We Hope Make An Example of Some Individuals No Less Striking Than the Gases in Indiana He Says in Formal Statement-His Headquarters Claim Victory by 69 Votes While Bankhead Says He Has
 Won by Majority of 153


 Jasper; Aiax 10 Especial 1.-The congres, sional race in the Tenth district con tinues to be in doubt. Since both cam paign headquarters claim the victory. the official count will be necessary to de termine it.
 At Bankhead headquarters it is claimed that Bankhead has carried the following counties. Walker, Marion. Lamar. Win ston and Franklin with total majority of 15S
 At Hobson headquarters it is claimed that Hobson has carried Walker, Pick ems, Marion and Fayette, with a total majority of 69,
 Captain Hobson gave out the following statement for publication:
 Returns to our headquarters are not yet quite complete bu they indi- cate that the majority on either side will be very smaiL
 If the official count should place this majority on my opponents side, we expect to contest the election.
 Reports of irregularities are so

WANTS IT IN WRITING

At yesterdays conference General Scott requested General Obregon to put in writ ing his views of the action that has been taken in the present dilemma. Last night until a late hour the Mexican conferee was in telegraphic communication with the first chief. This interchange was re- sumed this morning and continues throughout the day. It is believed that the result of the wire conversation will be the written proposals requested by General Scott.
 While the situation is still regarded as serious here. one circumstance points to an easing of the tension. Although Gen eral Funston is urgently needed at Fort

OUT OF PROPORTION

The report, which could not be con firmed, had it that the Mexicans believe the size of General Pershng's army is out of all proportions to it's mission-the extermination of a few hundred bandits and that a much smaller force would an swer the purpose. A partial withdrawal, it is argued, would have a good political influence in Mexico.
 If this plan were rejected, it was indicated tonight, the Mexicans were likely to decide further attempts to alter the position of the United States were useless. and it was believed they would then agree to the proposals of the American government. In an authoritative quarter tonight the belief was expressed that tomor . rows meeting would be the last of the conferences and tttat General tyb regon would indorse the tentative agreement with perhaps 8 few minor , changes.
 Asked whether tomorrow's meeting would be final. General Obregon said:
 T do not know; there might be other meetings"

 Generals Scott and Funston are unal- terably opposed to any agreement which sets date for American withdrawal from Mexico. However, the American con ferees are listening to all proposals the Mexican minister of war may make while waiting for him to realize that the in tentions of the American government in Mexico are immovable.
 In the meantime General Obregon's pro- posal for a joint troop patrol of the bor- der is not given serious consideration, although it was reported to Washington.
 The American conferees 1t said, doubt if the de facto government can muster sufficient forces to form patrol of the sort outlined and at the same time carry on it's campaign against the zapata and Villa forces.

 El Paso, Tex, May 1O.-Negotiations over American troop dispositions in Mex ico made no progress today. General Ob- regon awaited word from General Car ranza as to the course he is now to pur- sue and when instructions did not come a conference which had been proposed for this morning was postponed until to- morrow.
 Failing in their efforts to have detimle date of withdrawal set it was reported tonight that the Mexican government may next try to have part of the American troops taken out at once, leaving the re- mainder to cooperate with the forces of the de facto government in the pursuit of Villa groups.
