Witli Special Appeal for
Christmas.
CLOTHING BADLY NEEDED
Gen. Agullar. military governor designate
of Vera Crui, a promise that he would at
once Issue a proclamation giving definite
and satisfactory assurances on all pend
ing questions concerning the transfer of
authority at Vera Cruz.
These Include the guarantee of full pro
tection to all Mc.ilc.ins who have been In
tho .urvlce of the American authorities
at Vera Cruz, the recognition of nil tax
recelptK and customs collections by the
American Authorities and guarantees and
protection for all foreigners and their
pioperty.
Whllo these promises by Oen. Agullar
are regarded here as gratifying It Is not
thought likely that they will result In tho
Immediate turning over of Vera Cruz to
the Mexican authorities. It Is felt that
the t.'nlted States cannot accept the word
of the man whu is to he only the local
authority In lieu of assurances to the
same effect from the central Government,
rnrrniun'i Wont Awaited.
It Is probable therefore that when Gen.
Agullar has Issued his promised proclama
tion his lu-tloii will be brought to the ut
tuition nf the Carranza Government and
the Inquiry made If tho central Govern
ment approves of and promises to support
the action of Its subordinate. If Carranza
should mnki' a favorable response to such
an Inquiry it Is likely that the evacuation
of Vera Cruz might then bo speedily ar
ranged ptovldlng no untoward event had
meantime taken place to make the situa
tion appear more disturbing than ut pres
ent. The reports that four soldiers of the
United States forces at Nacu have been
wounded In fighting occurring at Naco,
Sonora, early to-day have not been con
firmed In advance to the War Depart
ment. Gen. Miss reported only that on
Thursday night two Mexican women had
been wuunded In Naco, Arizona, by Mex
ican bullets falling ou the American side
of the line.
Army officers on tho scene continue i
to report that all bullets firing on the
American side of the. lino are to their
best knowledge, and belief tho result of
accident and not deliberate Intention to
tiro at Americans.
Interference I'nllUelr.
As long as the army officers report
this to be the caso It Is unlikely that
thu President will authorize any action !
at Nnco. Tho army officers themeclves ,
have-orders to return any lire Into Amer-'
lean territory which they have reason to,
believe Is Intentional.
Governor Hunt telegraphed the War I
Department to-day asking that permlslon !
bo granted to bring over to the American
side of the line numbers of Mexican ,
wounded In Naco, Sonora. Ho said that
two American physicians were across the ;
line treatlnc the wounded and there was
grave danger of their being Injured un-1
less the wounded were transferred to:
American territory. I
After consultation with State Depart-
ment officials the War Department In-'
Btructed Gen. Bliss that no wounded were'
to be brought oer unlees il was Indicates
that Naco was about to fall Into the hands
of the attacking forces. In that event
they might bo transferred to the Ameri
can sldo with a view to being returned
Into Mexican torrltory at the earliest pos
sible moment. ;
Tho tftato Department was advised to
day that the peace conference at Aguas.
callentcs, which has declared itelf the
supremo ruling body of all Mexico, had
sent telegrams to Gens. Maytorena and '
Hill, tho opposing commanders at Naco, ,
dlreetlng them to cease hostilities.
The Constitutionalist agency received
tho following telegram to-Jay from Gen.
Hill at Naco:
"Shortly befoie midnight of Friday the
Maytorena forces made their final assault
atatust Naco, attacking our position from
several different points. The fighting was
fierce and lasted about six hours. From
our fortified position our machlno guns
and rifle flro punished the enemy severely.
Finally they retreated In great disorder
toward their encampment.
Villi tl la Killed by Mines.
"Several mines had been planted In the
zono that the enemy traversed In ap
proaching our trenches, and when these
were exploded two companies of Yaquls
who were charging In close order were all
but annihilated. Our troops aro still
engaged In bringing the wounded of the
enemy Into Naco.
"Our losses were slight, owing to the
fact that we were intrenced and that our
troops acted with splendid promptitude
and valor. The garrison at Agua Prleta
was ready to send us reenforcements In
caso wo needed them, but no such con
tlniency presented Itself."
Itclatlve to the strike rf the motormen
ami oonductors of the electric lines In
Mexico city the agency received the
following telegram.
"Dun to the fact that neither the strlk.
ers nor the rall.vriy company were will
Ing to make conceniona to each other and
accordingly tramway traftlc- was aban
doned and the public suffered severely fro'i.
being unable to ohuln transportation, the
Government took possession of the railroad
oitlcea and rolling stock Hiid for the next
fifteen days will operato the system.
"Durlns this time the Government will
Investigate tho Justice of the claims of
tho strikers. It has already requested
the directors of the company In London
to do all in Its power to assist the Gov
ernment In elfectlng un equitable adjust
ment of the present dlfflculty."
The American Hed Cross will distribute
soon self-denial mite boxes to receive
contributions for the relief of the vlctlmi
of battling Europe.
"Make a Christmas gift to a wounded,
sick, scantily clad or starving fellow
being through tha lied Cross self-denial
box !' the appeal reads. "The smallest
mite will bei worth while, but do glva
something. Donors may deslgnatn tho
countries In which their contributions are
to be used."
The Hed Cross has Issued the following:
"The American Hed Cross wishes to em
phasize that the following articles of
clothing, which muit be absolutely new,
are needed for the homeless nad destitute
women and children: woollen blouses,
warm shirts, boots and shoes, stockings,
cotton chemises untrlmmed, and knitted
mufflers or scarfs to cover head and shoul

