1863 Refugees Back in United
States

New York, Sept. %. The Red
Star liner Zealand came in today
from Liverpool with 1868 passen-
gers from the war zone of Europe.
All had stories to tell. DR.. H. H.
Mccarthy, of Spokane, Wash,
was in Berlin when a train con-
tanning several hundred wounded
British prisoners passed through.
A crowd of hoodlums attacked
the train, crying: Kill the En-
glish!"
AS the prisoners were shackled
at the ankles and wrists they were
helpless. A squad of German
cavalry charged the mob and beat
it off with the broad sides of their
sabers. Henry De Sibour, Amer
ican, living in London, who was
marooned at Belfort when the
war broke out, on one field saw
squares of dead German soldiers.
Those on the outside had fallen,
but the bodies toward the center
of the square were standing up
right, leaning against each other.
Officers told him machine guns
were responsible for this whole
sale killing.
Mrs. De Sibour declared a near
relative of hers who is an officer
of an English railroad had told
her his line had transported $780,
600 Russian troops across Eng
land. The steamship Aquitania.
she was told, was used to trans
port the troops to a remote point
of the French coast.

Divorce Statute q Good One
to Make Over, Declares a
Santa Fe Attorney.

That the state legislature,
which meets again in January,
may be asked to change the d.
vorce law in New Mexico on the
ground that the abandonment
clause is what lawyers term 'un-
guarded" is the view held by
several Santa Feans who have
had occasion to study the law.
1t has been said that divorces
are easy in New Mexico because
the law has the abandonment
clause, but does not set a limit.
Therefore, should a man or wo-
man leave tomorrow, the next
day a complaint charging aban-
donment could be filed and di-
vorce asked, and unless the de-
fendont appeared to make a de-
nial it is up to the court, under
the law, to grant the request for
a divorce.
Commenting on this statement,
a Santa Fe attorney said: with
a convenable judge, tits true, that
a hardship might be worked on g
married man or woman, especial,
ly in a case where notice is not
served in person, but is pub.
lished, the notice perhaps escap'
ing the attention of the person
who is travelling. Ordinarily,
however, it seems safe to say
that a Judge uses discretion il
granting a divorce. Taking {
little joy ride to Lamy or going
out to see the cliff dwellings
would not be considered aban
donment. The law should be safe
guarded, however, and it does
appear that there is room for i'm
proving the wording of our di
vQrce statute. "

of Commerce and Labor has just
completed a report giving the in
debtedness of the different states
of the Union, the nation and
world. The data contained in
compilation relate to the year
1912. The state debt of New
Mexico is shown to be 81, 237, 600
that year, compared with $870, :
900 twenty years previous, which
is an increase of 1857, 900. The
per capita state debtof this state
in 1912 was $3.41 and $5.42 in
1890. At the present time about
four-tenths of one per cent of
the population of the United
States is in New Mexico and
four-tenths of one per cent of the
total debt is credited to this state.
The National debt of the Unit
ed States is $1,O28, 100000 and
the indebtedness of all countries
of the world is $42, 900, 900, 600.
European countries owe about
two-thirds of the World debt and
their proportion is rapidly in
creasing, as the present war, ac-
cording to experts, is costing on
an average of $50, 900, 600 a day.

Peace in Sonora Up to Gov
ernor Mayt0rena.

Nogales, Sonora, Sept. IT,
Reports to the contrary notwith-
standing, General Juan Cabral
said today that General Benja-
min Hill, whom he was sent here
to succeed, would turn over the
office Of military commander OF
the state of Sonora to him. Ca
bral's principal difficulty now
seems to be with Governor Jose
Maytorena, who was oruered to
relinquish military affairs and
retire to Hermosillo to devote
himself to civil functions.
General Cabral conferred with
the governor here today, seeking
to induce Maytorena to surren-
der command Of his troops.
Cabral, in an interview, said
if the governor would do this,
Hill would turn over his COM
mand also, and affairs in Sono-
ra, now on the verge Of open
rebellion, would he promptly
settled.
General Cabral said he was
not inclined to correct the gov
ernor, but desired to give him
time to consider the effects and
results Of continued rebellion.

Burns Resignation Not to Be
Accepted.

