State in Biu Forum.

Newark, n j., May 25.-The entire
state of New Jersey is a big poIiti-
cal forum. Two days of campaigning
for primary votes have put a keen
edge on the expectation with which
the commonwealth awaits the result
of the voting next Tuesday. Every
day the candidates have attacked
their work with fresh vigOr and by
primary day there will be scarcely a
hamlet, however remote, that has not
heard one of the aspirants for the
republican presidential nomination.
Today Theodore Roosevelt and
President Taft had speaking programs
that occupied their time close to mid
night, and Senator LaFollette planned
to make several speeches near this
city. The candidates were favored by
ideal summer weather

&C. 6P. MAY USE
A.,B.SA. TRACKS
UNDERSTOOD THAT TRAFFIC AR
RANGEMENTS WILL BE MADE
BETWEEN TWO LINES.

That the Georgia Coast and Pied
mont railroad is figuring on entering
Brunswick at the earliest possible
time, is best evidenced by the fact
that already negotiations have been
opened with the A., B. & A. railroad
for trackage right and terminal facili-
ties at this port, and if the negotia-
tions are carried out successfully, the
new road will use the terminals of
the A, B. & A. at the south end and
at the same time will use many of
the sidetracks of the road in this
city.
AS is we'll known, the A., B. & A.
now has large and commodious ter
minals, which are to be enlarged at
once, and the business of the new
road can very easily be handled at
these wharves. 1t is understood that
a conference has already been held
and mutual arrangements have about
been reached by officials of the two
lines.

Savannah.
Brunswick.

The high score of the afternoon was
made by T. J. Wright, of the local
club, who made a round of nine holes
In 50 strokes. This is an unusually
small score and has been euualed on
the local links on only one or two
previous occasions.
The Brunswick club is much en-
couraged over its victory, the mem
bers realizing that Savannah has one
OF the strongest teams in the South.
The same team which contested here
yesterday has in the past defeated
Atlanta, Charleston, Macon, Jackson
vile and other cities, and the local
golfers have just cause to be proud
of their victory.
Visitors Entertained.
During the day the Savannah visi-
tors were entertained by local mem
bers. At the golf club yesterday aft
ern0on large number of ladies were
pres ent and assisted in the entertain
ing. They also watched the progress
of the game with much interest.
The Savannah players were very
much pleased with the trip to Bruins
wick and announced that they would
at once make arrangements for an
other match between the two teams
to be played on the Savannah links.
Just when the game will be arranged
it not yet known, but the local club
is looking forward to the trip with
much interest.

Bru said this morning that the gov
ernment fully expected to receive
most favorable reports from the front
before night. 1t is believed the gov
ernment is trying to open negotiations
with the rebels for the purpose of ar
ranging terms of peace. This, in all
probability, will be based on an am
nesty to the rebels.
Want to Kill President Gomez.
Havana, Cuba, May 25.-It is re-
ported today that authorities have
discovered conspiracy to kill Presi-
dent Gomez. Several arrests have
been made, and a number of prison
ers are held on suspicion.
Though news is strictly censured
and very little news is available, yet
enough has been learned to indicate
condition of anarchy in the eastern
part of the island.
In one province rebellious negroes
are perpetrating outrages upon wo-
men and children. In many districts
wires have been cut, making COM
munication impossible.
Foreigners all over the island are
panic stricken, and are seeking ref
uge in cities and large country houses
any many country houses are being
turned into blockhouses and loyal
employees being armed for protection.
There are many rumors today of
American and English men being
killed, but owing to strict censorship
it is impossible to verify any of these
reports.
1t is also reported that negroes
from Haiti are landing in Cuba with
arms and ammunition for the rebels,

He Is Capturing the
Rebel Positions.

Mexico City, Mexico. July 4.-The di-
vision under Gen. Huerta yesterday
captured all the important positions
held by the rebels at Bachimba, which
they had selected for their last stand,
according to official advices received
here from the front.
From what Gen. Huerta says were
the rebel headquarters yesterday, he
reported as follows last night:
AT 8 a m, today, we began the bat
tie with the enemy around Bachimba-
The fighting lasted until $50 p. m The
engagement has been brilliant 1t has
been a great day for the federal armies
the division under my command has
obtained a great victory.
Tomorrow 1 shall advance further,
using all possible precaution, as the
railway track is full of mines. 1 have
all of the most important positions that
the rebels had selected for their last
stand. I congratulate you in the name
Of the division
AT this moment one of the brigade
Of cavalry in the vanguard is having
a battle with the enemy. We have cap
tured three mortars and some prison
ers and also have some loss to regret.
I Will inform you later of their number,
as the division is not yet together. Up
tc date we have extracted eight or nine
mines planted by the enemy"

REBELS BRING MONEY
TOJUAREZWEDNESDAY
Wagonload of Pesos Stored
in Col. OrozcO'S Home
Under Guard.

