In pur suance to the retrenchment plans made public last week, tho Pennsylvania rall "road yesterday annulled 118 passenger jralns on the lines east or nttsburgn ana ' Erie, and a large nutnber on the western lines. The 118 lines discontinued on the eastern lines Include the sixty-two specif ically named In the original announce ment and others formerly operated In connection with them, and ar in addition to the twenty-six discontinued some weeks ago when cutting down in passen ger service first started. Tho financial savings on tho eastern lines, It Is estimated, will run close to . J2.OOO.O0O per year, should the curtailment I be in force that long. On tho western lines. It is roughly calculated that the economies will effect a saving not greatly dissimilar.

U A WELSH. Ucai Forecaster nf Comparative FIGHT IN TORREON CONTINUES Brief Report from General Villa is Only News. DEFENSE IS VERY STRONG Lnconflrmcil Ilrport from Saltlllo Says I.nls Terrasas Has Snc ceedert in Making Llscapc from Chlhuahaa. CHIHUAHUA, Mex., April 2 10 a.m.) The situation at Torrcon is unchanged, according to officials here, and the Issue remains undecided. JCARBZ, Mcx., April 2,-Out of tho maze of reports and counter reports con cerning the activities of General Fran cisco "Villa at Torreon last nlcht and early today tho assumption was drawn that fighting continues. This was bacod on a telegram from Villa to General Car tatiTia late Inst night. Interest here also centered on tho re ported movements of reinforcements. for the federal troops of General Vclasco at Torreon. Villa's report to General Carransa last night. In which the former stated that fighting continued at Torreon, remained the only Information on the subject at noon. This report said that tho federals were putting up an unexpectedly stubborn de fonse and that heavy fighting was tak ing place In tho Canyon Del Huarache, ono of the strongest ot the federal de fenses. The canyon, so-called, is a baeln formed by three mountains, including Cerro de la Cruz, on the slopes of which part of Torreon Is built Villa'n Louses Hoary. CHIHUAHUA, Mex., March 3L-(Vla El Paso, Tex, April 2.) Tho rebel army In tho battlo with the Huerta forces at Torrcon had lost about 2,000 soldiers In dead and wounded up to today, accord ing to estimates based on the number of wounded reaching here. No estimate of the federal casualties was obtainable on this side, although the rebels insisted their firing had boon effective. The sixth train bearing wounded from the front arrived today and more train loads were reported as having passed Jimenez and Santa Rosalia on the way northward. The 'fact that about TOO dis abled soldiers were now here, gave, rise to the belief that an equal number of wounded "are either at the front or en routo north, and an estimated loss of (WO men would make rebel losses about 2,000 In fighting strength. Every train that came with wounded has been sent south with medical supplies. According to their own claims, the Villa forces still, have more than 10,000 In tho field. Termsaa Makes Escape, NEW ORLEANS, April 2.

Iilnd Will Come Home. WASHINGTON, April 2,-Prcsldent Wilson announced today that John Llnd, his personal representative In Mexico, would sail for tho United State from Vera Cruz tomorrow on a vacation, but would return to Mexico after ho had a rest. Federal reinforcements from, Saltlllo have reached Torrcon, according to a tel egram to the Mexican embassy here today from the Mexican consul at El Paso. The message adds that there seems to be little danger of tho city being taken by Villa. Tho number of federal troops was not given.

Ludwlg Nlssen, president of tho American Jewelers' Protective asso elation, however, admitted there was more smuggling of gems at present than there had been in many years.

