LONDON, Sept. 25. The Daily News correspondent in France telegraphs as follows: "Nightly the Germans rake the land scape with searchlights and shrapnel while the French and British, working in darkness and mystery, muffle even the headlights of the staff officers motor cars.

PREACHING DISTURBS SONG Rivals' Singing Interrupts Prayers Also, Complain Mission Workers "They sing when we want to pray and preach when we want to sing, and we can't get along on the same corner at all." So complained representatives of the Apostolic Faith, Mission to Police Ser geant Harms last night. For a long time the Apostolic Faith wagon has occupied the northeast cor ner of Stcond and Burnslde streets. The Pentecostal Faith had a regular stand a little farther , south .on Second. It was found, though, that the latter meeting obstructed , traffic at a point where East Siders take their cars, so a week ago the police asked them to meet somewhere else. Second and Burnslde is preferred ter ritory for mission work and the Pen tecostal Faith didn't want to move far. Sothe wagon "took up a position di rectly across Second street from the Apostolic Faith. "There isn't room for two meetings so-close -together. - They shouldn't butt in on our territory like that," said the Apostolic representatives. "It's strange two religious organiza tions can't come to some agreement about a little matter like that," re marked Sergeant Harms. "Well, they have no right to butt in like that." said the complainants. "You'd better see Chief Clark about It," advised the officer. PANAMA FACING TASK PROGRESSIVE LEGISLATION BE FORE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY. President Porrns Asks Immediate Sanction of 3,000,000 Loan tor Use cn Hindered Railway. PANAMA, Sept. 24. The National As sembly, which convened on September 1. has before It one of the most com prehensive programmes of progressive legislation in its history. As outlined in a message by President Porras, tn programme calls for the development jf Panama's resources to the fullest extent, cniefly in agriculture. The President asks for the immedi ate sanction for the loan recently ne gotiated In New York for J3,000.00u, with which to construct the railways in the provinces of Chiriqui and Los Santos. In the former province the work of construction is already under way, with assurances that the loan wili be forthcoming,- Wben, the two roads are completed they will open the large coffe-grow- ing country in Chiriqui and the mininx egion of Los Santos. It had been the ream of the Republic to, see the coun ty traversed by a through line across the Costa Rican and Colombian borders. but the construction was fraught with many engineering difficulties as well with opposition from the United States Government to any foreign built railway crossing the Panama Canal. President Porras insists that the as- embly take some action toward clear ing up land titles, which are so in secure that planters can scarcely borrow money to harvest crops. To gether with definite land titles, which would bo guaranteed by the govern ment, it is suggested that a charter be granted to the National City Bank r New York for an independent ranch in Panama, which would have he authority to make land mortgage oans. Another, recommendation by Presl- ent Porras is the building of forts with police garrisons on both coasts of the region now occupied largely by ndlans, hostile to civilization. With such protection he believed the de velopment of this country, which is rich in natural resources and which i been practically untouched since the days of .Spanish occupation, could be carried out. LARGER BILL OPPOSED WHITE HOUSE "WARNS AGAIN ST WATERWAY S INCREASE. Southern Members Disposed io Favor Acceptance of Senate Meaiinre Ap propriates S-O.000,000. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ngton, Sept. 24. No progress was made today with the river and harbor bill, the House committee failing to hold its scheduled meeting. The Dem ocratic members of that committee, however, were busy ascertaining sen timent in hope it..might prove feasible to reject the Senate's $20,000,000 bill and attempt to compremise on the $34 000,000 substitute first proposed by Senator Burton. Senator Ransdell and other Senate Democrats counseled against this plan and word also was sent from the White House that convinced the Democrats on the committee no such compromise should be attempted. Chairman Spark- man, of the river and harbor com mittee, and several of his Southern col leagues are disposed to urge the House to concur in the Senate bill and permit the War Department to apportion the $20,000,000. it being their idea that the working season is drawing to a close in the Northern. States and for that rea son a large share of the $20,000,000 may be allotted to the Southern waterways, where work can be pushed throughout the Winter. No definite conclusion was reached but it is expected the committee will meet tomorrow and determine on course of action. If the House should accept the Senate bill it would go immediately to the President for signature. 300 WOMEN TO GO FREE Americans Get British Out of Ger many and May Save Old Men. LONDON, Sept. 24.

LONDON, Sept. 25. The correspond ent of the Daily Telegraph in France says: "There is considerable elation in the allies' lines over the capture of five German aeroplanes by a French cav airy patrol. "Twenty cavalrymen, penetrating Into a thickly wooded country, entered a clearing where the rich prize awaited them. The aviators and several me chanics at the time were engaged in overhauling five Taube aeroplanes. "The patrol made a dash to capture the lot but met with fierce resistance and 12 cavalrymen were killed before the airmen were beaten. Their aero planes never will fly again." REPLY SHOT DENIED Germans Say British Cruisers Were Wholly Surprised. MOST OF MEN IN BUNKS British Admiralty Makes Statement Regretting Incident In Battle of Heligoland and Denying Firing on Drowning. LONDON, Sept. 24. "Not a single shot was fired by any of the three British cruisers sunk by the German submarines," says a Berlin official dis patch by Marconi wireless. "The ma jority of the British sailors were in their bunks when the attack was made. In recognition of their services the iron cross has been bestowed on each member of the crew of the submarine." The German admiralty today ad mitted the charge that a shell was thrown into a lifeboat containing Ger man survivors of the battle off Heligo land, expressing regret and explaining how the incident happened as follows: "Every effort was made to save life until a German cruiser of the Stettin class appeared on the scene and opened a heavy fire on the British destroyers and their small boats. The destroyers were forced to retire in order to avoid destruction. The Goshawk removed her men from her boat, leaving it to Ger man prisoners. Act of Bluejacket Regretted. "Nearly all of these were wounded. It in to be regretted that a bluejacket on the forecastle of the Goshawk, ex asperated at the Inhuman conduct of the German cruiser, threw a projectile, which could not possibly under the cir cumstances have exploded, into this small boat as it drifted past his ship." The charge was made by the German Minister at Copenhagen. The British war office says the act cannot be de fended, but that it was done under con- idarable provocation. Dealing with the rescue by the Bru sh submarine E-4 of the occupants of two boats which the destroyer Defend- r had been obliged to abandon under heavy fire, the Admiralty says: "After covering the retreat of the de- troyer the submarine returned to the oats and removed the British officers nd men and three Germans. The sub marine might well have taken another German officer and six unwounded men prisoners, but as the two boats contained 18 badly wounded Germans, he humanely left the German officer. nd the six men who were not hurt to care for them and navigate the boats." German Officer Fire at Own Men. Regarding the allegations that Ger mans fired at German sailors who were In the water, the Admiralty says there re many British naval officers and men who actually saw officers of the German cruisers Mainz and Koenigen Luise fire at their own men in the water. presumably because they thought the sailors were prematurely eserting their posts. "There .are many men in our hospi tals," the Admiralty continues, "whose wounds testify to the accuracy of the German officers' fire. Out of 350 men saved from the Mainz, about 150 were picked up swimming in the water. Many . of them had been wounded by revolver bullets. The remaining 2U0 could not be induced to jump over board. They were taken off by a de- troyer which laid alongside Just be fore the Mainz went down." DERBYS TO GO TO PARIS Roosevelt's Daughter to Be Nurse, Leaving Baby With Colonel. NEW YORK, Sept. 24.
