MACVEAGH REVOKES
ORDER OF PRESIDENT
Prevents Further Shipment Of
Dynamite Across the
Mexican Border. 81

In the absence from the city of Presi-
dent Taft Secretary MacVeagh today re-
voked an order Of the President, and will
take the case up with the chief magis-
trate upon his return to the city tomor-
row or next day.
1t was ascertained today that Mexican
rebels have seized two carloads of dy-
Mantle shipped from Ell Paso to the San
toy Mining Company. at Chihuahua City.
by the express consent of President Taft.
given May 10. The President consented
to five carloads being shipped to the min
ing company from Ell Paso. The rebels
seized the first two cars almost as soon
as they got across the border into Mex
leo. Secretary MacVeagh today con-
sidered with Assistant Secretary Curtis
the question Of permitting the other
three carloads to be shipped. and decided
that he would telegraph orders to the
customs officials not to let the dynamite
go through pending further orders from
Washington.
There has been a practical suspension
Of traffic between this country and Mex
leo, in and around Juarez. for several
months. under orders from the Presi-
dent, SO as to prevent shipments OF arms
and AMMUNITION to the rebels, and Sec
retary MacVeagh does not wish to run
sives to the rebels.
Huerta Is in Danger.
Military students Of the revolution in
Mexico believe that Gen. Huerta, In COM
mand Of the federal army In the north,
has placed his force in perilous posi-
tion in the eagerness Of his pursuit Of the
defeated army Of Orozco. after the battle
Of Rellano.
His long line Of communication run
ming from the City OF Mexico north
ward to Corallitos is exposed to the
danger OF complete disruption at the
hand OF a force of about 1000 rebels
which has suddenly developed its
presence just west of Torreon and
many miles to the south OF Gen.
Huerta's advance guard.
The State Department learned today
that, apparently aroused to the dan
ger of this situation. the federal COM
mander has dispatched a considerable
force to prevent raid by this rebel
army. which is under the lead Of Gen.
Campo. dashing cavalry officer. The
two armies have been in collision at
Iona, a few miles west OF Torreon, on
the railroad to Durango. but the re-
suit Of the encounter is not yet known.

Premium on Routine Service.

'In fact. this rider tends to put a pre-
MUM upon mere routine service and to
exclude from the highest post in the army
the men whose force. intelligence and
opportunities have brought them quickly
to the front. 1t would result in confining
the choice for this principal staff position
to men who have had the least stan ex-
perience.
TT is currently said that this pro-
vision is aimed at Gen. Leonard Wood.
the present chief of staff. II so. this
is a pretty high price to pay for per-
sonal legislation. What ] am concerned
with primarily Is the effect of such
legislation upon the service. Personal
legislation-the attempt by legisla tion
to affect the status Of individual off,
GERS for good or ill-has been the bane
Of the American army"

Local Democratic Campaign
Comes to an End.
FIGHT HAS BEEN BITTER
Ballot Boxes Will Be Open From
8 to s O'Clock.
MR.. NEWMAN MAKES DENIAL
Saws Statement That His Ticket Will
Prove Anti-Clark Organiza-
ton Is False.

