Three Generals of Ojinaga Gar
rison Gst Safely Away
REBELS TAKE MEXICAN TOWN
Rush to United States as Villa's Men
Come Up and United States Army
Officers Have Their Hands Full,
Now that General Villa Is in posset
jlon of Ojinaga, Mex., It Is the rebel
leader's Intention to begin his cam
paifen against Mexico City at once.
Northern Mexico Is In the handH ot
'.he rebels.
Today saw thousands of Villa's loyal
jrmy take trains southward for Tor-
reon, with a view toward bringing
that stronghold Into subjection at the
earliest possible moment, all the fed
erals in Chihuahua state having now
been disposed of.
As Villa did at Juarez, after the
battle near there, he refused to per
mit foreigners to enter Ojinaga, so it
is not positively known how many
federal prisoners have been executed.
Twenty-eight hundred '.federal sol
diers, six Mexican generals, 200,000
rounds of ammunition, two cannon,
four large fieldpieces and 15,000
civilian refugees are in the custody
of the United States army border
patrol.
It is now generally agreed that Gen
erals Pascual Orozco, Jose Salazar and
Antonio Rojas, the federal volunteer
generals mot wanted by Villa, have
with 300 or 400 loyal followers made
their escape. It is also said that they
were Joined by General Marvelo Cara
veo, another volunteer general.
The rebels captured between 300
and 400 prisoners, the most of them
volunteers and all of these have been
executed.
The total rebel loss in killed is said
to have been fewer than fifty. The
federal loss on the battlefield will be
over 100, not counting executions. The
list of wounded on both sides will be
heavy. There are more than 300
rebel and federal wounded now belni?
cared for by the Red Cross in Presidio
and of these the great majority are
federals.
The distress of the refugees Is in
tense. They have scant food and no
shelter, Men, women, children, dogs,
chickens and cattle are packed to
gether in a space covering several
acres. About them are scattered a'l
the goods and baggage which they
brought in fleeing from the Ojinaga
bottle.

CLEARANCE
Jarv. 15th and
Urgent requests for the immediate
removal of the soldiers and re'iigens
to some other place were spnt y
Major McNamee to the war depart
ment. General Francisco Castro, one of the
federal generals, declared that men
deserted when the rebels heptin
charging and that it was Impossible
to hold them, but the men insist that
they ran out of ammunition and were
told by their officers that they might
make their way to the United States
as rapidly as possible. The soldiers
themselves appear perfectly happy
and contented.
MANIA TO KILL PRESIDENT
Young Philadelphia Man Goes to the
Hospital.
Joseph Gorman, the twenty-four-year-old
Philadelphia . street car con
ductor, who wants to kill President
Wilson, was sent to the Philadel
phia hospital after he was declared
too dangerous a man to be at liberty.
Gorman walked into the office of
Chief Postal Inspector Cortelyou and
calmly announced that he had an un
controllable desire to kill the presi
dent of the United States. He said
medicine which affected his mind had
been given him and created in him
i mania to slay the president.
The doctor who gave him the medi
cine was summoned. He said that
the man was suffering from alcoholic
dementia with a homicidal mania and
should be locked up.

TO FREE THAW
Commissioners Make Report on
Harry's Condon
DECLARE HE'S NOW ALL RIGHT
Federal Judge Aldrich Is Told That
Man Who Killed Stanford White Is
Better and Would Not Be Menace.
Harry K. Thaw would not be a pub
lic menace if he were released ou bail,
according to the report of the coin
mission appointed by Federal Judge
Aldrich at Concord, N. II., to inquire
Into the stale of Thaw's mentality.
The report says the commission
finds Thaw Is not now aflllcted with
any of the mental disease from which
he was suffering when he slew Stan
ford White.
The commission further states by
its written report that its members
have formed a unanimous and posi
tive opinion as to the state of Thaw's
mind at the time of the homicide, but
refrain from expressing that opinion
because the scope of i's Inquiry does
not. permit of an opinion on this point.
The report Is signpd by all members
of the commission. In its opening page
of the somewhat exhaustive report
the commissioners say that they went
carefully over the case book of the
Matteawan hospital covering the
period from Feb. 1, 1908, to Aug. 17,
1913, when Thaw escaped.
It also examined transcripts oT all
other legal proceedings, including
various direct and cross examinations
of Thaw for homicide. The commis
sion refers to the public hearing which
it gave on Jan. 7 at which only wit
nesses in favor of Thaw appeared and
then concluded its report as follows:
"To determine the immediate ques
tion before us our Inquisition was
necessarily directed to these points:
"First, careful physical examination
to determine the presence or absence
of structural of functional disturb
ance of the nervous system.
"Second, the conduct of IJarry K.
Thaw since his committal to the Mat
teawan state Hospital on February,
190S, to the present time.
"Third, whether he Is now suffer
ing from such a disease of the mind
or whether his condition of mind may
be of such character as to predispose
to acts of violence independently of
the narrower question whether su"h
acts actually have been committed
since his confinement or not.

its attention to facts, preferring to at
tach' little importance for its purpose
to the conflicting opinions of expert
and other witnesses.
"In our opinion It is reasonah'y
probable that Harry K. Thaw's liberty
under bail would not be dangerous or
a menace to the public peace and
safety."
TURNING POINT NOT REACHED
Little Change to Business Steel Out
look Encouraging.
Dun's Review of Trade says this
week:
"There is little tangible evidence as
yet that the turning point in business
has been reache'd, but sentiment is
more hopeful. Wholesale trade Is
rather more active, while retail de
mands have broadened under the
stimulus of the usual clearance sales
and more seasonable weather in some
sections.
"Many buyers are beginning to ap
ppar in the dry goods market, and al
though conservatism is the rule in the
matter of future purchases, stocks are
low and requirements large. Woolen
and worsted mills are fairly well en
gaged on old orders and wool is
moving steadily.
"While the demand for iron and
steel is still confined mainly to actual
needs, some Increase in business is
apparent and the situation Is more
encouraging."

Loan Shark Tolman Makes Offer to
Governor Glynn.
A new proposition for the pardon of
Daniel H. Tolman, money lender
serving a six months' term for usury,
is under consideration by Governor
Glynn of New York. It amplifies the
previous offer of Tolman and his as
signees, proposing to surrender un
conditionally approximately.. $500,000
in notes, embracing principal and In
terest, in return for the remission of
the remainder of the sentence.
The notes are thot ? of nearly 20,000
borrowers from Tolman in New York.
Tolmnn's term has a little more than
two months to run. It is said the new
proposal, if accepted, will remove the
possibility of any future attempt to
realize on the notes.

Congressman's Charges House
Attorney General; Probe Started
. A representative of the department
of justice is now in Atlanta making an
invti, gallon of the charges against
officials of the federal penitentiary
contained in data received at the do
puitment from Congressman Howard
of Georgia.
Attorney General McReynolds gave
out tliis information, intimating that
a searching Inquiry would be niad!.
The charges that Congressman Howard
alleges are not considered as of great
importance by Mr. Mclleynolds, but it
was felt by the department that there
should be a thorough probe.
"The evidence I presented to Mr.
Mclteynolds was of so serious nature
that a rigid investigation must re
sult," said Mr. Howard. "I shall see
that the affair is not 'whitewashed.'
Among accusations made by persons
said to be familiar with prison condi

Warden W. C. Hawk has a model
