The break came early in the

the road Taft had decided to
travel, and it was in consequence
of these early performances of
Taft that Roosevelt resumed his

Practical all the women who
were hoodwinked by Jacob vogeI-

stock and the fixtures.
Part of the stock realized 81 -

extended to those having claims
against the cloak house. McCor-

with bid OF 1863. The stock
includes several women's suits
and cloaks and a few mems
suits.

brought the wrath OF more than
200 women on his head. He has

having thrown these policies
Into the ditch and made his
political alliance with PEN
rose, Crane, Root, barnes
and other big business inter-
ests, Taft invited the opposf-
ton which has worked out
In the Taft-ROOseVelt feud.
Should Roosevelt be made the
candidate next spring,
he would no doubt have the op-
position of Taft. He might even
have the opposition of Taft's po-
litical backbone and musie-the
Penrose- Crane Root Barnes CON-
bination. That would be real OPP
and the result might be
Rooseyelts defeat and the re-
election of Wilson.
In any event the working out
Of the presidential campaign is to
be much influenced by these po-
litical feuds.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. IL.
While the Roosevelt-Taf politi-
cal feud may not rock the nation,
~ the bitter Roosevelt-Wilson af-
fair threatens to do, nevertheless
II will complicate the coming
presidential campaign.
1t also has the prestige of age,
for Il is older than either the
quarrel between Bryan and Will
son or that of Champ Clark and
Bryan.
Taft defeated Roosevelt's nomi-
nation, and Roosevelt defeated
Taft's election.
That was the score Nov. 10,
1912.
Taft won the electoral votes of
two states-Utah and Vermont.
Roosevelt polled larger popu-
lar vote than Taft, though Taft
had the regular republican nomi-
nation, while Roosevelt was the
nominee of newly-created PARTY.
Which was some rebuke for
the gentlemen who ran the steam
roller.
And while the two big dogs
fought, small dog came along
and carried off the bone. Hence
the triumph OF democracy. and

Bandit Pursuit Distracted.

While the conferences at FL Paso
were in progress, and after the Amerl-
can conferrees had been assured on
Nav . that the Mexican forces in the
northern part of the republic were
then being augmented so as 20 be able
TO prevent any disorders that would
endanger American territory, band Of
Nexicans. on the night of May 3, made
an attack at Glen Springs, Tex, about
twenty miles north of the border. kill
ing American soldiers and civilians,
burning and sacking property and car
rving OF two Americans as prisoners.
Subsequent to this event, the Mexican
government. as you state, gave lnstruc-
tions TO General Obregon to notify that
Of the United States that II would not
permit the further passage Of American
troops into Mexico on this account, an /
that orders had been gwen 20 all mill
tarv commanders along the frontier not

This Government is, OF course, not IN

assert that General Obregon never
gave any such notification 10 General
Scott or General Funston, or. so far
as known. 10 any other American Off
cial. General Obregon did, however,
inquire as 20 whether American troops
had entered Mexico in pursuit Of the

issued to American troops to cross the
frontier on account of the raid, bu.

Misstate SCOTS Report.

As an indication Of the alleged bad
faith Of the American government you
state that though General Scott de-
clared in this memorandum that the
destruction and dispersion OF the Villa
band mad been accomplished" yet
American forces are not Withdrawn
from Mexico. II is only necessary 20
read the memorandum. which is in the
Eneli h language, to ascertain that TINS
IS clearly a misstatement, for the
memorandum states that "the American
punitive expeditionary forces have de
stroyed or dispersed many OF the law
less elements and bandits, or
have driven them far into the interior
of the republic of Mexico" and, fur
Their. that the United States forces
we're then carrying on vigorous pur-
suit of such small numbers Of bandits
or lawless elements as may have es-
capped"
The context OF your note gives the
impression that the object OF the eX-
pedition being admittedly accomplished
the United States had agreed in the
memorandum 70 begin the withdrawal
Of its troops The memorandum shows,
however, that il was not alone on ac-
count of partial dispersion OF the ban
dts that it was decided to begin IN
withdrawal of American forces, ou:
EQUALLY on account of the assurances oil
the Mexican government that their
forces were "at the present time being
augmented and strengthened to such Al
extent that they will be able TO pre-
vent any disorders occurring in Mexico
that would in any way endanger Amer,
can territory" and that they would
continue to diligently pursue, capture
or destroy any lawless bands OF Dandlts
that may still exist or hereafter exist
in the northern part Of Mexico and
that il would make a proper dlstribu-
ton of such of its forces as may be
necessary TO prevent the possibility or
invasion of American territory from
Mexico
II WAS because of these assurances
and because of General SCOTS cont
dence that they would be carried out
that he stated in the memorandum that
the American forces would be "gradu-
ally withdrawn" 1t is to be noted that,
while the American government was
willing to ratify this agreement, General
Carranza refused 10 do so, as General
Oregon stated, because among other
things, it imposed improper conditions
upon the Mexican government
Notwithstanding the assurances II
the memorandum, it is well known that
the forces Of the de facto government
have not carried on a vigorous pursuit
of the remaining bandits and that no
proper distribution of forces to prevent
the invasion of American territory has
been made, as will be shown by the fur
Their facts hereinafter set forth. | am
reluctant to be forced to the conclusion
which might be drawn from these cir
cumstances that the de facto govern
ment. in spite of the crimes committed
and the sinister designs of Villa and
his followers. did not and does not now
intend or desire that these outlaws
should be. captured, destroyed or dis
persed bv American troops or, at the re-
quest of this government, by Mexican
