German Statement.

Berlin, March 23, by wireless to Sayville.-The text of the official statement given out today at the Ger man headquarters says:
 Western front: The German success near the Forest of Avocourt has been completed by the occupation of the French points of support on the Noun tain ridge southwest of Haucourt. About 450 prisoners were taken.
 "Otherwise the general situation on the western front is unchanged
 Eastern front: The Russians showed their main aggressive activity in the evening and night time. They advanced several times with strong forces against the German positions and bridgehead at JacObStadt on both sides of railway between Mitau and Jacobstadt. and four times against the German lines north of Vidzy.
 "On the front northwest of Post us has reached fourteen officers and SS9 men. The Russians in this district undertook no more important attacks, apparently on account of the over- whelming losses they had suffered. They advanced several times with re- newed force, however, between Mar ocz and Wiszniez lakes.
 "The great sacrifices of men and ammunition brought to the Russians in these attacks, as we'll as in several local enterprises at other places, not even the smallest advantage against the unshaken German de fense''

The investigation bureau of the Chamber of Commerce this afternoon issued a warning to the public against parties who are appearing in the res idential section of the city, selling magazines purpOrted to be for a chll- dren's tuberculosis cause. As far as the bureau can ascertain there is noth- ing to warrant favorable support of the meth eds of the couple.
 The chamber is also in want of ia vorable recommendations in regard to two bands of colored people who are soliciting aid in this city. One of the bands claims to be raising money for church in the south while the other asks for aid for an orphanage Tn the south.

a conference with General Gavira at Juarez. According to the police they have proof that a plot had actually been perfected by Herrera and his as- Ssoeiates to start rioting on a large scale in Fl PasO. Two hundred men were said to have been enlisted as a nucleus, having been won over by promises Of the booty they would gain. According to the police plans of Herrera anticipated that as soon as the rioting started large numbers of Me6icans would join them.
 The precautions adopted by the military and civil authorities were not relaxed today. They were in part the that special steps should be taken at all points along the border to safe guard American lives and property in view of the disaffection of General ! Luis Herrera and other Carranza @hieftains in northern Chihuahua.
 Sonora Awaiting Signal to Revolt
 The belief of Americans who are Familiar with Mexican affairs was that if the reported revoIts in Chi huahua seriously shook the power of he first chief it would not be long be- tore there was trouble in Sonora. This state is the headquarters of the Oregon adherents and has never, ac- cording to information here, been more than 1ukeWarm to the Carranza cause It is the native state of Gen. eral Obregon and it's people are said fe- be devoted to his interests.

eral Gales, the military governor of Sonora, is known to be an out-and- out Obregon supporter and his recent at tackS upon the Cientificos and cleri- calls, combined With his proposal to confiscate all concessions granted by Huerta and Villa, have given ominous force to the persistent rumors that he is not only anti-American but syrnpa- thizes at heart with Villa. It is cer- tain that a number of his most trusted officers were implicated with their Landit chief in some of his notorious exploits.
 Whatever be the outcome the ner- NOus tension along the burder has in creased to such extent that many Americans frankly admit that they would prefer a definite sundering of relations between Washington and the defac'to government to a continuance of the existing situation.
 Villa Reorganizing Army.
 Francisco Villa has established a base to the westward of Namiquipa to reorganize his command and re- cruit men for his army, it was report ed here today. At this new base. it was said, Villa would lay plans to CO., operate with the force of Gen. Luis Herrera,-who is understood to have renounced the de facto governm ent The American army base at Colum Dus has had no news of Villa for more than two days.
 Gen. Herrera, until recently in com- mand of the Carranza garrisons at Chihuahua is said to be moving nOrthWestWard to effect junction with Villa, and this, in connection with the report that the Carranza garrison at Torreon had revolted, has occasioned grave concern among the American army officers in El Paso.
 Villa men, augmented by the com mand of Gen. Herrera, said to num- Der 2,000, might be in a position to harass Gen. Pershing's army and seri- ously interrupt the line of communi- cation between the advanced base of forces at Casas Grandes and the base at Columbus.
 Need Railroads Soon
 An early agreement with the Car ranza government for permission 10 use Mexican railway lines is greatly desired by army officers. The main base would then be transferred from Columbus to Fl Paso and the Mex Ico Northwestern Railway could be used to ship men and supplies to Casas Grandes.
 The railroad could be easily main- 5a1ned against Interruption while the present line southward out of Co., umbus over desert might be readily ,ut should Villa recruit a formidables 'ody Of men. Villa is said to have 'ent agents among the populace III he mountain districts urging them to support him against the Americans Cnd is equipping his men with arms md, ammunition which he had stored
 There is no confirmation of a re. 'ort that Col. Cano of Carranza's i rmy has joined forces with Villa.
 All was quiet in Juarez early today l nd street car service, which was sr1s- 1 ended last night for fear of trouble that Mexican city, was resumed he railroad bridges, however arc till under guard.

