SWEEPING TOWARD THE
SOUTH AND EAST.
Paralyzing Roads and Frustrating
Wires-Many Cities Are Facing
Grave Fuel Famine.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Chicago.-Preceded by sleet and
high winds, a blizzard came out of
the northeast and continued with una
bated vigor all of the day. 1t is still
in progress, but the temperature is
lowering rapidly, and the snowfall is
likely to diminish in volume during
the night.
The snow is drifting badly because
of the high northeast wind, and trains
in every direction from Chicago are
reported late. They are unable to
make steam because of the cold and
snow blowing into the pipes and fire
boxes, and the tracks are under sew
eral feet of snow in the cuts.
The sleet did much damage to wires.
Los Angeles and San Diego and other
cities in that district have no wire
and no railroad communication. They
are getting their news of the outside
world by boat from San Francisco.
The total of death in the storm is
reported to be eight.

ASKS U. S. TO FIGHT TYPHOID
Senator RansdeII Urges Government
to Appropriate $5oo,ooo for the
Purpose.

Washington, Feb. 23-Contending
that ii was just as proper for the fed
eral government to spend money to
eradicate malaria and typhoid fever
as to investigate the cattle tick. hog
cholera or dourine in horses, Senator
Ransdell introduced bill to appro-
pirate 100000 to fight malaria and ty-
phoid. In explanation of his bill SEN
ator Ransdell said the federal govern
ment was justified in fighting typhoid
and malaria because the victims of
these diseases travel from state to
state. He added that the government
could do no better work than to show
the farmer, particularly, how to eradi-
cate the conditions which produce
these diseases.

FOREIGN SOLDIERS DEpoRTED

Chihuahua-GenV Villa. ordered all
foreign soldiers in his army, especial
ly those of American or British ante
cedents, and all foreigners in the state
of Chihuahua, except those who are in
business or are vouched for by busi-
ness men, to be. immediately deported.
He gives as his reason for this order
that so many foreigners are coming
into this country and being reported
missing or having been executed that
the constitutionalist cause is being
greatly injured.

British Press Assals v. S.
London, Feb. 23.-British newspa-
pers assailed the United States gov
eminent for its policy in Mexico, and
declared that action should promptly
be taken to prevent any further crimes
such as the murder of William S. Ben
ton, the wealthy ranch owner.
The foreign Office stated that it had
no information concerning the execu
ton of Benton beyond the newspaper
reports and the officials refused to dis
cuss the matter.

which is involved in the assertion of
the Monroe doctrine and its denial of
the right of European government to
protect its own subjects in Mexico, but
they have the additional responsible
ty of supplying General Villa and the
Mexican rebels with arms and thereby
promoting lawlessness, which has had
such grevious results to British lives
and interests. President Wilson has
gone too far to shrink from going
farther"
'Benton's summary execution" says
the Evening Standard, ''if it's fact,
only emphasizes the fact that Mexico
is a semi-barbarous country and some
kind of international compulsion will
soon be necessary to stop its wallow-
ing in this style of corruption and
cruelty"
The Evening News hold President
Wilson partly responsible, though de-
feding his motives.
