PAGE FIVE REPEATS ATTACK ON BRITISH PORT British1 Freighter Is Again Struck at Alicante Starts Sinking French Vessel Is Sunk .at Denia MADRID, June 10. (AP) A lone Insurgent atr raider, Hying an Ital ian - made Savola seaplane, again bombed AHcnnte, Denia and the British-owned port of Gandla today. The British freighter Thorpehaven, which was bombed three days ago at Alicante, again was struck and started sinking stern first. The civilian section of Alicante, which previously had suffered one of the worst bombardments of the war from a fleet of Insurgent air raiders, again was battered. Details, how ever were not Immediately available. Gandla Target Again At Gandla the "phantom" raider. repeating his practice of striking about midnight, destroyed the main warehouse of the British-owned port and sank a small Spanish coastal schooner. At Denia, he returned to the at tack on the French freighter Bris bane, and dropped two bombs aboard the crippled ship. The Brisbane, which had been smoldering on the beach since In cendiary bombs set her ablaze yes terday, filled rapidly and settled to the bottom. Beven persons were killed In -the first attack on the Brisbane, but no new reports of casualties followed the latest raids, which started about 10:30 last night. Misses Sit III MR Ship Dispatches from the coast said that a seaplane, possibly the same that attacked Alicante. Denln and Gandla, swooped down on a sail ing vessel off Javea, Just below Denia. and dropped . two bombs, which missed the ship. The British cruiser Penelope was to put into Gandla tomorrow to Investigate the attacks there. Officers from the United States desroyer Claxton, which had called at Gandla to pick up Vice-Consul Lee Worley. were conducted on a survey of the air raid damage by Edwin Apfel, British manager of the port. Sailors from the destroyer gath ered machine-gun bullets as souve nirs. Worley. who had been station ed at Valencia, had been given leave to go to Paris for an appendectomy. San Frnnrlsco Butter.

Local Women Get Caught In Portland Hotel Strike The Portland hotel strike provided unexpected excitement for the dele gates of the Jackson County Public Health association who attended a conference in the up-state metropolis this week, it was revealed today by Mrs. Moore Hamilton, the associa tion's director of public relations. The delegates returned to Medford lut night. The strike was called suddenly after lunch Wednesday while the Medford women were on a tour to Bonneville dam, Mrs. Hamilton relat ed. They knew nothing of the strike until they returned to the hotel and were told by the bus driver that they would have to carry their own lug gage and otherwise shift for them selves, she said, adding that a picket line had already been established around their hotel, the Multnomah. Needing nourishment, the women found the coffee shop closed, though It was reopened yesterday, she stated. Things were peaceful enough out side the hotel but Inside all was con fusion, with executives and inexperi enced personnel, hastily drafted for service, running around without any apparent aim, Mrs. Hamilton said. The new help appeared very willing to be of assistance but had little Idea of what to do, she related. Elevator service was maintained by the strike-breaking help so that the local women did not have to climb the stairs to their 4th floor rooms, Mrs. Hamilton stated. Nevertheless traveling in the elevators was a trifle precarious as the operators either overshot or undershot the floor levels and one didn't know whether the lift would shoot up through the roof or get stuck between floors, she a&smed. Carrying their own bags, the Med ford women checked out of the hotel without difficulty, Mrs. Hamilton said. She added that the strike did not interfere with the collection of bills. The delegates were Mrs. Hamilton. Mrs. R. E. Green, Mrs. J. C. 3. Wellls. Miss Helen Bullls, Mrs. F. Corning Kenly and Mrs. Howard Hill. Attending the conference for the Jackson county health department were Dr. C I. Drummond, Mrs. Blanche Runels Friable, supervisor of public health nurses, and Miss Flor ence Welsser and Miss Helen Parish, nurses. They did not stay at a hotel, however, and so missed the excite ment of the strike. Livestock SACRAMENTO. June 10.

(API But ter Prints: A grade. 37ic lb. in NEW YORK, June 10. (AP) The stock market lost Its rallying urge to day and leaders reverted to the apa thetic shuffling which has marked proceedings the past several weeks. The list got off to a fairly active and firm start, but light profit tak ing soon halted rising inclinations and small initial advances were can celled or converted Into minor losses. While there were modest gains in evidence here and there at the close, declines of fractions to a point or so predominated. Inflation was still the principal topic of conversation In Wall street, the belated run-up yesterday having been attributed partly to a revival of this theme, but trading forces were not too enthused over this matter and needed little urging to cash a portion of the previous day's mark ups. The day's turnover was around 400,000 shares. ' Today's closing prices for 33 select ed stocks follow: Al. Chem. & Dye 149' Am. Can .. ...... s'l'A Am. & Fgn. Pow . 3',4 A.
