MISSISSIPPI COAST IS SWEPT Jiiloxi I'Joodetl and Xcw Orleans Suburbs Submerged. MOBILE, Ala., Sept. 29. New Or leans and the Gulf Coast of Mississippi tonight were swept by a tropical hurri cane that demoralized comruunicatron and led to fears of heavy loss of life and property. The Mississippi levees below New Orleans have broken, houses have been washed away and at least two deaths hav: been caused in that section, according to a wireless mes sage late tonight from the Morgan liner Creole, upward bound for New Oi'leans. ' The business section of Biloxl, Miss., is under six feet of water, and train service has been abandoned because of washouts throughout a large .section about Bay St. Louis.

Few details of the damage, however, either in that sec tion or at Biloxi. were obtainable. Mobile escaped the worst of the storm, but the wind here was sufficient to drive tho water over the wharves at the river front and unroofed several houses. There was no serious dam age. The barometer beramo stationary here at 8 o'clock tonight and it was believed the worst of the stoVm had passed. The reading at that hour was 2?. 32 and the wind velocity 52 miles.

Chancellor Defends Government Pollcy nnd Bonar Law Says Duties Will Not Affect Normal Times. LONDON. Sept. 29. After discussion in the House of Commons on the im port duties levied by the new budget, in which the free traders charged the Liberal members of the government with going back' on the principles of their party and with having been in fluenced by the tariff reformers in the Cabinet, Andrew Bonar Law, Secretary for the Colonies, said that he and his Unionist colleagues had not known the intentions of the Chancellor of the Ex chequer -until Mr. McKenna informed the Cabinet of the details of the budget, and that the taxes Imposed in abnor mal times would not have any effect on the tariff controversy when the war . 1 1 : ej . Josiah Wedgwood, Liberal and single taxer. protested against the duty on motorcars. He declared that nothing so helped to economize labor as the ""importation of cars from America. Chancellor McKenna replied that the ? times were abnormal and it was nec i essary to lessen unnecessary imports in order to secure a readjustment of p the unfavorable exchange. However, in . deference to the views of experts, he f proposed to exempt lorries and vans S used exclusively for trade purposes, "Z their parts and all motor tires from the new duties.- I WOMEN URGE REPRIEVE it-ato Department Asked to Save ?

BAHK TELLER ARRESTED KLMER HOLMAN, AT WALLA WALLA, ACCUSED OF 910,000 LOSS. Official's Arrest Follows Resignation and Assignment of Land Pur chased In Five-Year Period, WALLA WALLA, -Wash., Sept. 29. (Special.) Elmer Holman, teller and head bookkeeper at the Farmers' Sav ings Bank, was arrested late tonight charged with larceny by embezzlement of between J18.00Q and $19,000. His bonds were fixed at $10,000. He is spending the night in Jail. He had resigned, following the dis covery of what is said to be a short age of nearly $19,000 in his books. The alleged peculations are said to cover a period of more than five years. A formal written statement was made late today by W. P. Winans, presi dent of the bank. He said: "Unfor tunately, Elmer Holman has taken ad vantage of the confidence placed in him and has embezzled a few thou sand dollars of the bank's funds. He has turned over to the Institution the property he has acquired and the di rectors have provided for the balance of the shortage." Examination of Holman's books by a bank examiner is said to have re vealed the loss, this being followed by Holman's confession. Holman Is 29 and married and had worked up to his present position after entering the bank's service as a messenger. About five years ago he began tak ing money and he covered the losses by Juggling tie books, it is alleged. He bought considerable real estate, and this has been turned over to the bank, the property being valued at more than half the amount of the loss. .Holman is prominent in lodge circles. IDAHO PROMISES HELP STATE WILL CO-OPERATE WITH ENTIRE PACIFIC COAST. Rail Line From Boise to San Francisco Bar So Trip Can Be Made In Iny Meld Necessity. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29. Co operation between Idaho and California and also the other states of the North west ior ine advancement of their nat ural adavntages was the keynote today of the Idaho day celebration at the ex position. Governor- Alexander. of Idaho, said the mission of the delega tion from his state in coming to at tend the exercises was to give assur ances that the people of Idaho were behind any and all movements to make San Francisco one of the great cities of the world. Idaho, Governor Alexander said, was as proud of the completion of the Pan ama Canal and the success of the ex position as California, itself. James II. Hawley, of Boise. ex-Governor of the state, urged closer com munication between this state and Cal ifornia and particularly San Francisco. "There should bo a rail line from Boise to San Francisco Bay," said Mr. Hawley. "and our people are looking forward to the time when it will be possible to board a train there and arrive in San Francisco the next day." Included in the exercises was the planting of an Idaho fir tree on the Idaho building lawn. LID ,S PUT ON LOTTERY Ius-t Drawing ot M. and I Pub llslied In San I-Yanclseo. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29. Lotteries which have flourished in San Fran cisco for years probably the only large city in the United States where they have been permitted to operate openly in receDt years published their last drawing today, according to the police. An amicable,-.settlement was arranged between the police and lottery officials whereby there would be no interfer ence with payment of today's drawing, it was said.

