Attorney Declares Defendant Had
Nothing to Do With the Loaning

Chicago, March 20-William Lori

failure of the La Sale Street Trust
and Savings Bank had, according to
the opening statement Of the defense
made today by Attorney Albert Kink,
absolutely nothing to do with the
loaning of the banks money" between
April, 1910, and July, 1912. At that
time, Mr. Fink said, Mr.. Lorimer was
too busy with his fight to retain his
seat in the senate, to take part in the
management of the bank, other than
to preside at its directors meeting.
Mr.. Fink brought out other points
on which the defense will be based.

Mr.. Lorimer received deposits after
the bank was insolvent and the de-

OnArmyBill

Washington, March 2O.-The house
today resumed consideration Of the
Hay army reorganization bill under a
standing rule which allows each men,
Der five minutes debate after general
debate has closed. Its passage by
Thursday at the latest is virtually
assured.
Representative Kahn's amendment
to the house army bill to make the
peace strength Of the army at 100000
men instead of 100000 was taken up
for two hours debate today when the
house resumed work on the measure.
AS the amendment would bring the
house bill up to the proposals of the
senate bill, vote was regarded as a
test on the disposition Of the house to
agree with the larger proposals Of the
senate.
The two hours debate was divided
equally between those who favor and
those who oppose the increase. Party
lines were broken down in the debate
Representative Caldwell, democrat Of
New York, supported the increase.
THE passage Of the bill, without the
amendment, would be ridiculous, II
not pathetic" he said. To-day in
Mexico we witness a skeleton army
fighting with an army Of skeletons"
Representative Towner, republican
Of Iowa, opposed the proposal, and
Representative Greene. republican OF
Vermont, supported it. Representa-
tive Anthony, republican Of Kansas,
and Representative Dyer, republican
Of Missouri, opposed the amendment.

Ell Paso, Texas, March 20.-The
railroad problem overshadowed every
thing else here in the Mexican situa-
ton today. The reply of General Car
rama to the request Of the United
States government for permission to
use the railroads, was expected to be
sent forward to Washington today. A
refusal will embarrass the operations
of the American troops while the
granting of the request will probably
be seriously construed by consider
able section of the Mexican people.
The unexpectedly rapid advance of
the expeditionary columns under Cen
question to an issue. Americans IA
miliar with the country into which the
columns are now entering assert that
the use of the railroads for bringing
up supplies is absolutely necessary.
Speedy Transportation Needed.
DR.. l. j. Bush, formerly chief sur
geon of Madero's army, asserted today
that the speedy transportation facili-
ties were essential to further progress
by the American soldiers. THE terri
tory in which Villa probably will re-
MAN, said DR.. Bush, lis embraced in
an imaginary line between Chihuahua
and Minaca, with the Mexican Central
railroad on one side and the Sierra
Madre on the other. His soldiers
have the advantage over the Ameri-
cans in that they will travel light with
only few days provisions"
Demands ReOpening of Mines.
Another serious situation has been
| caused by the action Of General Callas,
military governor Of Sonora, in de-
manding that the La Colorado Mining
company of New York reopen their
mine at Hermosillo at once. General
| Gales has wired the New York offices
of the company that if the mine is not
reopened Immediately he will take it
over and run it.
| The property Is said to be a very
rich gold mine and formerly employ
ed 1000 Mexicans, according to Gen
eral Gales. He declared today that he
had no intention of confiscating the
mine but that the Mexicans were suf-
fering through being thrown out of
employment and that he intended to
put them back to work. The governor
said that the La Colorado company
was the only one that had suspended
operations in Sonora and that there
was not reason for their action as he
could and would give them ample pro-
lection.
Mountain Roads Perilous.
| A shallow river and a winding
wagon road, cutting like the two
blades of a pair of scissors through
the heart Of the Sierra Madre Oriental
mountains, today are the connecting
link between Franciso Villas retreat
ing command and the pursuing COL
umns of Brigadier General John ].
