FRONTIER TROOPS
ARE ON THE MARCH
u. S. Soldiers Parallel Move
mentS of Rebels.
TO STOP BORDER CROSSING
Line 1900 Miles Long to Be Guarded
by Army PatroI-The End
of War in Mexico Is
Not Near.
TO STOP BORDER CROSSING

Washington. Sept. 19.-The war de-
partment on Tuesday issued orders to
General Steever to parallel the move
nHents Of the rebel forces along the
frontier in Mexico.
The arrival on the border line of the
two additional regiments recently or
dered there will make this task not
quite impossible, although it will be
still one of great difficulty, demand
ing the daily and nightly movement
of the whole army in patrol.
General Wood estimates the length
Of line to be guarded at about fifteen
hundred miles, but the rebels appear
sc suddenly and so often at different
places that the task of keeping up
less. This patrol duty has become
particularly important by reason of
the rebel practice of simply passing
over into the United States if hard
pressed, and if they are not captured
they return to their friends on the
other side
Beginning today and continuing un-
til orders to the contrary are given,
the frontier troops will be on the
march. If armed bands are taken
they will be disarmed and held sub
iect to the terms of peace.
1t is not known to the war depart
ment where General Orozco is. There
have been reports that he is on this
side of the border, where several OF
his lieutenants have been captured.
The optimism of Madero that the
war will end when Orozco is captured
or surrenders on this side of the line
Is not shared by the military officials
here. The Madero government, 1t ap-
pears, has not been able to suppress
the disorders, even near the capital
and it is feared that later in the sea-
son there will be withdrawal OF the
rebels from the frontier for junction
with the rebels of the south under
General Zapata.
The manager of the Tigre mines es-
Inmates that the loss so far known has
amounted to about $4,000, but the
mines themselves suffered no NAL
treatment One Japanese was killed
in Ell Tigre by bursting she'll The
Mormon colonies in Sonora have been
looted by both Rojas and Salazar.
Douglas, Ariz., Sept 19.-The Mex
lean federal officer responsible for
holding back reinforcements for Ell
Tigre, while the rebels under Salazar
we're attacking the town, will be shot
for cowardice, according to General
Sanjines, commander of the federal
forces in Sonora.
The intended reinforcements, ac-
cording to reports, arrived while fight
ing was in progress, swung off In
different direction and went into camp
within sound of the firing.

BELOIT OFFICIALS CLASH
Movement to Pave Alley on School
Land Results in Injunction to
Restrain Work.

Beloit-A legal battle was begun
with the council and the school board
opposing parties. West of the high
school grounds is a lane and facing it
is the residence of E. Lipman. The
council at meeting voted to have
the lane paved, and Mayor Cunning
ham, who is also a member of the
school board, vetoed the resolution.
His grounds are that the alley is not
intended as thoroughfare, and that
the school board does not approve of
the improvement and wants to close
the lane entirely.
The school board began to grade
and fill the alley Mr. Lipman Sc
cured an injunction restraining the
board from continuing the work.
This will bring the case into court
and decide whether the lane is un-
der the control of the school board,
for it is on school land, or whether
the council can declare it thorough
fare and improve it. Under the city
charter the school board is elected
as an entirely distinct body from the
council, and conflicts of authority
have not been a few.

II LOSE LIVES AS NAVY
BOAT SINKS IN GALE
Apprentices at Training School on
Lake Michigan Drown 100 Feet
From Land.

Chicago, Sept. 17.-Eleven boys, re-
cruits at the United States naval
training station at North Chicago, lost
their lives in q Lake Michigan
tragedy.
Twenty-three boys, one able sea-
man, who was petty officer, and an
other petty officer, set forth early for
pleasure sail. They became help
less in a gale, fought their way al
most to the shore, and the tragedy oc-
CURED within one hundred feet OF
frantic people on the beach.
All but one was able to swim un-
der ordinary conditions, but could do
nothing against the high wind and
heavy surf.
In full view of hundreds of people
along the shore the boat capsized.
The lake was alive with struggling
boys. Many of them had never been
in rough water before. They were
of the newest recruits.
They struck out strongly for the
shore, but there was an undertow In
addition to the heavy waves. Three
boys got almost within arms reach
of rescuers when they were snatched
back by the sea and went down.

DEMOCRATIC VOTE
SHOWS BIG GAIN
SChmitz and KareI Combined
Poll About 10000.
M'GOvERN's TOTAL is $4,000
Two Years Ago the Total Democratic
Vote Was 48, 900; Total Republican
Vote 100. 1000 cGovern Fell g.
600 Below His Run.

Madison.-Complete returns from
sixty-nine counties of the state give
John G. Karel 44,760 and Adolph
Schmitz $4,000 votes in the demo-
cratic race for the gubernatorlal
nomination McGovern, republican,
received 72,87O. The total demo-
cratic vote in the sixty-nine counties
Is 1909. The total state vote for
Schmitz two years ago was 48,O66
The republican to tai vote two
years ago was 190,913; Fairchild,
55,943; Lewis, 4O,849; McGovern,
S2,315; Strange, 1888; Barker, o.
973; McGovern fell 9,445 below his
run two years ago and 118,O4S be-
low the total vote at that time, in
the sixty-seven counties.
Douglas and La Crosse counties
have not yet submitted official re-
turns. The returns have not yet been
canvassed by the state board.
The returns explain how the TO-
600 majority of Karel was received.
In the Schmitz counties the demo
cratic vote was light. There are
counties which Schmitz carried two
or three to one but in most of them
only scattering vote was received,
ranging from 200 to 800 votes and
in many cases, less. These were the
rural counties, where the income tax
was favored.
Karel's strength came chiefly from
the lake shore counties and the
counties where systematic campaign
ing was carried on against the in
come tax

SECRETS ARE Barred BY
HARVESTER BOOKS
George w. Perkins Figures Prominent
~ In EVldence-Led in Form
ing Combine.

Chicago, Sept. 20-The autobiog.
raphy of the harvester combine, in the
form of minutes of directors anC
stockholders meetings, came into the
possession of the government in re
spouse to subpoenas issued in the suit
for the dissolution of the International
Harvester company.
The inside history of the corpora.
ton, which the government is attack,
ing as trust, was laid bare in four big
volumes of typewriter records. Ed
win P. Grosvenor, assistant to the at.
torney general, spent much time look.
ing through the minutes for evidence
that the company has sought to sup
press competition and obtain a virtual
monopoly in the production and sale OF
harvesting machinery.
George w. Perkins was figuring
prominently in the documentary evi.
dence submitted.
Not only was he shown to have
been the leading spirit in bringing the
leading manufacturers into the com
bine in 1902, but documents introduced
by Attorney Grosvenor showed that
he had been the active agent in buying
up additional plants after the trust
was formed. One of these acquired
companies, D. M. Osborne e Co., con
tinued for two years after it's acquisi-
ton to advertise itself as "the largest
Independent company in the country
and as independent of any trust"
The contract for the purchase of the
Osborne company was signed by Mr..
Perkins as chairman of the finance
committee of the international Har,
vester company. The evidence SO far
has not disclosed the names of officials
of the company who were responsible
for this method of>advertising.

In the mill at the time the blaze
started were fifteen men, employees

shifts of men, running night and day.
