Brownsville, Tex, Oct. 19.-One of
the most daring and bloodiest train
robberies of the southwest was staged
last night at Omito, seven miles north
of here, when twenty Mexcans claim.
ing to be followers of Luis de la Rosa,
the bandit leader, held up a south
bound Saint Louis, Brownsville G. Mex.
leo train, and as a result two persons
are dead, four are wouned, and one
is dying.
The train was moving at fast rate
to make up lost time. The bandits
effected the trains stopping by Ioos-
ening one Of the rails and Jerking it
aside with heavy wire from the COW
er of the brush as the train reached
that point The engine, baggage, mail
and express cars jumped the track
The robbery was conducted by five
or six Mexicans, clad in khaki uni
forms. Outside some fifteen Mexicans
kept up constant firing, apparently ov-
er the cars.
The alarm was given by discharged
United States soldier, who ran three
miles to give the alarm.
Being but three miles from the Rio
Grande, the robbers were afforded
easy escape.
Three +roone of ca,,Iry o.d .,.,o l..
fantry companies rushed in pursuit.
One United States soldier was killed
and his shoes removed by the bandits.
Not great deal of money was ta-
ken, though one main claimed the loss
Of $3.50, after conceaIing ninety dol
lars under his seat. When the Mexi-
cans entered the train, they started
firing at three soldiers in the front por-
tion of the smoking car. One of them
was killed. The engineer was killed
under his engine, and the other two
soldiers were among the wounded.
Other persons escaped injury by hiding
under the seats and in compartments.
The bandits were nervous on enter
ing the train, but seeing how badly
frightened the passengers were, they
became encouraged and shouted "Viva
Carranza, Viva Pizana."- Pizana is CO.
leader of the bandits with de la Rosa.
1t was said that some Of the BAN
dts were barefooted. These are be-
lieVed to be Hpisachito Indians, who
are serving in General Lopez Mata-
moros Garrison. One Of the wounded
men claimed that he saw Luis de la
Rosa among the bandits.

NO REPORT ON CLERKS OFFICE
Extra Help Allowed for the Supreme
Court Clerk May Continue.

Oklahoma city, Oct. 1S.-No re
port of the committee appointed by
the state examiner and inspector to
investigate the methods employed in
the Office of the clerk of the supreme
court has been made as yet, although
the investigation has been completed.
In the meantime, the extra clerk EN-
ployed for one month is still at work
and there is a probability that the
employment will be permitted to con
tinue. The clerks office is very
busy now that the courts are all at
work and many submissions are being
made in several branches.

strategic positions in the north. the
fact that the allies are bringing
heavy forces against the Bulgarians
and so placing them that the Bul-
garians will be compelled to divide
their armies, gives hope here that the
Germans may be baked in their
latest attempt to reach the sea and
bring assistance to the Turks.
All along the line the Serbians
and their Montenegrin neghbors, who
also are being attacked, are Offering
very stubborn resistance to both Aus
tro-Germans and Bulgarians, and
while they have given up a number
of towns and positions, they have not
yet reached the line on which they
expect to make their last stand.
The Bulgarians so far as can be
learned have made progress only in
the ZlotokOpaka valley, near the
river Rorava, north of the town of
Vranya, where they blew up a bridge
There is no confirmation, however
of the report that they cut the rail
way in this district, the bridge which
they destroyed being a small wooden
one near the railway. The Bulgarian
force which penetrated is not a large
one.
On the other hand, it is pointed out,
the capture of Strumntza is of real
strategic value, as its occupation per
mits the defense of the southern end
of the railway and compels the Bull
garians to keep a force there. Enos,
too, is of value, as, although not
good landing place, its occupation
threatens Dedeaghatch, which has a
great harbor and fortified and mined.
The civilian population has already
left Dedeaghatch, which is entirely
in the hands of the military, under
German officers.
The Italians, according to the la
test reports, will not send a contin-
gent to the Balkans, but the CO.
operation OF their navy in the Aegean.
where an allied fleet has already gath
cred. is looked for.
The point at which the Russians
will strike has not been disclosed.
The expectation is, however, that the
allies have surprise for the central
powers, and that steps are being
taken to bring Turkey to her knees
before assistance can reach her.

Small Sized Stampede When Massive

The Love two-story building on
East Main street which was seriously
damaged in the explosion, created
some excitement in that portion of

breaking and falling. The front wall,
shadowing the street, still stands as
a sentinel overlooking ruins in every
direction but threatens TO fall at
any moment.
