NOW WALKS WITH CRUTCHES
Carranza Newspaper Admits Daring
Raider Is Alive and To Be
Rekoned With.

FL paso, Texas, July 10.-Villa is
coming north as soon as he is able to
sit in saddle, and he is determined
to fight the Americans, according to
a proclamation which was brought to
the border tonight by Ignacio Bonilas,
a relative Of Manuel Bonillas, Villa S
purchasing agent.
The manifesto was issued at Villas
camp on the Rio Florido, in the State
of Durango, where he is believed to
have been in hiding. 1t was dated June
10, and was circulated prior to the taxi
ing Of Jiminez by Calizto Contreras,
Villas principal commander. The brief
statement bears Villas signature, Bo-
nillas asserts, and says Villa is not
making war on the Carranza forces,
but would attack the Pershing column
at its weakest point, and would gather
sufficient troops around him to drive
the Americans out of Mexico.
The Mexican also brought copy OF
FL Democrata, the CarranZa publica.
ton issued in Chihuahua, in which ii
was admitted for the first time by the
Carranza officials that Villa was alive
and that he participated in the looting
OF Jiminez following its capture from
the scattered troops of General IgnaciC
Ramos after General Ramos was
killed.
The paper, translation of which
was given to General Bell today
states that Villa rode into Jiminez pal
ticipated in the loot and sitting in his
carriage, ordered the Villistas to de
stroy everything belonging TO Mrs
Sarah Towns, the American who was
forced to fee to the border for hel
life. a crude crutch was seen beside
Villa in the coach, the story in r
Democratic stated.

North Adams

North Adams, July 11.-Some of the
circumstances surrounding the death
of Raymond Soluski, three years of
age, which occurred at the home of An
thony Maxymillian on Mill street Sat
urday morning, led to an investigation
of the matter by the board of health
and DR.. Stanley II. Osborn, state
health officer for the Berkshire dis
trict, yesterday afternoon. The So
luski child had but recently arrived in
North Adams from Brooklyn. n. Y,
and was i'll only a short time when he
died The cause of death was given
as gastro-enteritis, and it was supposed
to be superinduced by eating green ap,
pies and bologna. The body was taken
to Brooklyn for burial Saturday, and
no autopsy was possible.
Some OF the symptoms are said to
point strongly to infantile paralysis.
A number Of people arrived in North
Adams from Brooklyn and New York
Saturday, and they will be kept un.
der close surveillance for some time
The health board quarantined the
home OF MaXymillan, where the So.
luski child died, and will restrain those
who recently arrived from cities
where the disease has been prevalent
until it is certain that they are not
capable of spreading the scourage.

HUNDREDS FINED
FOR VIOLATING
HEALTH RULES
Vigorous Measures in New York to
Check Paralysis Epidemic
CASES NOW NUMBER 1883
Fewer Deaths Reported But Authori-
ties Not Ready to Announce Any
Real Progress &

New York, July 1.-THE campaign
of cleanliness by all city departments
to wipe out the epidemic OF infantile
paralysis was continued yesterday
with increased vigor. Hundreds Of per-
sons were brought to court and fined
for disregarding health department in
structions, particularly in territories
where the epidemic is most pro-
nounced.
There were fewer deaths in the "a
hours ending at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning, only IA being reported. The
number of new cases in the "a hours
period, however. increased to 103.
Thus far the epidemic has caused 23S
deaths, and the number infected is
1888.
The cooperative work of govern
ment health experts, city officials. sew
eral of the most noted physicians Of
the country, the railroads and motion
picture theatre proprietors has in.
creased the general confidence that
the epidemic soon will be checked. The
national American woman suffrage
association yesterday placed its entire
organization machinery at the dis
posal OF the federal government. The
services of thousands of organized
women throughout the country have
been proffered to Surgeon'General
Blue of the United States public health
service.
The Pennsylvania railroad issued
orders that its cars operating in and
out of New York city be thoroughly
fumigated every day. This will be
continued until the epidemic Is
checked or danger of contagion has
| passed.
The public service commission took
| steps to have all rapid transit con-
struction work kept in the most sani-
tary condition while the epidemic
lasts. In instances where subway ex-
cavations have been used as garbage
dumps by persons living along the
| line the contractors have been or
dered to notify the police and have
the offenders arrested.

London July 10-On both eastern
and western fronts heavy fighting per-
sists. This is especially the case on
the western front, where the struggle
is not without fluctuations of fortune,
and brings to mind the warnings OF the
correspondents from the opening of
the Somme battle that steady, methodi-
cal pressure, rather than rapid ad-
vances, must be expected.
In brilliant attack the French have
carried Hill 81 height which domi-
mates the Somme southeast of Biaches,
according to the official statement is
sued by the French War Office tonight.
The British official statement tonight
says that the Germans have entered
Trones Wood, but records further prog
ress for the British east OF Ovillers and
La Boisselle, in addition to footing
secured by the British in the Mametz
Wood, where heretofore the Germans
had resisted all their efforts.
The German official communication
admits French possession of Biaches,
only a short distance from Peronne,
which town is thus seriously exposed
and threatened. 1t claims, however
the recapture of Trones Wood as well
as Barleux, where the French also re-
port progress.
German war correspondents are al
ready saying that the allied offensive
has been brought to a standstill.
