 Twenty rebels and fifteen federals are known to have killed. About forty wounded are being cared for in the improvised hospital.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPArCH1

NEW YORK, March 15-Eastern pacity and locomotives one hundred per cent in the last eleven years. but the firemen who are doing sometimes as much as fifty per cent more work than formerly. have received but slen- der increases of pay. William J. Lauck. expert statistician so testified in behalf of the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive Bremen and Enginemen at today's hea:i ing of the arbitration proceedings between the firemen of fifty-four railroads. Lauck dealt with the New York, New Haven and Hart ford. Lake Shore and Erie in detail showing tle earnings of the other railroads.
 The New Haven road he said, paid out $S,0O0 dividends for every 5000 paid in wages to firemen in eleven years. The capacity of the locomo- tive increased 64 5-10 and the eff ciency of the firemen 2S : 10 per cent. it's gain in freight revenues exceeds s10,000,000 but it paid the firemen an increase of only s152,000 | The Lake Shore. he continued. in creased the locomotive tractive pow CT 16S 3-10 and it's total train miles nearly 55 per cent but it increased ! the number of it's firemen only 13 per cent. Each fireman is thus re- quired to handle more than 40 per cent more coal than formerly. The fremen he thought. should have re- ceived 22 per cent more wages than they did
 The Erie railroad. he stated. in crea sed it's tractive power and loco motives l01 6-10 per cent and each fireman increased his efficiency 457-10 per cent. The wages of the firemen were increased about 3S per cent since 1902. he admitted. but this in his opinion was inequitable. inas- much as S4.O00 had been put into
 the reserve fund and betterments for
 every 5000 paid in wages to the firemCr.

TARIFF AGAIN
 CITED AS FOR REVENUE ONLY
Democrats Are Pledged by Every Sacred Obligation to Frame New Schedule for Sole Purpose of Rais- ing Revenue
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINGTON. March 1.-The democrats are going to revise the tariff A call for the special session of congress to meet in April will be issued from the White House in few days. The democrats are pledged by every sacred obligation which the solemn declaration of a national plat form can make to frame their tariff for the sole purpose of raising rev enue. They declare that protection is not only robbery but unconstitutional This has been the declaration of the democrats from time to which the memory of man runneth not to the contrary.
 An interesting commentary upon the sincerity of this declaration is found in brief cOlloquY that oc- cured in the special session of 1909 when the Taft republicans were fram- ing up their colossal fraud upon the American people. The Honorable Benjamin Ryan Tillman. the dis tinguished democrat from South Carolina, for many years a vociferous performer on the tariff for revenue only mourners' bench. had come for tward with a proposition to levy a i duty upon tea. Some hundred mll- ! lion pounds of tea is imported an nually into this country free of duty but in South Carolina gentleman had been experimenting in the effort to produce tea locally and, when Senator Tilman marched out to his support he had succeeded to the eX- tent of growing a crop of 12,0OC Ipounds For the protection of that 900 pounds, MT. Tillman proposed the establishment of d duty which would have levied a tax of 5000 .00t iupon the tea consumers of the coun- try, a modest bagatelle of s75o { pound on the production of Mir. Till lman's South Carolina compatriot. 1 To MT. Tillman's surprise ant grief, his appeal fell upon incredulou
 ears on the other side of the senat' chamber.
 We are asked" said one of hi Opponents, to vote a duty of 90 pc

State Troops at Naco.

NACO, March 17.-Nearly two thOus- and state troops are closing in tonight on the little Mexican border town Op posite this port. After their defeat on Saturday, when General OjedaS and four hundred and fifty federals routed nearly one thousand constituencies, the soldiers of the insurgent states are intent on acting without delay. Es pecially bitter is the feeling over the execution of the prisoners by the fed eral generals orders.
 It was learned today that Colonel Juan Cabral, with seven hundred and fifty state troops left this morning by rail from Nogales by the branch line which circles the south from NOgales to Del Rio and north again to NacO. This force is commanded by one of the chiefs who took Nogales last week. in adition to other groups moving from the east and west. From the direction of Agua Prieta, Colonel Cabrel and Prefect Bacamonte were defeated in the first battle below Naco, are nov ing westward and on the way are re organizing the scattered forces which originally numbered nine hundred and fifty. From NOSdleS two HuHuleu ant fifty picked Yaqui braves are making a forced march to arrive in tome to aiC other groups of state troops.
 Hearing of the approach of theil tribesmen. a few Yaqui members o Ojedas command deserted, depicting the already small force of the Huerts garrison here With the return of the state troops in greater numbers, it i: doubtful if Ojeda will dare venture ou as he did on Saturday to meet thu enemy of four times his strength.

eccentric dance. The girl wanted to
see him, of course. So did large
number of walters, whom the mid
evening dullness had left with moth
ing else to do. One of them stood
right in the girls line of vision.
One slender arm was extended
back of her shoulder, then it shot for
ward. A hard roll just missed the
walters ear, and landed with loud
whack on table in front of him.
There was quite some suppressed
excitement Eight or nine walters
came and stood in a melancholy
semi-circle around the table whence
the missile had been projected, and
stared expressionlessly at the bad
girl. But nothing happened.
A few minutes later, young wo-
man was dancing and singing on the
cabaret platform. Again the broad
shouldered waiter saw the Show

his back.
Zip! This time it was a salt-cellars

There are almost as many head
walters in the Carlton Terrace as
there are angels in heaven, and in a
few seconds that particular table was
surrounded. Animated conversation
took place, with the young lady hold
ing her own in good shape. Soon

walters were left to enjoy the cabaret

might choose.
