DESPITE RAINFALL
BIG CROPS EXPECTED
MOISTURE AND COOL WEATHER
MAKE FARMERS UNEASY
Barley Fields Suffer During Storm,
and Some Wheat Laid Low, Ac-
cortiing TO Reports.

Although indications for a bumper
the past twenty years, the farmers of
Umatilla county are not resting cas-
lily. Their dreams of golden yields
are disturbed by a nightmare. This
particular nightmare is caused by
the recent and present cold weather
and Intermittent showers which are
not only delaying harvest but con.
stantly threatening damage to the
grain.
The peculiar situation prevails that
while most of the heavy land ranch
ers are complaining of the late rains
the light land farmers are calling old
Jupiter Pluvius blessed. 1t is pos
sible that the damage done to the
former will more than be equalized
by the benefit to the latter provid-
ing no further storms are due.
Grain Beaten Down.
The heavy wind and rain storm of
Monday night was responsible for no
inconsiderable damage in the best
grain districts of the county, accord
ing to reports from various farmers.
Many fields of barley We're beaten
flat and in spots in nearly every
wheat field the same effect is notice
able. Just how much of this grain
will rise again is a matter of con-
lecture. At best the yield will be
affected.
In the light lands however the
rain was needed as the grain was
about week behind what it should
| have been.
Harvest Is Delayed.
! Unquestionably there will be a late
harvest in this county as a result OF
the lack of sunshine and warmth
Cutting and threshing usually be,
gin in the light land district immedi
ately after the Fourth and in tn,
heavier land about July 10. Their,
will be a delay of a week or ten day:
in both sections under the best con
ditions as the grain is far from be
ing ripe Most of the farmers nov
are busy haying and getting theil
combines in working order.
After all, barring any unforeseen
disaster, this county Will harvest {
bumper crop this season.

Orozco placed the number of his
own dead In this fight at two and
his wounded at four. He thought
that the twenty-six patients in the
Federal hospital at Juarez inclu-
ded the Federal losses in wounded
but insists that they lost six or
eight killed instead of one, as Off
clally reported. He said thatsome
of his men saw the Federals busy
burying the dead.
The rebel forces consists entire
ly of mounted infantry. Those
not with Orozco three miles west
of here are in the neigborhood of
Baucha or on scouting duty in the
mountains. Unlike the Federal
troops, there are no women camp
followers with the insurrectos.
President Diaz has no organized
commissary. In its place there are
women. Each soldier is given a
few centavos day with which to
buy food. This they turn over to
the women, who forage the coun-
try, cook tortillas and buy corn and
jerked beef, if available. More
often than not they have children
with them. They are officially
recognized by the War Depart
ment, which furnishes them pas
sage on troop trains. Two of them
were killed at Bauche.
1t was~a spectacle both ludicrous
and pathetic to see a dozen of
them, mostly barefooted, running
after the troops as they advanced
toward the rebel camp. Their
faces bore evidences of anxiety,
as most of them are married to
men in the ranks. There is no
danger or privation they will not
face. Residents of Mexico say,
too, that they are more cruel than
their men folk, aud say that usual
ly it is they who strip the dead, a
common practice.
There are three Americans with
Orozco at present. Two of them
former Philippine veterans, were
with another detachment to-day,
and the third, Lawrence Converse,
of Glendora, CAL, was on the
American side accidentally during
the engagement. He was unable
to return in time to share in the
fight.

cactus, soap weed, sage brush and
boulders.
1t was about 3 o'clock this after
noon when Colonel Rabago march
ed out along the river road on the
Mexican side. The eastern wing
of Orozco's force opened up fire
when the foot soldiers appeared
on crest about 600 yards distant.
The Federals halted in a compact
mass, but escaped injury because
the ''thirty-thirties" carried by the
revolutionists are not effective at
that distance. They returned the
fire for fifteen minutes. They
then turned and retreated at dog
trot. The mounted men of the
Federals did not come within
range.
The crowd of sightseers of the
American side bear witness to the
celebrity of the retreat, for the Fed
erals were in full view for nearly
a mile.
As soon as news of the impend-
ing fight reached Colonel Sharpe,
commanding the Twenty-third
United States Infantry, he added
re-enforcements to the guard at
the smelter, to prevent possible
violation of American neutrality.
The skirmish had been over for
an hour when an insurrectionist,
clutching a 5 peso bill in his hand,
crossed to the American side. He
had been sent to buy dinner for
Orozco. A soldier turned him
back, fearing that he wished to
purchase ammunition. Again on
the Mexican side, he encountered
some newspaper men, who guaran-
teed the innocence of his mission.
He bought his supplies under their
supervision and was sent back
grinning.
Orozco was content with repul-
sing the enemy. After the re-
treat of the latter, he searched the
ground thoroughly, but discovered
no signs of blood letting, Seen
after the skirmish. Orozco stated
that while there had been no loss
of life, he was glad of the moral
effect of repulsing the enemy.
"The moral effect was needed.
Orozco's stock had dropped sew
eral points among his sympatizers,
first, when lie allowed Rabago to
elude him at Bauche Sunday, and,
second, for failing to attack Juarez
on the heels of that officer.
In the course of conversation to-
day, he gave his side of the story
for the first time. He had waited
at Bauche for two days for Raba-
go. He was without food or water.
His men clamored for an advance
upon Juarez, he said. asserting
that Rabago was myth, or had
been engaged further south by
General Blanco.
Leaving fifty men on guard
where two rails had been removed,
he started north. His men were
nearly exhausted from thirst,
hunger and fatigue, and his horses
unable to move faster than de-
ljected walk. He had been gone an
hour when Rabago's train arrived.
The rebel rear guard engaged the
Federals at intervals during the
night. Rabago meanwhile moved
into the trenches which Orozco
had deserted. He had built them,
and knew their strength. A skirm-
ish fire was maintained at intervals
Sunday. Then, by daring move,
protecting his rear with rapid fire
guns, Rabago escaped into pass
on the hills.
The jaded insurrectos were un-
able to follow. Instead they turn.

