$4,000 Theft Still Battles.

was arrested with H. R. Harris,
charged with obtaining $4,000 from
the suit case of A. H. Wood, ST Louis,
mining engineer, while on the steam,
ship City of Mexico, from Vera, Cruz,
is now said to be the son of wealthy
Texas ranch owner, and over this an
interesting point has arisen.
To the detectives Dychas said he
had got the money which was found
in his pockets from his parents,
wealthy ranch owners, in San Angelo,
Texas. This statement is refuted by
letter found in his pocket, in which
the American consul at Tampico, Mex
leo, stated he had given the man
transportation to New Orleans, and
suggested that he be assisted by the
Red Cross Society to reach his home
at San Angelo.
Dychas admits he was released Dec.
8 from Monterey, where, after sery-
ing three years in Jail, he was freed of
an eight-year sentence for burglary.

Financial Firm Withdraws From Thir.

Others to Follow.

New York.-The withdrawal Friday
of J. P. Morgan & Co. from more than
a score of great corporations and the
| statement shortly afterWard by Geo.
| +. Baker, an almost equally dominant
| figure in American finance, that he
soon would take similar action, gave
Wall street generally a thrill that al
most brought trading on the Stock
Exchange to halt.
While ii probably is true that many
prominent bankers had information
foreshadowing this momentous action
toward ending interlocking director
ates, the public and brokers had no
advance knowledge of what was TAX
ing place in the inner councils of the
greatest Of all American houses Of
finance
"The necessity of attending many
board meetings has been so serious a
burden upon our time that we have
long wished to withdraw from the di-
reCtorates of many corporations. Most
of these directorships we have accept
ed with reluctance, and only because
we felt constrained to keep in touch
with properties which we had reor
ganized or whose securities we had
recommended to the public here and
abroad.
"An apparent change in public sen
tf1nent in regard to directorships
seems now to warrant us ia seeking to
resign from some Of these connections.
Indeed it may be, in view of the
change in sentiment upon the subject,
that We shall be in /. better position to
serve such properties and their secur-
ity holders if We are not directors.
We have already resigned from the
companies mentioned and we expect
from time to time to withdraw from

OF these refugees were camp follow

also came to the river. Major Nc

The arrival Of the camp followers,
who usually remain with the soldiers

MISUNDERSTANDING that Ameri-

of the full measure of it's resources
has been submitted to the house COM
mittee on rivers and harbors in adVo-
cacy of the pending bill for an imme-

the first installment of the $4S,OO00O0
proposed by the Mississippi river COM
mission for preventing floods.
The warning, voiced by B. F. Bush,
president of the Missouri Pacific rail-
road, sets forth that the principal Eu-
ropean countries are spending millions
of dollars in fostering cotton culture
in their colonies, and that the Eng.
fish premier recently had bill pass

perimenting in growing cotton in the
Soudan to make the English spinner
independent of the United States sup

Mr.. Bush asserted, however, that the
United States, eff alive to its oppor-
tunities,' had nothing to fear, and
that the nation should hasten to the
rescue of the South by meeting the
control of the Mississippi as a nation.

Mississippi delta would add $4,000, 900
acres of fertile, wealth-producing area,
cultivation of which in cotton, sugar
cane or diversified crops would yield
many millions of dollars annually.

FIGHTING MEXICANS REST
REBEL AND FEDERAL ARMIES
AT OJiNAGA SUDDENLY
CEASE FIGHTING.
BURN DEAD ON BATTLEFIELD
Reinforcements for Both Armies On
Fast March to battle-ground
to Aid in the Bloody
Struggle.

Maria. Tex.-Fighting between the
! Northern Division of the Mexican fed
eral army defending Ojinaga, Mexico
opposite Maria, and General Ortega's
5000 insurgents Monday ceased as
suddenly as it began q week ago
| Without any federal activities to pro-
yoke his move, General Ortega with
drew his army seven miles to the
west along the Rio Grande, supposed
ly to await the arrival of reinforce,
ments from Chihuahua.
Information had reached the consti
| tutionalists that large body Of fed,
erals on the way from Jimenez were
within four days march of Ojinaga
and were planning to steal on Or
tega's rear and rescue the federal gar
TiSOn.
Although both armies after six days
of fighting had been Resting since day
light, General Ortega suddenly divided
his army into three formations and
moy&a along the border away from
Ojinaga. His departure was regarded
by the federal garrison as indicating
that both armies will delay further
fighting until each has been strength
ened.
General Francisco Castro, comman-
der Of the federal regulars, expressed
confidence that if he is joined by Gen
eral ATGumedo, who is reported by the
City OF Mexico to have been ordered
north, he VAL be able to take the ag-
gressiye and seriously handicap Gen
eral Villas projected campaign south
ward.
As soon as the insurgent forces
were out of sight the federals wander
ed over the battlefield to pick up the
wounded The dead were burned and
after dark the glow of the fires show
ed where losses had been heaviest.
General Cruz Rosa and two consti-
nationalist captains taken prisoners
with an automobile load on ammuni-
ton from chihuahua, were executed in
the plaza at noon. The federals have
several hundred prisoners captured in
various skirmishes.
The ending of hostilities caused
great relief to the United States Dor
der patrol under Major McNamee and
Red Cross officials, who have borne
the burden of caring for sick and
wounded from both armies.
Some of the rebel reinforcements
General Villa recently was reported
to have dispatched from chihuahua
were intercepted by the federals, it
was learned Monday. 1t was in this
action that Colonel Roza and the two
bel'captains, executed Monday, were
captured with two automobiles loaded
with ammunition.
The quantity of ammunition taken
led to the belief that the withdrawal
of General Ortega was due to fear of
running out of ammunition.
