Waste of $1,250,000
by Company Heads
is Charged in Court
New York, Nov. IS. Alleging that
more than $1,250,000 of the' funds of
the, Aetna Exptosive company, Inc.,
had been paid to E. M, Bassick, a
former Bridgeport, Conn., manufac
turer, for "services which any clerk
could have performed," receivers of
the corporation today brought an
equity suit against Arthur J. Mox
ham, former president, and Ferdi
nand L. Belin, former treasurer of
the company. Bassick was engaged
by Moxham, it is alleged, to close
contracts with the French govern
ment on a 10 per cent commission,
which eventually would have netted
him $4,000,000.
The receivers, former Gov. Benja
min B. Odell and George C. Holt,
asked the court to ascertain the dam
age sustained by the corporation by
reason of the alleged "negligent, im
proper and unauthorized acts of the
defendants and to compel them to
repay all moneys which they have
lost, squandered, wasted or misap
propriated." Russia is to Be Opened
by Way of Odessa Port
London, Nov. IS. Commenting
on the arrival at Constantinople of
allied squadrons, the London news
papers forecast the speedy opening
up of Russia through Odessa and
other Black sea ports and predict
a betterment of conditions at Petro
grad shortly through the forth
coming opening of the Baltic to the
entente.
"The way into the Black sea Is
clear and great results must follow
quickly the appearance of the al
lied fleets off the Golden Horn,"
says the Times. "By opening up the
Roumanian coast and the mouth of
the Danube the allies will complete
the task of the liberation of Rou
mania, though in effect Roumania
is free already and its German gar
rison under General von Macken
sen is seeking a pathway home.
Shipbuilding is to Proceed,
but Designs to Be Changed
Washington, Nov. IS. Shipbuild
ing in this country is to be con
tinued steadily, but the program of
the shipping board, based on war
needs, will be revised and designs
for ships will be changed with refer
ence to economical cost of opera
tion. Chairman Hurley said today,
outlining the board's peace-time
plans.
Kearney, N. J., Nov. 14. An
nouncement was made today that
the Foundation Company shipyards
here will be closed Saturday after
the launching of the Acrema, the
10th and last wooden cargo carrier
the company contracted to build
for the Emergency Fleet corpora
tion. Of the 6,000 employes 5,000
already have been transferred to
other yards.

Presidio, Tex., Nov. IS. Irregu
lar Mexican troops crossed to the
American side near Presidio today
and drove off to the Mexican side
several head of stock belonging to
an American rancher of Presidio
The Mexicans were believed to be
soldiers of the Oiinaga garrison.
Villa is reported to be at Tres

with Colonel Hayward, formerly of
Nebraska, now in command of a
regiment of colored troops. He
brought back messages from 2,000
Nebraskans and 1,500 other boys to
their mothers and he declared that
these women, devoted and sacrific
ing for the sake of the country,
should have a larger voice in its
affairs.
Knew it Couldn't Last.
"What I saw of our armies and
the armies of our allies at the front
proved to me beyond a doubt that
the days of Germany's reign of ter
ror were numbered," he said.
"Against such splendid troops, such
perfect unity of command even the
great German war machine could
not long stand. Events have proved
that." I
Mr. Reavis visited here at the
home of his brother. B. I. Reavis,
He expects to return to Washing

Mrs. Reavis has recovered from the
the effects of a slight operation.
