WASHINGTON, June 22. Commander
Eavanaugh, of ths gunboat Annapolis,
In a report reaching: the Navy Depart
ment today on the incident at Mazatlan
Sunday, when a boat from the Annapo
lis was fired on and two American of
ficers seized, said " his men were at
tacked without provocation by Mexican
oustoms officers and soldiers.
The report says:
"Governor issued manifesto 'that of
ficers were not to land, and guard was
placed on dock. I sent ashore Ensign
Kessing to parley with the Mexicans
and to ask them to send for the Acting;
American Consul or for one of the Mex
ican officials so as to arrange for
American citizens coming- off to the
ship. I sent Paymaster M d wat with
the party as interpreter.
"I ordered boat officer to keep clear
of landing so that his boat could not
be rushed, and I forbade him entering
the town, the plan being that the boat
was to lie well clear of the dock and
the officers therein to confer with
party on shore.
"After brief parley Mexicans said It
would be all right for them to land.
They did so and were immediately
seized. Kessing ordered boat to return
to Bhlp.
"When boat about 100 feet clear from
dock, Mexican custom official in uni
form fired his revolver at the boat.
Five or six shots were immediately
fired at the boat by Mexican spldiers.
Boatswain's Mate Laughter, who was
senior in the boat, then ordered the
fire returned. Mexicans fled from the
dock, and taking cover behind wall and
In dock warehouse opened lively fire
en boat, Mexicans firing in all about
150 shots. Laughter was hit twice.
In my opinion, boat's crew acted prop
erly in returning fire.
"When crew began to fire, .the Mex
icans fled from the dock In a panic and
this gave the boat a chance to get
away. American Consul came to the
ship and reported that General Mezta
claimed our people began the fight and
that one man had been killed and two
or three wounded. I gave him our ver
sion of the affair and assured the Gen
eral that full satisfaction would be
given if the blame was ours. I re
quested also that he release the two
officers and send them and any Ameri
can citizens who wished to come off
to the Annapolis. The General allowed
Kessing and Mowat to return on board
at 4 P. M. Sunday. General Mezta sent
a polite reply to my. letter, saying the
men who fired on the boat were Jap
anese, now in the hospital wounded.
"Mazatlan reported wild with excite
ment and practically every Mexican
armed."
GUARD SHOOTS SOLDIER
ONE KILLED AND FIVE WOUNDED
AT NACO, ARIZ.
American-Mexican Exonerated for Mis
taking: Americans for llandltm,
W hen Guarding; Water Works.
NACO. Ariz.. June 23. William
Humphrey, an American-Mexican em
ployed as a watchman at the Naco
water plant, was exonerated of crim
inal biaxne lata today by a coroner's
Jury for killing early today one United
States soldier and wounding five
others, one seriously. Humphrey tes
tified that he could not see the uni
forms of the infantrymen and had be
lieved them to be bandits.
Tht soldiers were fired on by the
watchman as they approached the
water plant at 2 A. M.. preparatory
to changing the guard there. Before
they could make known their Identity
the following casualties had resulted:
Walter E. Powell, private, was shot
through the chest and abdomen. He
lived one hour.
John G. Rogoya. private, shot
through the neck, right shoulder, right
arm and right thigh; condition serious.
R. N. Martin, first sergeant, flesh
wounds on back and shoulder, not
serious.
Harry Plttson, sergeant, severely
wounded in muscles of right shoulder.
V lctor Lundmark. corporal, wounded
In right elbow.
William R. Stevenson, private, flesh
wound on right hip.
All of the soldiers were members of
Company F. Fourteenth United States
Infantry. Dr. li. S. Haines. First
Lieutenant of the company, who at
tended the infantrymen, states that he
feared Private Rogoya's spine had been
injured, as his right arm was paralyzed.
Itogoya was removed to the military
hospital at Fort Huachaca, Ariz.
Watchman Humphrey said he was
startled by the approach of the squad
of men and called to them to learn
their identity. When no answer was
received he opened fire. The soldiers
were approximately 25 feet away at the
time.
