Der of women and children, refugees
from Torreon. are reported to have
fallen into the hands of rebels while
| proceeding overland to Saltillo.
The authorities at Saltillo decline
to take the responsibility of sending
force to their rescue. fearing. they
say, that the rebels might commit
atrocities upon the refugees.
The report comes from an Official
source at Saltillo. but has not been
confirmed. The American embassy
has called upon the Mexican forces
to investigate the matter and do what.
ever is possible to relieve the Ameri.
cans should the report prove true.
Senior Gamboa, the foreign minis.
ter, has had no advices further than
the communication to the embassy.
He expressed regret. but added that
it was no more than might be expect
ed as the result of the neutrality
policy of the United States. which
had hampered the administration in
proceeding with strong hand against
rebels and bandits.
Gen. Trucy Aubert, federal COM
mander. with one thousand men, who
is proceeding from the north to the
relief OF Torreon. has just passed
Saltillo. He is travelling over approx
mately the same route as the Ameri-
cans and it is regarded as possible
that the rebels will disappear before
his advance. He is, however, making
slow progress. Meantime the fate of
the refugees remains in doubt.

BISHOP TO BURN
The MORTGAGES
BISHOP MANN WILL BURN THE
MORTGAGES ON GETHSEMANE
CATHEDRAL AT THE ANNUAL
THANKSGIVING SERVICE TO-
MORROW MORNING.

Bishop Mann will burn the mort

morrow morning, which clears the
church of it's Indebtedness and makes
it possible for conservation next
month.
The bishop will be present at the
Thanksgiving service to o%fficiate at
this ceremony which will doubtless be
witnessed by a large number of the
parish members. 1t is considered a
most appropriate thing for the
Thanksgiving day service.
1t has been reported that Bishop
Mann would not be present, at the
Thanksgiving service at ,Gethsemane
cathedral this year but would preach
in the western part of the diocese.
This, 1t has been announced, was err
roneous and the bishop will be here.
He will not preach the Thanksgiving
sermon, however, which will be
preached by Dean Bowling.
