HOLDS COURT
ON THE Street
Gotham Magistrates Conduct Ses-
sions on Corner.

New York, Dec. 1S.-Many mo-
florists have been fined here for fail
ing to provide their cars with lights,
but the first penalty for carrying too
much light was imposed by police
magistrate yesterday. Clifford
Schaufie, the owner of the car, was
fined $40 under a new law which for
bids motorists to show lights so
bright as to dazzle traffic. To de-
termine whether Schaufle's lamps
violated the law the magistrate held
court Tuesday night on a street corn
er and had the defendant drive past.
Another magistrate who held
court on street corner yesterday
tested the police method of timing
motorists from stationary post by
stop watch and found it inaccurate.
After making the test the magis-
trate discharged an automobilist ar
rested for exceeding the speed limit
If the decision stands, the timing of
au tomobilists suspected of speeding
will be left to cycle policemen who
follow the cars and take the time
from speedometers.

GUARANTEES FOR
E|CNERS' RIGHTS
Rebel Military Chief Issues Notice
At Chihuahua
City.
ALL LOOTERS ARE WARNED.
Determined to Deal Summarily
With Supporters of
Huerta.
LII LOOTERS ARE WARNED.

| Chihuahua, Mex, Dec. 19.-Gen
Francisco Villa, the rebel military
chief, issued a notice from the state
palace yesterday that he would guar
antee the rights of all foreigners
and all Mexicans who have given nc
support to the Huerta government
He provided for the severest penal
ties should any of his soldiers at
tempt to loot stores or violate the
rights of noncombatants.
General Villa wished it to be
known that he was in every way in
accord with the wishes of the Unit
ed States that the persons and prop
erty of foreigners should be respect
ed. At the same time, he added, it
would be his policy, both in Chihua-
hua and during his campaign south
ward, to deal summarily with all
people who lend aid to General Huer-
ia. He asserted that the revolution
had progressed to a point where its
success and the downfall of the
Huerta government was assured.
''It has been necessary to deal
promptly and perhaps harshly with
certain elements which have at
tempted to block the progress of the
revolution" said General Villa,
particularly in reference to the
Spaniards, whom it was necessary to
expel. This has brought about great
hardships. In the future the policy
and the determination of those who
are leading the revolt against Huer-
ia will be clearly understood. Cen
eral Carranza and myself are in COM
plete accord
A wireless station is being Install
ed in order to open communication
with General Carranza's headquar-
tiers at Hermosillo, Sonora. General
Carranza is expected here soon.
1t is then Villas intention on Car
ranza's arrival to establish form of
civil government independent of
that at Mexico City. Local condi-
tions, interrupted by the closing of
stores, are being restored to normal
as fast as possible. General Villa
has endeavored to reopen the mines
and smelters and is anxious to re-
awaken industry as fast as the rebel
territory is extended.

May BAR THE
IRISH POTATOES
Dangerous Disease Found on Foreign
Plants.

Washington. d. c., Dec. -
Whether common Irish potatoes from
Canada, Newfoundland, Great Brit
ain, Ireland and continental Europe
shall be barred from the United
States, because of the danger of i'm
portation of dangerous plant diseas-
es, or shall be admitted under the
same restrictions as apply to nursery
stock, was the subject of a hearing
yesterday before the federal horti-
cultural board at the direction of
Secretary Houston.
T. P. Gill, secretary of agriculture
for Ireland; DR.. H. r. Gussow, an
expert of the Canadian department
of agriculture, and G. F. O'Halloran,
deputy minister of agriculture of
Canada, were among those who
spoke in favor of the admission of
foreign potatoes.
Representations have been made
to the American department of agri-
culture that, in view of the short
domestic potato crop caused by last
summers drought, the exclusion of
foreign potatoes would go far toward
raising prices in the United States.
At the outset Secretary Houston
said the question under considera-
ton was not the lifting of an en-
barge against diseased potatoes.

Hair Oil and Broken Eggs in Mail

f1dlT Ull anu 0TOkeu ESSS III Mall
Iowa Falls, Dec. 19.-Many pat
rons of the Iowa Falls postoffice had
their mail delivery yesterday morn
ing with scrambled eggs and the
postoffice force had the unpleasant
duty of sorting and drying a sack of
mail that had become indiscrimin-
ately mixed with a dozen broken
eggs.
At some point in Minnesota. the
eggs had been mailed. In transit
the rough usage accorded the aver
age mail sack was too much for the
frail package.
The same day the local postoffice
force were greeted with an unusual.
ly pungent odor on opening sack OF
incoming mail and it was found that
some one had sent a bottle of hail
oil through the mail without proper
protection and the bottle had brok.

ALMOST CAP!
TURED zAPATA
Rebels Routed in Skirmish and
Chieftain Cuts Way to
Liberty.
RECRUITS ARE SOUGHT
Mexicans Would Be Prepared for
Americans in Case of
Invasion.

Mexico City, Mex, Dec. 20.-The
federal troops just missed capturing
Emiliano Zapata, the rebel leader
Thursday night at Nenapera ranch
in the federal district about fifteen
miles south of Mexico City. Zapats
established his temporary headquar.
tiers at Nenapera ranch during hi:
recent attacks on the government
forces.
The federal troops approached the
| ranch from several directions and
after an hours skirmishing, the reb-
els were routed. Some of the rebel
prisoners told their captors that
Zapata himself was in command and
one of the last to escape. He broke
through the circle of federal troops
with a few companions who used
their machetes to cut their way out.
The report sent to the war Office
by the federal commander said the
rebels were not pursued owing to
darkness and the rough nature of
the country.
Persons coming from the state of
Morelos yesterday confirmed the re-
port that the activity of Zapata is
due to instructions received from
General Carranza. The latter recent
ly sent several emmisaries to confer
with Zapata and other rebel leaders
in the south. They are reported to
have supplied Zapata with funds for
the renewal of his campaign against
the federals.
Efforts are being made to enlist
volunteers in Brazil for service in
Mexico in the event of an American
invasion, according to Ell Pals yes
terday. The newspaper prints a
special dispatch from Rio Janeiro,
setting forth that Luis Gomez, an
enthusiastic Pan-Latinist, has is
sued a circular calculated to awaken
sentiment of solidarity among the
Latin people of the western hemis
phere, to resist the decided imperial
ism of the North American colossus"
Manuel Ugart, the Argentina poet,
who was recently expelled from
Mexico on account of his socialistic
utterances, is said to be interested
in the same scheme as Gomez.
