Hermoslo viii Take Charge Remains of Dead Official

Yesterday information was
received to the effect that the
murdered official was on his
way from Naco to Aqua Prieta,
travelling in an automobile, con-
tanning $4,000 federal money
that was being transferred from
the custom house at Naco to the
depository at Aqua Prieta, with
him a chauffeur and three
guards. They had departed
from Naco very early in the
morning, and the attack was
made upon them at about five
o'clock. The attacking party is
reported to have numbered but
four or five persons, but they
ambushed the travellers, shoot
ing them at point plank range,
killing Caturegli and the
guards at the first fire, and
wounding the chauffeur.
It is supposed that in the
night the murderers learned
that Caturegli and his party
would start early in the morn
ing with the money, and that
they went in advance and am
bushed them. The murderers
travelled in an automobile, into
which they transferred the
money taken, and made a geta-
way.
AS soon as knowledge Of the
successful attack had reached
Naco a detachment of rurales
was sent in pursuit of the rob-
bers, but at last accounts they
had not overtaken them.
At one time the deceased ad.
ministrator was attached to the
Mexican custom house at Noga-
les, Sonora, and he was known
well in the line city.

Children Fight Cougar.


 London, Jan. 2O.-In recognition of their courage in fighting off with their fists a cougar which attacked them, King George has awarded tho Albert Medal to two children of Cow ichan Lake, Vancouver Island The children are Doreen Ashburnham, eleven years old, and Anthony Far Ter, eight year old. According to the account of the incident recorded in the Official Gazette, it transpired as follows:
 On the 23rd of September, 1916, the two children left their homes at Cowichan Lake for the purpose of catching their ponies and, when about half a mile from home, they were attacked by the cougar. They were almost upon the animal before they saw it crouching in a path at a corner. The cougar first sprang upon the little girl and she was knocked down with her face to tho ground, the animal being on her back. The boy at once attacked the cougar with his fists and riding bridle driving the animal off the girl; it then attacked him and his companion getting to her feet, came to his rescue, fighting with her clenched hands and bridle. even putting her arm into the cougars mouth, to try to prevent it from bit ing him. She succeeded in getting it off the boy. It then stood on it's hindquarters and fought with her but evidently was disturbed by sOme sound as it presently sunk away and ran under a log. where it was af- forwards killed.

HENRY FORD WILL
RUN FOR SENATE

Washington, June 13.-Henry
Ford announced here tonight that
at the request of President Wilson
he had decided to become a candi-
date for United Safes senator from
Michigan, if the nomination should
be offered him. Neither Mr.. Ford
nor those in his confidence would
add to a brief statement making
the announcement. issued after the
automobile maker had called at the
White House. This statement did
not specify what nomination would
be accepted but the understanding
among political leaders is that the
president hopes to see the Republi-
cans of Michigan accept the invita-
ton of the Democrats to join forces
in the election of Mr.. Ford, a Re-
publican.

Repulse Heavy Attack-Germans
Enter Xivray Village But Are
Driven Out.

With the American Army in
France, June 16.-About 600 Ger
man shock troops raided the Ameri-
can first line positions at the villa
ges of Xivray, in the Toul sector,
early this morning. Some of the en-
emy got into Xivay, but were soon
driven out. At other points the
Germans were badly beaten.
"The attack began at a. M, af-
ter an extremely. violent lombard
ment of the front line and American
batteries and villages far in the
rear. The Germans advanced swift
ly to the attack, but were met by
heavy fire. Those who penetrated
Xivray were forced speedily to with
draw, and elsewhere the enemy was
completely repulsed.
According to prisoners the OBJ
ject of the enemy was to take Am
erican prisoners. This object failed,
as no American is reported miss
ing" ...-.. r.
The Germans, evidently angered
by the failure of the attack, con-
tinued an intermittent shelling Of
villages in the rear throughout Sum,
day.
The American troops engaged at
close quarters the small German
force that entered Xivray. There
was severe fighting with bayonets
and dubbed rifles. The Germans
left nine dead in the streets, and six
prisoners were taken, two of them
officers, one of whom was wounded.
The prisoners came from the

Of HOME
SPEEDS WAR WORK
Congress Hurries for
Midsummer Recess
MANY MEASURES UP
Budgets Carrying Unprecedented
Sums for Pushing Conflict to Be
Considered During Week.

Washington, June 16.-With the
end of this fiscal year only two
weeks distant, congress planned this
week to speed consideration of huge
war appropriations needed by July
1. With these measures out of the
way, members hoped to be able to
have a midsummer recess while the
house ways and means committee
drafts the war revenue bill, hearings
on which were expected to end
Thursday.
A mass of warbudgets carrying
unprecedented sums is before the
senate and house. The S3,000,000,-
900 sundry civil bill was expected
to be transmitted to the senate to-
morrow by the house, while the two
principal war bills, the $12,O00,000-
900 army supply measure, and the
$7,00O,000,000 fortifcation bill,
were expected to be reported dur
ing the week. The former is before
the senate military committee and
the latter before the house appro-
priations committee.
The house is expected to vote
early this week on important senate
amendments to the $1,600,000,00O
naval appropriation bill, including
that increasing the naval personnel
from $1,000 to 131,485, which is
strongly urged by Secretary Daniels.
Nationwide prohibition will be
agitated before the senate agricul-
ture committee which begins hear
ings tomorrow on an amendment to
the S11, 100000 emergency food bill
which would prohibit the use of any
foodstuffs in the manufacture of
beer and wines during the war and
bar the use of distilled spirits for
beverages.
