trader and is supposed to be one of the craftiest. But Sam is not evidently as foxy as he or many of his friends have supposed for some time. The tale of the deal in which Sam figured is as follows: Some time ago Richard F. Miller, also known to many persons who engage in the business that made “David Harum” famous, bought a number of horses from Patrick Condon of Bristol, for which he made a small deposit. He shipped the animals to this city and tegan dickering for their sale or trade. One of the first to examine the horses was Robington, who took amount and $125 to complete the bar- Sam at once began to make hay while the sun was shining, so he dis- | posed of the animals to local people, | among them a man by the name of Shapiro. He was chuckling with glee over the excellent business he had dcne, but he had not the faintest idea of what was to follow. In the meantime Mr. Condon on pot receiving the money for the horses from Miller, decided to take the animals back so he secured a re- plevin and an officer came to this city, and, on learning of the transaction between Miller and Robington, im- mediately made demand on the latter for the horses. Robington was in a bad fix just about this time for he didn’t have the horses and so informed the minion of the law, but after the latter had Miller, a search was made for him. But Miller evidently had flitted by the was con- spicuous by his absence. The constable then insisted on the return of the horses so he went with Sam to the parties to whom he had swapped off Miller’'s horses and took possession of them and toek them back to the Bell city. Now Sam is figuring out just how much he is out by the deal for all that he is minus is $125 and three horses which he prized highly. Efforts to locate Miller have proved futile, and the tenement formerly coccupied by his family on East street, it is said, carries a ‘“To Let” sign. It is also rumored that the horses which Sam gave to Miller in the trade were sold by Miller in New Haven under the hammer last week. McDONALD PRESIDES Former Highway Commissioner w' Take Charge of Pan-American Road Congress in Absence of Gov. Gates. Oakland, Cal, Sept. 13.—Gov. Charles W. Gates of Vermont, who was here to preside over the Pan- American Road congress was on his way today to Franklin, Vt., to attend the funeral of his mother, Mrs. L. Rebecca Gates, who died there Satur- day. James H. MacDonald, director of the congress and former Connecticut state highway commissioner will act s the presiding officer of the conven- tion. FIRE COST $250,000. Colorado Springs, Col., Sept. 13— Fire early today destroyed the Man- sion hotel at Manitou, one of the | largest in this region. The property was 50,000. The hotel was closed last week for the season. CALLED TO COLORS, Rome, Sept. 12, via Paris, Sept. 13, 5:10 a. m.—All Bulgarian reservists ir. Italy have been recalled to the colors. Transportation expenses are being defrayed through the legation | here. TURKS FACE DEFEAT IN DARDANELLES Position of Defenders Precarious —Forces Thinned Out TRIUMVIRATE IN CONTROL Two Ministers and Police Chief in Charge of Affairs—Taalat Bey Gets ‘Transportation Facilities—Revolution Imminent. High Prices—No Athens, Sunday, Sept. 12, Via. Paris, Sept. 13, 11 a. m.—An American citizen of standing in Athens has re- ceived advices from Constantinople, which he says are trustworthy, that the position of Turkish forces defend- ing the Dardanelles is precarious. It is said the Turkish front, thinned by the heavy losses which the fighting has entailed on both sides, is finding it increasingly difficult to hold the lines against the French and British. Turkey’s position at sea is described as disadvantageous. The former Ger- man cruisers Goeben and Breslau, re- named, respectively, the Sultan Selim and Medullu, are said to have been incapaciated, while the Russian fleet preys upon Turkish shipping. Under Triumvirate. According to this information, Tur- kish affairs are under the control of a triumvirate ‘with autocratic powers, consisting of Enver Pasha, minister of war; Taalat’ Bey, minister of the interior, and Bedri Bey, chief of police of Constantinople. Dissatisfaction among the Moslems is reported and it is said the Shiek ul Islam was dis- mjssed because he did not approve of measures taken against the Ar- menians. The committee of union and progress is reported to have been virtually superseded by a secret com- mittee which is desponsive to the wishes of the triumvirate. Christians Murdered. The American’s informant states that Armenians are being sent to concentration camps at various points, being driven afoot or forwarded in box cars. He adds .that the earlier massacres of Christians in Asia Minor are being duplicated in the present in- stance and that in some cases'only a comparatively small part of the ex- velled Armenians reach the concen- trations camps alive. Henry