to Meet the BilIS-ViIIa Re-
ports on Execution.

NEW YORK. May 2s.-Francisco
Urquidi. acting consul general at New
York for the Mexican constitutional
lists. made public Wednesday night
some interesting information from
Monterey, Paredon and Tampico.
Official dispatches from Gov. Villa

war tax TO .he rebel forces. I'm
mediately the properties were seized.
That is not the only innovation OF
government by the rebel civil author
tiles. Women Of the undesirable class
have been banished from the state.
The majority followed the fleeing fed
real has seized the breweries and is
all other business houses had been
opened.
Several priests were banished.
Gen. Villas official report Of the
execution of federal prisoners al
Paredon has just arrived. According
TO Villa only one general and some
or the others were executed. he
states that they were first found guilty
of provoking the lower classes TO rise
against the United States as we'll as
the constitutionalist forces. Gen.
| Carranza has appointed commission
ers TO visit the United States immedi-
ately. These emissaries are to study
our school system; factory system
! banking methods; seek new business
! ideas from our best merchants, job
bers and wholesalers and investigating
| the operations Of the largest munich

The first of these commissioners
will soon arrive. They will probably
visit all the larger cities Of the coun-
| try.
From Tampico a brother of Senior
Urquidi wired that business conditions
were just the same as before the wal
| started.
In the official report Of Villa, con-
! corning the capture of Paredon, is
| contained the statement that 6,000,-
| 600 rounds Of cartridges were taken

PREPARE PLANS.

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The state
and war departments Wednesday
considered plans for the protection Of
the 400 Americans and other foreign
ers in Mexico City in the event of
Huerta's flight.
CarranZa refuses positively TO ac-
cede to the administrations demand
that he agree TO the establishment OF
a provisional government after the
constitutionalists capture Mexico City
and pending a general election. This
was confirmed Wednesday by one OF
Carranzas representatives in Wash
ington.
John Lind, special representative of
the state department, and Charles A.
Douglas, general counsel for the con-
stitutiOnalists, were in conference with
Secretary Bryan Wednesday. The
state department is bringing heavy
pressure TO bear to induce CarranZa
TO yield and participate in the medi-
alton congress.
The assistance which the admins
tratiOn has given him in the past and
the necessity he will have for future
American aid are the main arguments
being used on him.
II is believed now that Carranza
will name delegates to the conference
but with such strings tied TO his par
ticipation in the proceedings that he
will be yielding in very small degree.

the lives of four men and some twenty

The Mexicans, under General Gustavo
Mas, the commandant of Vera Cruz,
put up a stubborn resistance. General
Mas challenged the advance of the
Americans almost from the first, and
made it cleaT that the Mexicans do not
propose to permit peaceful occupation.

Settle That Refrigerator Question Today

with a Herricl or BOhn Syphon. The question of
where and how you keep your food is vital ques-
ton. OF course the first consideration is one of
health. No refrigerator, no matter how cheap the
cost, can be considered that will permit any damp
ness or stagnant air. The Herrick and BOhn Syphon
are so scientifically constructed as to provide con-
slant current of pure dry cold air in every square
inch of the interior. And then the presentday high
cost of living makes the consideration of the ice
question an important one. These refrigeratOrs are
so made that they will save their cost in your ice
bills And doesn't food cost too much to be improp-
