TWO COMRADES MEET SIM'LAR
FATE; IS ATTACTED BY MEN
UNDER HERRERO.
PROTEST MADE TO GONZALES
General Obregon Scatingly Arraigns
Carranza’s Followers for Not Pro-
tecting Chief.
Mexico, City.—President Venustiano
Carranza, -who, -with a small party of
followers, has been a fugitive in the
mountains of Puebla since late last
week, was killed at Taxcaantongo
eary Thursday morning, according to
official announcement here. Two com-
panions, the names of whom are un-
known, also were killed.
The Carranza leaders said Carranza
was made a prisoner and cowardly
assassinated at the cry of “Vive Ob-
"<3gon” by Colonel Rodolfo Herrero,
. Y"his men 'violating the hospitality that
^ ban been offered hi mby Herrero.
‘,rrhe undersigned of this message,”
said the Carrancista message, “pro-
test, with all their energy, honor and
loyalty to the entire world this new
st"in which has been thrown upon our
country.”
Obregon, in his answer to this mes-
sage, scathingly arraigned Carranza’s
followers for allowing him to be
assassinated.
“It is very strange,” he said, “that
a, group cf officers who are vouching
their loyalty and honor like yourselves
and who were accompanying President
Carranza with the unfaltering duty of
protecting him, should have allowed
him to be assassinated.”
“Villa Juarer, State of Puebla.—To
Ceneral Alvaro Obregon: Referring
to your telegram of this date, Herrero
joined the column at Patla, professing
loyalty. Arriving at Tlaxcantongo,
Herrero offered hospitaity to Carranza,
placing sentinels who knew the ter-
rain. At 4 o’clock in the morning his
men, abusing the confidence in them,
surrounded the shelter where Car-
••anza was sleeping, firing their rifles
furiously into the hut. Everyone of-
fered resistance, athough with the na-
tural demoralization caused by the un-
sxpected attack.
; “General Francisco Murguia fought,
valiantly, repulsing the traitors who
surprised the defenders when they
fvere leaving their shelter to attack
the enemy.
“The unexpectedness of the attack
enables us to clear our military
honor. The defense was so general
that the attackers were forced to take
30 prisoners, among them Mario Men-
dez, Paulino Fontes, Gil Garias, Gen-
eral Helioloro Perez, Colonel Gomez,
General Villela and Carranza’s milt
tary aid.”
V' CASH BONOS BILL
IS BELIEVED DEAD
New York Unions Resent Exclusion
From New York Compensation
Act.
New York.—A strike of 65,000 long-
shoremen in the port of New York
looms in the near future, so intense is
the bitterness of the men as a result
of the United States supreme court’s
decision barring them and other ship
and dock workers from injury benefit
under the state workmen’s compensa-
tion act.
The decision holds that while state
legislatures have the light to enact a
compensation hill affecting all classes
of labor within their borders, the fed-
eral law only has jurisdictian over
men on ships and piers.
Under the campensation act the
longshoremen have been paid $20 a
week for accidents. According to com-
missioner Thomas Curtis of the com-
pensation board, not less than 5,000
longshoremen are injured during a
year, many of them seriously.
STRIKE THREATENED
BY LONGSHOREMEN
^ Washington.—Legislation for a cash
bonus to the former service men is be-
lieved tc he dead, and if this be true,
the credit for its condition is due to
Representative John N. Garner of
Texas, member of the house ways and
means committee, who has led the
fight for the democrats in their com-
bination with those of the republican
side who are against the legislation.
The opponents have succeeded in
bringing the bill into the house hob-
bled with tax features objectionable to
the republican majority. This is
notably true of the 10 per cent tax on
stock dividends to apply from the
passage of the act, but not to he re-
trotive. The repuolicans, in order to
gather fo-rce, adopted a heavy surtax
of incomes, a feature that has been ad-
vocated by the democrats since the
bonus legislation came into being.
U. S. Marshal Dies
Texa.rkana, Texas.—Captain Benja-
min F. Sherrell, United States mar-
shal for the eastern district of Texas,
died here at 6 o’clock Sunday even
ing.
America to Arbitrate Armenian Case
Paris.—Ambassador Wallace inform-
ed the council of ambassadors that
President Wilson had announced that
.tSe United States would accept the
role of arbitrator in fixing the boun-
daries of Armenia.
HOBBY WILL SUBMIT
SOME NEW SUBJECTS
5ILL TO ESTABLSH SCHOOL
FARMS AT ALL SCHOOLS
IS INTRODUCED.
Austin, Texas.—There will be some
Additional subjects of legislation sub-
