MANY SLAIN AS
MEXICAN TROOPS
BATTLE REBELS
Government Denies Re-
port Revolt is Spreading
in Southern Section.
BY A. w. TOLGER
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

MEXICO CITY. Jan. 12.-Fur-
ther rebellious depredations and
acts of banditry were reported to-
day in various parts of the Re-
public, indicating that other names
would soon be added to the list of
81 killed in such disorders which
has just been made public by the
government.
Federal troops today were in
control of the villages of Arandas
Tototlan and Cocula, which rebels
held momentarily after attack
upon these defenseless communities.
1t was reported that the Federals
had killed several persons and had
taken many prisoners in the cap
lures.
Bands of rebels at Tequila, be
tween Arenal and Amititlan, burned
bridges of the Southern Pacific
railroad and committed other de
predations until the appearance of
Federal troops when they fled.
Despite increasing reports that
revolutionary activities are spread
ing a volume and tensity through
out militant Mexican states, Gen
cral Alvarez today maintained that
the government was well able to
cope with the situation.
Eighteen Federal soldiers lost
their lives in the engagements, the
general said. He blamed the up
risings which were said to be with
out definite and centralized leader
shin to opposition to religious laws.
The governmental confirmation
of the killings, coupled with reports
of armed Catholic revolts in three
Mexican states indicates i'll many
quarters that the religious situation
has reached its most serious crisis
since the promulgation of the gov
ernmental religious laws last July.
While ignoring the arrest and re-
ported expulsion from the country
of Bishop Pascual Diaz, spokesman
for the Catholic Episcopate, Alva-
rez laid the blame for the smoldrr-
ing unrest to the Episcopate.
Reports of sporadic clashes be-
tween rebels and federals continued
to reach the capital from the states
of Michoacan, Jalisco and Durango,
but officials believed most Of the
fighting was caused by isolated
bands OF insurrectionists who lack
ed cohesive effort.

DECISION
ACQ()|TS
PLAYERS
Landis Turns Down Yarn
Told BY Risberg and
Gandil.
FINDS NO BRIBERY
Money Raised Used For
Rewarding Men and Not
For Throwing Game.

CHICAGO, Jan. II. --Twenty-onc
baseball players accused of graft III
connection with a series of games
between Chicago and Detroit in 1917
were found not guilty today by
Judge X. NJ. Lands, high commits
sioner of baseball.
Judge lands decision, handed
out after careful consideration of
evidence presented by the two ac-
cusing ball players. Charles 'Swede
Risberg and Arnold "Chick' Gan
dill, and some 81 other players who
denied the charges, was given out
at his office as promised shortly
before 10 a. m.
"It is the finding Of the commits
sion,' Judge Lands report said,
THAT the fund raised by the Chi
cago players about September 8,
1917, was not collected or paid to
the Detroit players for sloughing'
to Chicago the games of September
and 3. 1917, but was paid because
Of Detroit beating Boston; that
there was no sloughing' Of the
September or games in 1917, nor
the September 26, 81 and % games
in 1919, except by Risberg and Gam
dill
The judges decision indicated
that he took the word of such ball
players as Eddie Collins, Ray
Schalk and DOME Bush, as against
that of Risberg and Gandil, who
were ousted from baseball after a.
legged throwing of the 1919 world s
series.
The testimony of Bill James, for
mer Detroit pitcher, that he was
paid the "pot" as bonus for
beating the Boston club and that he
divided it among the battery men
of the team, was taken as the de-
cisivc bit of evidence that the base
ball stars accused were not guilty.
James followed Gandil on the
witness stand and denied all charges
except that he had been paid money.
James said the money was a reward
for beating Boston.

Hearing Held by Senate

Relations.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA di.
rect charge that Bolshevists were un-
dertaking "the destruction Of what
they term American Imperialism
in Mexico and Latin America was
made by Secretary Of State Kellogg
in statement submitted to the
senate foreign relations committee
today.
The "Bolshevik leaders have had
very definite ideas with respect to
the role which Mexico and Latin
America are to play in their general
program of revolution,' Kellogg
said.
''They have set up as one of their
fundamental tasks the destruction
of what they term American Imper-
ialism as necessary prerequisite
to the successful development of the
international revolutionary move
ment in the new world,'' Kellogg
said in the statement submitted to
the senate foreign relations commit
, tee in executive session but later
made public.
"The propagation OF Communist
ideas and principles in the various
countries of Latin America is con-
sidercd secondary to the carrying
of propaganda against the aims and
policies of the United States.
.'Thus Latin America aud Mexico
are conceived as a base for activi-
ties against the United States.
Communists in the United
States have been repeatedly in
structed to devote special attention
to the struggle against American
Imperialism in Latin America and
the United States. -rs---s.
Kellogg for three hours defended
before the committee his drastic
policy in sending marines and war.
ships to Nicaragua. Unusual pre-
cautions were taken to keep any
testimony but that embodied in the
statement from being made public.
Kellogg's opponents on the COM
mittee maintained opposition to
the policy despite the secretary s ~x-
plantations.

LARGE AUDIENCE
DISAPPOINTED BY
RUSSIAN CHORUS
Local Organization Plans
Suit For Damages
Against Singers.

