General
Smedley Butler and Colonel
Joseph Henry Pendleton of the
United States Marine Corps had given Nicaraguan rebel general
Benjamín Zeledón an ultimatum to surrender the El Coyotepe fortress by 8:00 am or face bombardment by American artillery and then an invasion. The rebels refused to capitulate, and American shelling began minutes later.[10]
Off the coast of
Dover, the collision of the submarine B2 with the
Hamburg America Line ship Amerika killed 15 sailors. B2 was part of a flotilla of 13 submarines patrolling four miles from
Dover as part of
Royal Navy maneuvers, and crossed 60 feet in front of the bow of Amerika, which was moving twice as fast and was unable to stop. Only one man, Lt. Richard I. Pulleyne, survived, swimming upward after the sub broke in two.[14]
Sixteen-year old black teen Ernest Knox and a friend of his were tried and convicted for the rape and murder of 18-year old white teen Sleety Mae Crow, in
Forsyth County, Georgia, even though evidence of Knox's confession to the crime may have likely came under duress from local authorities. Both black teens were sentenced to be executed by hanging, bringing an end to most of the
immediate racial violence in the county.[16]
The first
University of Calgary began classes, with a faculty of three professors. The Alberta provincial legislature would not give the University power to confer degrees, and the
University of Alberta did not welcome the competition. As result, the university would close its doors in October 1915.[17]
Carl Stearns Clancy, 22, began his quest to become the first person to take a motorcycle around the world, setting sail from
Philadelphia to
Dublin. He would complete the job on August 27, 1913, after 18,000 miles.[20]
The
New York Highlanders played their final baseball game, ending a seven-game losing streak to defeat the
Washington Senators 8–6, and finishing in last place in the
American League with 50 wins and 102 losses. In 1913, the team would have a new manager, mostly new players, and a new name, as the
New York Yankees.
The second game of the
World Series ended with no winner, with the teams tied 6-6 after 11 innings before darkness forced an early end, meaning that the second game would have to be replayed. The
Boston Red Sox had won the first game, 4-3.[26]
The Maternity Allowance Act was passed in
Australia, granting a "
baby bonus" of five
pounds to the mother of every child born in the country, except the coverage did not include
indigenous mothers and other non-citizens.[28]
The province of
Hsikangseng, with a capital at
Batang, was created from West Sichuan and Eastern
Tibet.[4]
The largest
grain elevator in the world opened at the Port of
Montreal, more than doubling the capacity of the port. Over the next five years, the amount of grain shipped through Montreal increased more than 25 times.[32]
Former U.S. President
Theodore Roosevelt was shot and wounded by a .38 caliber bullet fired by
John Schrank, a
New York City saloonkeeper, who was standing at a distance of only 30 feet. The bullet was slowed when it passed through Roosevelt's metal eyeglasses case and the folded, fifty-page manuscript of Roosevelt's prepared speech,[35] but still penetrated three inches into his chest, too close to the heart to be safely removed by surgery.[36] Schrank was tackled by bystanders before he could fire a second shot, and Roosevelt went on to deliver his speech before getting medical treatment.[37] Schrank would be found insane and would spend the rest of his life at a mental hospital in
Waupun, Wisconsin, where he would die on September 15, 1943.
Italian and Turkish delegates signed a preliminary peace agreement in
Switzerland at
Ouchy, with the Italian fleet immediately being recalled from the
Aegean Sea and Turkish troops withdrawing three days later from
Libya.[41][42]
Turkey declined to reply to the note from the three Balkan states.[4]
Bulgarian pilot Radul Minkov and his observer, Prodan Toprakchiev, performed the first reconnaissance and second bombing from an airplane in history, throwing hand grenades from their
Albatros biplane at the railway station of Karaagac near
Edirne against
Turkey.
Russian explorer
Georgy Brusilov and the 24 crewmen of the Svyataya Anna (St. Anna) became
trapped in the
Arctic ice after sailing into the
Kara Sea.[44] At the time, the ship was still close to Russia's
Yamal Peninsula and the crew could have escaped to safety, but Brusilov made the decision to wait out the winter.[45]
The
Boston Red Sox won the
World Series, defeating the
New York Giants, 3–2, at
Boston. The series had been tied 3-3, and the deciding game was tied 1–1 after nine innings. The Giants had taken a 2–1 lead in the tenth, but then gave up two runs after the Giants'
Fred Snodgrass dropped an easy fly ball,
Christy Mathewson walked a batter, and
Fred Merkle failed to catch a foul ball.[46]

October 18, 1912 (Friday)
The
Ottoman Empire and
Italy signed the
First Treaty of Lausanne at the Swiss city of
Ouchy at 3:30 pm to end the
Italo-Turkish War, with the Empire agreeing to grant independence to
Tripolitania and
Cyrenaica long enough for the North African provinces to come under Italian control.[52] In return for the cession of
Libya, as well as the
Dodecanese Islands,
Italy paid a sum representing 4 percent of the Ottoman national debt (in consideration of the cost of the war) and allowed the
Ottoman Sultan to continue as the
Caliph of Libyan Muslims.[53] The Ottoman field commanders were ordered to withdraw their men, despite their feeling that they "were more than sure of their ability to win the war", and transferred Libyan soldiers to
Istanbul for military training and an eventual recapture of the territory, a plan which would fail during
World War I.[42]
Turkey's
Vardar Army engaged in its first major battles against the
Balkan League invaders. The Serbian Timok Infantry overcame the Turks at
Egri Palanga, and the Bulgarian Second Infantry forced a retreat of the Ottoman 16th Infantry at
Kocana,
Macedonia. At
Bilac, the Ottoman 19th Infantry was able to resist the invading Serbian Morava Infantry.[55]
William Kolehmainen, a brother of Olympic distance runner
Hannes Kolehmainen who had abandoned his amateur status, set a world record in the
marathon as a professional athlete, running the 26 mile, 385 yard distance in 2 hours, 29 minutes, and 39.2 seconds for the fastest marathon up to that time. The previous mark of 2:32:21 had been held by Hans Holmer. The official (amateur) record at the time was 2:40:32.2, held by
Thure Johansson of
Sweden.[57]
The Serbian Third Army captured
Pristina from the Ottomans, celebrating a return to the city that had been taken by the Turks in 1389.[61]
Peasants in the states of
Santa Catarina and
Paraná in
Brazil began a rebellion and fought with federal troops in what became known as the
Contestado War. In the first of the clashes, rebel leader
José Maria de Santo Agostinho, sanctified as "São João Maria" by his followers, was killed in action in Santa Catarina at Taquaruçu.[62]
A majority of the American force involved in the
military intervention in
Nicaragua left the country, except for a force of 100
U.S. Marines who remained in the capital of
Managua. In the nearly three-month operation, 37 American servicemen had been killed in action.[64]
Twelve days after becoming trapped in an ice field during the disastrous
Brusilov expedition, the crew of the Svyataya Anna lost their chance to escape to safety when winds sent the field drifting northward into the
Arctic Ocean, with the ship locked inside. The ship would remain trapped in moving ice for a year and a half, and only two of the sailors would survive.[44] The ship's log would finally be found in July 2010.[74]
An
insurgency erupted among ethnic Albanians in the Ottoman-controlled region of
Luma when the
Serbian Army tried to cross through the area to gain access to the
Adriatic Sea.[77]
Theodore Roosevelt delivered his "Farewell Manifesto" to an audience of 16,000 in Madison Square Garden, the last speech of his unsuccessful run for a third term as president.[79]
