CIUDAD JUAREZ, Chih., Mex, Jan.
16-For the protection of the two mil
lion acre American owned Babicora
ranch, permission to maintain a pri-
vate "feudal" army has been granted
by de facto government officials. Two
hundred men are armed today to de-
fend the properties against bandit for

In the month the private army has
been in existence they have engaged

BUm COUNTY DIVISION BILL
GETS JOLT IN THE LOWER
ROUSE YESTERDAY.
mo Request Bills TO Be Con-
SiderUd.
Majority and Minority Members of
Reference Committee Do Not Look
With Favor On Division Bills
5 Having Troubles of Their Own.
tEditoriaI Correspondencel

BOISE, Jan. 16-"Went right in and
turned around and walked right out
again" characterizes with precision if
not with beauty, the progress made
by Fred Nihart's county division mea-
sure in the House of Representa-
tives yesterday afternoon. The bill
was launched on it's journey by Lucas
of New Meadows, and was introduced
by request. The reference commit
tee which met to consider the bill i'm
mediately after the adjournment of
the short session, ordered the bill re-
turned to Lucas, with notification that
"by request" measures would be out
of style during the forthcoming four
or five weeks.
Lucas, If he still insists on father
ing the measure in the House, con-
fronts the necessity of having the COM
mittees action overruled by a vote OF
the House. or Of eliminating the OBJ
jectionable "by request" feature, in
either of which cases the bill must
again go to the reference committee
where it will be subject to further
discriminating inspection. The ref
erence committee, both majority and
minority members, are said to look
with disfavor upon outsiders" inject
ing county division measures into the
legislature. 1t is the general opinion
that these bills take up too much time
of the legislature and are a serious
detrment to effective progress. Plenty
of this class OF trouble arises from
delegations which have division
schemes for their own county but i
is said the reference committee will
do its utmost to frown down the prac-
tice of delegations from other coun-
ties endeavoring to provide division
troubles from counties other thar
sheir own.

DR.. Hyde has been tried on the MUIR
der charge three times in the last sew
en- years. Prosecution of the case
was dropped Saturday by order OF
Judge E. f. Porterfield in criminal
court. The first case resulted in a
conviction, but retrial was ordered on
appeal. The second was a mistrial
because one of the jurors climed over
a transom and escaped to visit his
sick wife. The third trial resulted
in disagreement.
DR.. Hyde always features and the
prominence of the principals at one
time commanded nation wide atten-
tion.
DR.. Hyde was a prominent physician
here and we'll known as the son-in-
law of Colonel Swope After Colonel
Swope's death from typhoid fever sew
en- years ago, it was charged DR.
Hyde had placed the typhoid germs in
the drinking water at the Swope home
while DR.. and Mrs. Hyde drank from
a special water cooler of their own
DR.. Hyde claimed the Swope water
supply was contaminated by a nearby
cesspool.

the charge of perjury at Chairman
Henry of the committee, reiterating
that the latter had mentioned the

UNITED Pressl

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-Great Britain
is expected to ask another $3.50 .000,-
600 loan from the United States
through ]. P. Morgan and company
within the next forty eight hours.
This will make approximately $780,
100000 England has borrowed in the
United States since the war began in
1914. This is expected to be a direct
government loan backed by British
collateral in the United States. The
new loan probably will run five years.
No objection is expected by Morgan
from the Federal Reserve Board so
long as the collateral is kept liquid
so it can be realized on by the bank
ers when the money is needed. Great
Britain already has 100000, 900 in
loans coming due in the United States
between 1918 and 1921.

"Nothing But the Truth"

Comes to Birmingham for the first time next Monday night when it will be seen at the Jefferson, with a com pany of notable merit in its several characters. This is the farce written by James Montgomery and exploited by G. NJ. Anderson and Lawrence Web CT, that was played an entire year at the Longacre theatre. New York, and kept the metropolis in laughing good humor for the entire time. It is a farce of unique idea based upon d wager that it's central character can speak the truth--and that alone. 1t is this effect to prove a theory that proves the moving cause of endless complications that are so irresistably funny that laughter is the dominant feature of the performance. It is a story of the present, each one of it's characters is of a type of now and it's wit of line and rapid action are a de- light to the jaded amusement seeker. It is difficult to describe this breezy conceit in cold type. Suffice it to say that it has been written down as a riot of laughter from rise to fall of curtain

all the allies. The neutrals cannot exist without British and American supplies and within the next two or three months all of them are expected to declare flat embargoes on the eX- port of their commodities to all coun~ tries. This will hit England as well as Germany, but the British can draw on the United States while Germany, cut off from the rest of the world, cannot exist, officials here say, if neI- tral shipments cease.
 To those familiar with the military and economic situation in Germany, the new policy indicates that the all lied governments have come to the conclusion that by making every use of economic weapons the war will be ended much more quickly than by mill itary supremacy alone
 While the American and British em bargoes cut off virtually all supplies to the European neutrals, there still is the chance that some goods will reach them from South America de- spite the British blockade. To meet this situation, the United States and Great Britain are prepared to embargo coal shipments to South America, if necessary, and are ready to refuse bunker coal to European neutral ves- sells that may attempt to engage in that trade.
