Villa Makes Prediction.

General Francisco Villa, the rebel
leader, SO This campaign,
he says, contemplates not only the
capture of Chihuahua, but also
the spreading of the rebel, or consti-
nationalist authority further south.
He is to be joined in the interior
later by General Carranza, the head
of the revolutionary movement. So far
as the north is concerned, Villa said,
the campaign is between 1880 fed
eral troops and 10000 rebels.
In preparation for the attack on Chi
huahua City, $500 troops with sixteen
machine guns and equipment which
filled three trains have left Juarez
and reached a point fifty miles south.
Villa said he would be in Chihuahua
City within ten days. But the cap
ture of the city, he insisted will be
only an incident of a further advance,
later in CONJUNCTION with Carranza
and other rebel leaders.
I'VE will move right on to Mexico
City," said Villa, that is our des-
tination. The troops now in Sonora
will move southwark, attacking Quay
mas on the way. Those in the east
now centered around Victoria will
move southwest, while | will go right
down through the heart of the coun-
try.

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. Rather

nation to the city clerk.

Shank said in announcing his resigna-

been heaped on me by the safety

New Mayors Statement.
Mayor Wallace issued a statement
In which he said: Il shall do my duty
impartially and f~earlessly. Life and
property must be protected at what
ever cost and the fair name of our
city restored. Every person has a
riphf m conduct hfu nup huoinno~ IN

Mayor Wallace said the police sit

personal charge of the department
for a time. The new mayor has been
prominent in Republican politics for
some time. He served n term as
county auditor and is on his second
term as county chairman.
Shank a Queer Figure.
Shank is probably the most novel
figure that ever occupied the mayors
Office in Indianapolis. He achieved
considerable notoriety by his han.
ding of the saloon problem early in
his administration. Saloonkeepers
who violated the law were taken be.
fore the mayor and in many instances
their licenses were suspended for pc.
RODS varying from a few hours to 60
days. One saloonkeeper's license
was suspended until he could show
the mayor a certificate, signed by a
minister, that he had attended church.
Shank also gained nationwide fame
In 1911 by his fight on the high cost
of living. He found that the city mar.
ket was failing in its original pur.
pose to bring the producer and con.
sumner together and he imported 16
carloads OF potatoes which he re-
tailed at rs cents a bushel. Potatoes
then were retailing at $1.40, but prices
tumbled over night and did not re-
gain their high mark during the sea.
son. He also sold fruits, vegetables
and poultry in competition with the
city market.
He made a fight on insurance rates
In the city which was successful in
causing a reduction totaling $40, 900.
He took great delight in performing
n marriage ceremony and always
turned whatever fee he was given
over to the bride as a present. The
former mayor served one term az re.
corder Of this (Marion) county and
before entering politics was an auc.
tioneer and storage house proprietor.
