LEE EDWARDS
PRAISES SPORT
IN PENSACOLA
NEW ORLEANS SPORT WRITER
SAYS THE RACES HERE WERE
BEST EVER WITNESSED ON
GULF COAST.

r. Lee Edwards, sporting editor of
the New Orleans States, who was in
Pensacola during the regatta, has the
following to say of the races:
THE first day of the annual regatta
of the Pensacola Yacht and Motor
Boat Clubs 1912 fegatta was a dis
tinct success, however viewed, and 1t
is plainly evident that the Southern
Gulf Coast Yachting Association has
been given new life by its latest
acquisition.
The day was an ideal one for such
sport, the weather and water being
glorious. Over twenty eight motor
craft participated in the contests,
many of which furnished exceedingly
close races between two and in some
instances more of the craft which
started in each class.
There were ten to one more peo-
pie and craft for the occasion than
have ever turned out to witness motor
boat or sailing races at West End. In
cidentally, there was a deal more
evidence of deep, intelligent interest
and enthusiasm on the part of the
spectators, who crowded and pammed
every vantage point on the piers,
wharves and ship and pleasure craft,
which bordered the splendid Pensa-
cola bay.
In so far as New Orleans craft are
concerned, the order of things gen.
orally was totally reversed. 1t has
been next to impossible to induce such
craft as Fleet Captain Mackie's SPLEEN
did Elizabeth, Bob McCluer's speedy
Tokay and L. A. Morphy's handsome
Comet to take part in motor boat
races of the S. 7. c., yet they all en-
tered, started and finished in the races
here today.
Then again New Orleans craft have
been wont to land in first place in all
OF the races away from, or near, home
In which they participated, with mo-
notonous. regularity. In today's races
the nearest they could come to win
ming was second place, taken by To-
kay; sixth place taken by Elizabeth
and seventh place captured by Comet,
in fleet Of eight starters in the race
for cabin cruisers for the Gulf States
championship, a handicap event at
fifteen miles, to which craft of any
length were eligible"

ROYALiSTS PLAY A RUSE

but in the end it cost them dearly.
They returned to the city Of Chaves,
IN the province of Tras-os Monies,
while being pursued to the town of
Montalegre, in the same province.
They arrived unsuspected by the re-
publicans and bombarded Chaves with
their newly acquired artillery bombs.
The republican troops discovered their
error later and returned TO defend the
besieged town.
The royalists, who outnumbered the
republicans by to 1, consisted Of two
united bands headed by Captain Hen

Camacho. They retreated slowly, leav-
ing a number Of dead and wounded
on the field and finally disappeared
into the mountains, some OF them

Juarez, Mex, July 9.-Col. Pascual
Orozco, ST., in command of the garri-
son here, was in-frequent communi-
cation about the Mormon situation
early today with his son, General Pas
cual Orozco, Jr., who was at En-
cinillas, 1S4 miles south of here. Gen
eral Orozco is reported to have or,
dered a continuance" of his announced
policy of earlier days in the revolu-
ton that foreigners should not be mo-
Tested. It was stated on good au-
thority that General Orozco would
leave Encinillas during the day, arriv-
ing in Juarez late in the afternoon for
a conference with his father and
Felipe Gutierrez, rebel governor of the
state of Chihuahua.
A serious phase of the situation,
however, is the lack of communica-
ton between Casas Grandes and the
insurrecto bands now threatening
Colonia Moreolos and CoIonia Oaxaca.
1t is feared that with the rebels near
Colonia Moreolos, trouble might be
precipitated before orders from the
rebel chief could be delivered, a dis
lance of nearly 100 miles from Casas
Grandes to Colonia Moreolos, where
the Mormons today modified to de-
fend their property.
