TRAIN ROBBERY BALKED
BY MILITARY GUARD
Mexican Bandits Quit Fight, Due,
It Is Believed, Lack
Of Ammunition.
By ths Associated Press.


MEXICO CITY, April 13.-Scarcity
Of ammunition is believed TO have pre-
vented a rebel band of 100 from rob-
bing passengers on a Laredo-Nexico
City train when it was attacked Mon
day night.
Commanded by Juan Mendoza, Ger
man Pichardo and Dionisio Aguilar,
the band tore up the rails and forced
the engineer to stop at Rinconeillo
Canyon, between Comonfort and San
Miguel AIlende. A representative of
the newspaper FL Universal, who was
on the train, told how, when the rebels
were prevented from approaching by
the military escort firing on them,
they began showering the coaches
with heavy rocks from both sides of
the canyon and returned the fire of
the soldiers. After an hours fighting
the rebels, apparently out Of ammuni-
ton, withdrew.
The din of rocks falling on the roofs
OF the coaches in the darkness added
TO the panic of passengers, three of
whom We're injured when a heavy
rock crashed through a second-class
coach roof.

INDIANA "BACKWOODs"
 UNCHANGED IN CENTURY

INDIANAPOLIS, March 19. P)- Indiana is rapidly becoming an in- dustrial commonwealth, but within an hours ride of the Hoosier capital the traveller may encounter con- munity almost as primitive as when the state belonged to the northwest territory.
 Log cabins, ancient we'll sweeps and horse drawn vehicles typify the mode of life in Brown countys wood ed hills Except for one railroad which cuts across a corner of the county and state highway which intersects it, the region is much the same as when Van Buren was presi dent.
 And it's history runs farther back than that, for an abandoned grave yard at Nashville, inland county seat, contains blackened and fallen head stones recording deaths as early as 1S37 Until lately the only jail in the county was two-story log structure built in 1888.

NUMBER IF CITIZENS
 FROM ELKHART COMING

For two weeks a mineral collection which Moose" Johnson, Chu1itna min- ing man who recently passed through Seward en route to his property, had on display in his old home town, Elk hart, Kansas, attracted throngs and of especial interest was the small flask of gold dust and nuggets. He also had a variety of Alaskan vege- tables and caribou horns. These likewise were viewed with consider able interest.
 As a result of his "boosting' Alas kan spirit several men became very much interested in the Territory and four of them informed him they were coming up in May for the purpose of prospecting or becoming associated with development work. Another par ty, MT. and Mrs. Dan Walsh, talked over the possibilities of making an extended hunting trip, and had fully decided to visit Alaska this year. Rayon Drury, Ford agent in Elkhart, was another who stated he was com ing in May. He will look about for an island on which to start a fur farm.

 Seward has neither a sample a prospectus. There thousands of tourists and other visitors coming to Alaska during the approaching summer. Here is fine field of prospects, and the who gets to them with something of merit will find customer here and there if not everywhere.
 The best medium through which Seward can reach prospective investors in the natural resources of this mediate and tributary vicinity is survey of natural sources, compiled in neat volume which be placed into the hands of every visitor to read and digest at his her leisure.
 These resources are here but even the average man in the street could not give prospective investor curate statement of what is actually opportunity for employing his dollars This information authenticated by responsible body like the Chamber of Commerce the City Council would carry punch and convince the visitor that there something worth Investigating. Generai ties do not suffce what the with investing capital desires is hard cold facts and details.

To be more specific, he decided to

Now Henderson is a man OF
some resolve and had a good job
writing advertisements until he
became i'll few weeks ago, he told
police.
Without funds, he left his ROOM

At last he decided on the coun-

quiet"
This shopping rush doesn't
leave a man space to park on the
sidewalk and besides it got awful
cold" he explained in city Jail.
So Monday he set to work and
after a half days labor his efforts
were rewarded. He told his story
to Judge Paul G. Wetter in
municipal court one and drew SIS

Here's the story:
"First 1 went into Goldstein's,
146 E. Washington ST., and locat-
ing the man I thought was floor
walker I stood right in front of
him and began taking things. 1t
was of no use. He walked away,
so I got disguised and quit.
Then I went to the New York
Store, Is E. Washington st. and
started working there. 1t took an
hour and half before they finally
came around and had me ar
rested"

FOR
BALL PARK IS
WITHDRAWN
Opposition of Residents on
East Side Results in
Clubs Decision.
OTHER SITES IN MIND
Three Tracts Considered by
President Perry for
Building Purposes.

Intense opposition OF citizens OF
the neighborhood resulted today in
withdrawal of the petition Of the
Indianapolis Baseball Club for per-
mission to construct new ball park
on f. Washington st.
The park was to be bounded by E.
Washington and New York Sts., and
Keystone and Tacoma AYES. Petition
had been set for hearing today be-
fore the Indianapolis board of
coming appeals.
Opposition to the new park
seemed so unanimous that James
Perry, president and owner of the
club, decided that 1t was useless to
proceed" William Clauer. secretary
of the organization, declared in an
nouncing the ptition's withdrawal.
I'VE have several other sites in
mind, but are not ready to announce
their definite location. We need a
new park and are going to build 1t.
Too much advertising hurt our last
plan, so this time we are not going
to shoot until we are ready. Some
of the options on the E. Washing
ton st. location had expired.
Three sites that we have definite
ly in mind include two on the north
side and one ON the west. We also
are considering another east side
site, but will not announce our plans
until we are ready to file the petit

WATSON MEETS AIDS
Updike, Rowbottom Not at
Delegation Farley.

BIZ IfmcS SDecfdL
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. - Con-
gressional circles were wondering
today why Representatives Ralph
Updike Of Indianapolis and Harry
Rowbottom of Evansville did not at
tend the session of the Indiana con-
gressional delegation here Monday
night with Senator James E. Wat
son.
Updike and Rowbottom have been
under somewhat of cloud since
they we're mentioned in reports Of
special Marion County prosecutors
as among those who had entered
into patronage contracts with D. G.
Stephenson when the ex-Klan lead
er was in power.
The congressman discussed likely
Republican candidates for the next
State election and means to end the
"party's embarrassment" in Indiana.
Many urged that Frank G. Ball of
Muncie would be the best candidate
for Governor. It was decided Sem
ator Watson should feel out Ball
when he returns to Indiana for the
holidays.
The congressional delegation also
favored postponement of election of
a State chairman to succeed Clyde
A. Walb until May, when the State
convention meets.

Department would cost a million
dollars, Representative Britten told
the disciplined Admiral today when
he appeared before the House Naval
Affairs Committee for questioning
on his charges Of extravaganza and
ineficiency.
Pressing Magruder very closely.
Britten declared he has failed to
present figures to back I'D his
charges, though he has entered the
"limelight" as a naval expert"
through his magazine article.
Magruder insisted he could pre-
pare figures and could get state
ments from other high officers who
have indicated they agreed with
him regarding certain changes he
advocates.
"You always tell us you are going
to get the figures the next day."
Britten said. II thought a great
many high ranking naval officers
agreed with you, but you seem to
stand alone. We do not want gen.
eral information. We want specific
facts"
Instead Of presenting the COM
n1ittee with concrete, well-digested
suggestions for economy, Magruder
was completely unprepared and
talked generally at random" Brit
ten said.
