TITE MORNING OREGON! AX, "SATURDAY. JANUARY 3. 1914. 4 DEFENDERS GAIN AT I1UEV0 LAREDO Rebels Hanged as "Warning"; Acts of Barbarism Are Re ported From Front. MAN "SPITTED" ON POLE Federals Reported Also to Hare Slain Wounded In Field Attacking Party Waiting lor Artil lery to Arrive. ; LAREDO, Tex., Jan. 2. While the fighting today wis Indecisive, what ever advantage there was at the end of the second day's battle in the siege of Is'uevo Ladero, Mex., seemed with the federal defenders tonight. In the most important engagement today a Consti tutionalist machine gun detachment -was dislodged from its position 1000 yards from the federal position, and the rebels fled after- 150 of their number had been killed. The federal loss was , placed at five. The main line of the besiegers to night was unbroken and the govern ment troops held their positions. Rebel .leaders were disappointed -at the delay in the arrival of artillery reinforce ments. They plan to prolong the siege indefinitely, and promised a more vig orous attack when the artillery arrives. Rebels Reported flanged. Seven Constitutionalists were sum marily hanged by federals today "as a warning." It also was reported, but not confirmed, that the Federals had put to death wounded Constitutionalists left lying on the field. One act of barbarism was reported from the American side of the river. A captured Constitutionalist was trussed with a rope to the tail of a wild horse, which then was sent plung ing across the plain dragging the body behind. The prisoner had been shot, but it was not known whether he was dead. Another report was that a wounded Constitutionalist, his arms tied behind his back and his knees tied to his body, was spitted on a pole and paraded in front of the federal lines. It was learned today that the fed erals are maintaining a vigilant border patrol on the Mexican side and that no Mexican citizen is permitted to cross the river. Firing; la Heavy. Firing during the forenoon was heavy, but the fighting- outside Nuevo Laredo seemed to be out of reach of prompt reports. One engagement was under way about two miles south of town, while another was three miles east. The rebels were also reported to have attacked a large supply of am munition intended for the federals. During the night the constitution alists threw up lntrenchments within 1000 yards of the federal lines south east of Nuevo Laredo. Before noon the federals directed a heavy fire at these breastworks. Four mines, which the federals had placed around the city in anticipation of attack, exploded, apparently harm lessly. Throughout the morning the advantage seemed to be with the at tacking party, but this turned later in the day. TV'hile estimates of the dead In the two days' fighting ran up to 500, the verified deaths were not much more than 200. SAX LUIS POTOSI MEXACED Number of Rebels Surrounding Town Reported at 5000. MEXICO CITT, Jan. 2. So rapidly has the number of rebels about. San Luis Potosi increased and so imminent does an attack on that city seem that freight traffic Into the city from the south over the only line open has been uspended. Telegraphic communica tion continues and reports from San Luis Potosi today said the rebels from the north and west were closing in on tho town and that small bands were menacing it from the east and south. Reports are current thn.t the troops at Monterey and Saltlllo have revolted, but there is no confirmation of this. Communication with both cities is cut off. Indications are that the rebel forces threatening San Luis Potosi are those led by Fulalla Gutierrez and Francisco Coss. They are supported by the Cedi ollo brothers, who for months have been operating along the railroad line from San Luis Potosi to Tampico. None of these has fought In the north. Private advices received here place the number of rebels about San Luis Potosi as high as 5000. The majority of them are at Boca, 23 miles north on the National Railways. The remainder - are along the railroad line extending westward from San Luis Potosi to Aguaa Calientes. General Romero, commanding the federal garrison at San Luis Potosi, has about 1000 men, well supplied with artillery and am munition. The campaign near San Luis Potosi appears to be independent of the one against Tampico, at which place the rebels have been brought down from Northern Tamaulipas. The capture of San Luis Potosi, be sides the wealth it would add to the rebel coffers, the city being perhaps . the second wealthiest in the republic, would seriously increase the embar rassment of the government, as it would effectually block the importation of oil by way of Tampico. Alarmed by the Increasing difficulty In obtaining oil, the management of the government railways, acting under government Instructions, Is busy con verting oil-burning engines Into coal burners. Owing to the scarcity of coal In the republic and the necessity of Importing it from the United States, railroad men see little hope of oper ating trains for any length of time ex cept In a limited sone. HTERTA'S PRISONERS FREED Judge Finds No Basis for Charge of Rebellion Against 2 6. MEXICO CITT, Jan. 2. Six former Mexican deputies,. Imprisoned by Pro visional President Huerta last October. were released from the penitentiary to day. This number does not Include Ro clolfo Reyes, former Minister of Jus tice, nor Jorge Vera Estanol, former