First Sergeant Martin said the guard
did not hear Humphrey call and that
the watchman was not noticed until he
began shooting. As soon as the watch
man saw his mistake he fled, but later
surrendered himself to deputy sheriffs.
He was released tonight.

BESSIE BARRISCALE, Triangle's
greatest emotional star, and one
of the screen's leading players. Is
seen as a nun, the patron saint of op
pressed workingmen. in "The Sorrows
of Love," a five-act Ince feature of
picturesque backgrounds, which opened
a tnree-aay run at the Columbia The
ater yesterday. In addition to this
Barrlscale feature, "The Love Comet." a
comedy reeking with laughs and aero
nautics, and "France's Canine Allies"
are also screened.
"The Sorrows of Love" Is the story
of a girl brought up in an atmosphere
of rigor and emotional suppression,
that of a convent, who slips out into
a world of ill-suppressed emotion, that
of a Venetian struggle between labor
and aristocracy. She becomes the patron
saint or the workingmen and strives to
keep them from violence. She con
trols their leader (William Desmond),
her sweetheart, until a misunderstand
ing separates them. Following a quar
rel the sweetheart becomes bitter, re
turns to his old ways, and leads an at
tack against the Prince, the arch enemy
of the brotherhood.
The nun rushes to the palace to In
form the Prince and the workmen are
defeated in a bloody battle. The leader
is mortally wounded and the nun re
pentant, but he saves her from work
ingmen who would kill their betrayer.
He forgives her and dies, the nun
going back to her convent.
The telling of the story Is done in
dramatic fashion, while Miss Barrlscale,
who Is not as attractive as in other
roles. Is put to a test from which
she emerges with new distinction.
A distinctive peculiarity of the bill
is that Ora Carew, who plays a lead
ing role in "The Love Comet," the
comedy, has a prominent place in the
drama-
Aeroplanes, telescopes and a love
affair, contribute to the plot of "The
Love Comet," a recalcitrant father
causing all the trouble. Perhaps the
most laughable incident is that of the
negro preacher who turns white through
fright, thus overcoming the racial
prejudices of the girl who wishes to
have the wedding ceremony performed
by a white man.
Infants Tutor Miss Clark.
Infant stars, who toddle into the
Famous Players studio to realize their
parents' dream of having a screen idol
in the family, usually emerge again
with the distincton of having played
tutor to one of the greatest stars of
the films. Marguerite Clark, whose lat
est success in Paramount Pictures is
"Silks and Satins."
Miss Clark finds the inspiration for
her most popular roles in the uncon
scious acting of children. The great
est dramatic Instructors in the world,
she declares, may be found in the
nursery and the screen characteriza
tions which have made the tiny star
one of the most popular idols in the
country are perfected by a careful study
of the movements of children.
Tiny Helen Francis, who has posed
for the "Better Babies" series in the
Paramount Pictographs, recently re
hearsed before Miss Clark In the star s
apartment, so that the latter might
study the unconscious grace of the
little favorite of the f ictograpn. uaoy
Helen excells In society drama and it
was in the field, particularly, that Miss
San Francisco. She came under her
own power, but the displacement of
the rudder caused her to steer badly.

Judge Sullivan, of Spokane County,

Owing to the sensational nature of
the charges made by Willis in a pam
phlet issued some time ago against
Judge A. E. Rice, of the Lewis County
Superior Court, and the fact that Wil

various parts of the county reiterating
his accusation against the court, it is
expected that the trial will attract
much attention.

able. Showing etiquette in the nursery is
the latest of little Helen's roles in the
"Better Babies" films. The 3-year-old
girl has been posing recently in a
picture showing how the child should
enter the nursery, how to open a door,
how to behave In trying situations
peculiar to nursery society and. how
to act generally in a manner befitting
a well-bred young debutante who has
not outgrown dolls.
There is a touch of comedy. Miss

knocks over a vase with a hurried
movement, with a hasty uplifting of
the hands, raised eyebrows and an
Instinctive recoil.
Theda Not Alwajs A'amplre.
It does not follow that a vampire
must be a vampire always. Theda
Bara, star of "East Lynne," has been
telling William Fox that for a year,
and he hasn't believed her. It re
mained for a delegation from the Mid
dle West to prove it to him.