Morgen- thau, American ambassador at Con- stantinople, has exerted every effort to protect the Armenians, but appar- ently his endeavors have been un- availing. It is stated that American women who attempted to go with the refugees to look out for Armenian children were turned back, and that a number of young Armenian girls who were students at the American college at Constantinople fell into the hands of the Turks. . No Transportation. Owing to the interruption of sea transportation it is almost impossible to purchase coal in Constantinople and wood is being used for locomo- tives. The crops were good, but it has been almost impossible to harvest them. Petroleum costs one dollar a gallon and the price of sugar has in- creased seven fold. The American’s informant states that the agreement said to have been reached between Turkey and Bulgaria has not affected a definite settlement of relations, but that, to the contrary, the Turks are hastily erecting de- fenses against the Bulgarians. Sheik ul Islam Resigns. London, Sept. 13, 1:26 p. m.—Con- ditions in Constantinople are de- scribed as chaotic by Reuter’s corres- poundent at Athens, who bases his de- spatch on statements made by persons arriving at Athens today from the Turkish capital. The correspondent telegraphs: “The inhabitants of Constantinople are suffering greater hardships than is necessary because the committee of national defense, run by Enver Pasha, minister of war, and Taalat Bey, minister of the interior, have cornered all commedities and are selling them at high prices. “The resignation from the cabinet of the Sheik ul Islam, representative of the sultan in religious affairs, is confirmed. He disapproved of the ex- termination of the Christian elements, against which he bprotested to the cabinet. The Greek-Armenian pa- triarch has been deprived of all powers. “The Black Sea end of the Bos- rhorus has been closd by a chain of wire netting and by mines.” Trouble With Djemal Pasha. Rome, Sept. 12, Via. Paris, Sept. 13, 5 a. m.—The attitude of Djemal Pasha, former minister of marine, is giving the Turkish committee of union and progress much anxiety, the Tribuna says it has learned from ., sources of information in the Balkans. He is reported to be in Arabia in constant contact with Shieks anad Emirs hostile to the committee, while Arab preachers are trying to foment rebellion among the inhabitants. Taalat Bey, minister of the in- terior, realizes, it is said, that the situat] n is seno s and ot holding entir| %em to retur power Hilmi P ormer grand vizier, who now is ambassador to Austria Hungary. Hostility to the (Continued on Tenth Page.) | MAYOR’S DEEP SECRET FINALLY MADE PUBLIC Committee on Consideration of His Vetoes Was Appointed Last Week But Kept Dark, Despite the cloak of secrecy that Mayor George Absent Quigley hag at- tempted to throw around himselr, it became known today that he haq aj- ready appointed a committee of three to consider his two vetoes tendered at the last meeting of the common | council. The council passed a motion ‘( by Councilman Landers that the com- mittee be appointed to consider the vetoes and also to consider a resolu- tion offered by Councilman Orson Fight Curtis, calling for the rejection of one of the vetoes. The committee consists of Alderman | Albert Anderson and Councilman Er- nest L. Tiech and Frank L. Conlon: Thinking to keep the matter a deep secret from the newspapers and also | with the intention of keeping his op- ponents in a beclouded state of ming, the mayor refrained from making the names of the committee public, there- by having a quiet laugh all to his hon- orable self. But he whose laugh ig the last laugh laughs a longer and louder laugh and the Herald learned the names today. It is said the com- mittee will meet this evening. It is not known just what Council- man Curtis ekpects to furnish in the way of surprises at the September meeting of the common council Wed-« nesday evening but it is said that he has been quietly working on a secret trail and those who are close to him say he has an ace concealed up his sleeve- MAN AND WIFE SHOT, BOARDER IS PURSUED Four Bullets Injure Mr. and Mrs. Walker — Assailant Flees to Woods.

Harding found that his attempt to fire a fifth shot was futile as there had been only four loaded cartridges in the weapon. Mr. Walker was hit in the rigat shoulder and on the left side of the head. His wife was wound- ed on the right cheek and on the right e. Both were taken to the | Greenwich hospital where it is said | that their wounds probably would not result ceriously. Harding left the house and is being rursued. He went into the woods near the Edgewood Inn. The reason for Harding’s act is not known. He is said to have felt aggrieved at Mrs. Walker over some trivial matter ond previously had threatened to shoot her. Harding fifty-five years old and Mr. and Mrs. Walker are each about forty-five.

