This information was contained in reports from Tashkent. Kashgar itself was virtually sacked during the combat, which took place when ‘Iungan detach- ments attacked the town and res- cued b garrison of ‘hmgan, which was beseiged in a fortress there by independent government troops.

Counter Attack

The latter forces, attempting a counter attack, were beaten back, and in retrieving sought refuge near the British Consulate. which was fired on by victorious Tun- gans, with a number of fatalities and casualties among its penan- nel.

Retreating independently, the government troops joined scattered detachments under the Emir of Ohotan and occupied Jarirent, while partisan groups of Uygun and Kirghiz, supporting the inde-

ndent government forces, took positions on roads and cut off Kashgsr.

Ie-inforeemeuts

Meanwhile, Genera-l Machuing, leader of the Kasbgnr independent government troops. was reported marching on Kashgar with rem- nauts of his army, which was de- felted in the north by provlncal government forces.

Jail lay dead tonight- the victim of his own boasting and the guns of four St. Clair County officers-and the trail of the fugi- tive "Cop killer" again was hot. Herbert Youngblood, who was fac- ing s murder charge when he ao- eornpanled Dillinger in a break from the Crown Point, Ind, Jail on March 8, died this afternoon a few hours after he had shot it cut with Sheriff William l.» Van Antwerp and three I deputies. They had gone in search . of a negro who boasted of a success- ful jail break, and cornered Young- blood in s small store.

Deputies Wounded

Two of the deputiee-undersheriff Charles Cavanaugh and Howard lnhr-were wounded seriously in the chest: Sheriff Van Antwerp re- ceived a bullet in one arm. but from his hospital bed he directed the search for Dillinger who, Young- blood said, he had seen only last night.

ln Michigan and Ontario, police were patrolling the highways, for the outlaw bank robber was various- ly reported speeding toward Detroit with two men in a small automobile, and to have crowed the St. Clair River into Ontario, in a. rowboat.

Liberal claims in moral super-ice- lty in enforcement of the Prohibi- tion Act received a rude Jolt in the legislature yefiterday. w the ac-

tive benches, as Hon H. P. Mac- Phee, Attorney General, replied to Opposition attacks on the reputa- tion of the Royal Canadian Mount- ed Police and the record of the MscMillau Government with regard to law enforcement.

Skelwnsinthsclosetol the late lea Government rattled, and one even emerged into the light of day to confront the Liberal representa- tive from Rustico, when Mr. Mac- Phee cited the case of a convicted bootlegger who formerly was one 0d the squad of “strict temper- ance men" employed aa Liberal prohibition officers.

The Attorney General followed Mr. Thane A. Campbell and was the final speaker in the Draft Ad- dress debate. '

The dlfliculty in dealing with much of the Opposition criticism regarding the enforcement of the Prohibition law, Mr, MflcPhgg e1. plained, has been the vague and general nature of the statements made. Re was particularly surpris- Bd to hear the sweeping statements made by the ere-Minister of Public Works (Mr. McIntyre). “II I had not read the speech of my hon. friend, and had rm known him and seen his kindly face when he was delivering his remarks,” he said, "l would have felt that he was allied with those Arrserican gangsters we hear so much about because their attitude towards e police of their country is first about on a par with the attitude expressed by my hon. friend towards the Royal Canadian Mounted Police." (Ap- plsuse).

The charge had been made by the err-Minister, said Mr. MacPhee. that the Mounted Police were “ab-

worthles."

Mr. McIntyre: "So far as Prohi- bition enforcement is concerned.

m. McPhee: “You gay that now. and I am glad that my hon. friend has qualified it; because I am afraid he did not qualify it when he spoke. The statement he then made was that the Mounted Police were "absolutely worthless." The only qualification he made was that they were ‘ninety per-cent in- efficient.’ 1 am very glad the hon. member now admits that it was only as to the enforcement of one particular law of this Province that he was speaking."

Commands Police Efficiency

“A; Attorney General of the Pro- vince,” continued Mr. McPhee, “it is of course my duty to consult with the Mounted Police, and make use of them. I wish to tell this House quite candidly and frankly that I find the Police of great ls- sistance in the enforcement of all the laws of the Province. l get thel kcenest co-operation from them. 1 find they are an alert force, an ex- perienced force; that they know how to do things; that matters can be safely entrusted to them; that in the preparation of criminal cases they are of the greatest as- sistance to the Crown. And if the hon. membe who has last taken his seat (Mr. Campbell) evu- re- turns to the position he once occu- pied as Attorney General, l have no hesitation in predicting he will be prepared h: make the mine statement as to the efficiency and oo-operatlon of the Royal Canad- ian Mounted P0 .”