To prove that woman's curiosity is
as rampant in federated club women
as It is in fluffy pink tea ladies, a
group of delegates to the recent con
vention of the Federation of Women's
Clubs In New York approached the Fox
offices and asked whether they might
not visit his studios across the Hudson
and meet the famous Miss Bara.
The ladies entered the studio ex
pecting to see a black-swathed, sinu
ous figure, with midnight eyes, un
dulate toward them and extend a clam
my hand in greeting. Instead a gay
little figure in the scarlet and gold
costume of a vlvandiere darted from
the shadows.
"Who is this?" asked the delegation.
"Theda Bara, at your service," smiled
the star.
Noticing their disappointment and
knowing that they had come to see her
in her well-known character, she ram
from the room and appeared shortly in
the sable drapes of the screen siren.
The clubwomen hardly believed that it
was the same girl. But their amaze
ment was complete when, not more
than 15 minutes later, a demure figure
In the dove-gray of John Alden's Pris
cilla floated down the steps into the
Btudio.
Breese Can Drive Dogs.
For the production of "The Spell of
the Yukon." the new Metro five-act
feature picture, based on the poem of
the same name by Robert W. Service
and produced by Popular Plays and
Players under the direction of Burton
King, an entire Alaskan village was
built and set up In the snowy wastes
of Northern Canada. The work was
done under the supervision of Jacques
Suzanne, owner and trainer of the dog
teams used in this splendid represen
tation of life in the regions under the
Pole. Suzanne, three-fourths of whose
life has been spent in the open, knows
the life of the northern wilderness as
perhaps no other man in America
knows it.
Mr. Breese revels In the sort of out
door life shown in the typical Alaskan
scenes called for In the story, and Su
zanne pays him the compliment of say
ing he is the best amateur handler of a
dog-team ever seen south of Nome. He
is as well known on the speaking stage
as he Is on the screen. He will prob
ablv be best remembered for his work
in "The Lion and the Mouse." in which
he starred for several seasons, but in
recent years New York has seldom had
a season in which Edmund Breese has
not been seen In a highly successful
play.
For Metro, Mr. Breese has already
appeared in two other important pic
tures, among them "The Shooting of
Dan McGrew" and "The Song of the
Wage Slave."
Imperial De Texas, of which he is an
owner, a proclamation signed by him
self, urging the Mexicans to "remain
calm and observe that equanimity so
absolutely essential during the trying
times in which two friendly nations
are on the point of going to war."
Addressing Mexicans. natives of
Texas. Colonel chapa will say:
"I may say they have no right to
meddle with the internal affairs of
Mexico and It is their duty to assure
the authorities that they are ready to
abide by the responsibilities they have
assumed as citizens of this country and
that they are willing ever to comply
with the obligations contracted toward
the American flag, a flag which they
have sworn to defend by force of arms
if necessary."
WHITMAN GRADUATES 27
Fiftietli Anniversary of Founding
Seminary Celebrated.
of
WALLA WALLA, Wash.. June 22.
Degrees were given 27 graduates at
the annual commencement exercises at
Whitman College yesterday. President
S. B. L. 'Penrose awarded the degrees.
Seven students were given honors.
At the annual meeting of the trustees
and overseers today it was announced
that President Penrose would be left
free the coming year to travel in the
interests of the school.
A feature of the week was the cele
bration of the 50th anniversary of the
founding of tho Whitman Seminary.
Tuesday night.
Members of the Oto-Ophthalmologlcal
Society of the Pacific Coast had rare
good sport yesterday at the fourth an
nual meeting at the Benson Hotel in
running down some very rare and little-known
bacilli. They delved Into
the seeming occult art of eye, nose and
kindred troubles and talked a language
entirely foreign to the layman.
Anyone not a doctor who was not
equipped with a medical dictionary was
about as much at home as a deaf and
dumb man at a suffrage meeting. And
the discussions were about as inform
ing. Not that the learned doctors did not
know what they were talking about
far from it. They knew too much for
the layman's brain to follow them.
