ington. Jan. 10. On January 1, 1914,
"William Jennings Bryan had held the
office of Secretary of State In President
Wilson's Cabinet exactly 300 days. Pre
cisely one-fourth of that time, or -75
days. Secretary Bryan had been away
from Washington, delivering Chautau
qua lectures for cash, speaking at ban
quets, campaigning in Maine, Maryland
and New Jersey, or seeking rest on
what he termed short "vacation trips."
Fourteen days of the 75, however, were
consumed in the trip to California last
(Spring, when the President, through
Secretary Bryan, sought to dictate to
the California Legislature regarding Its
Japanese land bill.
On the first day of the New Year, Sec
retary Bryan left his post at Washing
ton to make a 12-day speaking tour
through the West, and what his future
plans for 1914 may be have not yet
been announced.
Leave Far Overstayed.
Government employes, Including of
ficials, are entitled to 30 days leave
each year, but Secretary Bryan, hav
ing entered the State Department
March 5, was entitled only to 25 days,
lie deserted his desk just three times
as long as was his legal right.
The absenteeism of Secretary Bryan
Is the more noteworthy because of the
fact that the Administration has been
confronted with unusually troublesomo
diplomatic problems ever since Mr.
Bryan became Secretary of State. The
Mexican situation alone has been of
such seriousness as to require the close
and continued attention of the head of
the State Department It is a fact that
Secretary Bryan has personally paid
less attention to the affairs of state
than any man who'has occupied his of
fice in recent times, and the bulk of the
diplomatic work of the State Depart
ment has been handled by Solicitor
Kolk, by Assistant Secretary Malone
and by Counselor Moore. A great por.
tion of Secretary Bryan's time whert in
Washington has been given over to
politics, and he has been busy finding
Jobs for good Democrats, especially
those who stood by him in the years
when he himself was the Democratic
nominee for President.

Bryan, up to January 1, 1914, has been

Hazel Marie Brown Becomes
Bride of Ralph Earle.

lit Seattle Public Park.
A real romance of the "movies" is
that of Hazel Marie Brown, late of 3519
South L. street, Tacoma, and Ralph
Earle, whoso work in the "movie" busi
ness has taken him all over America.
Miss Brown and Earle were married
at Seattle yesterday and arrived, in
Portland last night, registering at the
Hotel Oregon.
Ralph Earle first saw Hazel Brown
at Tacoma in July. 1912. He had
placed his cineamatograph on the dock
to get a film of the initial event of Ta-
coma's great annual festival, the arri
val of the King and Queen.
Haze Brown was the Queen and
when she came into close view of the
cheering thousands on the dock the
young man at the clicking picture ma
chine almost forgot to turn the crank.
He didn't know who she was. but he
made up his mind, with the promptness
of decision necessary to his business.
that he would make her Mrs. Earlo.
Yesterday at Seattle, in a beautiful
spot in one' of the city parks, Hazel
Brown faced another moving-picture
machine, but Ralph Earle was not the
operator. He was by her side, and
some time before the machine ceased
clicking he was her husband.
The affair is said by friends to have
been an elopement, and at the Hotel
Oregon last night Mrs. Earle admitted
that her parents "didn't know about it."
Mr. and Mrs. Earle will make their
home In San Francisco, although Mr.
Earle proposes to continue his work as
"editor" of the "Pathe Weekly." Last
night there was a telegram waiting for
him telling him to go to the Jackson's
Ho'e country of Wyoming to get pic
tures of the elk herds.
There were other telegrams, but
these were of congratulation. Among
the long-distance well-wishers were
Samuel Hill, president of the Home
Telephone Company, and L. AV. Hill, of
the Great Northern.
Gifts of flowers had been placed in
the room that had been engaged for
Mr. and Mrs. Earle. W llliam Hanley,
on whose ranch Mr. Earle took pic
tures last Summer, sent red and white
rosebuds: W. T. Norton, local manager
of the General Film Company, sent
chrysanthemums; J. C. Potter, of the
Home Telephone Company, red carna
tions; L. C. Gilman, president of the
Spokane, Portland & Seattle, pink car
nations, and J. H. Joyce, manager of
the Hazelwood restaurant, a box of
candy.
Lloyd McDowell, publicity agent of
the Great Northern, also sent flowers,
and arranged the reception for Mr. and
Mrs. Earle.
The film of the wedding, which was
performed by Judge Carroll, of Seattle,
is expected to arrive here today.
roads and took the Missouri railroad
rate case under advisement for three
weeks. The overcharges, the state
contends, were made during the life of
the Federal Court injunctions prevent
ing enforcement of the Missouri maxi
mum freight and 2-cent passenger fare
laws. The United States Supreme
Court Tecently held the laws constitu
tional and ordered Judge McPherson to
dissolve the injunctions preventing
their enforcement.
Judge McPherson's action followed an
exciting day in court, in the course of
which Mr. Barker demanded that the
judge dismiss the injunctions "without
further delay and made a vitriolic at
tack on Judge McPfterson, shouting in
the midst of it:
"You cannot continue to police this
state for the railroads."
Judge McPherson listened to the at
tack in silence. At the end of it the
judge said:
"In my 13 years on . the Federal
bench I have never been Informed by
anyone or anything except by con
science. While I would like the good
opinion of all men, I prefer the opinion
of my own conscience. I shall not be
swerved from the dictates of my con
science by any bouquets or brickbats."
Attorney-General Barker said after
court he did not know whether Judge
McPherson's injunction was binding on
him or not.

