NEEDLE GANGS OPERATING FOR
 WHITE 5LAVERS
Police and Federal Author ities Investigating Cases of Girls Jabbed in Arms With Poisoned Instru- mentS
rAssoc1ArEp PRESS p1sPArcH1

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH
 NEWARK, Dec. 7.-Federal, as well as state authorities are likely to take a hand in an investigation of the poison needle mystery growing out of the eX- periences of Mrs Majorie Graf in moving picture theater two days ago. So far the only arrest that has been made is that of young South Ameri- can. Armand Megaro, who is held in twenty thousand dollars bail on an as sauIt charge made by Mrs. Graft.
 After the man seated near her in a box jabbed a needle into her arm, she was seized with droWsiness. The cases of five young women reported to have been victims of an experience similar to that of Mrs Graff are being investi gated by the police of this city. How ever, the attention of the federal au- thorities have been brought to the Graff case in connection with their inquiry into several white slave cases
 United States Assistant District At torney Charles F. Lynch, said today the government authorities would act if shown that a needle gang is Operat- ing between this city and New York. Sociological workers here and in New York have laid emphasis on the Graft case and their public warnings regard ing the methods of white slaVers in se- curing girls. The police here are at present withholding the names of all the reported victims except that of Miss Jeanette Clark, aged nineteen, who said today she had been attacked in the

Cato Sells Is Determined
 That Redmen Shall No Longer Be Prey of Vast Group in Which Spirit of Graft Is Rampant.
Especial to The Republican,


 WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-The reign of graft in Indian affairs must end. That is the edict of Cato Sells, United states commissioner of Indian affairs, business man. lawyer. banker. public office holder, and above all a red bIooded. two-fisted fighting man.
 Ruling over the affairs of a fast-dy- ing people, who own $900,000,00O worth of the richest grazing. oil mineral land Of the west. Sells has determined that the Indians shall no longer be the prey of a vast group in whom the spirit of graft was rampant-"carrion,' he calls them.
 The heartless grasplng of "attor- neys" and guardians administering the estates of Indian children called most strikingly to Sells attention the need of reform, and a quick one. while white chiIdren's estates are ordinarily settled at a cost of only three per cent the average price on Indians children's estates has been grafted by the un- scrupulous.

Withdrawal Of zAUzOn0 Mineral
 Land Is UnuSual
Especial to The Republican.)


 WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-Within the last year a public-land withdrawal Of an unusual type. designated mineral land withdrawal No. l. Arizona No. l." was made at the instance of the United States geological survey. The with drawaI covers an area in the Warren mining district (Bisbee, Ariz.). in which investigations by the survey revealed geologic conditions favorable to the oc- currence of deep seated deposits of copper on which no surface discovery, as required by the lode law, can be made. As discovery and hence valid location of such deposits will depend on expensive deep drilling or deep shaft ing and will require time. there was danger that before prospecting of this kind could be completed attempts would be made to obtain title to the lands by means of state selections or other nonmineral entries. Accordingly the president directed that an area in eluding approximately 9.787 acres be withdrawn. The lands in the with drawn area are open to exploration and purchase under the mining laws, so far as they apply to metalliferOus miner als but are not subject to other forms of entry. Later 1,2SO acres of this re- serve were restored to entry.

No Sign of Federals Has Been Noted Except Train Crews Report But Villa Will Take No Chances of Being MaroOned.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1

JUAREZ, Dec. 7.-StllI fOrutylng ms telegraph and railroad communication with Juarez against possible attack by the federals, Villa with his rebel army remained near Suaz, thirty miles north of Chihuahua. Villa said he will de- lay his entry into the capital city until confident he is not going to be cut off from the north. The idea prevailed that some of Mercado's federals after evacuating Chihuahua, possibly might have left the main body and swung around to the north and west in an effort to throw a force between Villa and his base at JuareZ.
 Should Villa lose communication with Juarez, he would be isolated in Chihua- hua and in the same position as the federals before their evacuation. Tel egraph communication showed that no federals have been seen anywhere. Villa is convinced there will be no inn portant fighting until he invades the territory south of Chihuahua. Reports from Ojinaga are that Mercado's troops are still making frantic efforts to reach the United States with their bullion. A train crew reported the federal cara van had been seen in the desert.

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 7.-Foreigners must not be interfered with if fight ing occurs in the federal district. This indication is contained in the general army orders issued today. Specific ally they state that in the event of fighting, officers in command of gov .rnment troops must understand that the lives and property of all foreign CTS must be respected, and no moneys or supplies are to be exacted from them, and they are to be permitted to leave the scene of fighting al any time.
 The government disregarded the warming of the Seapata forces that they would shoot railway employees Tn case operation Of trains on the Cuernavaca line was attempted. after Dec. 1. and as a result a pitched battle has taken place between Cuer- navaca and Iguala.

Especial to The Republican,


 WASHINGTON, D. C.. Dec. 7.- During the next few weeks Uncle Sam's infant prodigy-the parcel post service-wiH be called upon to perform a herculean task In connec- tion with the transportation and de- livery of millions of Christmas gifts. Postmaster General Burleson, who is responsible for the conduct of this service, has made extraordinary prep arations to prevent congestion in post offices and to insure prompt deliv- cry of these parcels. Several thou sand additional employees will be add ed to the force during the holiday season and the collection and de- livery equipment will be augmented wherever necessary. Every possible effort has been made to strengthen those parts of the postal organiza- ton which will be under the greatest strain and MT. Burleson stated to- day that with these special arrange ments he is confident of the ability of the service to handle successfully the avalanche of parcels that will be thrown upon it during the rush period.
 The postmaster general is anxious, however, lest the public fail to CO.,  tain important conditions necessary to enable the postal authorities to effect the timely delivery of Christ smas gifts. In order to secure this CO., operation he has caused to be printed for distribution throughout the country hundreds of thousands of circulars and placards containing di- rections for the proper preparation of Christmas gifts for transmission by mail
 Christmas parcels should be mailed early For local delivery they should be mailed not later than December 23d and for out-of-town delivery as early as possible, but in any event in time to reach the offices of des- tination at least two days prior to Christmas.
 Christmas gifts sent by mail should be wrapped securely. The contain CTS or wrappers should be sufficiently strong to withstand the necessary handling incidental to transportation and delivery.
 Glassware, crockery, Christmas toys easily breakable, glass framed pie t1Ires. etc. should be carefully packed in boxes of metal, wood, leather. or corrugated pasteboard with sufficient excelsior. raw cotton or similar mat ter to prevent the contents from com ing into contact with any portion of the box. These parcels should be marked Fra gile." Postmasters will refuse to accept for mailing packages that are fnsecurely prepared
