SENATE AGREES ON ARMY BILL (Continued from Page One) orders from Washington and that 90 per cent. of the Mexican people would welcome such action. He also de- clared that representatives of Gener- al Carranza were negotiating with for- elgn governments against the United States and that this government would be forced to fight forergn forces on Mexican soil if it did not soon do its full duty to the people of Mexico and the United' States, Attack on National Guard. Senator Borah, of Idaho, renewing , his attack on the national guard as a political force, declared that it would prove fo be more detrimental to the Uniteq States than an invading army. He arraigned Great Britain for the Irish executions, declaring there had been no greater blow to free institu- tions since the European war began. Lodge and Stone Criticize Army Bill Senator Lodge and Chairman Stone of the foreign relations committee also criticised the army bill, the former blaming the house for not accepting a larger army proposed by the senate and e injumction is to the suit in equity brought nd;-tmumfl ‘William Dartmouth Defeats Princeton.

Senator Stone sald he was so anxious to see the nitrate provision enacted that he would almost be willing to agree to any size army necessary, but insisted there was no need of an increased urmy.

FATI A Sensible Cigare FOR ig¢ IRREGULARITY FEATURED MARK Seemed to Be Governed Exclusively by Speculative Considerations. New York. May 17.—Irregularity was the dominant feature of today's market, which seemed to be governed almost_ entirely by speculative con- siderations or exigencies. Peace ru- mors were again prevalent, but they exerted little more than' passing in- fluence. ~ A far more potent factor was the continued selling of international issues, including United States Steel. ‘Wall street is without direct means of tracing the source of this liquidation, but it bedrs the marks of foreign ori- in. ® Stocks were under partial restraint at the opening, but withstood persist- ent pressure until midday, when most of the specialties and allied issues fell sharply on rumors that threatened a revival of recent international diffi- culties. There were rallies from the low levels of that period, but they failed to hold, despite the strength of Reading, which featured the final hour on its cumulative advance of 2 5-3 to the new high record of 93 1-4. Munitions and motors were.at all times variable, when not heavy, the latter scoring extreme recessions of 3 to 8 points, with losses of 1 to 3 in the so-called munitions. The one striking exception to the general ten- dency in the war stock shares was General Electric, which recorded a gain of 3 1-4 on its rise to 170 3-4. In- ternational Harvester Corporation, an inactive industrial, gained a maximum of 8 1.2 to 84. Mexicans were firm during the fore- noon, ‘but fell away with coppers and other metals on. increased offerings later. United States Steel was more prominent than yesterday, but its ac- tivity was largely at the expense of its strength, closing as practically a point loss. Aside from Reading, the tendency of rails was downward, ian Pacific yielding much of its recent rise, with materiai recessions in other standard issues of that division. Mercantile Marines bade fair to make new rec- ords at one time, but gave way tow- ards the end, when the course of prices indicated an excess of supply over de- mand. Total sales of stocks amounted to_710,000 shares. Receipt of additional gold from Canada imparted further strength to sterling and francs, but trading in ffl:fsn remittances was almost nom- int Demand for Anglo-French fives con- tributed largely to the firm market for bonds.

It's just as safe to predict second place for Yale in the coming inter- collegiate games as it is to declare Cornell the point winner in advnce, says Valentine in the New York Globe. The Elis, barring Cornell, of course, have the only well-balanced track leges , and unless Johnny Overton breaks a leg: and. Wesley Oler is taken sick in the meantime, Yale is almost certain to be the run- ner-up to Jack Moakley's ‘pupils in the Harvard stadium. Yale has a good sprinter in Hea- ton Treadway. He did ten seconds for the hundred, and beat twenty- two for the furlong at the Yale~ Harvard games last Saturday.. Val Wilkie’s place in the quarter-mile has not been plugged up, but there’s Johnny Overton, who is sure of a place in two of the three longer races. Farwell may be good for a couple of points in the hurdles.. Braden did forty-four feet with the shot last Sat- urday, which should be good for a minor place in the big games. Oler will score well in the high jump, and with Hampton and Oler, botk of whom have bettered twenty-three feet, Yale should grabg a couple of points in the ‘broad.” Buck and Nagel both did twelve feet six inches in the vault last Saturday, which means that Yale will probably have a say in the split-up of the various ties that usually result when the vaulters start their afternoon’s work. Lafayette Wins ‘Annual Meet. Easton, Pa., May 17.—Lafayette col- leze today defeated Lehigh in their annual fleld and track meet, 79 points to 23. Rain in the forenoon made the track heavy. New Haven—The New Haven Clock company had a consignment of 10,000 clocks, worth over $5,000, on the liner Cymrie, sunk by a German submarine last week. The clocks were consign- ed to 'Liverpool, and although they were fully insured, the company feels very much chagrined over it, as steam- ers now are so few and far between. 100 Cal Petrol pr 100 Can _Southern.