SANT" ANNA' SAFE IS LATEST WORD Boat Under Conmvoy fo Port— Carried 1,600 Men NO NEWS UNTIL LATE | Fact That No Message From Captain Has Been Received Leads to Theory That Ship May Not Be Ablaze— Was in Direct Line of Travel. York, Sept. 13.—The Sant’ Anna, was on fire in mid-ocean, is safe and proceeding under escort to the Azores, according to a wircless message re- ceived at the line’s offices today. New Line Fabre steamship which ‘New York, Sept. 13.—The local offices of the Fabre line received no word during the morning hours today regarding their steamer Sant’ Anna bonyd from w York for Italian ports with more than 1,600 Italian re- servists and a large cargo of food- s:tufi's which had been reported on fire about 960 miles southeast from Halifax, N.'S., in a wireless message received at the latter point late last night. D.-H. E. Jones, senior partner of the firm of James W. Elwell & Com- pany, local agents of the Fabre line, said he was at a loss to understand Wwhy ‘Capt. Francois Pavey, of the Sant’ Anna had not -communicated Wilh the office here if his ship were actually on fire or in distress in any way. *It is ‘possible that the fire which occurred on the Joseph W. Fordney, one of the firm’s American ships, was responsible for the message regard- ing the Sant’ Anna’ said Mr. Jones. “The Fordney, which is a freighter, sailed from Archangel, Russia, on Augnst 18 for New York. Last Wed- nesday a fire was discovered in one of Tier holds among 800 bales of flax. “The Fordney put into St. Johns, > F., Wednesdn ment there g trol, New York. yesterday by the Cape Race station as being all right.” The message received at Her 40. an1 needed a ziven as latitude longtitude 47.30 west. imately 960 miles southe Halif1x, and as the Sant’ Anna's radio cquiprment was not powerful, it was thouzht the message had been relayed by a steamer much nearer Halifax than the position given for the Sant’ Anna. Cargo of Foodstuffs, When the Sant’ Anna sailed from New York on September 8, she car- ried a cargo consisting largely of focdstuffs. According to her owners here there were no arms or ammuni- tion aboard. The Italians, gathered irom every part of the United States &nd returning to join the army, were in the steerage. Comparatively few passengers were carried in the first and second cabin. The crew num- bered about 100. “Several of our vessels have been set on fire recently,” said Howard E. Jones, of the firm of James E. Elwell, agents for the Fabre line. “We have had the vessels under the closest kind of watch while in port and no Ger- mans or Austrians were permitted on the pier. We cxamined every picce of freight offered as cargo to guard against bombs and infernal ma- chines.” Suspicious of Bomb. It was said today that the sailing of the Sant’ Anna from this port was delayed twenty-four hours to permit a thorough search, because the suspicions of her officers had been aroused by rumors that a bomb had been placed aboard. The message from the Cape Race wireless station, as received here via. Halifax, was flashed abroad on the Atlantic and without doubt was picked up by vessels within easy sail of the sheamer. in distress. It was under- stood here today, however, that the government was preparing to send a relief ship from Halifax unless word was received today that air had reached the Sant’ Anna from some other source.

Income Tax Expected to Fur- nish Large Funds to Brit- ish Government. London, Sept. 13.—When parlia- ment reassembles tomorrow its prin- cipal concern will be schemes of new taxation to help in providing for the expenscs of the war. An increase and extension of the in- come tax is expected in most quarters .and possibly new duties on luxuries “of varions character. Other t= gested are upon railway tickets, theaters and motion pictures, auto- mobiles ard carriages, and employers of domertic servants. But the greater part of the billion dolars or so which the gove ment hop to add to its annual - come will come, according to the well informed, from the income tax. Most | authorities are agreed that the half n- | will be lowerea. It is ecstimated that the total in- | come of the inhabitants of the British | Isles is $12,000,000,000 a year. | this, less than five billion dollars now ed for taxation. The :ew legislation is expected to reach at least threc aad a half billion dollars more. For the small workman, it 1s ssible that the collection of the tax y'be made in weekly installmeants, by means of stamps affixed to weekly war tax card. | With the modifications of the ccme tax which Reginald McKenn chanteilor cf the exchequer, is pected to iniroduce into the new bna- get, will come an opportunity for a | general revision of the method of col- lection. in- ex- BOY'S SKULL FRAC!
