that mines in the MADEIRA district are
short of food. The mines IN that

a story typical of the situation
comes from Minaca. AT that point n
store owned by German named
Jungk was entered by revolutionists
recently. Two locks We're broken
and his stock Of dynamite and caps
taken. The next day a leader of the
insurreetos appeared with list of
the goods confscated 1t tailed ex-
actly with one made up by the store
keeper, The insurrecto produced a
large roll of money from which he
paid the usual price of goods. He
then insisted in paying for the broken
locks, explaining that he and-his com =
rades had plenty of money.
The revolutionists are by no means
solely of the poor class. In fact, the
small ranch owner is said to be
largely represented. The insurrecto
commandante at San Andres is Fran
cisco Valdez Valseques, a chemist
and assayer of this city, who Is also
the author of book on assaying.
The usual trains now move on the
railroad. They are scrutinized at

was reported missing week ago, has