ALLIES STILL DRIVE ON (Continued From First Page.) other fruitless British attack, led to the recapturing of part of the territory we abandoned north of Loos. "A fierce British atack from the re gion of Loos broke down with heavy losses. "Repeated and stubborn French at tacks in the region, of Souchez and Neuville were partly repulsed by strong counter attacks. "In Champagne also all attempts of the enemy to break through our lines were unsuccessful. The only result has been that the enemy has not been driven out of our trenches again north west of Souchez. extending over a dis tance of 100 meters. "The heavy losses which the enemy incurred during often-repeated storm attacks against the hills at Massiges were in vain. The hills have been main tained by our troops without a break. Attempts of the French to recapture trenches which they lost at La Fllle Morte failed. The number of prisoners has been increased." . TURKS ARE BADLY BEATEN ON TIGRIS Important Victory by British in Mesopotamia Report ed to Commons. ENEMY'S LOSSES HEAVY Ottoman Eorces In Full lletreat Toward Bagdad Positions Ten aciously Defended Are Carried by Storm. LONDON, Sept. 29. The British have won an important success in Mesopo tamia. The Turks are in full retreat toward Bagdad. The British are pur suing the retreating Turks. Announcement to this effect was made In the House of Commons today by Austen Chamberlain, Secretary of State for India. Mr. Chamberlain read telegrams from General Nixon, com manding . the forces in Mesopotamia, relating the outcome of the recent fighting. General Nixon reported that one po sition carried by the British consti tuted a long line of defenses astride the Tigris Itiver. Turkish Position Carried. At a point seven miles east of Kut, two brigades crossed the river from the right bank and by a forced march reached the left wing of the Turkish position, carrying it by assault. By nightfall, the whole position had been carried. The Turkish losses in dead are de scribed as severe. The Turks clung to their trenches with the greatest tenac ity and they were filled with corpses when the British finally carried them. Several guns, many rifles, several hundred prisoners and a quantity of ammunition were captured. General Nixon gives .the British casualties a3 "under 500." "The enemy's position in advance of Kut-El-Amara was captured. with many prisoners and guns," says a sec ond dispatch. "The enemy is in full flight toward Bagdad. Our forces are pushing in pursuit. Details will fol low." JVew Expedition Seems Probable. Official records of the campaign in Mesopotamia have been bare of de tails'. The last official statements con veyed the inference that the fighting on this front was comparatively unim portant. It is not improbable that a new expeditionary force has been sent in by the British. Reports during the last few weeks have shown that large bodies of Italian and British troops were being forwarded toward Turkey, but it was generally assumed that these forces would be employed on the Gallipoli front or in Syria. For some time the British and Turks have been fighting near the Junction of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, which is about 250 miles from Bagdad.

LINCOLN, Neb.. Sept. 29 Nebraska's initial move for statewide prohibition was made today when a convention composed of representatives from all parts of the state elected Charles W. Bryan, brother of William J. Bryan, permanent chairman of the convention. One-fourth of those present were women.

Sept. 29. The following letter from Luther Burbank is inter estingr light on the history of the loganDerry ana tho phenomenal berry, the former of which would seem to have gathered in all the honors due itself as well as its running mate: "Anno Shannon Monroe, Ban Fran Cisco. Dear Madam: The loganberry was a seedling- which originated on Judge Logan's place at Santa Cruz. The cross Is not Known, as the bees ter formed the work, but Judgre Logan supposed t was a cross between the Red Antwerp English raspberry and a wua DiacKUerry which was growing over ine fence on his place, I saw it some 20 years ago on his place. It is a rather soft and quite acid berry, but, of course, a valuable new variety The fact that this cross had been made by tho insects led me to believe that I could make a better one. so I crossed ine uutnoert and Aughinbaugh. an Im proved variety of our wild blackberry, and the result was the phenomenal. This was first named the Humboldt, but changed to phenomenal by John Lewis Child, who first introduced it from my place. "The phenomenal was Introduced in the East and did not thrive there, and it was several years before it was known much on the Western Coast.

"I have sent thousands of the plants to Oregon and Washington during the last 15 years and others have also sent them by the thousand. The difference between the two is this: The phenom enal fruit is considerably larger, firmer, not nearly so acid, of a much better flavor, lighter colored and the plants are much more productive.
