though German music is hardest hit

French music is also gayly satirized
in the Chorus of Headless Wives who
begin to sing "a la Debussy, the
ghostly effect being secured by the
fact that 1t is not, of course, the

ARE THE STATE STREET DEPARTMENT STORES
PLAYING THE COLD STORAGE GAME? r.

may be dragged into the present
probe into the high cost of living.
This much was admitted today by
Joseph P. Geary, chief investigator
for States Attorney Hoyne.
From evidence discovered so far
by our. Investigators we have every
reason to believe that some of the
State street department stores are
playing the cold storage game them
Selves" said Geary this afternoon.
Some of the stores and other big
retailers have their cold storage
plants or are the biggest renters of
cold storage room. This enables
them to play the price-boosting game
themselves.
I'VE have also found that it is GUS
tomary for the State street stores to
buy up some of the surplus stock of
the cold storage men. This happens
when the cold storage men are in
need of little ready cash.

said that he had received nearly

REFUGEES RUSH

IwOThOuSand MexiCanS Seek

BATTLE MORE FURIOUS
Rebels Renew Attack on Oiinaaa,
Raking the Federal Position With
Grape and Canister, but the De.
fenders Resist Stubbornly.

Preside, Tex, Jan. 5.-Two thou
sand Mexican refugees, including
half-staryed women and children and
some federal deserters, rushed across
the river to the United States to seek
protection from the battle at Ojinaga
Mex. opposite here.
The battle at Ojinaga became more
furious after continuing throughout
the night. The besieged federals, who
were thrown into a panic at the first
onslaught of the rebels, resisted stub,
bornly, but were raked by the rebels
n with grape and canister.
Before daybreak the artillery fire
of the rebels became more furious.
Whether they received more ammuni
ton during the night is not known,
but there was no cessation of the
cannonading.
Scores of wounded federals who
crossed to the American side to seek
the aid of the Red Cross told of heavy
losses among the Huerta troops. Scat.
tering bullets fell on the American
side, but none was injured.
Major McNamee, commanding the
American troops at Presidio, made nc
attempt to restrain the refugees as
they forded the river. The women
and children were given provisions
by the Red Cross society and the
wounded were cared for at the hoo,
pital tents.
Two hundred federals made a des.
perate sortie In an attempt to cap.
ture part of the rebel artillery. They
were raked with shrapnel and driven
back with heavy loss.

GARDEN TO BE TRANSFERRED
British Minister to Mexico Goina to
Brazil,

London, Jan. Sir Lionel Garden,
British minister to Mexico, is shortly
to be transferred to Rio de Janeiro
as minister to Brazil. He was ap-
pointed to Mexico July Is, 1913, to
succeed Francis William Stronge.
While Sir Lionel's actions and gen.
eral demeanor since the outbreak of
the Mexican troubles were considered
somewhat indiscreet by the general
public nobody here believed hat he
had done anything to justify the at
tacks on him which appeared in some
of the American papers.
1t is expected that the official state
ment which will doubtless be issued
when the changes are made will ex-
plain that Sir Lionel's transfer to
Rio de Janeiro in no way casts dis
credit on the minister.

No Trace Of Bandit Found by

Bingham, Utah, Jan. 5.-That the

lief of those who continued the search
for Ralph Lopez.
Nothing has been found so far to
Indicate whether the slayer of six
men was dead or alive.
A fresh posse that took up the hunt
In the network of passageways re-
ported nothing new. The search has
been confined to the levels where the
desperate most likely would be
found.
Since Friday, when the mine was
opened, after having been sealed since
Dec. IA, about twenty miles of tun-
nels. slopes and inclines had been
gone over thoroughly.

Mill City Lawyer Seeks Go%vernorship
of Minnesota,

Minneapolis, Dec. 6.-James A. Pc
terson, well known attorney OF this
city, has announced himself as q can
didate for the Republican nomination
for governor. He issued a statement
in which he grills Governor Eberhart
and S. G. Iverson, who have already
announced their candidates..
He charges Governor Eberhart, in
effect, with having allowed predatory
interests to take over control OF the
state government and puts lverson in
almost the same class, asserting that
state public lands have been wasted
under his management.
Peterson says he will take the stump
in every section of the state.

