(By Associated Press.)

Ell Paso, Tex, May 10.-The blaze
that ragged during last night in Juarez,
reducing whole blocks to ruins, is
smouldering today, but the town is
again in the thickest of fight between
the rebels and the defending garrison.
The rebels surrounded the outskirts of
the town with all their reserves and
gradual advance up the main thor
oughfare toward the federal strong
hold was begun at eight o'clock. The
rebels captured the church where fed
eral troops have been stationed and
General Navarro evacuated Juarez.
Fighting Was Fierce.
The fighting was fierce for three
hours and all the time the rebels were
gaining headway. A big explosion oc-
CURED at the school house, where the
federals were quartered, and those
not wounded or killed, fed. Next the
rebels drove the Fourteenth Mexican
infantry from Big Quartet, taking four
prisoners. The prisoners were dis
armed and liberated
| Dynamite bombs were exploding con-
stantly around the church and the
municipal buildings where other fed
eral detachments were stationed. In
the battle at the church the rebels took
many prisoners.
Rebels Get achievements. i.
Three hundred rebel reinforcements
from Casa Grandes arrived at Bauche,
eleven miles South of Juarez this
morning and started toward the city.
The federal reinforcements under
Rabago. are reported 1876 miles south,
with no prospect of reaching here for
week.
During today's fighting several bull
lets penetrated the United States Gus
toms house, where newspa pr mel
were stationed, but no one was a
, jured.

EXPRESS OFFICE ROBBED
Canadian Robbers Make Rich Haul at
Hamilton.

Hamilton, Ont, Sept. 29.--During
the night the main Office of the Cana
dian Express company was robbed and
between $4,000 and $4,000 is missing.
At 6 o'clock this morning a driver
found a side door which is ordinarily
unfastened locked. The driver thought
the clerk inside was asleep and pound
ed on the door, but failed to get a re-
sponse.
The manager was notified and
forced the door The clerk was
found awake with his hands and feet
tied. Despite the fact that he was
awake and was not gagged, the clerk
had not answered the calls OF the
driver and the manager.
The manager refused TO release the
bound clerk until policeman arrived,
and Detective Cameron responded to
the call. After releasing the clerk and
hearing his story. Cameron detained
the former at the express office. In
spector Campbell the manager and
other officials OF the company were
closeted with the clerk all the morn
ing. They have refused TO make any
statement or give the name of the
clerk.
The clerk said that about a. m. he
was held up by masked men, who tied
and bound him and then got away
with the money. A package of $4,000
was received last night at the office.

CHILD KILLED MOTHER
Mrs. Edward Peters of Hooslck Acct
dentaIly Shot.

Mrs Edward Peters, whose home
is about half way between Eagle
Bridge and North Hoosick, was shot
and killed by the accidental discharge
of shotgun In the hands of her g.
year-old son about Z o'clock Thursday
night. Mrs. Peters survived the
wound about five hours, dying at the
Samaritan hospital, Troy, shortly be-
fore midnight
Mrs. Peters husband is employed
!, at the Walloomsac paper mills, work
ing nights and was at work when the
fatal accident happened. Mrs. Peters
was playing about the house with her
son, when the youngster picked up a
single-bareled shotgun, and play
fully pointing the weapon at his
mother, pulled the trigger. The
charge of shot struck Mrs. Peters just
below the left knee. She fell to the
floor in a swoon, while her son fell
on her crying for Mamma to get up"
The house is situated apart from any
other residences, and no word OF the
accident was known for upwards OF
two hours, when two little girls, who
had learned of 1t, hurried into the
Office of DR.. w. Il. Fox at North Hoo
sick and told him of the shooting
The young ones had walked about two
miles to apprise the physician OF the
accident, and were completely ex-
hausted as the result OF their long
tramp.
DR.. Fox hurried in an automobile to
the scene and found the unfortunate
woman barely alive. He dressed her
wounds and then had her removed to
the Samaritan hospital. Or. Fox &C
companied the woman to Troy, but
she died within fifteen minutes follow
ing her arrival to the institution Her
death was caused by shock and hemor-
rhages.
The isolated situation Of the Peters
home and the fact that medical assist
ance could not be secured more
promptly undoubtedly caused Mrs. Pc
ters' death. Alone with the exception
OF the company OF her six-year-old son
the woman was practically helpless
after receiving the wound, and but for
the two children who made their way
in the darkness and along lonely roads
to the office of DR.. Fox the accident
would probably have remained un-
known until morning upon the re
turn OF the husband from his nights
toll at the paper mills.

PORTER MADE ROCKEFELLER
He Started OIL Business at Urging Of
Samuel Andrews

Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 2S.-Follow.
ing the celebration by John d. Rookie
Teller OF the fifty-sixth anniversary OF
getting his first and only job comes
the story Of how Mr., Rockefeller was
inspired to his financial career by a
porter In st. Louis store. II was at
the urging of Samuel Andrews, the
porter. that Mr.. Rockefeller engaged
in the oil refining business, investing
$1,000, the whole of his fortune.
Mr.. Rockefeller having received an
increase in pay to S25 a month at the
end of his first year as bookkeeper
for Hewitt 4 futile. decided that he
could not make or save much money
working for others. He went TO st.
Louis. There in 1858 with $500 he
had saved, he engaged in the commits
sion business with NJ r. Clark, an
Englishman, forming the firm OF Clark
& Rockefeller AT the age Of 80 he
had accumulated $1,000.
IL was then he met Andrews, the
porter, became interested in his stor.
les, and eventually in the oil refining
business on the Mississippi river
above st. Louis, under the firm name
OF Andrews, Clark a Co 1t was not
long before Mr.. Rockefeller began to
broaden the business personally, one
OF his first moves being to gain an
investment OF 100000 from Henry NJ.

