registered mail containing 100000
worth of postage stamps and new cur
rency of the face value of approx
mately 100000, all water soaked by
being marooned in the flood district,
has reached the postoffice here. The
stamps are total loss but the money
may be saved by being shipped back
to Washington to be "laundried and

The stamps were destined to post

from 800 to $4,000, according to the
size of the office. A temporary stamp

AN ARMY SENT AGAINST zAPATA
President Huerta VIII Try to Crush
Mexican Rebel With 10000
Troops.

The City Of Mexico.--The breaking
off of all negotiations for peace with
Zapata has forced the government to
mobilize strong force for a campaign
against the southern rebels. That has
been done in spite of teh fact that
rebel successes in the north have
made imperative the dispatch of a
large part of the regular army to that
region.
The war department says that gov
ernE>ent troops will begin moving into
those districts occupied by Zapata's
followers. That concentration will
continue until an army of ten thou
sand men has been gathered.
The followers of Zapata have circu.
lated numerous manifestos repudiat-
ing Huerta and Felix Diaz, and calling
on the people to support the Zapata
movement

MAY Be few FIGHTS on TARIFF
HOUSE AND SENATE LEADERS
PRACTICALLY AGREED.
A General Revision Bill Approved by
President Wilson Nearly Ready
for Congress.

Washington, d. C.-The Democratic
the exception of final decision upon
the sugar tariff From beginning to
end it is a measure modelled in &C
cord with the ideas of President Will
son, with wool, meats and many other
foodstuffs and clothing materials on
the free list; with low duties upon
all agricultural products and food
stuffs that are not free; and with the
tariff on chemical steel and other
commercial products cut far below
the present protective rates.
The senate tariff leaders asked for
an opportunity to study the bill. They
will then confer with Oscar w. I'm
derwo0d, chairman of the house COM
mittee on ways and means, and later
will have a final conference with
President Wilson. A careful analysis
Of the senate will be made in the
meantime, to determine whether free
wool, zone cent sugar" and low rates
on market basket products will
prove acceptable to a majority of the
Democrats.
Briefly summarized, the tariff devel-
opments were:
President Wilson's ultimatum to
sugar interests, that they must agree
to a tariff of one cent per pound for
three years, with free sugar after that
time, or he would attempt to secure
free sugar at once.
The completion of the bill by the
ways and means committee with the
exception of the sugar schedule.
On this, the committee is prepared
to agree on free sugar if the Presi-
dent insists. Income tax rates fixed
at 1 per cent for all corporation in
comes above $4,000; / per cent on
personal incomes from $4,000 to $780,
900; 2 per cent from $4,000 to $780,
900; 3 per cent from $4,000 to $780,
900; per cent above 100000.
The President submitted his propo-
sal on the sugar tariff to Representa-
tive Broussard of Louisiana early in
the day. Louisiana senators and rep
resentatives conferred throughout the
day, and sounded out other members
Of the senate, to determine whether
enough strength could be secured to
fight the free sugar features of the
plan. They had reached no decision
at this time, however, as to the course
they would take.
