ZACATECAS. Mex, June 30 The
number Of constitutionalist officers
killed or wounded was unusually great.
The constitutionalists in many cases
had to advance on their hands and
knees, as those below on the steep in
cline passed the rifles from hand to

under heavy machine gun fire. Nothing
seemed to lessen the determination of
Villa 5 troops, although the federals
had thrown up trenches on all sides.

LOUISIANA'S
SUGAR SUIT.

A petition filed in the supreme
court Of the United States on the
3rd instant asking that the secre

from carrying into effect instruc'
tions issued to collectors of Gus.
toms to admit Cuban sugars after

per cent from the schedule Of du-
ties imposed oD Imports by the
Under wood tariff law,
The proceeding Ia taken in the
name of the state OF Louisiana as
owner of three sugar plantations
and factories operated by convict
labor, and the petition bears the
names Of Attorney General Pleas
ant, ex-senator Bailey of Texas
and Paul Christian as counsel for
plaintiff. The document alleges
that the state will be Irreparably
injured by the allowance of the
preferential reduction complained
Of, and that such action is in con
fiict with the article of the treaty
Of fDecember II, 1912, between the
United States and Cuba, which

ed on the rates fixed by the Ding.

The difference in duties
amounts to twenty-five cents per
hundred pounds of SO test sugar.
The secretary of the treasury
based his order to the customs
collectors upon an official opinion
from United States Attorney Gen.
eral McReynolds, and this opinion
is characterized IN the Injunction
petition as erroneous.
The supreme court permitted
the filing Of the application for an
Injunction, and it is expected the
matter will be passed upon at an
early day.-DoDaldsonville Chief.
