WILSON'S THREE SPEECHES MAKE BIG HIT
GETS GREATEST WELCOME IN YEARS

the city last night. Everywhere he
went during his eleven-hour stay
crowds, wild mobs of friends, met
him. He got the biggest ovation
given a man in this city in years.
Thousands followed his auto as it
carried him from the depot to the
Press club, where he made his first
talk. Wherever his car appeared
thousands of voices set up a scream
for Wilson that caused the president
to stand up in the auto and uncover
his head out of gratitude for the re-
ception.
Then at the Auditorium at least
$4,000 crowded Michigan av., yelling
for him. A demonstration against
him by few members of the Wom-
ems party was chased off Michigan
aV and their banners were destroyed.
At the stockyards last night over
10000 tried to get into the hall after
$4,000 had already packed the place.
His talks were well taken.
There is no doubt that president
is trying to bring out as the big issue
of the campaign "a new national
ISM" first set forth in his Omaha adj
dress and later in his Indianapolis
speeches. Yesterday the idea stood
out in his talks in Chicago. At the
Press club he placed emphasis on the
need of uniting the progressive
forces. In his second address he
urged cooperation of capital and
labor to show the world how to place
the cause of labor on a par with that
of the employer and the rights of hui
manity "above the rights of sOVer-
eighty"
Finally in his speech at the Stock
Yards pavilion last night, where he
was greeted by the greatest and most
demonstratiVc crowd that has heard
him at any time since the campaign
opened, the president further en-
larged upon his theme and said that

EARLY WITHDRAWAL OF
sIRLEYs PUNITIVE EXPEDITION
Is indicated at Department Head
quarters in San Antonio.

San Antonio, Tex, May 17.-An
early withdrawal of the punitive expe-
dition led by Col. Frederick W. SibIey,
south of Bouquillas, was indicated at
department headquarters today. The
rescue of Jesse Deemer, the storekeep-
er, and Monroe Payne, the negro cook,
who were carried across the border by
bandits when they raided Glenn
Springs and Bouquillas. twelve DAYS
ago was reported today by Colonel
Sibley, who received his information
from Major George T. Langhorne.
Major Langhorne reported that he was
endeavoring to overtake the bandits
that eluded him at Ell Pino. Officers
here regarded it as probable that a
successful encounter with the bandits
would bring the expedition to an end
and not at all probable &&ae Se,ilure to
lovertake them would also be followed
by recall. 1t was explained that the
four troops of cavalry and the ma
chine gun company operating under
Col. Sibley was inadequate for extend
ed operations.
Deemer and Payne had been left al
Ell Pine by the retreating bandits with
instructions to the residents that they
would be killed if an attempt at res
cue was made.
The villagers refused to obey in
structions, protesting their friendliness
to the Americans when they entered
the town yesterday morning
