MURGU|A PROTESTS
 LOYALTY PHYSICALLY

JUAREz. Mex, Nov. 7.-Chihuahua state is again excited over develop mcnts which have been taking place in Chihuahua City since last Friday, passengers who arrived on the delayed train tonight said. General Francisco Murguia openly defied the authority CT the federal government, deposed the governor. threw the acting governor in jail and ordered him executed after his loyalty to the central government had been questioned. A telegram was sent 10 President Carranza Friday. ques- tioning Murguia's loyalty. This mes sage was relayed to Murguia at Chi huahua City. He started an investi- gation which ended at the office of the secretary of state, Ramon Gcmez Sa- lag, late Friday, when Gomez Salaz was knocked down and beaten with a saher until he was unconscious. The secretary of state was then ordered placed in the penitentiary, awaiting execution on g charge of treason. Later he was pardoned by General Murguia and liberated Monday.
 In the meantime Governor Ignacio Enriquez learning Cf Murguia's ac- tions, officially sealed the state palace and left with his personal staff for the mountains, abandoning the state gov crnment to the military. General Mur- suia then sent messages to President Carranza proclaiming his loyalty and denying he had planned to renounce the federal government. He is still in command of the state and northeastern zone, in spite Cf CarranZa's orders for his transfer and relief by General Cas- tro.
 Mexican officials here tonight laugh cd at rumors in circulation in Fl Paso that General Murguia had revolted. joined Villa and had declared ChihUa- hua a free state, with himself at it's head. This was branded as ridiculous. They admitted. however, that Murguia and Enriquoz had broken and Enriquez had abandoned his office.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 7.-German industrialism is as much menace to world peace as German military au- tocracy, A. Mitchell Palmer, alien property custodian, said in an address here tonight. reviewing the work of his office in taking over and Americaniz- ing enemy owned property.
 The business built up by the Ger mans in the United States will be for ever lost to them, Mir. Palmer said. He added that mo other course would be compatible with the safety of Ameri- can institutions, for German autocracy is quite as apparent in its economic exploitation of the world as in it's gov ernmental and military domination of central Europe
 University Extension society of Phila- delphia, said the alien property custo- dian's office new has assumed control of nearly half billion dollars worth of enemy controlled CT owned prop erty.
 Germany must be made to under stand" he concluded, that her plan has failed in the industrial field as in the military. Industrial disarmament must come along with military disarm- ament. Autocracy in industry must fall with the fall of the Hohenzellern dy- nasty. The same peace which frees the world from the menace of the auto cratic militarism of the German empire should free it from the menace of its autocratic industrialism as we'll"

 FIX COTTON PRICE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-Fixing of prices on raw cotton is unnecessary and impracticable, President Wilson will be told by the cotton Investigating committee of the war industries board. This announcement was made tonight by pr. Thomas W. Page, chairman of the committee.
 The committees conclusion. Dr. Page said, was based on the fact that there is no prospective shortage of cotton and the belief that the cotton distribution committee can secure a proportionate marketing of the lower, as well as the higher grades of cotton more effectively by other methods. Continuance of the work of this com mittee is recommended.
 Dr. Pages statement was said to em- body the essential points of the report which the committee will present soon to the president. It is said that there would be no way of enforcing a fixed price except through the readiness of the government to purchase" the en- tire cotton crop. This, the statement continues, would involve the closing of cotton exchanges, while merchants, bankers and other intermediates would be seriously affected and many prob ably put entirely out of business. The establishment at great cost of a gov ernment system of inspection and cer- tification also would be necessary, it was said, if price fixing were under taken.

PRIEST, Nov. By the Associated Press) ).--In this, one of the former principal gateways to Austria Hun gary, there is much to throw light on the causes of the dual monarchys downfall Of first importance was the surprise and success of the attack along the Piave front by the Italian armies, a surprise to military and civilians
 Complete plans have been found here for occupation by Austro- Hungarian forces of Venice which was frustrated last June. Plans were also found of every warehouse. factory and store house in Italy. It was no secret that the invaders expected to take Italian territory as far south as Milan, as soon as the order for another offensive was received.
 One big factor in the disintegration of the empires political fabric was the diplomatic writings of President Will son, before the entry of the United States into the war. These were wide ly circulated and dozens of people have told the correspondent that MT. Will sons notes and speeches gave them an understanding of what d real de- mocracy was like, and encouraged their hopes for liberty.

35, instead of 100, so that there should be another reduction of 65.
 According to what purports to be complete returns to this paper from Cochise, the total majority for Colter there is S29, instead of S75, calling for another reduction of 46. These reduc- tions from the democratic figures would wipe out Colter's majority of 92 and leave a majority on that showing for Campbell of Ill, less whatever Golfers majority may be in Yavapai county. This is as much as anybody knew last night about the governor ship fight.
 Much Money on Result
 A good deal of money was put up on the result Many of the bets were even and several were made on demo- cratic propositions that Campbelrs majority would not exceed 50.
 Nothing came in regarding the vote for other candidates on the state ticket and it was assumed that the other democratic candidates had been elected.
 The returns from this county were complete as to governor and some oth- CT candidates, except for two precincts. Therepublcans2elected are Montgomery for sheriff and J. A. Moore for county school superintendent. Guy Vernon for supervisor was 70 behind c. W. Peterson.
 All the members of the republican legislative ticket were elected with the possible exception of w. J. Galbraith who was led late in the afternoon by James c. Goodwin by 30 votes. There were several precincts not heard from as to the legislative ticket. One was Peoria and another, East Chandler

CAMPBELL LEADERS INSIST. THEY HAVE WON BY Ell, BUT. GOLFER MEN SAY OTHERWISE

Both state party committees are claiming the election of their respective candidates for governor. The repub- lican organization last night claimed that the majority for Campbell wouldd be about 200. The democrats gave as surances that Colter was safe with a majority of something less than 100. The claims of the two parties are fairly represented in the following figures:

 Both sets of figures are subject to revision. In the first the majority for Campbell in this county is 2,79S, ac- cording to the figures of the republican county committee. If that is correct the democratic figures should be re- duced 93. According to a telegram re- ceived by The Republican from Ma Naio. Golfers majority there is only

 WARN PHOEN|Xb MINUTE BLAST

Irresponsible rumors to the effect that the armistice between the German and allied forces had been signed yes- tercay were excitedly passed from mouth to mouth on the streets of Phoenix and outlying cities throughout the county Confirmation of these rumors was not obtainable through authoritative channels and Phoenix was saved the embarrassment of a pre- mature celebration, in common with al- most every other city in the United States. Strong denial of the rumor was soon forthcoming by the Associat- ed Press, setting at rest the baseless stories that were agitating the people.
 Silent and boisterous knots of men and women gathered in public places and asked questions; thronged places where there might be some chance of securing accurate and official data keeping the Republican local and long distance telephones busy far into the night. AS rapidly as possible, the Re publican scattered the official denial of Secretary of State Robert Lansing
