Two Hundred and Seventeen Persons Are Rescued. U*er Otty of Honolulu la Oostroyod by Fira on Voyage. From Hawaik * San Francisco, Oct. 13.--Passengers and crew of the liner City of Honolulu were rescued when the vessel burned In the Pacific ocean, 1,400 miles east of Hawaii, land 670 miles west of Los Angeles. * The 72 passengers and crew of 145 took to the lifeboats about ten o'clock in the morning in a smooth* sea. They were picked up by the freighter West Faralon, which arrived on the scene four hours and a half later. The wireless call for help, sent out brought four vessels hurrying to the rescue. The United States army transport Thomas hastened under forced draft toward the spot, and the Matson Navigation company's ship Enterprise also crowded steam In an effort to rescue the passengers and crew. The private yacht Casania, owned by Edward L. Doheny, Los Angeles oil magnate, heard the distress signals before the West Faralon did, but the latter vesael waa only SO miles from the burning vessel, and reached there first. ;> The West Faralon Is a shipping board freighter. It has only llmted accommodations on board. Most of the rescued passengers and crew had to remain on deck until the larger boats arrived. Favorable conditions enabled the West Faralon to make fast time, and the smoothness of the ocean, allowed the small boats to ride the swell without danger. leans of Shooting Is in the Csntar Of tha "Redlight" District--Quarrel . Qtifr Nsgro Girl .Startad, . • ? the Battle. . %k& Island, 111., Oct l«.^ThiW persons are dead and a fourth seriously wounded as the result of a renewal of the violence which Ij^ui shaken Rock Island. - Two of the dead were police officers The third was a colored man whort they attempted to arrest in his home. ,The wounded man was a policeman. The# tragedy raises the dumber of persons slain In eight days of fighting In the city to six.

All available police, police reserves and deputy sherflfs have been called out and sent Into the trouble district to prevent an outbreak of race riots. It is probable that the trouble will result in state troops being sent to Rock. Island to aid the federal agents already on the job In cleaning up the crime situation. There has been a persistent demand -from the civic organizations and the better element for troops ever since young Looney was shot. The scene of the shooting was in the center of the >4redllght" area and it little more than a block from where the bullet-riddled body of James ("Dude") Brown, reputed head of the colored gambling element, was picked up just a week ago. . Shortly after eight o'clock a report was received at the police station of a row over a colored girl In the levee district. Two policemen, one of them Gus Klrsefh, were sent to- investigate and on the way they picked np two more city officers. Policemen George Green and Edward Miner. They approached the house of Robert Scott, colored, In Twenty-second street, where the trouble was reported. They walked In. Green in the lead. In the small room behind the stove in the unlighted kitchen crouched Scott with a shotgun. Green grappled with the man, but the black opened fire and Miner staggered and fell. Miner, In falling, shot and the bullet strnck Green, who was instantly killed. Other shots were fired and Scott was mortally wounded. Officer Kirsch also was wounded hut not seriously. Miner died on the operating table. ;S£ GAIN IN ALL COMMODITIES V'MfyTtMrMr Department of Commerce Figures Show Widespread Increaaa •> In Production. o |fV.I" Washington, Oct 12.--Figures from ^^#4dlti«ial Industries received by the §^^)epartment of Commeflie , covering $£»-V' August continue to show widespread 1 i .Increase in the production of com- 4 flnodities during that month.

Tha note concluded with the plotia hope that the smuggling of which Secretary Hughes complained Is temporary,, attd that the United States goVf eminent in time will be able to check it by its*own efforts. With regard to the abuses such as double clearance papers, given by port authorities, the false transfer of American ships to British registry, and more careful supervision of cargoes, the British government extended sympathy and promised the most complete co-operktion. •' DECLARES EUROPE CAN PAY Plan to Cancel All War Loana I* Denounced by Secretary Hoover.
