Long Fight.
San Diego. Cal, May l0.-Tia Juana,
Lower California. near the California
line. was captured by the insurrectos
after a fight which lasted a day and a
night.
Many are dead and wounded on
both sides. II is impossible to learn
definitely how many have been killed,
as the United States troops at the
line refuse to allow any one to cross
into the Mexican town.
The attack was a complete surprise
to the federal forces Confident that
the hanking party Of forty men sent
out Of Tia Juana had forced the reb-
els to retire the defenders we're rest
ing in supposed security when the as
sault came. All but one or two Of the
federal hanking party are thought to
have been killed or wounded. The
federal force pressed on and was
drawn into a trap and practically ex-
terminated
In this engagement Sam Wool

why MAYOR GAYN0R
BELIEVES IN GOD

Why Mayor Gaynor believes in God
was expounded from the Grace Metho-

nay night by Rev. C. F. Reisner, the
pastor, who had written prominent men
In New York for their reasons for be-
lieving in diety.
The Mayors answer follows:
"Why do | believe in the Father
God? Because | cannot help it. / simply
know that there is a God, and that set
ties il with me. have absolute conf
dence in Him, and am willing to submit
to whatever He wills in respect of me.
You also ask. What good comes from
reading the Bible?' An immense deal of
good. 1t soothes you and makes you
content and charitable. might add
that il educates you and gives you a
good literary style, and that is another
matter. Going to church gives people
steady habits, and makes them prudent
and careful, and makes them vote care
fully. Church members make stable
nucleus for society"

The fight at Saltillo has been in

fought at its height when the north
bound train left that city.
The engagement at Conception was
short and decisive. The meager de
tails OF the fight there, which were
picked up at the station when the
train was passing through, indicate
that the federals were overwhelmed
and that the insurrectos were on the
point of entering into possession OF

STATE SUITS DROPPED

The suits of the Commonwealth
against former State Treasurer JOS
Mayo. Jr.. and others, were stricken
from the docket of the Richmond
City Circuit Court under operation
of the five years law. no motion
having been made by either party
within that period.
The action is taken without pre-
iudice to the right of the State
TO renew the suit against the heirs
and bondsmen OF the former treas
urer within twelve months
The first suit was against Joseph
Mayo. Jr., Gen. VIM Malone and
James NJ. Taylor. the latter two his
bondsmen. and the second suit
against all OF those parties. and DR..
A. ~ Wexford. another surety
All OF the parties TO the suit are
now dead
The former State treasurer was
charged with having defaulted in
the sum of 1888 in 1884. and
suit was brought against him, and
his bondsmen. The case was nevei
tried. though many efforts were
made to secure compromise settle
ment. Attorney-General Williams ex-
pressed the view that il would be
useless at this late date to pro-
coed against the heirs and bonds
men OF the former defaulting treas
urer.
The record does not show that
there was any criminal prosecution
against the defaulting treasurer
but 1t was not long after the espi-
sode that the State stopped taking
personal surety, and required its
officials to be bonded with some rec
ognized bonding company. Mayo
was elected State treasurer for the
term beginning January !. 1874. Civ
