General Strike May
Be Called New York
NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—A strike
of gigantic dimensions is about to
be voted upon in this city, which
will completely paralyze all trade.
New voting orders were issued to
the Longshoremen, machinists and
others to be held on Monday, and it
is practically certain all will go out
according to an acute authority on
labor sentiment.
All Hebrew trade unionists have
voted to join the strike in New
York city. The efforts to run cars
is hardly successful, the boycott
driving thousands to the jitneys.
Picketing still proceeds. Shonts ot
the traction company says that he
will prosecute any union joins in
the sympathetic strike as conspiring
to injure his business. He says
that filing charges in the event fo
such a strike is certain.
CJuackenbush, fhe traction coun
sel, says the right to ask men to
quit is in itself illegal, for it is
coercing them into breaking their
contracts with employers which no
union has the right to do. Union
men say that Quackenbush is a
legal fossil lost in modern surround
ings. It is predicted that a half a
million will be out on Tuesday, and
three quarters of a million on
Thursday tying up the whole city.
There is a regular industrial panic
in all industrial circles, and Wall
streets reflects this feeling.

LANSING SENDS NOTE
TO U. S. AMBASSADOR
WASHINGTON D. C., Sept. 17.—
Secretary of State Lansing today di
rected the London embassy to in
vestigate England’s intention to
wards the embargo on American
and Scandinavian products. It Is
held that they are now holding ship
ments were intended for rations for
neutral nations.
Lansing is seeking direct infor
mation preparatory to launching a
firm ultimatum to Great Britain on
the matter.
LONDON, Sept. 17.—Ambassador
Page has made arrangements for a
diplomatic conference with the For
eign Minister tomorrow morning, re
lative to the British embargo on
neutral shipments. This has aroused
considerable but guarded specula
tion in the press.
LONDON, Sept. 17.—The radical
press is demanding that the govern
ment take steps to nationalize the
food supply before too late. The rise
in prices is declared to be nothing
short of scandalous, and the for
tunes which provision contractors
are making are nothing short or
being deliberate robbery of the
people.
Winston Churchill is taking a
leading part in agitating this de
mand, and is gaining considerable
notoriety thereby.
This is likely to assume enormous
dimensions at an early date.
VILLA CELEBRATES THE
MEXICAN INBEPENDENCE
EL PASO, Sept. 17.—A United
Press story from Chihuahua has
thrown this city into a ferment.
Villa with six hundred men invaded
Chihuahua, and only after the Car
ranzists had lost heavily and Gen
eral Trevino was himself wounded
in the arm were they driven out.
The Mexican regulars captured
over a hundred of the Villatistas
and these have all been summarily
executed.

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 17.—The
arming by Vilfa of his followers
with guns and munitions is exciting
the government here. They claim
that Chihuahua dispatches indicate
that the Villatists were found to be
armed with rifles and munition ot
American manufacture, and they
allege that interventionists have
been able by some means to secure
them for the Villatists.
The government is now taking de
termined steps to obliterate Villa
for once and all. They are not all
satisfied that Villa really led his
men, and that another bandit is now
assuming his name.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 17.—
It is recognized that the Villa ac
tivity will delay the Pershing with
drawal.

Teutons Report Great
Defeat Russo=Rumanians
BERLIN, Sept. 17.—The Teuton
forces have administered a crushing
defeat to the Russians and Ruman
ians, retiring their center thirty
miles along the Danubian front
capturing and occupying Darapoa,
Sablea, Burnv, Ilanik and a dozen
Dobrudschan villages. The Ruman
jan.s will probably make a stand at
feonstantinza railroad center, be
cause final success depends upon the
probable outcome of the fighting
there for all Dobrudscha.
BERLIN, Sept. 17.—A11 Germany
is rejoicing at he victory in Dubrud
scha. This is most disastrous defeat
that the Allies suffered since Servia
was crushed a year ago. Mackenzen
reports that Germans, Turks and
Bulgars fighting and advancing
from Bulgaria completely routed the
Servians, Russians ar.d Ru» lai.’ians
in a three day battle in Dobrudscha,
while three Russian units were de
stroyed. German infantry and ar
tillery are responsible for the rapid
conquest of Turkan. The drive re
sembles the Paris drive at the be
ginning of the war. When Silistria
was evacuated the Germans pursued
the enemy and single patrols of Ger
man hussars conquered an entire
Rumanian battery of artillery.
Von Hindenberg has returned'
from the -southern front, -oatisfied
that the Germans are impregnable.
He is now watching the Macedonian
developments where the allies ara
making some slight gains.
HAIG REPORTS CAPTUR
TWO THOU
GERMANS
LONDON, Sept. 17.—With the
British gains in the Somme region
increasing in magnitude the pecu
liar tendency of the censor is mani
fested to delete in all published dis
patches names of places.
Thus Haig reports that two thou
sond were taken prisoners when the
British troops captured an unmen
tioned position on the Somme, and
the gains are since reaching higher
hourly, with intensive fighting pro
ceeding.
PARIS, Sept. 17.—The British
troops advanced a mile nearer to
Baupaume today and took posses
sion of a large fringe of woods skirt
ing a village on the Baupaume road,
taking about two thousand Germans
who found their retreat walled oft
by a terrific sheet of shrapnel fire
that meant destruction of anything
attempting to pass through that
zone.
The British high power guns are
now demolishing the railroad stores
around Bapuame, and frequent ex
plosions mark the destruction ot
munition trains which have been
left too long behind by the retreat
ing Germans.
The British are now moving for
ward along the south bank of Ancro
stream, and heavy fighting is pro
ceeding in this vicinity.
LONDON, Sept. 17.—British pa
pers ridicule the reported gains ot
the Germans in Dobrudscha, claim
ing that such reports of a tremend
ous victory are sent out with a view
of preventing Greece's entry into the
war.
SOFIA REPORTS RIG

dispatch announces that the Serv
ians captured Fiorina the chief base
of operations for the Bulgar right
on the southern front. The Bul
gars fought desperately and their
losses are enormous, the French ar
tillery aiding in the subjection ot
the positions having anihilated
tens of thousands troops. The
Bulgars are now savagely resisting
the pursuing foes to hold Mona
stir against the Allies, for the loss
of this city to the northward would
expose their entire right flank to the
Italian army advancing across
Epirus.
ATHENS, Sept. 17.—Nikolas Ka
legeroprulos, the new Premier, in
the selection of his cabinet indicates
that he supports the Allies; for
every man so far asked to accept a
portfolio is one identified with the
policies of Venlzelos and very
strongly pro-ally in their sentiments.
This is very satisfactory to the in
terests of the people as the hatred
of Bulgaria is now beyond words
owing to the treatment to which the
Greek troops were subjected at
Kavala.
