Laredo, Tex., Oct. 19.—Three bandits
and several Constitutionalist soldiers
were killed last Saturday when, the
bandits attempted to hold up a train
between San Luis Potosi and Rio

It is said that efforts are being

day, encountered three different bands
of bandits. Some lives are reported to
have been lost in these encounters,

Attorneys for Accused Man Say It Will
Be Allowed.
By Associated Press.
El Paso, Tex., Oct. 19.—Attorneys for
W. B. Sands, the Texas ranger indicted
for murder in connection with the
death of Sergeant Owen Bierne of the
Twenty-third regular infantry, received
information that the court of criminal
appeals had granted Sands bail in the
sum of $10,000, which they say will be
provided.
Bierne, in charge of the provost
guard, had entered a saloon to quiet
some trouble in which soldiers were
concerned when he was shot down. He
had nearly completed his thirty years
service and he was so highly respected
by officers and men that Gen. Bell or-
dered a divisional camp to be named
after him, an honor for an enlisted
man said to be unparalleled in army
history.
Cash nt Centralia, Ok.
By Associated Press.
Centralia, Ok., Oct. 19.—Three ban-
dits yesterday entered the First Na-
tional bank of Centralia, ordered four
officials and two customers of the
bank to lie down on the floor with
their face downward, rifled the cash
drawer and vault of approximately
$6,000 and then locked the six men in
the vault and escaped in an automo-
bile occupied by a fourth accomplice.
Two of the three robbers who en-
tered the bank were armed with revol-
vers and the third with a rifle. The
man armed with the rifle stood guard
near the door, while the fourth re-
mained in the automobile. One of the
robbers is said to have had his face
blackened.
As one of the bandits stepped to the
counter he leveled a revolver at the
bank officials and commanded them to
lie on the floor with their face down-
ward. After taking all the money in
the cash drawer one of the men went
into the vault and robbed the safe,
placing the loot in a sack. While the
robbery was in progress the customers
entered the bank and they were com-
pelled to lie on the floor.
When the bandits had emptied the
safe in the vault they commanded the
four officials and the two customers
to march into the vault. The vault door
was then locked and the robbers left
the building and jumped into the wait-
ing automobile.
A store clerk saw the bandits leav-
ing the bank building and, suspecting
robbery, entered the bank and released
the six men from the vault. A posse
was then organized and the bandits
tracked twelve miles, the trail finally
becoming lost and the chase aban-
doned.

Campaign Against Villa Promises to Be
Active.
By Associated Press.
Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. 19.—Supple-
mental assurances from Gen. Carranza
that he is beginning a new and vigor-
ous campaign against Villa were re-
ceived by his representatives on the
Mexican-American joint commission.
The head of the de facto Mexican gov-
ernment asserted all available troops
would be used in the pursuit of the
bandit.
The American commissioners re-
viewed at the joint session a carefully
prepared statement of the Mexican
claims as to conditions, as well as pro-
posals for restoration and mainten-
ance of peace along the -frontier. This
statement also included arguments de-
signed to show why the American
troops should be withdrawn from Chi-
huahua. ' , J
The Mexicans insist they are capable
of driving Villa and other outlaws
away from the border, but the Ameri-
cans’ attitude is that they must demon-
strate ability to do more than that.
The Americans insist that any agree-
ment affecting the control of the bor-
der must be based upon a reasonable
indication that the Mexican authorities
are capable of maintaining effective
government in the interior.
It was learned today that the troops
sent northward yesterday were not in-
tended for the campaign against Villa,
but to relieve troops at Aguas Calientes
and Zacatecas, who in turn would be
sent north to Torreon to relieve others

The equine survivor of the Carrizal
fight had been in the Carranza cavalry
since it was captured by a Mexican sol-
dier at Carrizal. It was recognized in
Juarez by an American and upon being
informed that the mare had belonged
to the dead officer Gen. Gonzales or-

Second Annual Conference Opened at
Dallas This Morning.
By Associated Press.
Dallas, Tex., Oct. 19.—The second
annual single tax conference, under
the auspices of the Single Tax League
of Texas, was opened here today for
a two days’ session, by President Roy
Bedichek of Austin. Two hundred or
more delegates from Texas and Okla-
homa were expected to be on hand for
the conference.
Matters pertaining to the single-tax
method of taxation were foremost on
the program, including discussions and
addresses on the subject. J. J. Pas-
toriZa, tax commissioner of Houston,
and widely known for his advocacies
in tax reform, is treasurer of the or-
ganization and will have a prominent
part on the program.
Among the matters to be discussed
are, the future of tenant farmer in
Texas, and the increasing number of
persons who do not own their homes
in the cities. It was predicted by some
delegates that, within a few years the
advocates of single taxation would
have resolved themselves into a strong
political factor.