Unless his health should fail,
State Senator Thomas D. Burns,
Of Terra Amarillo, Rio Arriba
county, will likely serve out his
term in the state senate. AL
though the senator has been at
a mineral spring resort, he is
said to be in good health. The
rumors that have been spread
that the governor will issue a
proclamation calling for an cleo
ton of state senator from Rio
Arriba county on November 8,
has been definitely knocked in
the head.
In conversation with friends
and officials the governor has
made it quite plain that he is not
thinking of accepting the resig-
nation, or of calling an election
or Of providing for any senatorial
vacancy from Rio Arriba county
or any other county.

HUERTA DEBT IS
GIVING CONCERN
In WASHINGTON
1t Is Believed That Carranza
Expects to Repudiate Obli-
cations for Which Pred
ecessor Pledged Customs:

Washington, Sept. 22.-Of-
hcials here expressed the opin-
ion today that any problems aris-
ing over the pledge Of Mexican
customs by General Huerta to
guarantee a foreign loan prob
ably would have to be dealt with
py the future Mexican govern
ment. This is one of the ques-
tions being considered in the
negotiations now in progress for
the transfer Of authority at Vera
Cruz to the Carraza govern
ment.
The question looms large up
on the horizon as General Car
rama was reported at the time
Of the consummation OF the loan
as saying he would not recog-
nize the integrity Of any loans
advanced to the Huerta regime.
The United States is interested
in this question because part of
the bonds are held by group
Of American bankers. The loans
amounted to $78,00O,oo0 and
were made last autumn.
a French group Of bankers
holds As per cent of the bonds,
German and English groups l9
per cent each, while | per cent
of the bonds we're disposed of in
the United States. The remain
ing fraction is held by Mexican
bankers. To guarantee this
loan, SO per cent of Mexican
import and export ssduties were
pledged.
More than a million dollars
collected in customs dues at Vera
Cruz during the American occu-
patton is impounded to be turned
over to the Mexicans when the
United States retires from the
port.

REFUGEES SOON
TO Be RETURNED
TO THEIR HOMES
Fort Wingate Will Be Aban-
doned After This Week;
General Bliss Makes Visit of
Preparation Unannounced.


Preparation Unannounced.
Gallup, N. NJ, Sept. %. Fort
Wingate will be abandoned after
this week.
General Bliss was at the Fort
for a short period this week, COM
ing up from Fort Bliss, Tex, alone
and unannounced. Ordinarily,
when a general comes to post
for visit of any kind he is met
at the station by one or two COM
panies of infantry, or couple of
troops of cavalry. This time,
however, the general dropped
into the post in the early morn
ing, made a brief inspection and
dropped out again on the next
train back. He left important
orders, however, to be carried
out by the men in charge of the
post.
General Bliss evidently had or
ders from the war department at
Washington to remove the refu-
gees from Fort Wingate to Eagle
Pass, port of entry in Texas, but
first to interview Governor Nc
Donald as to whether or not the
state of New Mexico had any use
for the refugees as laboring men.
If the state wished to employ
them, they were to be released
from the fort. The state officials
did not take kindly to the matter
of turning them loose in New
Mexico, it seems, and Immediate
ly the general proceeded to Fort
Wingate and left orders that prep
arations be made to remove the
refugees to Eagle Pass, Texas, as
soon as transportation facilities
would arrive at the station.
The greater portion of the wire,.
posts and lumber used in con-
structing the stockade at Fort
Wingate will be torn up and taken
to Eagle Pass. Sixty flat cars
have been ordered from the San
ia Fe Railroad company for the
purpose of hauling this material
away.
The sidetrack capacity at Win
gate station is not very extensive
and it is difficult to handle more
than one train there at a time.
For that reason the material and
the refugees will be taken away
in sections. A certain number
of the tents will be removed and
portion of the fence. This will
be loaded on the cars and shipped
on ahead of the refugees, who
will be under guard of the in
fantry and cavalry until trains
arrive to take them out of the
post also.
About three thousand of the
refugees will be taken away. The
balance which constitutes the
commissioned officers of the in
termed Mexicans and their fam
lilies, over 1000 in number, will
remain here in a small stockade
under guard of company or two
of infantry.
1t is more than probable that
none of the officers of the in
ternes will ever return to Old
Mexico. They all fear for their
lives. 1t is understood that all
of the refugee enlizted men have
been pardoned by the president
of Mexico and they will be al
lowed to enter the national guard.
