 Director McKinley's letter in reply was brief. He wrote:
 q am just in receipt of your letter of the 5th instant, delivered by spe- cial messenger. Since you are pleas ed to apply to your communication so grave term as challenge, 1t be- comes somewhat important to have our respective relations to candidates made clear at the outset.
 q word, therefore, say that have been asked by President Taft to act as director of bureau with head quarters in Washington, organized for the purpose of securing his re-nomina- ton for a second term. Before an- swering your challenge desire to know whether you are acting 9 chairman of the Roosevelt executive committee, either by selection or by authority of Mir. Roosevelt, and also whether your so-called challenge was issued by authority of Mir. Roosevelt, whose nomination for third term as president, understand you and your organization are attempting to secure. Respectfully yours.

Latter Makes Frenzied Verbal Attack on orozco--lmpresses Military Students as Officers to
 Punish Him.

Mexico City, March 5.-The exodus of foreigners continued unabated to- night. The regular north-bound train via Laredo carried two extra sleep ing cars in addition to the two regu- lar ones and several extra day coach es, with all available space occupied. The trains left in two sections. One of the sleepers was filled almost en- tirely with women and children from Fl Orc, a mining camp hundred miles northwest of here. The rail road company, anticipating a possible greater rush for the border in days to come, is conserving it's Pullman | equipment, adding extra cars only when they can be filled to capacity. Railway officials. however, appear to have no fear that the demand will exceed their ability to meet it.
 It is safe to say that fully two thirds of foreign women and dhll dren have left or have made all prep arations to leave and many of the wealthy Mexican families are likewise departing. a
 Members of the German and Brit ish colonies held meetings last night and today to discuss methods of pro cedure for self-defense if it should become necessary. NS definite plan had been arrived at tonight.
 It was semi-ifficially admitted to- day that Orozeo has gone over to the enemy. His desertion was said to be no great surprise to Maderc for the reason that the ex-reyolution- on his last visit to the capitol de manded and was refused 50Je00 pesos to make up 100000 pesos which he claimed the loss and damage sustain cd by him on account of the previous revolution. Fifty thoussnd, 1t was al legged, had already been paid to him on this account. He was said to have left the capitol in a highly dissatis- fled frame of mind, when he return ed to Chihuahua, and soon thereafter rendered his resignation as chief of the Maderista forces.
 Madero worked himself into a pas sion in the course of an address to about 100 students from the military academy at the national palace today over the disloyalty of Orozco. 1nci- dentally, he gave the first official acknowledgment that his erstwhile chief had deserted the Madero stan dard.
 In exhorting the students to full fill their patriotic mission manfully, he held Orozco up to scorn as trai- tor and an ingrate.
 ''He has ridiculed the constitution al authority of the nation" said the president, in an excited tone. "He thinks he can lightly toss aside the obligation of his allegiance but I am going to punish him for his folly l am sending you to administer the cas- tignaticn his conduct merits"
 The cadets were fourth year stu dents from the capital. About 70 of them have received commissions and will leave at once for the campaign against Orozco.

 of the Hearing.

Washington, March 5.--C. r.

TRADE SITUATION
ON THE MAINLAND

Henry Clews of New York, in his
special letter Of July s. says:
In commercial circles more atten-
ton is paid to crops than politics. We
have had another week OF favorable
growing weather in nearly all parts Of
the country, and the agricultural out
look has been growing steadily better
for the last three or four weeks. The
confidence thus impaired will tend to
encourage merchants to stock up for
a good fall trade. which is sure to fol-
low another profitable harvest Our
fruit crop is large. So. too, is the hay
crop. and prices are high. Both cot
ton and corn are late, but their condi-
ton is otherwise good and with a
week or two or warm weather a large
yield is almost inevitable Commod-
ity prices are high and show a gen.
eral advancing tendency; chiefly, how
ever. in metals and products, the cost
of which the consumer only feels very
remotely. In many cases food prod
ucts are considerably lower than last
winter owing to this being the growing
season and quantities frequently album
dant. Meat is a conspicuous excep-
ton. A slight cessation of activity has
been noticed in the iron trade, but
prices are strong at the recent adj
vance and steel producers should be
able to make somewhat better show
ing than was possible at the recent low
level. Steel prices, however. are still
very much below the high prices of
two years ago. Copper is strong and
higher owing partly to better con-
sumptive demand. but largely. to the
combined manipulation of foreign and
domestic interests
The railroad situation shows steady
improvement Several roads report de-
cided gains in gross. although net re-
suits are sometimes unsatisfactory ow-
ing to the large increase in expenscs
Probably there will be no strike on
part of the operators whose demands
for better wages are now in course
of arbitration. Bank cIearings indicate
a larger commercial activity in all
parts of the country; the weekly in
creases being maintained in spite Of
lessened speculative activity. There
has been no abatement in the expan-
sion of our foreign trade. which COM
pared with a year ago continues to
show liberal gains In both imports and
exports In the fiscal year just ended
their combined total was 81 ,00O, 0OO, 900,
gain of s424.000.O0O over last year.
The growth of our exports of steel
products is particularly gratifying. not
only because it compensates for the
loss in agricultural products. but it
demonstrates our increasing ability to
compete with Great Britain and Ger
many in the foreign markets. So long
as our steel industry is so well able
to meet foreign competition it need
have little fear of any change in the
tariff"
