Mexico City, Oct. 12.--An attack on
the night of October 10 on San Angel
and other suburbs of Mexico City by
adherents of Emiliano Zapata, caused
a reign of terror in the capital until
today. The suspense was relieved
when it was officially announced to
day th:at Zapatn's followers had agreed
to cease all fighting until the termina
tion of the peace conference between
the northern and son:hern constitul
tionalist gecnerals at Aguas C'alientes.
The invaders entered San Angel at
7 o'clock Saturday night and heavy
firing was, begun. The government
immediately impressed a number of
the striking streetcar motormen into
service and rushed 1,500 men with
arti!llg..to.,an p.el to reinforce the
garrison there.
Fighting in Streets.
Fighting in the streets between the
invaders and the defenders followed.
Xochimlle was completely surround
ed by the Zapata men and reinforce
ments were also rushed to that place
on tram cars, 'which were pressed
Into service. The authorities in Mex
ica City expressed a fear of a general
attack and families living in Coyoacan
and Mixcoac began moving into the
city.
Capital Spared.
The feeling of intense suspense con
tilnled in the capital until the official
statement gave assurances that Mex
ico City proper would not be at
tacked.
Delegates representing Zapata pre
sented a land reform scheme at the
Aguils Calientes conference today and
the matter was debated at length.
It is reported that a plan calling for
a commission form of government will
be introduced and voted upon in the
near future. This plan, which would
do away with the vexing question of
the provisional presidency, calls for
a commission of seven members, rep
resentiug all factions.
Washington Is Hopeful.
Washington, Oct. 12.-Hopeful re
ports reached Washington today of
the progress of the first day's work
of tlhe military convention being held
at Aguas Calientes to determine the
personnel of the future government of
Mexico.
Not only are Generals Carranza and
`Villa represented, but General Zapata
has sent three delegates, whose cre
dentials have been accepted.

Russian Armored Cruiser
Pallada Torpedoed in
Ba'itic Sea
Petrograd, Oct. 12.-An official com
munication, issued today, announces
that on October 11, the Russian ar
mored cruiser Pallada was torpedoed
in the Baltic sea by a German sub
marine and sank with all of her crew.
The communication follows,:
"On iOctober 10, German submarines
were sighted in the Baltic sea. The
same day early in the morning the
submarines attacked the cruiser Ad
miral Makarov, which had stopped to
search a suspected bark flying the
commercial flag of the Netherlands.
"A submarine of the enemy launched
several torledoes, which luckily
missed the mark and caused no dam
age to the cruiser.
Second Attack.
"On nclohcr 11 at 2 o'clock in the
aflernorn tli submarines of the
enemy again , attacked our cruisers
Bayan and Pallada, which were pa
trolling the Baltic.
"Although t-he cruisers opened a
very strong fire, one of the sub
Imarines succeeded in launching tor
pedoes against the Pallada, whereupon
an explosion resulted and the cruiser
sank with all her crow."
The armored cruiser Pallada car
ried a complement of 560 men. She
measured 443 feet and had a displace
ment of 7,775 tons. HIer speed was 22
knots. With the Admiral. Marakov,
and the Bayan, she constituted a
group of cruisers known as the Bayan
class.
The Pallada carried two 8-inch
guns, eight 6-inch guns, twenty-two
12-pounders and four p-rounders, in
addition to torpedo tubes. She was
laid down in 1905.
OMINOUS SILENCE IS
KEPT BY THE ALLIES
THEIR FAILURE TO GIVE DETAILS OF TODAY'S
FIGHTING BODES WORST-PROBABLE THAT
RUSSIANS HAVE BEEN GIVEN BEATING
London, Oct. 12.-The finger of the
censor having twisted the tourniquet
on all sources of news from Belgium
just now, perhaps the most potential
ly important scene of the fighting in
the great war, the British people were
forced to content themselves today
with the official communication from
Paris and even a close analysis of
this showed no marked change in the
situation favoring either side.
From the east came tidings of a
decided reversal in form, the dis
patches both from Vienna and Petro
grad indicating that the Austrian
army at Przemysl, so often reported
surrounded, hopelessly outclassed and
on the verge of surrender, had turned
on the Russians with the aid of rein
forcements, and forced them to re
treat.
Przemysl Siege Off
The first news of this claim eman
ated in the morning from the Austrian
capital. It was followed later in the
day by what purported to be a Petro
grad administration that the Russians
had abandoned the siege of Przemysl
for strategical purposes, with the ob
ject of drawing up a new line against
the Austro-German army at other
points in Galicia.
Whatever may be the truth of the
situation, the Russians have been
claiming an unbroken series of vic
tories in their sweep through Galicia
and the coincidence of today's dis
patches, supplemented as they were by
more circumstantial accounts from
Vienna of a vigorous Austro-German
offensive, seemed to presage Im
portant news.
Armies Lost in Silence.
The Belgian and British troops who
retreated from Antwerp, with the ex
ing of the Americans was gratefully
acknowledged by the government. Two
groups will go to Austria and two
others t Breslau, when they will pro

Helena, Oct. 12.-(Special.)-There
has been sent out broado.lst to the
people of Mnlltana through the press,
under Ilelena date line of October 11,
a purported address delivered before
the Helena Commrnrcial club on the
evening of October 10, by .T. H. C.
Reynolds, chairman of a commission
appointed by the governor of Idaho
for the purpose of framing and sub
mitting to the next legislature of that
state a woriklen 's compenllisat ion law,
in which he is credited with severely
criticising and condemning the work
men's compensatlion la\. now before
the pe')le of Montana.
It is untdersil od that Mr. Reynolds
has been brought to this state by the
State of Montana Advancement ns

organization to defeat the proposed

At the meeting at which he made
his mnuch heralded address, there were
present but 1:, persons. all opponents
of workmen's compensations legisla

for the Northern Pacific Railroad
company, and one of the executive
committee of the Montana Advance
ment association, but there was no
stenographer there to report the re
marks made by Mr. Reynolds.
Following the so-called address of
the gentleman, it was suggested by
the president of the commercial club
that it was unfortunate tlhat a steno
grapher was not present to preserve
the remarks made by the gentleman
so that they might be sent broadcast

FROWNING CANNON TO OVERAWE BUTTE
SOJMEGUARDS WILL GO, ]80 WILL STAY
Butte, Oct. 12.-(Special.)-There
will be another radical reduction in
the military force, stationed here, next
Friday, when three-fifths of the na
tional guards composing the present
command under Major Donohue will
be returned to their homes in various
parts of the s:ate. It is planned to
send home 250 men and keep about 160
here.
The reduction in the force will be
accompanied by an equally definite
change in the manner in which the
military will maintain law and order
here after Friday. It is the intention
of Major Donohue to turn control of
civil affairs in Butte back to the civil
officers, the national guards to be
held as an auxiliary force to support
the sheriff and police in case of need.
The present five companies by this
arrangement will be cut to two com
panies, under the command of four
officers for each. The guard lines will
*be discontinued and the streets around
the courthouse and that building will
be reopened to the public on the old
footing. The purpose of this plan is
to put` upon the civil officers the en

This will mean practically the re

not yet announced that martial law

As a part of this plan the sheriff
will ask the county commissioners for

In treating of this feature of the

A carefull realding of thiis statoineint
discloses the fact that the only reason
advanced by Mr. Reynolds to sustain
