cans arriving overland from that place
last night state that the reason Blanco
has not already joined Orozco in front

it is currently reported in Casas

Blanco would at once advance north.

FIND A BIG LEAK.
Contractors Unable to Locate RespOn-
sibiIity for Mills Building Losses.

One of the big leaks which every con-
tracing firm experiences was met by
Douglas & Evans in the erection of the
new Mills building and it is probable
that their loss of material and tools
from this job will run into the hun
dreds of dollars In fact the firm has
no foundation on which to base an esti-
mate of their probable losses Since early
in January the firm has had a detec-
tive in their employ, but it is almost
impossible to connect the losses with
any individual.
Early last fall material began to dis
appear from the site Of the new build
ing at Ninth and Kansas avenue. A
systematic search revealed some OF
this material stored on vacant lots.
Property owners stated that teamsters
had brought the material to the
grounds and asked permission to store
it temporarily for the Douglas & Ev-
ans. This request was usually granted
but the contractors had made no such
requests. In almost every instance
the men who owned the ground were
unable to identify the teamsters and
the closest watch of the men on the
job failed to- reveal the workings OF
the organization.
The contractors believe their losses
resulted from a close organization OF
men who held positions of trust. 1t is
believed that in many instances. the
material was sold before it was found
Dy Ln0 CONTAGIOUS anu that Inc money
was divided among the men in the

of the contracting firm, "but they are
so closely organized and have operated
so successfully that we have been un-
able to attach the entire blame on any
| one man."

What caused the explosion will nev-

Gelatine powder is largely composed
