Chihuahua Concern Ships
Money to E1 Paso Af-
ter 'Canceling It.
Fearing repetition of the gocalled
loan of 58009 pesos made to the rebel
government the management of the
Banco Nacional at the city of Chthua-
hut has smuggled through El Paso
many hundred thousands of pesos in
paper currency within the last week.
Tine matter which has just come to
light U one of the most peculiar cir-
cumstances in banking history.
The currency has been smuggled from
the state capital of Chihuahua to this
city by employes of the branch there
who carried the bills in handbags and
in their clothing. Each one of the bills
was stamped "cancelled and annulled"
with the date of the cancellation given.
This renders the bills useless but tbe
can be redeemed for their full value at
aiexlco City where they are being
shipped openly from El Paso.
Some days ago the rebels at the city
of Chihuahua seoured what they term
a loan from the national bank there
which is the largest Institution in the
state. Some 60.000 pesos were secured
in spite of. it is said the protests of
N. Domlnguez the manager of the bank.
whrf was not authorised by the bank's
headquarters at Mexico City to make
any loan to the revolutionary govern-
ment. At the beginning of the revolu-
tion much of the cash in the Chihua-
hua bank was removed and after mak-
ing Ae 'loan" it Is said no more re-
mained than the money which already
has been smuggled into the United
States and shipped to Mexico City.
The branch of the Banco Nacional at
Ciucled Juarez remains closed since the
robbery of its funds made by the rebels
under CoL Antonio Rojas a rebel com-
mander although the Juarez branch Is
doing some business in El Paso.

Oscar Creighton the American who
served under Madero during the lat-
ter's operations against Diaz is hers
today from the City of Mexico where
she was granted the sum of ?000 an-1 a
pension by president Madero." says the
San Antonio Light.
"Capt. Creighton took a prominent
part in the Madero revolution. He had
charge of the dynamiting corps and
was principally engaged in the destruc-
tion of railroad bridges in the path of
the Diaz forces. He was killed in an
engagement at Bauche near Juarez.-
"Creighton." when he was In the Ma-

Wheelock. of Boston who had embez-
zled J 10.00 from the Massachusetts
Bonding and Insurance companv of 77

as Wheelock was verified when me
body was exhumed at Bauche where it

Stopped Says Consul.
Austin. Tex.. March 23. Manuel A.
Bsteva Mexican consul general at
large and inspector of consulates In the
United States reached here today from
Saa Antonio and had a conference with
the governor on the Mexican situation.
the exact phase of which however. ha3
not been disclosed.
Mr. Esteva said that he promised the
governor to come here prior to his
(Esteva's) departure for Mexico City.
He said that the recent order of the
federal government banning the ship-
ments of arms to Mexico Is working
a hardship on the Mexican government
as well as the rebels.
He expressed himself as being pleased
with the efforts that are. being made
in the state in preserving neutrality
on this side of the border. He pre-
dicted an early end to the revolution.
He said conditions have materially
improved on the Medina river canal
r6ject relative to the treatment of

news of the battle alleged to be run-
ning Its course at or near Escalon.
"Our Information is similar to that con-
tained in the press dispatches which
come over the Chihuahua-Juarea wire
to The Herald and to the -Associated
Presa We are told that up to date
the advantage is with the Liberal
forces: but. the decisive engagement
will probably not be fought until both
sides have had time in which to bring
up their reserves. I hajre no fear for
the outcome. We have already captured
some of the federal artillery which
added to what we already had. plaoes
us on a more nearly equal ffeoting. That
we will win the battle of Torreon If
one is fought. I have no doubt
"We have some heavy shipments of
arms coming" Col. Ponce said "but
naturally we are not giving out infor-
mation which might be taken advtan-
tage of by our enemies. We are get-
ting many rifles and much ammunition
across the line but we are handicapped
of course by the limited number which
the gun runners are able to get across
at a single trip."

A telegram signed by Gen. Orozco is
posted in Juarez to the' effect that
Gen. 8alazar has wired him that he
captured two machine guns and two

Mexican drew his knife and threat-
ened to kill the child. Just then
George Romney and his wife who
were returning home arrived and Mr.
Romney interfered. Another Mexican
stepped up and slapped him in the

Nasal Catarrh aad Indigestion.
Mr. James P. Bracken 442 W. 43d St New York City. N. T.. writes:
. r nary a dosen years catarrh has bothered me in on form or
anotnec : I was troubled with nasal catarrh that had affected my stomach.
which troubled me most In the morning. Mr appetite was poor and I did
not seem to relish my food. Indigestion bothered me at times also. I was
advised to take Peruna. and I took It as prescribed for a month when my
cure was almost complete. Today there is not trace" of catarrh in my
system and I can say without hesi tation that Peruna cured me."
Catarrh of Head and Stomach.
Mr. Frank Richter. S09 East Second
St. Winona Minn. writes: "As a rem-
edy for catarrh I take pleasure in rec-
ommending Peruna for catarrh of the
stomach.
"My catarrh was principalis- located
in my head and stomach I tried many
remedies without success. I tried sev-
eral doctors but they were unable to
cure me. I read of Peruna in the pa-
pers and fWe bottles cured me."
System In Bad Condition.
Mr. Michael Rooney. 26 Fifth St Wa-
terrliet N. T. writes:
"If I had known of Peruna years ago
I should have been saved much suffer-
ing. Under carelessness and exposure
in my younger years my system got
into a very bad condition before I was
aware of it.
"My friends advised me to try Pe-
runa. for which I am verv thankful aa
it has cured me in two months.'
