CHIHUAHUA FORCES ELUDED
Hearst Ranch at Bablcora Said Not
to Have Been Confiscated, but
Cattle Are "Detained" to
Prevent Exportation.
CHIHUAHUA CITY. July V. Sev
eral scattered groups of Villistas have
eluded the cordon of government troops
which surrounded them in the Rio
Florido bottoms and have reassembled
at Tinajas and Las Escobas on the road
to OJinaga and are making: their way
north with the object of making- an
other raid on the American border, ac
cording to confidential advices to Gen
eral Jacinto Trevino today.
The advices, which cams froirf Santa
Rosalia, said the outlaws skirted Chi
huahua City by traveling in small
uroups to the little settlements north
east of here.
General Trevino Immediately ordered
the commanders of the garrisons at
Ojinaga and Piedras Negras to throw
troops out in an attempt to intercept
the bandits, whose numbers were esti
mated at about 200. He pointed out.
however, that the nature ot tne Ter
rain Is such that some of the outlaws
might evade the government troops and
suggested that it would be well for
military authorities on the American
side of the frontier to be especially
vigilant.
Italnr Season Aids Bandits.
"Wlfn the advent of the rainy sea
son," he said, "the abundant water sup
ply makes it easy for small bands to
deviate from the beaten roads and old
water holes. However, the Mexican
troops will do everything they can to
prevent the bandits from reaching the
American border."
Francisco I Trevino, civil governor
of Chihuahua, announced today that
he had investigated the reported seiz
ure of the Hearst ranch at Babicora,
and had determined, he said, that the
property was not confiscated, but that
the "cattle were merely detained to
prevent the possibility of their being
moved across the border without pay
ing duty."
Reports from General Luis Herrera
at Parral today indicated quiet In that
district. General Matlas Ramos has
not yet engaged the main Villa band,
which is announced in the Rio Florido
district, he eaid. but is pressing them
closely.
Carransa Receives Accessions.
Generals Jose Isabel Robles, Canuto
Reyes and Hilario Rodriguez left today
for San Luis Potosi, where they have
been ordered to incorporate into the
de facto army the Cidillo brothers and
their followers, who recently received
amnesty. i
SAN ANTONIO. Tex., July 17. Eight
thousand guardsmen now at Laredo
will be moved back from,, the border to
one of the smaller towns on the rail
road connecting Laredo and Sah An
tonio, unless General Funston alters
his plans, announced today. Citizens of
Laredo recently sent to Texas members
of Congress a telegraphic protest
against the insanitary condition of the
camp, calling attention to the limited
supply of water. This protest reached
General Funston, who admitted that
better conditions might be found.
The regular troops will be left at
Laredo, with a small detachment of the
guards, but he said he would move
most of the 8000 away from the town.
fesced slaver of L. J. Eggers near
Durkee last Tuesday, was bound over
today by Justice of the Peace L. Hub
bard to the Grand Jury on the charge
of second degree murder. He will be
held in jail without bail until October,
when the Grand Jury will probably
meet. Hopkins was extremely nervous
during the hearing. When a bullet
found in Eggers" back was produced
the youth's eyes protruded and his
face became deathly pale as he watched
every move, while Dr. O. M, Iodson
told of examining the body to find a
bullet wound In the arm and another
through the breast to the back.
Claude Luster, a. fellow sheepherder.
testified he heard only one shot and
Hopkins had previously -confessed to
firing only one, officials say. Hopkins
did not present any testimony today.

which has been notorious in the past,
is a thing of the past, according to

Oregon Orator Brines Seattle Crowd to
Its Feet by Wavtn- Green Flag
and Landing Star, and Stripes. -
SEATTLE. Wash., July 17. (Special.)
Defense of Irish-American hyphenism
was the undercurrent of an eloquent
address last night before an audience
of 1500 at the Metropolitan Theater
by Judge P. H. D'Arcy, of Salem,
Or. The meeting was under the
auspices of the Seattle branch -of the
Friends of Irish Freedom and the
speaker dealt with present conditions
in Ireland. At the conclusion a col
lection for the relief of Irish sufferers
was taken. Judge D'Arcy spoke on the
"Rights, Hopes and Aspirations of a Pro
gressive People," and prior to his main
address sketched the history of Ire
land from 402 A. D. to the recent exe
cution of Irishmen following the fail
ure of the "Republic of Ireland" move
ment.
