Mexican Rebel Leader Admits
Himself Beaten
I'm ORGANIZED WARFARE
However, Gen. 0rozco Declared To-day
That Guerrilla Methods Now Being
Planned Will Harm the Mexican
f. Government Severely.

Juarez, Mexico. July ll.-Gen. Pas
cual Orozco, jr., the rebel leader, who
arrived here last night, admitted defeat
in organized warfare but made it plain
that the guerilla warfare being planned
was calculated to harm the Mexican
government severely. He said that .ho
entertained no i'll will toward the United
States and did not want foreign compli-
cations.
Gen. Orozco believes that the Mexican
government ultimately can be over.
thrown. The rebels are gradually de-
stroying the Mexican Central railroad in
front of General Huerta's federal forts.
This probably will prevent the federals
reaching the vicinity of Juarez for at
least two months.

WILL BREAK "SOLID SOUTH
Roosevelt Will Get Three Districts in
Louisiana If No More.

Baton Rouge, La, Oct. S.-The
solid South" may be broken this
year and Woodrow Wilson may lose
three of Louisiana's electoral votes
as a result of a misunderstanding due
to the recent re-districting of the
State, according to political leaders
at the capital.
The Federal statutes require resi-
dence in the district sought to be rep
resented by each candidate for cleo
tor, except in the case of the two
electors at large. 1t is pointed out
that the list filed by the Democrats
shows that three Congressional Dis
tricts are not represented by candi-
dates resident therein.

pired Monday and leaders of the Pro-
gressive party asserted to-day they

Gratis to correct their error.

No TAFT MEN On TICKET
California Supreme Court Decides
That Taft Electors Cannot BE
Placed on Ticket in That State
They Were Beaten by Decisive Vote
i'm Convention.

San Francisco, Cal, Oct. 5-Seith-
er by nomination as Republicans nor
by petition az Independents can elec-
tors pledge to President Taft 20 on
the November ballot in California.
The first possibility was closed by
the decision OF the California Su-
preme Court; the second had delib-
erately been neglected.
In consequence. II will be impos-
sible TO vote for Taft in California
except by writing upon the ballot the
names OF electors pledged TO him and
selected by the minority convention
which bolted at Sacramento.
The issue was presented In the
form of an application by attorneys
for the Taft Republican organiza-
ton, seeking to have made perma-
nent an alternative writ obtained
some days ago, directing Frank c.
Jordan, Secretary of State, to desig-
nate on the ballots as Republicans
the Presidential electors named by
the Taft adherents.
Attorney-General Webb, for the
Secretary of State, filed a general de-
NAL OF the allegations and a demur-
rer to the petitionA He argued that
the Republican party of California
was not affiliated with the National
party, and was in no wise bound by
the decision of the Chicago conven-
ton; that the petition of the Taft
men was supported by insufficient evil
dence, and that the court lacked ju-
risdiction.
Chief Justice Beatty declared that
it seems to him that the only ques-
tion the court could pass upon was
the constitutionality of the law,
which was not involved, counsel
agreed.

EMPRESS COMPANIES ALARMED.

Fear the Investigation by the Com
Wells Fargo Company Has De-
clared Dividends as High as 800
Per Cent.
Washington, D. c., Oct. 9.-When
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion begins it's adjourned hearing on
express rates to-day the express COM
panies will enter on a fight for life.
The companies foresee their possible
extinction in the attitude of the Com
mission toward them
The Commissions order, issued
early in the summer, directs the ex-
press companies to show cause why
their rates should not be reduced to
the figures carried in the order,
which are, on the smaller packages,
between thirty and forty per cent
lower than those now in existence.
The hearings will be had on October
8, 10, IL, and II.
Franklin K. Lane, the Commission
er who has been handling the ex-
press cases, is even less impressed
with the arguments made by the COM
panies than any of his colleagues.
A few years ago the Wells Fargo
Company declared a 800 per cent
stock dividend. The Commission's
Investigations and testimony of rep
utable witnesses show that there is
little money invested in the business,
all these great profits having been ex-
torted from the public without any
risk or outlay, to speak off by the
stockholders.
The express companies have an
other obstacle to overcome. That is
the parcels post law. which becomes
effective January l. That statute
puts into effect on packages weighing
less than eleven pounds rates that are
low in comparison with those charg-
ed for merchants in cities to send one
pound parcels within the free ieliv-
cry limits for five cents. Such a
package will be carried for fifty miles
for that sum.
Big shippers have had express
rates practically as low as that for
many years. They are known as
"under-the-counter" rates and the
big shippers are the only ones that
have known about them. The aver
age agent has not known Of their ex-
iStence.
