statement by Attorney Clarke C. Fits,
chief counsel for Mr.. Averill, relative
to the eross-examination of United
States Bank Examiner James Fl. Kel
liner. Mr.. Fits says:
1--WE showed by his cross-cxamina-
tion in one-half hour Saturday that at
his examinations in July, 1914, he ap,
proved of the same things which he Sc
verely criticized in March, 1915, ano
on which the Indictment is partly
founded. He admitted that the six
checks which in direct examination he
said were drawn to the order of Mr..
Averill personally were in fact drawn
to the bank
"'He admitted that his testimony in
direct as to the count of cash and such
items was an error and that what he
criticized in March as to the method
| of keeping the cash book he had dis
| tinctly approved the July before.
! FMr. KelIiher admitted that any en-
tries which Mr.. Averili made as ex-
aminer charged, to affect the account
of the Shawmut bank, could not have
! deceived him or the treasurey depart
ment, as the law required the examiner
to verify the account by the books of
the Sbawmut, and that all bank people
! knew it.
:" Mr. AverilI does not appear broken
nor in fact any different than he has
/ been the past year.

WASHINGTON, May 5. - A new
American expedition may he ready to
cross the Mexican border in pursuit of
the bandits who raided Glen Springs
and Alpine, Texas, last week.
Secretary Baker said today he had
received report from Gen, Funston rs
to steps taken in that direction, but
declined to reveal its contents. Sec
retary Lansing has forwared a report
to the Mexican de facto government
calling attention to the latest bandit
activities along the border. No spe-
cife request was made for the DISPOSE
tion of Carranza troops to better pro-
tect the border, but state department
officials said it was assured that
prompt pursuit of the raiders already
had been ordered by Gen. Obregon, the
Mexican war minister, or by his subor-
dinates. 1t was believed possible some
method of direct cooperation for the
determination or capture of the Glen
Springs raiders might result from the
conference today between Gen. Scott
and Obregon at El Paso.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, May s.
Army officers at the southern depart
ment headquarters here are hopeful
that the Mexican bandit raid at Glen
Springs, Texas, in which American 500
diers and civilians were slain, will
serve to arouse the war department
to the pressing need of additional
troops for border patrol duty. Mai
Gen. Funston asked for more troops al
the time he was forced to take 2,50C
men from the border to strengthen
Pershing's s forces in Mexico, but the
request was not granted. The nine sol
diers attacked at Glen Springs belong
to the Fourteenth cavalry that has
been attempting to patrol stretch OF
nearly 400 miles of the widest coun
try along the entire Mexican border.

Owing to the greatly increased cost
Of quality tobaccos, in fact every

the makers of the San Feliee cigar,
The DIESEL Wemmer Company, have

The San Felice is national in its
