° SINDIND'S PARTY BOMBED FRON AR American Fliers Inflict Casnal- .« fies on Bodyguard Managua, Nicaragua, July 26 (P— American marine fliers were be- lieved today to have inflicted a num- ber of casualties on the bodyguard of General Augustino Sandino, in- surgent leader. Three of the five planes which sought out the insurgent position near the Honduran border struck by rebel rifie and machine gun fire. The damage was not con- sidered serious. ‘The marines met the attack with machine guns, rifles and bombs, showering the insurgent camp. The air squadron was led by Ma- Jor Ross E. Rowell, chief of the marine air service in Nicaragua, and by Major L. M. Bourne, Jr., who will succeed him shortly. Hopping off from Managua, they headed for the district a few miles south of the Honduran border near the con- fluence of the Poteca and Coco rivers. A week ago planes flying over that region had been fired on without result in this attack gave the marines the location of the rebel position, As the airmen flew over the camp, a small lumber mill owned Ly a German named Gulcke recently seized by insurgents, they were shot at. The marines immediately brought their rifies and machine guns into action and also dropped bombs on the camp. Because of the dense growth of the forest it is impossible to learn the damage inflicted. It was be- lieved at headquarters, however, that a number of casualties had re- sulted. Marine officers thought that the band attacked was the immediate bodyguard of General Sandino. He is known to be in that district. San- dino, however, scldom appears in the front rank when there is fighting in progress, proferiing to direct the operations of his followers from a distance. Brigadier General Logan Feland, commanding the marines in Nicara. gua, had stated betore word of the encounter reached headquarters that Sandino was near the border, which he sometimes probably crossed into Honduras but returned again to Nicaragua. Bogoto, Columbia, July 26 (A— Press dispatches from Medellin state that a group of young men are anxious to join the forces of the raguan rebel leader General Augustino Sandine. They have petitioned newspapers in that city to open a public sub- scription for defraying the cost of their transportation to Nicaragua. were | Michelson to Test Light Speed Again Chicago, July 26 UP—Two Cali- fornia mountains, 50 miles apart, will form a scientific laboratory again this summer for Prof. Albert A. Michelson, famous physicist of the University of Chicago. The &ci- entist on whose experiments the Elustein theory is based will use the mountains to make new measure- ments of the exact speed at which light travels. He will use revolving and tionary mirrors on Mounts Wilson and Santiago to check the correct- ness of his discovery in 1926 that light travels 186,284 miles a second. Using the modernized apparatus at the Mt Wilson Observatory, Pasadena, Cal, Michelson also will test again his observation that the | measurement of the velocity of light in the direction of the move- ment of the solar system is the | same as that of light at right an- gles to the motion of the solar | system. ata- RUSSIANS BUY CAYUSES Portland, Ore.—Range horses, {now valued principally for their hides, are beginning to go to Rus- sian markets to be hitched to droshkys and plows.

Backed by a declaration of Judge Frank A. Milliken in the district court earlier in the day that picket- ing as then carried on would have to be stopped, police last night seiz- ed 82 men and women from lines in front of the Sharp mill, scene of a serious clash the previous night. Those arrested will be charged with rioting when arralgned in dis- trict court probably some time to- day. The raid on the mass picketing was carried out with the assistance of 33 policemen from Fall River. Deputy Chief Chase who headed the force first warned the pickets against illegal parading and then as the op- €ratives continued to patrol the lines, the officers drove back a large crowd of onlookers while deputy sheriffs read the riot act, The policemen immediately seized those nearest and in a few minutes the 82 pickets had been hustled into waiting motor trucks and were on | their way to the police station. A few attempted resistance, but were quickly subdued. Those who escaped made hasty departures.
