have received reinforcements
and they have begun a new of

The Bulgarian operations in
central Macedonia , , according
to Rome accounts, presents a
most powerful menace to the
armies of the Serbians and
their allies, which are operat
ing from Tetovo, through Per

nounce that Tetovo is in the
hands of the Bulgars and Serbs,
hut the preponderance of evi
dence points to Bulgarian oc
cupation. The Bulgarians are making
desperate efforts to force their
ay through the Ktachanik
pass in the direction of Pris
tina. They are also attempting
to advance from Tetovo to
Perlepe and Monastir, and by
forcing the Babuna pass to
reach Perlepe from the other
side. These operations are
said to again place Monastir in
danger.

Majority Leader in House
Thinks He Will Fail In His
Fight Against "National
Defense" Measure.
BELIEVES PRESIDENT'S
POWER WILL PREVAL
N. C. Congressman Declares
Four-Fifths of Democrats
In House Are Not In
Favor of Radical Move.
Washington, Nov. 18. Representa
tive Claude Kitchin, majority leader In
the house, who Is opposed to the ad
ministration national defense pro.
gram, declared to a constituent his be
lief that the measure will succeed by
an "overwhelming majority' In a
letter Just written by Congressman
Kitchin to Charles I Coon of Wilson,
N. C, the new majority leader says:
"I shall oppose the big army and
navy program with all the earnestness
and power I possess. However, my
fear Is that the president will push it
through by an overwhelming major'
ity. :
. "In the first place practically all
the republicans will vote tor it; In
the second place, although I know
that four-fifths of the democrats are
opposed to it, many I fear a large
majority will fling away their .con
victions on the question to please the
president and will do as I have seen
them do on two or three occasions be
fore." : '; !
Representative Kitchin , declared
that at "'one hound, moneuyear the
increase in naval appropriations
would be more than the total
increases for the last ; fourteen
years; more than the Increases
by the German government for the
whole 15 years preceding the present
war; and more than the combined in
creases of all the nations of the world
in any year of Its history.
The North Carollan congressman
asserted that this sudden radical and
stupendous move for war preparation
is going to shock the civilized world,
and that whatever may be the out
come of the present war he fears it
will aiarm the world again into an
armed camp,
Itoosevelt'a Views.
Paris, Nov. 16. "My views are In
entire agreement with yours as to
the necessity for a new diplomacy as
a result of this terrible war," says
Theodore Roosevelt in a letter to
Stephen Plchon, former foreign min
ister, aa published In the Petit Jour
nal, "but this diplomacy must be
based on a new system-of Internation
al governmental action, the terms of
which must be built on greater solid
arity in international operation, at
least so far as certain kinds of na
tional and International misdeeds are
concerned." .
Colonel Roosevelt is quoted fur
ther aa aaylng that a great nation
worthy of the name must 'prepare ao
as to be able to employ Its power as
an Instrument for supreme justice
and that he Is attempting to induce
the United States to put its action on
Intelligent and moral principles.
AMERICAN WARSHIP AT
PROORESO HAS NOTHING
TO DO WITH ZELANDIA
Washington, Nov. 16. The officials
today disclaimed that there waa any
connection between the arrival of the
United States battleship Kentucky at
Prngreso, Mexico and the forcible
searching of the American steamer
Zelandla at that port by an armed
party from a British cruiser.
An Investigation to determine
whether the Zelandla waa within the
three-mile limit when searched la still
under way. British officials contend
that aha waa not.

