Unless they are successful in so doing the general said, they would be sent back to the ranks of the patrolmen and given beats in the various districts. Raids Continuing ‘While Gen. Butler has shaken up the executive personal of the police, raids on questionable resorts were be- ing conducted in nearly every district in the city. They continued far into the night and resulted in scores of arrests and the confiscation of many stills and quantities of mash and high powered beer. Police lieutenants af- ter making the rounds of their dis- triets reported that every known re- sort in the tenderloin was closed tight and that not a singie gambling house was operating. Hotels and Clubs Next Supt. of Police Mills announced that the drive would be carried into hotels and clubs where liquor has been opernly displayed. *“The day is past,” he said, ‘“when, with the knowledge of police banquets can be | givén in high class hotels by the four hupdred or anybody else, with a side room availlable where the guests can llquor wip all they want to. We are going to raid these places in the same way we raid dives and resorts in which liquor is sold.” SITUATION IS DESPERATE Frésh Government Troops Are Push- ing on to Attack Huasteca, Mexico —Rebels Hard Pressed in Vera Cruz. Tampico, Mexico, Jan. 11.—Fresh government troops arrived here today ontheir way to Huasteca to take part in the attack en Tuxpam. The situation of the rebels at Vera Cruz, thelr headquarters, is described as desparate through lack of funds The action of the United States in de- claring an arms embargo against them is also sald to have caused to moralization among the rebels. Jorge Prieto Laurens, one of the principal supportérs of Adolfo de la Huerta, the rebel leader, recently ar- rived at Tuxpam and is reported to have demanded a loan of 20,000 pe- sos from each oil company having representatives there, giving them five days in which to deliver the mopey. Chte devices are to the effect that the rebéls have ordered suspensions of the pumping operations of the Hu- asteca, Aguila and Mexican petroleum companies which is taken here to in- dicate that the oil men refused their demands for money. Journeymen Plumbers’ f State Convention Here The convention of the State Associa- tion of Journeyman Plumbers and Steamfitters will be held in this city tomorrow and Sunday. It is expected that about 25 or delegates will be present at the meetings on those days. SEE MANY IMPROVEMENTS Hartford, Jan, 11.—Becretary Chas. P.
