Army of 100000
and Three Years Needed
to Quell Mexico

Washington, Nov. 21.-State De-
partment officials in discussing the
Mexican situation to-day disclosed
that three years ago the army gem
eral staff estimated that an army
or 45O,O men and three years
would be required for complete in
tervention in Mexico by the United
States.
Officials did not say what the
present estimate of the general staff
was, but it was understood to be
less than that prepared before the
World War, due to the development
or new instruments of warfare and
an enormous increase in American
war materials Of all kinds, particu-
larly motorized transports, airplanes
and artillery.
Discussing the case of William o.
Jenkins, American consular agent at
Puebla. who was rearrested last
Tuesday on charges in connection
with his abduction by bandits, off,
cials said because of the Mexican
governments laxity in trying to put
down the revolution, it had failed to
give proper protection to Jenkins
and that consequently he might have
ground for claim against the Mex
lean government for the ransom
money paid to his captors.

Anti-Railroad Strike
Bill to Be Pushed at

Washington, d. c., Nov. 21.-The
House Railroad bill, considered in
committee for several months and

gram OF reconstruction legislation.

ate.
In moving that railroad legislation

cember 1. Senator Cummins did 40
with the intention of presenting the
Dill which bears his name and which
has been favorably reported by the

mittee and of focusing the entire
thomght of the Senate upon that bin

The bill as completed by Senate
action will then be made a substi-
tute for the entire House BILL with
the exception of the enacting clause
ana Will go to conference in that
form, there to be whipped into shape
IL possible.
The difference between the two
measures are so radical in many i'm
portant particulars that prolonged
conslderationN conference is cer-
tain with a possibility that the two
branches OF Congress will lock horns
for an indefinite period. In the event
that President Wilson ends Federal
control in January, Congress almost
certainly will be forced to enact
interim legislation to bridge the gan
between the end of Federal control
ana the outlining OF n legislative
policy for continued private opera
tion.

COUNTY PLANS
REBUILDING OF
MANY BRIDGES
Plans to Be! Drawn For Action
Early in Spring; Must
Garry Heavy Loads

Plans for rebuilding a number of
county bridges are being considered
by the County Commissioners, so
that reports of viewers can be sub
mitted to grand juries at the Janu-
airy and March quarter sessions
courts and work started early in the
spring.
Many of the bridges in the county,
while in good condition, should be
replaced, the commissioners said. A
recent law allows auto trucks
weighing a maximum of thirteen
tons to travel on the highways and
some of the bridges probably would
not be strong enough for constant
heavy traffic.
Among the bridges which may be
rebuilt next year are: One over
Bear creek, in Wiconisco township;
Reading railway tracks at the Boyd
station just south of the highway
between Harrisburg and Hummels-
town; two bridges between Dauphin
and Lancaster counties, one at Bev-
erly and the other at Bellaire; an in
tercounty bridge on the State high
way crossing Conewago creek; two.
bridges over Deep creek, in LykenA
township.
1t is also the plan OF the County
Commissioners to ask for bids for
the construction of a new bridge
over Manada creek, at Sand Beach.
so that work can be started there
early in the year.

Court to Decide on
Mumma's Demand For
1O-Cent Dog License Fee

Twenty-six cases have been listed
for the session of argument court
to be held next Tuesday, making one
of the largest lists to be- disposed
of in months. Two cases of Hard
scrabble proceedings will be argued,
the question for the court to decide
being whether the city has the right
to assess benefits against property
owners on the east side of North
Front street, for proposed improve
ments to the west side.
Another case which will be sub
mitted to the court is that of the
action between County Treasurer
Mark Mumma and the county COM
missioners. Mr.. Mumma claims he
should be paid ten cents for each
dog license he issued last year in
addition to his salary provided by
law. The county commissioners
contend his salary is for all services
to the county. The court will be
asked to settle the case on the facts
submitted in briefs.
Motions for new trials will be
argued in q number of other cases
and q motion to enter a verdict of
acquittal in favor of Charles H.
Mauk. an undertaken convicted of
false pretense, will be disposed of.

$4,000 in Loot Is
Recovered When Arrests
Break Up Robber Band

Detroit, Nov. 81. - Jewelry, cloth
ing and silverware, said to total up
ward of $4,000 in value, stolen in
long series of burglaries, was re-
covered last night. the police an
nounced to-day, with the arrest OF
seven men who. the authorities de-
clare, are members of gang of New
York gunner.
According to detectives one of the
men in custody confessed to forty
house robberies here and a large
number in Cleveland. The loot, it
is stated, was found in an east side
tailor shop operated by Hine Rosen,
one of those arrested. The others
under arrest gave their names as
Joseph Miller, Leo Levy, Benjamin
Klein, George Lewis, Robert Con-
pardi. and Joseph Kinchiner, all of
New York.
The arrest of the men, the police
declared, frustrated a plan they had
conceived to aid their alleged leader
William Jack" Shapiro, held in the
county Jail on burglary charge,
to shoot his way to freedom last
night. The gang, the police allege,
originally intended to gather only
enough loot to raise funds to meet
Shapiro's bail bonds. The plan later
was abandoned and a Jail delivery
decided upon.

FEAR A DEMONSTRATION
Bandit Leader Reported Gath
ering His Forces For New
Series of Outrages

FL Paso, Texas, Nov. 21.-General
Felipe Angeles. chief lieutenant OF
Francisco villa. and famous artillery
expert, captured last Wednesday by
Mexican Federal forces under Gen
eral Gabino Olive, near Vale Olivia,
faced trial by court-martial to-day in
Chihuahua City, Mexico. The trial
is considered by Mexican authorities
as the most important held in that
country during a decade of revolu-
ton and banditry.
Reports in circulation along the
border to-day were General Angeles
would be accused of rebellion against
his government and that the death
penalty would be asked. Many Car
rama officials were said to favor this
disposition of the case as n warn
ing to all rebel chieftains. Short
ness of time between his capture and
the date set for the trial was point
ed to as indicating the possible fate
in store for General Angeles.
Revolution Will Follow
Conjecture was rife as to the ef-
feet of the trial. Some authorities
in Ell Paso believed his execution
would be disastrous to the CarranZa
government in that new revolution
AIRY movement might follow
Villa sympathizers. here to-day
were outspoken in the opinion that
the bandit leader would make some
demonstration over the captufe of
his chief lieutenant. Villa was re-
ported in the broken country south
east of Ojinaga, Chihuahua, on the
the international boundary, gather

Reputed Inventor of as
General Angeles was a graduate
of Chapultepec, the military West
Point of Mexico. He was sent to
Europe on military missions by
President Diaz and attended French
artillery schools. He is the au-
thor of several military textbooks
that are used in European and New
World military schools, and reputed
inventor of the French rs MILNE
ter gun. He was decorated with the
Legion of Honor by the French gov
ernment for his work.
Against Border Attacks
Angeles cast his lot with the Ma
dero revolution while still in Europe.
He returned to be commander of
Chapultepec. When Madero was
assassinated Angeles was imprison-
ed, but was released by Huerta and
then banished. When Carranza and
Villa parted. Angeles, who had join
ed them, cast his lot with Villa. He
abandoned the latter after Villas
raid on Columbus, n. NJ, which An
geles refused to countenance. An
geles then became an inspector of
munitions for the French. He again
returned to Villa early this year
when the latter issued a manifesto
that he was done killing Ameri-
cans" Angeles again advised the
bandit leader against border dem
onstration when Villa decided to at
tack Juarez this year. In this attack
Villa was defeated when American
troops crossed the boundary after
shots had been fired into Ell Paso. |