Indianapolis, Oct. 19.—Resolutions ad-
vocating a more simple farm-loan law,
action to alleviate car shortage, and
asking congress to increase the ap-
propriations available for the office
of marketing, are in the hands of the
resolutions committee of the National
Farm congress, in session here today.
The resolutions committee is the most
important in the congress, as prac-
tically all of the action is started by
this committee. The committee or-
ganized yesterday with Joshua Strange
of Marion, Ind., chairman, and J. H.
Patten of Belten, S. C., secretary.
The delegates to the congress who
submitted the resolution dealing with
the farm-loan law declare in their
opinion the law is not simple enough
and as it stands keeps many who need
money from applying and obtaining it.
Although the meeting place of the
1917 congress will be left to a commit-
tee to decide after the close of the
present session, President H. E. Stock-
bridge says Jacksonville, Fla., and
Houston, Tex.,, will extend invitations
for next year. Women prominent in
the work of the organization addressed
a woman’s meeting this afternoon.

New York, Oct. 19.—More than 400,000
sailors from practically every corner
of the world have been served in some
capactiy during the eighty-eighth year
of The American Seamen’s Friend so-
ciety, according to its annual report
just made public. The largest part
of the institution’s work was done in
the port of New York but affiliated
organizations were active in Glouces-
ter, Mass., Norfolk and Newport News,
Va., New Orleans, Galveston, Rio de
Janeiro and Stockholm, Sweden.
The report of the' society reveals
that wap times have called for a con-
siderable increase in facilities of the
society. During the past year gifts, in-
cluding legacies, amounted to $82,611,
which sum had to be widely divided
among the many departments of the
work.
During the year 181,000 seamen were
registered at the New York headquar-
ters of the society. More than $25,000
was handled for these men, and 41,598
sailors were lodged at the society’s
home overnight at an average cost of
thirty cents. Free beds were provided
for about two thousand men and free
meals for more than one thousand.
A novel feature of the society’s work
is the furnishing of free loan libraries
to ships at sea, and during the year
176 new libraries were sent out. This
increases the' total number of libraries
distributed by the society to 27,413,
which contain 641,000 volumes and
have been accessible to more than halt
a million.

Special to The Tribune.
: Chicago, Oct. 10.—The Evening Post
says that the proposal of Armour &
Co., made public recently, to declare
■ a stock dividend of 400 per cent, thus
increasing the capital to $100,000,000,
following so closely the declaration
by Swift & Co. of a $25,000,000 cash
dividend, to be followed by the issu-
1 ance of new stock to the same amount
to sell at par, thus increasing this com-
pany’s capital to the $100,000,000 mark,
calls attention to the fact that prob-
ably nowhere in the world is con-
centrated so much business as is done
in the square mile of territory known
as the Union stockyards of Chicago.
The combined capital stock and bond-
ed indebtedness of the companies op-
erating there approaches that of the
world’s premier corporation, United
States Steel. The surplus' of the com-
bined companies is of an amount com-
paring with that of the Steel corpor-
ation, and the volume of business done
each year exceeds that of the Steel
corporation even when its plants are
running at capacity to fill the demand
for shell steel abroad and industrial
needs at home.
The total aggregate' business of the
packing companies will aggregate close
to $1,500,000,000 a year. According to
reports, the business of Swift & Co.
alone for 1910 crossed the $600,000,000
mark. Armour is said to be doing close
to a half billion dollars a year in gross
business. The other concerns’ annual
turnover is well up in the hundreds
of millions.
Of course, not all the business is
done from the Chicago stockyards. The
packers have branches all over the
country, and at least two of them are
now reaping large profits from their
plants in South America.
The packing business more than al-
most any other, has been a personal
business. It was developed by a few
men of great initiative and broad
vision. It remains in the hands of the
same families that built it’up. Armour
& Co., at least, is a close corporation.
The Swift stock has become more wide-
ly distributed than any other, being
listed on the New York, Boston and
Chicago stock exchanges. But its con-
trol is still centered among the sons
of the founders of the business in Chi-
ca.
The packing industry is one which
has proved its utility and efficiency,
and has served the public at a profit so
small, it is claimed, that many a farm-
er finds it cheaper to ship his hogs to
Chicago and buy his winter’s supply
of meat here and have it shipped back
than to kill his own hogs on the farm.
The packers make their profits on the

State Commissioner of Agriculture
Warns Against Overproduction.
By Associated Press.
Austin, Oct. 19.—Farmers of Texas
are being warned by Fred W. Davis,
state commissioner of agriculture,
against overproduction of cotton in
1917. Commissioner Davis has pointed
out that it would be far better for the
farmers to raise 3,000,000 bales next
year and get 20 cents per pound, than
to raise 6,000,000 bales and get only
10 cents per pound.
In a statement, Commissioner Davis
