City of Mexico. May 24.—-Not-
withstanding the official signing of
the peace pact t,he capital was more
nearly Isolated last night than It
been since the Inauguration of hostil-
ities. Ignorant, apparently, that
their commander In -chief has
brought the war to a close, one
small band of rebels under the lead-
ership of Candido Navarro Monday
night cut the National railroad at
a point near San Felipe, south of
San Lula Potosi. and another band
stopped all traffic over the Mexican
railroad by ripping out the rails and
burning a bridge near Huamantla.
Word was sent by Navarro’s men
to the management of the National
Raiyway not to run trains over that
division If the lives of passeng-rs
were to be respected, and those
responsible for the Interruption no-
tified the officials of the road not
to attempt repairs.
In both cases the orders were
obeyed. Believing that the rebels
In Morelos would Interfere with
traffic over the Cuernavaca branch
of the National railroad, the man-
agement sent, no train south yester-
day. The train which should have
arrlyed from Cuernavaca was aban-
doned at the order of Gov. Alcoron,
the rebel executive of Morelos.
The only line being operated out
of the city is the Inter-Oceanic, a
narrow-gauge railroad extending to
Vera Crux. The land wires -which
connect the capital with the cable
at Vera .Crust have also been cut
idea in.

The DermiAants are the First Per-
sons to lie CniVtiitil Coder the
New Federal Statute**—.ImFe
Russell 1’pheld Constltntionullty.
In the federal court this morning
penal bonds In the sum of $3,000
each were approved in the cases of
Basile Reonomedles and Bffle Hoke,
convicted at the recent sitting of
the Eastern district eouvt at Beau
mont on the charge of engaging In
the “White Slave Traffic.’’
The authorities at Beaumont were
at once notified.
These cases are somewhat noted
from the fact that they represent
the first convictions had under the
federal statute so designated.
It will he remembered that a fed-
eral court elsewhere declared the
law untenable ami unconstitutional
but it appears that Judge Gordon
Bussell took an entirely different
view of it and exhaustively reviewed
the case In his ruling denying a new
trial.
It is understood that the cases
will go to the supreme court of the
United States at once. #

THE NEW
MODEL
AWNINGS'
For Office Buildings
or Residences
wonderful improvement
A new style awning that
the ordinary patterns.
It rolls up like a window shade-—completely out of the way
when not in use.
It can be taken down in an instant, so that It can be stored
away during the winter mouths and protected from the weather.
The New Model Awning allows free passage of air through the
window at both bottom and top.
We have recently put up one hundred and sixty-eight of these
awnings on the new M. & P. Bank building. We are now
equipping the largest office building in Denison with them.
New Model Aynings cost no more than the common ones and
recovers for them only cost about half as much. ’ Come to our
store and see a model of this new awning—you'll like it.

Washington. May 24 —By an
overwhelming viva voce vote, after
a test roll call, of 214 to 57 on
motion to ratify the Constitution of
New Mexico only, th« house lust
night passed tho joint resolution
ratifying the Constitution of both
Arisonu and New Mexico, with pro-
visions resubmitting to the people
of Arizona the recall provision In
their constitution and submitting to
the people of New Mexico a provis-
ion, whereby they will be enabled
to more readily amend tlieir consti-
tution than Is proposed In their
submitted draft.
The statehood resolution debate
has dragged for a week or more.
Tho discussion has not been uni-
formly of a high order. On the re-
publican side Representative Kahn
of California made an exhaustive
argument ngalnt the bill, particu-
larly against the initiative, referen-
dum and recall, while Representa-
tive McCall of Massachusetts made
short, ablp speech against the re-
call of Judges.
On the democratic side Represen-
tative Hardy of Texas made the
most conspicuous argument for the
Initiative, referendum and recall
and for the admission of the two
Territories.
l/orimor Case.
Washlngtln, May 24.—The Dem-
ocratic solution of the manner of
the proposed 1-orhiicr investigation,
a» It has been worked out by Sena-
tor OtUbersrtn, was offered to the
senate rh the shape of a resolution
by Seuator Martin, the chairman of
the Senate democratic steering com
ir|ittee. This resolution Is more spiv
plflc in Its directions for tho con-
duct of the Investigation than either
the La Follette or the Dillingham
resolution,
The resolution submits to the
apparently Inevitable eondftlon that
the Investigation must be done by
flip Commut e on Privilege* and
ejections, as practically all of the
regular republicans and some of the
Democrats Insist Hint the resolution
shall take su«h a course. H nLso
ecognlzes the fact, that tf the Inves*
tigatlon Is left to a sub-committee
that subcommittee can not force at-
tendance or punish for contempt.
For these reasons the resolution
nrovides that the investigation shall
up conducted bv the full committee,
Itds held that even though the com-
mittee is loaded with senators who
voted last session to exonerate I/or-
Imer at the rale of ten Lorimer
men to five anti-Lorlmer men, there
are In this committee four senators
opposed to Imrlmer who are of the
fighting stripe and whose activities
would go far to insure an effective
investigation, in addition, the reso-
lution directed that the
committee invdtigftte “forthwith
and report as egrly as practicable"
and instructs the committee “to in-
quire fully Into and report upon the
alleged “jackpot." fund in its rela-
tion to the “lection of Lorlmer.