mitted this week, though they prob-
ably will be withheld until the gover-
nor returns from the democratic con-
vention at Dallas.
Subjects now said to he sure of sub-
mission this session include the mat-
ter of raising road bond interest maxi-
mum to 6 per cent; exempt municipal
bonds from taxation; amendments to
the state fire insurance commission
law so as to reorganize that body and
permit it to assess the full 1 1-4 per
cent tax on annual gross fire premiums
for the support of the commission; the
Cox bill placing gas pipe lines under
the jurisdiction of the railroad com-
t* ission; the McNealus boxing com-
mission bill as advocated by posts of
the American Legion, and prooably
amendments to the minimum wage
law so as to make it flexible and per-
mit zoning in fixing minimum wages.
Representative King of Erath intro-
duced a bill seeking the establishment
af vocational studies in public schools
and the attachment of school farms to
all public schools. It was referred to
the committee on education.
Austin, Texas.-—With a quorum pres-
ent in each branch the special session
af the legislature called by Governor
Hobby convened at 10 o’clock Thurs-
day morning.
Governor Hobby sent two messages
to the legislature, one dealing with
pink boll-worm legislation and the oth-
er fith 'reference to aid for education
and institutions.
The senate elected unanimously
Senator A. C. Buchanan of Bell coun-
ty p.esident pro tem.
Old officers were re-elected with the
following new selections: W. V. How-
erton, Austin, secretary; John D.
Cofer, Austin, assistant secretary, and
Mrs. Josephine Collins, Dallas, assis-
tant journal clerk. Position of journal
clerk is to be filled.
It is evident that the pink bollworm
legislation is going to provoke a hot
light. Counties in the Trinity bay
area are sending delegations to Austin
to oppose any legislation which will
prevent the growing of cotton. They
have lawyer representatives here who
will lead their opposition.
An instance of the anti-pink boll-
worm legislation feeling occurred
when Representative Pope of Corpus
Christi moved that the legislature ad-
journ sine die Thursday, the very day
the session met. His motion was
promptly tabled.
One compromise plan suggested is
strict state quarantine around the
whole zone alleged to be infested, with
stringent regulations for fumigation
of all products passing out of it, but
permit cotton to be grown therein ex-
cept in the very spots where worms
have appeared.
Against this is urged the federal
threat to Quarantine the whole state
of Texas and all produces shipped out
Df this state.
Bills were passed by the house ap-
propriating $65,000 for mileage and
per diem of members and officers and
$16,000 for contingent expenses. In
the senate the departmental deficiency
bill was presented, carrying $57,182
in approved deficiencies.
On Thursday, May 27, the govern-
nor’s recess appointments will be con-
sidered for confirmation in executive
session. Senator McNealus had read
the appropriations to pay school teach-
ers.
Twelve new members were inducted
in the house, the largest at any spec-
ial session.
'Representative Tillotson introduced
the concurrence resolution providing
for a joint committee of five represen-
tatives and three senators to investi-
gate every phase of the pink bollworm
situation, particularly as to the ex-
tent of the infestation and location
thereof, inviting the federal agents to
he present and offer evidence they
have of pink bollworm presence in
Texas.
Messrs. O’Banion and McCord offer-
ed a substitute which, in effect, would
have the inquiry conducted by the
house and senate in joint session.
Both houses have adopted the O’
Banian-McCord concurrent resolution
as a substitute for the original Tillot-
son resolution. Their sessions will he
held in Austin.

Mobile, Ala.—In the presence of
hundreds of people Saturday morning
the eighth steel steamship bearing the

hold of Weatherford, Texas, who came

the excellent record made in the Lib-
erty loan and other dirves.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
HALL’S CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result. Unless the inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its nor-
mal condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases of Deafness are
caused by Catarrh, which is an inflamed
condition of the Mucous Surfaces.
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS for any
case of catarrhal deafness that cannot
be cured by HALL’S CATARRH
MEDICINE.
