VILLA RAID
IS REP0R TED
General Bells Official State
ment to Washington Says
Bandit Led Attack.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Washington, Sept 21.-The official
account Of Villas raid on Chihuahua
city Saturday received at the war de-
partment today from General Bell at
Ell Paso says the bandits captured
some artillery, sixteen automobile
loads of munitions, liberated two
hundred prisoners from the peniten-
tiary and got away after being join
ed by from a thousand to fifteen SOL
diers of the Carranza garrison.
General Bells report revealed that
Villa led his men in person and made
speech from the balcony of the gov
ernor's palace after he captured it.
He is said to have written General
Trevino, commander at Chihuahua,
Saturday to shake hands,"
The source of General Bells infor-
nation is not stated. Many officials
believe BELLS account was founded on
the minors reaching the border.

court this morning on a charge of rid

CAKE SALE FOR THE
SCHOOL BOOK FUND

Domesticity and The under
standing of little children go
hand in hand, and perhaps that
is the reason that two of Pensa-
cola's best cake makers are hold
ing a cake sale on Saturday at
Balkcom's Drug Store, for the
School Book Fund which The
Journal has started for children
who are unable to secure an edu-
cation, because deprived of the
means of buying school books, or
even decent wearing apparel for
school.
Miss Gertrude Friedman and
Mrs. Max Kahn are self-ap-
pointed committee of two, who
will hold a cake sale on Saturday
at Balkcom's, and they are also
taking orders for cakes in the
meantime. If you want to help
the children, assist these two
thoughtful women, and get the
best of cake, you may phone
your order to Miss Friedman,
272, or Mrs. Kahn, 1898. Or you
may visit them on Saturday, any
time after $50 a. M, and make a
purchase to help the cause.

POOL ROOM KEEPERS
CASE is UNDECIDED

John Nichols, proprietor of a pool
room on Palafox street, who was
tried before Justice Johnson on a
charge of allowing minors to visit the
place, was not informed yesterday
whether or not he would be required
to appear in the court of record to de-
fend himself against the charge.
Johnson stated last night that he had
not yet made up his decision in the
matter.
1t is understood that some of the
witnesses in the case offered testi-
mony at variance with one another
relative to material points, and there
will probably be some action taken
against parties in the case who are
alleged to have testified falsely.

ed general strike in sympathy with
the carmen, which will probably af-
feet approximately seven thousand
workers, will be called tomorrow, it
was announced late today by Ernest
Bohm, secretary of the Central Fed
Grated union.
This announcement came after a

strike.
Tonight Mayor Mitchell gave the
labor leaders formal warning that he
would employ the full civil and
military powers" conferred upon him
by law to prevent disorders if the
threatened strike is called.
The mayors statement warning the
strikers against disorder was concur
red in by Oscar Strauss, and issued
after conference which ended in a
deadlock.
Theodore Shonts, president of the
PETERBOROUGH, said tonight his COM
pany reinstated no union men. Old
employees could come back only after
quitting the union.
Ernest Bohm reiterated the state
ment that a walkout affecting seven
hundred thousand might begin tomor-
row.

ON ADAMSON LAW
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. Ex-senator
Reed of Missouri, in a speech at the
democratic state rally, replied to
Hughes recent attacks on the Adam
son law. He declared Hughes had
generally supported the railroads and
''if Hughes had had his way we would
have been at this moment engulfed in
a catastrophe so enormous as to ap-
pail the imagination"
He charged that Hughes in sub
stance, had accused organized labor
with approaching congress like a
highwayman with pistol drawn and
congress in cowardly and trucking
manner surrendered the dignity of the
nation.
sNeither the railroad presidents nor
employees ever came to congress with
any demand whatsoever" he said.

BUILDINGS ARE
n D 7 READY
FOR SCHOOLS
Will Take Many Weeks to
Straighten Out Chaos at
High School.
NO FIRE ESCAPES
AT GRAMMAR SCHOOL
No Penalty Is Imposed on
Contractors for Not Com
pleting on Time.

Over thousand school children
will be unable to enter school Mon
day, the opening day, unless a great
er miracle of construction work is
done today and tomorrow than seems
humanity possible.
The building on Palafox street,
fronting Lee Square, which will be
used as the high school this year, is
a chaos that it will take weeks to
straighten out, from all appearances.
The floors are inches deep in rubbish,
the plastering is not yet done and
the great supporting beams, needed
TO strengthen the building which has
had so much interior work cut away,
are not yet in place.
Benches and desks are piled on top
of each other and that more than two
rooms of the sixteen can possibly be
gotten ready by Monday seems alb
solutely impossible.
Only a small force of workmen is
employed on the work.
At the Grammar School.
AT the grammar school on Twelfth
avenue, work is further advanced,
and a large force of workmen might
be able to clean up the rubbish and
get the desks arranged, but the fire
escape will not be completed, al
though the fire escape was part of
the contract which names Septembec
rs as the day when the work will be
completed.
The desks and benches are thickly
splattered with paint and no effort
seems to have been made to protect
them.
No Penalty in Delay.
Three Contracts were made to cover
the work on both schools, aggregat-
ing nearly $4,000. Two of the con-
tracts specify September % as the
day on which the work is to be COM
peted; and one, September %; but
there is no penalty imposed on the
contractor in case the contract is not
fulfilled.
The contracts were made as fol-
lows:
Grammar school. August s, with r
M. Blount, for $5,945; work to be
completed on or before September %
August 20. Alterations and add.
tions to new high school, 1898; Fl. E

FOR VIOLATING THE
CITY BUILDING LAW

May Be Cats Next Week.
But yesterday the supreme court
granted writ of mandamus asked
by Cats counsel to compel the count
of precinct three of Alachua county.
When this is counted it will put Cats
again in the lead. The court will COM
pei the canvassing board to recon
vene and Cats may be declared the
nominee again next week.
The Alachua county writ asked by
Flournoy is returnable Monday. Knott
today demurred to that writ.
Tonight Knott is nominee, but
there is no telling how long he will
remain such. Already Knott is pre-
pairing to make further recounts in
counties heretofore unentered, so as
to overcome the expected majority
Cats will gain in Alachua.

clared the democratic nominee for

damused the supreme court for a re-
count in Alachua, he would be doing
what he had previously condemned
Knott for doing, and Mr.. Knott de-

The Advance of the Boil WeeviI

A press bulletin just issued by the National Chamber of Comerce has informed the country at large of something which The Republican spread at length before it's readers three months ago, account of the alarming encroachments of the boll-weevil almost the entire cotton belt southeastern and southern middle states A map ac- companies the bulletin showing the advance made by the pest since it first crossed the border from Mexico in 1892.
 It is said that the invader advances from forty seventy miles year and occupies almost all of the southern part of the country It is declared that pair of weevils is responsible 1000 900 de- scendants annually, hence it is by strange that it's progress for the past years been rapid notwithstanding all efforts to arrest it's ravages
 The first effect of the invasion after the boil weevil had obtained footing this side of the Rio Grande to turn the attention of southern agri- Culturiss to consideration of diversity of crops. The result has that while cotton growing an industry has been given severer blow, former cotton planters are prosperng under broader plans of diversified and more intensive agriculture
