BIG REGIONAL BANK | In the Red Cross hospital here are eighty-seven federal and thirteen rebel District Should Include Big Te » fitory, Financiers Assert. New York, Jan. 6.—Creation of a regional reserve bank of commanding importance in New York was urged at the first hearing held by the tem- porary, commission from Washington. The. hearing was conducted by Sec- retary McAdoo of the treasury de- partment and Secretary Houston of the department of agriculture. A number of New York's leading bank- ers appeared. The opinion was expressed by many of the witnesses that in order to cre- ate a regional reserve bank which could maintain its position in the financial centers of America and not be overshadowed by the huge re- sources of the clearing house banks and outside institutions, it would be necessary to include practically the whole Northeast in one region. Charles A. Conant, financial expert, said that the number of regional banks should be kept as smalf as pos- sible. His opinion was that the en- tire territory northeast of the Potomac river, including Pennsylvania, should be embraced in one district. Soh bob a + + RONG ARM SQUAD TO RESUME DUTY.

PROPOSE TO FIGHT TO DEATH Federals Have No Intention of Seek- ing Refuge Over Border. Ojinaga, Mex., Jan. 6.—(Via army line to Marfa)—All doubt as to the in- tention of the Northern division of the Mexican federal army td defeat the rebels or to stay here until every soldier has died through the exhaus- tion of ammunition, was dispelled by General Francisco Castro and General Ynez Salazar in interviews given by them at headquarters. Retreat of federal soldiers across the border to the United States terri- tory would be induced only by some unexpected event, according to the commanders, and even if all soldiers deserted, the generals say, they would remain and die at their posts. General Salazar is commander of the federal volunteers, while General Castro, suffering from hand, is commander of the general! | forces. The belief that so large and so im-! portant a division of the Mexican | army would ask for asylum in a for-j flight of the army from Chihuahua ‘about five “weeks Ago. “It is thought that we came to the! border so that if we were pursued by Villa’s rebels we could step across the border,” said General Castro. “Such a plan was preposterous. Communication Opened. “Our forces evacuated Chihuahua | because we had been isolated there. | We had no way to obtain money to) pay the soldiers who remained loyal to General Huerta, and we had no means of communicating with the war department at Mexico City. Our duty was to open a line of communication with the government and escort from Chihuahua citizens who feared they would be murdered by Villa. We se- the best natural fortifications in the world. It also offered a source of communication with Mexico City, as well as a port through which we might get provisions. The position is here impregnable.

EIGHT OF CREW RESCUED Many Vessels Stood by In Hope of Rendering Assistance, but Only One Succeeded in Getting Near Enough to Accomplish Any Good.

The fate of the others is believed to have their dot and pay their personal expenses from it.

IMMENSE DAMAGE RESULTS Storm Along Atlantic Coast Very De- structive to Property. i New York, Jan. 6—The New Jer- sey and Long Island coasts, famed for their summer resorts, vacation and permanent homes and fishing villages, suffered a property loss estimated at from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 in the hurricane that swept in from the sea and raged for two days. Seabright, N. J., which was swept by a violent storm on Christmas night, when an estimated loss of half a million dollars resulted, was again the center of the gigantic waves. More than 100 persons were made homeless and the summer cottages of New York and Philadelphia business men tum- bled into the sea, as did the Octagon hotel, one of the largest summer re- sorts along the Jersey coast. The town will appeal for state and federal aid in the construction of a sea wall { | | | | | Cream am i HOPE T0 REGAIN LOST BUSINESS Express Companies Agree to | Sweeping Cut in Rates. “TAKE EFFECT ON FEB. 1 | In Some tnstances Reductions Are More Than Fifty Per Cent, Particu- larly Small Packages, Where the Parcel Post Is a Dangerous Com- petitor. St. Paul, Jan. 6.—New express rates | which go into effect Feb.1, 1914, in- | conformity with an order of the in- | terstate commerce commission, will |include such substantial from the present rates that the new | order of things is expected to revelw | tionize the express business of the entire country and make the carriers close competitors with the parcel | post for certain classes of business. | In some instances the reductions are {more than 50 per cent. This is true | especially of the rates on smaller | packages, the handling of which has | been shown the parcel post to be a | dangerous competitor. But although substantial reductions mle been ordered in the small pack- rates, ‘the parcel post charges on | ave: -pound packages are still a few cents lower than the new express rates. In some instances the express rates on ten-pound packages will be | lower than the parcel post rates, es- | pecially on long hauls, and a similar condition will exist with respect to twenty-pound packages. Parcel Post Leads in Vicinity. In the first and second parcel post zones, which include territory within 150 miles of St. Paul, Postmaster Yanish believes the parcel post will continue to do the bulk of the small package business. The rates by par- cel post in these zones are 9 cents for five pounds, 14 cents for ten pounds, and 25 cents for twenty pounds. Duluth is in the second zone. The new express rates for Duluth ter- ritory are expected to exceed this rate. Managers of express companies hav- ing offices in St. Paul say the new rates, which will affect every city in the United States, are agreeable to the express firms. Some of them frankly admit their companies have lost much small package business since the inauguration of the parcel post and they believe the reducéd ex- press rates will restore much of this business to its original channels. The express representatives contend the public seldom has complained of ex- press company service and that criti- cism largely has been direscted against rates.

Minneapolis, Jan. 6.—The first skating fatality of the winter in Min- neapolis occurred when Hiram Hoiby, nineteen years of age, a senior at \ North high school, dropped dead from overexertion after four hours spent on the ice at North Commons.
