The decline was accelerated by
renewal of the bearish opera lions in

gains extending to two points in the
inactive class, but that movement ex-
cited little interest Crop news was

statement of the treasury department.

The bond market was firm.
Some of the fOrenOOn's decline was
retrieved when selling orders were
withdrawn. The recovery was not of
much importance, the general feeling
Of uncertainty which surrounded the
market defeating tentative efforts to
put prices up.
Fluctuations in stocks were unusu-
ally narrow during most of the after
noon. Traders seemed co be waiting
for some new impulse to again start
prices moving vigorously. Little at

The market closed steady. Buying of

Refugees Near Ojinaga

Maria, Tex, December 4.-Five days
on a desert without any more food OF
water than they could carry with them.
the refugees from Chihuahua City,
evacuated by the federals, were today
within a few miles of Ojinaga, on the
border opposite Preside, Tex. United
States customs and immigration in
spectors left Maria to meet the refu-
gees in the expectation that they would
cross the border and also to meet any
contingency that might arise i'm event
that any of the Mexican federal army
officers should seek safety in this
country.
At the head of the fleeing army Of
ficers is Gen. Salvador Mercado, Huer
ta's military commander in northern
Mexico, who evacuated Chihuahua
after his troops threatened mutiny be-
cause they received no pay. Two thou
sand federal troops, with members of
some of the richest families in Mex
leo. are in the caravan.
Unable to procure vehicles and given
only short time to gather such of
their portable possessions as they could.
the civilians started on foot to follow
the deserting army. The route to the
border is more than $50 miles of desert.
without towns, railroads or wagon
trails. That the refugees endured great
hardships is thought inevitable. Luis
Terrazas, one of the refugees, is said
to have withdrawn 100000 pesos from
the bank before leaving.
Almost every one in Maria left for
the border to witness the arrival of
the refugees. Maria Is about so miles
from Preside and Is connected with it
only by a wagon road and tels-
phone.
