FOUR KILLED N
STREET FIGHT
IN MEXICO CITY
„f
Battle Result of Polit-
ical Feuds Growing
Out of Congression-
al Elections
MJ&K O CITY. Aug. 20.—<**>— Bit-
ter irivairy between political factions
in congress has culminated 1* •
k street battle with fatalities.
Colonel Andreas Garcia former
Governor Tomas Garrido of Tabasco
and Deputy Rarcos Diaz were shot
yesterday'and Deputy Santiago Ca-
parrosa was shot several times. A
number of bystanders also were
wounded.
Poljtirjuns have been disputing the
results of the congressional election
held in July and a guard of federal
troops has been stationed in the
chamber to prevent factions from
combat. The religious situation has
been in no way connected with the
strife.
Fighting started yesterday after-
noon in front of the Iturbide hot/1.
A number of deputies estimated at
from seven to twenty began shoot-
ing from opposite sidewalks. The
street was crowded with pedestrians
and automobiles many shots were
exchanged.
The fighting was next door to one
of Mexico City’s fashionable Ameri-
can tea rooms. A number of Ameri-
can women were inside.
The shooting began when former
Governor Garrido and a part) af
friends encountered a group of po-
litical enemies on Madero avenue
which to Mexico City is what Fifth
avenue is to New York.
Deputy Garcia was instantly killed.
Diaz died seveaal hours later from
his wounds. Deputy Capcrrosa is at

Every woman who is partic-

aim of every woman is to ob-

to get. Knowing this to ke

best toilet articles manufac-

the point of death. Garrido was
shot in the face.
Garrido for a long time has been
one of the stormy petrels in Mexi-
can politics. Several months ago
during a visit to Mexico City an
unsuccessful attempt .was made by
political enemies to assnssinate him.
When congress convenes remem-
ber l it is expected that bills to
prevent congressmen from carryw ^
pistols and also removing the special
privilege of immunity under which
Deputies are exempt from arrest
will again be offered. At every ses-
sion of congress for many years such
bills have been introduced but al-
I •rays have died upon the calendar.

eral Damage
NEW YORK. N. Y„ Aug. 20.—hF)—
The cotton market opened steady
at an advance of 2 points to a de-
cline of 4 points. There was some
selling on the relatively easy show-
inf of Liverpool and iarge private
crop figures but the* market soon
steadied on renewed Covering. Trad-
ets generally seemed to be paying
more attention to the smaller pri-
vate crop indication than the maxi-
i mum figures and the rally after the
| opening also was promoted by re-
i poits of further showers in the
I eastern belt.
December sold up from 16.69 to
I 16.76 and the general njarket was
i steady with prices about one to :i
| points net higher at the end of the
j first hour.
Clearing weather conditions with
higher temperatures in Texas were
j considered favorable and the early
afternoon market was a shade easier
under liquidation. December sold off
to 16.71. with prices about not un-
changed to four points lower at 2
o’clock.

splendid results. My friends were
astonished at my rapid improvement.

