At the end of the day the Mayor was
smiling. He said everything had gone
smoothly, and he seemed happy. FER
hans il was because he was not
bothered much by callers. He did not
see all day more than thirty persons
including all his commissioners except
Miss Davis. Of the Department Of Cor
rection. Never had an incoming Mayor
been left so free on his first day.
Perhaps they understand that l

the Mayor with a smile.

ably would not decide on any before

Washington, Jan. $50 far as officials
in the State Department know, the
meeting to-day of President Wilson
and John Lind was arranged merely
for consultation ano 10 afford Mr. Lind
an opportunity personally to report his
views and impressions.
The weight Of opinion in Washington
is that to-day's conference will mark
the development by the President Of
another step in the policy he has laid
down in regard TO the treatment of the
Mexican question. Just what that may
be is a matter of conjecture, with the
possibility that the answer may be af-
forded by the movements Of John Lind
in the next day or two.

The President sent word that he

FEWER FLEE TO
AMERICAN SIDE
U. S. Troops Ready, but Whole
sale Flight from Ojinaga
Not Now Looked For.
1 sy Telegraph to The rriouns J

by Telegraph 10 The tribune
Preside. Texas, Jan. 2.-Recoverins
from their generalization of yesterday,
the Federal forces at Ojinaga to-day
gave the attacking rebels Of Ortega's
army the greatest surprise Of the cam
paign.
Instead of seeking refuge on the
American side. as was threatened last
night, the Federals rallied and, with
enthusiasm which they had not pre-
viously shown. drove back the rebels
in a score of desperate attacks.
Apparently the Fedorals not only
have held their own during the days
fighting. but they have discouraged the
attacking rebels to such an extent that
late to-day the bombardment had ma
terially diminished and the assaults on
Federal positions were less frequent
and lacked the force of the earlier ef-
forts.
With every preparation made TO
withstand the fight of the entire Fed
eral force, American troops here under
Major Michael NJ. McNamee. with au-
thority to permit the Federals who
gave up their arms 10 remain on this
side, had little TO do. Fewer than fifty
frightened Federals waded the muddy
river to the American side, end they
were of the volunteer force Of Pascual
Orczco. None of the Federal regulars
left the fighting line and even the ir-
regulars, who heretofore have been
verging on revolt, with few exceptions
stood their ground, despite the torrent
Of shells from rebel guns which burst
above and around them all day.
Rebels Driven Back.
Out on the plains, with only the
knobby sandhills and the scattering
mesquite bushes to protect them, the
rebels advanced, fell back, rallied and
advanced again, only to be driven back
by the well directed fire Of the Fed
erals. No longer were guns fired
merely to frighten the invaders. The
Federals, directed by their officers.
pointed their guns to-day where the
effect would be felt, and every volley
appeared TO carry destruction TO the
rebel columns.
Scarcely an adobe house in Ojinaga
has escaped the rain Of rebel shells.
Dust from crumblng buildings at
times has obscured the view of battle
watchers, as a shell would burst near
house and leave only pile of dust
and debris, where moment before
Tederals had found refuge and loop
holes through which to shoot.
Replying TO the constant fire OF Or
tega's guns, General Castro, the Fed
eral commander. ordered his gunners to
take their time aim carefully, and fire
only when they felt that the shot would
be effective. The result invariably has
been gap in the advancing rebel line.
n halt. and often a retreat.
Wounded from Ojinaga still are being
brought into Preside, but hundreds OF
wounded are on the Mexican side, with
no means for getting across. The Fed
erals have surgeons, who are doing
good work in the trenches and in OIL
naga. The less seriously wounded are
treated by the surgeons where they fall
and the seriously wounded are taken =
the river bank for greater safety, but
all are not brought across

Art Lea Mond has been elected cap

1915 baseball team Lea Mond is the

it was chiefly due to his efforts that
the team won nine of the twenty-one
games played. Lea Mond will have

Fitzsimmons, the 1914 captain, who
had batting average of 1872 for
twenty-one games, back next season.

were but fifteen boys from which to

or else lost by a narrow margin. The
team had a batting average of .226

HOLD WATCHES ON
COLLEGE OARSMEN
Penn, Washington and Cornell
Crews Indulge in Time
Trials.


POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, June 23.-
Starting on the final leg of training
preparatory to the annual regatta
Friday all of the college crews here
on the Hudson INDUCED in the hard
est kind of workouts yesterday. Three
of the crews rowed against time over
the full course of four miles. Ideal
water conditions prevailed in the aft
ernoon, and Penn and Washington
took to the water. The Penn varsity
sculled along at a merry thirty-six
gait. completing the distance unof
ficially in 20 minutes IA seconds. the
fastest time of the day The Penn
sylvania boat, with its English rig
ging and stroke of the same ma
tionality, SKINNED over the water
very evenly, there being no slacken-
ing at all between strokes.
The time of the Washington eight
was unofficially announced at 90 min
utes 4 seconds for the four mile
route. The Westerners pulled a con-
servative stroke, rowing evenly from
the start to the last mile. when the
stroke was accelerated up to a final
squirt at a thirty eight gait. II is
thought that Coach Conibear is keep
ing the Pacific coast champions under
wraps.
A south wind huffed up the river
before Cornell took to the water, but
the Ithacans covered the four miles
unofficially in 20 minutes Al seconds
Their form was undisturbed by the
swells from a passing ferry boat. and
they finished the last quarter with a
mighty squirt. "Old Man" Courtney
announced the Comedians tins Of
ficially as 20 minutes At seconds.
Coach Rice sent the Columbia
Fights for a five-mile chase down the
river. The stroke was lowered to
twenty-five at times. and even then
the speed of the boat failed II lessen
between swings. The Blue and White
wound up with thirtyzeight stroke
squirt.
Syracuse and Wisconsin contented
themselves by taking spins on the
lower cove. The Wisconsin crews
were fitted out with longer oars ,
and an increase in speed was per-
ceptible.

the guest of Coach Ten Eyck. of

the proceedings. .rWray seemed still
TO feel the sting of the Harvard de-
feat at the hands of Yale.

ARROWHEADS BRING LUCK
TO ROGER SALMON'S CLUB

Baseball players are naturally Su-
perstitious-more so, perhaps, than
even the men who follow the races.
A striking illustration cropped up
last week at Hartford, according to
a story told by Jesse R. Salmon,
father of Roger Salmon, the left
handler, who is pitching for Hart
ford Salmon takes a deep interest
in his sons success and the inability
of the Hartford club to get started
this season was a source of much
worriment tothe senior Salmon
One day recently Jesse, while tax
ing a quiet stroll through a north
Jersey stretch of woods, came across
a half-dozen arrowheads-relics OF
the Indians left so plentifully in some
sections of this State Salmon de-
cided to ship them on to his son as
link -destroyers, and the charm they
worked was wonderful. Hartford
Immediately won five straight games
and one of the pitchers named bald
win, who had not won game, I'M
mediately got started after Roger
presented him with an arrow. Money
could not buy the arrows from the
Hartford players just now.
The Baltimore club will put on
unique double bill same as Rochester
did recently. Toronto will be the
attraction in the first game of
double-header, and then an exhibit
tion with Cincinnati will be Satged.
John Camel denies that he is to
sign with a major league club next
year in the role of manager. GAMER
declares he is too busy trying to win
the pennant to talk of such things.
