WANTS BOUNDARY LINE FIXED
Texas Seeks Quick Action on United

Austin, TeX.-As the result Of visit
from r. II. Ward, OF San Antonio, at
torney for the city council Of ~ Paso,
Governor Campbell wrote President
Taft, calling his attention to the neces.
sity for prompt settlement OF the
boundary line dispute between the
United States and Mexico affecting a
portion of the city OF III Paso.
The territory in dispute has pop.
ualtion of about 5000 and taXable
values of s5,OOO,O0O, and has oeen in.
vaded by squatters claiming property
under Mexican authority, who threaten
the use OF arms TO hold ON to the land,

courts are exercising criminal iurisdie.
tion in the territory in question, but
the federal courts have recently, at the
request OF the department of Justice,
suspended the exercise of civil jurisdic-
ton there pending a settlement of the
boundary controversy. The result is
that confusion reigns and trouble and
bloodshed are imminent

SWEPT BY SNOWSTORM
BALMY soUTHRRN BREEz rs
GIVE WAY TO NORTH WIND.
Rain, sleet and Snow Travel With
Cold Waves Great Suffering
and Much Damage.

Memphis, Tenn.--A cold wave swept
down from the north yesterday. II came
with a twenty-five mile an hour wind
that carried in its teeth a sharp, driv'
ing, piercing sleet, and Memphis, which
only Tuesday enjoyed the balmy zephyrs
Of the South, awakes this morning Ia
find its streets, yards, fields, houses aud
vegetation covered with blanket OF
white.
The cold wave swept over Arkansas,
Mississippi, Colorado, Oklahoma and
Texas From these states come reports
Of the great suffering that il has left
in it, wake.
Conditions in Texas seem 90 be the
worst.
North, Fast, Central and Northwest
ern Texas, rs well as Oklahoma, are in
the grip Of one Of the worst blizzarls of
the season. The freezing weather and
the rain aud sleet brought death. Four
persons are reported TO have been frozen
in Texas alone. The suffering among
the poor of the Lone star state Is said
10 be great short warning was given
of the blizzard by the newspapers, and
in Eastern Texas the truck farmers man
aged 20 prepare in measure for the
unwclcome visitor But the cattlemen
were caught unawaves, aud Il Is thought
that many thousands of head of live
stock will be sacrificed.
In fact, reports from Chicka .ha, Okla,
show that over 1900 head of fine cattle
have been killed already by the blizzard,
and II is thought that before the sleet
and snow abates several times that
many more caught out in the open will
be claimed as victims Of old Boreas
The sleet was followed by snow in Ar
kansas. Ten inches OF snow was re
ported at Rogers. Other towns reporting
heavy falls were IloXie, Helena, Tex
arkana and Jonesboro
From Cheyenne, Wyo., comes the
news that the Thermometer dropped 90
degrees in some sections OF the state
The lowest reported was below at Ian

At Paducah, ny, the worst day of the
winter was experienced Sleet and snow
covered the streets several inches deep,
causing many accidents.
In some sections OF Texas and Okla.

At Denver the temperature in -
