confident Of success In the election when

In spite Of all efforts TO keep politics out
of the deliberations of the federation SUI
frage is looming up larger all the time as
a political issue on which the president may
be named and as a possible issue before the
convention Itself before adjournment Mrs
CARPENTER has openly declared herself for
woman suffrage and Mrs. PeDnybacker has
announced that she favors 1t personally
but is not IN favor Of making fight on II
before the convention, because OF the rules
prohibiting the raising of political issues IN
the federation.
OPPOSITION from the South.
There the matter stands with relation to
the candidates, but there Is hint golns
about that the California women, with Dach-
ing from other state delegations. may even
venture TO Introduce a resolution In favor
of equal suffrage In the convention itself.
This 81 done. would be sure to stir up
controversy, as many of the women are
not in favor Of the women using the ballot
The opposition comes chiefly from 'ne
Southern DELEGATIONS, whose objection Is
based on the fact that their enfranchise-
mont would mean also the Acknowledgement
Of the hordes OF ignorant negro women OF
the South.
Mrs Frederick Nathan. OF New York,
who has been mentioned as candidate
for the Presidency, to-day set her loot
down positively on any and all booms III

,,.vico CITY. July 2-No general en-
cement will take place between the
e.dsraI and rebel forces at Bachimba,
..cording to confidential advices re-
lived here to-day by important banking
,nterests. This information corroborates
That has already been learned by the
rr,bune correspondent from government
sources.
II is known here that Orozco has only
mo thousand men left to front General
puerta's advance, and such small force
rsnifestly cannot hold the rebel posi-
,or AZ Bachimba or offer any serious re-
distance to the federals, who yesterday
pushed their vanguard within two miles
Of Bachimba,
The bulk Of the rebel army has been
,ent within the last few days to Casas
Grandes, MADEIRA and other points near
the mountains OF western chihuahua,
through which Orozco hopes to escape
with the remnant Of his troops into So
nora. Food supplies, clothing, ETC., are
being hurried to these places, and the in
ference is that Orozco, rendered des-
perate by the refusal Of the government
70 acceded to his plea for amnesty, will
fee TO the mountains with what few of
his followers may remain.
LOYAL federal agents have ascertained
that Orozco and his chief officers have
deposited in banks at FL Paso and San
Antonio an aggregate Of almost $1,000
600 gold to their personal account. 1t is
evident that the rebel leader and a few
IN his confidence had keen eye for the
main chance The handling Of funds
fell into their hands through the control
they obtained Of Chihuahua. the state
capital.
The reported great losses to the fed

half dozen wounded.

Will You Help to Solve II?

Whether or not their plea can be granted
depends upon the kind hearted people IN
the city and country to whose moral and
financial support the Tribune Fund must
look for the means TO success. If the boon
is to be theirs. 10000 with which to meet
the expenses of the summers work must
he contributed by those who love their fell
low men. In addition to this, invitations
for 5000 children. who cannot be accom-
modated in the Tribune Fresh Air Homes
must be extended by those who VIII re-
ceive the needy little tots into their country
homes RS guests.
The thousands who plead are the ragged,
poverty stricken children Of the poorest
sections Of the city. The case Of every one
of them has been investigated by mis-.
sionary, a hospital nurse, settlement
worker or some other OF that host OF self
sacrificing men and women who spend their
days and nights working for the betterment
of the verv poor. Each case has been
looked into, and the applicant Is known TO
be IN urgent need of the outing asked for.
Pitiful little unfortu.ates. they have nor
earned nor deserved the heritage OF shock
ing deprivation and unwholesome environ
ment amid which the innocent days Of their
childhood are squandered.

ORDINANCE TO
PEANUT HANGING SIGNS

An ordinance concerning the
erection of signs owe streets is to
be amended so as to permit the
erection of desirable electric signs
over sidewalks when they clear the
walk at least thirteen feet. This is
the outcome of numerous violations
of the present ordinance, which pro-
vides that signs and other obstruc-
lions may not extend further than
three feet from any building line.
I he subject vas discussed at length
at the committee session OF the
council last night, at which it was
decided pest to allow erection of
certain signs so long as they did not
IN any way obstruct traffic.
1t is proposed to amend the ordi-
nance so that illuminated signs may
be hung under certain restrictions
and under the supervision of the
building inspector. They must be at
least thirteen feet above the side
walk and street.
Heretofore, 1t is declared, the or
dinance has been violated in a whole
sale manner and storekeepers have
been seeking. each to erect a sign
larger than that of his neighbor or
competitor, causing signs of all sizes
and shapes to be constructed over
sidewalks.

TWO DOZEN EGGS WAS
THE RESTAURANT ORDER

If eggs were eaten every day as
they were yesterday by two Polish
strangers at a Smith street restaur-
ant they would soon be selling for
seventy-two cents apiece instead of
a dozen.
A small, %shrivelled man and a big,
rotund heavyweight, according 10
the story, entered the eating place,
and on being seated each said stimuli
taneously to the waiter, "a dozen
eggs" The maj in the white apron
answered that they did not do a
wholesale dairy business; that they
only sold cooked food at that estab-
lishment, and II they wanted to buy
two dozen of eggs they should go to
a grocery store. The little man in
a squeaky voice informed the res
taurant dancer that they wanted the
eggs cooked, that they could not get
them hard-boiled at a grocery.
"Do you want 'em wrapped" ask
ed the starched-bosomed man. The
little man Informed him that they
would put the chicken fruit away
brought and deposited on the table
the waiter says he beheld a feat
which he had never seen before. The
little man had eaten six eggs, while
the big fellow had stored away ten.
The waiter was nonplussed and
stood by gaping at the sight which
would have rendered famous any
county fair.
The little man finally reached his
limit, declaring he could go no fur
Their, having eaten nine. The big
man, who had gotten away with his
dozen, came to the rescue and swell
ed his record to fifteen.
The waiter stood with staring
eyes during the whole performance
and when they left was heard to say:
well. l guess they're some egg
plants"

BARNS ARE BURNED
AT CRANBURY STATION

Cranbury, Nov. 6.-While flames
were rapidly destroying the large out
buildings of w. P. Ferguson at Gran
bury station, at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning, his neighbors were frantic
ally tearing down n part of the
barn in which were stored dynamite
sticks to be used for blasting stumps
and trees out of fields, in order to
save explosions and prevent the spac-
ious Colonial home of the Fergusons
from being blown up. AS 1t was,
they did not secure all the explosives
before the flames reached them and
a number of small explosions demol-
ished the rest of the structure.
Just how the fire started is IN
known. Mr.. Ferguson and his men
were busy about the place and had
been In the barns and buildings sew
eral times during the morning. 1t
was just about 10 o'clock when fire
was seer coming out of the big barn.
AS the water supply on the Ferguson
place was low. the owner sent out a
call for help from %neighbors and the
fire department. Neighbors respond
ed quickly and a bucket brigade was
formed. The live stock and part of
the machinery was saved and the
workers saw that saving the building
was impossible. While the Cranbury
engine was playing chemicals over
the blaze the neighbors and the
Ferguson staff of workers got busy
in an effort to teal down the part
of the barn where the dynamite was
stored. 1t was a tremendous task as
the timbers we're solid. But the
house was saved through their eff
forts.
As it Ia, the damage will amount
to several thousands Of dollars. The
farmer carried insurance in a Grange
Insurance Company.
