mated from the contest. The Presi
dent told callers today that TO Mr.
Roosevelt he owed his nomination in
1903 and to Mr.. Roosevelt more thar
to any other man he owed his re-nom
| nation last Saturday night.
Although some Taft leaders profess
there never was any danger Of defect
tions in their ranks, others are known
to nave openly talked of compromise
candidate and to have made advances
to some Of the adherants of Colone
Roosevelt. According 10 rerortsthes'

For a Few Hours Sunday She Kept
Things Alive.

Juarez-For a few hours Sunday a
Mexican Joan of Arc was the dictator
of this town. With 10 rebel soldiers
marching at the heels Of her horse,
she rode up to the police station and
disarmed the provisional chief of po-
lice and six of his men. The rebels
rode away mounted on the police
horses.
The woman fearlessly entered stores
and demanded and received provi-
sions. And then shortly before day
light she rode out of town with her
admiring followers. The woman,
young and beautiful, is said to be the
wife of Colonel Lazro Alanis, the rebel
commander, who is operating around
Palomas along the border to the west.
1t is believed that this militant
spouse goes to join her husband after
her raid on this town, which is unpro-
tected except by few police installed
at the departure last week of Orozco's
rebels.
