WAR PREPARATIONS
 ARE GOING ON Washington Expects 8, Re neWal of Civil War That
 Has Upset Mexico. DIAZ AND HUERTA
Give Evidences of Open iI0stiEitias Message to 's'aft is icIt
 Unanswered.

Washington, Feb. 19.-The first ef- feet in Washington of the 'provisional peace in Mexico was an overspread- ing gloom which encompassed the White House. State War and Navy Departments and an insistence upon the immediate carrying out of all the War preparations up to the time of the official news that Gustavo Ma dero, brother of the Mexican presi- dent, had been shot.
 Grave embarrassment was felt at the White House because of the re- ceipt of a dispatch from the military director signed "Commander-in-C -Chief' General Huerta, to the president of the United States. Such dispatches are usually received and replied to immediately With congratulations It gave the Taft administration chill.
 The president referred the Huer- ta firebrand to Secretary Knox who is to wrestle with the proper reply. Most diplomats think there will not be any reply unless General Huerta proves he can do what he says at once. In fine, the officials of this government expect a renewal of the civil war in Mexico City and that it will break out between Huerta and Diaz.
 The whole scheme of the anti-Ma- dero revolution was for the restora- tion of party principles represented by the young and the old Diaz and so far there appears to be open hos tilities between Diaz and Huerta
 The Navy and War Departments were more active today than at any time since the beginning of the reign of terror in Mexico City. 1mpera- tive orders were sent to the Prairie at Newport News to get the marines on board and to sail at once.

WATERS RE-EEErTED
 HOT SPRINGS MAYOR
DEFEATS HiMP WILLIAMS AND JOHN A. RIGGS ON AN "OPEN
 TOWN" PLATFORM.
Jack Archer is Also Reelected Police Judge-Will Watson the
 Treasurer.

Hot Springs, Feb. 19.-(SpeciaD- W. w. Waters was reelected mayor of Hot Springs in the election held here today, one of the most exciting city primaries ever pulled off in Hot Springs. He received more votes than both of his opponents, Hamp Williams and John A. Riggs. Waters vote was 626, Williams, 506 and Riggs, no.
 Riggs ran on a platform of law en- forcement. Hamp Williams advocat- ed "closed town," and Waters ran on his old record of liberal admin istration or an "open toWn," with reg ulated gambling clubs.
 In the race for police judge, Jack Archer was reelected receiving 536 votes. His closest man was Vernal Ledgerwood, who was given 453. Tom Gladson got 176 and B. A. Devall, 7S.
 Will H. Watson, newspaper man, was elected city treasurer, receiving 293 votes. His four opponents ran as follows: Charles Disheron, 243; J. ". Crockett, 1S6; James S. Reamey, 253, and Gilbert H Wooten, 161.

gan, is the only American who fought with Diaz in the arsenal. He said General Mondragon, Diaz' comman- der all through the ten days of fight ing, used every device to induce the federals to make an assault. waiting until they were only a few blocks away and then poured deadly fire into their ranks from the machine guns. These tactics, Mullen said to- day, resulted in the killing of fully fifteen hundred men who were need lessly sacrificed by the federal com mander.
 The list of Americans wounded in yesterdays fighting was augmented today when Miss Bertha Roberts was wounded in the leg by fragment of shell and her father, Fred Roberts. received a sharp wound from the same shot. Tom Lason, another American, was slightly wounded.

CUTTING DOWN
 CITY EXPENSES Approach of Prohibition AL ready Results in Dis charge of Employees. DR. LOWE IS SLATED Two Policemen, Three Street Depart ment Men and Seven "White
 Wings" tO Go"
DR. LOWE IS SLATED

In order to cGt down the expenses
 of the city government and to lessen
 the amount of the 1914 issue of city
 scrip, which IS now being executed by
 the city for collection next year, the
 city council is reported to have de-
 cided to discharge number of city
 employees on March l. This action is
 said to have been taken at the eXecu-
 i've session held by the members of
 the city's legislative body at it's reg
 ular meeting last Monday night. No official announcement has been made by any of the city officials, but it leak ed out yesterday that the retrench-
 ment policy had been definitely decid-
 ed on and that announcement of the
 councils intention will be made at the roper time.
 Among those who are said to be list d for the Mayors axe is City Physic- ian w. T. Lowe. This position pays $65 month in scrip and Dr. Lowe
 has been acting in that capacity for nearly two years. He has accomplish | ed some good work in enforcing the health laws of the city, but it is fig
 ured that this campaign can be con- 1 tinued through the city board of health and the chief of police.
 It is estimated that the expenses of l the city government will be reduced l nearly $5,000 year when the council gets through discharging city em- ployees. The real reason for the coun-
 cil's order is the expected elimination of the saloons in this city, which will deprive Pine Bluff of about $24,000 an-
 nually in revenue.
 1 Already Chief of Police Parnell has been instructed to let out two mem- oers of the police department. He was given instructions to cut the force
 two men on March l. One of them, Floyd Campster, a plain clothes of ficer, has resigned and has taken a
 position in Desha county. Another, 1 Patrolman c. w. sherman, is off look ing for position and his resignation will be asked for on March l. It is
 most likely however, that he will quit before that time Chief Parnell stat 1 cd yesterday that he would add Pa trolman Mitchell to the plain clothes squad to walk nightly with Patrolman
 Roebuck. The discharge of two of
 the city's patrolmen leave only nine
 men in blue uniforms, in addition to the chief and assistant chief.
 Three employees of the city street | department, who are receiving about
 $250 month in salaries are also to

15,OOO GARMENT WORKERS
 OUT ON X STRIKE

Philadelphia, Pa, Feb. 19.-Fifteen thousand members of the United Gar ment Workers went on a strike here today and union officials say that many thousand cloak makers will joir them tomorrow. The strikers demand a forty-eight hour working week and increase of from to 25 per cent in wages, the establishment of sanitary working places and the recognition of their union.
