On the whole, the Drummers look like
they ought to have a pretty fair team
when they all get sound again. Jourdan
handles himself nicely at first and the
pitching that has been displayed here has
been good as the average. The out
field is probably not so perfectly rounded
out as 1t might be.

Clyde Engle, SavaEe's new manager,

Monday was gratifying and the earnest
ness with which he does things is in

Chihuahua City, June 16.-Foul
thousand men of the Durango divi-
sion of the Carrancista army, under
Gen. Domingo Arrieta. have arrived
at 'Concho. about 60 miles southeast
of here, to reinforce General Maldon-
ado in the bandit campaign In that
district, according to reports here to-

Gen. Jacinto Trevino, commanding
the army of the north, announced to-
day he has received acknowledgment
from General Pershing. American ex-
peditionary commander. of his recent
order nullifying any agreement made
with Gen. Gabriel Gavira.
Anti-American feeling here, which
had died down materially. was pro-
voked again by exaggerated reports
of a recent fracas between American
soldiers and natives in a saloon In
Cases Grandes. in which a Mexican
policeman was wounded. However,
the military authorities have the city
well under control.
Two American deserters captured
here are being held here awaiting or

we're brought here tonight by mining
men from Parral.
Calixto Contreras, bandit chief
tain, recently cut the ears off Il score
of his captives and sent them to Gen.
Luis Herrera, commander at Parral,
they said. The Americans asserted
they had seen several of the mutilat-
ed Carrancista soldiers, who were llb7
Grated with instructions to return 10
Parral and warn their commander
that further activities in the pandlt
campaign would result in the tongues
of all captives being cut out.
Private dispatches also received
here today said that General Herrera
was obliged to adopt stringent meas
ures to prevent a proposed anti.
American demonstration in Parrai
early in the week. 1t was said that
Herrera went TO the municipal plaza,
where a crowd had gathered, pointed
out 10 the throns that without the
operation of American mining prop
critics in the district many OF the
poems would starve, and threatened 10
execute any person attempting to or
ganize an anti-foreign demonstration.
Rumors that Gen. Gabriel Gavlra
had been executed on his arrival at
Mexico City for high treason in con-
nection with his recent conference
with General Pershing were denied at
military headquarters in Juarez to-
d9y. Capt. Alberto Gavira, a son OF
General Gavira, who was summoned
TO the capital to confer with the MIN

Shouts Above Din


Finally, ignoring lesser outbreaks
and shouting above the din and con-
fusion, Pittman managed to get
through with his speech.
II remained for senator Walsh 10
save the administration plank. In an
impassoned speech he swept aside
the smaller questions which had been
Injected into the fight. told the dele
gates that President Wilson himself
knew the plank was in the platform
and considered IL essential there for
party victory
Quotes Cleveland.
Whatever your opinion may be-
he said I'VE shall never be anything
but a discordant and divided party
unless we surrender some OF our con-
victions to the wisdom OF a majority.
Here you are confronted, as one of
our famous leaders said, with a con-
dition. not a theory. The twelve suf-
frage states represent ninety-on votes
In the electoral college. Every politi-
cal party has made this declaration in
some form or other. 1t becomes a
simple question OF whether YOU will
incur the enmity OF these women.
There is no possibility of losing n sin
gle vote II you adopt this majority
plank because every other party has
done the same.
The Short aud Ugly.
II ask you" he cried, If you're go
ing to put a resolution In hero that
is lie. You can't adopt this minority
report without stultifying yourselves" "
Senator Walsh then explained that
the president knew about the suffrage
plank and added:
He believes II vital TO his success
that II stay there. / ask you who Is
there here who is wiser or more pat
rlotic that he?"
Nature Seems In Sympathy.
While the fight had been going on
n thunderstorm burst and when the
row down on the convention floor was
ut its height the storm reached its
climax. The booming of the thunder
mixed with the roaring shouts on the
floor and the clatter caused by the
the speakers. The storm cleared Just
as Senator Walsh finished speaking,
and the closing words of his pleas for
the administration plank swept a
change of sentiment over the crowd
as welcome to the suffragettes as the
wave OF cool, refreshing air that pour
ed down into the hot, reeking Coli
scum.
There were renewed cries of vote,
vote" but they were not shouts FOR
the defeat of the plank. As the clerks
called the roll of states the votes top
pied into the column supporting the
plank as the committee had written
1t SO fast that the defeat of the sub
stitute was assured before the call had
gone a dozen states. At the close of
the roll call the whole platform as
written was adopted and after dispos-
ing Of some formalities the convention
adjourned sine die at all o'clock.