The leading discussion of the after
noon, for example, was listed as a
"Contribution to the bacteriology of the
cocco-bacillus foetidus ozoenae, Perez;
with additional notes on the treatment
of clinical ozena by means of polyva
lent Perez vaccines."
It AV'aa Some Subject.
This, as might be surmised, was some
subject. It was grappled with by Dr.
Henry Horn, of San Francisco, who
shed considerable light on it. He was
interested in his topic no question
about that, and the learned gentlemen
present took deep interest in what he
said. But what chance has a newspa
per reporter got to acquire a medical
education between assignments?
It seemed that the trail of the cocco
bacillus foetidus ozoenae was first
struck by a South American 13 years
ago. His name was Perez. This malev
olent bug is credited with being the
cause of the dread malady known,
to the members of the society at least,
as ozena.
For purposes of simplifying matters.
Dr. Horn suggests the name of Bacillus
Rhinosepticus for the cocco-bacillus,
etc He gave It as his experience that
the -use of the Perez vaccines in com
batting the malign influence of the ba
cillus has been favorable. He expressed
the opinion that so far as is known to
medical science. Perez was right, or, at
any rate, his theory has not been dis
proved. Good, If Not Quite Clear.
Dr. Horn said it is one of the most
valuable therapeutic measures he
knows of. What the ultimate result
will be of Its use he could not say. but
certainly valuable improvements were
shown in the use of vaccines in coun
teracting the effect of the bacillus.
Dr. Horn was not at all stingy,
either, in the use of the vaccine. He
said as much as the patient could stand
without undue actions was about right
For himself. In his practice, he had
been given a preliminary sub-cutan-cous
injection containing 300,000,000
organisms. This was a sort of an open
ing gun in the campaign, merely, and
was to be followed up the next day
with a shot of 600,000,000, the dosage
to continue until the patient took in
his veins 1.000,000.000 of the busy
little bacillus killers at one dose with
out flinching.
To simplify the whole matter, a
placard with this inscription was ar
ranged over two microscopes, into
which one might peer:
"Etiology of Ozena. Series of prep
arations showing the selective action
of the cocco-bacillus foetidus ozanae
Perez on the turbinate bones of the
nose."
Slain Germ Viewed.
This was as simple as the higher
logarithms. But a glance into the mi
croscope showed conclusively that the
bacillus in question has been caught.
Gaily emblamed in his vivid stain, he
lies there peacefully, where all may
look and see. The bacillus Rhinosep
ticus, for the information of the reader,
is a model organism with long flag
ell us.
Dr. Horn's paper was followed by a
discussion in which many participated.
It was preceded by a paper read by Dr.
John J. Kyle, of Los Angeles, whose
topic was "Epidemicity of Nasal Sinus
Disease." The two subjects naturally
grouped themselves together, and they
were considered as closely related in
the discucisions.
Dr. C. Benson Wood, of Seattle, gave
the third paper of yesterday after
noon's session on the following sub
ject: "Chronic infection of the fau
cial tonsils as a causative factor in
the production of paralysis of the ac
commodation; with a report of a case."
This, too, was followed by a discus
sion. Meeting; Ia Fourth.
The society is now four years old,
and there was a large and representa
tive attendance from many points of
the Pacific Coast at yesterday's two
sessions. In the morning a number of
papers were read on topics of interest
to the profession, and at noon the
Visitors were guests of Dr. J. F. Dick
son, ex-president, at an elaborate
luncheon at the Arlington Club. Last
night members of the society were
guests of Dr. J. L. McCool. president,
at an informal dinner at the University
Club at 7 o'clock.
This morning at 9 o'clock, members of
the society will attend a clinic at St.
Vincent's Hospital. After this is con
cluded, members will be taken by local
physicians to luncheon, after which
the' society will be taken by the doctors
of the city for a drive over the Colum
bia River Highway. They will take
dinner at Chantlcler Inn at 7:30 to
night, after which dancing will be en
joyed, and the return to the city will
be made by moonlight. Tomorrow med
ical topics will be discussed both aft
ernoon and night, when the convention
will adjourn.
