Capt. Morey's troops was on the
right flank and he could follow the
charge of Troop c under Capt. Boyd
and Lieut.. Adair only to the fringe Of
brush.
when I got behind the WALL re-
sumed MOrey, 81 told the men pUr-
posed to stay there. Those who wish
ed to go, told to CO."
Four men, including one who was
wounded, elected to try to escape
and Capt. Morey said he saw them
ascend a hill stretching away to the
north.
Men of Troop c tell me" he said,
that Lieut.. Adair died in an irriga-
ton ditch with his head held by a
nOn-cOmmissioned officer. There
was water in the ditch and the dying
Adair would have pitched forward
into it had he not been supported. I
understand that the officer left Adair
in the ditch at his order and went
forward toward CaTTiZal Looking
back. he saw Adair with glazed eyes
and his head webbing against the
sides of the ditch. So he went back
and stayed with him until he died.
Capt. Boyd was killed when his
troops made a rush for the trench in
which the Carranzistas had machine
gums. Just how he died I do not
know"
Capt. Morey was so weak he could
walk only 300 yards or so at each
stretch and as night wore on he de-
cided it was Humanity impossible for
him to 90 further. He first request
ed the men to leave him and, wheI
they refused, he ordered them to
leave.
Near the ranch he found five troop
ers of the Tenth cavalry. They were
making their way for a ranch at
San Inis, IS miles away, when they
found J. T. McCabe, manager Of the
ranch.

just said are highly favorable in con trast with those abroad. The big har- vest and high prices for all our agri- cultural products are making farmers of the west and south wonderfully prosperous. Our mines are busy and obtaining high prices for their products, coal perhaps being the only important exception. Our steel plants, as every one knows, are turning out the largest product on record at abnormally high prices, being often sold more than six months ahead Our cotton and woolen mills are likewise enjoying greater ac- tivity and good prices; so, too, are our boot and shoe factories, automobile plants, chemical industries, etc. The building trades are experiencing a most pronounced recovery, and the revival ot enterprise in general is emphasized by the record of new interpretations in the eastern states which amounted to over $33O, ,000,000 in January. This was the largest total for a single month in many years, and 300 per cent greater than in January a year ago. The gratl- flying feature of this showing was that the larger proportion of new incorpo- ratfons was purely domestic in char acter and not in connection with fur nishng war supplies, although that was an important factor"
