REJECTION OF MEAT
TO BE INVESTIGATED
Navy Department Wants Full Particu-
lars Regarding Throwing Out Of
Supplies For Boat.

Washington, D. c., May "a The
navy department telegraphed the
Philadelphia navy yard for a full re-
port regarding the rejection of $4,000
pounds of beef delivered yesterday by
the contractor for use on the navy
transport Prairie. Only 1000 out of
two consignments OF $4,000 pounds
were accepted. The Prairie already
had 5000 pounds aboard and so sailed
with 10000 pounds. This undoubtedly
will serve the force ten days, it is said,
if necessary the supply ship Culgoa.
now at Norfolk, can be rushed with
beef to Guantanamo.
This is not the first time the navy
department has had trouble with
meat contractors attempting to supply
a ship under hurried sailing orders
with bad beef with the idea it would
be compelled to accept it or go with
out. 1t is probable that the meat at
Philadelphia may not have been real
ly bad, but was rejected because it
would not keep long enough for use
in the tropics. If the meat was below
contract standard it will have the eff
feet of barring the contractor from
further bidding for navy trade, it was
said at the navy department.

STRIKE AFFECTS
MIDDLE WEST
IOWA MANUFACTURERS AND

49,. SHIPMENTS HELD UP.

Des Moines, May 24.-The freight
handlers strike which swept over the
middle west yesterday was expected
to affect freight here today. That only
a few of the men in Des Moines are
members of the freight handlers or
ganization was the declaration OF an
Off cial here today. The general order
which was sent out from headquar-
tiers In Chicago yesterday has been re-
ceived by. those who are members,
however. ..: ...
Local railroad officers are receiving
hundreds of complaints from manu-
facturers and wholesale houses be-
cause of their failure to deliver goods
which have been held up In Chicago
for several days and the strike al
ready is badly interfering with bust
ness in many cities in the middle
west, it is said That the local freight
handlers are not we'll enough organ
lied to go on strike, was the state
ment of one official here. Several OF
the freight handlers say that they are
not in sympathy with the strikers and
will remain at their work.

TO HAVE THIRTEENTH
BARROW CASE JUROR
Court at los Angeles Prepared for
Emergencies by Having Extra
Man Hearing Case.

Los Angeles, Cal, May 24.-When
the trial of Clarence S. Darrow accused
Of jury bribery was called today an
hour earlier than the usual time, the
task of selecting thirteen jurors was
resumed.
Although it was believed that J. l..
Wheat, whose examination was begun
yesterday would qualify as alternate
juror, Judge Hutton had prepared for
eventualities by securing more venire-
men from another department Of the
superior court. Wheat was the last
man on the panel yesterday. 1t was
felt by those who followed the pre-
liminary questioning of Wheat that If
he was not selected as the required
juror, it would be owing to informa-
ton obtained during the night by the
defense.
Chief Counsel Rogers for the defeEse
asked for an early adjournment yes
terday for the purpose Of making in
quiries concerning questions to be
asked the prospective jurors. No in
timation was given at the time as to
the nature of the proposed inquiry.
AS the time for introduction of evil
dence has drawn near, the attendance
has increased daily. Yesterday there
were many more denied admittance to
the courtroom than were allowed TO
enter.

Several speeches were made on the
resolution, and finally it was left on
the table without vote being taken.

MEXICAN REBELS
D0WNEO IN FIGHT
FEDERAL GENERAL PUTS OROZCO
FORCES TO FLIGHT AT
RELLANO; 800 DEAD

Ell Paso, Tex, May "a Rellano, ovel
which the main columns of federals
and rebels in northern Mexico Tough
for more than twenty-four hours, has
fallen into the hands of the govern
ment The federal cavalry is pursu
ing the rebels north of Rellano.
The advices were telegraphed al
6:15 last night to the Mexican consul
here by General Huerta, the federal
commander.
| Alberta Madero, uncle of the presi,
dent of Mexico, received last night a
message from his brother, Erneste Ma
dero, the minister of finance, confirm
ing the federal victory. The message
reads:
Gen. Huerta has completely re-
pulsed Orozco at Rellano, having
taken all the positions. The cavalry
is pursuing the fleeing rebels"
Takes All But One Hill.
Mexican Consul Lorente received
from General Huerta's camp the fol-
lowing:
AT 8 p. m. General Victorian Huer-
ia has returned to camp and Informed
us that he has taken all positions OF
the enemy in the hills near Rellano ex-
cept one hill which is sr1n holding out
The enemy in this position is COM
mencing to disband.'
Another message read: "Rellano
now in the hands of the federals. The
federal cavalry now is pursuing the
fleeing enemy.
Artillery Fire Destructive.
At the Rebel Front, Corralitas, May
"a. - The rebels retreated last
night north of Rellano to Corralitas,
fourteen miles away. The federals be-
gan a hurried flank movement at noon,
which caused the insurrectos to with
draw a few miles. The artillery fire
of the federals was destructive.
General Orozco last night acknoWl-
edged his defeat at Rellano. He de-
clared, however, that his forces were
by no means demoralized, and that he
would continue to push the revolution.
Many of the rebels retreated as far
north as Jiminez.
Estimate of the Dead.
Mexico City, May 24.-According to
advices between 800 and 1000 rebels
were killed or wounded in the battle
at Rellano. This estimate is made IN
dispatch to the president from General
Huerta. Casualties on the government
side were not announced. General
Huerta in describing the battle, re-
cites that after the artillery had been
in combat fourteen hours the enemy
began a flank movement against the
federals' right which was opposed by
brigade of infantry, aided by the
batteries of mountain artillery and
rapid-firing guns. This engagement
was entirely outside the Rellano zone
and resulted in the complete dispersion
of the rebel thanking column. A
cavalry detachment, 1900 strong,
finished the battle, carrying out a
thanking movement which drove the
enemy from their positions. Part of
the artillery which was lost at Rel
latio in previous battles was recovered

ROOSEVELT GAINS
TWO MORE IN OHIO

Columbus, O., May 24.-Col. Roose-
welt gained two more delegates in the
Ohio primaries Tuesday than has been
accorded him, making his delegates
thirty-four to President Taft's eight.
The official count in the thirteenth
district shows that Thomas Dewey
and E. j. Engler, Roosevelt delegates,
were elected by slight majorities. The
error which gave Col. Roosevelt both
delegates from the fifteenth was off,
set by the loss Of one in the sixth, F..
E. Eulass, for Taft, defeating w. H.
Baum. There has been no change in
the democratic standing, Harmon hold
ing thirty-one to Wilson's eleven.
