TROOPS A Brief Resume of Proceeding« of the People'« Representatives Assailant Quickly Driven Off and Four Killed. Negro Soldiers Rush Into Battle, Barked by Citizens and Cow­ boy« Boundary Crowed. Douglas, Ariz.—For nearly hulf an hour Sunduy morning a force of 60 Mexican soldiera cngug<«l 16 United State« troo)>era of the Ninth cavalry, under Lieutenant Michaelson, on thu international boundary lino here until probably six of the Mexican« hud been killed, several wounded and troop« E and F, of the Ninth cavalry, arrived to reinforce the handful of American«. ItejHirta of the casualties differ, Home running an high iih «lx Mexicans killed and other« giving only four an the definite number of dead. Four American army officers, walk­ ing on the American lino three mile« from Douglas, were fired on by 60 reg­ ular Mexican soldiers patrolling the border out of Agua I’rieta, op|K>site Douglas. Sixteen of the negro troop­ ers of the Ninth rushed to the place of the firing, and a spirited skirmish en­ sued. Thu American soldiers are holding their position at thu international line, reinforced by two troops of the Ninth. The Mexicans were routed, leaving four killed on the field and others struggling through the brush nursing their wound«. It is «aid that the American troops became so excited that they overstepped the boundary an>l pursued the Mexicans for some distance. The fight caused great excitement at Douglas. The townspeople armed themselves and rushed to the bound­ ary, believing that the Mexican sol­ dier« were intending to Invade the United States. Within a few mo­ ments hundreds of citizens were at the place, urmed and ready. Cowboys rushed in from nearby ranches. City officials of Douglas in commu­ nication with state officials in Phoen­ ix, immediately after the fight, de­ clared the negro troops had killed six of their op|M>nents and urges! the Statu department to use every effort to pro­ tect the lives of Americans on thia aide of the border. LENIENCY SHOWN TO HEIKE Sugar Trust Official la Relieved of Prison Sentence. Washington. D. C. President Taft has commuted the fine and costs, the sentence of Charles R. Heike, secre­ tary und treasurer of the American Sugar liefining company, of eight months in the New York county |H-ni- tentiary und a fine of $5000. Heike was convicted of conspiracy to defraud the United States in effect­ ing entry of dutiable sugar at less than its true cost. The president ucted upon the recom­ mendation of Attorney General Wick- ersham. l*a|M>rs in the case were file«! with the department showing that Heike, who hud not begun to serve his sentence, was suffering from a complication of diseases of the heart, kidney and lungs. To remove him from his home, it wns urged, would endanger his life. British Suffragettes Mobbed. London The public temper is rising against the surffagettes. Wild scenes were witnessed Sunday afternoon in Hyde Park when a mob of several thousand broke up a suffragette meet­ ing held under the leadership of ''Gen­ eral” Mrs. Flora Drummond. Several free fights occurred and masses of turf torn from the ground were hurled at the speakers. It -required a strong Isxly of police to protect the suffra­ gettes ami escort them to a place of safety. Similar scenes marked a meeting at Wimbledon common. In both cases women were knocked down and bruised. Drinkers Yield Surplus. Washington, D. C.—The booming of customs receipts and the record drink­ ing and smoking of Americans, yield­ ing enormous internal revenue, hnve given the Federal government a sur­ plus of $7,379,000 for the current fis­ cal year as compareti with n deficit of $20,570,000 a year ago. Total re­ ceipts for February reached $54,903,- 000, from which was expended $52,- 839,000. The working balance which the Democratic administration finds in the treasury, is indicateti by the state­ ment, will be alaiut $78,000,000. Ernesto Madero Worried. Ithaca, N. Y.—Some concern is felt over the condition of mind of Ernesto Madero, the Cornell student and broth­ er of the late President of Mexico. After engaging railroad transportation to New York last week with the Inten­ tion of going to meet his family in Havana, it is lenrned he remained here in the care of friends. He was deeply affected by the tragic deaths of his brothers. It is now thought young Madero will go to Havana. Italiana Repulse Arahs.
