PEKIN, Oct. 29—Baron Aliotti, th<

But it was sufficient to stir up £
tempest in China, which has good rea

The Italian minister’s request was
not supported by the other Entente
ministers. But it is difficult to make
China believe so. Secret agreements
have wrought so much havoc in the

SALUTE MEMORY
OF FULLER
HEROES
(By Associated Press)
FRENCH FRONT. Oct. 29—"Atten
tion! The division will salute the
■ memory of those of its comrades who
have fallen while fighting for their
country,"
The voice of General Michel, one
of the young French Commanders,
who, by sheer merit has made his way
to the front rank during the war, rang
out clearly over a stubble field not
far from the fighting lints. The
troops of his division, drawn up in a
deep formation facing towards the
point whence the sound of the Ger-'
man guns could be heard plainly, pre
sented arms and the drums tapped out
a general salute, while the colors of
the various regiments were lowered
out of respect for those who had died
on the field of battle. The long rows
of bayonets remained perfectly still
for several minutes while the roll of
the drums continued, even after this
had ceased and absolute silence reign
ed, the men stood motionless for a
further period, their thoughts with
their former comrades.
This ceremonial honoring of those
.who have made the great sacrifice is
always carried out after a division has
left the first line trenches, for during
the fighting it is often impossible to
perform any religious service Over
those who fall and are buried where
they die. Respect for the dead is
deeply ingrained in the French char
acter and the .soldiers appreciate
greatly such an opportunity to honor
those who have died-a warrior's death.
The division concerned today had
seen much fighting all along the front
for it had served on Alsace, at Ver
dun. on the Somme and on the Aisne,
where attacks from one side or the
other have been of daily occurrence
for nearly four monthB. One of its
units was a battalion of the famous
chasseurs who are to be found where
ever the fighting is heavy, and before
the memorial service another cere
mony had taken place, for it was this
battalion's turn to be entrusted with
the charge of the regiment flag of
the chasseurs for a period of three
months. Each battalion in rotation Is
accorder this honor and every man in
the battalion guarding the color seems
to feel a personal pride in the emblem
beneath which he marcne*. two ttow
bears at the head of its staff the three
highest military decorations—the Le
gion of Honor, the military medal and
the war cross—bestowed as a reward
for the constant and conspicious brav
e-v of t,'.o soldiers who have fought
under it.
These chosen troops, the chasseurs,
had made history long before this
war. The first Napoleon had a bat
talion of chasseurs in the Guards C Di
vision of the Grand Army. Afterwards
they disappeared from the army lists
for a time, but were reconstituted by
the Duke of Orleans under Louis
Philippe.
Solferino, during the Italian war of
Liberation, and Sebastopol, in the Cri
mean war, added to the fame of the
chasseurs, and during the war of the
year 1870 against the Prussians they
distinguished themselves on many oc
casions. .
EGYPT'S SUPPLY
OF COAL NOW
THREATENED
CAIRO, Oct. 29—The fuel question
■ threatens to become serious in Egypt
during the coming year owing to the
' impossibility of obtaining adequate
* imports of coal. Government experts
f hope to solve the difficulty partially
' by developing a useful fuel from cot
! ton stalks. Experiments to this end
are being carried out by Prof. J. F.
Wells.
■ Egypt produces no coal, grows very
few trees and those not for firewood,
and her oilfields are not as yet suf
ficiently developed to meet local re
quirements. Both oil and coal im
ports have fallen off more than fifty
per cent, since the war. To econo
mize fuel, street lighting has been de
creased by a quarter, all shops are
closed at 7 p. m., all restaurants at
10 and all places of amusement at 11.
