Aqua Prieta, Mex. April 49,
Shortly after daylight today a daring
band Of insurrectos, numbering only
9 halfa dozen or so, stole into Aqua
Prteta and set fire to the Nacozaeu
railroad station which was DESTROYED,
with its valuable contents. The fed

or three Of them were killed.
Five loaded freight cars were also
burned. The freight depot was filled
with goods Of every description in

Il have spoken at several English
meetings recently, as have the other

they were twenty years ago.

the federal and rebel forces are in
progress, the opinion was expressed
here today that opportune action had
been taken by both: sides in the Mexi-
can revolution to prevent compli-
cation with the United States.
The fact that the negotiations for
an armistic have been confined to the
state Of Chihuahua; aud the northern
part Of the Sonoroa is interpreed in
two ways here. On one hand It is
believed that the rebels are propos-
ing partial laying down Of their
arms to enable them to maintain
their fight in the other states. though
consenting at the same time to in
activity along the American border.
On the other hand, strong belief
exists that Francisco l. Madero, Jr.,
has little control. over the people who
have risen in revolt in the other
states.

Second Place

Nothing can stop the New Haven
club from coping the honors in the
State Basketball league. They put the
nails on the bunting last evening by
trouncing the local boys in a 47-20
contest up in the Elm City. The race
is yet pretty, with either the locals,
Naugatuck or Derby good for second
place. On the fact of former games,
Bridgeport looks good for runner up
honors. The New Haven Palladium
says of last evenings game:
"a large crowd of fans saw the fast
New Haven basketball team defeat
the Blue Ribbons of Bridgeport by
the score of 47-20. The visitors put
up their usual fast game, and it was
corker from the start. It was much
faster than the score indicates, and
it had the crowd on its feet from the
beginning. The shooting of SAKE was
a brilliant feature Of the game, he

also blazed forth. and they played
rings around the visitors. On the
whole the locals showed up much
faster than on previous occasions. The
visitors worked hard, but they seemed
to fall asleep at the end of the game.

shooting of Burdick was good. The

was also pleasing. The score:

LINCOLN BANQUET

paper Correspondent and
Takes Center OF Stage
Shot Dozens of Fake Photos and
Scrubbed as Speakers
Talk.

All Mr.. J. Otheman needed last night
was a little wooden hobbie horse to
become in his own mind a real war
correspondent. Mr.. Otheman had
room on the second floor of the Allan
tic hotel. AS he went to his room he
spied the G. A. R. veterans. Sons Of
Veterans and their friends attending a
banquet in honor Of Abraham Lincoln.
A short time before William F. Hill
ton of Hartford began to speak the
guests saw short man stand up on
a chair at the rear of the speakers
table and point a kodak at the diners
The photographer who did not look
unlike Vice-President Sherman moved
about the room and apparently took
about three dozen ctures.
AS he posed from the top Of a chair
each time the men seated about the
was forthcoming.
''How do you take pictures without
a flashlight asked several people ?"
81 have special French film that
takes pictures in any kind Of light"
replied the busy photographer and he
hurried around the dining room to
take another picture.
Later the busy man put up the
camera and got out a note book and
taking position back of the speakers
he scrubbed incessantly stopping only
to applaud with his note book. He was
not bothering anybody. Everyone
wondered who he was. Later he told
the people that he represented the
New York Herald and told them they
would see his story next Sunday un>
der G. A. r. notes. AS for the pic
lures he promised to send some to ev-
erybody.
Someone introduced the active news
paper correspondent to Mayor Buck
ineham, ''Fine city you have here
mayor" he said. "the hosp tails are
simply great. They had me for the
me right. You know I don't think I'll
develop these pictures. This stuff
got tonight may not be published at
all. We often send men as far as
Brooklyn and Philadelphia for news
and don't use it. ! am sort of spe-
cial representative you know. 1t is
sort of a boost for the paper just to
have me around"
The mayor crossed his fingers and
edged off into the crowd. Later the
war correspondent sad he was J..
Otheman the representative of a New
York State cannery and that he
earned an honest dollar writing stories
and taking pictures when he was not
selling corn, beans and peas. He de-
clared that he was just staying over
to attend the Eintracht Ball tonight,
While the diners were waiting for
their hats and coats they saw the
owner of the French film kodak beat
ing it for his room with a pitcher Of
ice water. "Th,s is all that am drink
ing tonight, gentlemen" he said smil-
ing as he passed a gathering of kind
old veterans to whom he had promis-
ed to send photographs in few days.

of President Diaz and is assisting
him in his endeavors to crush the rev.

American military and civil officers
assert that they are merely enforcing
the neutrality laws without regard to
Diaz or the revolutionists. but the
revolutionists profess to see in the

forces. 1t is certain that Orozco is
encamped at Samalhuca where he Is
in a position to block completely any
further advance by Navarro. The
Mexican Federal officials at Juarez
believe that Navarro. after yester-
days reported engagement. will not
attempt to cut his way through
Orozco but rather will attempt to get
around him.
AS soon as Navarro gets within
striking distance of Juarez. the Fed
erals in that city will send out ar
mored trains to assist him. Half a
dozen of these have been prepared,
all lined with heavy steel and pro-
vided with loopholes for riflemen and
larger holes through which field ar
tillery may be fired. These trains
are expected to sally forth end en-

Navarro appears.
