JUAREZ PEOPLE KEEK
SAFETY IN EL PASO
Fearing a wholesale reign of loot
ing and lagfleatneas in Juares, many
of the residents of that much harried
city fled to El Paso last night with
their few remaining valuables. The
departure of ISO of the Bed Flag
garrison to the relief of beleaguered
Casas Grandes, left the border town
practically unguarded and at the
mercy of the lawless pang that has
gathered there.
The organized Red Flag guard of
Juarez has been reduced to the pro-
portions of a corporal’s squad. A
garrison of about sixty men Is still
being maintained at Guadalupe,
patrollng the Rio Grande eastward,
on the lookout for the force* of
Colonel Jose <Je la Cruz Sanchez.
When the band In Juarez waa still
further diminished by the withdrawal
of the Casas Grandes contingent,
there were not enough men left to
do the usual patrol and police duty
In the streets.
Fearing that the unorganized free-
booters of the town would take ad-
vantage of the absence of their or-
ganized brothers, and Inaugurate a
free-for-all looting bout, many resi-
dents preferred to spend the night. In
El Paso.

POLITICAL BRIGANDAGE
WAS WORKED IN OHIO
Oyster Bay, June 4.—"Pure polit-
ical brigandage," said Colonel Rooae-
velt tonight of the capture of Ohio’s
six delegates-at-large to the Repub-
lican convention by supporters of
President Taft. He said It was a
fresh and conclusive proof that Mr.
Taft and his advisors care nothing
for the will of the people.
In hie statement Colonel Roosevelt
said:
"The plain people of the Republi-
can party of Ohio have juat held a
primary in which they repudiated
Mr. Taft by over thirty thousand ma-
jority. The politicians by adroit ma-
nipulation have succeeded In giving
Mr. Taft the six delegates-at-Iarge,
in frank and cynical defiance of the
emphatic action of the people them-
selves. In this fight I have brom be-
ginning to end Bought to give the
people the right to say whom they
wanted to have at president and have
not merely by word, but by actions
made It evident that I did not wish
the nomination unless the majority of
the rank and file of the Republican
party wished me to have It.”

GRADUAL PALL IS EXPECTED
FROM NOW ON.
County Bridges, While Menaced, Are
Believed to Be Safe, If No Rtee
Com.
Reports to the Reclamation ser-
vice office In El Paso from Kelden
yesterday stated that the Rio Grande
at that point had been stationary
Monday night and Tuesday. From all
Indications It appears that the high-
est water of the year has pasted El
Paso and that from, now on there will
be a gradual fall of the river.
The reading taken at Kan Marclal
yesterday showed that the flow at
that place was 13,000 cubic feet per
second—a decrease of 500 feet from
Monday's measurement. The flow at
El Paso yesterday, according to the
measurements of the United States
water boundary commission, taken at
Courchesne, was 14,000 cubic feet per
second. This is the lowest volume of
water that hae passed here since the
beginning of the rise last Friday
night.
Bridge* are Safe.
The Faben*. Canutlllo and Cour
cheane bridges are in no danger of
being carried away, In the opinion of
County Engineer Eubanks, who with
Judge A. 8. J. Eylar, county judge,
was empowered Tuesday afternoon
by the county commissioners to take
all the necessary steps for the pro-
tection of the bridges.
All three structures have sunk In
the center from one to two feet and
the approaches to each have been
washed over by the waters, but with
these exceptions no damage has been
done- Light traffic Is allowed over
the Canutlllo and Fabena bridges.
The Courchesne bridge is for foot
passengers only. The steel cables
thst support and are a part of the
Fabens and Canutlllo strueturea have
been strengthened by being more
firmly anchored to their moorings.
It was reported yesterday afternoon
that a portion of the Anthony bridge
was washed away yesterday morning.
This bridge was not as heavy a one
as the Fabens or Canutlllo structures.
County Surveyor Eubanks has
gangs of men working on the county
road above and below the city, bal-
lasting and banking portions that
have been weakened or flooded by
the water. The threatened overflow
of the Irrigation canal at Cuadrllla,
Tex., last Monday afternoon did not
materialize. Sheriff Edwards sta-
tioned men along the threatened por-
tions and a watch was kept all day
yeeterday.