Minister of Publlo Instruction. The Judge of the District Court, who had charge of the investigation, found that there was no basis for the accusa tion of rebellion. REBELS AWAIT A3IMTTNITION Troops' Under Ortega Fall Back Af ter Four Days Cannonading. PRESIDIO, Tex., Jan. 2. After can nonading the federal army at OJlnaga, Mex., for four days. General Ortega's rebel army today fell back. It was re ported on the American aide, to await the arrival of more ammunition from Chihuahua. So far' the losses have been heaviest on tlie rebel side, due to the federals' superior marksmanship. Federal de serters reported that they had fewer than 100 killed, with an unknown num ber of wounded. No Americans were permitted to cross the river and any thing like an accurate estimate was lacking. Few federal deserters attempted to reach the American side today. The wounded were cared for by the Red Cross. Dr. C. F. Braden. the Red Cross agent, reported that he had 60 wounded in the mission church. He telegraphed to Kl Paso that he thought the present medical force was sufficient. WILSON IS HELD IX EIUROR World Opinion to Force Intervention, London Paper Says. LONDON, 'Jan. 2. The Spectator In an article today on the Mexican situa tion, declares that the pressure of pub lic opinion in all the rest offhe world soon will force the Vnited States to Intervene in Mexico. The article points out that President "Wilson made a mis take in not assuming that President Huerta would be the strongest force with which to bring about peace in Mexico, and in supporting him accord ingly; but it adds that it understands perfectly the reasons why Mr. Wilson did not adopt such a course. "Instead." the article says, "he did what, with all respect, we must say, was the worst thing he could have done. He intervened and pretended not to be Intervening; he depreeated blood shed and anarchy and yet he would neither stop It himself nor let anyone else do so. The only way left for the United States was for themselves to restore order In Mexico." The Spectator believes that Joint ac tion by other powers with the United States in Mexico is impossible and that the United States will have to act alone or sacrifice the Monroe doctrine, which it is not likely to do. The article says that it would prove rather an easy conquest for the United States, but that conquest would be succeeded by a de mand for national Independence and accompanied by rebellion. The rebellion also would be sup pressed, but it would be followed by annexation to the United States of the northern states of Mexico and the in dependence of the remainder of the country under a treaty by which the Washington Government would control Mexico s foreign relations. The Spec tator thinks even this condition would not last long, and predicts that within 50 years one nation of 200,000,000 English-speaking people will extend from the Canadian border to the Panama Ca nal, with the exception of British Hon duras. UNION CONTRACT HOLDS STATU BOABD, HOWEVER, TCBXS XOW' "WAGE ADVANCE. State Printer's Contract With 111a Em ployes Looked Vpon as Personal. Treasurer Kay Objects. SALEM, Or.. Jan. 2. (Special. By a vol of two to one the State Printing Board today decided not to try to have abrogated the contract made by State Printer Harris with the Allied Printing Trades of this city providing that only union men should be employed In the state printing department and that the union label be used upon state printed matter. State Treasurer Kay Insisted that the Board had control over the State Printer, and that the contract was in violation of the law. He read several sections of the flat salary act, under which the department is b-ing gov erned, to show that the State Printer In matters of that kind was subject to the will of the Board. While declaring that he did not be lieve Mr. Harris should have entered into the contract with the union, but as he regarded it as largely a personal matter. Secretary of State Olcott said he did not favor action by the Board looking to the abrogation of the con tract. Governor West said-he believed the matter was a personal one with the State Printer. The Board by a majority vote decided to notify W. C. Francis, general mana. ger of the Employers' Association of Oregon, which has protested against the union contract, that It would take no action to annul it. By a unanimous vote the Board de clined to grant a general increase of 51.50 a week to all employes of the de partment as asked by the State Printer. The salary of one pressman was in creased from $18 to $19.50, another em ploye of the pressroom from $15.60 to $17.10 and another from $10.50 to $12. An Increase from $8 to $9 a week was granted the "printer's devil." REALTY MAN IS ARRESTED J. W. Adams Held at Astoria on Warrant From Portland. ASTORIA, Or., Jan. 2. (Special.) J. W. Adams, a real estate salesman of Portland, was taken in custody today by Sheriff Burns on a warrant Issued in Judge McGinn's court at Portland. The warrant was Issued on an execution in the case brought against Adams by Mrs. Elizabeth Scott for the recovery of $963.70, alleged to be due her. She recovered judgment by default several weeks ago. When the case was called by Judge McGinn, attorneys for Adams announced that they had advised their client that the case was set for trial, and that further continuance could not be secured.

