HUNDREDS FLEE AS
 REBELS HOLD CITY
Business Men Seek Protection
 Of Marines In Honduras

NEW ORLEANS, La., March B. Business men of San Pedro, Sula, Hon. duras, have fled from the city and taken refuge at Puerto Cortes, where Ameri- can marines have been landed, accord ing to letter received in New Orleans from Honduras. The merchants, it was added, fled to the coast when they found it impossible to meet demands for money from the de factO govern ment. Fifty thousand dollars was de- manded week prior to the time the letter was written and the sum was raised by leyying upon foreign owned establishments.
 The writer. describing the fire last week at La Ceiba, one of the Honduran ports, said seven blocks of business buildings were burned. Most of the property was insured, but only a small amount will be recovered, because of a clause which released the insurance companies of responsibility for damage from revolution or it's consequences. The fire followed heavy fighting in the streets of the town.
 WASHINGTON, March 5.-Five hundred revolutionary followers of Juan Angel Arias, liberal candidate for the presidency of Honduras, occupied the city of Tela shortly before noon today. The occupation was effected wi . put fighting, opposition revolutiOnists sup porting the Carias candidacy having evacuated Sunday.

MEXICAN BANDITS RAID |. $. RANCH;
 AMERICANS FLEE
Rebel Leaders Believed Responsible For Large
 Cattle Raid

LANGTRY. Tex, March 5.-Mexi- can bandits numbering 150 crossed the Rio Grande into American territory near here Wednesday, stole a large number of horses, cattle and supplies, and fled back into Mexico.
 Many Americans in the Mexican dis tricts opposite Lantry are fleeing to- ward the border, and fear is expressed by officials of the Southern Pacific railroad for United States citizens still remaining on the ranches of the north ern Mexican interior.
 A day and night guard is being maintained at the great. trestle near Langtry, according to Southern Pa cjfie offials. who assert that Americans are crossing the border in droyes in the Del Rio-Langtry region.
 A thorough investigation has revealed that two rebel leaders, General Emilio Rodriguez and Lieutenant Colonel Tis. ga, have visited general merchandise stores in Langtry recently, making heavy purchases of supplies and then departing for the interior of Mexico. Whether they were involved in the raid is not known.
 Early Wednesday morning nine heav- fly armed Mexican bandits raided the San Miguel ranch in Mexico, near Del Rio, Tex. captured four Mexican ranch hands and carried them into the in terior.
 The leader of the bandits served no. tice upon the ranch foreman that he would return in n day or so for ran som of $2,000 and if said ransom was not forthcoming, he would destroy the ranch property.
 The San Miguel ranch consists of S40,000 acres of land with large build- ings and stock valued at over $400, ,000 The entire ranch value is estimated at nearly $2,00O,000.
 Langtry, Tex, is one of the most pie turesque towns on the international boundary. The Southern Pacific crosses the Pecos river on an immense trestle over 800 feet high aud several hun dred feet in length.
 Langtry is famous in western his tory as the home of Justice Roy Bean of early days, whose droll decisions are masterpieces of western history and whose ancient courthouse shack is in sight of the Southern Pacific, with the original sign on it reading office of Justice Roy Bean, jurisdiction all ter ritory west of the Pecos to the Pa cific."

'.wASHINGTON, March 5.-The
 klabama Power company shot it's bolt
 his afternoon in the House when Rep |esentative Theodore Burton of Ohio )elivered his one-hour address. It was
 masterful presentation of the views if the Alabama Power company, and Included all the old and stale arguments $mployed during the last two years by he opponents of the Henry Ford offer Tor Muscle Shoals.
 The adherents of the Ford offer 'naAe no attempt fe answer tho speech
 d Mir. Burton. They did not regard 't as necessary. Two AIabamians 5poke, however. They were Represcn- 3a&ives Lister Hill of the Second and |N. B. Oliver of the Sixth district. The sensation of the day was af. |orded by Representative James of Mich 'san, who, in espousing the Ford offer, Addressed himself in a terrific arraign- 'nent against Representative Hull of Iowa, spokesman of the Alabama Power fompany. James alleged that only n $hort time ago no man in Congress was 3nore ardent in his efforts to please the Farmers than Hull, and now no man <vas more determined. to work against Shem. He made no direct, unequivocal khafses, but his insinuation as to the &ause of the defection of Hull was un- znistakahle.
 Tine debate has advanced 50 rapidly Rn account of the strategy of the Ford &dherents not unnecessarily to delay Through political speeches, that there Hs a possibility that the vote will be Taken Thursday afternoon. In the de- bate, the Ford cause has prospered ob- $ippsly, while that of the Alabama
 Power company has withered and de- &ayed. The result is fore-ordained. The Me
 xsnsie bill, involving the Ford offer. zrill be put across by handsome maY
 ority. This is the impression of prac- ficaily every democrat.
