Rebels Threaten ojinaga.

Iuarez. Mexico, Dec 9.-Prepara- ranks today for some military move ment which, it was thought, would be directed against OiinaGa. where a large part of the federal army had taken refuge. At rebel headquarters in Juarez it was reported that Gen. Francisco Villa, commander of the rebels, had given orders that action against the federals was to be taken.
 The federal strength in or near Ojin. ago, now tho only federal stronghold north of Monterey, is abodt 4,0Oo. Villa has about 1000 q large number of whom, however, he necessarily would have to leave for garrison duty at Chihuahua, Juarez and along the railroad between these cities.
 The proximity of so large a force of federals is said to have given Gen. Villa much anxiety. The belief of the rebels had been and still is, that the federals, after escorting all the ciyi- Hans to the border, will retreat to the south, probably to the State of Nuevo Leon.
 Gen. Villa has taken the position should they not do that, they will con tinue to be menace to the rebels in the north.
 His purpose is to dislodge the fed erals should they attempt 10 remain at Ojinaga, or to hasten their flight if they intend to continue on south ward

KNOXVILLE. July 19.-In an au-

makes the statement that the ex-
position will open its gates on Sep

So far as is known, this will set

The financing Of the project in the
face Of a number Of disappointments
Is something in which the officers
and directors Of the exposition take
pride.
"At the time the exposition project
was first preached" says President
Wright's statement, 1T was expected
that the Congress Of the United
States would appropriate $3.50 600 for
a large exposition building. Through
the action Of one Knoxville man and
OF two or three Congressman this
appropriation was defeated in the last
days Of the last Congress. But the
United States Government viii be
represented at the exposition by suit
mcntsf The defeating Of the appro-
priation bill win make no difference
in the size or the quality Of the Gov
eminent displays.
u have waited so that / might be
sure Of my ground I'm making the
statement that the exposition will be
complete on the opening day, and that
it will be absolutely free of debt on
that day
THE exhibit space under cover has
been increased more than four times
what II was at former eXpositions and
the Midway and outdoor space have
been increased more than five times

who supported him when he first
doomed on the political horizon.
Charles A. TOwne, who was one of

cupying the chief place i'm the Pres

said Mr. .Towne. These are days
when great national issues must be
decided and when the Secretary of
State is required to give every bit

Explanation Only Makes
It Worse, Says World.

(FrOm The n. Y. World, July iG.)
1t is with the most profound regret
that we have TO note the position into
which the Secretary of State has
drawn himself and the explanation
now given which only makes it
worse.
Whether Mr.. Bryan can afford to
take a prolonged vacation at just this
critical time for the Administration
and his own high office may be a
question, but "a minor one. Whether,
under the frankly admitted circum-
stances of personal fortune he can
only afford "a money making vacation,
must be something less than a Ques-
ton with the great masses Of the
people whose life he has lived in sym
pathy.
The real question is whether the
Government for such q position as his
may not justly claim an undivided
service, and whether any other view
is compatible with "a worthy ambi-
ton. We have had men in high office
who have sacrificed personal fortune
TO render such undivided service and
could afford it. We have had many

Action Most Bizarre,
Says Pail Mall Gazette.

LONDON, July 19.-Regarding
Secretary Bryans lecture tour, The
Pail Mall Gazette tonight says;
1T is singular PARADOX in
country where there is so much money
in politics as in the United States
that the chief member of the Presi-
dents cabinet should find his official
salary inadequate to support his eN-
istcnCe.
I'VE can quite understand why $12, -
600 a year is not enough for the Sec
rotary of State, considering the Amer
lean scale of life, but one would have
expected a man of Bryan's moral
courage to call upon his country for
a living wage, to which he is entitled.
rather than TO propose going on the
stump as a lecturer in the roles of
minister and a professional enter
tainer.
They make most bizarre combi-
nation to all British ways of think
ing, and we shall be surprised if even
American opinion reconCiles itself to
their inCOngruity."
