MORE SHOES, FEWER CATTLE.

Regarding shoe and leather prices,
note these facts: The Census Report
of 1910 shows 247,0OO,OO0 pairs of
shoes manufactured in this country
Ten years before the output was
about 196,000,00O. There was an in
crease, therefore, in shoe demand
amounting to 100000 pairs.
Against this fact, note the report on
cattle. There were 67000,O0O head of
cattle in 1900, and 61,000,0O0 in 1910,
a decrease of nearly 10 per cent.
1t is true that hides are not the
only material from which shoes are
made, and it is also true that we i'm
port large quantities of hides; but
does anyone imagine that the pro-
ducers of foreign hides are asleep?
When beef prices go up in this coun-
try, Buenos Ayres knows it the next
morning. Furthermore, the very ele-
ments of the situation which cause an
increase here affect Buenos Ayres
anyway. That is to say, the price of
cattle is regulated by world market.

Rebels Short Of Ammunition.

Chihuahua, Mex, May 27-The
Mexican rebels are rapidly running
out Of ammunition and feeling against
the United States for preventing inn
portation of arms into Mexico runs
high in the rebel zone. Lack of am
munition is given as one Of the prin-
cipal reasons why the insurrectos
have retreated before the advancing
federals.
To date the rebels have evacuated
nearly $50 miles of territory along
the Mexican central lines, ana Cen
eral Orozco, who arrived here today,
is mastering his men in an effort to
check the federals at Bachimba. This
is naturally fortified place with plen-
ty Of water lack Of which made
fighting before difficult.
The exact position OF the federaIs
is not known here, but they are be
lieved to be near Jimenez, $50 miles
south, which has been evacuated by
the rear guard of the rebels, charged
with the task Of wrecking the railroad
and burning bridges. Should the
rebels be defeated at Bachimba and
driven out to Chihuahua it is practic-
ally certain that they win split into
small bands and harass the govern
ment in guerrilla warfare until such
time as they gather enough ammuni-
tion for concentrated stand.
The rebels have about 5000 men in
this vicinity. Only 66 men have been
reported missing by the commanders
since the battle at Rellano. There
are hardly any sick, but about 15O
wounded are in the hospitals.

not qualified to enter land The court

believe that General Huerta. in com

lous position in the eagnerness OF his
pursuit of the defeated army Of Or
ozco after the battle of Rellanc. His
long line of communication running

of complete disruption at the hands
of force of about 1000 rebels, which
has suddenly developed it's presence
just west of Torreon and many miles
to the south of General lIuertas ad-
vance guard.

rebel army, which is under the lead

WILL TRY TO DlsPRovE HIS
TESTIMONY

Los Angeles, Calf, May 27.-Minor
law suits and the usual Monday morn
ing session of the lunacy commission
had precedence today over the trial
of Clarence S. Darrow, the Chicago
lawyer, for alleged jury bribery. The
case, in consequence was not schedul-
ed to be resumed until 1870 o'clock
this afternoon.
George N. Lockwood, the Grand
Army man who began Saturday his
story Of the alleged attempt to bribe
him as a prospective juror in the Nc
Mama trial. was expected to resume
the stand for the completion of his
direct examination
Judge Hutton indicated Saturday
that he would decide today, but it
was expected that some time would
be consumed by the arguments of
counsel for both sides. It is not be-
lieved that the prosecution hopes to
connect Mr.. Darrow with the Lock
wood bribery through Lockwood him
self, as it is said to be the intention
of the district attorney to present that
phase of the case through Bert H.
Franklin, who is expected to follow
Lockwood on the stand. The defense
has promised a gruelling cross-exami-
nation for both Lockwood and Frank
lin, particularly the latter, who plead
ed guilty to the indictment of bribing
Lockwood and was fined $4,000.

Force Detailed to Harass Federals
Chihuahua, Mex, May 27.-To Cen

entrusted the work of isolating the
federal army. A large force is oper-
ating in the territory around Torreon
and an unconfirmed report reached
here today that they now are in pos
session of Gomez Palacio and Lerdo.
1t is expected that the rebels will
harass Huerta almost constantly, by
cutting the railroad behind them. The
condition of Gonzalo G. Enrile, right
hand man of General Orozco, who was
stabbed recently by unknown assas-
sins, was today said to be rapidly
growing serious. His wounds have
not healed as expected and blood
poisoning has set in.
Enrile is anxious to get to the Uni
ted States for medical treatment, but
is reported to be in fear that he will
be arrested if he comes into Ameri-
can territory. Enrile is accused of
circulating a violent anti-American
proclamation in El Paso in the early
days Of the revolution denouncing
President Taft and the American CO
pies of the procIamations were con-
fiscated by army officers in El Paso.
