ANOTHER SCARE ALONG THE MEXICAN BORDER REPORT OF ARMED MEXICANS MARCHING ON MARATHON
 TEXAS Theory That Outrages On Americans Are Being Turned to Advantage
 of ReVolutionists

Fl Paso, Tex, Nov. 1.-The editor of the Marathon Hustler wires the following tonight:
 Deputy sheriffs of Maria, Texas. have telephoned that an armed band of sixty Mexicans crossed the river near here and are marching on the town. Four scouts have already been started toward the river and mean time the town officials of Marathon are raising armed men to protect the people"
 Marathon is a small town east of Fl Paso.
 The belief is held here that the revolutionists of Mexico are taking advantage of the Rodriguez incident to forward their plans and incite the public mind Sympathizers with the plan to overthrow the present re- gime in Mexico in this city, express qualification over each demonstration reported, and hint darkly that the trouble has only begun.
 Mexicans living in this city and across the river. in Juarez are, how ever, for the most part, loyal to Diaz and warmly condemn all efforts of a revolutionary nature. The demon- strations which have taken place are minimized, and declared to indicate nothing but the spirit and sentiment of the people.

Astapova, Nov 17.-Although hope is not yet given up, the attendants of Tolstoi realize that his life is in the balance and that although the strong constitution of the great Rus sian has carried him through other grave struggles against disease Ihis system has become weakened and his heart responds so feebly to restora- tives that it will be almost a mir acle if he recovers.
 Tn the early stages of inflammation of the lungs from which he is suf fering, it was his temperature that gave cause for anxiety; now it is the heart His temperature is not particularly high today, but his heart action is bad He has alter mated part of the time between un- consciousness and delirium.

MOMENTOUS
 QUESTIONS Subjects for Discussion By
 Coast Congress ITS DELIBERATIONS BEGIN
Delegates Summoned By Governor Gillett From All Western States Assem- bled in San Francisco Yesterday.

San Francisco, Nov. 17-Several points in the Pacific slope states, met today to attend the Pacific Coast con gress, which convened on the invita- tion recently extended by Governor Gillette.
 Prominent men, representing great commercial interests and civic affairs in the west, are on hand to deliberate on questions of the establishment of battleship fleet in Pacific waters and the restoration of the American merchant marine. The roll call showed representatives from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and California.
 Governor Gillette clearly outlined the purposes of the conference, stating that besides giving an impetus for the establishment of fleet in the Pacific and the establishment of clos CT commercial relations with the far east, and providing American ships to handle American cargoes, the con gross could this session more fully discuss the prospectus and plans for holding a worlds fair here in 1915, and effect a permanent organization that would forever prove beneficial to the states on this side of the cOnti- nent.
 Joseph Scott, president of the Los Angeles chamber of commerce, and Col Collier of San Diego spoke brief ly on the advantages of the movement undertaken.
 The most important speaker of the day was Brigadier General Charles F.. Morton, U. $. A, retired, who from forty- years experience in mill- tary affairs made a plea for the es- tabIishment of a fleet for the sole protection of this coast, and dwelt on the necessity of a mobile army concentrated along the coast.
 Morton gave the opinion that the United States is only a little better prepared for war at this time than when the Spanish war was declared He particularly pointed to the unpre- paredness of the army to defend the Pacific coast and stated it would be possible for an enemy to invade these shores at points not more than flt- teen or twenty miles removed from the centers of coast defense.
 No one could tell where the first blow would be struck in the event clash was suddenly precipitated.

 IN OIL LITIGATION JUDGE M'CALL DIRECTED A VER- DICT OF NOT GUILTY. Thirty Million Dollars Therefore Went

Jackson, Tenn, Nov. 17.-By ruling which required twenty minutes to read, Judge Mccall of the United States circuit court this afternoon ended the efforts of the government to obtain judgment against the Standard Oil Oil company of Indiana and penalties aggregating more than $30.O0O,00
 The ruling instructing that a verdict of not guilty be rendered came with the conclusion of the case-in- chief of the prosecution The Elkins anti-re- bate law was violated, it was alleged, through scheme and device"
 Judge Mccall, in ruling, first reviews the indictment allegations. Next he takes up the testimony presented tend ing to prove that consignments were shipped on orders received from the Standard oil company of Kentucky by the defendant company from their re- finery at Whiting.

 He points out that the testimony presented tends to prove no under standing expressed. or implied. direct or indirect" between the defendant company and the Kentucky company with regard to the rates to be paid; that it was solely business transac- tion between two corporations. Upon this statement of facts, Judge Mccall recalled that he had ruled early in the trial that the Indiana company should not be held accountable for the ship ments so far as transportation beyond Grand Junction was concerned.

