The first day of the management
OF the Richmond and Henrico Rail

statement was forthcoming from the
officers OF either of the rival traction
companies in the Richmond field.
At the offices of the Virginia Trust
Company, the receiver appointed by
the Law and Equity Court, 1t was
stated that the force employed by the
Richmond and Henrico Company will,
for the present at least, be maintained
unchanged. The trust company be-
gan yesterday the work of preparing
an inventory of the railway company's
holdings. and will probably submit to
the court statement OF It's condition

HOROSCOPE
DECEMBER %

If this is your birthdate You belong
to the last sign of the Earth Triplicity
Of the Zodiac, which is the dark and
mysterious sign of the earth and gives
occult powers and love of deep study.
Philosophers, teachers and leaders are
born under this sign.
A person of this birthdate gives much
time to study. The fault of this birth
date is the desire to try to do too many
things at once. These people work like
Troians for themselves but are miser-
able and restless when working for
others.
II is much better always for Capri
corn people to be at the head of busi-
ness for themselves than to try to work
under the dictation of others.
At times these people are brilliant
and bubbling over with good nature
and fun and again they are very much
depressed and do not seem to know
which way to turn.
For the coming week Want Ads ask
ing for Office help, for salespeople, for
agents and for stenographers will re-
ceive wide attention and many answers.

Proceedings Against Chief Executive
Some Members Hope for Harmony
BILBo's PLANS NOT KNOWN

Jackson, Miss, Dec. 31.-More than
at the Governors office during the
past few days from members of the
legislature pledging him support in
support in event an attempt is made |
by Lieutenant Governor Bilbo and his
followers to file impeachment proceed !
ings at the approaching session.
Although the Governor has been
constantly at Vicksburg during the
past two weeks attending the Hobbs
bribery trial, his friends have not been
inactive. In anticipation of bitter
tight being waged against him at the
approaching session, they have been
quietly organizing their forces, and
now declare that, no matter how spirit
ed fight may be waged by the lieu
tenant governor, he will find it impos-
sible to muster a majority in either
branch of the lawmaking body.
Lieut. Gov Bilbo has thus far made
no public announcement of his plans,
and it is not expected that he will do
so until the legislature assemblies.
Several members Of both houses who
have been in the city during the past
few days, while frankly conceding that
the outlook is anything but bright fol
harmonious session, and expressing
the hope that the warning element!
will at least declare truce until tie
, important legislative business can b,
, disposed of. They admit that the out
look for peace is just about the same
as that now existing in Mexico, and
while hoping for the best, they ar,
preparing of the worst. Members o
the legislative investigating commit
tee, now in session here. share thi
feeling to a more or less extent.
Governor Brewer is now engaged il
preparing his biennial message, takin
advantage of every leisure moment h
:" can find for this task. He has pull
licly stated that he intends to discus
his anti-graft crusade fully and frankl
u in his message to the legislature, an
will call spade a spade from start

(By Associated Prcss.)

Preside, Tex, Dec. 31.-Army men
believe that the battle at Ojinaga will
be settled within twenty-four hours.
Federals are short of ammunition and
in the last ditch. Judging from the
amount of firing the rebels have plen-
ty of ammunition.
Rebels are rapidly closing in on the
fortified position and it seems now that
the Federaps only recourse is a hand
to hand fight or fight across the bor-
der. Firing continues.
Estimates of the probable number
of dead are based only on stories OF
deserters. 1t is said that two or three
hundred federals were killed at the
first assault and that wounded that
could not shift for themselves, were
left on the field. Other refugees said
federals are waiting for a chance tc
cross to the United States. Fear Of
being shot in the back is holding many
in Ojinaga.