Washington, June 4.—When
naval inspection board arrived
RocklantL Me., last night to con
the official trial of the big battle
Arkansas, they found that when
passing through the Bush channel
entrance to Penobscot Bay Sunday
afternoon, the Arkansas had touched
the bottom. ,
Captain Fechteler, president of the
trial board, reported to the navy de-
partment today that the ship struck
rocks about one quarter of the way
back from the bow on the left slda,
the running of tralne. A strict watch
again close to the keel.
She bounced along on this Beef for
forty-four feet, most of the way Juat
below the forward boiler rooms At
that point the ship's structure Is dl
vlded Into a great number of small
compartments. ,
The value of the naval system of
aub-dlvlslon of the hull into a largs
number of small compartments is be-
lieved to have been demonstrated oy
the accident, for the blow to the
Arkansas is thought to have been
just such a clip as the heel of the
Iceberg inflicted upon the bottom ol
the Ill-fated Titanic.
At the point where the Titanic waa
struck there were no inner compart-
ments, not even coal bunkers but only
the thin skin of the ship. Naval
constructors today said that had the
Arkansas not been 'sub-divided,
doubtless she would have gone to the
bottom. The Arkansas was able to
go out again today to finish her trial'
with these eight compartments prob-
ably full of water, leaving the dam-
age to be repaired later on, unless It
Is discovered that the ship's lines
have been so distorted as to reduce
her speed below the point of accep-
tance.
The Arkansas has not been turned
over to the government by the New
York Shipbulding company of Cam
den, whose employes were in charge
of the vessel when she struck. There-
fore, the company will make good the
damage and the repairs probably will
consume about a month.

clerk employed In the Texas A Paci-
fic railroad's local office, has made
a written confession to Chief of De-
tectives Stansel. The statement con-
tains a remarkable story of a lost
letter, which led to the forging of a
draft for $50 drawn on the sister of
a man he had never seen.
Maddox states that he found a let-
ter addressed to W. L. Hardie, a min-
ing man, on San Jacinto plaza os
April 20. The letter was from Belle
Hardie, a sister of the mining man,
who resides In Helena. Mont. The
writer told her brother that If at any
time he should need money, to noti-
fy her by wire and she would tele-
graph the desired amount.
Maddox says that he was out of
funds and without employment when
he found the letter and the tempta-
tion was too great for him. He car-
ried the letter In his pocket for nearly
a week, but finally wired to Miss Har-
die for $50, using the signature of
her brother. The follcflvlng day he
was notified that a draft teas await-
ing him at the Postal Telegraph com-
pany's local office.
Presenting the check to the cashier
of the First National bank he was
Informed that he could not get It
cashed without Identification. To sur-
mount this difficulty. Maddox induced
hla landlady at 21S Franklin street
to Indorse the check, stating that
there had been a mistake made in
the name. He Informed the landlady
that his stepfather's name waa Hardie,
and the mistake In names was a nat-
ural one.
After securing the endorsement of
the check, Maddox cashed It. saying
he intended leaving town. Instead of
doing so he remained In El Paso.
Thursday the draft waa forwarded
to Chief Stansel from New York by
the landlady who had Indorsed It and
to whom It had bean returned. Mad-
dox was arrested and has been trans-
ferred to the county jail on a charge
of forgery.

to have had cashed by his former em-
ployer, J. B. Watson, a grocer on

sion to Chief of Detectives Stansel.
He admitted passing the check and
said that he had returned to oorrect
his error and make good the money.

police court yesterday the case waa
transferred to the county court.
Burke returned to El Paso from
Tucson, Arlz., to wed Halite S. Paw-
kett of Pecos. The youthful couple
were married Saturday, but their
their dream of wedded happiness
lasted only one brief day. Sunday
Chief Stansel Interrupted the honey-
moon and arrested Burke at a house
on Magoffin avenue, where the couple
had taken rooms.
The police have Information from
