With six teams from Ludlow &
Squier, of this city; five teams from
the Y. NJ C. L.. of st. Patrick's
parish, Elizabeth, and the Pioneer
team, of Jersey City, the Star head
pin tournament was continued last
| night on the Iroquois alleys. 1t was
the thirtieth night of the season in
the big tournament, and the ninth
club night of the year.
Joseph conroy, with a tally of 1o4,
was high last night Richard Caro-
Ian had 1903 and Frank Barnes an
even 100. To each Of these bowlers
was handed one Of the watchfobs
which the Star offers to those who
have scores between 100 and 10.
Barnes had tally of 100 in the
eleventh frame and missed the head
pin on the twelfth ball. A strike
would have given him one of the
gold trophies which the Star awards
to those who have marks of 110 or
better.
Tom O'Donnell, formerly an alley
owner in Elizabeth and at one time
a member of the famous Elizabeth
Stars, rolled SO. with twelve straight
hits. John Barry was equally unfor-
tunate. He. too, hit the headpin each
time he tried, but his total, likewise,
was a pin shy of the coveted century
mark. Frank Barnes, who got the
tally of 100 and came close to a
higher mark has won five watch-fobs
In a row. having competed success
fully in each of the five headpin
tournaments conducted by the Star.
Barry had "a last night in the
eleventh frame. His next ball hit the
headpln all right, but only five pins
fell and he was robbed" of the fob
that he surely thought was his.
O'Donnell, with 81 in the eleventh
frame. knocked down eight pins with
his last ball.

OROZCO'S WAR PLANS
Announces That He Is Done With
 Organized Fighting

GENERAL OROZCO'S HEAD QUARTERS, SAUZ, July 7-Stin sullen and morose, but none the less determined to continue his defiance of constituted government. General Orozco lolled in bed today giving final orders for the inauguration of guer- rilla warfare which he proposes to wage until Madero is forced to re- sign"
 Though uged to come to Juarez for council of war, the defeated com mander-in chief late today made no definite announcement regarding his itinerary. Those members of his sta if close to him professed to believe he would send to Juarez the comman- deered private car in which he had ridden from three battlefields. and travel with his men on horseback to Casas Grandes, 175 miles northwest
 One reason for this belief was the sensitiveness of the general who made no effort to conceal his chagrin at the rebel defeat at Bachimba three days ago. Contrary to the advice of his officers. ammunition being short he ordered an attack believing there was chance to win.
 OrOZcO admitted today that he was done with organized warfare. Sonora will be the first state to feel the ef- fleets of the new campaign, but it is OrozcO's ambition to extend his opera tions to states nearer Mexico City
 OrOzco said: Foreign interests will be protected. We are not making war on Americans or American invest ments Madero and his government arc the objects of our attack"
 Orozco and his generals point to Huerta's tactics as an indication that the government forces are unwieldly and incapable of surrounding mobile bands whose methods will not differ from those of outlaws

 General Tellez and General Rabago. in command of two brigades of cav airy. had entered the city a short time before but were immediately dis patched to the northwest toward Casas Grandes to head off the fleeing rebel army.
 To the number of foreign flags raised many days ago by foreign resi- dents who feared that footing would follow a rebel retreat. were added hundreds of Mexican banners giving the city holiday aspect
 The entry of Huerta's army reduced the high tension under which the for eign residents had lived ever since the rebel reverses in this section began Reaction was found in an expression of general welcome. The same per- sons who until d week ago were loud in potesting friendship for Orozco and his ragged and undisciplined army stood in the streets app!auding the victorious general and his regulars with shouts of Viva MaderO."
 The coming of Huerta means the restoration of railroad communication with Torreon, though it Simultaneous ly cuts off this city on the north from Juarez. on the American border
 This city has been mulcted of sup plies. and business has long been at a standStill. Many mines will now be reOpened.
