HUNTING FOR KELLY
WHO ESCORTED GIRL
Father of Jesse Belle and
Police Anxious to
Find Him.

II anybody has seen Kelly he will con-
fer a favor on Inspector Boardman, OF
detective headquarters, and Jesse c.
Sprouse, farmer of Broad Run, Va,
IL the fact is communicated to them
There is a doubt of Kelly's presence
in Washington. II he is here 1t means
trouble. For Sprouse says Kelly came
to Washington with his fifteen-year-old
daughter, Jessie Belle, who fed the
parental roof at Broad Run on an early
morning train. She says Kelly, whose
first name she admitted with reluctance
while at the house of detention is Jim,
came with her only as far as Fairfax.
Sprouse doesn't believe it. Neither does
the conductor Of the train on which
Jessie Travelled. The conductor says
Kelly got off the train at Seventh and
K streets, while Jessie Belle went on to
Union Station, where she was arrested
by Policeman Nusoaum.
The girl, however, could not be shak-
en-. Kelly, she declares acted as her
2'horoughfare, there being none at
Broad Run. The distance was a matter
of six or eight miles, and Jessie Belle
said she was afraid to walk 1t in the
dark of the morning. Because 1t was
still dark when the station was reached,
Jessie Belle says she prevailed uno'
Kelly. who is married man, thirty
years old, and a jockey at county fairs,
to ride with her as far as Fairfax.
The police continued their search for
<elly all day, 1t being decided that her
father could not take her home until
the department is sure that no one has
seen Kelly. So anxious are they to find
him they sent the following telegram
to the sheriff at Fairfax:
Have you seen Jim Kelly? II you
have seen him wire detective head
quarters at Washington"

Tobacco Men Urge
Action By Lodge

Senator L@lge is being urged by indie
pendent tobacco manufacturers all over
the country to take up his bill prohibit
ing the use of coupons as an advertis-
ing scheme, practice now engaged in
by the Tobacco trust, TO drive the small
er competitors out of the market.
This bill was introduced by Senator
Lodge early in the session, and is now
before the Senate Committee on FL
nance. No action has been taken on 1t
since it was referred, and the movement
now on proposes that the Senator rescue
the measure and make an effort to get
vote on it. The independents say that
it will pass, if reported out of the COM
mittee.
In their representations to Senator
Lodge the independent tobacco manu-
facturers say that is is impossible for
small manufacturer to compete with the
trust in offering prizes for purchases,
and. therefore, this means Of advertising
is in restraint of trade.

Direct Election Now
Appears Doomed

Direct election of Senators is ap-
parently doomed.
Little prospest now appears of Con-
Gress adopting the resolution for
submission of the constitutional
amendment for direct election to the
different State legislatures
For a time the outlook was favor
able to the adoption of the resolution,
but a canvass has been made and 1t
has been found there are enough
votes in the Senate to adopt the Suth-
erland amendment. This amendment
would give the Federal Government
control over the Senatorial cleo
tions.
Southern Senators are fearful of
this. Their minds run back to the
old days of force bills. They fear
that If the amendment should go
through in such a form they would
find themselves penalized for refus-
ing to allow the negroes to vote.
If the Sutherland amendment is
adopted, nearly all the Senate Demo-
Gratis will vote against the measure
This will defeat it.

Remainder of Miss Hough-

Another operation must be performed
upon Miss Alice V. Houghton, who suf-
fered the loss of her scalp in an ac-
cident at the Census office January 81
1t became known today that only half

day. Skin will be grated on the re-
naming portion Of the wound within
the next few days.
Skin was removed from two persons in
Emergency Hospital yesterday after
noon in order that it could be placed
upon Miss Houghton. One of those
who submitted to the operation was her
brother, Albert NJ. Houghton, a patent
attorney, who lives at 2O1 Kalorama
road The identity of the other person
could not be learned further than that
II was a woman, and she is not a MEM
ber OF the HoughtOn family.

MAIL CLERKS HOPE
FOR BETTER HOURS
Conference Will Probably
Result in Adjustment of
Differences.

Representatives OF the railway mail
clerks, headed by President J. T. Cam
field. of the Railway Mail Association,
left Washington today feeling that their
conference with the Postmaster General
and other postal authorities will result
in btterment of conditions for the
men they represent.
In an order issued by the Postoffice
Department about three months ago in
structions were given that the average
working days of the railway clerks
should be six and oneAhalf hours. Under
the agreement reached at the two con-
ferences held by the executive commit.
tee of the Railway Mail Association
and the postal authorities the clerks on
the heavy" runs will! have from five
hours and forty-flve minutes to six
hours as the average working day.
The question of longer hours, no pay
for extra work on days off and compell-
ing clerks to work at terminal points
constituted the principal grievance Mr.
Garfield declared today that he believes
that this complaint will be amicably ad-
justed as a consequence of the confer
ence.
All questions and grievances consid-
cred at the conferences will be acted
upon at the annual convention of the
Railway Mail Association in Syracuse,
June 8, according to President Garfield.
Officials Of the Postoffice Department
declare that efficiency in the service has
been the aim of the Postmaster General,
and that economy has been a second
For several days the executive COM
mittee of the Railway Mail Association,
thirteen officers of division
branches, together with President Can
field, have been in Washington, at the
invitation of Second Assistant Postmas-
ter General Joseph Stewart, to present
the complaint of the clerks. The confer
ences closed last evening, following a
personal interview with Postmaster Cen
eral Hitchcock.

Way North to Relief

HARASSED ON ALL
SIDES BY INSURGENTS
Orozco and Soto Move South and
Battle Is Looked
for Soon.

Ell PASO, Tex, Feb. 11-General Ma
varro was definitely located today at
San Jose, seventy-three miles south of
Jaurez. on the National Railway of Mex
leo. He sent word that he is fighting
his way north with 1,5O0 men to relieve
JuareZ, but is being harassed on all
sides by small bands of rebels All sec
ton men and rancheros along the line
are being impressed by him, and it is
expected that his force will be brought
up to 1000 men before he reaches
Juarez.
Rebels Moving South.
The main body of revolutionists under
General Soto and General Orozco at
once began TO move south, and it seems
possible today that a battle may be
. fought. With the moving of the revo-
lutionary forces south all bridges on
the Mexican Northwestern are being
burned, and every preCaution is being
taken to keep the federals in the north
from being sent to the relief of Navarro,
or to harass the revolutionary forces
on their march south.
The Mexican Central railroad has
been repaired as far north as Ahumada,
eighty-three miles below Ciudad Juarez,
according to dispatches received by Of
ticialS of the railroad today The work
is being pushed. and within few days
II is expected that train service can be
resumed to the border. At present pas
senger trains are running only as far
north as Montezuma.
Blanco and 0rozco At Odds.
Confirmation of the jealousy said to
exist between BlanCo and Orozco is con-
tanned in dispatches received here
Blanco is said to be ambitious to. be
the leader Of the revolt, and both he
and Orozco are said to be eager ,u
head the new republic they hope to es-
tablish Espinoza is quoted as saying
that BlanCo would like to make him
self military president of the republic,
and that he acknowledges no leader
least of all Francisco l. Madero. Asl
additional evidence of friction between
the leaders, the same dispatches quoted
the text of a letter said to have borne
the signature of PascuaI Orozco, jr.
which was found recently in the pocket
of dead revolutiOnist by General Ma
Varro.
The letter was addressed to Francisco
Salido, one of the rebel leaders. 1t fol- !
