GREAT CROWDS GREET
Mr.. HUGHES IN WEST
Republican Candidate Is Making
Whirlwind Dash Into Pub
Lie Favor.
BY N. o. MESSENGER,

CHICAGO, September 22.-Candidate
Hughes is making a whirlwind dash
into public favor in these central
states They like the man and they like
his talk, judging from the demonstra-
tions of approval that greet him
wherever he appears. Tremendous
crowds have pressed around him in
Indiana and Wisconsin, and have roar
ed approval of his attacks on the eight
hour wage law where the labor vote is
strongest He has made his boldest
assault upon the legislation of Con-
gress and has got laundering re-
sponses.
The reception given him in Indiana
was of a character to revive the droop-
ing spirits of the republicans and to
warrant them in lifting up their heads
and expecting possibly to have a look
in at the polls.
Mr.. Hughes is making a much more
vigorous campaign than he did on his
transcontfnental trip, and Is satisfying
the demand for punch in his speeches.
He is 100 per cent campalgner now.
He seemed to strike his gait up in
Maine, and has been going strong ever
since The entire republican campaign
is braced up in the middle west, and the
managers are working like nailers,
They were a long time getting up
steam in this section. but they are un-
der way now. What they want most
is to save Indiana If possible so as to
have the map all one color from the
AHeghenies to the Mississippi From
now on Indiana will be contested for
by both parties, down to the humblest
individual voter, and nobody will be
overlooked.

CHIHUAHUA CITY, Mexico, Septem-

Gen Bell obtained such bad informa-
ton" said Gen. Trevino, the Carranza
commander here, in discussing today
Brig. Cen Bells report of the Villa
raid on Chihuahua last Saturday. "The
Villistas carried absolutely nothing
away with them except some of the
prisoners from the penftentiary. many
of whom have since returned here.
They captured neither ammunition,
cannon nor anything else.
Our artillery drove the Villistas out
of the place which they had taken, and
pursued them in their hasty retreat
with shell, leaving them time to
carry anything away as they left. gal
Looping in small groups through the
narrow streets of the town"
He also asserted that every unit of
his force was co-ordinated: that all
prisoners examined by him agreed that
Villas band did not number more than
600; that there were no defections from
the garrison, and that all of the auto
mobiles in the city are accounted for,
one being carried away by the out
laws. Government artillery fire ceased
only, he said, when the bandits had
been repulsed and there seemed danger
of hitting the pursuing forces under
Gems. Ramos and Merriero.

Silent as to Effect.

He declined to discuss in any way
what effect the temperance of Villa,
if it were confirmed, might have on the
movements of American troops in
Mexico.
So far as is known the War Depart
ment has made no effort to learn from
Gen. Bell the sources Of his informa-
ton. Gen. Funston is expected to trans
nit promptly without additional IN
structionS any authentic news of the
activities of the bandits upon which
any change in plan involving Cen
Pershing's expedition might be founded.
Details of the fighting at Chihuahua
City last Saturday, when villa celebrated
the Mexican Independence day by a sue
cessful assault on the Carranza garrison,
are contained in a report to the War De-
partment by Brig. Gen. George Bell,
Commanding the Ell Paso military dis
trict 1t asserts that Villa personally led
the attacking forces: that he took and
held numerous important buildings in the
city for several hours: that he was joined
by a thousand or more men of the Car
rama garrison, and retired, promising to
return soon and taking with him large
quantity of captured arms and ammunl-
ton and artillery.
No official would predict what effect
the incident may have on the negotia-
tions at New London, which embraced
Gen. CarranZa's request that American
troops be withdrawn from Mexico. 1t
was deemed certain, however, that no
agreement could be reached by the COM
missioners until it was known precisely
to what extent the situation in northern
Mexico had been altered by the Chi
huahua City developments and until it
was made clear what the CarranZa gov
ernment would do to cope with the new
situation.
Many army officers still believe that
Villa is either dead or his powers so
thoroughly broken that he could not hope
to re-esta blish himself.

Chamber of Commerce Will
Address Letters to Senators
and Representatives.
TO ASK THEIR OPINION
OF D. C.'S ADVANTAGES
Strong Brief May Be Drawn Up at
Future Date Presenting Districts
Claims to $11, 900, 900 Factory.

Inquiries as to what advan-
tages they believe Washington
has over other cities, which
should be taken into considera~
ton in urging the establishment
of the government -nmor plant in
the National Capital, are to be
made of number of senator's and
representatives by the Chamber
of Commerce. This is one OF the
first steps which is to be taken
by the committee appointed by
President P. T. Moran to work
to have the great government fac
tory established within the boun-
daries of the District of Columbia.
Secretary Tom Grant today framed
letter along this line to be sent to
Senator Tillman of South Carolina,
chairman of the committee on naval
affairs of the Senate. Secretary Grant
also today sent to President Wilson,
the Secretary of the Navy, the Secre-
tary of War and members of the House
and Senate naval and military affairs
committees copies of the resolutions
adopted at the meeting of the board OF
directors of the Chamber of Commerce
Yesterday These resolutions urge the
location of the armor plant here.
President Moran, who is chairman of
tbe committee named to work to bring
the plant to Washington. probably will
call a meeting of this committee in the
near future. In the meantime all mem
hers are working along all possible
lines and are expected to have many
IDEAS to place before the committee
when that body meets.
I Brief to Present Claims.
It is quite likely that strong brief
nresenting the Districts claims to the
nlant will be drawn up at future date.
1t was pointed out today that one OF
the Districts strongest claims for hav-
ing the armor plant located here is that
II would thereby be directly under the
ewes" of the officials of the Navy De-
nartment and members of Congress, as
well as other officials of the govern
ment.
Enthusiasts for the plan of bringing
tho nlant to this city assert that no
other city or state, in their belief can set
forth claims which in their sum total
will be greater than are those OF Wash
ington.
Secretary Daniels of the Navy De-
nartment has said that Washington will
be given every possible consideration
as a location for the eleven million dol
lar factory. Because Of the great num-
Der of sites which have been suggested
and the many claims which have to be
considered. no choice will be announced
probably for at least two months. In
the meantime the committee OF the
Chamber of Commerce, it was stated
today, would make every effort and
bring every possible influence to bear
to have the District selected as the
site Of the plant.
