BANDITS SECURE $4,000
Treasure Carried by American Vic
TINS. Said to Have Been in Gold.

Ell Paso, Jan.1S.-Whiie the ar
rival of the body of Gen. Jose Rodri-
gueZ, commander in-chief of Villa cav
airy, who recently turned bandit, and
who was executed at MADEIRA last
Thursday, was being awaited ut Ju-
arez yesterday, story was circulated
here that the bandits who murdered
the eighteen American employees Of
the Cusi Mining Company near Santa
Isabel a week ago had obtained about
$4,000 from their victims.
Although Potter Palmer. president
of the company, who arrived here with
Mrs. Palmer, from Florida, nearly
eleven hours behind schedule. said
that he did not see how this could nc
possible, there was conclusive proof
that the men who were slain were
first robbed Of Il large amount cr
money.
One story was that the money was
in gold. and another was that it was
probably silver. Mr.. Palmer said the.
money was in silver, as the bulk of
it was carried Bye. 2. Watson.

Yesterday Senator Jordan proposed
two amendments to the constitution,
made some twelve years ago. He
seeks to reduce the number of per-
sons in the Senate of. Virginia from
forty to not exceeding twenty and not
less than ten. The section of the con-
stitution, which is wrong. if the view
of Senator Jordan is correct, is Il.

convention.
Section AZ of the constitution is that
which deals with the composition Of
the House Of Delegates. The consti-
tuition permits not more than 100
members of that body, and Senator
Jordan proposes to lay off half the
men and let the others do the work.
In other words, he proposes to have
i House of Delegates of not more
than fifty and not less than forty men.

recovered and returning to the front.
is reported in high quarters TO be on
his way to the eastern theater of war.
II is in the east that wclI-informed
persons expect the next great bat
ties to occur, and the arrival Of the
kaiser there may be the signal for a
nenewal of the great German often
sivc against the Russians, which was
halted by the Serbian campaign.
Germans in general believe that the
war will be won in Russia. The dead
lock in the west is one that can be
broken by neither Teutons nor allies
without enormous losses that would
make victory in such operations an
empty one, according to some German
experts. They point out that the leng
tn Of the front in Russia makes the
cdslcIH IHcsIcI VI wal VIC OHlS bHt
in which there cannot 0e any exercise
of military strategy.
The belief is growing in Berlin that
there will be no campaign against
.Saloniki. BY its victory in Serbia
Germany accomplished its two fold
purpose fmaking Bulgaria its ally
and stopping the transportation Of
ammunition to Russia from Saioniki.
Nothing further would be gained by
the capture Of Saloniki, the experts
say.
The enlistment of Bulgaria as an
ally Of the Teutons and the severance
of communication between SaIoniki
and Russia is blow at the Russians
that has been little appreciated ex-
cept in Berlin.
The cars army got a large part
of its ammunition supplies from Eng
land and France through Saloniki.
Now it is dependent upon its own
exertions and upon the supplies that
can be carried over the Trans-Si-
berian Railway or taken in through
,Archangel which is completely ice
bound in winter

have influence with many members of
Congress, it is believed.
Next Thursday members of the Ma
tional Security League will assemble
here to lay their views before Con
gress. This promises to be the most
important gathering of preparedness
advocates yet held in Washington or
elsewhere. Representative men will
attend from practically every state
in the union.
All these bodies, however, will find
it necessary to exert their influence
to the fullest degree if the way is
paved for effective legislation upon
the question of preparedness. And
their efforts will have to be supple
mented by pressure from purely To-
cal organizations. The opposition to
the Administrations policy is obst-
nate, even defiant; and unless the
friends of the movement which the
President has urged go to its sup
port this opposition will be in a posi-
ton to seriously compromise it.

IF YOU Have CATARRH
READ this
Breathe Hyomei Four Times a Dav and
Watch Results. Give Prompt Relief.

The pleasantest. most convenient and
most scientific method for the treat
ment of catarrh is Hyomei. Simply
put few drops of Hyomei IN the in
haler that comes with every complete
package and then breathe its air for a
few minutes four times a day.
Ii seems remarkable that so simple a
way of treating catarrh will effect such
quick relief, but the most important
discoveries of science have always been
the simplest. By breathing Hyomei in
this way every particle of air that en-
tiers the air passages of the throat and
head and goes into the lungs is charged
with healing balsam that kills the
germs and bacili of catarrh and soothes
and allavs all irritation.
The first days use of Hyomei will
show an improvement and IN short
time there should be no further trouble
from catarrh. Its action is rapid and
lasting.
You take no risk in buying Hyomei.
A complete outfit is Inexpensive but If
after using YOU can say that it has not
helped you Il. Z. McRoberts will return
your money. What other treatment
for catarrh is sold under guarantee
like this? 2-10-2t
