' Recalls Execution In Mexican War. Washington. The hanging of 13 negro troopers for complicity in the Houston riot was unknown to prac tically all officials of the War Depart ment until it was announced at Fort Sam Houston. Doubtless the .death sentence of the court-martial and the preparations for the executions were known to a few high officials, but so far as enn be learned the depart mental commander Varrled out the executions as a routine affair, as he is warranted to do In time of war and will only make the usual report which was received in news dispatches. Were the country at peace the executions would have required the approval of the President. In time of war, however, all such authority is decentralized and placed with re sponsible commanders. No such wholesale execution In the army has occurred within the memory of the present generation. The last of its kind was the execution of the so called "St. Patrick's Battalion," by General Scott during the Mexican War. Members of the battalion de serted, Joined the Mexican forces, later made their homes In Mexico, marrying native women, and many of their descendants now are found there, natives of that country in all respects, but bearing names quite foreign to the language they speak.

THE HOLY CiTY IN BRITISH HANDS Turks Are Forced to Give Up Jerusalem. SAFEGUARDING HOLY PLACES Glorious Consummation Of Endeavor Which For 1,200 Years Has Been The Desire Of The Chris tian World. London. Andrew Bonar Law, Chan cellor of the Exchequer, announced In the House of Commons that Jeru salem, after being surrounded on all sides by British troops, bad surren dered. The Chnncellor said British, French and Mohammedan representatives were on the way to Jerusalem to safe guard the holy places. General Allenby reported that on Saturday he attacked tho enemy's po sitions south and west of Jerusalem, the Chancellor said. Welsh and Home County troops, advancing from the di rection of Bethlehem, drove back the enemy, and, passing Jerusalem on the east, established themselves on the Jerusalem-Jericho road. At tho same time London infantry and dismounted yeomanry attacked the strong enemy positions west and northwest of Jeru salem and placed themselves astride the Jerusalem-Shechem road. The Holy City, being thus isolated, sur-' rendered to General Allenby. The Chancellor said General Allenby expected to enter Jerusalem officially .Tuesday, accompanied by the com manders of the French and Italian contingents end the heads of the French political mission. British po litical officers, together with the Brit ish governor, were In the party that had gone ahead on the safeguarding mission, the Chancellor stated. The capture of Jerusalem had been delayed to some degree, added the Chancellor, In consequence of the great care that had been taken tc avoid damage to the sacred places In and around the city. Turks Held It 673 Years. The capture of Jerusalem by the British forces marks the end with two brief Interludes, of more than 1,200 years' possession of the seat of the Christian religion by the Moham medans. For 673 years the Holy City has been in indlsputed ownership of the Turks, the last Christian ruler of Jerusalem being the German Emperor, Frederick II, whose short-lived domina tion lasted from 1229 to 1244. Apart from its connection with the campaign being waged against Turkey by the British in Mesopotamia, the fall of Jerusalem marks the definite col lapse of the long:protracted effort of the Turks to capture the Suez Canal and invade Egypt. Almost the first move made by Turkey after her en trance into the war was a campaign against Egypt across the great desert of the Sinai Peninsula. BREAKS WITH GERMANY.
