INDEPENDENT STATE
SET UP BY YUCATAN
Mexican Province May Ask the
United States to Recognize
It's Sovereignty.

New York, March 16.-An eye wit
ness story Of the destruction Of the
Mexican gunboat Progreso in the har-
Dor of Progreso, Mexico. February 2S,
was brought to New York today by
Captain w. J. Ryan and nine members
of the crew of the Ward line tug Aux
illiar, which had been doing lighterage
work in Mexican ports for several
years. According to Captain Ryan the
Progreso was blown up by what her
officers supposed was a barrel of but
ter, just brought aboard. She sank
500 after the explosion.
Captain Ryan said the commander of
the Progreso had been warned that
feeling in Yucatan was high against
the Carranza government, which he
represented. When the Progreso en-
tered the harbor, Captain Ryan said,
she was ordered by the Yucatan troops
to leave. Instead her captain asked
permission to take on supplies. This
was given with the result that the gun
| boat was blown up by an Internal ma
chine hidden in the supplies.
The report that Yucatan had asserted
| it's independence of all present govern
ments in Mexico was confirmed by
Captain Ryan. He said that YucataT
had now 10000 men under arms tc
maintain her independence. Some OF
the alleged plans of the Yucatan gov
eminent, he said, were unfolded to him
by a party Of 40, including severe in
fluential residents of Yucatan, trans
ported March 2 from Progreso to Ha-
! vana by the Auxilliar.
81 was told by some of the party
Captain Ryan said, that a movement
was afoot in Yucatan to request The
United States to recognize Yucatan':
independence. Another plan was tt
establish a protectorate over Yucatan
somewhat similar to hat exercised
over Porto Rico, if this could be dom
without depriving the state of it's SOW
ereignty."

Petrograd, March 16. (via London).-
Austrian forces, supported by e +
German contingent, again are making
a determined effort to relieve the
Przemysl fort in Galicia, besieged by
the Russians since the early months OF
the war.
Having failed in their movement IN
east Galicia, near Stanislau, when they
hoped to strike northwest in the direc-
ton of Przemysl n having trans
ferred the center of their operations
further to the west, they are now at
tempting to take a direct route from
Ujok Pass to the north. In the vicin-
ity of Stuben, almost half way between
Ujok and Przemysl. the Austrians en-
coLntered serious Russian resistance
and the success of their movement de-
ponds upon the outcome Of their con
centrated efforts to break through the
Russian lines at this point.
The simultaneous closing in of the
Russian besieging forces upon Przemysl
and the occupation of Malkovitza, with
in three miles OF the fortress, make
the situation at PrZemysl more inter
| esting than any other just now in Ga
licia. Recent operations, in which Rus.
sian forces in occupying hostile posi-
tons ave taken a large numbe OF
men and guns, reveal that PrZemysi
is much stronger in artillery and In
fantry than had been believed. 1t Is
evident that the fortress has kept In
constant communication with Austrian
points outside by means of wireless
biography and the flights of aero
planes.

expressed confidence In their own Sc
curity in GaIicia. In view of the re-
ported success of their troops In check.
ing Austrian attacks at important
places on the Carpathian front, they
are confident that the present advance
toward Przemysl will result in failure

He has found a veritable gold mine in
his t~housand-acre Alfalfa field, and what is
of particular interest to you and me is
that his first Alfalfa Seed, twenty-five
years ago or more, was purchased from the
John A. Salzer Seed Co., La Crosse, Wis.
The Colonel says: ,"The best paying crop
in hay, or grass, or pasture food is Alfalfa.
1t outranks everything in money value"
Salzer's Alfalfa is good on your own

per acre, and with the aid of "Nitragen"
(see my catalog) its growth is absolutely