knitted, woven or made of warm woollen
materials; large enough to fold so that

RED CROSS SEAWORTHY.
rttimors About Condition of llos
pltnl Ship Are Vigorously Ilrnlrd.
The office of tho Hed Cross at 130
East Twenty-second stre-et was greatly
disturbed yesterday over tho publication
In a morning newspaper of a despatch
which described the ship Hed Cross as
unsea worthy.
The Red Cross, which took nurses
and surgeons to Europe and Is due
here next Wednesday or Thursday
with a hundred refuge, was tho
steamship Hamburg of the Hamburg
American Line. The despatch said that
her engineer, Patrick Heardon, Jr., and
his HHslstants had signed a sworn state
ment that the Heel Crohn's bllgo was
choked with rubbish and her pumping
system useless, and that defects In the
engine room made It dangerous to put to
sea.
"Nothing of this sort has been heard
of before," said Miss Cameron at Hed
Cross headquarters, "Our lawyer, Mr. E.
Parker Kerlln. nays that Capt Armlstead
Hust, U. P. N.( retired, who Is In com
mand of the ship, thoroughly Inspected
her before she sailed,
"I have telephoned to our headquarters at
Washington and the officials there toll me
that they have received several letters
from Admiral Aaron Ward, who met the
Red Cross at Falmouth nnd has been
with her since, nnd that these letters
contain no hint of anything wrong with
the ship. Other naval officers besides
Capt. Hust Inspected tha veysel before
sailing, our officers In Washington tell
me, and they add that the ship was dry
docked and completely overhauled ns
recently as last July."

AMERICAN SURGEONS TO FRANCE
Flvr Volunteers, One n woman, Sail
on the Ilorhnmliean,
When ,the Kretwh liner Ilochambeau
flailed for Havre jestcrday afternoon she
Jook flvo American surgeons who had
-uiercd to go to France lo aid in the care
.f the French wounded when It -was an
nounced In Tim Bun that a fund of 11,000
had been contributed by the Duchess de
Talleyrand to defer the expenses of such
a party.
There were four men In the group and
one woman. Their names are Dr. M. J.
Sheuhan of Derby. Conn.; Dr. Mary M,
Crawford of 296 New York avenue,
Ilrooklyn: Dr. A. S. Cooke of 10 Webster
place, Ilrooklyn: Dr. Harton McC. Cook
Ingham of Red Hook, N. Y nnd Dr.
Thomas Nlsbct of the French Hospital
In this city. When they sailed they had
very little to say, but were confident that,
though they might not reach tho firing
line, they would have plonty of opportu
nlty to be of service to the distressed In
and about the hospitals of Paris.
Tho Rochambeau also took Paul Mon
net, the eon otitic French Consul at San
1- ranclsco. who Is going over to ftht. The
ships cargo Is made up partly of 25,000
kega of horseshoes. B00 bales of blankets
and seventy automobile trucks for the

USE AMERICAN SURGEON'S WAY.
French Kind Dr. Murphy's Method
Ilrst With Abdominal Wonnds.
Paris, Oct. 17. Dr. Theodore Turner,
the noted French surgeon, who Is attached
to the General Stan headquarters, after
vMtlng the field hospitals on the eastern
frontier says thiit clean chest wounds
heal with great rapidity, but that frac
tures of the tipper thigh are extremely
dangerous and abdominal wounds aro
usually fatal.
Dr. .1. U. Murphy's Amerloin method
of treating abdominal wounds, he says. Is
giving the best results. Dr. Tutller says
further that wounds resembling those
made by dumdum bullets often are made
by the bullet's Jacket tipping on the
bone. Dumdum bullets must actually
be found In the enemy's cartridge belt or
rlfie magazines before there om be any
certainty that they are being used.
Dr. Tuffler prefers antiseptic to aseptic
treatment He says that many wounds
are complicated with the Infection of
tetanus and g'ingrene, all due prin
cipally to the presence of bits of cloth
ing nnd ether foreign substances In the
wounds.
