e 1t is assumed at headquarters that
as the country adjacent to Carrizal
has been thoroughly combed. all the
stragglers from the Carrizal fight have
been picked up and that those still
unaccounted for are dead. The dis
position of the two squadrOns has
been left absolutely to the discretion
of General Pcrshng.
Anxiety has been expressed among
army officers as to whether those
Americans killed at Carrizal have
been buried by the Mexlcans. 1t is
hoped that they were not left to the
dogs and vultures.

immediate movement of three brig

climbed aboard the special coaches

HUGHES HAPPY LOT.
TSini1y Tity JoirUaI

To ali appearances. Justice Hughes
is quite content where he is. He has
a life position in the worlds most
responsible judicial tribunal. He had
a rather strenuous experience in New
York politics, and wisely rejected an
opportunity TO break into national poll
tics on his own account in 1908. Since
he has been on the bench Mr.. Hughes
has said more than once that he con-
siders himself out of politics. So far
as we know. he would prefer to be
left out of the hurly burly, as indi-
Gated by his every response to the
urgings Of friends who tried to bring
him in. In resigning f-cni the bench
TO accept the republican nomination,
Mr.. Hughes would he trading a con-
genial certainty for possibly un-
congenial uncertainty. In existing cir
cumstances the republican nomination
is not equivalent to election 1t prob
ably will not be when the convention
must make it's decision. All things
considered, il would not be surprising
TO find Justice Hughes daily including
! in his evening prayer specific plea
that he be spared a return TO the tur-
mol.
