AMERICA'S OBSELETE AIRCRAFT EQUIPMENT.

Washington, November 10.

That no a single pursuit plane is fully equipped for war service is one of the sweeping charges made by the defence in the sensational Mr. hearing yestrday in the court martial of Colonel Mitchell. Frank Reid, a member of the House of Representatives, dramatically declared that he would prove that the Shenandoah was in an unfit state when she started on her fatal trip and that the arrangera of the Hawaiian flight of the PN 9 were incompetent and moreover that the Government aviators took unnecessary risks with the result that many were killed, and that the bulk of the present equipment of the army air force was obsolete, the war department having only sixty- nine aircraft of which sixty were used for training purposes.-Reuters American Service.

MUNITION STEAMER FIRED AT.

Portland, Maine, November 10. An Army steamer, laden with explosive power, suspected to be a rum runner by a coastguard patrol boat, found one pound shells boing aimed at her before she was able to signal her identity. Not. realising that she was pursued she had veered off and put on steam.. The commander of the patrol boat explained later that the circum- stances looked most suspicious as the vessel had cases piled up on deck and appeared to be fleeing-Reuter's American Service.

THE SYRIAN CAMPAIGN. :

Paris, November 10.

On the 19th the bombardment began, again when the bandits were assailing add plundering Three hundred clay houses were destroyed and the Casualties totalled 37 of whom 14 were French soldiers killed and 47 Injured and 50 Armeniana slaughtered by rebels.