Nearly One-Half of Convicts in
White Camp Sawed Their
Way to Liberty Last
Night at 11 O'clock.
ESCAPED FROM
AN IRON CAGE
Officers From All Sections of
the County Are Dispatched
to the Scenes List of
Men Given.
Sawing their way to liberty about
11 o'clock last night 15 long term men
at the white convict camp located on
Sandy Mush, near Odessa, made their
escape from the camp and at an early
hour this afternoon had not been cap
tured, although officers from all sec
tions of the county have been dis
patched toUhe scene.
Details of the wholesale de'ivery
were slow in coming In, owing to the
iact tnat the telephone wires between
the camp and Leicester, the nearest
point, wre cut by the convicts soon
after their escape. Operator Meadows
of the Leicester telephone exchange
was the first man to notify the sher
iffs office of the escape of the men,
and about 30 minutes later Captain J.
H. Gragg, in charge of the camp, tele,
phoned to Sheriff E. M. Mitchell of
the escape of the men. Chairman of
the county commissioners, W. E.
Johnson, Deputy Sheriffs Luther Revis
and Fletcher Austin of 'AshevlUe at
once left for the camp and they were
Joined by Deputy Sheriffs E. I. Worley
of Sandy Mush and Dave Cole of Lei
cester and Constable Rogers of Lei
cester, the latter taking his blood
hounds to the scene.'
According to the records in th
sheriffs office there ' were about 40
men confined at the' white camri. lo
cated In the Sandy Mush section, and
of this number 15 sawed through the
iron cell In which they are confined
at night and succeeded tn making good
meir escape. Just about daylight six
or tne men were seen coming over the
mountain near the home of Frank
Wells, who lives near the camp, but so
far these are the only ones that have
Deen signted since the escape,

Sheriff Mitchell haa had telegrams
sent to all points in western North
Carolina, northern South Carolina,
and east Tennessee, in which descrlp.
Hons of the men are given and It Is
hoped In this way to be able to ap-
prvnena some ir not an of the men.
The camp Is In charts of Contain

Tile Care.
After work each day the convicts
are placed In an Iron cell, about 12
feet wide and 20 feet long, which la
on wheels and can be taken from
place to place. Thla cage haa one
door, where the men enter and
email window In the other end. Just
outside this window, which Is barred.
a guard haa a shack built against the
cage where he la to remain on duty
eacn nignt. The guard can look Into
the cage from hla station on the out
side. The trusties have a frame house
nearby where they aleep, with no
g varus over them.
According to the Information re
ceived here the men who escaped
must have hatched out a well planned
plot, for the whole scheme seemed to
nave Been engineered by one man. It
is believed that a large. aharD saw
was slipped to the men by some meana
and that last night, being the first cold
night of the fall, the guards perhaps
were a mue care ies aeout tne watch
and tha men used the saw to good
advantage, doing their work in a
quick, thorough manner. Just why
the other It men at the camp did not
escape could not be learned today, as
the efflcera who were at the camp are
all on tha trail of the escaped convict
and could not be reached over the
telephone.
At 1 o'clock this afternoon a mes
sage waa received by Sheriff E. M.
Mitchell from Marshall, stating two
of the escaped convicts, otto Munsey
and J. Green had been captured
there at an early hour thla mornn.g
and would be held for the local coun
ts eflnere.
Ringleader In Allep" Ger-
man Conspiracy jY testify
' Before th V dfjury.
New T: ' ' yov. 16. Robert Fay,
chief flgV y-n the alleged ' German
conspiracy" to plant bombs on steam
ers carrying munitions to the allies
and for which six men have been In
dicted, waa taken before Federal At
torney H. Snowden Marshall yester
day. . . . ' ;'
Fay talked to Chief -William J.
Flynn of the secret service and is re
ported to have materially amplified
his alleged confession made when he
was arrested.
It was stated that Fay had offered
to turn .state's evidence. It Is believed
that If "Fay becomes a government
witness he will be granted, Immunity
and will be taken before a federal
grand Jury. Government Attorney
Marshall plans to have new Indict
ments filed against Fay and the
other five men as the result of the
announcement by attorneys for the
defendants that the validity of the
present indictments would be contest
ed. '
Fay's talk with Mr. Knox was upon
his own solicitation and without
promise of leniency. The statement
carried) the prisoner back to Ger
many, covered the high limits of his
service in the German army, told in
detail of his alleged mission to Amer
ica and recited his activities here.
District Attorney Marshall said in
some respects the statement was ver
ified by Information which the gov
ernment had collected,
'There is no' doubt," Mr. Marshall
said, "that his name is Fay and that
he served in the German army. As to
the rest we don't know. His statement
differs somewhat from his previous
story, but admits his guilt of the
charges against him."
What Fay told Mr. Knox : leads
back to a source to which already
has bean traced another case under
investigation, according to Roger B.
Wood, an assistant in Mr. Marshall's
office. Mr. Wood ' has 'prepared most
of-thi"' cases -fir the passport frauds,
and also prepared the government's
case against Karl Buenz and other
officials of the Hamburg-American
line, indicted on a charge of con
spiracy and to be placed on trial this
week. .

