Queer LEGAL OaGhs.

In Siberia, in the wild Ostayaks law
courts, the natives swear by the newly
severed head Of a bear, which is i'm
plored subsequently to rend and de-
YOUR them should they perjure them
selves, while in Assam the opposing
witnesses lay hold of chicken by it's
feet and retain each one-half as the
clerk of the court chops it in two. By
undergoing this ceremony they are
considered to be pledged to a like fate
in the event Of their swearing falsely.

 AS to the Alaska transportation combine, there is fair hope that it may be checked in it's rapacity, and that without unnecessary delay. It is all too probable that the con- mission merchant may continue to flourish, like green devils club ill wet summer.
 There is, for the food situation i'll Alaska, just this one faint hope. Nor way has stopped the exportation of food stuff from that country to the war country. Commercial clubs, city councils, and other civic bodies in several cities of this country have petitioned those powers at Washing ton which have shown some affec- tion for the people during the last four years, to place a similar embar- go on the foodstuffs of this country. The theory is that we who are not dL Wdl SHOuIu uOL oulISl 1OI LIC sins of the idle fighters in the trench es of Europe.
 The Alaska optimist, and he is heard now and then, piping in a small thin voice, has this grain of conso- lation to offer. There are, in Alas ka, and even in Southeastern Alaska numberless places where mealy pota- toes may be raised and late in the spring-the coming spring - there's going to be small stampede to em- bryo homesteads.
 A few years ago, when the beef trust put up the price of meat, some considerable number of consumers worked a meager vengeance on the beef trust by becoming vegetarians for good, and there is way that a desperate people to retaliate on the commission merchant. People can live, you know, on boiled wheat, it's a hard live, to be sure, but there are people who may be driven to it this winter.

 Buyers from the war zone are in all the ports of the Pacific coast. That foreign menace is not there for nothing. They say they pretty near 1y had the Yakima potatoes corner ed and cached in pits, waiting until they can get cars to shove them to the Pacific coast and thence across to Europe, where they are to be eat en, mostly anyhow, by the idle fight ing population of the Eastern half of the suffering h..
 But the Seattle commission mer- chants, and the Alaska steamship magnates, gouls and vampires both, are overlooking no opportunities to get in their own gouges. Even in the stand pat old P.-I. is sitting up and taking notice. That conserva- tive journal dared to say the other day. albeit in fine print in the dark corner of the market reports, that there was no justification for the brokers in selling the common gar den Yakima variety of potato for $38 when the farmers were anxious to sell them at $30 But the cuticle of the commission brokers conscience toughened to sole leather by criti- cism for crimes against the consum- CT longer ago than yesterday
 Potatoes are more of thermome- ter than an exception.

Mexican Troops Fired
First Carrizal Shots
Troopers of the Tenth United States Cavalry Were Ad

the MeXicans opened fire and strong

opened up They did not run but
to make a long account short, after
about an hours fight, in which ibotn
troops had advanced, C troop to
position of Mexican machine gun and
K troop closing in slightly to the
left, we were very busy on tie right
keeping off flank attack. A group
of Mexicans left town, went around
our rear and our led horses left at
a gallop.
'tAt about o'clock one platoon of
Troop K, which was on our right, fell
back. Sergeant said he could not stay
there. Both platoons fell back about
1000 yards to the west and then, to-
gether with some men of Troop C.,
who were there, these men scattered.
81 was slightly wounded. Capt.
Boyd, a man told me, was killed.
Nothing was seen of Lieut. Adair af
ter fight started, so man l saw stat
ed. l am hiding in hole 1000 yards
from field and have one other wound
ed man and three men with me.
(Signed) "Morey,
Captain"
In transmitting Capt. Morey's let
ter Gen. Pershing said:
1'The three men referred to by
Morey are the three men who had the
above message in their possession.
The wounded man was from C troop,
and was shot through the knee. Lieut..
Meyers reports that the three men
were rather vague as to where they
had left Capt. Morey, but stated that
on the night of the 21st day had car
ried him two miles; that Morey be-
came weak, could not go further, and
told them to leave him. They thought
he was dying from loss of blood and
lack of water. Meyer reconnoitred
20 miles east of Santa Maria, but
found nothing. Out OF grain and for
age, horses in bad shape, he had to
return
Gen. Funston issued no orders to
Gen. Pershing, tonight.
1t was observed at headquarters
that Capt. Morey's note was address
ed to his immediate superior, the
commanding officer at Ojo Federico,
and it is surmised that Lieut.. Meyer
sent the letter to the commanding Of
ficer at Ojo Federico, he in turn for
warding it to Gen. Pershing. This
would explain the fact that the let
ter apparently was not delivered to
Gen. Pershing by Lieut.. Meyers on
his return with the stragglers found
at San Luis ranch last night.
Capt. Lewis Sidney Morey was the
son of the Rev. L. II. Morey Of San
Antonio. He was born in Pittsford,
n. Y, in 1875, and spent his early
youth in Minnesota, coming to Texas
with his family in 1892. He was grad
uated from West Point in 1900 and
served as lieutenant and captain in
both the Tenth and Twelfth cavalry
regiments. He was married in 1903 to
Miss Irene Hahn of Austin, Texas.