ASHLAND, Or., Jan. 2. (Special.) As an Incentive to more diversified agriculture among Southern Oregon farmers, an application has been made to the Jackson County Court for an appropriation of $1300 to further the movement. The project is backed by an Influential delegation headed by R. D. Hetzel, director of extension of the state agricultural station, and Professor Reimer, of the Talent ex periment station, in this county. A new law provides for such an appro priatlon, and the County Court has the matter under advisement. CRISIS SEEN FOR PORTLAND AS PORT Postmaster Says Railways Are Aiding Seattle to City's Detriment. COMPARATIVE DATA GIVEN Realty Board Is Told How Columbia Gateway Is Avoided and Need of Independent Steamer Line Is 1'rged. That for mercenary reasons the rail roads do not want Portland to become a great port, and that Portland is now at a critical point In her development owing to lack of ocean commerce, were declarations made by Postmaster Frank S. Myers before the Portland Realty Board yesterday. "Not a steamer line that calls at Portland -but is controlled by the rail roads," he said, "and apparently the railroads are more interested in the hauling of freight originating at this port by rail to Seattle than they are in helping secure direct lines of steamers from Portland to Alaska and the Orient. "For example, when the "O.-W. R. & N. secured terminal and trackage at Seattle It discontinued its line of steamers between Portland and the Orient. The independent steamers have been driven off the Upper Columbia. The same thing happened on the Wil lamette to the complete eradication of the river traffic. The two steamer lines from Portland to Coos Bay ports are both" controlled by the railroads. The steamers of the former Oregon Rail road & Navigation Company from Port land that were In possession of the Alaska trade were bluffed out of busi ness by the Northern Pacific Steamship Company. Customs Receipts Decrease. According to figures given by Post master Myers the customs receipts at Portland were $1,163,856 at the close of the fiscal year, June 30, 1907, as compared to $684,191, including re ceipts at Astoria, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1913. "The value of imports at Seattle for the fiscal year 1913 was $51,476,733, a gain of $12,465,469 over 1912," said Postmaster Myers. "The imports for Portland for the fiscal year 1913 were only $2,787,965, showing a gain over 1912 of only $18,124." "Unless something is done to make Portland the city it should be, unless we wake up and secure a line of Inde pendent steamers to Alaska and the Orient, this city will become to Seattle what Sacramento is to San Francisco," he declared. "Why, only last July the salary of the Collector of Customs at "Portland was reduced from $6000 to $4500 a year. and that of the Collector at Seattle was raised from $4500 to $6000, solely be cause of the decrease of business here and the increase there. Postmaster Myers pointed out that the headquarters for the thirteenth di vision of the railway mail service was taken from Portland and given to Se attle a few years ago. This division comprises Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. "Growth Is Retarded." Tf we had maintained our line of steamers to Alaska when We had it a few years ago," he declared, "this city would now be 100,000 greater In popu lation than Seattle. One of Portland's great needs is a mail line to the Orient, said Mr. Myers. A subsidy for steamer lines was not favored, Mr. Myers preferring a plan whereby everybody who Is interested In the upbuilding of Portland shall con tract for a certain amount of ship space, and agree to pay for it whether it Is used or not. "This is the method by which Seattle built up her commerce," he said, "and this is the method that will work for us." "A committee should go" out and get such agreements from Portland ship pers, and that is all that is needed to make a line to Alaska profitable." Mr. Myers referred to the securing of the regional bank for Portland, urging immediate action, and compar ing Portland's apathy to the activity of Seattle. Municipal Judge Stevenson made an optimistic speech on "The Greater Portland," predicting great growth for the future. , The committee appointed by the Realty Board to investigate the Som mers system of property assessment re ported that It considered it too ex pensive to be adopted. PEACE NEGOTIATIONS ON CALUMET STRIKE SITUATION TAKES ON ENCOURAGING ASPECT. Government Agrent Confers With Lead ers on Both Sides Gompers Sends Personal Representatives. HOUGHTON, Mich., Jan. 2. Peace negotiations in the copper strike situ ation halted and swayed today. Fol lowing reports of an Important com munication from union sources early in the day, there was a series of con ferences between John B. Densmore, of ESTABLISHED 1780 1 III 13 I B&&U.3.PAT.OFF. Lis the Government Dpartment of Labor, and representatives of tne conflicting Interests. Mr. Densmore tonight said he still had hope of finding a way out of the difficulties and added that his hopes were higher than 24 hours be fore. He talked today with O. H. Hilton, representing the Western Federation of Miners, and Clarence O. Taylor, head of the Michigan State Federation, and then conferred with John Knox, gen eral superintendent, and Allen Rees. at torney for the Calumet & Hecla Min ing Company. Later Mr. Densmore met Grant Hamilton, of Washington, I. C, and James R. Roach, of Albany, N. Y., both officials of the American Federa tion of Labor. They told interviewers that they were sent to the strike scene by President Compere, who wished a report of conditions from persoral rep resentatives. Outside of these activities there was small surface indications of a tense strike situation. While this was sup posedly the last day on which the com panies were willing to take back any of their striking employes, there was manifest no disposition to force this aspect of affairs. Some applications for work in the Keweenaw country were received, the manager stating that enough had reached him to war rant a beief that he might resume op erations Monday. The company officials said they were willing to take back men who have had no part In promoting strike violences and have no Intention of -barring from re-employment men whose homes are well established In the mining com munities. At the same time they point ed out the company has waited five months for the "return to work" move ment to take full effect and they were Indisposed to jeopardize their Interests by further delays. It was confirmed, therefore, that the companies' plan Is to make fresh im portations of non-union men at an early date. PIONEER, 92, IS DEAD "GRANDMA" MARY STEWART, OF CORVALLIS, PASSES. Having; Crossed Plains With Ox-Team in 1848 She Was First White Woman In Home City. CORVALLI3, Or., Jan. 2. (Special.)

