OJEDA RECOGNIZES
A GOOD FIGHTER
PROMOTES TO BE GENERAL an
ENGLlSHMAN WHO
HELPS HIM.

Naco, Ariz, April l2.-Aslde from
his daring and brilliant righting for
the last four days, two secrets of
General Pedro ojeda's success in de
tending Naeo, Sonora, were made
known today.
One was the possession Of artillery
of the latest French pattern, throwing
two explosive shells minute The
other reason was that an English
man named John Dean, during the
daring sallies of the Mexican soldiers,
has been foremost in the fray. His
presence has been kept a secret COR
"flibusterers" are in disrepute in the
present Mexican revolution.
Dean, by his expert craftsmanship,
was said to have been responsible for
many of the hard defeats suffered by
the horde Of constitutionalists sur
rounding the small federal garrison.
He was assisted in the artillery divi-
sion by two American negroes, de-
serters from the Ninth United states
cavalry.
Dean saw service for many years
in the English army, fighting through
the Transvaal and other campaigns.
Ojeda has promoted him to a general
ship.
Frequen. cannonading at long range
continued today. The state troops
showed no disposition to continue a
concentrated assault on Oieda's posi-
ton. Desertions by the scores from
the eonstitutionalist ranks are re
ported, the officers apparently having
no control Of the men.
Many are crossing TO the Arizona
side. telling the officers Of the United
States border patrol that they are
returning 10 their homes. Genera

slaHnch with their commander

A hurry call for aid was sent to
Leavenworth and the Leavenworth
fire department responded with all
its apparatus. Aided by prison guards
and every available citizen of the
town of Lansing, the department at
lis o'clock hoped to be making head
way against the flames.
Most of the prison buildings are of
brick and sandstone. The prison was
built in 1864 Numerous additions
since have brought the total cost up
to $2,OOO,OOO. There are three large
cell houses containing in all 1904
cells.
IN my opinion much OF the dam
age in the fire was due to the feed
ing Of it by prisoners, said Chief
Bahler, of the Leavenworth
fire department at $3.50 O'Clock, at
which time the fire practically was
out.

Preparing for Disturbances
Brussels, Belgium, April 12.--Sin-
gular variations Of sentiment have
been developed both in the Belgian
capital and in the provinces in con-
nection with the political strike for
manhood suffrage which is expected
to involve 100000 out of the S00,O
Belgian working men on Monday next.
One strange phenomenon is the sup
port, active or tacit, given by the
many employers to the movement.
Some of them have even declared that
they viii continue their woa kmen's s
wages during the strike, while others
have contributed to the strike funds
or offered to take care Of the strik-
ers' children,
The clerical newspapers insist that
rich liberals are privately swelling
the strike fund, while liberal and rad
ical clubs in various cities are openly
supporting the movement by subscrip-
tions.
The minister Of war is transferring
all troops from the posts where they
have been stationed to other places,
where the soldiers have no aequaint-
ances and so cat be used more effer-
lively in case of distrrbances.