Steps were today being taken by
the FL Centre Music and Arts AS
sociatiom to collect damages for the
non-appearance of the Ukrainian
National chorus, booked to present
a program at the Palace theater last
night.
Strong censurc of the chorus
manager, the booking agency and
the agency's advance representa-
tive, will be sent to headquarters OF
the organizations concerned and ad
vice sent to other cities where the
chorus is booked to appear that it is
advisable. to collect an advance de
post from the Ukrainians to insure
their appearance.
Financial reimbursement of the
association for the rental of the Pal
ace theater and other expenses in
cured will be claimed through an
attorney representing the Ell Centre
Music and Arts association.
Before one of the largest crowds
ever assembled in Imperial Valley
for a musical event and which taxed
the Palace theater almost to capac
ity, Mrs. Bryce Smith, agent OF
the western division Of the
Woolfshon Concert Bureau OF
New York City, last night admitted
her inability to fulfill the contract
which she had signed with the loca
association.
According to information obtain
ed by the association today, the
chorus left San Bernardino at
late hour yesterday bound for Los
Angeles.
Due to the strong feeling of 10y
atty to the FL Centre Music anC
Arts association, which is receiving
the support of representative resi-
dents from all parts Of the valley
the announcement that the Ukraln
ian chorus had not arrived on the
afternoon train from San Bernar
dino, was courteOusly received by
the audience at the theater. Appear
ing with Mrs. Smith on the stage
was Madame Katherine Ward kupe
liam, one of the leading workers OF
the association, who gamely ex
planned the situation and asked fol
the continued support of the associa
tion by all present.
That another excellent musica
attraction, for which the association
has been conducting negotiations
with L. B. Behymer, Los Angeles
music impresario, will be given IL
two weeks, was announced by Ma
dame Kupelian. A request that al
those who wished to lend their sup
port to the association hold theil
seat stubs for last nights program
which will be accepted as payment
for tickets for the next event, wat
made. Any not caring to retain
their tickets may have their money
refunded at the Valley Drug store
Madame Kupelian announced.
While many expressions of regret
at the. failure of last nights pro
gram have been heard by the
Press, the general sentiment of those
attending seems to be that Of sym
pathy for the associations hard
luck, and an increasingly strong sup
port of its efforts to bring the best
Of attractions to Imperial Valley.

Find Mans Body in
|Winterhaven Canal

The body of an unidentified white
man was found floating about IN
the svphon at Winterhaven late
yesterday afternoon by workmen
The body had been in the water for
about 10 days, it is believed. a
thorough examination by Coroner
B. f. Lemons has failed TO reveal
any marks about the body to indi-
cate foul play and it is thought that
death was due to drowning, either
intentional or accidental.
Coroner Lemons was summoned
by Deputy Sheriff Freeman. He
held an inquest Immediately and a
thorough investigation was conduct
cd. The witnesses in this were c.
j. Wilson, Frank Beckett, John G.
Moore, J. T. Dalton and c. B. Tru-
man.
The body was then removed to
FL Centre and further efforts to
identify the man were made but all
proved futile. The body was that OF
II man about As years Of age, 5
feet 9 inches tall. He had grayish
hair and the front teeth were un-
even. One tooth was missing on
the left side. A corn cob pipe with
a cherry stem was found in one of
the pockets. The man had 35 cents
in silver and S. in currency in his
pockets.
The coroner is anxious to identify
the man if possible through the de-
scription. A number OF men have
been reported missing in this vi
cinity but as far as can be deter
mined the syphon victim fails to
fit the descriptions of any of the
missing men.

ACTION OF TEXAS
OFFICERS FAXES
SHERIFF CILLETT
Second Prisoner Captur-
ed at PecOs in Year OBJ
tainS Freedom.

Although the long arm of the
law reached out 500 miles to unseat
\. T. Lindslev from an automobile
which he is alleged to have stolen
from j. A. Phillips in Holtvillc last
Friday, its fingers slipped and Lind
sley is now enjoying freedom some
where in the ncighborhood of Pccos,
Texas. Lindslev is believed TO
have escaped from Bud Hart, a dep
uty sheriff, while being switched
from one Jail to another.
Sheriff Gillett received wire
from Pecos Tuesday morning stating
that Lindsey had been picked up
late Monday. Wednesday morning
another wire was received notifying
the sheriff of Lindsley's escape.
FL Centre authorities are mysti,
fled by the strangeness of the wire.
They also recall the fact that last
November the Pecos police arrested
Eugene Mccall, wanted here for a
car inert, 'D'u tndt McNall also eS-
capped before action could be taken.
The wire which puzzles the author
tiles notifies the sheriff of the es-
cape, then goes on to explain that
the Pecos officials are sure he can
be recaptured if a reward is offered
At the time Mccall was arrested
in Pecos, two companions were pick
ed up with him. These men were
liberated by the Pecos police despite
wire sent by Sheriff Gillett asking
that they be detained and informing
the sheriff at Pccos that warrants
for their arrests had been issued.
1t is possible that the sheriff will
ask that an investigation into the
case be made by federal authorities.