Three times the crowd came to its
feet during his talk, once in silent tea
timony of regard for the Irishmen who
were ordered executed this year, again
when Judge D'Arcy ' drew from' his
breast pocket the green flag of Ire
land, and finally when, at the con'
elusion of his speech, he paid a glowing
triDute to tne American Stars and
Stripes.
In speaking of the relation existing
oetween Ireland and England today,
in which he 6aid that England Is still
displaying tne same stupidity in deal.
lng witn tne Irish question that was
displayed by Cromwell, Judge D'Arcy
said that the greatest part of the pres
ent trouble in Ireland is not due to
religion, but to the efforts on the part
oi tngiano to rurtner her trade in
terests.
Judge D'Arcy, in his opening re
marks, claimed a record as a pioneer
of Oregon. He eald that for more than
60 years he has lived on lot one, block
one, ward one and precinct one in
balem. Or.
TAX PLAYS FAVORITES
COPPER CLASSED AS "MUNITIONS,
SOUTHERN PRODUCTS ESCAPE.
Cotton and Zinc, 'Which Also Play Im
portant Part In Wit Profits, Not
Expected to Par Share.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, July 18. The Democrats of the
House of Representatives have consid
erately paved the way for Republican
victory in Montana and Arizona at the
election next November and made cer
tain the retirement of the one Demo
cratic Representative from Utah. Tbey
probably also contributed slightly
toward Republican success in Colorado.
This was done by the inclusion In
the Kitchin revenue bill of a para
graph imposing heavy taxes on copper
producers and smelters. This was done
or the same theory that the manufac
turers of munitions are taxed in the
Kitchin bill, the ways and means com
mittee having considered that 'copper
should be classed with munitions.
Why, if this was the theory. Congress
did not go further and tax steel, lead,
zinc and cutton. all of which' enter
extensively into the manufacture of
munitions, was not told, but It Is easy
to learn. . Zinc ,comes largely from
Missouri. Likewise, cotton is a product
of the South. As to steel, it is more
difficult to determine why it was over
looked, unless out of respect. to Sena
tor Underwood, whose state Is now a
large steel producer.
SAN TSIDRO. ' CaL. July 13 (Spe
cial.) Yesterday was the last full day
here at San Tsidro for the Third Bat
talion. It was a very full day. too. In
fact, the big work started last night.
and there has been plenty doing ever
since. '
About 10 o'clock P. M. there was a
Mexican attack. At least, that was
what the officers said. The whistles
blew and everyone was ordered to turn
out In double time. Now. an alarm
call of this kind, even a test one, is
calculated to turn a camp upside down
about as thoroughly as can be. Of
course, everyone was asleep. Suffice It
to say that it required something short
or six minutes for the four companies
to assemble with arms and equipment
at the allotted assembly places for the
vanqus organizations.
Armed and eauiDDed. ves: but not
'dressed according to Hoyle. Rouse eight
men in each squad tent In a rush and
give them a couple of minutes to find
their guns, shoes and ammunition belt
and. of course, in the flurry little Items
like . trousers, leggings and shirts are
apt to be overlooked. Several score of
them were last night. Any attacking
Mexicans would have been startled by
the ghostly white figures of the minute
men assembled In trouserless ranks to
repel their attack. Some of the sprint
ers declare that hereafter when alarm
calls -come safety first." or. at least.
'trousers first" will be their slogan.
With the. memories of the night at
tack still fresh In mind, and some of
tne tnistle burs still embedded, the bat
talion was given further active duty
today.
Theoretical Foe Annihilated. ,
After the troops had drilled an hour
Major Abrams announced to the offi
cers that the long-expected invasion
Dy tne Mexicans had come. In fact,
enemy troops had been located at a
certain point a couple of miles back of
camp. It was up. to the battalion to
proceed against this theoretical attack.
