HARBESON.

The embargoes of certain districts
around the vicinity of New York City
by the Eastern Railroads, due to a
congestion of freight, is interfering to
some extent with the shipments OF
pine piling to points in the embargoes
districts. Due to the scarcity of boats
to take care of the unusually heavy
shipments for export, to European
points. and the large number of load
ed cars in the New York district, the
railroad companies have found it alb
sOlutely necessary to embargo car
load shipments of non-perishable
commodities in order to relieve the
congested situation, though it is now
thought they will be able to modify
the restrictions in a short time.

CHINESE REFUGEES
BRING THE STORY
Believed Number of Ameri-
cans Were in City When
Villa Took Possession.

Ell Paso, Tex, Nov. 1S.-According to
reported there that all foreigners in
Parral were slaughtered when Villa and
his bandits entered the latter town Is
days ago. Six Americans are known to
have been in Parral before the Villa
raid, and such reports have been reach
ing the border for several days, but all
efforts of mining companies represent
atives and United States department of
justice authorities to obtain confirma-
ton have been unavailing.
In Parral after the Alvarado mining
company party left were Jacob Meyers,
F. w. Palmer. William Scott, Henry
Schaefer, K. p. Cowell and DIR. Thomas
Flanagan. Nearly all mining men here
believe these men would have left Par
raj upon the approach of Vilistas as
the nearness of the bandits to the town
was well known when the Alvarado mi
ners fled.
Scores of terror stricken Chinese.
Syrians and Spaniards from all parts df
northern Mexico are on their way to the
border to escape the atrocities of villa.
Twenty-three Chinese refugees reached
Juarez today. They told state depart
ment agents here that already many If
their countrymen had been slaughtered
and tortured and as the news spread
every Chinese resident in the state Is
fleeing from Chihuahua. United States
authorities estimated today that not
less than 100 Chinese had been slain by
bandits in the last four months.

Capt Finch, will you give me a
note of the time the pilot came on
board, the number of passengers and

tor will come on board? ] will give
this matter my special attention at

Needless to say, the admiral's or
ders were promptly obeyed.
