GEORGIA PATRONAGE
AMOUNTS TO S24,300
Representatives Garner and
Lloyd viii Get Two of the
Positions
ny RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, April S--It became
known definitely today Representatives
Lloyd of Missouri and Garner of Texas
will constitute two Of the three members
of the patronage committee. The third
member will be a northern or western
Democrat This committee will super
intend the distribution of patronage ap-
proximating half a million dollars.
Georgia's share of this patronage will
amount to about $4,000. Neither Con-
gresham Adamson nor Hardwick will
participate in the distribution, as each
of them are committee chairmen and
under the rule are excluded.
1t is estimated that each member will
be entitled to about S2,7OO in patronage
but the jobs will be apportioned out to
the states In other words, Congress-
men Edwards, Roddenberry, Hughes,
Howard, Bartlett. Lee. Bell and Brantley
win get together and select Georgians to
fill positions the salaries of which aggre-
gate $243OO.
The patronage committee will be guided
by the state delegation in apportioning
out the places. Thus, If the Georgia
members decided to take IL $1,000 places
and the patronage committee can find the
positions l. Georgians will come to Wash
ington.
1t is hardly possible however, that the
Georgians will decide to exhaust their
patronage upon so few places. 1t is prob
able that several $1,000 jobs will be pick
ed out, some 81 800 places and maybe one
or two $1,000 offices. The wishes of the
individual members will be consulted in
this regard

MARTIN, FOR MINORITY
LEADER IN THE SENATE
Senator Bacon Has Never
Been Candidate Stone Out
of the Race
ny RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. April Ex-senator
Martin, of Virginia, will be elected mi
nority leader of the senate at the Demo-
cratic caucus of the upper house. This is
as a certainty by members of
the opposition faction, and it is unlikely
that the name of any other candidate will
be presented.
Martin affiliates with the conservative
wing of the Democratic party in the SEN
ate, and by some is looked upon as a pro-
Bailey man. Senator Stone, of Missouri,
was considered by the opposing element
as a possible leader but the Martin fac
ton has enough votes to cinch his cleo
ton, and Stones name viii not be pre-
scented.
Senator Bacon has never been a candi-
date for the place, although II is conf
IDENTIFY believed by his friends that he
could have easily been elected had he
agreed to allow the use of his name. He
might have been elected minority leader
two years ago had he been willing to
make a contest. He has steadfastly held
to the opinion that the minority leader
ship should not be sought, and he has
never been willing to accept it unless he
had practically the unanimous support of
his colleagues. Until four years ago,
when Senator Culberson. of Texas, was
first elected leader. the place had sought
the man. Since that time the element of
rivalry has been injected into the matter,
with the result that the Democrats are
now split by factions.
1t is probable that Senator Terrell will
be given a place on the agricultural com
mitttee of the senate.

BARTLETT INTRODUCED
FIRST CONGRESS BILLS
Two Bills Were in Regard to
Tariff Legislation and Will
Be Passed
BY RALPH SMITH

WASHINGTON. d. c., April 4.-Con-
gresham Bartlett. Of the Sixth. intro
duced the first bills of the ed congress
Immediately after the house was organ
lied today.
The first bill proposed to plade on the
free list cotton bagging and ties The
second aims to take the tariff tax off all
fresh meats. The third provides that all
contest cases in federal cosrts involving
questions of facts shall be tried by jury.
The measures relating to the tariff were
referred to the way and means COM
mittee, where they viii receive attention
in the very near future
Unless the provisions of the Bartlett
bills are Incorporated in general tariff
measure, 1t is not improbable that the
committee will favorably report them to
the house. and 1t is believed they may
pass before congress adjourns 1t is un-
likely, however, that the bill relating to
contempt trials in federal courts will re-
ceive attention in this congress. as the
Democratic caucus did not embrace such
legislation in its general schedule.

covered, calcium sulphide.

er pimples, blotches, blackheads. rash

REBELS PLAN ASSAULT
TO RESCUE AMERICANS
Madero to Attack CaSaS
Grande and Liberate II
Soldiers of Fortune
nv Associated Press. ,

Ell PASO, Tex, April 5.-Charles
Richards and Jewell Williams. the one
a machinist in the Madero. Mexico. shops,
and the other just completing one
months service with the insurrectos, ar
rived here today with the news that the
insurrectos have no present intention OF
attacking the city of Chihuahua.
Their ambition, said Williams, who
makes his home with his mother at No.
so West 173d street, New York, is to re-
capture Casas Grande and liberate The
prisoners, including II Americans, taken
in the recent engagement at that place.
AID RUSHED CHIHUAHUA.
Coincident with this information comes
an official announcement that Gen. Rafael
Eguia Lis and the Casas Grandes gar
rison of 500 federal troops have been or
dered to proceed to Chihuahua. The add
ition of troops, 1T is estimated, will bring
the Chihuahua garrison UP to 5000 or
more men.
The 1nsurrectos realize that with their
force of not over 1900 men equipped only
with carbines and with no artillery they
have no chance against the fully equip
ped and numerically stronger force with
in the city. 1t is not unlikely, however,
unless the present pour parlers are speed
lily developed into truce that Madero
or some other rebel chieftain will endeav-
or to intercept Eguia Lis on the march.
With regard to the official announce
ment of this move of the Casas Grandes
force, 1t is considered by those familiar
with Mexican strategy that 1t may be
meant merely to mislead the enemy.
In any event it is practically certain
that Eguia Lis will not attempt to take
his prisoners with him.
Madero is at Ranchero Bustillos, where,
If present plans do not miscarry. he will
soon receive his father and brother, AL
fonso. to discuss peace plans. There has
been no fighting since Casas Grandes
they say.
MADERO AT MADEIRA.
The city of MADEIRA, where there are
big American interests, is 100 miles or
more from Madero's camp. The insur-
recto force there is commanded by Guis-
eppe Garibaldi. an artillery expert, who
has served in italy and South America,
and Capt. Oscar G.. Creighton. an Ameri-
can. There are only 10 Americans with
the rebels, II of them having been killed
and IL taken prisoners at the battle of
Casas Grandes Richards said the total
dead in that fight was 81 killed on both
sides.
Recent reports that force of insurrec-
tos were across the Rio Grande river,
40 miles east of here. presumably threat
ening Juarez were laid at rest by two
newspaper men who visited the alleged
camp yesterday. At the village of Guade-