Until after noon the companies sweated
at their allotted tasks, and it is safe
to say that the enemy was not only
repulsed, but practically annihilated
after the thin lines of olive drab had
closed about him, advancing by rushes
in. skirimsh formation and firing thou
sands of theoretical shots with perfect
theoretical accuracy. When the recall
sounded 300-odd men marched back to
camp after the biggest dose of prac
tical training under simulated war con
ditions we have yet had. Also, there
was exercise a-plenty. Altogether it
was a morning such as many morn1
ings might be if we see active service
to the south. Only then there would
be no theory and no play in It. Mis
takes and loafing would cost more
than a reprimand from the Captain or
top" sergeant.
The early part of the afternoon, aa
usual, was devoted to school for non
commissioned officers and men. and the
remainder of the time until mess to the
countless odd Jobs of a last flay before
moving camp.
Many went down to the border to
have a last look, or perhaps a first
look, at Mexico at close range. The
big monument marking the boundary
is but a few hundred yards from the
race track at Tia Juana. and from the
hillside we could see half of the track
and at least the start of some of the
races. As I've written before, soldiers
are forbidden to cross the line under
all sorts of dire penalties.
"Gringo" Dollars Welcome.
But civilians do. In fact, there is
a steady stream of American humanity
pouring down from San Diego to the
races, the gambling and the other al
lurements of the Mexican community
It is gossip that soon even clvllans will
not be permitted to cross the border.
If that is true, a howl of protest will
arise from those who are fattening on
the "gringo" dollars south of the
boundary. We are told that the Mexl-
fcan soldiers get $1.10 a day (about
twice as much as their Yankee brothers
draw down) and presumably It will
be some problem to get the wherewithal
for their wages if the Tia Juana reve
nuea and the resulting rakeoffs to the
officals are shut down.
While things are going smoothly and
everyone across the border is making
good money and there is cash for the
officials and cash for the soldiers, our
friends in Lower California have no de
sire for war. That "would spoil the
whole party for them. But suppose
their Incomes are cut off. Will they
see things in the same light?
There has been an important addition
to the personnel of the Third Battalion.
I'm uncertain whether or not he is car
Hed on the official rolls, but he should
be. His name is "Glory." At least,
I think it will be. -There is still some
uncertainty, and formal christening is
yet awaited. "Mei" is an alternative
title.
Goat la Popular Mascot,
Glory young glory, of course it
goat. More properly, he is a kid and
of tender years, or rather days, because
he first gazed upon the beauties of the
border only a couple of weeks ago.
His arrival was contemporaneous with
that of the Third Battalion, although
there was no connection between the
two events. Glory is black. Jet black,
from stem to stern and soft little nose
to rangy feet. Glory Is a confirmed
slave ot the bottle. The way he takes
condensed milk from a soda pop bottle
via the only rubber nipple that could
be located in San Tsidro is a caution
to the race suicldists. Glory is the
mascot of Company M. of Salem, al
though members of the organization
declare It really doesn't need a mascot.
Anyway, no one has got its goat thus
far.
The big event of the evening was a
burlesque guard mount. Suffice to say
that it was rich, and the peculiarities,
vocal and physical, of several officers
who officiate at the regular mounts
were "taken off" in a way that created
a -tumult of fun. Even the victims.
who viewed the Impromptu spectacl
from a distance, seemed to get thel
share of enjoyment from the good,
natured "Josh" poked at them.

NEW YORK BELIEVES INFANT FA.
- RAL.YSIS UNDER CONTROL
Quarantine .Extended on Discovery
rkat Incubation Period Is) Longer
Than at First ThouKht.
NEW YORK. July 17. The epidemic
of infantile paralysis here has been
checked. In the opinion of Health Com
missioner Emerson, who Issued a state
ment tonieTht inwhlch he said the
diminution in the number of new cases
and deaths Indicated that the health
authorities. are reaching the cases ear
ner and are finding a way to control
them.
Mayor Mltchel Issued a statement
assuring persons who might have post
poned visits to the city because of fear
of the disease that the danger of con
tracting it is almost nil. lie said the
proportion of new cases is slight when
compared with the city s population
and expressed the belief that the "high
curve . of the epidemic had been
passed.
