The understlnding here is that the French foreign office has sent to London a drait of a mote and that dispatch of the joint reply is being delayed there.

Homer Wilson of Muskogee, Okl, leaping from his speeding horse upon the horns of a fleeing steer, fell into a hopeless tlnfile with the big brindle animal, and when the steer shook it- self free and fled Wilson did not rise. Charley Irwin galloped up with a cup of cold water, which he dashed into his face to bring his breath back, Besides losing his breath, Wilson had his face skinned and his legs so badly bruised that he had to be as- sisted back to the starter’s stand.

That is the feat of standing on their heads in the saddle at a gallop. But aside from this they perform feats on the backs of galloping horses that would make the Cossack seek home and mother. 4 The afternoon crowd in the grand- stand and bleachers was somewhat larger than the first day, perhaps 3,530.

The decree does not directly mention Germans, but states that allies of Austria are to be treated as enemies and their subjects and goods are liable to sequestration. é b Prior to the war German property and interests in Italy were estimated to be worth $250,000,000. Their value now is placea at about $150,000,000. There are only a few German sub- jects in Italg' now, and these will be either placed in concentration camps, or sent across the Swiss border, . There has been a strong agitation in I!aéy for some time for the break- ing off of all relations with Germany. The curious situation caused by Italy being at war with Austria, while nominally at peace with Germany was emphasized by an agreement between Rame and Berlin, wherein all rights of the citizens of one country domi- ciled in the other were to be respected. A July 6 this agreement was de- nounced on the ground that it was not being observed by Germany. At the great council of the entente powers, held in Paris last February, the Italian representatives were Yreued for an explanation as to why taly had not declared war on Ger- many. On February 29, Italy re- quisitioned thirty-four German ships which were interned in Italian ports, As a similar action by Portugl had romptly called forth an ultimatum rom Berlin which was followed by a declaration of war, it was confidently exrecte_d that the same sequel would follow in regard to Italy. "As far-as is known, however, ilhelmstrasse did not even make a protest.. If war is now declared Italian troops may be sent to the western.front, according to the expectations expfessed in Lon- don and Paris. » Forty Killed During Storm in Mexico Mexico City, July 21.—Forty per- sons, including a number of soldiers and women, were killed during a very severe lightning and rainstorm in the suburbs of Mexico City yesterday.

All of the crew and officers were taken prisoner, The hull of the submarine is in good condition, but showed a num- er of dents where it struck obstacles in its underwater voyages. The craft shows signs of rapis it{ of construc- tion, but appears well fitted for short trips across the North Sea.