The movement Of papers and money
from Chihuahua was started Wednes-
day night, when on the evening pas
senger train $4,000, all in Mexican sill
yer, and several bags OF papers were
brought to the city.
A heavy guard Of rebel soldiers oc-
companied the money, which was in
large bags Of several hundred each, and
deposited in the home of Col. Pascual
Orozco- The soldiers still remain on
guard over it at his home. The silver
made a wagOnlOad-
The papers likewise were deposited
at the home Of the commanderinchief
Of the town.
The movement of the money and
papers is believed to be the beginning
of the general movement to Juarez
which will necessarily follow a defeat
at Bachimba. In order to get to the
Galeana district, if the rebels make a
stand there, they must come by way of
Juarez, on account Of the destruction
Of the immense bridge on the Mexico
North Western railroad below MADEIRA,
which viii take 10 days to replace.
Then, too, the rebel leaders in Juarez
say that the official government OF
the rebels will come to Juarez in case
Of the -federals driving their men back
at Bachimba, and the movement Of pa
pers and money is simply the beginning
of this

REBELS PERMIT ORE
CARS TO COME OVER
Ban on Mexican Central
Cars Coming to Ell Paso
Lifted.

The first Mexican Central railroad
rolling stock to be allowed to cross
to FL Paso since the rebels have been
in control of Juarez was permitted by
them to be brought TO this city Tues
day night, when 55 Mexican National
freight cars loaded with ore for the
American Smelling and Refining COM
pany crossed the border. The permits
sion was given in order that the
freight rates for the shipment might
be collected by the rebels.
MOI a single Mexican Central car
either freight or passenger has crossed
to FL Paso since the railroad officials
kidnapped the passenger train and
rushed it to this side Immediately
after the rebels took the town. The
rebels came to FL Paso with a switch
engine at the time in order to get
the equipment, but the officials on
this side confiscated the switch engine
from them also. Sine that time there
has been a ban on all cars being
brought over and all through shipments
have had to be transferred to Mexico
North Western cars before they could
be brought to FL PasO, by order of the
rebels.
a rail on the Mexican Central line
has been torn up near the interna-
tional railroad bridge and there has
not been so far any cars moved on
this bridge in weeks.

UPON
JUAREZ IS
DELAYED
Federals Forced to Surren-
der Their Plan of Striking
at the Border City.
REBELS SLIP INTO
STATE OF SONORA

Aqua Prieta, Son, 5uIy 1.-The fed
eral movement against the rebels in
Chihuahua has been stopped by the ad-
vance Of the rebels into Sonora. The
federals, defeated in recent fighting IN
Sonora, their wounded now in Augua
Prieta, realize that their plan to in
wade Chihuahua from the west cannot
at present be carried out and that they
will do well if they muster enough
men to defend the towns of Cananea,
Ell Tigre, NacOzari, Moctezuma and
others.
The federals have not been equipped
for such a campaign as had been
planned for them. They have but one
small field piece and two rapid IRE
guns, although it is announced in fed
eraI quarters that additional artillery
is coming from GUaymas- No supply
stations have been located between
here and the state Of Chihuahua for the
men or their horses. Then, at all the
passes leading into the state Of Chi
huahua. rebels are waiting for the fed
erals. Thus the movement against
Juarez. that was to result in the down
fall of the Mexican border city while
the rebel main army was being
whipped to pieces" at Bachimba, has
failed for the present at least.
Rebel victories at Bavispe, San Diego
and the occupation of Bacarao, south
east of here, indicate that already
large force of rebels is invading Son
ora on the same line of march the fed
erals had intended to follow into Chi
huahUs, from Aqua Prieta.
After a 15-hour fight at Bavispe, the
small federal garrison retired toward
Morelas, near the Arizona border. Reb-
els claim that more than so government
volunteers were killed. Wounded mon
arriving from Bavispe said the federals
were defeated and forced to retire.
All movements of the Sonora army
have been cancelled until a new plan Of
campaign can be arranged. Giuseppe
Garibaldi, who was to have left for
his base at Yzabal, still remains at mis-
quarters at the Gadsden hotel Gen.
Sanjinez and Gen. Blanco, who were
also to leave for the south, still re-
main in Aqua Prieta. Vice governor
Gayou has gone to FL Paso for a con-
ference with Madero officials. While
the plans for the Sonora federal army
were to invade Chihuahua, indications
now point that It viii be the move
for these forces to remain in their own
territory to defend it.

sent to congressman William Sulzer,
chairman of the foreign relations com
nnittee about the manner the search
Of women going to Juarez was being
made at the Two International bridges.

Women were taken from street cars
and forced TO so through = Ianc of sol
diers, Mexican spies, immi grafton and

was conducted in the most courteous
manner, the rebels say, 1t was the en-
barassment attendant upon the pre-
liminaries to which the women cb-
jected.
Congressman Sulzer is said to have
got busy in Washington and the war
department called off the practice of
searching women at the bridges sun

serted on good authority that Mrs. Pas
cual OrOzco, wife of the rebel chieftain,
spent several days in Sanderson this
week. leaving yesterday presumab bly,
for san Angelo by private conveyance.
An American man reported that an
automobile passed him when he was

an was a passenger. She quickly
transferred her possession to the auto

On reaching town, he told the story

can secret service men have been here
several days.

with her children last week; her pic
ture was printed in the papers there

United States Troops and

Have Clash.

If Orozco's force reterats to Juarez,
the Texas state militia will be or
dered to FL Paso- This has been DEF
initely recided, it is said, by governor
Colquitt and. through adjutant gen
eral Henry Hutchins, he is being kept
informed as to the developments in the
Mexican situation. The adjutant gen
eral has been expected to arrive in
Ell Paso each day this week. During
his absence, Capt. Wallace T. Down
ing, of company X, is keeping the
state officials informed as to what is
being done in uareZ.
Should the state militia be ordered
to FL Paso, there is a possibility Of
conflict in authority between the
state and government troops should
there be trouble in uarez. One United
