tached to the Orange police force was
discussed last night at a conference
between the finance committee OF the
Common Council and members of the
Police Commission. The meeting was
called for the purpose of discussing
in detail the annual budget OF the
commissioners with a view to prun-
ing it, If possible. No action was
taken.
The only change made in the
budget. which calls for $50, 563, was the
addition of SIS to the equipment item.
and the deduction Of $50 and SIS from
the miscellaneous and professional
services accounts, respectively. This
amount will practically cover the cost
of purchasing and installing the new
lockers.
The budget calls for S47s more than
last year. and the items responsible
for the increase are the salaries OF
Chief Drabell and Of the patroimen
and chancemen. The raises" total
$3.50, but cuts in other items kept
the increase in tire budget to the figure
stated. Final action on the budget
will be taken at a later meeting

in Revolution.

The audience which viewed the first
reels Of the moving pictures taken
at the headquarters of General Pan
cho Villa, the Mexican Rebel leader.
which were shown in New York yes
terday was thrilled by an unexpected
incident, which added greatly to the
dramatic interest of the exhibition.
In the small room where the films
were shown two young men and an
older man sat near the front. It was
observed that they talked among
themselves and paid little attention to
the others present. The older man
seemed much saddened by the views
of marching soldiers.
That's Madero," some one said.
and the news that the father of the
murdered president of Mexico, who
resides in Arlington avenue, East
Orange, was present spread through
the audience rapidly. After that in
terest was divided between the aged
man and the pictures.
In the second film Villa rode into
the foreground on a spirited horse.
with the ruins of the shell-wrecked
buildings of Ojinaga behind him.
From the plain his soldiers began to
appear and to form in line for the
march out Of the city. They were
all heavily laden with loot and some
carried rifles taken from Federal sol
diers, as well as their own, intending
to turn them over to the unarmed
rebels, who had not participated in
the battle.

before. Among the officers who rode
beside General Villa was one who
waved his hand vigorously. His sal
ute as he refined in his horse at VII
las side attracted special notice.
Francisco Madero jumped from his
seat as the film was displayed.
"Raoul" he exclaimed, my son.
RaouL did not know that he was
fighting"
Alfonso Madero. a brother of the
murdered Mexican president, who
had come with his father to see the
films, induced the aged man TO re-
sumo his seat.
"Al Of US but you knew that Raoul
was with the army and was in the
thick Of the Ojinaga battle" the son
explained, but We did not tell you.
1t was one of the worries we wished
to spare you. I thought his picture
would not show SO plainly that you
could recognize him"
Villas Force Well Organized.
The elder Madero did not view the
third reel of films, but instead paced
UP and down in the hall outside the
room, waiting for his son Alfonso
to join him.
Of actual fighting, inspired respect
for Villas soldiers. The force, it was
evident, was organized for effective
fighting. There was a long ammuni-
ton train. in which pack mules were
used, wagon train bearing artillery
shells and many cannon, which were
so heavy that the soldiers had to
help the small mules that pulled
