Dempsey will be the attitude of the

many people think that he should

American did. A number of bets are
being posted, according to local fight
fans. but most of them are on the

he had the short end of a l to bet

Cheap Corned Beef to be Thrown

is where the homeless habitue of
public eating places will take heart)
Every wholesaler, caterer, hotel,
restaurant, can and should share
in and extend in every possible man
ner the common benefits OF this
event" Apparently, Secretary Baker
has all the Polish bonds he wants
for he insists that these goods are
for home consumption only.
A concluding paragraph leads one
to suspect that the secretary does
not assume that pure disinterested
public spiritedness will prevail in
all the channels of distribution. This
is Bakers bait for dealers:
"Because Of the wide publicity
to be given to the prices at which
the government will sell these
meats, the American people will at
once recognize and appreciate the
spirit of cooperation to lower the
living costs rendered by every re-
taller who participates in the dis.
tribution of these commodities. The
immense benefits which will accrue
to him cannot be measured in dol

Following Villas agreement to surrender the De La

under control Of the federal authorities for the first
time since the downfall Of the Diaz regime.
Villa, having accepted all the conditions Of surren

his men are mobilzed.
Amusing stories told of the negotiations between
Villa and General Martinez preliminary to the sur
render They walked arm in in most friendly
manner around the plaza at Sabinas discussing the
terms Of surrender, while each kept hand on
his revolver
It is reported Villa has been promised his will
be given every opportunity to get work and will re-

Tt has been suggested in foreign diplomatic circles
that after Villa is stripped of his power the United
States and Britain ask Mexico to punish him for his
crimes against foreigners.