AUGUSTINE, Fla., April l-Ftro early today destroyed five tourists' hotels, tho county court house and a number of residences. So far as known no lives were lost, though many guests at tho Florida, Munson, Clalrmont. Atlantic and Central hotels, which wore destroyed, es caped scantily clad. Tho guests had no time to save their personal belongings. The flames were checked after much proporty had been damaged. Nearly two blocks near the water front were destroyed. For a time tho business section of the city waa endan gered, but the flames finally were checked. Tho fire originated about 1 o'clock in the kitchen of the Florida, a largo wooden structuro, and spread rapidly. Firemen first turned tholr attention to rescuing guests of the Florida, many ot whom were carried down ladders. Oc cupants of the other hotels woro warned of their danger and many fled Into the streets without any attempt to save their personal belongings. The burned section was bounded by Charlotte, Treasury, Hypollta and St. Georgo streets. The loss Is estimated at between 3300,000 and 3750,000. Two Person Injured. Two persons wero Injured. An uniden tified woman was probably fatally hurt when she plunged from tho third story of a losldcnce. A. Llbby, a guest at tho Florida, suffered a broken leg In leaping from the second floor. The Vedder house, a famous landmark, containing valuable curios collected by tho St. Augustine Historical society, was among tho buildings destroyed. A company of militia today guarded the burned section to prevent looting; .' -The fire originated in the. second stoijj of the south wing of the Florida house, which was a frame structure, shortly be fore 1 o'clock. The building burned so rapidly that the flames were uncontrol lable and spread to surrounding frame buildings. Adjutant General Foster established an Information bureau In the plaza and every effort waa made, with tho help ot mllltla, to find friends and relativos of inquirers. Among tho first buildings destroyed was the St. John's county court house, supposed to have been a fireproof struc ture. It Is not believed that records In (Continued on Pago Two,; Supreme Court Has Docket Nearly Clear WASHINGTON, April 2.-Unprece-dented progress by the supreme court In itsyear'a work, becoming known today, brought embarrassment to lawyers all over the country. They have been caught unprepared to present their cases to the court nnd have been compelled to ask the tribunal to pans over case after case until next year. Chief Justloe White Is said to possess an ambition to clear the docket ot all cases awaiting argument except current business. When he became head of the court, a case waited almost three years before being heard. When the court ad journs the last of May for the summer it promises to be considering cages filed only a year before. Instead of hearing only the first 300 cases on the docket, as was the practice a few years ago, tho court this year may call cases as far along on the docket as number 600. The work during the year has been handicapped by the absence of Justice Lurton on account of illness, He has returned to Washington and Intends to resume work when the court convenes MOnday, brellas, silverware, clocks, trunks and traveling bags, white goods, wash goods, linens, musttns, aheeta and sheetings. The aggregate cash value of these stocks amounts wel Into the hundreds of thou sands. The purchase price has not been made public as yet, but It Is known that the average prlco paid Is hardly half of the invoice value. "While we knew that Mr. Brandeis In tended to secure as much of this stock as possible," said Mr. George Brandeis yes terday, "we had hardly hoped to obtain such an Immense amount, nor at such favorable terms. That a western con cern could so nearly absorb one of the leading stores of the east has been a big surprise in mercantile circles." To lie Shinned 'at Ouce. The stocks are now being rearranged for Immediate shipment from Now York, and should b;gln arriving In Omaha some time during the next week. No plana have yet been announced by the Brandeis Stores for the disposal ot this Immense shipment ot merchandise, but It is pre sumed that It wilt occasion a series ot the most unusual bargain sales ever held in this city.

A Jury's verdict revoking the will of the late widow of James A. Bailey, who waa P. T. Barnum's associate in tho circus business, was set aside today by Supreme Court Justice Tompkins. The revocation ot tho will was brought about by Mrs. Isabelle Hutchinson, a sister of Uio late Mrs. Ilolley. after a legal struggle that Involved nearly 31.000,000. Under the will Mrs. Hutchinson re ceived only an annuity of 310,000, while her two brothers and another sister divided the residuary estate valued at 34,000,000. If the decision of the trial jury had stood site would have shared thlH property equally with her brothers and slater. Mrs. Hutchinson contended that the showman's widow was unduly Influenced against her by their brother, Joseph T. McCadden. Justice Tompkins In grant ing a new trial decided that the verdict wav against the weight of evidence.

Metcalfe, who about a year mo was mads governor of the Pan rma zone, is expected in New York to day, and If Mr. Bryan does not switch htm to some Job which will partially compensate him for losing that 311,000 a year as governor of the zone, will prob ably land .In Lincoln noon. Just what the trouble was between Gov ernor Melcalfo and Secretary of State Bryan Is not known and may never come to light unless Mr. Metcalfe consents to talK whon ha gets back to Nebraska. It has been hinted that he was unable to get much satisfaction out of Mr, Bryan. In fact, It Is said that Mr.. Bryan has refused to tell why h'J allowed Metcalfe to be pried loose from -he job. There Is a strong feeling among demo crats that Metcalfe bus broken with Mr. Bryan and when he comes to Nebraska will got into the race for the democratic nomination for governor in order to de feat Brother Charley Bryan, who has hh eye on the same nomination. This gives color to the feeling among democrats that Mr, Bryan will try to fix things up with Metcalfe and give him a position In Washington which will keep him out of Nobraska, at least until after tho primaries. The democratic situation cannot be more aptly described than In the words ot a democrat this morning when dis cussing the democratic situation as to governor. He said In words more forcible than elegant: We have no candidate who can be clocted now Governor Morehoad has pulled out. Bergo can't anywhere near get his party vote. Charley Bryan can't do any better on account ot the feeling against his Brother BUI. Volpp is too darn wet to suit, most of us. W. H. Thompson has been defeated so much It will make him weak, and for the life of me I can't think ot anybody else that wants to take the chance." With the republicans It Is different. Nearly all ot the candidates mentioned so far will make strong men to head tho tloket. Senator Kemp, Senator Heaaty, Church llowe and J, I Kennedy are all strong men, whllo If the supreme court lets down the constitutional bars, there will be Walter George and Lieutenant Governor McKolvlo Jn the list. The feeling that there will be complete union of tho two factions In the repub lican party at the polls Indicates that with any of the above mentioned men at tho head of the ticket victory Is assured.