GIRL AIDED
THIEF TO ROB HER
FATHERS SAFE
Pair Got Away With Jewelry
Worth $4,000.
BOTH MAY GO FREE
Police Declare That Miss Vivian ia
cobs Furnished Combination
to Fathers Strong Box

Boston, Mass, Sept. 29.-The desire
TO have good time, even at her faith
ers expense, is the motive which the
police ascribe to Miss Vivian Jacobs
for whose arrest they swore out
warrant today. Miss Jacobs is the
daughter of Nathan Jacobs, a Wash
ington street tailor, whose residence
at 529 Newbury street was robbed last
August of $4,000 worth of jewelry and
5000 in cash.
A debonnair youth calling himself
Gordon II. Rogers, but who is believed
to be George H. Randall of New York,
was arrested yesterday for the rob
berry, and the police and private detec-
tiyes who worked together on the case
say he made a confession and impli-
Gated Miss Jacobs as an accomplice.
In statement made public today
through her fathers attorney, Miss
Jacobs declared that she had no part
in committing the robberies. She
said Rogers confessed to her and she
maintained silence under his threat
to kill her If she told, and his promise
to make restitution.
This statement is not correct, the
police assert. They say that Miss
Jacobs participation In the robbery is
not fully described, nor her share
in pawning the plumber. They credit
the prisoners story.
He says that Miss Jacobs furnished
the combination Of the safe and went
with him and that when Rogers" was
unable to open the safe, even with
the combination in hand, Miss Jacobs
helped him get an experienced safe
opener from the agency where the
safe was bought, and that Rogers"
having represented himself as being a
member of the family, the workman
did the work honestly and well and
was dismissed after he had opened the
safe door
Rogers" told how he had made the
acquaintance Of Miss Jacobs at Win.
throp where the Jacobs family was
spending the summer, and went into
some detail, the police say, as to his
friendship with the girl which led
them to take expensive automobile
rides, dinners, etc.
Much OF the jewelry taken from the
Jacobs family safe, some OF 1t owned
by Miss Jacobs herself, has been re-
deemed from pawnshops In New York
where Rogers" admitted having dis.
posed OF It.
The prisoner has shown considera-
ton for his parents, for he has refus-
ed TO give his name or his residence,
and until Miss Jacobs statement was
given out these were matters only of
conjecture.

WOULD KILL BOXING LAW.
Governor Dix, In Special Message,
Urges Repeal Of Frawley Law.

Albany, Sept. Ex-Governor Dix sent
a special message to the Legislature
today recommending the repeal of the
Frawley law under which the state
athletic commission to regulate boxing
was established.
Governor Dix said: When this bill
came before me for signature | be-
lieved that it would prevent the dis
orderly and unregulated exhibitions Of
boxing which have been given In this
state for the last few years. The brief
experience with the exising law has
satisfied me that 1t is not adapted to
produce such result. The condi-
tons which have arisen under 1t are
hostile to the feelings and the inter
ests of the law abiding citizens Of the
state, and should be ended at once.
have already taken such steps as l can
under the law to prevent such occur
rences. and propose to exercise such
further powers as | have TO that end.
| therefore urge upon you the repeal
of the law under which these occur
rences have arisen"
The message was referred TO the
Senate judiciary committee.
Senator Newcombe introduced
bill carrying out the Governors recon-
mendation, which went to the finance
committee, of which Senator Frawley
is chairman.

WAR ON MIDpLEMEN
Families and Retailers Unite In Com
mon Cause

New York, Sept 2S.-Ten thousand
heads of New York families, 500 retail
dealers in so lines and several hun
dred farmers of the Pennsylvania
state grange have combined in an as
ISOLATION here to eliminate the middle
man and lower the high cost of liy.
ing. While the Pennsylvania state
grange is completing negotiations with
the association this week to handle
their output, small army of canvas
sers is enrolling hundreds of other
families in the movement and officers
OF the association are negotiating with
the farmers of New York state to han
die their products also.
The association plans to act as a
clearing house between producer and
consumer, dividing between them the
profit of the various middlemen
through whose hands food commodi-
ties have hitherto passed. In the
case of some farm products the as
ISOLATION finds that six middlemen or
brokers have been reaping profits be-
fore the products reach the consumer.
The 500 dealers in almost every line
of retail trade are members of the as
ISOLATION and receive their supplies,
because of such membership, at lower
than market rates. The heads of fam
lilies are associate members.
The 500 dealers are divided into
seven groups. Each group is requir.
ed to pay into the Golfers of the asso-
citation a percentage of its gross re-
ceipts, varying from per cent for
grocers to Is per cent for druggists.
The fund thus created is divided into
six parts, four OF which are put aside
for distribution among the consumers,
one part being spent for advertising
and one part for administration and
operating expenses.
Each associate member, or head of
family receives coupon from the
dealer whenever he makes a purchase,
setting forth the amount of goods
bought. A the end OF stated periods
the consumer surrenders his coupons
TO the association to serve as a basis
for computing the rebate which he
will receive from the profit fund. 1t
is the plan to reduce the cost Of living
by these refunds rather than by charg-
ing the consumer lower than market
prices in the first instance.
The association has been canvass
ing the apartment houses and resi-
dence districts for associate members
during the past seven days Within
this period they have procured nearly
k000 of thair 10 0O0 aeeociate memhars
Patrick Egan, former United States
minister to Chile, who is the vice pre-
sident of the association predicted to-
day that the cost of living would be
materially reduced through the organ
ization. A part Of the program in.
cludes campaign against the manipu-
lation of market prices of farm prod
ucts by storing produce in refrigera-
ting plants.
