Furthermore, this also should at

statements contained nothing to show

Asked to identify the Mrs. Hall he
mentioned in his statement, Tuttle said
he knew nothing more about her than
that she was said to be the wife OF
Congressman.

other Representatives, contains the
names of two Mrs Halls. There is

The published reports mentioning
Mrs. Hall did not in any way connect
her with rumors about liquor, but mere

sentative Morgan protested to customs
men that she should be given the same
courtesies that would have been ex-
tended to her husband had he been

FOREST FIRES HIT
ORCHARD DISTRICTS.
Buildings Destroyed as
Flames Sweep West Vir-
ginia and Maryland Areas.

Four buildings were destroyed and
many orchards in Maryland and West
Virginia ruined when forest fires near
Martinsburg, w. Va. and in the Ha-
gerstown, Md, district, famed by high
winds, swept those sections last night
The fires continued near HagerStown
today
Heaviest loss is reported just west
of Martinsburg, where three forest
fires, raging through the night over
square miles of mountain land, burned
a schoolhouss, a church and several
houses.
The blaze in this section is thought
by residents to have originated from
sparks from a nearby saWmill.
Shortly after midnight hurry calls
were received by Martinsburg flrmen
from Hedgesville, where the first blaze
is thought to have started.
Blaze Under Control.
The blaze in this section this morn
ing is under control, although t1remen

and fire trenches" were relied upon in
fighting the flames where water was
not available.
Residents are hoping for rain to es-
cape danger. Damage will run into the
thousands. Hundreds of persons were
attracted to the fires. The glare was
visible for many miles.
The blaze in the Hagerstown section
was burning shortly before noon To-Day
over a 1,0O0-acre tract OF land. FIRE
fighters were hampered by high wind
Blazes are confined to sections near
Park Head, Indian Springs and Smiths
burg. One hundred and fifty men are
fighting the blaze.
Firebugs Blamed.
Fire marshals believe the fires are OF
incendiary origin, stating that at tins
time every year serious damage results
from forest fires when mountain folk
set the blaZes to assist the growth OF
huckleberry bushes. The mountaineers
are of the opinion the marshals say,
that the bushes thrive better on burned
ground.
Last year when fires ravaged this sec
ton Government officials established a
base near Winchester to prove that this
contention was false.

.ESCOBAR ATTACKS
HOUSE OF MORGAN
Declares Morrow Places His
Personal Finances Above
Loyalty.
BY the Associated Press.


Ell PASO. Tex. April "A telegram
from Gen. Jose Gonzalo Escobar, COM
mander-in- OF the Mexican revo-
| lutionists, addressed to THE American
people, attacking the powerful house
OF Morgan" was revealed by Franc
Urias, Mexican rebel consul, here today.
The rights of foreigners in Mexico
have been disregarded except when
| their interests were connected with the
private interests Of Gales himself or
when he thought he could use them to
strengthen his position as tyrant of
Mexico the message said.
This Is the case with the powerful
house of Morgan, whose representative,
Mr.. Morrow Dwight Morrow, United
States Ambassador TO Mexico) seems to
care more for his own personal financial
standing than for loyalty representing
his great country" the message con-
tinued.
Attacks Gales Regime.
Mexican people wonder with all sor-
row If financial interests of great bank
ing organizations can carry more weight
in the mind Of the President of the
United States, whose country is the
classic land of liberty, than freedom and
the welfare of friendly nation"
The message described the Gales
regime In Mexico as one of "deSpoilation
and violation" and termed President
| PorteS Gil mere puppet of Gales. -
The. reVolutionists, Gen. Escobar said,
have combined to free the country Of
an unjust leader.
Asks Same Facilities.
I'm view of this" the message added.
we cannot but feel confident that the
United States administration, disregard
ing the suggestions of an Ambassador
who represents only small group of in
terests, will give heed to the opinion of
the majority of liberty-loving citizens of
America. All historic presidents OF the
United States and the similarity of our
common ideals and ambitions will surely
move the people of the United States
to join us in our demand that
all assistance rendered to the enemies of
liberty be withdrawn or else that we
may be granted the right of belligerency
and allowed the same facilities now
given our adversaries.
1T is publicly proclaimed that Gales
receives all kinds of assistance from the
United States Government, besides
strong moral support, in the way of ma
terial taken from the surplus stock of
the United States Army, most ample au-
thority to purchase and take into Mex
leo all the arms, ammunition, airplanes,
implements and foodstuffS Gales may
need, and even permission to transport
his troops across American territory, for
getting the sovereignty of States them
selves"
