AMERICANS LOST
TWELVE IN BATTLE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE oNE)

afternoon, but for some reason he
kept it secret until late in the after
noon, when an American, J. c. Hubbel,
returning from the interior, brought to
Ell Paso the news that he had seen a
number of Mexican dead along the
Mexican Central railroad at Villa Ahu-
mada and had been told that there
had been battle there between the
Mexicans and the negro troops. The
battle is said TO have begun at 10: 80
yesterday morning and lasted about
one hour. The failure of General Per
shing to report on the fight indicated
that hte American survivors have not
yet returned to their base. Consul
Garcia announced from El Paso that
he had received official reports con
firming the report that the Americans
engaged were part of the Tenth cav
airy.

DEMOCRATIC
CONVENTION
S|DEL|GHTS

One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the recent Democratic con
yention AT ST. Louis is the fact that 1t
took lovely woman to force the only
roll call demanded on the national
platform, as well as to inspire the
only real excitement that marked the
convention.
Votes for Women" was the issue
that stirred up things. The Mexican
plank. nailed In at the last minute by
the platform builders, did not create
ripple. "Americanism" and pre-
paredness" received polite ovations,
but It remained for the woman suf-
frage plank to start a real fracas.
Headed by Gov. Ferguson of Texas,
the ants endeavored to wrench the
suffrage plank from the platform. But
President Wilson's feelings on the
subject. as presented to the conven-
ton by Senator Walsh of Montana,
were not to be ignored. And so, after
three-hour battle in which the term
political expediency" was used with
tclllns eilec', the ailiS "eie iout0u
by vote of SSS1s to 1S1R
The vote, however, does not tell the
real story Of the battle. which was
one of the most vigorous and pic
.uresque ever staged at national
Democratic convention. Fifteen wom-
en- delegates fought from the floor on
the side of the pro-suffragists, while
low pennants and cheered them on
from the balconies. A thunderstorm
that almost drowned out the voices
of the delegates as they answered the
roll call brought both tbs suffrage
battle and the convention to most
melodramatic finish.

Shows Dexterity of Rogues.

The second account shows how quickly
a car may be stolen. and at a time and
place when danger is least suspected. The
owner of the car was taking a young
woman home from the theater to an
apartment house on 18th street near
Broadway. He brought his car to a stop
facing the North river, on a grade slop-
ing in that direction. 1t was after IL
o'clock, and there were no other cars
nearby.
He accompanied the young woman to
her apartments and was back in a few
moments There had not been a sound

leased the brake and started the car
down hill. turning out of sight at the

1t transpired that he lived close by; he
had made a practice of watching for cars

Need of Caution Impressed.

AS to the three "don'ts" here are
three accounts of stolen cars to illus
trate them, showing in each case how
the exercise Of caution would have
saved the car.
The first refers to leaving a car un-
protected before an Office building, the
Masonic Hall. at IS West 24th street.
The owner of the automobile drove up
to the building at l o'clock in the
afternoon. He went at once Into the
building and did not come out until
o'clock. When he did the car was gone.
One of the first persons he questioned
was the Waterman who stood at the en-
trance of the building. The Waterman
could remember nothing as to the car.
there being a string Of them along the
curbing most Of the day, but he said:
IF you had asked me I would have
kept my eye on your car
The theory Of the police was that the
thieves were lurking near by when this
owner got out Of his car-that they saw
First, that the owner did not lock the
car: second. that he asked no one to
watch the car.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1916-02-27
locked" Car Stolen.

The third account is that Of a car stolen
with the mechanism securely locked. The
owner Of the car lived in Brooklyn He
drove the car inside his yard and left
It by the side of his house, expecting
later to take his wife out to the theater.
Before leaving the car he locked it, and
with the act dismissed from his mind any
thought Of danger from thieves. But
thieves were near: a plot involving sew
era1 accomplices had been made to steal
that very car. They had observed that
the pavement upon which the owner was
in tho habit of leaving his car when he
INTENDED to go out later in the evening:
was an incline that extended upward from
the street. and that this incline was con-
tinued in one direction by the street itself.
One OF the thieves released the brake
and nodselessly the automobile was run
out OF the yard and down the street out
OF sight Of the house. Then little red
automobile. which had been standing a
short distance away since early in the
afternoon. came forward, graphing
hook was thrown over the axle OF the
stolen car. and it was drawn away The
car was towed to garage the owner
OF which was also in the plot, and there
the lock was broken. These facts came
out Later when the thieves were captured.
