WaShlngtOn, sept. S.-An O1llai 1 report to the state department l9ta today said General Villa was diga4- trously defeated at Saltillo yester- day.
 The dispatch said he. had lest a7v- eral troop trains and the greater part of his artillery. and was b ing forced back in disorder to Torreon,
 Cen ral Madero, in command of hc army of General Villa, is said to have been cut off with the rear guard. tie managed however. to get three troop tra ins through to Torreon, and ten others were expected to follow.
 The Carranza forces arel report 10 be in hot pursuit It is expcctd that without artillery, the Vill@ forces will not be able to make stand at Torreon and will be obliged to fall back on Chihuahua. Villas Influence Waning. This disaster to Villa indicates to officials of the. state department that there must be an early resumption Of the meeting of the panAmerican con ferees
 While no date has beem fixed. it is understood the conference will be lnoId InlS week, fpToDdDly al New York. An absolute defeat of General Villa, department officials say woula mean that the presentation of Villa and Zapata in 9 general conference fer peace would amount to very little. The new question for the conference. | therefore, will be whether it shall stand on it's original plan or adopt some other. The situation on the border is now under complete control by General Funston.

The seating capacity of the theatre

S0UTH'S SCHOOLS
EDUCATE OFFICERS
WILL HAVE PART IN TRAINING
MEN TO HANDLE ARMY UNDER
NEW DEFENSE PLAN.

WASHINGTON, Oct. I'll Military
schools of the South, and there are
many good ones in that section, are
expected to play an important part In
the education of the reserve officers
to handle the new United States ar
my under the Wilson plan for nation
al defense. This much has been
gathered by Col o. c. Hulvey, the
talented and popular president Of Co
lumbia Military Academy, during his
stay in Washington for the past few
days as a member of the executive
committee of the association Of mill
tary schools and colleges Of the Unit
ed States. Col. Hulvey has been
making a study of the proposed fea-
lures of the new program of nation
al defense. While here he has visit
ed many government departments
and has acquainted himself with the
details of the government plan, which
have been made public up to this
time. Under those plans, as stated,
the military school will necessarily
become one Of the most important
agencies at the command of the gov
eminent in the speedy furtherance of
its plans for national defense.

"LOANS TOOLARGE
FOR ANY BANK"
o. r. REEVES TESTIFIES IN CON
SPIRACY TRIAL OF c. 3.
MUNDAY.

MORRIS, ILL.,, Oct. 20.-Owen T.
Reeves, president Of the Drovers' Ma
tional Bank, of Chicago, and former
ly national bank examiner, took the
witness stand today in the trial for
alleged conspiracy of c. B. Munday,
vice president of the defunct LaSalle
street Trust & Savings Bank, previ-
ously a national bank.
Reeves stated that on his first ex'
animation of the Munday bank, when
it was a national institution, early in
January, 1912, he found the loans to
the directors far too large for any
bank. Sixty per cent OF the $SOO,OOO
in loans, he said, had been let to
President VIM. Lorrimer and Vice
Presidents Munday and H, W. Huttig
and their concerns. At his second ex-
animation in April he said he found
little improvement.
81 saw Mr. Lorrimer," Reeves testi
fed. II told him the bank was being
used to float kited checks and if any
thing happened someone would be
caught holding the bag. | added that
If they were not careful it would be
this bank. Lorrimer promised to &c
into the bank himself and see what
was being DONE"
The third examination, he testified
was made in July, when conditions
were found to be but slightly improv
ed. Before time for another examin'
alton of the bank, Reeves said, the
change to a state institution had heer
perfected.

In building the new road from Will
Transport to the Hickman county line,

miles, it was necessary to take up
and change no less than sixty-five
poles Of the Cumberland Telephone

Of the new roadway the poles of the
company were encountered. Superin.
tendent of Construction McEwen, of
the company, has been busy with a
force Of hands for some days remov.
ing the poles and is not yet through
with the job Work on this road is
progressing rapidly and every one
who has seen it declares that when
Charles Fraser, who is in charge OF
the construction, gets through, it will
be one Of the best pieces Of road in
the county.