WILL RAISE MONEY BY
POPULAR SUBSCRIPTION
Governor Has Not Decided on
Exact Form of Monument
to Replace That Destroy
ed hy Vandals.
(By W. T. Bost)
Raleigh, Nov. 16. Governor Craig
has begun the work of rebuilding the
Elisha Mitchell monument destroyed
more than a year atio by unknown
vandals and he will soon have ready
for announcement the plans by which
he hopes to put a worthier memorial
to the great scientist.
Governor Craig worked upon ,tl?e
rough draft of his apppal to the peo
ple of the state. He will not make
their response to his -work the test of
their loyalty to him he'll Just work
until he gets the funds tlm will be
needed. He expects to raise this
money by popular subscription and
the pamphlet which he Is preparing
will be widely circulated among the
patriotic people of the rtato It is the
Introduction to this brochure that ho
is now writing.
Governor Craig has not decided the
exact form in which tlm monument
Is to be created. He leur.s heavily to
a pyramidal shaft of the granite from
the mountain which bears the name
of the man who lost his life In sclen.
tlflc quest. This would not contem
plate a .figure of the man; ' "Other sug
gestions are being entertained, how
ever. The governor Is Interested Just
now In advancing the cause before the
people and details of the art may wait
a time.
The pamphlet will have some of the
best things written by Znhulon H.
Vance, Dr. George T. Winston and
others, and some of the best things
that the governor's seldom pen has
turned out. The restoration of tho
Mitchell monument, a replacement
with an Infinitely better one was one
of the determinations of Governor
Craig as soon as he heard of the de
struction of the old.
The governor has offered a reward
of $100 for the unknown slayer of
Rev, Floyd Sweatt, the Hamlet minis
ter whose murder November 8 has
caused such widespread demand for
the detection and punishment of his
murderer. No suggestion of suspects
has been made and the officers are
desperately in the dark. The minis
ter's attacks upon the Illegal whiskey
traffic are believed to have caused the
attack.