PROPOSE TO FIGHT TO DEATH
Federais Have No intention of Seek.
ing Refuge Over Border.

~
Ojinaga, Mex, Jan. 6.-(Via army
line to Marfa)-All doubt as to the in.
tention of the Northern division OF
the Mexican federal army TO defeat
the rebels or to stay here until every
soldier has died through the exhaus-
ton of ammunition. was dispelled by
General Francisco Castro and General
Ynez Salazar in interviews given by
them at headquarters.
Retreat of federal soldiers across
the border to the United States terri.
tory would be induced only by some
unexpected event. according to the
commanders. and even il all soldiers
deserted, the generals say, they would
remain and die at their posts.
General Salazar is commander OF
the federal volunteers. while General
Castro. suffering from "A wounded
hand. Is commander of the general
forces.
The belief that SO large and SO i'm.
portant a division of the Mexican
army would ask for asylum In a for.
eign country was given basis in the
fight of the army from Chihuahua
about FIVE weeks ago.
1T is thought that we came to the
border SO that IL we were pursued by
Villas rebels We could step across
the border" said General Castro.
Such a plan was preposterous.
Communication Opened.
Our forces evacuated Chihuahua
because we had been isolated there.
We had no way TO obtain money 10
pay the soldiers who remained loyal
to General Huerta. and We had no
means of communicating with the war
department at Mexico City. Our duty
was to open a line of communication
with the government and escort from
Chihuahua citizens who feared they
would be murdered by Villa. We Sc.
lected Ojinaga because it is one of
the best natural Notifications in the
world. 1t also offered a source of
communication with Mexico City, as
well as a port through which we might
get provisions. The position Is here
impregnable. We have ample stores
of ammunition and more than fifty
field pieces. Our losses have been
greatly under those of the rebels.
"Ortego, who came to attack us on
orders from Villa, thought his pres
ence alone would cause us to fee inn
mediately to the United States. He
was surprised when we resisted him.
Our 1000 loyal soldiers, because of
u superior Notifications, are able to
resist 10000 rebels, and there are not
that many rebels in the North. Each
of us Is ready to die, should that be
necessary, and If we eyacuate this
place it will not be to a foreign coun-
try

Presidio, Tex, Jan. 5.-A general
assault upon Ojinaga by General Or.
tega's Mexican rebels began shortly
after midnight and although at day,
light the tederals still held the town
the enemy had advanced on every
side.
In soms cases the rebels even in
vaded the outskirts of the town and
engaged .l>e defenders hand TO hand.
The rebels opened their assault
with a terrific ~cannonading. Both
federal and rebel shells burst on the
American side and Major McNamee,
the commander of the United States
patrols, twice sen warning. His
warnings were needed Immediately.
None was hit on the American side.
Refugees say the streets of Ojinaga
are filled with dead. American army
surgeons say they estimate the fed
eral loss during the five days of hight
ing at 400 dead and 450 wounded.
and the rebel loss at 300 dead and
500 wounded.
Fifteen prisoners captured by the
rebels we're summarily executed.
This action followed similar execu-
tions by the federals. When General
Orozco brought these prisoners before
him he ordered that they be shot In
the plaza of Ojinaga. When news of

an order of reprisal; no quarter will
be given or asked. This was expect,

from Ojinaga and attacked General
Ortega's rebel force as IL vas maneu.
vering to join General Rodriguez
command west of Ojinaga.
The battle between the opposing
forces waged from -four to six miles
from Oiinaga for some hours, with the
federals having a distinct advantage.
After this attack Ortega's main
body drove the federals back toward
Ojinaga. General Orozco, who had
remained at Ojinaga. rushed 500 rein
forcements to his assistance. This
changed the tide. Salazar immediate.
ly changed his retreat and from being
the pursued became the pursuer. For
the first time since the battle of DINA.

became aggressive. The rebels were
driven from nearly every point OF van

Estimates based upon the most con.

losses on both sides during the seven
