Germans Cause
Revolution In
Guatemala
UNITED Press Service)

WASHINGTON, April 10 Ac-
cording to advices to Guatemalans
here, received from their home rep
ublic, the revolt of unionists against
President Cabrera was agitated by
Germans residing in that country, on
order to keep him from selling their
coffee plantations as enemy alien
property.
Guatemala was one of the Latin
American republics declaring war on
Germany. Following the lead Of the
United States Guatemala siezed, all
property of Germans residing in the
republican in Germany. Now that
the war is over the Germans have
precipitated a revolution to bring IN
to power a government that would
restore their plantations.
Diplomats here believe that Ca
brera, who has been president OF
Guatemala since 1898, will leave his
country and make his residence in
Havana or New Orleans.

Mr.. Rebollado, formerly first assist

far as the credentials of the Car

Mr.. Tamez, however, still holds the
consulate and archives, and is issuing
passports and placing his O. X. on
freight shipments. Mr.. Rebolledo,
has taken up quarters at the Bow
man Hotel, together with Mr.. Ar
redondo, the Mexican consul at Doug
las, who is here awaiting instructions
from Mexico City and the Mexican
embassy at Washington, as to what
move he shall make next.
Mr.. Arredondo received a telegram
yesterday from the embassy at Wash
ington stating that request had been
made of the state department for the
withdrawal of the eXequator of Mr..
Tamez.
Mr.. Tamez, however, does not re-
cognze this as final, but says that
he will turn over the consulate and
archives when notified by the state
department of the United States that
his exequator has been withdrawn.
In the meantime, he is also serving
as consular agent and special agent
for the Sonora government, which
has given formal notice that pass
ports issued or vised by the Carranza
consuls will not be recognized in that
state. Mr.. Tamez, will therefore con-
tinue to business at the same old
stand on Arroyo Boulevard, even
though he is compelled to turn ovef

When the of the application of the Caranza
government to bring troops through Arizona for the pu
pose of combating the Sonorans became known around
the streets yesterday afternoon business and ct
universal in expressing hope that the request
would be refused
Thishope was based in instance the ground that
the people of Nogales have any desire to take sides in
the difficulty between Sonora and the central govern
ment but solely the effect such would have
Nogales itself. To permit such thing, it pointed
out would be to invite battle in of our border towns
and would undoubtedly result in shots being fired into
American territory with probable loss of property and
perhaps life. Some people went far to sug
gest that train bearing Carranza troops should
be headed for Nogales deputation of citizens should
meet it at Calabasas and that it reached the
city.
When asked for an expression of opinion officials Of
the Sonora government, stated that such would
in their opinion be playing directly into their hands.
They pointed out the fact that international usage would
permit Mexican troops to pass through United States
territory while armed that they would have to go into
Sonora before getting their arms done the
casion when General Obregon permitted to bring
troops through this country for the defense of Aqua
Prieta They stated that they could wish for nothing
better than chance to get at the Carranza troops be-
tween the time they had crossed the international line
and the arming of them.
In any event, the decision Of the American depart
ent e war is being awaited with anxiety both sides
of the linz.

CHATHAM, WELL
KNOWN CITIZEN.
PASSED away

AT his home on West Street, yes
terday at 12:45 p. M, Hon. James J.

chosen profession, in which his latest

Judge Chatham was strong and
virile writer, a clear and effective
speaker; and his views, whether writ
ten or spoken, carried great weight
wherever presented. His death at
this time terminates a long and &C
tive career, and ends a life which
began II years and months ago on
the banks of the Wabash.
In his childhood his parents re-
moved from Indiana to Illinois, where
he grew to manhood, the cities of
Vandalia and Effingham being the
sites of their home
When twenty years of age he went
to Kansas, engaging there in farm
ing and afterward in newspaper work
at Olathe, holding there his first
public office-assistant constable and
assistant chief of police.
Leaving Olathe he went to Kansas

gave promise of the brilliant course
it has followed.
After several years in Kansas City
he located in Coffeyville, Kansas, es-
tablishing the Coffeyville Courier,
which he moved afterward to In
dependence, where it became daily.
While conducting that newspaper
Mr.. Chatham served in the Kansas
legislature.
Disposing of the Courier Mr.. Chat
ham went to Joplin, Mo-, and was
editor of the Press, a daily news
paper in the lead mining district.
He was identified also with the Re
publican at Galena, Mo-, and the
Globe at Cherryville, Kansas.
Coming to Arizona in 1880 the
gentleman served on the editorial
staff of the Tucson Star and Citizen,
and with the Tombstone Epitaph.
In 1887 Judge Chatham came to
Nogales, engaging in newspaper
work, publishing the Record, and
later the Sunday Herald, which lat
ter he conducted some time as
daily.
He served also as members of the
territorial legislature, and was post
master at Nogales some five years,
beside which he served three terms
as justice Of the peace in Nogales
precinct. Chatham was associated
with the Cananea Herald, at one
time; and later yet he was connected
with the Border Videttey "The Oasis,
the Daily Herald and the Santa Cruz
Patagonian.
In 1891 Mr.. Chatham married Miss
Lillian Chenoweth Of Nogales, sister
of Doctor W. F.. Chenoweth; and the
line city has been always the family
home. Beside the widow deceased is
survived by two sons and three
daughters, Messrs Jesse and Her
bert Chatham, with Misses Martha
Grace and Lucy Chatham. He was
member of several fraternal orders,
including Odd Fellows, Knights of
Pythias, Benevolent Protective Or
der of Elks, under the ritual of which
latter body the obsequies will be con-

WHAT UNCLE SAM.
GOT OUT OF THE WAR

The arrival in New York harbor OF
a German dreadnaught, a cruiser and
torpedo boat destroyers constituting
Americas share of the Kaiser's navy
directs attention to the shipping
gains and losses of the United States
in the world war.
Statistics in study of "Ameri-
cas- Merchant Marine" by the Bank
ers' Trust Company of New York, in
dicate that the losses totaled 343,-
090 gross tons of merchant shipping
from August, 1914, until the armis-
tice. Compared to the sea going ton
mage of over 100000 IONS repre-
sented by the 5000 vessels now COM
prising the American merchant ms
rine, the loss of 343,000 tons thru
enemy attack no longer seems large.
But this lost tonnage equaled the
total output of American shipyards
in 1914. 1t exceeds the tonnage built
in the United States in either 1916
or 1916. However, in 1917, respond
ing to world demand, American ship
building struck it's stride. Despite
the sinking of 71,OOO tons tnat yea,
and the loss of 159, 900 tons in other
ways, the increased output more than
made good these reductions. Ameri.
can ship production. in 1917, totaled
1,o34,2e6 tons.
