from Bulgaria that they predicted

claim war on Turkey, appealing to the
patriotic spirit of the Bulgarians.
one diplomat thus summed up the-I
-iiuation toda?
• If actual war is not proclaimed by
night we can hope for the best. Even,
if war is declared there will still be a |

may hare infiutnee enough to prevent I
hostilities if they ac t in unison "

MIXED ASPHALT
Natural asphalt will not be used by
the county commission in the proposed
Peachtree road paving. Difference of
opinion among board members as to
the price and quality of the natural
products as quoted by the Barber As
phalt Company and the International
Asphalt Company caused the rejection
of both bids by the commission today.
The paving will be put down in the
mixed method with artificial asphalt
furnished by the Standard Oil Com
pany at $21.60 a ton as opposed to the
$25.50 quoted by the Intel national com
pany for cubana] asphalt and S3B a ton
quoted by the Barber company.
Work on the Peachtree paving will
be begun at once. The plan for the
paving adopted by the commission con
templates an asphalt road on both sides
of the street car tracks. The eighteen
foot strip occupied by the tracks will
be put dow n in oil macadam. The pro
posed extension is two and one-half
miles long, from Buckhead to the coun
ty line.

SLAIN IN BATTLE
I
Six Others Are Wounded ini
Capture of Rebel Strong
hold in Nicaragua.’
WASHINGTON. Oct. 5. —That the
long expected battle between American
marines and Nicaraguan rebels was
fought yesterday at Barranca hill was
the information received at the state
department today in a cable-gram from
Minister Weitzel, at Managua.
Thi ■ stated that American
charged up Barranca hill and dislodged
the forces of General Zeiedon, the rebel
leader, which were intrenched at that
point.
The minister reported that several
American marines were killed and that
General Zeiedon had been fatally
wounded. The battle lasted for 37
minutes and was fiercely fought.
An earlier dispatch received by Min
ister Castrillo, of Nicaragua, from the
minister of foreign affairs at Managua,
stated that four American marines had
been killed and six wounded in the
fighting.
Barranca hill is located near the
town of Coyotepa, which was afterward
occupied by the American forces.
Rebels Ordered to Vacate.
Previous dispatches to the state de
partment said that the American com
mander in Nicatagua. Admiral South
erland. had given General Zeiedon 24
hours’ notice to vacate Barranca hill
and allow' the passage of the American
forces. The time limit of this ulti
matum expired at 10 a. m. yesterday,
but nothing had been heard as to the
outcome until the receipt of today’s
dispatches.
A later cablegram to the Nicaraguan
legation here says that 100 Nicaraguan
government troops were killed and 200
wounded.
General Zeiedon was fatally wounded
and captured eight miles from Masaya,
while retreating from Barranca hill,
and died shortly’ afterward.
Rapid Fire Guns Effective.
The use of rapid fire guns on both
sides of tile hill is supposed to have
done fearful execution among the reb
els at the top. According to the re
ports received, the marines opened up
. with their rapid fire guns for fifteen
minutes and during that time silenced
the fire of the rebels.
. Five hundred men were stationed on
. one side and 400 opposite them. The
i reports state that the marines soon got
the range of the intrenchments and
i swept the hill with a terrific cross fire.
. There was no opposition of a serious
nature when the charge up the hill was
s begun. /

the lead, with DePalma second and tm-
Los Angeles driver starting again n

from the course and ran on the t i ••
alongside the track. After the strugg
he got the machine back on the roa
way and went on without slackening
his pace.
In the fourteenth lap Tetzlaff took
the lead again. He passed Bragg in a
wild sprint down the home stretch.
Tetzlaff’s second lead was held or
a short time. Tire trouble forced him
to the pit. While he changed area •
tire the mechanician filled the gasoline
tank and poured oil over the bea ings
The stop took 2 minutes and 22 sec
onds. As they started again Bragg m
his big red Fiat, shot past them.
Horan, in a Benz, stopped for a tire
change as Tetzlaff started.
Hughie Hughes, in his yellow Mer

A rear wheel came off and the car was
sent staggering out into the corn fields
It ploughed along for several rods be
fore the driver could bring it to a stop
Neither Hughes nor the mechanician.
Ed Pullen, were severely injured, al
though they were pretty badly shaken
up. They jumped from the machine,
put on a new’ wheel, got the car on the
track and started again.
In the seventeenth lap Bragg was
leading by 1 minute and 39 seconds
Hughes went out of the race in th
seventeenth lap. He broke a gas line
and could make no repairs.
Tire Trouble
Puts Bragg Third.
Tire trouble bothered Bragg at the
end of the twenty-second lap. Tetz
laff and DePalma passed him, and when
Bragg got away again after 3 minutes
and 59 seconds he was trundling along
in third place.
At the end of the twenty-third lap
DePalma was running five second
ahead of Tetzlaff, with Bragg third
Then Tetzlaff got to the front again
DePalma was forced to stop at the pits
for a new’ tire, gasoline and W'ater. H
was unable to get away for two min
utes and nine seconds.
Oldfield, who had had tire trouble .it!
day, stopped for further changes in th,
twenty-second lap. He began creeping
up in the twenty-seventh lap.
