Pittsburg, Feb. 20.-The Voters
league Is preparing additional sensa-
tions here in the school board inves-
tigation. The startling disclosures
showing how the schools are domin-
ated by saloonkeepers, gamblers and
resort keepers. and how the funds
are squarders in the tenderloin and
in picnics where children are forced
to mingle with the worst scum of
the city, are said to only hint
Of future developments.
Indications are that the league has
in its possession incriminating infof-
nation against 206 school board mem
bers in the great city.
Prominent among the sensational
statements made is that many school
board books showing records Of re-
ceipts and expenditures, have been
burned and that others are being con-
signed to the flames in the hope Of
preventing discriminating evidence
being secured against them
Il is further said the league has

Guthrie was for while yesterday
very much in the lead of Juarez as

will in a few days be fighting in The
rebel army had rehearsal that
came near resulting in more damage
than the average battle below the
Rio Grande. without the aid of war
correspondents, censors or moving
picture men there was for a while
staged on the banks Of the peaceful
Cottonwood a "Greaser' embrOglio
that looked promising The interpret
er and padrone lost control and call-
ed for the police and finally the war
riOrs were subdued
At the west side Of the Cottonwood
and along the D. L. & G tracks is To-
Gated a large colony of MeXicans,
many Of whom are awaiting trans
portation to the old country and
who are evidently squirming to get
into the fight against the Diaz poems
The men OF the colony have been dis.
charged by the Santa Fe company
and are waiting here for their pay
which has been ordered for this
week. They struck camp and idle
ness made them restiye.
Yesterday afternoon the fight start

terpreter endeayored to stop the
fight but somebody pushed him so
far toward the river he hesitated
Tent stakes were pulled up and
knives commenced TO flash. Men.
women children and dogs got INTO
the melee and great noise arose.
Slashing blows were struck in every
direction Apparently there was a
general massacre.
Chief Mitchell got hold of four po.
licemen-Kyle, Miller, Dye and Red
mana and rushed them to the battle
ground where some fighting was still
going on Most OF the women had re-
tired to tents and we're alternately
swearing and calling on the saints
The men were lining up for more

lsuaded to quit and to fight no more
until they get over the border. The

The most apparent result was a bad
slash on the lett hand of one woman.
She had q dangerous slash. Many

GRAFTERS BURNING
RECORDS OF CROOKEDNESS AND
PLANNING ANOTHER BIG GRAB

Of this graft, it is declared has been
set at $4,000 which amount ID to be
delivered within six months. Hand
money out of this little fortune, it is
affirmed, aleardy has been paid to the
head grafters.
Exactly similar to the famous coun
cilmanic list of srafters furnished by
John Klen, the Voters league is known
to be in possession Of complete list
Of all members of school boards in
Greater ITttsburg who have been
bought and are open to bribes. Check
marks and crosses are placed oppo-
site the names. Further, it Is af-
firmed, there is a school director in
Pittsburg. who has been an angel
to his fellows like Capt Klein. He
was the distributing agent for a long
time and dispensed the bribe money
for others and to others who quailed
at the responsibility.
Regarding developments it is said
the league will wait possibly three
or four weeks for several things to
happen, before prosecutions of the
alleged grafters are begun.