When 1.-The boys" rolled up their sleeves
today and went to work to put the finish
ing touches to the most strenuous local
democratic primary campaign which the
District has seen for several years, the
leaders in the contest opened the last
days battle with an exchange of bomb
shells. What effect the charges and coun-
ter charges that have been made will
after o'clock tonight, when the judges
will start to make returns from the
twenty-five districts. The official count
will be announced at Old Masonic Tenn
pie. From o'clock until o'clock the
ballots will be dropping into the ominous
looking bread boxes which will be used
for ballot boxes.
Champ Clarks national headquarters
issued a statement last night warning the
faithful that the Newman ticket would
"unmask ITSELF and prove to be an anti
Clark organization. E. A. Newman him
self declares that no such thing will oc-
cur However, after the Clark head
quarters indorsed the Costello ticket Sat-
urday afternoon 1t was promised by a
man on the Newman ticket that the fac
ton which lost the Clark emblem would
throw its strength with the Darr unin-
structed list.
Denial Of Mr.. Newman.
Mr. Newman's denial of this is un-
qualified. He issued formal statement
today in which he called the statement
from Clark headquarters deliberate
falsehood. He said:
'T do not believe that any such state
ment was issued from the Champ Clark
headquarters but II 1t was l wish to label
1t as downright fiction. The regular DEM
ocratic organization was first in the field
for Champ Clark and we will win in the
primaries. sending solid delegation TO
Baltimore to vote for Speaker Clark first,
last and all the time until he secures the
Nomination.
80 much of Misrepresentation has
crept into the local democratic contest,
and the Costello supporters seem to have
gained the ear Of the management at
Clark headquarters by this means. that
feel impelled to once more call attention
to the fact that the men who are on our
the democracy in the District OF Column
bia."
Costello Men Work Hard.
The Costello democrats are working tc
beat this combination OF forces, despite
denials to the contrary by Mr.. Newman
They are figuring on q hard fight in the
ninth district. where they are told COM
bination of Newman and Darr forces
will he afer their scalps. Other dis
tr.cts where they fear a combination are
the third. where the Busher ticket has q
fair chance Of winning; the second. the
sixteenth, nineteenth. fourth and fif-
teenth.
In the first district there are two Clark
tickets, according to Walter ]. Costello
and there is evidently a friendly rivalry
only there. although the Costello people
having to indorse one. chose the Moore
ticket. The Perkins ticket, they say on
the Costello side. is just as good Clark
ticket as any Of them. In the sixth dis
trict there is friendly rivalry only.

stimson Points Serious Results.

Secretary Stimson this afternoon said
that the provision in the conference re-
port that no officer shall be permitted to
serve as chief Of staff unless he shall
have served at least ten years as a COM
missioned officer of the line with rank
below that of brigadier general, il adopt
ed, would have consequences of a very
serious character.
Tt would have rendered ineligible
for service as chief Of STAFF" said he,
every one except four Of the nineteen
generals who have served as command
er-in-chief Of the American army since
Gen. Washington. 1t would have dis
qualified Gen. Winfield Scott OF the old
army.
TT would also have disqualified Gems.
Sheridan. Mcclellan, Mcpherson, Meade,
Warren, Halleck, Schofield. o. o. Howard,
James H. Wilson and Horace Porter
among others Of the Union army in the
civil war, and Robert E. Lee, StonewaI
Jackson, Beauregard. Forrest and Joe
Wheeler Of the Confederacy. Gen. Grant
would have barely escaped its restriction
by one years service and Gen. Sherman
by two months.
Coming down to modern times, 1t per-
manently disqualifies practically the en-
tire Engineer Corps-the high honor men
of West Point. 1t disqualifies. for ex-
ample, Col. Goethals and all of his as
sistants on the Panama canal. Gen. Gro
zier. the chief of ordnance; Gen. Funston,
Gen. Francis v. Greene and many other
officers

Cavalry Strength Left Intact.

The conference report left intact the
present cavalry strength Of the army
and struck out the proposed consolida-
tion of the Office establishments of the
Quartermaster general, commissary
general and paymaster general into a
"quartermaster's CORPS"
1t also eliminated the House proposal
that nothing in the bill should be con-
strued to separate any officer from the
army or diminish his rank and struck
out the Senate proposition to give the
Secretary of War discretionary author
ity to fix rates on Alaska cable and tele-
graph messages, according to business de-
veloped during a proposed six-month so
per cent reduction of present rates.
The conference agreed that enlisted men
should not hereafter be allowed double
time for foreign service in computing re-
tirement credit, but allowed additional 10
per cent increase in pay of officers in the
foreign service and an additional % per
cent in pay of enlisted men on foreign
service not including the Panama Canal
Zone
1t agreed that army paymaster
clerks should have the same age limit
for retirement as commissioned off,
GERS; authorized the Secretary Of War to
hereafter determine the amounts due to
claimants for damage and loss of private
property under 1000 each; increased
from $75O.OOO to N,2jO.OOO the appropria-
ton for procuring and issuing field artil-
lery material for the National Guard or
state militia, and provided 100000 for
field artillery for the National Guard.
