REPULsE FEDERALs IN MOST I'M.
PoRTANT BATTLE OF THE
MEXICAN REVOLUTION.
After Seventeen Hours of Almost In.
cessant Fighting the Commander
Of Rebel Forces leaves His
Men and Seeks Protection Of
Americans.

Aqua Prieta, Mexico.-The most Inn
portant battle Of the Mexican revolu-
ton was fought here Monday between
1000 federals under command OF
Lieutenant Colonel Diaz and 1000
rebels under Balasario Garcia, and re-
suited in the repulse of the former.
After seventeen hours of almost in
cessant fighting, nightfall found the
rebels holding almost every position
they had at d~aybreak, although after
nightfall the federals carried the bat
tie to the borders of the town.
At nightfall two federal machine
guns were in possession Of the enemy
and they suffered a loss estimated by
the rebels as at least 200 killed and
wounded. The rebels gave their own
loss at twenty.
From the beginning Of the battle,
regardless of the warning given by
the United States government to the
leaders of both forces, a rain of bull
let's poured into the American town
of Douglas, and when The day was
over it was found that seven nOn-com-
batants, residents of that city, had
been wounded. 1t was a day almost
Of terror in Douglas.
B~alasario Garcia, commander In
chief Of the rebels at Aqua Prieta,
surrendered himself to Captain eau
jot of the First United States cavalry
at Douglas, Ariz., Monday night. He
came to the line and explained that
he was giving himself into the GUS
tody of the American authorities as
an individual, and not as commander
of the rebels.
The fighting began at daybreak,
when the government forces advanced
upon the revolutionary stronghold in
Aqua Prieta. The fighting was fierce,
machine guns being used by the fed
erals. Both sides fought like old cam
paigners.

PITIFuL STORIES FROM CHINA.
Food That Slaves Eat Far More valu-
able Than Their Lives.

STANDARDIZATION stories of suf-
fering in the famine-stricken areas of
China reach this city daily. Sixty
girls were offered for sale at one
small town without a purchaser, be-
cause the food the slaves eat was
more valuable than their lives.
Heavy rains partly have reflooded
the famine district for the third time
in two years, rendering extremely
difficult the importation of grain for
the relief OF the starving thousands.
in some cases the water is so high
that 1t prevents the gathering of
herbs in the fields and cuts the peo-
pie off from their relief stations.

ontgomery, January 16.-(Special) Twenty five hundred soldiers of the Alabama National Guard, marching in a faultless line, occasioned pandemo- nium in this city today on every street where the parade touched. Never be- fore in the history of Montgomery has the militia. of the state shown itself to such a decided advantage as on the occasion of Governor O'NeaIs 5, tnau- gural and In the memory of citizens of Alabama's capital there was never such unity of movement and har- mony of action as at todays celebra- tion
 The reserve military force of the state was under the command of Brig Gen. Bibb Graves, who rode at the head of the column on a fiery charger The line back of him, which held the military companies, consist ed of parts of the First, Second and Third regiments, artillery and cavalry In addition to these the signal and hospital corps took part in the celc- bration It was estimated that the ma Jority of the entire state guard mem bership was on hand.
 feature was the presence in the parade of 700 Auburn cadets and the Industrial Schooi band and members of the Induvtrial school at East Lake.
 Distinct Feature
 Presence of the O'Neal Marching club of Mobile in the column added zest to the events of the day and made the occasion unique. The committee .n charge of the club was composed of A. c. Quina, A. s. Lyons, George H. Dachorvich, D. J. Callaghan, George J. Flournoy and John Holley. Two hundred and fifty citizens of Mobile constituted the membership of the club The visitors came to Montgom- cry on special train. 4
 Prior to the inaugural ceremonies at the capitol the Mobilians presented Mrs. o'Neal with a magnificent basket of flowers At o'clock this afternoon the same organization serenaded Judge E. B.

ARGU N MEN'l HEARD
 IN RATE CASES

Washington, January 1G.-Arguments in the western rate cases were begun today before the interstate commerce comms- sion. The cases differ from the eastern cases in that the latter involve only or practically class rates; while the west ern cases involve only commodity rates.
 Several months ago the carriers in Western Trunk Line association territory filed affidavts with the commission mak ing general advances on many commodi- ties in that territory.
 w. s. Horton, counsel for the Illinois Central, indicated that during the last | ten years as compared with the previous ten years the damages to freight on the Illinois Central has increased more than S4, O000 000: the damage to persons more than s2, O00. .000, and increase had occurred from the putting into effect of regulatory laws of the national and state govern ments. The return upon the whole prop erty of the Illinois Central in 1910, MT. Horton suggested was only AS per cent. This, he maintained, was wholly inade- quate to the needs of the property and an injustice to the stockholders.
 ''Theories may be advanced and state- ments may be made concerning the in- cerase in operating expenses of the rail- roads," said MT Horton. but I think the railroads in our territory have demon- strated the necessity of a more than per cent increase in income.'

ALABAMA SOLDIERS MAKE
 BIG HIT AT INAUGURAL
BY BERRYMAN G. BETTY

More than 200 automobiles rendezvoused around the capitol during the progress of the ceremony.
 Troops Reviewed The entire military of the state was re- viewed by Governor O'Neal immediately after the celebrations at the capitol, his excellency on several occasions applaud ing the soldiers as they filed past him with their martial stride. Review of the | troops occupied much of the time of the afternoon, causing the chief executive to defer his luncheon hour long past the usual hour
 Late in the afternoon the new governor got chance to take up his duties at the capitol. Lee Cowart has already been installed as private secretary to the new executive, though John D. McNeel will remain at the office as long as his serv- ices are required
 T. M. Rogers, an attorney of Birmng- ham, has taken up duties in the execu- tive's office as one of the secretaries.
 Whistles Blow Welcome
 Whistles and bells of the city sounded welcome to the governor at the hour of noon. when the line of march was formed in front of the Exchange hotel. The demonstration reminded one of New Year, when at the hour of midnight the cid year is hustled out of existence
 Many of these whistles were emitting shrielSs even when the exercises were be- gun at the capitol. At Is was, the noise i1 the capitol grounds was so pronounced that it was hard for those not in the i immediate presence of the speakers to hear the message which they brought.

"The ROsnry"

It is with mixed feelings that one sits through The Rosary, at the Biiou. and one wonders involuntarily what the author intended. Did he mean to write a play appealing entirely to the emotions, or did he mean to inject a lesson into its lines?
 He did both. because there is enough in the way of concealed villainy to please the earnest seeker after excite ment with the spot light used at the psychological moment to emphasize some remark by Father Kelly, and 1t Is all very theatrc and therefore very appealing to overwrought emotions. Father Brian Kelly Is everywhere present and utters the sentiments sup posedly the proper ones for a priest. and at times expresses himself as would one of the church militant rather than the church triumphant. These human remarks gain him much aplause, how ever, which Is what the author desires most of all.
 There Is nothing in it to offend the most ardent adherent of the Catholic of ritualistic church. Were more priests like Father Kelly more souls would be saved and there would be deal of proselytlng, because the average per son does not like heinz the subject of preachments. and this Father Kelly studtously avoids, being rather, very human.
 The cast is adequate and BIosser Jennings makes good Father Kelly. Ida Root Gordon has her hands full with two roles, but does them both unusually well.
 The play is '
