TWO DAYS OF STUBBORN
FIGHTING DOWN IN MEXICO

FL Paso, April The most i'm
portant battle of the Mexican insur-
rection fought so far in the state Of
sonora has ended, after two days of
stubborn fighting, which began Mon
gay near the towns Of Ures and San
Rafael.
Although the rebels outnumbered
tne federals, their ammunition became
exhausted during the prolonged bat
tie' while the federals were able to
OBTAIN reinforcements and additional
ammunition from Hermosillo, and the
insurrectos were compelled to abandon
Inc held. Although the losses on both
sides were heavy, reports Of the killed
and injured were greatly exaggerated.
ana 1t is not known that more than
1oO were killed on both sides.
The reports that the federals had
gained decisive victory in the first
days fight, which were issued by Mex.
lcan authorities, have been denied BY
nall advices from Hermosillo. The
FEDERAL wounded have been brought
TO Hermosillo.

WIckERSHAM WANTS MORE
ANTITRUST LEGISLATION

Washington, d. c., April ga new
weapon is being forged out of the
Governments experiences in dealing
with monopolies of trade and com
binations Of capital, which, it is
learned, Attorney General Wicker.
sham hopes to present to Congress
in the belief that it will be incorpor.
ated into law. Just what shape this
proposed legislation will take has not
been made known.
Combinations Of all kinds, through
processes of reorganization, have man
aged to keep just a step ahead of fed
eral prosecution, and in many cases
the work of the Department of JUS
tice. therefore, has not always been
SO completely effective as was de-
sired
With view to meeting the problem
as it exists and as it promises to de-
velop. the Attorney General within
the next few months may take the
most important steps toward regula-
ton of combinations and monopolies
since the passage of the Sherman
law.
Several instances of alleged COM
binations which the Department of
Justice so far has been powerless to
attack, because there was no law ap-
plicable to them, have been brought
to the attention of the Attorney Gen
eral Prominent among them is the
so-called money trust" in New York.
1t was pointed out that where a year
ago the great financial interests of
New York were classified into three