That the Chicago girl who journeyed across the country to become the bride of an employe of the Ray Con sOlidated Mining company is the daughter of a Chicago multi -million- aire became known yesterday.
 An account of the wedding of Miss Marie Mills and William McGrath in Thursdays issue of The Republican was the first word of the event re- ceived by the girls relatives in Phoe- nix, who confirmed the rumOr that she is the daughter of Herbert Mills, inventor of the nickel in the slot ma chine, whose home in Oak Park is one of the show places in Chicago.
 That is the home a girl has given ur for q tiny cottage in a mining camp. She has given up a luxurious house, her limousine and her butterfly life to make a man in Hayden real wife" She means to do everything about their little home herself. and she declares she will know her great est happiness in so doing.
 There were objections to her mar riaGe to McGrath-objections that she could not OvercOme-So she boarded d Pullman for the west. This was a novelty, for the American princess had never before travelled in anything save her fathers private car. When she arrived, she did not inform her aunts Mrs. R. F. Mills and Mrs. F.

GAN I \ f II C|vE. LOW RATE
 TO COLON|STS
Important News Handed Out Yesterday By Gen eral Agent of Santa Fe. Will Enable Homeseekcr to Come West Cheaply

General Agent GoldsWorthy of the Santa Fe, received notice from head quarters last night to the effect that one way colonists tickets would be on sale to all Pacific coast points from March 18th to April 14th
 The districts and cities affected by the new rates are Chicago, St. Louis, Memphis New orleans Missouri riv- CT points, St Joe, Mo, Council Bluffs, Omaha and Mississippi river points.
 The fact that a one way ticket can be bought from the above points, at an exceedingly low rate, will un- doubtedly bring quite a number of homeseekers to the valley. It will be of interest to real estate men, who have prospects in the east. They will be able to notify them now that soon low rates will be in effect enabling them to come west and look over new homes at nominal cost.

EXTRA GUARDS WATCH
 C0NF ESCAPED bO0ZE
Court Places Guard Over Quantity of Liquor - Reynolds Guilty of
 Importing It.

There were guards in the courtroom from 10:3O o'clock yesterday morning until o'clock, when the case of the state against l. E. Reynolds, charged with bringing intoxicating liquors into the state, came to an end. IL was not that the court feared violence for the defendant, but the exhibit in the case needed protection against the populace. Two ten gallon kegs, forty-siX quarts and twenty -four pints of whisky was in plain view of the jury throughout the trial. None of it was tested in court, however.
 The jury found Reynolds guilty.
 After hearing the testimony of Sher- if Jeff Adams and Deputies George Brawner and Jim Murphy, the state rested. Sheriff Adams told of arrest ing Reynolds at ASua Caliente and of the mans confession. Reynolds told the officer that he had purchased the liquor in Center City CEl Centro). BraWner and Murphy told the same story.
 George Purdy Bullard represented Reynolds and d great deal of time was occupied in arguing motions. The jury was given an hour and a half recess while AIr. Bullard and County Attor- ney Candy argued points of law. Mr Bullard asked fer dismissal OF three grounds upon which he will base an appeal to lhe supreme court First that this court had no jurisdiction in the matter. and that no offense had been committed under the constitution and that the corpus delicti was not es- abolished by an extra judicial confcs- sion of the defendant himself, but that there must he evidence "aliunde" to prove his guilt.