The "War" is On in Mexico
An Exhibition" Battle is Witnessed by 1000 Americans
of Ell Paso Between the Rebels and the Regulars
at the Town Juarez Across the Rio Grande.

I'll IaSO, lex, req. line HrSt
battle of Juarez between Federal
troops and insurrectos was exhib-
tied here to-day. Exhibited" is
the proper word, for no one was
hurt on either side, and the "exhi-
bition' was viewed by thousand
or more Ell Pasoans, who lined the
bank of the Rio Grande on the
American side about three miles
west of the city.
The exchange of missiles occu-
pied about fifteen minutes, during
which about 200 shots were fired.
Tonight the Federals are be-
hind the walls of the Cathedral of
Guadeloupe, the barracks and the
bullring at Juarez, across the river
from here. Orozco remains in
possession of the position which
he occupied at noon and held
against the Federal advance. He
said, in an interview with the As
sociated Press correspondent, that
he intends to attack Juarez, but
will await the arrival of General
Blanco, with $50 men. He stated
he expected the latter at any mo-
ment.
Orozco's present force in the vi
cinity of Juarez numbers under
600 men. probably $50. Of these
800 were with him in the skirmish
this afternoon. The Federal fore
es, by actual count, number 1S4,
100 foot soldiers and "a mounted
infantrymen. They took with
them no artillery, and Orozco has
none.
The insurrecto leader and his
men spent last night at ranch
known as Rancho Flores, usually
inhabited by a few horses and a
herd of goats.
Orozco quit the ranch during the
morning, and by moving through
the deep arroyos which scar the
desert everywhere, reached a new
position on the hills along the
river. Here the correspondent
who had been on his trail since
6aybreak discovered him.
He and six of his lieutenants
met the visitors halfway upon the
boulder-strewn mountain side. He
carried rifle like his men. He
looked care-worn, but determined.
He answered questions only after
deliberation, and often evasively.
He was obviously of no mind to
to tell his plans. He borrowed
some ink for his fountain pen, and
also atablet. He expressed wish
to visit Ell Paso to get square
meal"
His 800 men were scattered along
the hills for three-quarters of a
mile. Some of them had the
horses on the other side of the
range, watering them at the river.
Some one leaving Ell Paso in an
automobile coincident with the de-
partule of the Federals from Jua-
req under Colonel Rabago, gave
them the warning. Making a
trumpet with his hands, the Ell
Pasoan shouted get busy, the
troops are coming"
The scout machine was followed
quickly by scores of others, each
with load, many passengers be-
ing women. Others came on horse
back, carriages, express wagons,
hay racks, bicycles and hundreds
by the street car line which runs
out to the smelter. Other hun
dreds on foot arrived, breathless,
after it was all over except an oc-
casional "Vive Madero," echoing
from the hills. The ''revoltos" had
resumed the interrupted task of
watering the horses.

AUTO EXPERT finds HEAVY TRADE
OF Won HAMM. YOUNGCO. DESERVED

When questioned about the Buick
and Overland lines the tourist stat
ed that these two cars at popular
prices had startled the country by
their immense sales and good stay
ing qualities. Both of these concerns
are making many different types OF
cars and are sold away ahead OF their
production. In putting out 5000 80
horsepower touring car of medium
size the Overland has ventured far
Their into the depths Of the small pro-
At and large sales game than any 9TH
er manufacturer has ever dared to do.
This car Is such pronounced sue
cess that 1t Is reaching the farthest
limits of civilization. More Of these
cars are being sold on the mainland
than any other three makes Of same
priced cars.
The Hupmobile was the next car
on the floor which was under the ra-
pid-flre gun of the mainland critic.
1t Is known to all parties interested
that the Hup runabout is the most
appreciated boon that the busy man
and shopper has ever come in contact
with. The ease of handling, the phe-
1omenal low cost of up-keep and the
small space that the cars take up are
very Interesting topics Of CONVERSE
ton.
When the tourist was informed that
The Won Hamm- Young Company was
also agent for the Pope Hartford he
went on to say that although the 1912
product had not arrived In Honolulu
rs yet It was one of the fastest and
most powerful cars built today. He
also stated that the Pope Six bids fair
to make great hit this season owing
20 the great success these ears have
had In the past season.
The mainlander commented on the
number Of Baker Electrics In use in
Honolulu and stated that he consid-
cred the island to be an ideal spot for
electrics.
After the many complimentary re-
marks and the severe criticism OF the
mainland dealer, Honolulu should in
deed be very proud OF the fine grade
OF machines which The Won Hamm-
Young Company are putting on the
local market. ~
