FL Paso, Tex, Nov. 1.-THE city of
Juarez has been captured by General
Panoque Villa and a force of several
thousand Constitutionalists. The
capture resulted from a surprise at
tack which began at a. m, and
which was followed by four hours of
fierce street fighting.
Mexican rebels numbering $500
made the customs house their head
quarters. General Castro, federal
commander of JuareZ, has fled.
Major Ceryero Maresa, commanding
the rebel detachment guarding the in
ternational bridge, said that seventeen
federals and four Constitutionalists
were killed during the fighting. One
American met death in Ell Paso.
AS soon as he had captured the city
General Villa announced that the
lives and property of all Americans
would be protected by the Constitu-
tionalists. The attack on Juarez be-
gan two hours after midnight, when
$500 rebels suddenly appeared in the
streets under Villas personal com
mand.
They caught the federal garrison
completely off guard and trapped the
defenders almost before they knew
they were attacked.
Villas men came in on federal
train, wearing federal uniforms. They
deplc.ed about the city under cover
of dal kness and then opened fire from
three sides simultaneously.
Too Late for Resistance.
The federal patrols aroused the gar
risen as rapidly as possible, but the
attackers had gained positions o.
strong advantage before formidable
resistance could be organized by Colo
mel Castro, the Huerta commander
For two hours the firing in the street:
was fierce, and then at Ais the Con
stitutionalists captured the customs
house. Occupying this as his head
quarters Villa sent detachments out Il
seize the approaches OF all rive
crossings into El Paso in order t.
prevent any fugitives from escaping Il
the American side. The city had fall
en- at 4:30, although firing continued
until shortly after o'clock.
AS soon as the fighting began th'
rebels cut all telegraph and telephone
wires between Ell Paso and Juare
and these were out OF commission TO
several hours. Later, however, whei
the city had fallen they restored thu
wires and telephoned the result o
the fight.
During the firing General Hugl
Scott, commanding the United State
troops on border patrol duty here, i'm

parent hope for speedy settlement.

and a writ of error will be applied for
on this ruling, Mr.. O'Shea said.
The jury, after being out for about
half an hour, reported disagreement
and asked additional instruction from
the Judge. Mr. OShea objected to the
instruction given the jury by Judge

for a new trial on this ground. Snow
was committed to Jail pending the dis
position of this motion.

SENATORS CANNOT AGREE
ON PATRONAGE DIVISION
Vardaman of Mississippi Calls
on President to Get Of
fices for Democrats.

Senator Vardaman of Mississippi wants
some patronage for the democrats of that
state, and he told President Wilson to-
day that he would like to see some of the
places now filed by republicans go to
stanch democrats The President is per-
fectly willing but the trouble has been
that Senator Vardaman and Senator VIII
liams cannot agree upon a division. Those
who claim to know the situation say that
Senator Vardaman has expressed a will
lingness to divide the United States at
torneyships and marshalships equally and
let Senator Williams have the choice of
the division, but nothing has come of his
offer SO far.
The two men will again try to get to-
gether, as the President has steadily de-
clined to assume the responsibility of d.
viding patronage in a state where the
senator's are in disagreement, as IS the
case in a number of states. His dictum
agree or go without patronage.
President Wilson cannot attend the an
nual dinner OF the Carahao Society De-
cember IL, at the New Willard but ne
will accept honorary membership in the
organization, President Taft having been
an honorary member. The committee
calling on the President was composed of
Gen. C. F. Humphrey. Gen. James b. Ale
shire, Admiral T. II. Howard and Maj.

SOCIALISTS SHOWING
IN TUESDAY ELECTION
Close Race With Independence
League for Fourth Plsce
in New York.

NEW YORK, November 1.-THE official
count of the vote for chief Judge of the
court of appeals is awaited to show
whether the socialists or the Independence
League are entitled to rank as the fourth
party in New York state and nominate
their candidates at the next election with
out petition. Socialist leaders asserted
today that they had retained their rela-
tive position-after the republicans. demo-
Gratis and progressives.
The official party strength in the state
this year is determined by the vote for
chief Judge, the head of the ticket. Will
lard Bartlett, the democratic candidate,
also appeared in the independence League
column.
Ran Ahead of Ticket.
The socialist candidate, Henry l..
Slobodin, polled 81, 100 votes in New York
city, running slightly ahead of Charles
E. Russell, socialist candidate for mayor,
whose total was 32.256. Returns from up
state indicate that Mr. Slobodin ran
ahead of most of the local candidates on
the socialist tickets.
In the city the socialist vote increased
nearly 800 per cent over that cast at the
last municipal election, but fell few
hundred behind the vote for Debs, the
party's candidate for President in 1912.
Captured Five Ohio Cities.
According to figures received today by
the Call, the local socialist newspaper. the
party made its best showing in Hamilton,
Shelby, Canal Dover. Coshocton and
Martins Ferry, Ohio. where they captured
the city governments; in Paterson, y. j.,
where their candidate for mayor ran a
close second; in Erie, Pa. where they
elected several of the municipal officers
and in Haverhill. Mass. where Charles
II. Merrill, a well known socialist. was
elected to the state house of representa-
tives for the fifth time.
