 According to stori,S told by tho ranch men the band of Mexicans. Who claim to be CalliStas. have been rnnning of cattle and horses for scm, tine A pc tition was sent to Fort Huachuca for detail of soldier, to patrol the border. and in response il is said troop of colored cavalry was sent from Nogalcs to Arivaca under the charge of a young officer who was to investigate the need of further detachmentS ni soldiers in 'hst vicinity The soldiers. it Is said becam lost in the hills soon after leav. ing Nogales and were several days on the way to Arivaca.

 Ranchmen in the vicinity oI Ariyaca 1t Is reported, have been aTming the Americans in their employ and keeping careful guard of their stock with the determination to give the Mexican out laws battle should any further depre dationS be attempted According 10 re ports there are but twenty to thirty Americans in that vicinity and mogy than ibp Mesicans nut Il Is sand that many oi the Mexicans also are deter mined that no outlawry shall be com mit,ed there.
 : The country around the section wher, most of the thefts have occurred is rough and bro ken, and it is easy for a small band oi autiaws ~ho are familiar with the lay of the land to elude q much larger body of troops According ;o the rarchrnen. however. ther, are enough troop s.-Ioned at Nogales to eH.ctuaiiy patrol the bor- der and at the same time protect the international town. and m addition there are enough American citizens in that town to defend themselves m casa ot trouble. Al the other points along the border the Americans are far out numbered by the Mexican population.

THREE CLERKS ARE PROMOTED
Samuel W. Fleming Is Made Chief

Lenig Foreman of Mails
Special to The Telegraph

Washington. d. c.. Aug. 2T.-Post-
master General Burleson to-day an
nounced plans for the reorganization
of the Harrisburg Post Office upon the
two-division plan, effective Septem-
Der l. Divisions or finance and mails
arc created and all the work of the
office is brought within the two di-
visions.
Samuel w. Fleming. assistant post
master, is made chief of the division
OF finance without change in salary.
In the mailing division three clerks
receive advances in salary. as follows:
Z. Fl. Anderson and Harry +. Speas,
from sixth grade clerks at $1,000 q
year to assistant superintendents of
mails at $1,000; J. E. Lenig, clerk of
the sixth grade at $780, promoted

One of the features of the new plar
is that clerks can be called by the

REAPPO|NTMENT TO
HOSPITAL BOARD
Governor Demolishes Democratic
Stories About His Opposition
to Organization
DEMOCRATS in A BAD WAY
Gets Into Big Family Fight and
Throw Dust to Hide Their
Own Dire Distress

Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh to-
day torpedoed the allegations put
forth from Democratic machine
sources that he was at odds with the
Republican organization in Dauphin
county. He reappointed Senator Ed
ward E. Beidleman. of this city. as a
trustee of the Wernersville State Hos
pital for the Insane. in which the SEN
ator has been very actively interested.
The announcement of the appoint
ment caused CONSERVATION in the
Democratic political yarn mill. as 1t
has been the aim of the Democratic
bosses to circulate the story that the
Governor was at odds with the Re-
publican organization, the reason for
this Democratic activity being to hide
the continual ruction in the Dauphln
county Democratic camp. The Demo-
Gratis just now are endeavoring to con-
ceal the fact that there is faction
trying to eliminate Robert Sucker,
a Democrat, from the district attorney
campaign by giving the nomination to
a man of another party in the hope
of creating a new fusion bund.
Suckers friends are angry at the at
tempt to go outside of the party to get
a candidate and are threatening all
kinds of warfare. 1t was even inti-
mated to-day that some of the Demo-
Gratis in the city and county would
buck on Lebo as the fusion candidate

Belgians in cake" Race
Escaped Into Holland

x Amsterdam, Holland Aug. 27.-How
@12 Belgians escaped into Holland
through a cleverly faxed bicycle race
is told in dispatches from the frontier.
A number of Liege sportsmen called
on the German commandant of that
district a fortnight ago and asked per-
mission to organize a bicycle race for
the benefit of the local war victims.
The race was to be from Liege to
Mouiand. on the Dutch frontier.
The commandant fell in with the
plan. only stipulating that each con-
testant must wear an arm badge with
the German colors and affix a small
German flag to his bicycle. After
some demur the promoters of the race
consented to the conditions. The COM
mandant supplied the badges and flags
himself and agreed to send a military
band to the starting place.
The race took place some days
later with 112 contestants. The entire
countryside turned out to watch the
event and the German sentries all
along the road saluted the racers as
they pedaled by. But the cyclists did
not stop when the reached Mouland.
They continued straight on across the
Dutch frontier and failed to return.

SAYS VON BERNSTORFF
Ambassador Explains Germany
Will Make More Than Mere
Disavowal of Act
BERLIN REPORTED FALTERING
Crisis Between Two Countries Has
Passed Into Realm of
Diplomacy
BY Associated Press

Washington, Aug. 27.-Count Won
Bernstorff, the German Ambassador,
acting on instructions from Berlin,
hotlhed Secretary Lansing today that
full satisfaction would be given to
the United States for the sinking of
the White Star liner Arabic The
Ambassador explained that Germany
would make more than a mere dis
avowal, if it is found the Arabic was
sunk without warning
Count Won Bernstorff called at the
state Department early and conferred
with Secretary Lansing nearly half
an hour. 1t had been suggested that
perhaps Germany was ready also to
make reparation for the Americans
iost on the Lusitania, but that sub
Ject dld not come up at today's con-
ference. The disposition of the Ger
man Em' lssy is to take up one step
at time.
The Ambassador did not make pub
llc the extent of the instructions from
Berlin on which he acted, but it was
understood they conceded entirely
with the statement of the German
chancellor in Associated Press dis
patches from Berlin yesterday, ex-
pressing the Willingness of the Ger
man government to make fullest rep
aration if it is shown finally that the
Arabic was torpedoed without warn
ing. So far the German Admiralty
has received no report from it's sub
marines which We're operating in the
Arabic's vicinity. Further communi.
cations now are expected from Berlin
/ TO the German Ambassador and to the
State Department from Ambassador
Gerard, which will advance the ne.
gotiations to a point where attacks
on passenger carrying ships will be
definitely discontinued at least while
the subject is under further discus
sion. The crisis between the two
countries now is regarded as havinl
passed into the realm OF diplomacy
