If unable to supply the demands for doc umentary stamps for bills of lading permit shipments to go forward, keep a record and cancel stamps later. No tifv the railroads"

DR, CHAP|N SAYS DIRT |S
 N0T REAL CAUSE 0E DISEASE

the detriment of real public health work, Dr Chapin cited what he called the "old heresy about the all-import- ance of dirt in the causation of dis ease" He said that it is doubtless true that whatever encourages cleanliness tends to discourage the habits which favor infection, but he believed that ito fight all kinds of dirt instead of limiting attacks to dangerous dirt is misleading and futile.'
 Dr. Chapin especially criticised much of the publicity on the relation of air to disease. He stated that the old the ory of .exhaled poisons had been de- molished; that germs rarely floated in
 the air; that we are still in profound ignorance as to. the relation of humi- dity to disease; that most of the sup posed effects of foul, unventilated rooms have been shown to be due to temperature and odors.
 Food adulteration, except in few instances, he said lis an economic, not health problem. As to partially decayed foods we know nothing about their relation to health. The clean handling of foods is most desirable from a sanitary standpoint but real cleanliness is most difficult of attain ment Much that appears is carelessly written and the emphasis is placed on the wrong thing, as when dust absorbs all the attention and nothing is said about dirty hands

Forces of Avilez and Cantu at Bay in Lower Califor- mia Following Quarrel Between Prefect and Mill tary Commander
HOSTAGES HELD
 ON BOTH SIDES
Four Villa Soldiers Cap tured by Governors Troops Among Those to Be Shot at Sunrise-More Casualties at Naco
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHJ

TIA JUANA, Mexico, Dec. 1. - With six hostages held in both camps under sentence of death at sunrise, the armies of Governor AvileZ of Lower California and General Cantu, military chief of the northern dis trct of the state, lie just outside this town tonight, each waiting for the other to make the first move. Ac- cording to latest reports, Major Miguel Santa Cruz, commanding the Avilez forces, which hope to capture the town from the Cantu garrison, plans to begin an attack at dawn tomor- row
 The first demands for the surrender of Tia Juana were received at Il o'clock this morning when Lieutenant Guerra, formerly prefect at Mexicali, was sent by Santa Cruz to call upon the defenders to give up their arms before o'clock in the afternoon. Guerra. who approached the Tia Juana barracks bearing a white flag, was immediately seized by Mendleta, commander of the garrison, who de- clared that the prisoner would be put to death within eighteen hours. On hearing of Guerra's capture, santa Cruz announced that five alleged Villa officers, whom he seized at En- senada. would also be executed.
 The present outbreak in Lower California is the result of a quarrel between Balthazar Avilez, governor of Lower California. and General Cantu, commander of the northern military district. with headquarters at Mexl- cali Two weeks ago Avilez, who held office by virtue of an appointment from Villa, selected Lieutenant Guerra of Ensenada to be prefect at MeXicall. Guerra and Cantu quarrelled ana the commander of the northern dlstrlct compelled the prefect to leave. AVliez then went to Mexicali and ordered Cantu to allow Guerra's return, but the officer refused.
 Last Sunday afternoon Santa Cruz and Avilez left Ensenada with body of BOO troops to attack Tia Juana, the plan being to drive Cantu and his fac- ton out of the northern part or the state. With them they took four Nllla officers from the Ensenada garslron' who are charged with revolting against the governor. Early this morning word was brought to Tia Juana by automo- bile of the advance of the Alilez troops and the garrison immediately made preparations for defense. few hours later the attacking force appeared on the hills above the town and the de-
 mand for surrender was sent to the commander of the garrison.

Face Police Reserves

NEW YORK, Dec. Police re- serves were needed this afternoon to restrain the crowds which besieged the
 United States internal revenue offices
 here in attempts to buy tn new war tax stamps. A solid line of would-be
 purchasers extended for blocks. grow
 ing increasingly restive- as the hours
 passed.
 When the offices reopened at three
 o'clock after an hours recess to give the collectors an opportunity to count
 the money received and send it to the
 bank, so fierce rush was made for the stamp windows that policemen already on duty could not cope with it. By the efforts of the reserves the crowd was brought to order again, and the sale continued until all who remained in line had obtained stamps. At the offices in the customs houses similar crowd struggled, although not so boisterously, to obtain stamps. As result of an appeal to the treas ury department at Washington, two re- lief branch offices were opened nearby and were immediately swamped by the rush.
 As a further measure of relief Col lector Anderson announced the pen alties would not be strictly enforced | if the law was not absolutely obeyed
 the first day.
 l The greatest rush was in connec- tion with bills of ladings and railroad | and steamship offices were on the verge of complete blockade through
 inability to obtain the stamps.

ADMIRAL MARIAN PASSES AWAY AT RIPE 0LO AGE
Leading U. $. Naval Off cer, Writer and Close Ob- server of European War, Succumbs to an Attack of Heart Failure
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHl


 WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-Rear-Ad- miral Alfred T Mahan, retired, ac- claimed in naval circles as the greatest modern writer of naval strategy" died in the naval hospital aged "A years. Death was due to heart trouble. The admiral had been in feeble health for several weeks, but was not generally known to be in critical condition.
 Admiral Mahan had greatly over the present great European conflict and it is thought the many long hours he devoted to following the naval operations of the belligernts probably causd the breakdown which hastened his end. In the early stages of the present European war Mahan, whose works are naval text ooks known almost the world over, discussed for the newspapers the sig nificance of, various naval maneuvers. He gave up these activities when the president issued the proclamation ex- h0rting navy and army officers to desist from anything resembling par tisan discussion of the conflict in order that the position of the United States might be one of strict neutral ity. He. however. did not relax his close observation of all that went on in Europe.
 Admiral Mahan came to Wash ington from his home in Quoque, Long Island, early in the autumn. and planned to spend the winter in Washington. Surviving him are. his widow two daughters Misses Helen and Ellen, and one son. l.. E. Ma | han. Commodore Dennis Mahan of (ropt;puoa I-ro ua,o r,r\

 PRIMING FOR RECORD
They Win Try To Lower Barney OIdfieIds Mark In
 Contest

PHOENIX, Aug 26.-Can they do t? That is the question Barney Oldfield made it in 4S-seconds in his magnificent high power "Christy.' The "Christy" could have gone much faster It was only a question of whether 1t could have stayed on the ground and negotiated the turns. It was simply a question of how close to death lt could go and escape
 Barney established track record on the State Fair Grounds Track, of iS-seconds. and the motorcycle boys assert that they vii flower it two sec. ouds at the Arizona State Fair this year
 One or the races scheduled for all motorcycles is a mile trial, open to an riders and to all classes of ma chimes
 Several of the great factories will send their "crack riders out with what is termed ported" machines, for the special purpose of making the fastest mile that ever was made on any track and particularly on the wonderful track at the Arizona State Fair Grounds
 The question is, can human Mesh and human mechanism stand the strain of such a test? Can a human being make such a mile on a dirt track and live?
 IL win be a wonderful test, a won derful mile
 Two great motorcycle road races will precede the Fair. One from Los Angeles via San Diego, to the Fair Grounds and the other the Northern Arizona Inter-city contest The North ern Arizona Road Race will start at . Springerville and go by the way of 1 St. Johns Holbrook, Winslow, Flag staff Williams, Ash Fork, Prescott i Wickenburg to the Fair Grounds
 Something like forty entries have already been made in the Coast Race and it is thought that more than tha, number will be entered in the North ern Arizona Race The Northern Arl zona Race will be a great endurance run
