Of the band were found in the

ELIAS COMEDIES
SON. ELECTION
TO GEN. TOPETE

NOGALES, May 9.-Declaring that
conteSting Of the Sonora gubernatorial
election would result only in unneces-
sary strife, Sr. Francisco Elias, defeated
candidate, has made known his inten-
tions of allowing General Fausto
Topete to take over the reins of state
government without friction.
Immediately following the final
count of votes in the election of last
month the statement was issued from
Elias headquarters that "a recount
would be demanded and that Sr. Elias
would not allow his defeat to go with
out a contest. 1t was even rumored
that Sonora would have dual govern
ment with Topete at Hermosillo, the
state capital, and Elias at Magdalena
or Nogales.
Considerable agitation resulted. The
statement for it was held that contest
ing of the election would end dlsas-
trously. as it would bring President
Calls, backing Elias, a first cousin
and General Alyaro Obregon, support
ing Topete, into the turmoil.
The Elias charges were irregularities
in the election and the voting of 14,00C
soldiers in Sonora in direct disobed-
ience to orders of the federal govern
ment.

Rolling Meat Shops

PARIS, May pa score of
butcher shops on wheels have been
put in operation by the chief of

high cost of meat.
These large carts have done a

underselling the regular markets. The
butchers object, but the authorities
are establishing more carts.
The final accounting, on which
the police will base future regulations