Until the past few months "Grandma" Stewart, as she .was familiarly known had been in robust health, active men tally and physically, and until the last her mind was alert. She was ever act ive In the growth and progress of the conmunity and though the marked changes of recent years were amazing to her, her interest was keen in all that was going on. She took great pleasure In riding in the first auto to cross the new steel bridge built across the Wil lamette here a year ago. The grandchildren, John Suvich and Mrs. C. E. Small, of this city, survive her. The funeral service will be held on Sunday at 2:30, at the home, and Inter ment will be In Crystal Lake cemetery. Lessee Loses Contention. SALEM, Or., Jan. 2.

Gates, lessee of The Dalles water works, that the State Railroad Commission is without Juris diction in the fixing of its rates, was overruled by the commission today.

GAMP PLAN PUSHED Rockpile for Idle Likely to Be Started Monday. SMALL WAGE TO BE PAID Commissioners Will Meet Today to Complete Arrangements for I n . stltution to Slake Tramps Work or Leave City. . Definite plans will be worked out today by members of the City Com mission for the establishment, probably Monday, of a municipal rockpile, where tramps and hobos now in the city will be put to work at a small wage. At a conference in the office of Mayor Al bee last night arrangements were par tially made for a rock camp at the head of Marquam Gulch, where the so-called unemployed of the homeless variety can be put to work breaking up rock for use in improving the north part of Terwilliger boulevard. This site has not been definitely settled upon as yet, members of the City Commission desiring to go over the various places which are available before deciding finally. It is the plan to establish the rockpile and require every idle man to report there for work or leave the city. A small wage will be paid In addition to the workers be ing given lodging and possibly meals. These features of the plan are to be decided upon today, the Commission having arranged for a special meet ing at 10 o'clock. The rockpile plan is aimed to curb what city officials believe to be a con certed effort on the part of other cities of the Northwest to drive the Pacific Coast's supply of tramps and . hobos to Portland. At present the men have an excuse for being idle or for beg ging on the streets. When the new plan goes into effect there will be no excuse and the police and Municipal Judge will have something to back up a general campaign to require the men to work or get out of the city. At a meeting of the Commission yes terday an appropriation of $500 was authorized for the purchase of blank ets for the use of the hobos at the temporary auditorium building. The blankets were obtained by Commission er Bigelow, who was placed In charge of the vork, and were sent to the auditorium last night. . Each man was given a pair of blankets. A commit tee has been appointed to see that the blankets are all returned to the city after each night's use. Policemen will be on hand to see that none Is carried away. In handling the situation. Com missioner Bigelow will co-operate with the Civic League. For the legitimate unemployed, com prising men of families or with de pendents, the city will keep up Its re lief labor plan. Arrangements were made yesterday by Commissioner Daly to issue $250,000 in 4 per cent 39-year municipal water bonds to raise money to keep the men going In the water department. They are engaged here in digging water trnches at $3 a day and are required to work. Idlers are kicked off the Job Immediately upon detection. These bonds, Mr. Daly said, would have to be issued in April, If not sooner, in order that the water Im provements can be carried along during the Spring and Summer months. In asmuch as the heavy work of the year Is being done now. Instead of during the Summer, other members of the City Commission backed Mr. Daly up in bis plan for the bond sale.
