Mrs. r. ID. j. EnSOr

Mrs. A. ". Kelly-Ensor, wife
of DR.. l.. d. j. Ensor of this city,
was born Nov. 13, 1858, and died
Sept. %, 1918, aged "a years, 10
months and 13 days. She pro-
fessed religion and joined the
church while quite young. At
the time of her death and for
many years past she was a
faithful member Of the Metho-
dist church at Cookeville. She
is survived by her husband, two
sens, w. Frank Ensor of Cooke
vile, and James l.. Ensor OF
Buffalo Valley, and four daugh-
ters, Mrs. Ruth Shanks, Misses
Bertha, Rettie and Naomi En-
sor, all of Cookeville. She also
leaves one brother, Jim. Kelly of
Gordonsville, and five sisters,
Mrs. Emma K. Baird of Elkton,
Mrs. VIM. Gwaltney OF Gordons-
vile, Mrs. A. G. Washburn of
Nashville. Mrs. M. M. Ford OF
Gallatin, and Mrs. j. p. Young
of ROyse City, Texas.
Sister Ensor had BEEN a suf-
ferer for some years, yet she
bore her sufferings with quiet
patience and forbearance, as
only one who had faith in
Christ could do, and said before
the end came that she was will
ing for God to have his way in
the matter.
She had a wide circle of
friends who will miss her hap
py association. She was so
devoted to her family that
many times over she would un-
dergo any privation that they
might come to possess the best
things that go to make for life
and character.
Yes, we shall miss her In the
social citcles of life, in the
church, and we, as members of
the Ladies' Aid will miss her
hearty cooperation and support
in our society.
May God bless her husband
in his lonely hours and the chill
dren in this, their great loss.
Ladies' Aid.

LOPEZ HELD PRISONER.

Lieut.. Dorenzo Lopez. Jr., who yester-
day afternoon shot and killed Captain
Manuel Hermosilla, is being held in the
Quartet in MatamorOs, under a guard of
%rurales. No action has as vet been tax
en- in his case, 50 far as can be learned.
Deep regret is felt in Matamoros and
among the people of that city now resid-
ing in Brownsville because of the tragic
death of Hermosilla. He was Il popular
officer, and was probably one of the most
efficient officers in the Matamoros federal
garrison. His death will greatly decrease
the efficiency of the official staff, it is
said. %-%
Mrs. Hermosilla, who is up only four
days after an acc2uchement, is pros
trated and her friends fear for her life.
The difficulty between Capt. Hermo-
silla and Lieut.. Lopez is said to have
been the result of an effort by the for
mer to arrest Martin Espinosa, formerly
city treasurer of Matamoros. presumably
OF suspicion that Espinosa was a Con
s~titutiOnalist sympathizer.

USUAL SUNDAY THREAT
BLANCOS FORCES AGAIN REPORT
ED TO BE ABOUT TO ATTACK
HEROIC CITY-CASTRO TO DI-
RECT.

