OBREGON OCCUPIES QUERETARO
BROWNSVILLE, Tex., April 2.
For lack of an aviator, General Vil
la's expected aerial operations
against Matamoroa were delayed to
day. Villa officers Bought an Ameri
can flyer to operate an aeroplane re
ceived from Monterey, but balked at
paying $100 a day on a thirty-day
contract, which was the price de
manded by at least one aviator fron
this side of the line- It was said the
officers wou'd await the arrival of
an aviator from Monterey. Three
more aeroplanes are said to be on
their way from Monterey to the Villa
camp.
Operations to reduce Matamoras are
likely to continue to be slow, according
to Information reaching here, for the
reason that Villa has no means of speedy
communication. Railroads are so torn up
that save for cavalry military bodies can
make only a few miles' progress each
day.

vance of the Villa army.

Carransa Sends Order to Naeo.
DOUGLAS, Arli., April 2. General
Venustiano Carranza has ordered Col
onel P. Klias Calles, his commander In
Sonora, to refrain from any activltities
which might endanger life or property
on the American side of the border, ae
cornlng to an announcement today by
Calles. -
Calles said Carranza forwarded him a
copy of the telegram sent to the Btate
department at Washington In reply to
the warning against violation of neutral
ity along the borden given Calles In
Colonel C. M. O'Connor, commander of
the United States border patrol here.
Purely out of respect for the United
States, Carransa said his followers would
respect the neutrality of the fconora bor
der, but without regard for the Naco
agreement, negotiated with the Sonora
factions last December by Brigadier Gen
eral Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff of the
United States army. This agreement,
Carranza said, had been rendered void
by the almost Immediate violation of Its
terms by Governor Maytorcne in occu
pying Naco, Sonora, after both sides had
consented to evacuate It.

Lawyers for Roberts
Say Client Not Party
to the Conspiracy
INDIANAPOLIS, April i-Whl'.e ad
mitting that "a conspiracy existed In
Terre Haute for the purpose of stealing
the election of lust November," three
attorneys, representing five of the twenty-eight
men on trial In the federal court
here on charges of conspiracy to corrupt
that election, Insisted In their arguments
today that their clients were In no way
cennected with It. The attorneys also
discussed at length the rules of law that
all defendants arc presumed to be Inno
cent until proven guilty beyond a rea
sonable doubt, and that conviction cannot
be made on the evidence of uncorrooo-
rated co-defendants.
The attorneys said they admitted the
conspiracy because eighty-eight of the
men who had been indicted on the charge
had pleaded guilty. Charles J. Orblson,
attorney for Sheriff Dennis Shea and two
other defendants, attacked the character
of those who had pleaded guilty and ap
peared for the government, asserting
that "they volunteered Information, be
lieving that the more they confessed the
lighter would be their punishment."

Plague Costs Nearly
Six Million Dollars

their efforts fb prevent a further recur
rence of the scourge.
All the Infected animals are said to
have been killed and burled,, but officials

that there will be other sporadic eases of
the disease, yet it Is asserted that If pre
ventive measures are promptly resorted
to, there need be no fear of further se
rious spread of the malady.
Altogether more than 124,000 animals
have been killed because of the epidemic,
at a cost of between $5,000,000 and $6,000,
0u0, the expense of which has been
shared equally py the federal and state
governments.