who has been living in Raleigh, has

Concerning Incident, v.
ITALY HAS DIFFICULTY
GETTING INFORMATION
Austrian Statement Declares
Ancona Attempted to Escape
After Warning Shot
Across Her Bow.
Washington, Nov. 16. The state
department officials today were still
without official information which Is
sought to determine the attitude of
the United States' toward the sinking
of the Italian liner Ancona by sub
marine. Efforts to get information
from consuls and embassies have been
extended.
ne department nas received re
ports and rumors which have been
obtained by consuls but they will not
be given out.
Washington, Nov. 16. Ambassador
Page at Rome has cabled the state de
partment that his conference with the
Italian foreign office failed to develop
any details of facts concerning the
sinking of the Italian liner Ancona by
a submarine.
The Italian government, according
to Page, Is having considerable diffi
culty in establishing just what occur
red. He stated that an investigation
Is underway however and that he will
report as soon as the results are
known. . s
Secretary Lansing is waiting , to
learn whether it was a German or
Austrian submarine that sunk the
Ancona' and therefore has not " in
structed Ambassador Gerard and Am
bassador Penfleld to call on the Berlin
and Vienna governments respectively
to ask for information. ; .
Washington, Nov. 18. The best of
ficial narative of the rescue of sur
vivors of the torpedoed Italian liner
Ancona which has yet reached the
state department has arrived in
cablegrams from Ambassador Sharp
at Paris, who transmitted telegrams to
the French minister of marine from
the prefect at Blzerta, Tunis. They
are as follows:
"November 7. One hundred ship
wrecked persons of which six were
wounded, from the Ancona, torpe
doed Sunday, have been brought to
Blzerta.
"November 8. Two torpedo boats
this evening brought 21 survivors and
four bodies to Blzerta. The survivors
163 out 480 are being cared for at
the Slti Abdullah hospital. The sub
marine which sunk the Ancona, ac
cording to concordant information, re
ceived by me, was 80 to 100 meters
long and was armed with two fairly
large guns forward and two smaller
ones aft,
"November 9. A boat from the An
cona arrived this morning at Cape
Bon with 28 persons, bringing the to
tal survivors to 187, of which 161 are
being cared for at the Sitl Abdullah
hospital. One Is an American woman,
one a Russian; 16 are Greeks and the
balance are Italian.
"November 9. Two Anoona boats
have Just arrived one at Zembra
with 28 survivors and one at Tunis
with 87 others. The total number of
survivors now numbers 232."
This Is all the official Information
In the hands of the French govern
ment Other messages which reach
ed the state department today throw
no light on the Incident and for the
most part duplicate information al
ready received.
Washington, Nov. 16. Secretary
Lansing personally received today
from Macchl dl Cellere, the Italian
ambassador, a communication ad
dressed by Italy to all neutral na
tions, denouncing as "an unparalleled
atrocity" the sinking of the Italian
liner Anoona with scores of neutrals
and other non-combatants aboard.
The statement recltea the clrcum

"without even blank shot" of warn.

it was announced that the tabernacle

speaking from the text, "Ye must
be born again," Rev. Dr. J. Wllbun
Chapman declared that moral refor
mation Is not a sufficient; that there
must be a complete spiritual surren
der, a new birth of the soul. The
minister said that this requirement
applies not only to the ppen sinner
but to many who "call upon the name
of the tord" but who have never yet
learned the meaning of complete cqn-'
secration. Hundreds came forward
In token of their desire to be regen- .

It Is expected that many of the visi

Thla Afternoon
The subject for this afternoon's
sermon is "The unconscious Loss of
Power." The sermon follows:
Text: "An he wist not that the Lord
departed from him." Judges 16:20. i, '
This is a striking sentence and is a
part of an extremely sad story. We
have before us the picture of a man
who has been shorn of his power, and
'did not realize it until the crls was)
upon him, and this is true of people
generally. We seem to be able to get
along well enough when the aun la
shining, and our friends are many,
and the world la applauding us, but
when these are gone and we are face
to face with a great crisis, we realize
that we have missed, something out
of our lives, and that what we might
have had to give ua victory we have
sold for less than a mesa of pottage.
Samson stands before us aa the al
most perfect emblem of strength and
yet how frail human strength is. On
the one side we behold him a giant in
statue, victorious in all that he un
dertook to do. On the other aide, we
see him with the aame giant body, but
the picture is pathetic In the extreme '
because he has lost that which had,
made him truly great.
How easily It la to be overthrown by
the devil, and how carefully we ought
to guard ourselves less unexpected
tefnpatatlons miserably defeat us.
A Greet Man
It seemed aa If God could do no
mora for him. He had endowed him
with everything that counts for pres
ent victory and for auccesa In future
conquests.
1. He had the best of parents. Ma-
nosh was his father, and ha waa poa
sensed of great strength of character.
His mother was a woman of rare beau
ty and must have trained her hoy well
but It is not enough to be well borik,
for we may have the best ancestors
and aln against them.

strength. He aeemed to be all body.
