CAPTURES EMADA Forty Deaths Are Said to Have Ocurred in the Federal Gar rison During the Last Ten Days or Two Weeks. IN MOST VIRULENT FORM ..x, l . ! This Condition May Account for the Rebels Not Attacking the City It Is Thought the Disease Was Car- j ricd to the Plat by Soldiers IU-"-cently Kent From the Suth No Direct In format ion Is Obtain able. San Diego, Cal., April 7. Small pox in its most virulent form Is re ported at Ensenada, in Lower Call, fornla. Forty deaths are said to have occurred in the Mexican feder al prison. No information about the plague has come direct to San Diego, the first reports to this city coming from Calexlco. These reports suggest that the rebels at Alamo have refrained from attacking Ensenada for that reason. San Diegans have been puzled for , more than a week over the great mystery that Is being made about the number of troops at Ensenada. Heretofore the cuartel there was al ways open to Inspection, and anyone could count the soldiers. Of late the soldiers have been penmed up and no one has been able to say any thing definite about the force avail-, able to defend the town from Inva sion by the rebels. It Is thought that the Mexican troops who recently arrived from the south brought the epidemic with them. Dr. McKay, the quarantine officer for the port of San Diego, has not been officially informed of the situation, although a large steamer from Mazatlan, touching at Ensena da, is due here tomorrow.

That the in surgents are preparing for an Imme diate attack upon the city of Chihua hua is reported by travelers who ar rived here from that city, which is menaced by an insurrecto force un der the personal command of Fran cisco Madero. The arrivals declare that the citi zens of Chihuahua are urging Gover nor Ahumada to compel the federal troops to engage the rebels In the open country and thus prevent the sacrificing of the ljves of women and children, which would be certain to accompany an ttack on the city.

They pushed a hand car loaded with their goods and children the whole 225 miles from Chihuahua. All the women declare that when the insurgents attack the city hundreds of Chihauhuans will at once desert the federal side and Join forces with Madero. Socialists Aid Rebels. San Francisco, April 7.

In answer to the appeal four men each promised to equip one recruit (Continued from Page 1.) ATTACKS PRESIDENT LA FOLLKLTTE'S OKOAN SAYS TAFT USES TItt'TII WITH FRU GAL ECONOMY, AND HIS STATE MENTS ARE AT VARIANCE WITH THE FACTS. UNITED rBFSS I.SAS1D Willi. Madison, Wis., April 7. Baaing its argument upon the Lorlmer scan dal and the statement of Edwin Hlnwi, the Chicago lumber magnate, that President Taft, through former Senator Aldrlch, had asked for the election of the "blonde boss," Sena tor Robert .M. La Follette's organ, La Follette's Weekly, today goes af ter the chief executive with a sharp stick. In barely parliamentary lan. guage it declares grave doubts as to his veracity. 'When an eminent gentleman like Htnes," says La Follette's organ, "swears to a statement of fact, it Is to be deplored that his statements should be denied by the president. "Hlnos swore that he did what he could to have Lorlmer elected, be cause Taft wanted Lorlmer elected. This fact Taft denies. But Aldrlch Is also named by Hlnes as an architect of the Lorlmer fortunes. Aldrlch is silent. Should he see fit. to speaic, Aldrlch would probably dispel the doubts Hlnes" tifttlmony has aroused "It Is also remembered that Lorl mer, In the senate, made Aldrlch the bell wether, whose vote he pro posed to echo. Those with good memories recall that Taft more than once, notably when the Klrby short hum! notes were reproduced at u.e Ballinger Investigation, and again when the trooim were rushed to the Mexican border, -Issued statements ni variance with the fact.- Perhaps be deemed it advisable to do so and felt that the circumstances Justified him, but It is difficult to see. what are.the circumstance Justifying a lack of cwdyjn, Jha present. .lnHfie.!

Refusing to listen to remonstrance against the re-election of Professor Kirk as principal of the high school, and completely ignoring the state ment of Superintendent Powers that he did not recommend Professor Kirk's re-election because he feared lid could not work in harmony with him, the school board at its meeting last night re-elected him and he will serve for the next year' as principal of the school. That he would be re elected had been predicted and was expected, and came as no surprise; but that the board would decline to listen to remonstrances and re-elect him over the statement of Superin tendent Powers was not expected, and It was the greatest surprise that the hoard has handed out for many a year.

Carson, John Bayne, F. M. Derby and F. A. Southwick, all rep resentative citizens and taxpayers of the city of Salem. The charges were that Professor Kirk was not fair and impartial and that he was insulting to 'the students. Action upon the matter was deferred until last night with the above result "Ton Have Had Tour Say." John Bayne was present last even ing with a written statement making additional charges and when the question of re-electing the list of teachers, including the name of Kirk was put, he asked permission to ad dress the chair. Chairman Babcock asked If it was with relation to Kirk; and upon being advised that it was, said: "You have had your say on the subject and the board is ready to (Continued from Page 4.) in the fabric you like be true.
