DIXIE REPAIR FUND is SMALL
ONLY $AIi Avail able for Relief of
Portage Flood PeriI-SpeciaI Act
of Legislature Is Necessary.

Madison.-A delegation from Por-
tage held a conference here with
Gov McGovern, State Treasurer Dahl
and Attorney General Bancroft with
regard to the anticipated flood dan
ger along the Wisconsin river.
State aid is needed to repair the
river levees, and it is understood that
if the governor calls special session
of the Legislature and considers the
situation at Portage of sufficient mo-
ment, that an appropriation will be.
suggested at that time.
Prior to 1904 all money received
by the state from the sale of swamp
land was deposited in a state drain
age fund for reformation purposes.
At that time little financial aid was
necessary, and after a balance of
100000 had accumulated, the mon
ey was turned over to the state gen.
eral fund. The drainage fund at
present amounts to but SAIL, which
would be of little effect in the pro-
posed repair work at Portage. 1t
will be necessary to approve the ap-
preparation through a special act of
the legislature if the city is to re-
ceive substantial aid.

the bandit who, known as BLACK
Bart" terrorized the people of the

bling stores throughout northern Wis
consin. His first notable exploit was,
the single-handed robbing Of a Wis

of pardons to all prisoners except muir
derers and robbers and the remission

Armed peace prevails throughout

who started the disorder were ordered

REBEL ARMY NEAR
MEXICAN CAPITAL
5000 Men Advance on City for
Crucial Test.
FEDERALS READY FOR ATTACK
U. s. Ambassador Calls for Marines
to Guard Foreieners-Madero Ex-
poets American Intervention
in Seven Days.

Washington. - Ambassador Will
son has wired the state and war
departments for detachment of
United States marines to guard the
American and foreign legations in
Mexico City. The message from the
ambassador Is of the most urgent
character, and contains the informa-
ton that he has advised the other am
bassadors and ministers of foreign
countries now in Mexico City to take
similar action. The diplomat de-
clares the situation is acute and the
presence of American marines is abso-
lutely necessary in order to insure for
eigners protection.
Four rebel divisions, cautiously ad-
vancing for the crucial trial or
strength with the Madero forces, are
closing in on Mexico City, according
to advices to the state department.
Surrounding the city at various
points along the lines Of march of the
advancing columns are bodies OF fed.
eral troops ready to attack the in
vaders, but the effect on the advance
Is unknown, as is also the strength OF
the rebels.
The latest estimate Of the number OF
rebels on the march, however, as re-
ported to Washington, is 5000 troops.
The most formidable rebel division is
that under the command of Mirandi,
which was organized in the state OF
Mexico itself. At present the army is
almost under the very caves Of the
capital city.
Marching from the south is another
detachment of 300 rebels under the
command of Zapata.
Salgado, with 200 rebels, is in the
meantime advancing against Mexico
City from Guerrero.
The vanguard of OroZco's army,
which left two days ago for Mexico
City by way Of Jiminez, is within
few miles of that town. It's progress
has been retarded somewhat by the
necessity for repairing a number of
bridges recently destroyed along The
line of march.
The federals meanwhile, to the num-
Der of 1000, have been rushed to
Torreon, which is to the south of Chi
huahua, and from which town the gov
ernment troops will advance against
Orozco's troops in an effort to stay
the advance upon the capital.

Nearly $4,000 Miners Obey Order to

many-EmpIoyes Accept Pre-
nner's invitation.

New York-The committee OF
ten anthracite coal operators ap-
pointed to draft a reply to the min
ers, refusing their demands for In
creased wages, recognition of the
union, a shorter work day, a One-year
agreement and other changes, was IN
session for three hours, without COM
pleting it's labors. A worldwide strike
is considered threatening.
There were rumors that compro-
mise might be under discussion by the
anthracite operators representatives.
The committee will meet again
Wednesday to finish it's task and sub
NIT it's reply to the miners.
London.-The National Miners Fed
Grafton decided unanimously to accept
the prime minister's invitation to meet
the coal owners and representatives OF
the government at round-table con-
ference at which Premier Asquith will
preside.
Including the miners there are prob
ably 100000 persons idle. If the
strike is prolonged throughout next
week perhaps half of Great Britain's
workers will be unemployed. The dis
tress is widespread. The courts are
ground that the necessaries are be-
yond the reach OF many Of the poor.
Berlin. - At the coal mines in
the Westphalian district about
rs Per cent. of the $4,000 min
ers struck. In some places the cessa-
ton was complete, while in others
only Is to 80 per cent of the men
quit work. Large forces of police are
on duty everywhere throughout the
region.
At Recklinghausen 400 strikers
clashed with the police. Seven strik-
ers were wounded with sabers.
At Schmidtherst a strike-breaker
was killed with knife in fight with
strikers.
The conflict is as much a struggle
between the leaders of the rival So
cial and Nonsocialist unions as be-
tween the mine owners and the en-
ployes. The Socialists are on strike.
Paris. - About two-thirds of the
coal miners of France responded to
the appeal of the General Min
ers' Federation to strike for twenty
four hours. This action is designed
to warn parliament the miners are not
satisfied with the workingmen's old

ROW OVER PENSION BILLS

Senator Hoke Smith Will Fight Pas
sage of 1000 Private Measures.
Washington. - There is evidence
of a huge upheaval in congress
over the practice of pushing through
private measures carrying thousands
of Civil war pensions as political per-
Quisites.
The trouble is expected to start in
the senate this week, when Senator
Hoke Smith OF Georgia intends to OPP
pose the passage of more than 1000
private pension bills already passed
by the house.
On three different days during the
present session the house passed 1,25O
private pension bills, carrying an IN
crease of $174,000 year to the pen
sion disbursement.
The committee on invalid pensions.
from which almost all of these bills
are reported, has 10000 similar pri-
vate bills awaiting action, and before
the end of the session the number
granted so far probably will be more
than trebled
The opponents of private pension
legislation contend that this practice
is to blame for the pension rolls being
crowded with deserters, impostors and
other undeserving recipients OF the
nations aid, while thousands OF dis
abled veterans with honorable records
but no political influence are living IN

SOCIALISTS POLL LARGE VOTE.
Also Aid CotteriIPs Election as Mayor
of Seattle.


Seattle, Wash. That Socialist
votes figured largely in the cleo
ton Of George F. Cotterill as mayor
of Seattle is shown by study of the
returns.
The Socialist candidate for mayor
was eliminated in the primaries and
leaders of the party exhorted their
followers to vote for no candidate for
mayor. However, the Socialist strong
holds rolled up majorities for Cotterill,
who was elected by Cos votes over
Hiram c. Gill, "open town" candidate.
Although the Socialists elected none
of their four candidates on the ticket,
they polled large vote.
The defeat of Gill, who was recalled
from Office as mayor year ago for
alleged misconduct in office, is said
to have been brought about by the
feminine vote.
