Very recently Murphy has sup

requiring an inspection at least
annually of all weights and meas

using a scale or measure not In ac-

down by the state of Washington
He favored the collection Of gar
bage and It's destruction as a gen
eral fund charge rather than by the
toll system, which has become obso-

He fathered the bill providing for
the purchase or condemnation by
the city Of the property of the Sc
attic, Renton e. Southern Railway
Company and the extension OF the
system from the Denny Hill re.

TO RELIEVE OJlNAGA.
Force of 1000 Federal Cavalry Sent
From Chihuahua.

Chihuahua, April 19.-One thousand
federal cavalry men left here today
for the relief of Ojinaga. They will
proceed by train to Palomir, thence so
miles overland to Ojinaga. The In
surrecto activity in the north found
most of the available Federal troops
here unprepared. Now there is a gem
eral outward movement to meet the
Insurrectos.
Word from the interior of the per-
sonal participation of Francisco /.
Madero. the Insurrecto leader in the
fighting, makes it less probable that
he will change his movements in order
to confer with his father on peace
proposals. 1t is possible however, that
the father may be able to place him
self in touch with the leader. Peace
possibilities. as viewed here, are grow
ing more remotes.
1t developed today that the IA
prisoners on their last days
march to Chihuahua from Casas
Grandes had nothing to eat. For So
hours they were without food as they
marched over the desert through blind
ing sand storms. This was due to the
eXigencies of war and not to neglect.
All the prisoners are in excellent
health and good spirits.

REBELS IN Aqua PRlETA.
Little Band Invades City and Fires
Railroad Station.

Aqua Prieta Mexico. April 10
Shortly after daylight today daring
band of Insurrectos, numbering only a
half dozen or so, stole into Aqua Prieta
and set fire to the Nacozari Railroad
station which was destroyed with its
valuable contents. The Federals fired
upon the invaders and two or three of
them were killed.
Five loaded freight cars also were
burned. The freight depot was filled
with valuable freight.
Officials of the railroad rushed a
switch engine into the freight yards
and as many cars as possible were
shifted out of danger There was no
water for fire fighting in Aqua Prieta.
Whether the men who fired the depot
had been hiding under it since the
evacuation yesterday or had dashed
across the line from the American side
is not known.
Mexican Federal soldiers carried
several dead on blankets from the
ruins of the depot to the bull ring.
These are believed to have been the
bodies of rebels who applied the torch
or of refugees who had been hiding in
the building
The column of Insurrectos which
was swinging around into the Nacozari
valley at dusk last night could not be
seen today. Neither had the column
which WAS observed at the south of
the mountain pass leading toward
Cananea advanced into the Sulphur
Springs valley along the American
line. 1t had either gone into camp in
the pass or continued to the westward.
At Cienzas springs, IL miles east of
Aqua Prieta, a band of rebels was re-
ported.
Rebels in Douglas declare that their
headquarters has accurate information
that Gen Blanco with large force is
advancing on Aqua Prieta. Other
rebel reports are that Gen. Orozco is
with his army. These statements are
not verified and NAV he prpundleSS
