WITHDRAW Quit VeraT:ruz and Sail fuL Home. MEXICAN TROOPS AT ONGE OCGUPY CITY Forces of General Aguilar Ad- vance as Americans Refire, Washington, Nov.. 24-—American troops, which have held Vera Cruz since last April are evacuating the city and sailing for home. Officials here expect sunset will see the Mexi- can flag floating again over the an- cient fortress of San Juan and the American troopers well on their way homeward across the gulf. Dispatches from Major General Funston and his furthest outposts had been withdrawn at 9 a. m. At 10 troops guarding the railroads at the approaches to the city were with- drawn and at 11 the embarkation was on in earnest. General Funston reported Constitu- tionalist troops under General Aguilar were taking possession of the city. Occupation of the Mexican port, in reprisal for Huerta’s insult to the flag at Tampico, has cost the United States more than a score of lives, some in battle and some from disease, and, ac- cording to some estimates, as much as $10,000,000. No Indemnity to Be Asked. But Mexico will be asked to pay no indemnity. Administration officials want that fact to stand out as an ad- ded evidence of the disinterested triendship of the United States for her Southern neighbors. General Funston has instructions to turn the city over to none of the Mexican factions and thereby avoid what might be construed as a recog- nition of one of them. His orders simply are to bring his troops away and leave the city to whichever fac- tion takes possession. The Fourth, Seventh, Nineteenth and Twenty-eighth infantry and the First battalion of the Fourth field ar- tillery and two squadrons of the Sixth cavalry will return to Galveston. The three regiments of marines will go to Philadelphia. Major General George Barnett, com- miandant of the marine corps, under instructions from Secretary Daniels, called upon Captain Walker N. Hill, now in Boston, to explain whether published reports were accurate which quoted him as saying Mexicans prob- ably would be Furning and looting Vera Cruz before nightfall, if the American forces left there. GERMANS PREDICT RUSSIAN RETREAT Berlin, Nov. 24.-—All the Berlin newspapers comment favorably and very hopefully on the possible out- come of the fighting in Poland. They express the opinion that these engage- ments may decide the entire Rusgsian campaign, if not the outcome of the war. The Lokal Anzieger has published an interview with an officer who speaks for the military aithorities. He says that in consequence of the rolling up of the Russian right wing by General von Hindenberg and the simultaneous attack of the Austrians on the Russian left a general Russian retreat, with the evacuation of Lem- berg, is only a question of time. In their previous attack, this officer says, the enemy operated in accord- ance with their program, but they have been forced to give up their war plans and face an entirely different situa- tion. Existing conditions were fore- seen by the German and Austrian commanders. Worthing, Eng., is to have a wo- man mayor next year in the person of Mrs. Elizabeth Chapman, a cousin of the late Joseph Chamberlain. Pioneer Want Ads Pay. NEBISH TOWNSHIP ORDERS PAYABLE.

Marie, Mich., Nov. 24— The steamers Sinola, Nipigon and Niko are long overdue and inquiries from here concerning them brought no information. If lost with their crews the death list numbers more than seventy, it is estimated. The Sinola, owned by G. A. Tom- linson of Duluth, left that port with the Edward F. Holmes and other ves- gels. The Holmes, which passed down early Friday, reported she had not sighted the Sinolo since shortly after leaving the Head of the Lakes. The Nipigon is owned by W. J. Har- low of Toledo and the Niko by the Hines Lumber company of ‘Chicago. All three ships may be in shelter, but unidentified wreckage has increas- ed anxiety as to their fate in the storm last week. Eighteen bodies have been reported recovered from the Curtis, Marvin and Peterson, which foundered. in the storm. CLERK FAINTS; BANDITS ROB Armed Men Enter Jewelry Store and Get $3,000 in Booty. Kansas City, Nov. 24—Two men armed with revolvers entered the jew- elry store of Benjamin Walkow on Main street and, after forcing the clerk to stand in a corner with hands uplifted, took money and jewelry val- ued at $3,000 and escaped. The clerk, who fainted from fright, was found unconscious on the floor by a custom- er a few minutes later. Steel Mills Resume Work. Chicago, Nov. 24—Two thousand men who were thrown out of employ- ment early last spring returned to work at the South Chicago plant of the Illinois Steel company when the rail and structural mills were Tre- opened. Arthur H. Young, superin- tendent of labor at the mills, was au- thority for the statement that the mills would be running to capacity within a few weeks. Supreme Judge Denies Plea. Washington, Nov. 24.—Justice La- mar has refused to issue a writ of er- ror to bring to the supreme court for review the conviction of Les M. Frank for the murder of Mary Tha- gan, a factory girl, in Atlanta, Ga. in 1913. Frank is under sentence of death.

BOMBARDMENT OF NIEUPOAT RENEWED Parls, Nov. 24—Renewed bomb- bardment of Nieuport is reported from the front, together with reports of “the greatest activity among the Germans all along the coast. - Back of thesGerman lines there is said to be considerable movement of troops and guns through Belgium to- ward the coast. Heavy guns have been mounted be- tween Knocke and Nieuport with the evident intention of returning the fire of the allied werships which have been bombarding the German lines. Ypres has again been bombarded after a partial cessation of fighting there. The town hall and market place were destroyed and the city, al- ready ruined, was further damaged. Reports from the champagne dis- trict and other points along the line indicate the Germans are reinforcing their trenches or endeavoring to build new ones out of range of allied artil- lery fire.
