AMERICAN WOMEN
SASABE HERO|NES
Three Cross Border After
Battle to Attend Wounded
MexiCanS.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TUCSON, AriZ., April 20.-Three
American women were hailed today as
the heroines of the battle Of Sasabe
(Mesquite), Sonora, in which about 20
Mexican rebels were killed and wounded
in an unsuccessful attempt to repulse
an attack by 1876 federal soldiers.
The women, Mrs. Arthur Hardgrave,
wife Of the former president of the
Kansas City Chamber of Commerce;
Mrs. A. Hardy, wife of San Fernando,
Ariz, physician, and Mrs. James H.
Jones. guest of Mrs. Hardy, crossed
the border into Sasabe after the battle
yesterday and attended and cheered the
wounded fighters.
Eighteen of the rebels. commanded
by Lieut.. Encarnacio Rojas, fled to
American soil to escape capture by the
federals and were held for internment.
The rebels said between 80 and 40 Of
their comrades had been taken prisoners
by the loyal troops.
The fight began at dawn, when the
federals advanced upon 30 rebels en-
trenched at SaSabe In two hours the
town was in federal hands.
Federal accounts of the casualties
and captured varied somewhat from
those of the rebels Loyal soldiers said
8 rebels had been killed and 10 wounded,
as against federal dead and 5 wound
ed. The federals said they had cap
tured 6 rebels and had taken IS horses,
truck, rifles and 1900 rounds Of am
munition.
Sasabe and Mesquite are one and the
same town, the latter name being gen.
orally used by Americans. Reports
Yesterday that fighting had taken place
at "Sasabe" and Mesquite" at first
caused Americans to believe that there
had been two battles.

tional Grange, while Charles s. Barrett
former president of the Farmers Union
also was scheduled to see Mr.. Hoover
During his talk with Mt. Tabor, Pres
ident Hoover is understood to have
spoken just as candidly and with as
much force as he did in his statement
to the press yesterday, in his endeavor
to get the farm organizations and the
farmers together for the purpose OF
enacting satisfactory relief measure
during the present extra session. He
and Mr.. Tabor are old friends and know
each other well enough to speak with
the utmost candor.
They did not confine their CONVEX
sation to the export debenture phase of
farm relief. but are understood to have
discussed the farm problem generally.
It was said on behalf of the President
that the fact that he and Mr.. Tabor
may not be entirely in accord on all
phase of proposed farm relief did
not prevent friendly conference.
Upon leaving the White House, Mr..
Tabor asked to be excused from dis
cussing the conference when questioned
by Newspaper correspondents. He said
that he expected satisfactory farm
relief bill to be enacted, and when asked
If he thought 1t would contain the ex-
port debenture plan advocated by his
organization, he evaded direct reply
by remarking that he had never failed
to be an optimist.
While Mr.. Hoover avoided mention
ing the debenture plan as being one
of the causes of the present division
in the farm ranks, in his statement of
yesterday, 1t is known that he Is anxious
for the country not to get the erroneous
impression that he favors that plan of
farm relief. The understanding is that
Mr.. Hoover is Withholding his plan
until next week when he will senf to
the agricultural committee Of the SEN
ate statement along with opinions
from the Secretaries Of the Treasury.
Agriculture and Commerce regarding
the export debenture plan.

would considerably lengthen hauls as
compared with the available all-rail
routes In addition 1t refused to allow
the barge-rail rates to be 20 per cent
lower than existing rail rates in all

the use Of the barge would require

Further, the commission denied the
corporations petition for the establish
ment of through routes which would
utilize barge rail-water rates between
points on the Atlantic coast and the
lower Mississippi Valley.
There is nothing to show that the
establishment Of ,barge-rail-water rates
made differentially under the all-rail

the decision said. I'VE shall not at this

BY further terms Of the decision the
railroads are required to enter into ne

cred, there is an abrupt first appearance
The several geological strata of earth
known to precede Immediately that in
which mems tools are found reveal no
traces of man at all. The human evil
dence appears all at once, and there
after gives evidence of continuous ex-
iStence.
DR.. Breasted described a new way Of
dating these early relics. This is to
concentrate on search for remains en-
bedded in layers of earth, the geological
ages of which are known. It is as
sumed that the human evidence must
have been deposited when the now
buried stratum was forming on the
earth's surface.
In Egypt the Chicago geologist-an-
thropologists found the dated" strata in
place named the Fayum, about so
miles south of Cairo, once the bed Of a
great lake. In the oldest of the strata
there they found nothing indicating
presence of human beings, but In the
fifth from the bottom they discovered
the tools of prehistoric man.
DR.. Breasted said that In an early
prehistoric era the Sahara was "a vast
well-watered and vegetation covered pla-
teau." He spoke at a symposium on the
question whether Egypt or Babylonia
had the earlier civilization. He favored
Egypts priority.
