BUILDING BOOM STARTS

PHOENIX. June 10.-As if loosen. ed from a leash. builders are going forward with construction work by leaps and bounds. Evidences of a great building boom are everywhere visible.
 Restrained from activities for many months through a ruling of the war industries board. contractors are just now awakening to a new era of pro gression-a period of activity never before experienced in the history of the city.
 And withal. the greatest improve ments of the year have not yet been started. Many of the biggest real es tate deals in the history of the city are even now pending.

ts AWAirIMG ATTACK
 FL PASO. June 10.--Juarez. cut off iron eOmnunication with the balance of Mexico. had all the appearance of deserted village today. A large DOT tion of the civilian population had al. ready sought refuge in Fl Paso and the 2500 troops were either confined to barracks or on duty in the trenches and outer defenses of the city.
 From the roofs of tall buildings in Fl Pase men could be seen at work where the Mexican Northwestern crosses the Mexican Central railroad three or four miles out of the city. but whether these were federais or rebels could not be ascertained. Observers with field glasses could plainly see the soldiers is the trenches and around the block houses. apparently engaged in battle practice in anticipation of a;- tack.
 So far as is definitely known the nearest rebels are al Guadalupe. 30 miles east of Juarez. where General Felipe Angeles. Roman Vega and Mar tin Lopez have large force of caval- ". The country where the rebels are located is well watered with plenty of grazing for the horses. and it is believed the rebels are resting in preparation for the attack which even federal officials in .iuarez admit is inevitable. IL is also admitted that the rebels outnumber the available federals and that the latter are cut of from retreat in any direction save across the Rio Grande into the Uni ted States.

The first reports indicated tha, the entire force of Mexican customs officials were implicated. The amount of the shortage has not yet been determined. but reports today say that it will not be over $S5 5.O0e.

 An attempt ~as made today to get the port of Sasabe by telephone but the wires are down at some point he- tween Nogales and Sasabe. and so nothing definite is known by the Mex :ean officials at Nosaies.
 A mos; determined effort is being made To have Cashier Perez Unda ex. tradited to Mexico to answer the charge Of embezzlement.

Baltimore. Nd, Sept. 2. 1919.
To the Tobacco Growers Of Southern
Maryland:
Owing 20 the very unusual conditions
IN the tobacco warenousing facilities
here. all space Is now taxed about to the
limit. We, like the State Tobacco
warehouses. have been handicapped by
extraordinary lack Of shipments from
the wal ehouses, and we al are unable
20 warehouse tobacco as fast as &c ar
rives, necessitating embargoes until we
can ind relief by shipping.
Information has reached as that from
our letters ind pcrsonal solicitation re-
questing shipments of tobacco TO us.
that the impression has been formed
that we could obtain warehousing of
tobacco in the State Tobacco Ware
house notwithstanding the embargo
that has been issued. This was not in
tended and we desire to state that the
State Tobacco Warehouse has offered
every facility available for the storage
OF tobacco To its capacity without dis
examination TO any commission house or
shipper.
We are trying to hurry shipments
from our warehouse, and shall take care
Of our shippers as soon as we can make
shall find early relief.
Thanking yen for your patronage.
and requesting your further indulgence
We are, Very truly yours.
