BOTH CANDIDATES
ARE CLAIMING
VICTORY
Fraud Alleged in Vote For
Legislative Candidates
in Juarez District

Both candidates for the state legis-
lature for the districts of Braves and
Galeana, in which Ciudad Juarez Is sit
uated, are claiming the election, al
though the official returns are not in.
The supporters of DR.. Rodarte, the
10th Of May political club candidate,
say that he has been elected, while the
Independent Political club claim the
victory for their candidate. Sebastian
Vargas, sr.
Sebastian Vargas, ST.. has carried six
out of. the 13 voting districts in Ciudad
Juarez, according to an unofficial re-
port. DIR. Rodarte carried seven Of the
districts and it is possible that he
might have slight majority in the
city. In the outlying districts as in the
districts of Braves and Galeana, Mr.
Vargas is led to believe that he is the
winner, as already he has received
message from friends in all Of the
towns, which say that the majority of
votes were cast in his favor.
The messages which have been re-
ceived by Mr.. Vargas say that he has
carried San Augustin, Guadalupe. Villa
Ahumada, San Pedro, San Diego, Cor
ra1itos, Nueva Casas Grandes, Casas
Grandes, Pearson and FL Vale. In
Casas Grandes and all through the
Galeana district the messages said that
the vote had been almost unanimous
for him. -sra.
As in the old system OF Mexican
elections, there have been a few cases
of frauds found in the election Of last
Sunday and it is probable that a pros
ecution may follow Names of can
didates have been scratched from the
ballots, it is claimed. and the names
of other candidates have replaced
them. Several cases of this kind have
been discovered, it is said. in looking
over the ballots, where a mans favor
lite candidate has replaced the one OF
the voter -.

STATEMENT IS ISSUED
Attorneys Satisfied About Validity of Issue But There Seems to Be Some Doubt About the
 Deficiency

| In a formal statement issued yesterday that the proposed sale of s1, ,30o,000 of Bir- mingham deficiency bonds will be post poned temporarily. The sale was to have taken place next Tuesday. Tn the state ment 1t was pointed out that Commits sioner James Weatherly had been in New
 York one week on the bond situation. He was empowered to employ Dillon, Thompson & Clay, attorneys, whose opin- ion is highly regarded by bond houses. Previously Caldwell & Maschlick had been employed.
 | The reason given for the postponement was the desire of the attorneys to make
 inspection of the city's books and the lcomptroller's report.
 President Exum late yesterday after noon received a message from Comnis- sioner Weatherly asking City Comptroller Abbott to come on to New York at once and bring the necessary financial data The bond attorneys have passed favor ably on the validity of the issue but doubt was expressed about the status of the citys deficiency and 1t is to get this mat ter thoroughly straightened out that takes the city comptroller to New York. The official statement made by the com mission yesterday is as follows:
 "Commissoner Weatherly is in New York in conference with attorneys rel ative to the bond issue. He wires that the report will be favorable to the vali- dty of the issue, but attorneys there de- sire an opportunity to verify the records as shown by the city comptroller's re. port as to the amount of the deficiency. This, of course, will necessitate a post ponement of the sale of the bonds to a future date, which will be named later.'
