The latest development of tho cleaning out of government grafters from
the New York custom house by Collector of the Port William Loeb, Jr., Is
said to show that the tobacco trade, like thnt of tho sugar manufacturerH,
has been getting tho best of tho government for many years. The removal
of a dozen employees Is expected, including one of tho highest olllclals In the
customs department, who may also face an Indictment charging criminal con
spiracy. It 1h asserted that tho passing through of tobacco from Cuba Iiiih
cost the United States fK.OOO.OOO annually, chiefly In Cuban wrapper stock.
Trade statistics show that makers of puro Havana cigars must hnvo (1 per
cent of their stock In wrappers, whereas tho treasury department figures
show a fraction under 1 per cent of the Cubnn Importations paying duty nH
wrapper tobacco.
SOCIALISTS NOT
TJHlFFFUBK
So Says Victor Bcrgcr In Statement
to United Press Consider Tariff
Bill an Invention of the Devil, i. c.
Mammon.
i
MILWAUKI3I3, "VVIb., Feb. 7. Tho
position of tho socialist party on the
tariff question nnd his own personal
views on tho problem of tho increas
ed cost of living woro given today in
a Btatoment to tho United Press by
Victor Horger, congrcssmnn-olect
from tho Fifth Wisconsin district, tho
first member of his party over elect
ed to tho national house.
(HY VICTOR UWROIOH.)
(Copyright, 11)11, by tho United
Press. )
Socialists a io surely not friends nt
"high tariff." Thoy conBldor It nn
Invention of, tho capitalists, ot tho
dovll, of Mammon. Wo know It Is
benefiting tho manufacturer, but we
nlso know It is not protecting tho
worklngmuu.
It Is ridiculous, however, to blame
tho tariff for tho high cost of living.
It Is only oho of tho factors In tho
problem. Another factor Is tho com
mission of agriculturists and farm
ers' associations, which tiro limiting
tho output of wool, tobacco, cotton,
etc. Those assocliitlotiH may not be
trusts In tho ordinary acceptance of
tho term, but the offoct of their
agreements Is Just as suioly a factor
in tho constantly rising prices of no-
coseltios.
One way toward curbing tho up
ward tendency of prices of all food
stuffs would bo to put u tux on uvory
thlng exported as was done In olden
times. Hut of courso tho farmers
would object to that."

Seize of Juarez Now Lies in Wait

REPORT OUT THAT RED
CROSS FLAG FIRED UPON
If Present Plans of Rebel General Do
Not Fall Success of Revolu
tions Is Assured.
EL PASO, Texas, Feb. 7. Aban
doning for tlio present his plans to
enpturo Juarez, General Orozco, tho
robel leader is bcliovcd hero today
to ho preparing to meet, and if pos
sible to crush General Navarro, who
with 700 men is marching to tho ro
liof of Juarez from tlio South.
Orozco's forco, it is snid, is now
located near Sainalayuca, 25 milus
from Juarez, and the chances of an
ntttiok in this section nro bcliovcd to
bo remote, at least until Navarro has
been mot. It is reported Hint part
of Orozco's plan is to form n junc
1 lion with sovornl bands of insurgents
who hnvo been harassing tho federals
near Corralitos. If this junction is
offectcd, Orozco will then out num
ber Navarro by two to ono, nnd vic
tory should bo ensy.
Criticism of Orozco, which was
free hero when tho siege of Juarez
was apparently nbnndoned, is today
silent iu the fnco of tho now turn
affairs havo tnkou and it is goner
ully bcliovcd by adherents of tho in
siirroutos that his course has been
tho wisest possible With Navarro
defeated, if Orozco can compass
that attempt, thoro will bo no other
government forco of importance in
Chihuahua and there is littlo doubt
Hint a now march on Juarez will end
iu nn ensy, possibly a bloodless vic
tory. Sccuro in tho boliof that there will
be no fighting at Juarez for somo
dnys at least, most of tho natives of
tlio city who last week fled across
tho Amoricnn frontior, nro toduy re
turning to their homes nnd celebrat
ing witli much drinking their cscapo
from bombardment. The city of
Juarez, howovor, is still under mur
tiul law.

of such nn event, provisional officials

an advance m Chihuuhiiii mid thou
on Mexico City would follow. It is ho
liovcd hero that Gonorul Orozco will
return shortly to tho nttnek on
Juarez. His delay is said to havo
boon caused by tho failuro of addi
