but little in its operation from the meth.

ALL SHIPS OF ATLANTIC FLEE
ARE ORDERED TO TAMPlCo TO
BACK UP DEMANDS.
TO FORCE SALUTE
Ordering of American Warships and
Marines to Tampico Followed TWO
Hours Conference of Lind With
President and Cabinet Officers.

Washington, D. c., April 14.-All
ships of the Atlantic file at Hampton
Roads have been orde As, ampio0'
The battleship South C.cHc., nd
four gunbOats now at sea were Soc
by wireless and ordered to rush
Tampico.
The transport Hancock with eight
hundred marines, has been ordered to
proceed at once from New Orleans to
Tampico.
The general concentration of the
Atlantic fleet at Tampico was ordered
to back up admiral Mayo's demand
for a salute of the American flag.
Before the fleet and marines We're
ordered to sail the cabinet held a
two hours discussion. Lind conferred
with Wilson and Bryan. Lind said
that the United States should insist
on the salute. The navy officers al
so urged that this government should
back up Mayo.
The situation is tense, and Wash
ington officials carefully guarded all
messages about Mayo's demand, so
far received. 1t was reported, how
ever, that the cabinet had informa
ton that Huerta has refused to allow
the salute, but that his refusal was
SO worded that it was not irrevocabls.
1t is thought that Huerta Is still
open to conviction if he could be
shown that Mexican honor would not
he tarnished by saluting the Ameri-
can flag.
Officials here were much surpris.
ed at the press reports that General
Mas said that Huerta's apology was
satisfaction enough. No ultimatum
has yet been issued, but the fleet is
sent to enforce the ultimatum, il
necessary.

Sallisaw, Okla, April 1S.-As a
result of a drunken brawl at Wan
in this county Saturday night, viii
Duyal lies dead and China Gault,
John Waters, Rube Russell and
Charlie Russell are in jail in this
city charged with the murder. These
with other men had been drinking
all day Saturday, aud the last seen
Of Duval was late Saturday evening
when he was in company with the
four accused men.
About midnight, negro on his
way home discovered Duval in an
unconscious condition near a small
branch, with a crosstie on top of
him, and badly beaten up. Help
was summoned and the injured man
taken to his home where he lin
gered until midnight Sunday night,
when death resulted. It is under
stood that the accused men do not
deny that they had fight, but claim
that they did not seriously injure
Duval.
Sheriff Johnson went TO Wan and
brought the prisoners to Salisaw
and locked them up, pending a pre-
liminary hearing, which will be held
Tuesday. Several large rocks were
supposed to have been used as weap-
ons, as they were found near the
scene of the fight, covered with
blood and hair, and the crosstie is
supposed to have been placed on the
unconscious man by his murderers.

BURGLAR MAKES
SMALL HAUL
oVERLookS 500 AND WATCH,
IN HIS HASTE TO GET A LIT
TIE CHANGE.

Last night a burglar entered the
room of Tom Churchman, 3O9 D St,
S. E., and took s5.O5 from the pocket
of Mr. Churchman's trousers, but in
his haste, he overlooked 800 in bills
and a watch that were also in the
same trousers.
Entrance was gained by prying
open a window, and so quietly did
he conduct operations that his pres
ence was not known until this morn
ing. The police were notified and
are at work upon the case.
Ardmore has been especially free
of this variety Of vandal for the past
few years, and very few Of the craft
ever operate here and get away with
it.
Sheriff Garrett and his bunch OF
deputies and Chief of Police Booker
and his gang of sleuths make it
reasonably certain that the last OPP
orator viii be caught before he has
a chance to enjoy the little amount
he got last night.

A LETTER FROM MARROW.
NARROW, Okla, April IL.
The Ardmoreite Publishing Co.,
Arimore, Okla.

AlullOlc, Ohld'
Dear Sirs:
| notice in your paper of the 9th
that you say that it is reported
that the casing is being pulled in
the Hardy we'll in section 1854,
but that the report cannot be con-
frmed."
This is a fact, but it was very
much against the Hardy company's
will to do it. Their time was up
on the lease on the End day Of
May unless they had a producing
well.
Mt. Groesbeck came over to see
me, and l did all that l could 70
help him to get an extension on the
lease, but could not get it. The
owner of the land refused to give
them any further time, and l will
be glad if you will report this fact
in your paper as I do not like to
see that part of the country get
any setback. Thanking you in ad-
vance for this favor, l am,
Very truly yours,
T. T. EASON.