Eight Who Were Missing Are on - Board Round Shoal Lightship. - Boston, May 17.—The mine laying ship $an Francisco was stranded for several hours today on one of the Nantucket Shoals, but freed herself without assistance tonight and tonight lay at anchor in deep water, waiting for tie fog to lift before proceeding. According to wireless meassages from her commander, R. R. Belknap, the mine laver was apparently injured only slightly by her pounding on the shoal. A diver's examiration will be necessary to determine the precise damage. . For a time today the San Francisco's officers feared they had lost eight members of her crew. The men, who left the stranded cruiser in a whale- boat to place a kedge anchor, were blown off by the gale and lost their bearings in the heavy fog. After row- ing about for several hours, they sighted Great Round Shoals lightship and were taken aboard. There they awaited tonight a coast guard cutter or some other vessel which would re- turn them to their ship. 4 ‘The San Francisco, formerly a mem- ber of the famous White Squadron, was_ bound from Portsmouth, N. for Newport, R. OFPENSIVE MOVEMENT OF AUSTRIANS CONTINUES Have Captured a Number of Positions on the Italian Front. Berlin, May 17.—(By Wireless to Sayville)—The new offensive move- ment of the Austrians on the Italian front is continuing successfully and a number of other positions have been captured, an official statement from Vienna says. More than 6,000 men, 13 cannon and 17 machine guns have been taken. The statement follows: “Anstro-Hungarian troops advanced on Armentara Ridge. On 1garino plateau they captured positions of the enemy at Sogliodasplo, - Cosina, Cos- taragra and Maronia. Austrioan-Hun- garian troops aiso entered the Terrig- nola sector at Piazza, and drove the Italians from Moschere. During the night they stormed Zegnatorta, south of Roverto. “The number of prisoners taken in this fighting reached 141 officers and 6,200 men. We also captured seven- teen machine guns and thirteen can- non.” —_— DEBATE IN COMMONS ON BRITISH AERIAL SERVICE Old Accusations of Inadequacy Were Repeated. b London, May 17, 8.25 p. m.—The de- bate in the house of commons today on the British serial service was of no interest éxcept for the statement of Harold J. Tennant, parliamentary under secretary of war, of the ap- pointment of a new board, of which Earl Curseon is to be president. Colonel Winston Spencer Churchill and William Joynson-Hicks among others, vigorously attacked the gov- ernment, repeating the old accusations of inadequacy. Andrew Bonar Law, secretary for the Colonfes, defended the govern- ment, told how the British air service ‘was constantly improving. Finally the debate collapsed, amid laughter, owing to the absence of a quorum. SAYS 800 YAQUI INDIANS HAVE STARTED NORTH Story of an American Who Arrived at Eagle Pass From Torreon. San Antonio, Texas, May 17.—S. F. Seiferm, an American who arrived at Eagle Pass today from Torreon, was credited in a special despatch to the San Antonio Light, as saying that 800 Yaqui troops started north three days ago with the avowed _intention of “wiping out” Colonel Frederick Sib- ley’s command. 'He also was quoted as saying the Carranza .and Villa troeps in the vicinity of Torreon were uniting “to_go after the gringoes.” General Funston said he assumed that the movement of the 800 troops ‘was nothing more than a part of Gen- eral Obregon’s plan to police the dis- trict south of Bouquillas. -NORWICH, CONN.
