Anticipating Professionals Would

BY JOSEPH r, PRITcHARp.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE feature in
the grain markets on the board of
trade to-day was the covering of big
line of May corn by James A. Patten.
That big Spectator made up his mind
that the May corn was oversold in a
liberal manner, and doubtless fearing
that the professionals would all start
TO cover at the same time-Which
would advance prices sharply-he
placed buying orders in the pit and a
dull ad weak market was changed to
a strong one.

"What is necessary cruelty and what

horse along the best he could under the
conditions.
James +. Price said he saw the horse
when IL refused to 60 along the street.
He saw Taley use no cruelty towards

VILLA ARMY
CLOSING In
ON TORREON
BenavldsS Sends Word That
Mexican FederalS We're
Routed at Every Point
FEAR FOR AMERICAN
WRITER'S WITH REBELS
b. the United press.


Ell PASO. Tex, March i9.-General
Francisco villa, commanding the
Mexican rebels before Torreon, today
broke his long silence since tho battle
Of Torreon began, by telegraphing TO
officials at Juarez that he expected
to be In Torreon Sunday.
This was followed by another Off
cial despatch dated Wednesday. in
which villa stated that the Zaragoza
brigade of Constitutionalists, com
manded by General Eugenio Agulrre
Benavides had fought It's way from
Escalon as far south as Yerpo. one Of
the distant suburbs Of Torreon and
expected to enter Bermijillo during
Wednesday night. The Federals, said
villa, we're abandoning all Of their
outposts north Of Torreon and we're
concentrating their forces within
Torreon itself and the cities Of Lerdo
and Gomez Palacio.
These dispatches are borne out by
long message sent 10 bis father
here by General Benavides himself
during the night in which he denied
rumors that he had been slain. Ben.
avides referred TO the fighting Satur-
day. Sunday and Monday about rs.
Gallon saying II was really inconse-
Quential. although annoying. He add
ed that the Federals had been badly
defeated in every skirmish so far and
that all their outpoets we're In fun
retreat toward Torreon
Not a word has been received from
the American correspondents with
Villas army for IS hours. but It is
hoped that Villa will be induced TO
lift this embargo today
II Il be true that Benavides sue
ceeded In getting into Bermijillo dur
ing the night, II would indicate that
General Velasquez, the Federal COM
mander at Torreon had abandoned
all idea of checking the rebel advance
at that point Benavides' Zaragosa
brigade is made up of veterans. Just
as villa relied upon General Tori
bio Ortega's veteran troops TO carry
I the burden of the long attack on
Ojinaga last December. so he has
called upon the Zaragosa brigade 10

Torreon battle.

MlODlEBURY COLLEGE Bull
CETlN.

Middlebury College has issued as a
bulletin the statement of President
Thomas at the hearing before the Edu-
cational Commission. 1t is not a gen.
eral attack upon the Carnegie Founda-
ton Report on Education in Vermont.
Indeed President Thomas endorses the
Report as "a thorough, impartial,
scientific study of the educational sys-
TEN and practice of Vermont" He
says that the experts 'have named the
first and fundamental steps of educa-
tional reorganization and advance, y
and that their report will be "a stimula-
tive textbook of educational advance
in Vermont for many years. He ac-
cepts further ''the principle that the
primary and supreme duty of the State
in educational matters is to its elemen-
tary and secondary schools, and adds
THE college must not be a COM
petitor for resources that are needed
by the little children of Vermont. He
then argues that college appropriations
need not be discontinued to enable the
State to do its duty by the common
schools. and calls attention to the fact
that the income of the State from the
Savings Banks alone the past year has
increased half the amount now eX
pended for higher education. He be
lieves that Vermont will provide cheer
fully all that is needed for a wise and
generous institution of the constructive
program recommended by the Founda-
ton without the sacrifice of ali State
connection with higher education. Ner-
mont ought not to be the only State in
the Union to do nothing for boys and
girls who want to go beyond the high
school. Some form of scholarships
should be maintained, preferably as
signed by competitive examination with
the winners free to choose between the
three Vermont colleges. When the
State is contemplating an educational
reorganization is no time to discontinue
it's strongest department for the train
ing of high school teachers and rural
superintendents. Reform must depend
upon the trained teacher, and Vermont
teachers should be trained in Vermont.
The essential and central feature of the
report is the proposed change from the
town to the State control of schools. or
"the immediate suzerainty of the State
over the public schools" as the report
expresses it. If such board of educa-
tion is organized, they can take care of
such matters as duplication and political
activity of the colleges. President
Thomas claims that he asks nothing
that is not reasonable and fair. and that
the present State appropriation to Mid
dlebury college, being less than one
seventy y-ffth of the annual income of
the State, should be continued.

CLEANUP CAMPAIGN PRO-
GRESS.

The committe in charge of the prepar-
atiors for Cleanup and Paint-up''
week report that the idea meets with
general favor and that excellent pro-
gress is being made in every direction.
Indications are that the week Maya
9 will see the largest number of i'm
provements about houses, yards, and
public parks which the village of Mid
dlebury has known for a long time.
The biggest job will be in the High
school park. This will be in charge
of the prudential committee, who
are already making plans. The
soliciting committee composed of
Messrs. Henry F. Joy, Edward Higgins,
and Charles R. Cheney, are hard at
work.
1t is not intended to limit the work to
eliminating the chief eye-sore in the
village. Every citizen is asked to slick
up around his premises and help make
the town look neat.
The village has been advised of the
campaign in attractive and stirring
posters, which appeared Wednesday
morning. This was the work of the
central committee, Mr. Ira H. LaFleur,
chairman.
The comittee has passed a vote of
thanks to the local papers, which have
given valuable free publicity to the
movement.
The kenworthy brothers have offered
to contribute 25O loads of dirt, and
more if necessary. w. F. Bentley will
donate free advertising in specially pre-
pared slides and the use of his bulletin
boards.
There will be further discussion of
ways and means at meeting of the
officers and committees of the Board of
Trade, which has been called for We'd