Fifty thousand postcards' have been
received from Washington to be mailed
to health authorities in different states
where New Yorkers take their chil
dren. The cards are to be filled in
with information regarding the chil
dren who travel.
The Board of Health extended from
one to two weeks the quarantine on
families in which infantile paralysis
patients have died or recovered. The
department, it was said, had found
that the period of incubation Is longer
than at first believed. Nine moving
picture theaters in the epidemic
stricken section of South Brooklyn
which had been closed were allowed
to resume business today. '

BROWN INTERPRETS LAW
Attorney-General Holds Tliero Is No
ConHlct Between Present Law
and Measure for Manu
facture of Beer.
RlLfM. Or.. July 17. (Special.)
Negative votes only will insure the de
feat of the proposed concitltutlonal
amendment to allow the manufacture
of 4 Der cent beer In Oregon, Attorney-
General Brown today advised the Ore
gon Prohibition State Committee, in
case both the beer amendment and the
amendment prohibiting the importation
of intoxicating liquors into Oregon
should pass, the Attorney-General
boMa that a larger affirmative vote for
the dry measure will not necessarily
mean the annulment of the other.
The statement of Attorney-General
Brown is in correction of one made by
the Prohibition State Committee in
which the committee declared that the
Attorney-General had said that tne
one (measure) which secures t.ne lar
gest vote will automatically annul the
other."
Prohibition Committee) Emu -
The committee further asserted that
the Attorney-General had said tnat
the new dry amendment is an amena-
ment to the amendment now in opera
tion, and not a eubstltute, ana in
cludes by reiteration the manufacture
and sale as already provided for, as
well as adding the Important clause.
Replying to the committee" pro
fessed quotation of his interpretation
of the effect of the two proposed
amendments. the Attorney - General
says the committee is in error, and
explains his position as follows:
"Your proposed constitutional amend
ment forbidding the importation of ln-
toxicatina- liauons for beverage pur
poses is an amendment 'extending the
existing constitutional provision re
lating to the prohibition of the manu
facture and sale oi intoxicating imuor
by also prohibiting the importation of
Intoxicating liquors for beverage pur
poses,' and Is not a re-enactment of
section 36, article 1.
Affirmative Vote Useless.
"Section S77. Lord's Oregon Laws,
provides: "If two or more conflicting
amendments to the constitution shall
be approved by the people at the same
election, the amendment which receives
the greatest number of affirmative
votes shall be paramount' In all par
ticulars as to which there Is a conflict,
even though such amendment may not
have received the greatest majority of
affirmative votes.'
"A comparison of the two will show
that there is no conflict as to manu
facture and exportation, and a question
of construction would arise whether.
If adopted, both may operate together,
though 1 do not wish to be understood
as expressing or supporting this view.
"Therefore If you would defeat the
4 per cent malt liquor amendment, and
especially In Its entirety, it must be by
negative votes and not by a conflict
between the' two measures and a lar
ger affirmative vote for the dry meas
ure." ARGUMENT OP DRTS ' FILED
Brewers Measure Is Scored by Pro
hibition Committee.
SALEM. Or.. July 17. (Special.)
Passage of the amendment to prohlDit
the importation of liquor Into Oregon
for beverage purposes would be "the
most effective rebuke to the Impudent
attempt of the brewers to restore the
saloon under the guise of solicitude for
the commercial Interests of the state.
Is the assertion of the Oregon" Pro
hibition State Committee In its argu
ment filed with the Secretary of State
in behalf of the measure advocated
by the dry forces.
"The amendment forbidding the im
portation should be adopted for several
rea-sons." reads the argument.
"First The ease with which liquors
may be imported into prohibition states
has always been one of the chief ob
stacles to the enforcement of pro
hibitory laws. The rapid increaso of
importations Indicates that the ex
perience of Oregon will not be differ
ent from that of other states.
"Second The present law Is undemo
cratic In its workings. The people or
weelth can obtain liquor with little
trouble, but the opportunity Is not so
readily available to the man. of average
means.
"Third The money spent for liquor
Is all taken out of the state and In its
place we receive only that which In
jures the community."
