Teheran, Persia.-Sani Ell Dowlenl

The murderers also killed two pc.

n, paso. Texas.-The i~nsurreceion
q Mevico seems to have reached une
stage of real warfare, and many peo
nla who are inclined toward the peace
and ouietude Of every day life are
leaving their homes and focking lnto
the United States. 49,
At daylight Sunday morning tne
battle of Bauche, seventeen miies
south of Juarez, wa begun. Orozco'
the rebel leader, had ditched a Troop
train about 7 O'Clock Saturday mght
A number of Americans and Mexican
women and children who wer on tne
train were told to get out OF the war
zone. Orozco fired several voiieys
over the heads of the people to fright
en- them away and to bring out the
federals, Then he retired to watch
At daylight he saw the federals
placing their machine gun. lie
opened fire. After desultory hrlng
on both sides, lasting several hours
Colonel Rabago, the federal com
mander, was able to retreat in good
order. He entered Juarez at 9:2o
o'clock Sunday night.
Rebels say the federals lost loo
killed and many wounded. Their own
losses they aver were only two. Fed
erals exactly reverse this estimate.
Neutral observers say there were
about 100 killed or wounded on each
side.
The Red Cross train which went to
Bauche reported that the federals re-
fused to recognize the Red Cross flag.
The train returned with several
rounded, one of whom was a woman
injured when the train was ditched.
Alani, the rebel leader, with 600
men, attacked a small force of fed
erals twenty-five miles east of Juarez
Sunday afternoon. Then he resumed
his march to join Orozco.
Major N. Lapowski, U. S. A., tele-
graphed from Ell Paso that the rebels
had won an overwhelming victory,
capturing all arms and ammunition.
"Juarez is the key to the arch.
If Juarez falls, the Mexican admins
tration will fall. Give us Juarez, and
We shall have the country in sixty
days"
This is the way that Gustavo A. Ma.
dero, brother to Francisco l. Madero,
leader of the revolutionary forces in
Mexico, sums up the latest advices
from the front.

Passengers Saved by Wireless.

Cordova, Alaska.-The steel steam
ship Victoria of the Alaska Steamship
company's line, bound from Seattle
for Alaska points, went on the rocks
on Hinchinbrook island during a nov.
storm Tuesday night. A large hole
was crushed in her bow and she made
water rapidly. The Bertha was sum.
moned by wireless. On her arrival
the passengers and mail were trans
ferred to the Bertha. Captain Davis
then headed the Victoria for Nuchuck
bay, arriving there late at night.

STRIKERS LEAVE CAMP,
Mines at KeniIworth to Resume With
Reduced Force.

Kenilworth, Utah.-All is quiet at
this camp, following the dreadful
tragedy of Monday. The greater
number of the .warlike Greeks have
left the camp and those remaining
have promised to obey orders and
will not foment further trouble.
The arrival here of officers from all
parts of the state soon cowed the
disconnected Greeks.
Work has been resumed at the mine
with a reduced force Of men. Some
of the leaders of the outbreak have
been arraigned and will be held for
trial.
Disconnected Greeks, congregated at
Helper, seemed cowed by the prompt
action taken in guarding Kenilworth.
Owing to active work of influential
Greeks from Salt Lake and other
points, Greeks in other coal camps so
far remain neutral and refuse to take
sides in the Kenilworth difficulties.

SMITH BREAKS LONG SILENCE.
General Charged With CrueIties In
Philippines Defends Actions.

Portsmouth, Ohio.-General Jacob
Fl. Smith of Samar Island fame, broke
his years Of silence Friday night and
defended the course of action which
preceded his retirement from the
army following his memorable cam
paign of 1902.
General Smith denied vigorously
that he had ordered or countenanced
the killing of women and children by
the soldiers. He said he had been
severe with the savage tribes of the
Philippines, because they had mutt
lated wounded soldiers and set fire to
their bodies.
He bitterly assailed Theodore
Roosevelt, who, he said, praised Gen
eral Wood for conducting a campaign
along the same lines as the speaker
had followed, although the then presi-
dent had arrayed himself against
Smith.

called on Tuesday for alleged m,scas

of the women who were recently ),
franchised in the state of Washinvto,
admittedly being largely ~respopsihs
Tor this result.
George Dilhng was elected ove,
Mayor Gill and will take office imm.
diately to serve out the unexuirsa
part of Gill's term. One hundred ma
cincts out Of 1853 gave billing 1904
and Gill 17.124. "A very large nm
portion Of the $4,000 women who re-.
istered cast their ballots and TO them
Is given all the responsibility ~
credit for the recall.
1t was alleged by the recall leaders
that Gill and Chief Of Police Wan
penstein had farmed out the vim
privileges to a syndicate and had COL
lected a large percentage of the "a
ceipts of the syndicate.
The women, who we're extremely
active in Tuesdays election, stood
in lines at the booths and appeared
to be as apt and quick at casting
their votes as the more experienced
male voters. A surprise of the day
was the heavy Socialist vote, which
probably will reach 5000.

For two years there has been al
