RESIDENTS ARE RETURNING
Rebel Attack on Juarez Not Expected
at Present.

Ell Paso, Tex, Feb. 10.-Although
the insurgent forces of Orozco, Alaon-
co and Blanco are believed to be in
the immediate vicinity of Juarez the
residents of that city fear no attack,
for they are returning in large num-
bers
That there will be no attack on
Juarez at present seems evident from
the disposition of the insurgent forces
and there is a growing belief that
Orozco will not enter Juarez In the
immediate future.
If Navarro, at the head of 1000 sea-
soned veterans, manages to keep up
and enter Juarez, it is not believed
here that the insurgent forces will
ever venture to attack them. With
the loyal troops already in the city,
reinforced by Navarro's veterans,
fighting behind earthworks, it is not
believed Orozco's unframed guerrilla
fighters could be persuaded to try to
take Juarez by assault.

ACCORDING TO
OFFICIAL REPORTS
Million Chinese Likely to Die
Of Starvation

Washington, Feb. 10.-Every incom-
ing mail brings to the state depart
ment narrowing tales of distress
among the unfortunate Chinese. The
department has made public a report
from Consul Gracey at Nanking en-
closing letters from some of the mis-
sionaries in the famine districts. Rev.
e. C. Lobenstiene found almost two
thirds of the 100000 people in the
county of Hwaijuan destitute and not
more than 20 per cent of the popula-
ton could provide for themselves un-
aided through the winter and spring.
In the whole famine district Loben-
stiene estimated that at least 1000, ,000
will die of starvation if not aided One
cent day is the smallest amount that
will support life for each person, SO
that $1,500,000 will be necessary to
carry the unfortunates along for the
five months they will require help. The
poor are trying to sell their children
but they can scarcely obtain pittance
wet weather came (his letter was
dated Dec. % last) the death rate

Mr.. Caldwell, the acting consul at
Dalny, telegraphed there have been
sixty-six cases and sixty deaths from
plague at that port up to date. The
cases are decreasing, though there is
no quarantine.

full Corporations to Control Elections.
Washington, Feb. 10.-Sharply an
tagonizing the position OF Senator
Lodge on the use of corporation in
fiuence in politics, Senator Joseph l..
Bristow of Kansas addressed the SEN
ate in support of the resolution pro-
viding for an amendment to the Con-
stitution permitting the election of
United States senators by direct vote
Of the people.
How" he asked, "can the distin-
guished senator entertain such a de
lusion when at this very hour there
are a number OF states deadlocked in
pending senatorial elections, caused
solely by the dogged and persistent de-
termination of certain powerful finan-
cial interests to control the election
of senators from those states?"
He declared that there never had
been time when these interests were
more vigilant and grasping for politi-
cal power and dominion than now.
Mr.. Bristow asserted further that
the great financial systems have ac-
quired too much power in the govern
ment of the United States, with the re-
suit that they had used their power to
enrich themselves at the expense of
the general public. He added:
Unless change is made not only
IN the method of electing senator's, but
also in the manner of selecting dele
gates to the national conventions, the
rising tide of unrest and dissatisfac-
ton that prevails throughout the coun-
try today will rapidly increase. Men
will not become less greedy for wealth
and power. The great financial inter.
ests will not abate their efforts to con-
troll, not only the business, but the
politics of the country"

WILL WE'D IN THE SPRING
Last Chapter in Eames-De Gorgorza
Romance

Paris, Feb. 1e.-@The last chapter in
the remarkable romance of Emma
Eames and Emilio de Gogorza, which
has interested the reading public of
two continents, will be written early
next spring, when the prima donna
and the operate baritone will be mar
ried.
Chief among the obstacles to an
earlier marriage has been the attitude
of Nine. Elsa Neumoegan de GogorZa,
who was separated from her husband
in 1909. De Gogorza obtained a di-
vorce through the French courts some
time ago. But before Nine. de Go
gorza allowed her husband to obtain
a divorce, it is said, she insisted that
ample provision be made for her.

Beveridge Supports Agree
ment in Senate.
URGES PROMPT APPROVAL

Says Pending Pact Is Only the First
Move to Unite Two Countries Inti-
mately Allied in kinship and Inter
est-If This Opening Wedge Proves
Successful II is Certain to Be Ex-
tended, He Declares.
Washington, Feb 10.-The first gun
in the congressional battle over Ca
madam reciprocity was fired in the
senate. Senator Beveridge of Indiana,
progressive, was the marksman and
he lined up on the side of the admin
istration. He did not make pretense
of representing others of the progress
sive Republican camp.
Mr.. Beveridge welcomed the com
pact as the first concrete evidence of
the establishment of such relations
with Canada as he thought the United
States should maintain with a coun-
try so closely adjoined physically and
with people so intimately allied with
Americans in kinship and interest.
Contending for the importance of the
principle involved he urged the neces.
sity for prompt and decided action.
The details, he said, were of com
paratively little significance and might
well be left to future adjustment

ness? Or shall we make permanent

countries?"
Announces General Position.
Mr.. Beveridge said these were the
real questions which must be answer.
ed in dealing with the reciprocal
agreement. His general position was
then announced as follows:
IF some think that the agreement
is not all that it should be because OF
the treatment of a few articles, the
answer is that even if this objection

it is negligible when compared with
the importance of getting this great
national policy established.
'As a matter of fact it will be found
that the objection to a few scattered
items is not sound; for this is mat
ter of agreement, and mutual conces-
sions are necessary. Even so, our
government has done surprisingly well
in the concessions 1t has secured.
IF the agreement is enacted into
law and proves beneficial TO the ma
tion as a whole, it is certain to be
extended as time goes on and the two
peoples experience its good effect. If
on the other hand, it should prove
harmful to the nation as whole, il
