Jicial J'etrograd statement today told
of "fiereo fighting" northwest of

Dniester junction was claimed.
Two German steamers have fallen to

the Italian front, the offensive con

statement early today told of a ruse in
the Astico valley, whereby Austrians
pretended to surrender but were met
by a "murderous fire" which ended in
their rout.
In the Rienz valley, the Auntrinus
gained an advantage only to be routed

This capture is the most important
move since the Teutons jammed their

Paris, Oct. .10. "Serbia asks favors
from nobody. All she wants is fair
play. She expects the allies to do their
full diity by her. Franco has done so
already, anil doubtless Kngland intends
to do likewise, but she is too slow. Un
less she hurries, aid will come too late. "
Thus did Milenko Vestnich, former,

Not Calling for Help.
"I don't wish this to be interpret

It isn't in the Serbian people's nature
to do this. Nor do I say this in a

Think These Have Smuggled
, In Many From Ports On
Mexican Coast
San Francisco, Nov. 1. Delving
deeper Into what they believe ia a
gigantic conspiracy to smuggle Chinese
into this port, officiuls today began to
investigate the movements of a half
dozen coastwise steamers.
These vessels, it was thought, may
have- smuggled systematically many
Chinese from Mexican ports. Ostensi
bly, they placed between Sail Francisco,
I .os Angeles and San lhego and thence
to San Pedro. One vessel in particular
excited suspicion because of the length
of time it took to go to San Pedro.
A high official suggested that Mex
ican ports are within easy reach of
San Diego and tliat numerous Chinese
are being shipped to Mexico at present.
Putting back again to Snn Francisco
the coastwise vessels are not watched.
Hence, if they have been making a
business of smuggling Chinese, their
task has been comparatively easy.
Authorities believe smuggling activi
ties have occurred on the liners Man
churia, Korea and Liberia.
The grand jury session will consider
December 3 tho testimony of officers
and men of the Mongolia, subponeaed
following discovery of 80 Chinese on
board her when she docked here last
week. In the meantime, Commissioner
General Caminetti will be here from

Paris, Nov. 1. Franco makes no
secret of the fnct that she has executed
two women spies. Officials, however,
refuse to lie drawn into this discussion
from, the standpoint of tho German tuc
ecution of Miss Edith Cavell, Knglish
woman. They gave mo records and the
authority to publish these.
The oases are not similar, according
to French records, to the case of Miss
Cavell wiho was only chnirged wim

frequency and direction or railroad
transports, the sanitation of the army,
the number of wounded and the arrivals
of troops nt ports, espoclnlly tho num

She received 400 francs expenses
from February 3 to II. She then trav

Ijiter she returned to France on a
similar mission with 500 francs ex

Douglas, Aria., Nov. 1. With the op

Agun Pricta at 1:.H) this afternoon a
shell exploded in front of the home of
Mrs. Alice O'Loughlin, nn American,
100 yards from the trenches. Nobody
was hurt.
Tho battle wns started when the Car
rnnzistus opened fire on the Villa ad
vance guard. A Villa battery of four
inch guns was dragged to an advautng
eous position 200 yards south of the
internutiounl boundary and returned
the fire, sending a stream of shrapnel
shells Into Agun Pricta,
Villa's artillery fire was most effec
tive. Destruction in the city of A guns
Pricta was visible front tho American
side. At the siune time the Carraiixa
fire wns apparently hiuh and Villa casu
alties few.
Under cover of tho artillery fire, a
company of Villistns advanced to with

their louder yelled to tho American sol
diers on the border within a stone's
throw. His men luy flat on tho ground,
waiting for an opportune moment, while
the Curranzishis potted away at them
briskly from the shelters.
Before the fight had been In progress
five minutes hulf n dor.on shells burst
within 50 yards of the United States
customs house, rattling the windows and
sending a knot of spectators guthorcd
there running helter skelter for cover.
Following closely behind the infantry

cavalry, led by General Francisco Villa
himself. Other dense musses of infantry
were seen behind the cnvnlry.

Villa pressed tho attack from the
east. After his luTuntry had advanced
to within a very short distunce of the
city II was hnlted by encountering
dense bnrb wire entanglements on the
southern anil eastern sides of 1ho town.
Bugles sounded orders for tho Villistas
to withdraw, which they did In good
order, whereupon a general artillery
duel developed. The uproar was ter
rific. Shells exploded constantly al
most on American soil, while showers of
bullets from machine guns on both sides
kicked up clouds of dust between the
onnosinu" urmies.
Two and a half miles east of Agua
Prleta Villa concentrated several bat
teries of artillery and directed a heavy
fire on tho barbed wire entanglements.
Meanwhile the csvnlry maneuvered
rapidly and constantly before the city,
evidently waiting for tho entangle
ments to be demolished beforo attempt
inn a charire. That the firn of Car-
ranwi's riflemen was poor was very evi
dent, as the cavalry made excellent
marks, but appeared to suffer no heavy
casualties.
Threo Villa batteries, which had
been unshed up so close to the Car
ranra trenches that they were within
easy rifle shot, were knocked out of
commission by General Culb-s' four
guns, which placed several shells uc
ctmitoly among the rebel cannon.
After joining in the din for Ifl min
utes, Villa's muln machlno gun bat
teries were dragged to a point one and
one-half miles east of Agua Prietn,
where the gunners squatted around
them smoking cirageltes culmly.
George 0. Oarothers, representing the
American state department, witnessed
the fight from the international bound
ary. An hour after the first shot General
Guiles reported a Mexican woman, non
combatant, and six soldiers wounded.
