REBEL TROOPS ARRIVE AT GATES OF MAZATLAN
Gen. I1URBE'S TROOPS ARRIVE
ON OUTSKIRTS OF PEARL CITY
READY TO LAUNCH BIG DRIVE

Rebel forces under command of
General Ramon Iturbe were knock
ing at the gates of Mazatlan last
night and will attack "The Pearl
City of The Pacific, either at day
break this morning or tomorrow.
A telegram announcing that re-
bel troops have reached the out
skirts of Mazatlan was received
last night by General Francisco
Borquez, rebel commander in No
gales, Sonora.
According to reports received
here, Genera; Jaime Carrillo, fed
era. commander at Mazatlan, has
$500 men. These will be greatly
outnumbersd, if reports are true,
as the rebels are said to have 10,-

600. Carrillo is thoroughly in
trenched with his troops and is
confident of holding the. city.
If the rebel attack is successful,
Carri!lo will probably attempt es-
cape by sea as railroad connec-
tions with Mazatlan have been cut
off by the rebels. The Mexican bat
tleship, "Progreso" is steaming in
the harbor evidently waiting tG
take Carrillo and his staff, should
they fight a losing battle.
That Iturbe will attempt to cut
off Carrillo's escape by sea was in
dicated when he asked the United
States War Department to vacate
the harbor of American ships.
The attack was due yesterday
but Iturbe in communication with
rebel headquarters said he was de-
laying the seige of the city several
hours in order to give his men
much needed rest.

Port Opened For
Crossing Of
Tomatoes

7 h e Mexican government,
through orders issued Friday by
Roberto Pesqueira, special en-
voy from the office of President
Gil, and Governor Abelardo Rod
riguez of Baja California, de-.
clared the Port of Nogales open
for the crossing of tomatoes in
to the United States.
The order calls for an exchange
of refrigerator cars at the line,
that is, for every loaded car com
ing out, an empty goes back into
Mexico.
This new ruling saves the to-
mato industry from further loss.

zen. t duSlO IOpt1e

Having completed repairing
several brldg.s on Cananea,
branch of the Southern Pacilic
de Mexico railroad, rebel de-
tachments returned to Noga-
les. Sonora, yesterday immidi-
ately after which genera.
mobilization began atross the
line, indicating the rebel at
tack on Naco is near at hand.
81 am reliably informed that
General Augustin Olachea was
swung over to the federal cause
upon receipt OF $4,000 from Gov
ernor Abelardo Rodriguez Of Baja
California, and that Colonel Torres,
second in command at Naoo, was
given $25, ,OO0", it was stated to
newspapermen by General Fausto
Topete shortly after his arrival
here Sunday to direct the rebe! at
tack on Naco, expected to begin
within the next few hours.
"Now that Rodriguez has OBJ
tanned foothold on Mexican ter.
ritory in northern Mexico why does
he not use Naco, Son., as a base
of operations instead of remaining
in United States under the pfotec-
tion of the Ameri an flag to direct
ths military operations of the fed
erals in northern Mexico and thus
violate the international neutrality
laws" Topete continued. He is
afraid, that is why" he said an
swering his own question, "Rodri-
guez knows that once a traitor, al
ways a traitor, and he does not
trust Olachea."
Asked whether there was any
concern felt over the final outcome
of the rebellion, General Topete's
face lighted up as he vigorously de-
clared:
Absolutely mol"
And over the faces of all those
near him a smile of confidence
shown. Only once since the revolt
started has there appeared any con-
Germ over the various reports COM
ing in to the rebel headquarters.
That was when the Naco revolt
was declared. Except for that one
time all the leaders here radi-
ate confidence in rebel vic tory.
General Topete arrived here Sun
day but when he expects to leave
for Naco he refused to divulge. Ad-
ditional troops were expected here
Sunday afternoon from the south
but the number was also declared
q military secret.

Chicago Millionaire Denotes His
To Aiding Stun Boys
BY EDWARD STANLEY
ASSOCIATED Press Feature Writer


CHICAGO, June 18.-CPg-Most OF
the time the gold coast forgets the
ghetto, but sometimes 1t remembers,
and then It does something fine for
its gang-breeding brother.
Because he remembered, L. L.
Valentine, one Of the many million
aires who live with crisp Lake Mich
igan before them and the fetid
slums at their backs, is going to give
his life and his millions TO Chi
cago's boys.
Down La Sale street, among the
big banks and brokerage offices, he
has opened an office to direct his
philanthrophies in person, through
the Chicago Boys club.
He hasn't any children OF his own,
this 64-year-old wholesale dealer in
boyhood. who started life in q lit
tie Illinois town. the son of an i'm
migrant cabinet maker, and rose
TO head a great furniture concern.
I've always liked youngsters. and
they like me-" he says. Perhaps
that's why I've taken this way OF
ulSpOSlng OF my money, instead OF
something in stone.
Mrs. Valentine and / have dis
cussed the matter thoroughly, and
we have decided that since we made
u wealth in Chicago we should
give il back there. We know of no
better way than Of seeking to make
its future secure by building man
hood in the present. What better
monument could any man ask?
These boys In congested dis
trict-often the only playground for
hundreds is a single vacant lot. Is
IL any wonder they grow up TO be-
come gangsters?
1t isn't enough to give only
money. There must be an invest
ment Of personal interest. as well.
1 have opened this office for that
purpose and I expect to be every
bit as busy and get Just as much
pleasure out of serving boys as I ever
did in business"
Valentine started in his new lob
with an initial gift OF S350.OOO for
the first of IS club buildings which
the organization plans for congest-
ed districts, part Of an $4,000. 900
campaign aimed TO serve so, 900 boys.
