WASHt.VOTOV. April 12. Deep po1ltlr.il
Interest centres on the nnnress to bo made
by President Wilson tomorrow night nt
the Common Council Club's bntvtuct to
Democratic Htato chairmen from all parts
of the country. While friends -of tho
President today predicted he would studi
ously nvold any strong polltloil utterances,
belief prevailed thnt he would nt least
enter Into n discussion of what he believes
the Administration has necompllshed thus
far and whnt he miiy have in mind If
permitted another four years.
The President's political ndvUers. how
ever, have urged him to stay clear nf a
discussion of party policies nt this time.
They point out that the President does
not know yet who will oppose him nt the
next election or whnt his opponents may
etand for, or, In fact, anything about the
opposition.
It Is deemed not Improbable that the
President may answer some of the criti
cisms by Colonel Itoosovelt and others
during tho recent Mexican mid Interna
tional dlfllcultles. Ills friends hopo to
hear him fire n few shots nt tho Colonel.
But the feeling prevails among Demo
cratic, leaders that nt the present time
the President would have everything to
lose nnd nothing to gain If he precipi
tated a partlsnn political discussion by
"starting something" In his nddress.
These Democrats feel that tho wisest
course Is for the Admlnlsl ration to sit
tight and do nothing that will "rock the
boat."

WASHINGTON. April 12. Olllelnls of
the Department of Justice admitted this
afternoon that the revolution In Mexico,
bended by (ienoral Felix Diaz, nephew
I of the old dictator, wns. causing them
grave concern. It wns stated authorita
tively that In the last few dnys the depart
ment had sent nddltlounl ngents to places
along tho border where Dlna supporters
aro reported to be active. The plot to
seize Juarez, which wns frustrated, bus
mnde olllelnls realize that scores of these
plottei-H nro still working on L'nlted States
territory.
Department olllelnls said today that the
statement thnt W. K. D. Stokes, of New
York, was financing the Dlux t evolution
w-ns false. They said that Stokes' rela
tions with Dlax had been Investigated nnd
tiiat they were certain the Now Yorker
wns not supplying nny funds for Diaz.

Kti PAKrt. Tex.. April 12. Thirty-two
followers of Francisco Villa nr'e reported
to have been killed and forty others cap
tured In a light between Mexicans and
l'nlted States troopers nt Tmya. a small
station on the Mexican National Hallway,
between Jlmlnez and Pnrral.

It Is not known 'definitely whether the
outlaw Is living or dead.
llecauso of tho extended advance of
tho American first line, olllelal confirma
tion of the story of tho fight had not
been received, although reports in private
ndvlccs from Jlmlnez and Pnrral relative
to the engagement wore regarded as au
thentic. The detachment of Mexicans encounter
ed at Troya Is said to have breti a rear
guard for tho main body of Villistns, which
Is falling back toward Ton con and Du
rango City.
When the American scouts got within
sight of the ambushed Mexicans tho latter
began firing, which revealed their hiding
places, and tho Americans wero thus cn
nhlcd to keep out of the trap.
The scouts galloped back to the main
body of cavnlrymcn and reported a largo
force of Vllllstas in hiding. The Ameri
cana rushed forward u short distance nnd
then dismounted, hiding their horses In
the foothills. Then they advanced on foot
with their carbines unslung ready for In
stant action. Onco within range of the
Mexicans the troopers advanced in short
rushes, liring a volley nnd then throwing
themselves upon their faces.
Just as the fighting was hottest a rail
way train moved Into tho zone of the
fire. As tho bullets began to sing around
tho locomotive the englner stopped his
train and then backed out of the danger
sphere ns rapidly ns steam could tako
him.
It was the engineer of this trnln who
took the first word of tho fight to Jlmlnez,
from which point It was telegraphed to
Juarez nnd Kl Paso.
These ndvlres from the Interior show
no halt had been made In American pur
suit by the report of Villa's denth. Amerl
nn cavalry today wre far betotf Pnrral
and following closely tho trail Villistns
are known to have tnken. Other Ameri
can columns had been so distributed ns to
form nlmost a complete circle around tho
country where Villa wns believed to bo
moving.
Ther are onlv two poslblltles which
nre accepted here ns true In the present
situation either Villa Is dead and his pur
suit Is automatically ended, or he Is fnr
to tho south In Central Durango.
HRMKVMS VI MA DKAIJ.
The report of Villa's cfeath wns nc
rcpted ns highly probable by General Her
tnnl. the Carrnii7.il commander nt Casns
Grnndes. who now Is In Juarez.
"Thero Is only one doctor In the coun
try where Villa now Is." said General
llertanl. "nnd If blood poison hns set in
Villa's wounded leg. as my Information
tins It. this doctor enn do nothing, even
If ho has n chance. Witnesses who snw
Villa told me his left leg was swollen and
gangrenous."
General llertanl said that Villa had
not more than SO men with him. The
Villa band which his troops encountered
In the Madera section Monday consisted
of 23 members, of whom 14 were taken
prisoners. The survivors, earning their
wounded, escaped Into the hills.
T1'M,S OF VILLA'S WOCND.
Corroboration of the reports Unit Villa
has been wounded was received by of
ficials from J. II. Locke, an ex-newspaperman
from the Stntes.
"I know Villa was wounded,"- said
Locke. "I saw him n few days before the
fight and I have learned from old resi
dents' of Guerrero. Mexican friends of
mine, how he wns lifted Into a carriage
aftpr the Guerrero light and wns carried
away before the Americans came Into the
town next day."
Locke Is the only American who has
given General Pershing what the General
considers reliable Information thnt Villa
sustnlned a bad wound. Doctor 1'stellc,
an elderly American physician, said to
have set Villa's leg, cannot bo found.
ranza for the first time has permitted
the use of the Mexican Central Itnllrond
Itf sending supplies from the border to
General Pershing's expedition In Mexico.
General Funston today notified the Wnr
Department thnt nine cars of oats and
hay had, been forwarded to American Con
sul Letcher nt Chihuahua over the Mexi
can Central's lines. The supplies will bo
forwarded to General Pershing's field
bnses by Consul Letcher.
It bad been slated that General Car
ranza would nllow the use of the Mexican
Northwestern Uoad only for shipping sup
plies to the American troops. The Mexi
can Central lines provide a much more
direct route. Ofllelnls took General Fun
ston's telegram to mean that Carranza Is
exhibiting a real desire to co-operate with
the American forces In the pursuit of
Villa.

I How Piano Dealers I If
A .Endorse Cunningham g c
I Pianos ,-I;.
r r s
z
A Cunningham Piano was advertised by a carry-all store onseveral
occasions, the original price being given as $400, their price $95, but5 fearing
we'd get the number of the instrument and publish its pedigree, they carefully
pasted a piece of cardboard over its number and otherwise mutilated the in
strument. On each occasion this Cunningham Piano Avas advertised the sales
men of the store referred to were instructed to say to a customer that the in
strument was already sold.
The history of this particular Cunningham Piano is as follows: It was
sold to a Mr. Jas. Toy, of 4908 Lancaster Avenue, on July 27, 1893, which is
now nearly twenty-three years ago, and, we suppose, was purchased by the
store in question for the purpose of attracting buyers, as Cunningham-made
Pianos always do. We don't object to our pianos being advertised by competi
tors if they come by them in an honorable way, but we are surprised at big
houses using the tactics that were common in the days of haphazard piano
selling. It seems to us, however, that some dealers must think it is yet a profit
able practice.
