MEXICAN REBELS
 CLASH WITH FEDS
Revolt of General CedillO Has Begun to Assume
 Greater Force

San Luis Potosi, Mexico, May 26.- (UP).-The revolt of Gen. Saturnino Cedillo reached new intensity today with violent clashes between his guerrillas and government forces in which many were killed.
 Government airplanes destroyed 8 rebel airdrome at Fl Rucio, killing many followers" of the outlawed army commander. Rebels destroyed the village fo Yerbabuena, where, 1t was reported, the majority of resi- dents were slain and their homes set afire."
 Destruction of the airdrome, gov- ernment officials asserted, crippled Cedillos aerial power badly. They believed that the former "warlord" of San Luis Potosi state had only a few planes and that some of these were destroyed in the raid. Fl Rucio is northeast of here, near Santo Domingo.
 Meanwhile, rebel and federal troops clashed in scattered sections of the state. Additional indications that the revolt was spreading was seen in confirmation of reports that rebel airplane flew over Tampico, on the east coast, and distributed revolutionary propaganda. Hundreds picked up the propaganda leaflets which included a manifesto signed by Cedillo and proclamation by the San Luis Potosi state congress. Salvador Ochoa Renteria, a federal deputy, told newspapermen that the government expected to capteure Cedillo soon.

others Swindled would-be investors of more than $1,00O,00O in the sale of stock of the Coronado Gold Mines, Inc. and the Kelley Gold and Silver Mines, Inc, between April, 1883, and September, 1885.
 It also charges that the defend- ants had boiler rooms" at 50 Pine street, New York City, and at 15 Exchange place, Jersey City, and that Bankers Service Corporation circulated "tipster sheet" to boost stock of the mining corporation, us- ing faxed earnings reports and fic- titious dividends.
 Peterson is said to be in Corpus Christi, Texas, with Bob at the present time.
 Bought Mine of Senator Owen
 According to Leo Fennelly, Assist ant United States Attorney at New York, the Coronado Gold Mines, Inc, acquired a mine in Atlanta, Idaho, from Robert L. Owen, former U. S. Senator, turned it over for 100000 shares of stock issued by the corpor- ation, and later received from him 100000 shares of the same stock. Bankers Service, 1t is alleged, then purchased the corporations stock and sold it to the public, boosting the price from $1.45 a share to $4.25 a share.

 The new swindle was started the year after the disagreement of the second jury and continued its oper- ation until 1885 when he was tried a third time on the old charge.

to bar telling union members and other acquaintances that he had shot the labor leader.
 None of them believed him, Mul- len said, and it was not until Il p. m. that Jack Smith, vice-president of the union, and Vincent Dunne, another union member, decided to check up. They found Browns body on the floor of his car on a North Side street.
 Two bullets had entered his body, one below the left ear, the other in the left side.
 Police found two revolvers in Johnson's rooms. One of them was 8 .38 caliber, and police believed it was the weapon used in the shooting.
 Two women found in Johnson's quarters were taken into custody and were held for investigation.
 Other Crime Unsolved
 Brown was slain as authorities abandoned their investigation of the assassination of Patrick J. Cor coran, vice-president of the Min- neapolis Federation of Labor. Cor coran was slain six months ago. Also unsolved were the killings of Walter Liggett and Howard Guil- ford, Twin Cities weekly newspaper publishers, whose papers had car ried editorials about Minneapolis and St. Paul labor problems. Brown was one of five prominent Twin Cities labor leaders threat ened with assassinat ton last Novem- Der shortly before Corcoran was slain. Mullins said he did not think it probable that Browns death was linked with the threats.
 Corcoran, president of the Min- neapolis Teamsters' Joint Council, which has jurisdiction over the Drivers Union, was shot to death from ambush near his home Nov. IT. His staying has never been solved. The case virtually was closed yes terday by coroner's jury which returned a verdict of murder by a person or persons unknown.
 Affiliated with A. F. of L. DULL tAiC 4CdlllStCIc NOu1lCAl, AAlu the Drivers Union over which the Council had jurisdiction, are aff1li- ated with the American Federation of Labor.
 When Corcoran was slain, police stationed guards at homes of Brown and other union leaders because of threats against their lives. The others guarded were S. J. Juetten and Earl Martin, union organizers, and the three Dunn brothers Grant, Vince and Miles-who were reported to have been the guiding force behind Brown in the 1894 truck strike and to have supported his position as head of the Drivers Union. Twin Cities labor groups have been electric with tension and excitement since Corcoran,s death

ACID STOMACH AND THAT GAS

ACID STOMACH AND THAT GAS
 During digestion or in many in- stances when hunger, appetite or desire for food is stimulated by the sight, odor or even the thought of food of which one is particularly fond. the gastric juice is acid. The acid in gastric juice is hydrochloric (muriatic) acid.
 If the secretion of acid is defi- cient, the digestion of food in the stomach Is retarded and the prog ress of the meal through the stom- ach and on into the intestine is de- layed too. This subacidity or hypo- chlor-hydria is usually present in anemia, chronic gastric "catarrh" or chronic gastritis, in persons with vitamin deficiency and in some cases of cancer of the stomach.
 If the gastric juice is too acid, hyperacidity, hyperchlor h y d ia "acid stomach" the digesting food is likely to be hurried through the stomach and on into the intestine before the normal digestion in the stomach is completed. Hyperacidity occurs with gastric or duodenal ul- cer, gallstones, in excessive smok- CTS and in some cases of ''neuras- thenia" or overirritability or ab- normally sensitive reaction to everyday emotional stimuli. (Space does not permit more detailed ex- planation-see Nerves and Nutri- tion." No. Is in Little Lessons scries).
 When the hydrochloric acid is di- unfinished or absent. proteins are badly digested, and long retention of the food in the stomach leads to fermentation (of starches or sugars) with formation of tactic acid and other acids such as butry- ic. as well as gases.
 Heartburn" or painful sensa- ton felt in the region of the eso- phagus, behind the breastbone, is due to reorganization of even normal gastric juice into the esophagus or gullet: or to reorganization of hyper acid stomach contents. Pain caused
