result of a decision made by State
Auditor Greene that sheriff's should
be allowed mileage but one way when

ing the law allowing the mileage.

should be allowed but one way and
will hold up payment of mileage
both ways until instructed 70 pay 1t

WANT ELLIS TO'PAY
LICENSE FEE OF sl0O
INSPECTOR TOM AULL SWEARS
OUT WARRANT AGAINST
HARTFORD MAN.

City Incense Inspector Tom Aull
got busy Friday afternoon and swore
out a warrant against w. e. Ellis of
Hartford, who was loading poultry
in Owenboro in car load lots to be
shipped to New York. charging him
with buying fowls for the purpose Of
shipping them to another market,
without license.
There is a city ordnance that re-
Quires anyone engaged in this BUSH
ness to pay license Of 800. The
warrant was not served, as Mr.. Ellis
agreed with City Prosecutor Jett on
Friday night that he would return
one day next week, when the case
would be submitted to Judge Haskins
on an agreed statement of facts.
The poultry loaded by Mr.. Ellis
was received from the business de-
partment of the American Society Of
Equity, and was pool Of about 4O.-
900 pounds worth nearly $4,000.
which sum was paid out to the farm
ers.
Mr.. Ellis contends that he is buy
ing through the Equity society and
not direct from the farmer, and that
those disposing of their poultry are
members of the Equity society,"
.Owensboro Inquirer.
Mr.. w. e. Ellis was interviewed
yesterday by representative of The
Republican and stated that he was
not, in Greensboro Friday and that
the Mr.. Ellis named above was his
brother. B. H. Ellis, of the firm Of
w. e. Ellis & Bro, and that before
loading the poultry he (B. H. Ellis)
called ON the Mayor of greensboro to
inquire as to the necessity Of having
license to receive the pooled poul-
try. The mayor, who was otherwise
engaged, told him to go ahead with
the receiving and that he would pro-
tect him. Later the warrant was
sworn out upon the complaint of
greensboro poultry dealers. Mr..
Ellis stated that he was perfectly
willing to pay the license II the law
required it. but that he felt that 1t
was unjust inasmuch as he had
bought the pool as whole from the
farmers and was not operating a
business in the city of greensboro.

Ell Paso, March 22.-Silence,

Gus sources of the grave disaffection
among the Carranza trops.

Andres Garcia, the Carranza con-
sui here, branded as false the report
that Herrera with 1000 troops had
gone over to villa, but in high Off
cial circles 1t is regarded at least pos
sible.
Since yesterday morning General
Gavira, the commander at Juarez,
claimed the wires along the Mexican
& Northwestern railroad, from
Juarez to Casas Grandes had been
cut, and consequently could not
give out any information in regard
to the reported battle at Namiquipa,
but the Americans here. especially
the refugees from Mexico are frank
ly skeptical both as to the reported
battle, and cut wires.
