The big parade was fitting prelude TO

which seats 10000, was crowded to the
entrance, and it seemed as If there were

OF those waiting for the show To begin
was probably that they lacked -four or five
eyes each of having enough TO watch the
three rings, five stages, and the big track
to see everything that was going on--thc
feats of skill, daring and dexterlty sfmui-
taneously enacted by the circus folk, sing
" and in groups, and not miss the antics
of the big company of clowns capering
about on the sawdust, here, there and
everywhere.
Preceding the program in the rings and
on the stages, there was fascinating
quarter of an hour of pageantry, in which
practically the whole aggregation OF
circus people took part, including the
horses, elephants, canels. At the con-
clusion of the pageant, the rings and
stages will be alive with acts of all kinds
--tumbling, bouncing acrobats, trapeze
performers, tight rope walkers, perform
ing elephants, horses and dogs, bare back
riders, eontortionlsts-these and more
and more OF everything than was ever

a. M m.)-Announcement that the govern

the railroads as an emergency measure TO

received with approval today IN financial
circles. This was not reflected IN the
movement of prices at the opening OF the

Gains of to 2 points were made by

MARKET TURNS UPWARD.
Noon--Traders were disappointed at
the failure of the railroad shares to make
immediate response to the government $
action and exerted further pressure against
steels, equipments and motors.
The market turned, however, when oils
were again taken in hand and further up
ward progress was made as soon as rails
joined the movement. Investment,
transportations and secondary issues,
notably st. Paul, Rock Island and Mis-

Another factor of sentimental value

VILLA TO FIGHT ON
Continued from page /

An Interpreter acting between Villa,
and the correspondent when asked to dl-
rect n question to the rebel whether Villa
was present personally at the Columbus
raid. refused TO put the question. Villa
sympathizcrs have denied he personally
was present, while evidence presented by
persons at Columbus declared he was
there.
Villa shed tears during questioning
concerning General Felipe Angeles, who
was executed by Carranza forces at
chihuahua in November last, for rebellion
against the government.

ficient tactics to dispose my men so Ameri-
can lives and property would not be en-
dappered. Those who have studied the
situation know this to be true. The Car
ranzistas fred into El Paso as the excuse
for American troops to cross.
VILLA FAT BUT STRICTLY DRY.
Villa is fat and has not the litheness
and suppleness of his heyday, few years
back. He weighs more than two hundred
pounds and he keeps from adding weight
by exercising. Every morning he squats
nearly to the ground and rises repeating
the operation eighty times. That is for
his stomach. When this is completed he
runs for I5 minutes.
Villa does not drink and he extends
prohibition TO his men. Search for a bottle
of beer by visitor to his camp today was
futile and the visitor was informed that IN
every place he visited Villa had issued
orders no liquor or beer was TO be sold
while his men were about. The penalty
Villa set was hanging, they said. and he
always keeps his word, the liquor venders
said.
Yesterday Villa baptized twenty chill
dren of Mexicans living here abouts and
became the Godfather to them all.

II. s. LOAN TO MEXICO URGED:
NO HOPE SEEN IN REVOLT

Worcester. Mass, May 21.-An i'm
mediate loan TO Mexico was advocated ny
|. ]. Fox, professor of history at North
western University, ut the Clark tni-
versity conference on Mexico and the
Caribbean" today.
DIR. Cox, who was a member OF the
commission of 1918 to study conditions
throughout Mexico, said the problem there
was one of self help or self destruction.
"Carranza," he said. "espoused pro-
gram combining political privilege with
social regeneration but his material re-
sources were inadequate and his human
agents unequal TO the strain OF official re-
sponsibility.
"Once more 'watchful waiting Is our
policv. but it should not be without pur-
pose. Carranza failed for lack OF adequate
funds TO maintain his army and his public
servants His successor, once he has tully
established himself, must not be permitted
to fail for like reasons. An immediate
loan adequately safeguarded will insure
against such failure.
The ultimate solution of the Mexican
problem, however, he thought, was edu-
cation. in which Americans should help.
Francis r. Taylor, of Philadelphia,
chairman of the recent commission TO
visit friends missions in Mexico, found
the lack of educational facilities and Of
popular thrift, very serious, he had little
faith in the present revolution so far as It
promised any improvement IN conditions.
There is no distinctive idealism that
anv faction can claim that viii justify
violent interruption of the attempts now
under way to return to normal conditions,
he said.
There were evil elements in the Car
rama regime. = Many inconsistencies,
much graft and some personal characters
tics were repeatedly urged against him
and his administration, but hardly more
than we are accustomed to hear against
the Organization rule" in the cltles OF

optimistic today.
"The Senator will win if 1t comes to
fight in the convention" one Of them said,
MIR. SauIsbury's friends did not agree
with this sentiment, however, and they
were also manifesting spirit Of optimism.
The feeling today WAS that the effort
