Mexicali Mex, March q. - The
news that Simon Berthold was wound
ed in a fight with the federals near
Alamo. together with the information
that the government force at Tecate
had been doubled again, created
alarm in the rebel garrison at Mexi-
cali.
General Leyva dispatched twenty
FIVE mounted men under Captain
Francisco Quiada TO hold Picachos
Pass against the possible advance of
the federals from Tecate, or the ap-
proach of the main army by way of
the west side of Laguna Salada.
The fate OF Berthold Is uncertain.
The information that Berthold had
been wounded in the leg came as a
personal message to Leyva. 1t is said
that one rebel and four federals were
killed in battle that took place
March %,
1t is said that only scouts from the
main army OF the federals were enr
gagged.
Leyva Is waiting with ill-concealed
anxiety. news from his assistant Cap
tain John Mcdonald. who was wound
ed in the leg today, was suffering in
tensely tonight as the result of scant
medical attention. The man who did
the shooting is an Orozco, and 1t is
said he is a relative of the insurrecto
leader in chihuahua.
Fugitive Mexican officials in Calex-
leo today complained to Captain Bah
cack that Orozco was not shooting at
fleeing rebels, but at the homes OF
the Mexcans on the American side.
1t is said that Mcdonald was shot
accidentally while this was going on.
Many complaints are coming in of
depredatlons on the part of starving
rebels from Tecate. 1t is said they
invaded several herds Of cattle be-
longing to Americans. The latter,
owning extensive plantations, are pre-

rection or that the United States i'm

Washington, March 27.-A princi
pie that Is likely to govern in many
cases was laid down today by the
interstate commerce commission In a
decision of the complaint of the Kaul
Lumber company of Alabama
against the Central of Georgia rail-
way and other carriers.
The company built a railway line
connecting its mills on the line of the
Central of Georgia with the timber
land. 1t entered into an arrange
ment with the railroad by which II
received five cents hundred pounds
on all timber hauled to the junction.
Later the road advanced its rates
on lumber from Atlanta points to
Ohio river transfers two cents hun
dred The lumber company asked
reparation on shipments of two cents
hundred. In denying the request
the commission held:
THAT without deciding whether

rial for the Kaul Lumber company, II

New York, March 27.-Fixing the
blame for the loss of l41 lives in the
Washington place fire of Saturday
drew to focus today the energies OF
the district attorneys staff, the fire
marshall the coroner, the star- Ia
Dor department and Borough Presi-
dent McAneny of Manhattan.
Dozens of investigators collected
information. Grand jurymen turn
ed personal probers. and an additional
grand jury in a formal resolution
presented to the court of general ses-
sions offered their aid to the district
attorney and declared that someone
should be prosecuted for the disaster.
What the investigators found. Evil
dence that doors at exits swung In
ward the crumpled fire escape In
the air shaft; the one fire escape
blocked by shutters when opened; an
empty water tank on the roof, and
the practice prevalent among cutters
of lighting cigarettes a few moments
before quitting time. All this and
what Is yet to be ferreted out will be
placed speedily before the grand jury.
The tenement house department
summoned owners of half dozen
faulty structures to police court as a
preliminary step to a far reaching in
vestigation of tenements. one man
was held for violating the law and
other cases, it was announced, will be
pressed tomorrow. Fire Marshal
Beeres summoned the proprietors OF
the Triangle Waist company and sew
eral employees to testify at a public
investigation largely to inquire into
the truth that doors leading to fire es-
capes were blocked
The fire marshal said. he was con-
vinced that q cigarette lighted by a
cutter and thrown into a heap Of
clippings had started the fire.
A relief fund for the sufferers IL
headed by a $4,000 donation from
Andrew Carnegie. The United He
brew Charities, the Austrian Free Bu-
rial association and other organiza-
tions came to the fore with aid. Thir-
ty-three bodies. most of them shorn
of all semblance of human FORM. lie
unidentified tonight at the charities
pier morgue. Twelve persons. most
OF them girls in their teens. are
fighting for life in hospitals.
Half hundred funeral trains trail
cd through the east side and the Itai-
ian district near the factory today,
and as many more are sceduled for
tomorrow. The unidentified will be
buried in single grave, but will be
held as long as possible to give rela-
tives and friends an opportunity to
claim them.
Final figures place the death list
at 142. OF these 1873 bodies were ta-
ken from the scene of the disaster and
eight died in hospitals. The list will
be swelled, surgeons say, by others
who. still living, have no chance to
recover

Albany, n. Y, March 27-The sec
ond democratic legislative caucus
failed tonight to select a candidate for
United states senator and was called
to reconvene tomorrow night Twen-
ty-iive candidates were voted for,
William f. Sheehan leading with a
vote of twenty -eight-less than one
third of those taking part. Those re-
ceiving the next highest votes We're:
Augustus Van Wyck, 7; lsador Straus,
5; John j. Fitzgerald, 6, and Daniel
r. Cohalan, 4. Governor Dix re-
ceived one vote.
Ninety of the 116 democratic MEM
hers OF the legislature answered the
roll call.
Several members who have figured
as strong advocates of Mr.. Sheehans
candidacy advocated, in declaring
their votes, that his election had
ceased TO be possibility and that
the reconvening of the caucus re-
leased them from whatever pledges
that might have been incurred by at
tendance upon the first caucus.
This was the general impression
among the Sheehan advocates. who
expressed the opinion that the re-
convening of the caucus tomorrow
night would mark the beginning OF
the end of the deadlock.
Several members scored the insur-
gents for their failure to attend the
caucus. The general opinion in both
the democratic camps was that Il
democratic senator would be elected
in time to take his seat when the
congress convenes a week from to-
morrow.