Pollard-Not Enthusiastic
Over Ferguson Endorsement

Asserts He Has Al-
ways Opposed Jim
At the Primaries
(Special to The Herald.)
OUSTON Texas Aug. 20.—When
adxised today that James K. Fergu-
son had endorsed the candidacy of
| ('laud Pollard for attorney general
| his manager immediately got in
touch with .Mr. Pollard who is cam-
paigning in Noithwest Texas and
then issued this statement from'Mr. i
| Pollard:
“Of course I desire and appreciate ]
the support of all the citizens of ;
Texas who honestly believe I am I
better fitted to fill the office than
my opponent. Mr. Ferguson's en-
dorsement is a surprise.
"I want it clearly understood I
consider Mr. Ferguson under no
sojt of obligation to myself nor do
I consider myself under 4he slightest
ogligation to Mr. Ferguson or Mrs.
Ferguson as my opponte may have
been. Mr. Ferguson knows of
course that I have always opposed
him in the primaries. .Mr. Ferguson
knows I campaigned a large part of
the state against him in 11*18 when
Governor Hobby defeated him. He
knov's that 1 have repeatedly stated
in this campaign that I voted for |
Han Moody in the first primary t
r-—
■» +■ .*
Therefore Mr. Ferguson could not
feel he is under the slightest obli-
gation to me.ffs I am under no obli-
gation to him either directly or in-
directly.
• Mr. Ferguson says he started out
to suppu^ Mr. Allred and inasmuch
as Mis. Ferguson appointed his
brother to the office of district at-«
torjiey at the earnest solicitation of
my opponent it is perhaps natural
that Mr. Ferguson would expect the
suppoit of the Allimls. Gratitude
is one of the chler virturex; in-
gratitude is an unpaidonable' sin.
"I would not request or aec^pt an
office at the hands of any chief ex-
ecutive whom I could not support at
the ballot box. Very likely Mr.
Ferguson has endorsed my con-
ditlacy in preference to that of Mr.
► Allred because he resents that in-
gratitude of the beneficiaries of his
wife’s appointive power.
"Mr. Ferguson says in his state-
ment he is supporting me because
he considers me the he-t qualified
man for the place. I appreciate the
support of all given me on that con-
sideration.
"I have differed from my opponent
in campaign emthods in that 1 have
not sought to ride into office on the 1
coattails of either gubernatotini can-
didate but am asking office solely I
on my merits."

moral contract and approval of j

building occupied most of the time
devoted by the city commission to

fer red until the meeting next Fri-
day/
Plans formulated by John Arm-
strong. lieutenant of police for the
installation of electric traffic sig-
nals on Elizabeth Street inter-ec-
1 lions from Tenth to Thirteenth
Streets inclusive were explained.
F. H. Williams superintendent of
the city light and power system ex-
plained how the system could be
installed at a comparatively small
cost by removing the middle light
■ from the ornamental posts on the
corners and putting in the signal
arm in the spare left. Four signal
lights would he provided at each
corner with the control system at
some central point downtown. It
would be operated either auto-
j matieally or by hand. <
The plan worked out by Mr. Arm-
i strong would ;>#vide for a stream
of traffic for one-minute periods on
Elizabeth street and alternating
with half-minute periods on the
cross streets. The cost would -be
approximately $20ht). %
Action was deferred on the plans
i until the next meeting when it will

1 ready for a system of this kind.
Changes in the Chamber of Cora-
mesce building providing for hollow
j tile construction instead of metal
lathes and wood were approved.
An ordinance providing for the
naming of ell wross streets west of
Palm Bouieviid and numbering of
houses was passed.

Farmers to Assist
One of the plans suggested for fi-
nancing the project is to secure do-
nations aggregating $1 per acre on
all lands which will be directly bene-
fited hv the opening of the water-|
way. Members of the finance com-1
mittce. who ha\^ taken a very active
part in promoting the project re
ported they had tnlktd with a num-
her*of farmers and land owners In
the Harlingen. %tio Hondo La Fcria

were unanimous in asserting the
plan was the most equable that
could he devised. A1 Parker of La
Feria head of the A1 Parker Securi-
ties Company started the drive by
signing up for $16/>00 asserting
that he considered it one of the best
investments his company could mak*.
Other large contributions to the
fund are being signed up today and
the promoters state there is no
question that the amount will be
raised and work on the project
started in a short time.
l)o Not Want Delay
George Toolan secretary of the
Harlingen Chamber of Commerce
>|fited this morning that it was the
opinion of the Chamber of Com-
merce that the government might he
induced to dredge the channel but
the delay would be too costly. Mr.
Toolan was confident that the dredg-
ing could be completed and barges
brought up to Harlingen by the time
the Southern Pacific completes its
extension into that city.
The distance from Harlingen to
the Laguna Madrc ran be materially
shortened by dredging through a
•neck of land near the Arroyo moutb.
