NEW YORK, April 22.-Herr Zoltan

Thus according to my figures my

Special Dispatch to Tn. Call.

NACO, Ariz., April 22.-Billy Stiles
and Bravo Juan have joined forces.
The two outlaws met somewhere in the
San Jose Mountains of Sonora and
from there rode into Naco last night.
where they raided the supply store OF
the Southwestern Commercial and I'M
porting Company on the. Mexican side
in money from the cash register and
other valuables and succeeded in max
ing way with the booty before they
were discovered by the officers.
The stores entered are located near
the line and in the center of the Mexi-
can town, and such a thing as a rob-
berry there was never feared. Stiles is
familiar with Naco and aware of this
fact. He knew that only a. bold at
tempt such as this. could ever succeed.
Accordingly the outlaws rode right
into town, tied their horses and effect
ed an entrance into the stores by a
back door. They were discovered just
as they were making for their horses
by two Mexicans. who gave the alarm.
Rangers Stamford and Hopkins i'm
mediately responded and took the trail
Of the outlaws, which they were still
following when last heard from, while
a second party went out at sunrise. The
outlaws went southeast into the San
Jose Mountains.
This was the first seen of Bravo
Juan in three years, although the
officers have for long time believed
that he was in the country, having re-
turned from the interior Of Mexico.
Stiles and Juan are old partners and
worse pair than Stiles and Alvord.

ed stores, has offered handsome re-
ward for the capture Of the robbers

drawal reduces the reserve to 1926, 900.
The directors attribute this. result to
the epidemic of foot and mouth disease

shipments of livestock therefrom, and

LONDON, April 23.-Rumors of fight

various forms and from various points.
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Post says he heard that the first Japa-
nese army had crossed the Yalu almost
without opposition. and the Chronicle's
correspondent at Seoul says that heavy
fighting has occurred, but that for
strategic reasons it is impossible to
send particulars.
No authentic news, however, has
reached London showing that any
thing has happened beyond skirmish-
ing.
According to the Telegraph's st.
Petersburg correspondent the Russian
strategists are reluctantly arriving at
the conclusion that Kuroki is engaged
in the adventurous plan of advancing
along the middle reaches of the Yalu

PARIS, April 22.-Fears are enter
tanned in Government circles that an
attempt to take the life of President
Loubet may be made during his jour
ney to Italy. The police have received
secret instructions to provide strong
guard for the train, and no loophole
through which an assassin might oper-
ate will be left open.
Marseilles promises to resemble an
armed camp when the Presidential
train passes through. 1t is confidently
stated that not single anarchist will
go free there. Every mile of track be-
tween Paris and the Mediterranean will
be subjected to close scrutiny before
the train passes.
The Roman populace is reported to
be enthusiastic, but the Partisan pub
lie takes little more interest in the
event than it does when "Pere Loubet"
goes off with his pipe and gun and dog
for a few days of pheasant shooting at
Compiegne.
President Loubet's visit to Italy is
at least as important as any recent
interchange of visits between European
soyereigns," said an official of the Pres
lOenLS y nOuSeHOlu lO-Udy. NE FIeSi-
dent" he continued, has taken a pc
culiar interest in the recent rapproche-
ment of the Latin nations Of Europe.
1t may be said that he personally pre-
pared both a new economic entente be-
tween France and Italy and also the
political friendship which followed it
bonds which it would have seemed i'm
possible to forge a decade ago. The
result of Loubet's visit will be formally
to consecrate this understanding. which
is full of meaning to the peace of Eu-
rope.
President Loubet is heart and hand
with King Edward, whose whole policy
since he came to the throne has been
to weave such complicated inner web
of international friendships that the
more formal political alliances will be
unable to disturb them unless on occa-
sions of worldwide Importance. The
President is one of the main support
ers of the new belief that European
differences can be settled by common
sense rather than by threats. King
Edward, President Loubet and the
Car have done more in a few years
than professional peace advocates did
in two centuries"

RENO, New. April 22.-That a lucky
star is guiding the destinies OF Francis
Frey, a prominent business man OF
Genoa, was illustrated tonight when
Frank Palmer. a bartender in the
Dewey saloon, showed wicked-looking
revolver into Frey's face and, with
murderous intent. pulled the trigger
twice, each time the cartridge falling to
explode. When Frey recovered from
his fright he made for the door. AS he
did so Palmer fired two shots, but both
missed their mark. A crowd soon gath
cred at the saloon and Palmer was dis
armed. The shooting, so far as can be
learned, was unprovoked. Palmer ad-
mits attempting to kill Frey. and it is
probable that he viii be prosecuted.

Charge of Accept
ing Illegal Fee
Is Heard.

The fate of George F. Bracket, chief
surgeon of the San Francisco Emer-
gency Hospitals, hangs in the balance.
and some time to-day he will know
whether his official head is to be sew
cred by Mayor Schmitz or whether he
will retain his star and municipal po-
sition.
Yesterday an investigation was held
by the citv's executive as result Of
the charges preferred against DR..
Bracket by a Coroner's jury for ac-
cepting a fee for services rendered in
his official capacity.
Many witnesses were examined yes
terday and contradictory testimony
given. The result of the matter can be
foreshadowed by the statement OF
Mayor Schmitz, who said at the close
of the case:
II will decide what will do to-mor-
row, but I will say right now it
is wrong to collect a fee for services
in an emergency hospital. 1t is not in
keeping with the rules Of the institu-
tions and cannot be tolerated. Fur
thermore, the matter of Withholding an
inquest for two months is a matter for
the Grand Jury to investigate"
Dr. Brackett was the first witness
called. AS he raised his hand to take
the oath administered by Mayor
Schmitz his face was ashen pale and
his fingers twitched convulsively. As
the city's chief executive stated the
cause of his being summoned the ac-
cused man glanced nervously around
the room and seemed to take courage
from the fact that Leon Samuels was
at his side as his legal representative
In reply to a query as to whether he
desired to make any statement DIR.
Bracket replied by going into the de-
tails of how Ames had -been brought
into the hospital Saturday afternoon Of
February 13, and the nature of his in
juries; how ne later proceeded to his
home and there found a message pur-
porting to be from NJ. Fleishhacker, a
member of the firm for whom the in
jured man had worked Brackett called
up the number, and when asked what
condition Ames was in, informed the
person at the other end of the phone
that he believed amputation would be
necessary Fleishhacker told him not
to do anything until he (Fleishhacker)
had consulted a surgeon himself.
Brackett informed Fleishhacker that
he would not discuss the case over the
telephone, but that If any other physi-
clan was to be brought into the case
it would have to be as consultant;
that Fleishhacker stated he was too
busy to visit Brackets house or office

signs Of difference of opinion between

The disposition of the service branches
is distinctly in favor of Government
control, which makes toward the sup
port Of the Russian position. 1t is even
argued that no civilian should be al

executive permission. because it's use
