dillo, recently dispatched to under
take cleanup of the so-called reli-
eious insurgents In Jalisco, Guiana

The message Of the minister of

the nation of these insurgents for
once and for all time.
On the west coast the advance
guard OF the army Of General Lazaro
Cardenas was expected to arrive at
Mazatlan today and reinforce the
garrison of General Jaime Garlic.
AS summarized by military eX-
perts here the campaign is rapidly
approaching another decisive phase,
when the rebels either must fight
and suffer almost certain defeat or
abandon another large rich area to
the federal forces. Thus it is be-
lieved Chihuahua will shortly be
occupied much a. Coahuila. Neuvo

and what rebel troops there are in
the field will be forced back into

PERMIT
UNDER DISCUSSION
Annapolis Company's AppIi-
cation Must Be Settled
by Commissioners.
BY WILLIAM ]. WHEATLEY,

SILVER SPRING, Md, May %
Studies made by Capt. Joseph c.
Cissel, general counsel to the board Of
county commissioners. of the applica-
ton of the Annapolis & Chesapeake
Bay Electric Light 81 Power Co. for per-
mission to extend its lines in Mont
gomery County have indicated that
there is no legal question involved, and
that the matter Of granting the permit
lies within the discretion of the county
commissioners, it was said today by
Capt. Cissel.
The matter will be- referred back to
the commissioners with this opinion.
Capt. Cissel said 1t appears the company
has complied with the statutory require
nents as to advertisement, and there
was nothing to legally stop the issuance
OF the permit, except the decision Of the
county commissioners. However, Capt.
Cissel said he would communicate with
S. r, Bowen, counsel for the Potomac
Electric Power Co. of Washington. who
protested at the public hearing Tues
day against the granting of the permit.
This was only q verbal protest, and
Capt. Cissel said that he would inform
the Washington attorney, that If he
desired to make an issue. he should file
a written protest against the issuance Of
the permit.
1t was disclosed at the hearing before
the county commissioners there was on
file with the Maryland Public Service

TAKOMA F|REBUG
h IS AGAIN SOUGHT
Police Believe Blaze Last
Night Was of Incen-
diary Origin.

BY a stan Correspondent of The Star.
TAKOMA PARK, Md, May "a
Operations Of another firebug in this
town has set the police machinery in
motion, and a close watch is being kept
on all vacant homes, which seems to be
the principal object of attack. A fire
last night, believed to have been of in
cendiary origin. started in the dwelling,
vacant at the time owned by Mrs. Wal
dron. at las Philadelphia avenue. The
house was completely destroyed, with
a. loss estimated by the police at 81 500.
The fire gained such Roadway before
the arrival OF the Takoma Fire Depart
ment that 1t damaged the adjacent
property to the extent Of about 5000.
This property WIS occupied by E. B.
MCGOWAN.
Chief of Police L. A. Cutshaw said
that he received a call about $50 last
night to come quick to the Philadelphia
avenue address. and when he arrived
he found that 1t was f1remen, and not
police, they wanted. He promptly
turned in an alarm.
The fire was discovered by Mrs. Nc
Gowan. according to Chief Cutshaw,
and apparently had started on the sec
ofid floor of the house. Shortly before
the discovery of the blaze three colored
men were seen lettering in the vicinity,
and: police are searching for them. One
OF the men was picked up this morning
by Chief CutShaw and taken to the
police station. but was subsequently re-
leased. The officer said that he expects
to make further arrests this afternoon.
This is the first fire of incendiary
origin which the town has had since
the arrest in March of Arthur Beall Of
Takoma Park, now awaiting trial on
charge OF setting fires In the area.

Commission an agreement between the
companies as to the territory they
would serve However. this agreement
would not be binding upon the county
commissioners, one way or the Others
The extensions Immediately proposed,
ID was said, are in the northern district.
County Commissioner Lacy Shaw, gov
ernor of this district. is INCLINED to the
belief that the Maryland company
should be allowed to extend its lines
in the eastern side Of the county, in
the interest Of the people there. He
pointed out that the Maryland COM
pany can install the original service
cheaper than the Washington company
at this time, because the formers lines
are closer. The question is not one OF
rates, but the cost of the original in
stallations.
Cost Instance Cited.
Mr.. Shaw cited one instance where
it would cost the District company
several thousand dollars to- run in the
service. which, Of course, would have
to be advanced by the consumers seek
ing the service, whereas the other com.
pany's cost would be a matter of hun
dreds Of dollars, simply because its main
line was closer He pointed out that
the people should be considered, and
given the benefit of this lower cost, and
he did not think that the Potomac Co.
should be given AN exclusive right In
the matter Of this original installation.
In view of the fact that Capt. Cissel
has ruled that there is no legal question
involved, the matter now is left entirely
with the county commissioners. Further
as most of the territory involved is in
Commissioner Shaw's district, 1t is
certain that his opinion will have great
weight in making the final decision in
the matter.
