captured are reported to have been
executed at Gen. Villas orders, to-
gether with number of privates.
Many wounded Federals were bayo-
netted on the field.
ION to Mexico City" is now the cry

ammunition. The bodies of dead and
wounded men, carcasses of dead
horses and the bloody accompani-

WAREHOUSE FOR SOUTH.
COTTON EXCHANGE COMMITTEE
FAvORs PLAN.
Scheme Advocated Would Obyiate
Necessity of Shipment to New
York Stores.

New York, Nov. 25.-The commit
tee appointed by the New York cot
ton exchange to consider the extern
sion of the warehouse system to
Southern cities reported in favor of
such a plan today.
If adopted it will mean that it will
no longer be necessary for Southern
shippers to send to New York for
grading and certification cotton in
tended for delivery on contracts.
THE New York cotton exchange
has had for the past 20 years." says
the committees reI ~t. "a very COM
plete system Of es hing, certihcat-
ing and guarant the grades Of
cotton, making = fe and available
on the contract g future delivery
and eliminatin isagreements be-
tween buyer :: seller as to the
grades and W , The difficulty. how
ever, has be ncreasing because Of
our cOnstar charging cotton crops
that one : alone can hardly get
a big emo : stock Of cotton for tho
needs Of also increasing business
in contr for it's future delivery
1T therefore, a sound bust
ness prop sition, and just to both buy
er and seller not to add to the cost
of the cotton the requirements that
all bales intended for delivery on con-
tracts must be shipped to New York
for certification and delivery there.
A solution of this problem is proposed
on the principle Of extending this well
tested system to warehouses in South
ern cities which offer the necessary
facilities of size, safety and available
ity.
IF this plan can be carried out,
and there is not much doubt that all
difficulties can be met and overcome,
it will prove a great boon to the whole
cotton trade. 1t will prevent Icorners
and manipulations of the market und
it will give the owners of the cotton
a reTiabie guarstnree sXe xfGde
thus making 1t more salable to fnitis
at home and also for export to atv
part of the world. 1t will also make
cotton one of the safest collaterals In
the world to loan money upon, be-
cause the bank or banker will know
by the warehouse receipt and the
guarantee Of trade that the cotton is
safely stored in an approved ware
house and what it's market value is"

recommended that buildings be erect
