Gov. Stuart Thinks II Would Aid
In Beating Beet Trust.
FAvORs BoRLkND INQUIRY
Suggests the Establishment OF Gov.
srnment-owned Slaushter.Houses
and Markets As MeAn5 OF
Correcting the Troubles.

Washington. D. C.-Governor Stuart
OF Virginia, who raises cattle when not
engaged with executive duties. told a
House subcommittee that stock rails
ers had lost money in the last year
largely because Of lack Of competition
among beef packers. He testified in
favor Of the Borland resolution to in
yestigate the packing industry to de-
termine II the antitrust laws are being
violated.
In the 30 years that ! have been
raising cattle | never have had more
than one bid on a single bunch of
stock" said the Governor. When that
condition obtains year after year there
Is only one conclusion to reach about
what the packers are doing If pro-
ducers in my country had surrendered
fourffths Of their cattle land they
would be better or"
The Governor has cattle on 10000
acres of land. He insisted the resolu-
ton was not comprehensive enough
IN It's scope
Representatives Of Swift & Co. who
have handled some Of the Governors
cattle differed with him over the prob
able profit the company derived. The
Governor estimated their profit on
1.3OO-pound steer was about s25.SS,
while the packing company represen-
tatives figured about $165. The yarl.
Rnce In figures, the Governor insisted,
was one good argument for a thorough
inquiry.
Chairman Carlin sought to inject
the interests Of the consumer into the
inquiry only to find that the cattle
under discussion were Of much high
er grade than the average man eats.
"The consumer Is interested chiefly
in old COWS, stays and bulls, should
say" the Governor remarked. "This
meat IS slaughtered by rabbis for the
Jews"
Does that mean" Representative
Carlin asked, that the Jews Of this
country get the best cattle"
Eyes, that's about IT," said r. c. Nc
Manus, an attorney for the packers.
Ten per cent. OF the beef sold by
Swift G Co.. be said, was killed BY
rabbis.
The Governor suggested that the es-
tablishment OF goyernment-owned
slaughter.houses and markets where
the producer and consumer could meet
would go a long way toward solving
the troubles OF both.

MEXICANS ATTACK
j. s. TROOPS.
American Cavalry Had Gone
Into Parral.
ONE KILLED, ONE WOUNDED
No Objection Made To Them Coming
Until They Began To Search for
the Bandit chlef-Flrst Made
Targets BY Shippers,

FL Paso, Te1as.-American cavalry,
led by Major Frank Tompkins and con-
sisting Of $50 men of the Thirteenth
Cavalry, believing villa was being har.
bored in Parral, entered that mining
town to search for him. In clash
with citizens Of the town, all Villa
sympathizers. more than 80 Mexicans
were killed. The Americans lost one
man killed and one wounded.
Major Tompkins, whose command Is
reported to have entered Parral, is the
American commander, who at the head
Of small body Of American cavalry,
chased villa and his whole band across
the border at Columbus and for num-
Der Of miles into Mexico, following
Villas attack on the American town.
American scouts going in advance
Of the cavalry column had found evil
dence that Villa but short time be-
fore had been in the vicinity Of Parral.
The scouts had been told by Mexicans
that villa was in Parral and was being
hidden there by the people with the
knowledge OF the small Carranza gar
rison.
Villa Search Started Trouble.
The Americans entered Parral with.
out evidences being shown by the peo-
pie Of the town or by the Carranza sol
diers there that their presence was
resented, the advices say, and It was
not until Americans began searching
for evidence Of Villa that the excitable
townspeople began to show animosity.
Later as the Americans were leav-
ing Parral In response to the request
to do so made by the town officials,
Mexican snipers from windows and
housetops began firing upon them. The
serious clash came later when a con.
siderable body OF armed citizens, fol.
lowing the Americans, opened FIRE. The
fire was quickly returned and the
Mexicans fed, leaving many dead and
wounded in the streets.
Parral people, Mexican and Ameri-
cans, have learned through private
sources that it was only when the
townspeople thought the Americans
we're leaving that any general disturb
ance occurred. Mexlcans say their in.
formation is that the people of Parral
thought they were going to occupy the
town as a base.
Villa unquestionably was in Parral
shortly before the American troops ar.
rived there. Whether he still is there
IN hiding or has left for the south, as
Parral people say, has not definitely
been determined.
There Is nothing in private advices
to indicate that the Carranza soldiers
in Parral took part in the attack on
the Americans, One report says there
were two separate clashes before the
Americans finally left Parral and that
in the second encounter with the
populace the Carranza commander
sent his troops to disperse the crowd.
which rapidly was being moved down
by American bullets.

Gives eermany's Side.

Berlin.-Germany's reply to the in
quiries of the American Government
regarding the steamers Sussex, Man
chester Engineer, Englishman, Ber-
windvale and Eagle Point, signed by
Gottlieb Won Jagow, the German Minis
ter Of Foreign Affairs, has been for
warded to Washington by Ambassador
Gerard.
The note denies that the Sussex was
attacked by German submarine. The
Investigation covering the Sussex case,
says the note, was extended to all ac-
tions undertaken on March 24--the
day Of the Sussex incident-in the
channel between Folkestone and
Dieppe. One steamer was sunk, the
commander Of the German submarine
reaching the definite conclusion that
II was war vessel A sketch Of this
vessel. together with Photographic re-
productions of picture Of the steamer
Sussex printed in the London Daily
Graphic. were inclosed with the note,
the difference In the two craft being
indicated.
The steamers Englishman and Eagle
Point were sunk by German sub
marines after they had attempted to
escape and time was allowed for the
withdrawal Of those aboard.
The steamer Berwindvale was pos
sibly sunk by German submarine,
while definite details with respect to
the Manchester Engineer are lacking,
and therefore there has been no sum.
cient basis for investigation OF this
particular case.

ly completed and Is expected to go for.
ward in q very short time.
Meantime the pursuit OF villa by
the American troops win continue.
Secretary Baker sharply outlined this
in a formal statement
"The status OF the expedition into
Mexico is as It was at the beginning,
IN cordial cooperation with the de
facto government OF Mexico" he said.
That cooperation continues and the
expedition continues. There has been
no change IN the orders and none Is IN
contemplation"
Secretary Baker and other officials
laid stress on the fact that co-opera-
ton OF the Carranza troops was re-
garded as an important element. and
the negotiations for an agreement with
the de faeto Government will be con-
Quoted with the idea that such an
agreement would strengthen Carranza
at home, and at the same time make
the task Of catching villa easier
The lines OF communication OF

fcult. and It is realized here that q