With the arrival of Saturday. the us
ual pre-Sunday reports regarding the
expected arrival of the Constitutionalist
are in circulation. Today the streets
have been alive with information con-
corning the movements of the rebels.
Many people have come to the point
where they refuse to believe any Of the
reports that have arisen. say they do
not believe an attack will occur until
they actually neal the echoes of the
guns. For the 'steenth time. it is report
ed that Blanco's troops have left Rio
Bravo. and are marching eastward. Ac-
cording to this report, the last section
left this morning and one division is re
ported to have left Rio Bravo yesterday
afternoon, late. Perhaps It's true, or per-
haps not.
According to information obtained
here. Blanco has placed the handling Of
the active troops in the hands Of Col
Onel Castro, and it is expected that if 4
battle actually takes place the colonel
will be the leader of the attacking fore
es. BlancO and other members of his per
sonal staff will remain in Rio Bravo,
and will receive reports from the front
by telephone. this having been accom-
plished through the seizure of a tele-
phone instrument at Rio Bravo. The tel
ephOne will be taken forward and con
nected when needed.
Colonel Castro is Il veteran of the Ne
derO revolution, and is scaid to be one
of the best officers in BlancO's command.
He has been at the head Of most Of the
fights in Tamaulipas during the pres
ent uprising and it is said Blanco des-
Tres to allow Castro the honor of com
pleting the campaign in ~Tamaulipas.
The second officer in command under
Castro will be Major N%afarattc, who a
short while back led the revolving 21st.
~rurales against the city of Victoria. but
was not successful, for, according to
General BlancO, in this attack Nafarattc
only desire was to see how strong Il force
of men he had.
From a report brought to the city by
Henry Crockett. a troop of about TWEEN
ty-five soldiers. whom he took to be con
StitutiOnaliStS. was seen late yesterday
afternoon about seven miles south OF
MatamoroS, opposite the Piper planta.
ton, located on the American side. Crock
EFT said the troop came down to the
river to water their horses. and he hap
pened to be standing on the American
bank when they appeared. He believes
them to have been constitutionaliStS
as he was familiar with their appearance,
having seen the constitutionaliSts al
Rio Bravo where he was employed until
recently.
If the men seen were actually consti
tutionalists, there is an indication thai
the city of MatamOrOs may be attacked
from the east as well as from the west
when the attack occurs. if it does.

Currency, Law is
Now the Demand

Washington, Oct. 6-President Will
son received scores of kilograms from
all parts of the country today con-
graduating him on the personal vic
tory which concluded in his signing
of the Democratic tariff revision law
last night. Many of these gave en-
thusiastic Endorsement also to his bold
demand that currency legislation
should be pushed to enactment before
the adjournment of this session.
The first step toward the actual ad-
ministration of the Underwood-Sim-
mons tariff law was taken by Assist
ant Secretary of the Treasury Ham
lin when he forwarded to the forty
two collectors of customs certified
copies of the new measure.
1t will not be practicable for all Of
the new rates to be put into effect on
Monday. Pending the receipt Of in
dices; the treasury department has
issued orders that the rates of the
Payne -Aldrich law shall be levied.
This Of course does not mean that
these rates will be collected actually,
but merely assessed upon goods Of
fered for entry into the United States.
There are many provisions as TO
the administration Of the Under
wood Simmons bill which differ fron
those Of the Payne-Aldrich act.
These changes cannot be enforced
until departmental regulations en-
bodying them can be promulgated At
the treasury department and for
warded to the various ports of entry.
The commissioner of internal revc-
nue. put in the day studying the in
come tax provisions. He has decid-
ed that there is no need for haste
in promulgating the new regulations
for the collectors Of internal revenues,
as the law does not require the with
holding Of incomes at their source
to begin until November l. The Or

BONDED WAREHOUSES;
DISCORGE THEIR IMPORTS

New York, Oct 6-New York bond
ed warehouses, iammed to capacity
with imports. started Saturday to dis
gorge themselves as importers releas-
ed their products under the reduced
rates of the new tariff law.
The New York custom house opened
an hour before the usual time and
with fifteen additional clerks pressed
into service, was to remain open till
midnight. Duties will be assessed
on the basis Of the Payne-Aldrich act,
but refunds, where necessary, will be
made when official copies of the law
were received.
The situation confronting import
ers today was the reverse Of what it
was four years ago when the Payne
AIdrich law became effective. Then,
instead of hold.aa goods in bond and
releasing them at reduced rates.
steamships raced to port with cont
modities on which higher duty was
to be charged.
Several vast consignments came in
just in the neck Of time. Huge ship
ments viii soon begin to arrive from
abroad More than sixty brokers
were in line when the custom house
opened.
1t was estimated that 5000 separ-
ate shipments would be withdrawn
during the day, instead of the usual
600.
After the warehouse had closed it
was announced that receipts for the
day amounted to 100000, sum rep
resenting an approximate increase of
100 per cent over the average Satur-
day receipts on bonded warehouse
Withdrawals. During the day there
were about 400 Withdrawals
