CARRANZA IS DEFIANT.
Washington, Aug. 11. -r Changes in'
the regulations of the steamboat in
spection service and the appointment of
a special committee to recommend steps
for safeguarding passenger traffic on
the Great Lakes, were ordered today by
Secretary Redfield, as a result of his
investigation of the Eastland disaster
at Chicago.
New regulations will be based on
the report of the board of inquiry
which aided in the inquiry and recom
mended the following:
"Increase in passenger-carrying per
mits must be issued by inspectors only
after personal inspection of the vessel,
of which inspection a written record
shall be made.
"All inspectors are ordered to require
owners of vessels whose stability they
have any reason to question, to make
inclining tests on such vessels, under
supervision of expert naval architects
provided by the Department of Com
merce." The Department today issued this an
nouncement: "Instructions have been given by
Secretary Redfleld to the supervising
Inspector general of the steamboat in
spection service to incorporate the sug
gested rules as promptly as possible
in the rules and regulations of the
service.
"Instructions have also been given
for the formation of a committee of su
pervising inspectors, selected from the
Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts, joint
ly with those in charge of the two dis
tricts on the Great Lakes, to study con
ditions in the service on the Great
Lakes with special reference to the
safeguarding of passenger traffic and
. to take auch steps in connection vith
the same as may seem to be necessary,
suggesting such chajiges in the rules
and regulations as may in their Judg
ment be required."
BRITISH COLONISTS
ASSUME OFFENSIVE
AND GAIN ON TURKS
Says Mexican Displeased With Any
Attempt to Frustrate His Success.
Washington, Aug.. 11. General Car
ranza, through his agents here, noti
fied Secretary Lansing today that "the
Mexican people view with displeasure"
any attempt tending to frustrate the
success of Carranza's armed forces.
Carranza's message referred to the
Pan-American Conference and was tak
en as signifying he would hot agree
with its action toward Mexican affairs.
Carranza's communication was re
garded as little less than a defiance of
the United States in its efforts to bring
all the Mexican factions into a' peace
conference.
"Mr. Carranza and the persons who
co-operate with him," says the com
munication, "are of the profound con
viction that if the American govern
ment would know the true situation in
Mexico it would understand that the
only possible, just and acceptable solu
tion would be to leave the revolution
to follow its natural course until the
complete victory of the party repre
senting greater - necessities and popularity."

today that the area held by the Allies
in the Anzac -zone on Gallipoli penin
sula has been nearly treSled. Five out
of six guns in the Turkish Asiatic bat
teries are reported to have been put
out of action by the French battleship
St. Louis. . 1
An official statement given out to
night says:
"The latest report from Sir Ian Ham
ilton states that severe fighting con
tinued yesterday in the Gallipoli pe
ninsula, mainly in the Anzac zone, and
in that to the north. The positions oc-
cupied were slightly varied in places,
but the general result is that the area
held at Anzac has been nearly trebled,
owing chiefly to the gallantry and dash
of the Australian and New Zealand
army corps.
"While to the north no further prog
ress has yet been made, the troops
have inflicted heavy losses on the ene
my and the French battleship St. Louis
is reported to have put out of aceion
five out of six guns in the Asiatic batteries."
The concert given by the class of
14 boys and girls from the Odd Fel
lows' Orphanage at Goldsboro, at the

preciation with frequent applause.
The class arrived yesterday from

large and appreciative audience with
their concert.
Asking That Conditions Growing Out
of Interference be Remedied.
Chicago, Aug. 11. The Illinois Man
ufacturers' Association today address
ed a letter to Secretary Lansing ask
ing that conditions growing out of In
tel ference with American trade in non
contraband articles be remedied.
The association commends the policy
of President Wilson regarding inter
ference with trade by belligerent na
tions. It was declared the communi
cation was - the start of a 'movement
that will be joined in by commercial
organizations all over the country. The
letter follows:
"The interference by certain of the
belligerent nations in the over-seas
non-contraband commerce of the Unit
ed States, in violation of the rules of
international law, is seriously disturb
ing and. injuring American business
and working hardship against, both our
manufacturers and their wage earners.
"The detention of vessels sailing to
and from neutral countries is unneces
sarily long, and unless expedited will
render impossible business relations
with those countries for the reason
that freight rates are forced to pro
hibitive figures.
"The Illinois Manufacturers' Asso
ciation is in hearty accord with the
position of the President that it is not
admissible that any belligerent should
assume power at will to modify any
doctrine of international law relative
to overseas commerce."
It was announced that the letter
represents the views of the manufac
turers of the Middle West.

Mr. George F. Catlett, director of the

during the month:
"I have made 140 inspections of plac

have graded 55 of these places, princi

score card system and set of boks was
not completed in time to score all of
the food shops this month. In addition
to the above inspections I have made a
number of miscellaneous inspections at
the request of food dealers, including
a car load of melons, premises around
food shops, etc.
"I am glad to be able to report im
provement in many of the food estab
lishments. Several of the smaller ice
cream factories have put in concrete
floors. Several others have removed
toilets from the rooms in which their
cream is made and in many of the
shops, under regular inspection, a
marked improvement in cleanliness
and sanitation is to be seen.
"The detailed list of inspections for
the month is as follows:
Bakeries, 3; meat markets, 45; soda
fountains, 25; ice cream and confec
tionery plants, 34; candy factories, 0;
restaurants, 13; hotels, 1; groceries, 5;
fish and oyster stalls, 10; cold storage
plants 0; commission houses, 4.
"With this report I am submitting
the scores of the food establishments
grades this month. Under our close
system of grading these scores speak
very well for the general condition in
most of the . Wilmington stores. Also
many of thp merchants have expressed
willingness to. co-operate with the
department towards bringing about
conditions as near perfect as possible,
and we may look with confidence for
a gratifying improvement."
Mr. E. Piner, chief of the sanitary
police, reported that 14,604 inspections
were made during the month, 2,700