Separate submission was decisively rejected in the constitutional conven- tion yesterday morning. The pro- posed amendment to the constitution, providing for statewide prohibition was led to the block first and to the surprise of its friends was de- feated by a vote of thirty three to fifteen, notwithstanding there had been nineteen votes pledged for it. Its advocates had reason to believe that they might muster twenty six in which case, with three delegates absent, they hoped that it might carry That vote foretold the fate of the equal suffrage amendment which however, commanded a little more strength. That fell by a vote of thirty to nineteen.
 All this happened in the committee of the whole and it was done more quickly than had been expected. There were several addresses in be- half of the prohibition amendment and for the first time the voice of the opposition was raised against it. In committee meetings the propo- nents had been allowed the exclusive use of the floor
 Little debate preceded the submis- sion of the equal suffrage proposi- ton. The heart had been taken out of its friends. Mir. Webb, the cham pion of both spoke briefly for equal suffrage The opposition said noth- ing. It merely stood behind the door with barred arm and meat ak poised ready for the swat.

is now to be applied to prohibition. why discriminate against in it's favor against all other matters concerning which gentlemen are divided.
 Mir. Parsons concluded by charg- ing the advocates of prohibition with bad faith. Before the Cochise county he said he had been told by O. Gibson, the frequent prohibition candidate for delegate to congress that if the convention would adopt the principle of direct legislation, that would be all that the prohibitionists would ask.
 The Decisive Vote
 That was the end of the debate and the matter went to a vote on the motion of MT. Keegan to amend the motion of MT Crutchfield with the result: Ayes, 33-BOlan, Cooper, Cunniff.

THE REVOLUTIONARY PLOT
Directing Centers All Along the Line From Nogales to Browns
 ville

SAN ANTONIO, Nov. 17.-Federal secret service officers who have been working here for several days, to- day learned the details of the revo- lutionary plot in part uncovered by the Mexican government.
 A general uprising along the bOr= der from NOgales, Arizona, to Brownsville, Texas, was set for Sun day, November 20. Nogales is the headquarters of the junta operating Tn Sonora. It has been in existence since the raid on Las Nacas two years ago. The brains of the move ment are in the United States and Europe. The revolutionists are backed by a seemingly ineXhaustible supply of money which has been used to purchase arms in this country.

THE SCENE OF SLAUGHTER
The Details of the Death of Both
 Measures

When the convention assembled there was a large crowd in the gal Ieries The leading prohibition work CTS and the suffragists of the terri tory were there and a few represeh- tatives of the saloon interests. The sympathy of the audience was mani festIy with the advocates of both propositions and was expressed hear tilv throughout the brief debate.
 MT. Webb presented two petitions. one in favor of prohibition and the other an immense roll, which looked as if it might have been a mile long. in favor of equal suffrage.
 When the convention went into the committee of the whole, MT. Colter was in the chair. That was regarded bv the friends of both measures as a good sign. Proposition 26 was taken up first; that related to statewide prohibition concerning which there had been two reports. Mir. Crutch- field beat the opposition to it and moved the adoption of the minority report. In the absence of Chairman Wills of the separate submission com mittee, MT. Keegan offered an amend ment recommending the adoption of the majority report.
 Mir. Webb for the proposition said that a question was now presented which must be answered sooner or later Now, for various reasons was the proper time. It could be done without expense whereas, if it were submitted by the invocation of the initiative as it was bound to be un- less it were answered now, the set tlement would involve great expense to the taxpayers. Now it could be settled for all time.
 He urged consistency on the part of the majority. The principle of the initiative and the referendum had been unanimously endorsed by the democratic members. Why, there fore, deny the application of it in this case and why not let the people express themselves as they see fit?
 Not a Question of Wet or Dry
 MT Franklin. also for the proposi- tion said that if the question of statewide prohibition had come up on its merits he was not sure that he would favor it. But that was not the question before the conven- ton. The majority had expressed llSell III 1dNOI Ol SiNiilS litC ptOpiC the freest expression on all matters that concerned them and the ena- bling act had expressly conferred upon the convention the power to do the thing that it was proposed to do. He concluded: If you are sincere, if the initiative and referendum is principle and not a fad, you cannot fail to support this proposition. l am willing to abide by the will of the people on both these proposi- tions."
 MT Cunningham said it was not his intention to offer any advice on this subject. The people of his county had already spoken on it. Personally, he said, he was in favor of the proposition but if he had in tended to vote for it and if he be- lieved the statement of Mir. Webb that it would result in the settle

Deafness Cannot Be cured

By local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing viii be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
