ARE SEVERELY ATTACKED

Chihuahua, Mexico, December 81
(via IA Paso, Texas, Dec. 49, Rumors
of the last three days that Gen. Navarro
has been surrounded by the insurrectos
were confirmed yesterday afternoon by
an American who left Pedernales, the
scene of operations, on Monday after
noon. According to this observer, Ma
yarro personally is uninjured and re-
mains at the head of a detachment Of
his troops numbering $50 at the vii.
lage Of Pedernales. He described their
position there as SO preearious Chat
scarcely soldier could poke his head
from the protection OF the houses with.
out being fired on.
In Chihuahua no American cares TO
have his name used in connection with
war news because the success Of his
business depends upon the governmental
good will. The American who brought
the news is in the same boat, and he
talked under pledge Of secrecy. He
stated that while he saw only $50 Of
Navarro's force at Pedernales he be-
lieved that the remainder Of the outfit,
numbering in the neighborhood of $50
persons, were posted in other positions.
He received the impression, however,
that the federals had suffered heavy
losses and he was certain that they We're
surrounded He declared the mountains
surrounding Pedernales, varying in dis
lance from five to fifteen miles, swarmed
with revolutionists. He added that so
complete is the investment that Navarro
Is hard pressed TO feed his men.
The man who brought this report said
that he saw many dead near the village
of Pedernales, but that the zone in
(which sley hy was flre-swept, and
Navarro did not attempt burals. He re.
turned TO this city through Nal Paso,
where the troop train was shot up, and
counted fifteen dead he declared that
a detachment of insurrectos still oc.
eupied the passage.
AT Pedernales he inquired after Gerald
Brandon, correspondent OF the Mexican
Herald with the troops. Some answered
that Brandon had been wounded for the
second time and had started for La
Junta through the insurrecto lines, while
others simply reported him missing
Brandon has exposed himself freely in
quest of news, and a report Of his death
or injury would surprise no one. His
horse was shot under him near here three
weeks age, and he was wounded twice
in the recent battle at Cerro Prieto,
neither wound, however, being serious.
The bearer Of news given out is the only
person who has returned from the front
proper in the last week He also III
quired for A. F. Sommerfeld, who went
to the front ten days ago as interpreter

LEASED CAR
ROBS FARMER
Prominent Dairyman De
nOunceS Railroads
In MILK CONTROVERSY
Cattle Owners to Fight-Demand for
Representation on the State Board
Of Health a Feature Of the
Plans.
IN MILK CONTROVERSY

Worcester, Mass, Dee 23.-C. w.
Wood, one Of the prominent dairymen Of
New England, and leader in the milk
agitation of the last few years, Wednes-
day denounced the leased car system OF
the railroads at a meeting of the Mas
sachusetts Cattle Owners association.
He declared that by it the independent
was shut out Of the market, that the
farmer is being robbed and that the con-
tractors, through the Leverage it gives
them, are handed monopoly. The milk
grower and the milk consumer are alike
made to pay toll to the man who can
make terms with the railroad, he said.
Mr., Woods address was one of the
features OF the meeting, but the mem
bers through the day managed to do a
number of things of considerable inn
portance, Among them was the passage
of a resolution endorsing the Saunders
law OF the last session OF the legislature
and condemning the efforts made to
make it appear that the statute did not
meet with the commendation of the
farmers They also decided to continue
the fight for better conditions before
the legislature and elsewhere, and to re-
quest that a member of the association
be given a place on the state board OF
health.
1t was also decided to fight the efforts
of the Consumers Cooperative league to
secure the passage of law requiring
that no milk shall be sold in Massachu-
sets except from cows that have passed
the tuberculine test.
Mr. Wood devoted most of his res
marks to the transportation Of milk, de-
cIaring that it was the most important
of all the problems that confront the
farmers.
"The methods of transportation of
milk" he said, peculiar to New Eng
land, have been a. subject OF controversy
for 80 years. In 1879 the railroads COM
missioned the evil that has existed ever
since by instituting the leased car serv,
ice. 1t has been brought to the atten.
tion OF the legislature every two or three
years since then, and | have here a re-
port which shows that the railroad COM
mission knows all about the matter
1T reveals a condition that not one
in one thousand would realize II shows
the conditions under the leased car serv-
ice, which has been responsible for the
growth of influence and affluence OF the
milk contractor" he continued.
THE state grange, which met here
last week, passed resolutions unanimous
~ approving the Saunders bill, and in

structed its legislative committee to use
every effort to prevent any attempt to
repeal the bill
''The Saunders law is the best that
has ever been on the statutes, because
it provides equal rights. You can read
it up and down from now till doomsday,
and all you can find is that the railroads
will have to give the small and large
like treatment. Woe to the man who
raises his voice to repeal. There have
been bills since 1873, but the differences
has been to enforce them. The astute
ability OF the railroad and corporation
lawyers has been able to find flaws In
them,
"The Saunders bill was so short that
no two constructions could be put on it,
and because it is so plain it cannot be
picked apart"

GRAIN LETTER.

Wheat-Best informed brokers in
the trade put the July trades for the
day at n half million bushels at the
outside. 1t was mostly I'm the way OF
evening up between the belated hold
crs who wanted TO get out on swell
and belater shorts who wanted to COW
err on a collapse IL Is to the credit of
the general trade that business went
along i'm the other month without much
regard for the July operations. On
the whole there was better support
for wheat than for many days. There
was less selling pressure in the shape
of hedging. Northwest messages say
that the very best harvest returns are
now being sent into southern Mime
sofa. Later when the worst sections
of North Dakota are reached, the re-
ports will be so bad as to cause a
change of feeling.
Corn-There was a bull market In
corn all day and prices were about u
under high point for all active months.
In the absence of local selling pressure
a bull market was started and contin-
ued most of tn day. Short sellers were
unwilling to take chances over Monday
fearing possible returns of excessive
heat and crop damage reports. If the
southwest gets rim and conditions are
fine Monday morning, the market VIII
flatten out again hut on the contrary.
If the weather continues Cry and hot,
with the good buying, II will no doubt
have another bulge.