Reports at the cannery meeting

cent more for their product than ever
before, and in addition cleaned up the
products of their orchards and berry
patches, a condition that never before
existed. Marketing was conducted in

VILLA CAPTURES 0J5NAGA
(Continued From First Face.)
unless his men ran short of ammunition.
He kept his word. For six days, end
ing last Sunday, he had fought pluckily
against terrible odds. The rebels fired
more than 1,000.000 rounds into the
federal trenches without avail. It was
not until Villa, now the military head
of the revolution, but once a bandit, ap
peared on the scene, that the reverse
came for the federals.
Mercado Begrs for Asylum.'
General Villa arrived in the vicinity
of Ojinaga only a few days ago. His
presence, together with the clncidence
that the federals had only 50 rounds
of ammunition left for each man,
seemed to take from the federal gen
erals, their last vestige of hope.
The weird scene in the moonlight,
while the horde of- rebels was pouring
into Ojinaga and the federals were
rushing out in disorder, was the more
pathetic when General Mercado, an old
campaigner of many revolutions, .ap
peared at the river bank and informed
an orderly of the United States Army
that he wished asylum in a foreign
country. He was, taken at once to
Major McNamee, the commanding
officer, who held him pending orders
from Brigadier-General Bliss.
Major McNamee was convinced at a
late hour that many of the federal sol
diers had not succeeded In reaching
United States territory, but had scat
tered on the Mexican side and probably
would come over later If they were not
captured by the rebels.
Cavalry May Have Escaped.
A later report received by Major
McNamae was that the federal cavalry,
composed of 700 men, did not cross to
the American side, but probably suc
ceeded in getting into the interior of
Mexico.
Despite the report that General Oroz
co crossed to this side at a remote point
and escaped to the Texas mountains
near here, Major McNamee also was
Informed that Orozco and General In
Salazar had remained with their cav
alry and possibly had not crossed.
Orozco and Salazar are under Federal
indictment in this country for -violation
of the neutrality laws. Orozco was
prominent in the Madero revolution, but
later started a revolution against Ma
dero when the latter became President.
With the exception of those wounded
or killed the federal garrison was com
posed of 4000 soldiers- The escape of
700 cavalry would leave 3300 soldiers
to be accounted for.
How many of these crosssed or where
they are Major McNamee said he prob
ably would not learn until daylight.
Victorious Army Merry.
The border patrol was ordered to re
main out all night rounding up the
federal refugees. -
In the little adobe village on the
Mexican sldo at midnight there reigned
among the victorious forces a scene
of merriment. Fires were built, mu
sic was heard and crowds of tho rebel
soldiers, still grimy with the smoke
of battle, surrounded General Villa.
This man, who six months ago
entered the revolution in obscurity
and with nothing more than a bor
rowed revolver, but who later cap
tured Juarez, opposite Kl Paso, and
then occupied Chihuahua, a city of
35,000 population, was hailed as a
leader destined to depose Huerta. It
is understood that as soon as he clears
from the bolder any possible remain
ing fugitives from Ojinaga, General
Villa will return to Chihuahua, and
there resume his plans for carrying
the fight southward into the heart of
the republic.
threatened by Villa with death should
they be captured.
Desert Flight In Vain.
The downfall of the Huerta govern
ment In this vast section of Mexico
was preceded by a series of dramatic
incidents. Just six weeks ago tomor
row General Salvador Mercado, with his
4000 federal troops, evacuated Chihua
hua City, the capital of the state of that
name.
His flight across the desert to Ojin
aga, where he hoped to replenish his
food supply and ammunition, required
almost a week. He was accompanied
by many rich Mexican families, among
them Luis Terrazas, one of the most
extensive landholders in the world, who
feared violence at the bands of the
rebel forces.
The night of Mercado with his army
drew forth at that time a belief that
Ultimately he would be forced across
the Rio Grande and seek safety in the
United States. How soon the retreat
to foreign soil was to follow could'
hardly be conjectured, but it was
known that his troops were discour
aged, without pay for many months and
hopeless of ever defeating the growing
revolutionary movement. They also
were short of ammunition.
Money Cornea, but No Bullets.
Appeals to Mexico City brought
money to pay the troops, but they could
not overcome the impossibility of get
ting more ammunition through the
United States.' v
On this little hilltop of Ojinaga, in
an obscure border village, 67 miles from

a last desperate stand.
