He crossed into Germany and, reached an agreement with representa tives of the German government by which it would supply ammunition to the Bolsheviki. “The ammunition has been paid for in part out of the Soviet jewel fund, which includes the crown jewels. The sccond object of Trotzky’s visit to East Prussia was to prevent munitions from reaching Poland, and to accomplish this object ho employed Germans at Dan zig with money from the same jewel fund A large traffic in arms took place between the Russians and Ger mans in tlio neighborhood of Soldau.

Mexico -City, Aug. 23.—r^ r o Za-’ mora, the bandit chief whose men carried off a number of captives, in cluding several American and British subjects, from the town of Cuale, State of Jalisco, on August 20, is being closely pursued by gvernmcnt troops, said General Eduardo C. Garcia, chief of stuff at tlie War Department, to night. Six Americans who were held by Zamora have been released, hut there are several moro still in his hands, and at least two British subjects aro being held for ransom..

DRAMATIC STARS PLEDGE HARDING THEIR SUPPORT Delegation of Actors and Actresses Gather at Harding’s Front Porch — Express Sentiments In Speech and Song—Hughes Con fers With Nominee American and British diplomats made representations to the foreign of fice todny, and were told the govern ment was bending every energy to cap ture tho bandits and liberate the cap tives. The war office has heard nothing of tho progress of the force of 5,000 troops sent’into the State of Jalisco on August 16, to round up the Zamora band, and the rail communications in that section of the country are very poor, the country being very mountain ous. Friends of the American and British captives, knowing Zamora's reputa tion for ruthlessness, fear he may kill his prisoners if he is closely pressed. They have been working for the past couplo of days iu raising money with which to ransom the captives. Zamora, who has been .called a “per petual bandit,” succeeded during tbe last year of tho Caranza regime to the leadership of outlaws in the states of Michaocan and Jalisco. This step was made easy for him by the death of the notorious outlaw, Jose Inez Chaves Garcia. the T DAY’S WEATHER FORECAST.
