one of the subjects to be taken up a,

one OF the subjects to be taken up at
the present extra session of the Mexi-
can Congress, according to the call
issued by the Executive.
Friends of Carranza, the advices
state, have urged upon him to reestab-
lish the banking system perfected by
Ives Limantour under the regime Of
Don Porfirio Diaz, with certain amend
ments. This may be done, but it is
believed Carranza has in mind radical
changes from the Limantour system
system. The invitation extended by
resident Carranza to Limantour to re-
turn to Mexico and resume his former
position in the affairs Of the republic
indicates to some that Carranza has
reached the point where he is willing
to take the advice of an expert on
finance after several rebuffs from for
ign bankers.
Gel Universal" is urging upon the
resident the wisdom of accepting the
advice of the foreign bankers because,
it says: "a sound banking credit
would, no doubt, contribute to rapid
development of national trade and ma
tional industry. At this moment, when
the eyes of the world are fixed on the
Mexican Congress, the realization Of
this truth may be of incalculable bene-
fit to the immediate future of the
country"
During the revolutionary period the
thirty state banks of issue established
under the Limantour regime have
either been wrecked, looted or confis-
Gated. In the legislation proposed by
Carranza it is not proposed to resstab-
llsh those banks as banks of issue,
that privilege to be the sole right of

Frees Prisoners, Tells

Ell PAso, Tex, May 12.--According
to information received here from
Parral to-day, Francisco Villa retook
that city Thursday and made prisoners
of the garrison of 260 men under Colo
mel Gomez, who had occupied the town
but two days before.
The garrison was outnumbered and
made little resistance. Repeating his
actio nwhen he took Parral on Easter
Sunday, Villa freed the prisoners and
told them to go to work. Casualties
were light on both sides.
Colonel Gomez, commander of the
garrison, escaped during the engage
ment. Villa commanded the attack in
person. The exact number of men in
his command is not known.

today by B. F. Steinel. Milwaukee

Too Much War Tax.
Mr.. Steinel said that Il is entirely
out Of the question for q promoter
in France 20 pay any such percentage
and he figures that a 100000 gate
would have TO be taken in before
there would be any profit There are
several taxes TO pay by a French pro-
moter- First. there is the war tax on
amusements which amounts to 10 per
cent Then comes the 10 percent poor
tax, which goes TO a fund for indi-
gents, and Thirdly II is the custom In
France TO give 10 percent OF the en-
tire receipts TO the newspapers IN
lieu Of advertising. OF course in big
contest. like the Dempsey
MILL the newspaper percentage would
undoubtedly be cut down 70 5 percent,
he said
Thus the promoter would have 70
percent 70 work with. Out Of this
Dempsey would demand two-thirds OF
the money. leaving - percent TO pay

penses,' said Mr.. Steinel.
