SCORES IN FIERCE CHIHUARUA FIGHT " Over Hundred' Bandits Slain | and Villa’s Chief Lieuten- ant Taken in Battle at Ousihuiriachic, DE FACTO LOSSES HEAVY ‘Ramos, Heading Carranzistas, Wounded and Calls for Medical Aid. MANY CAPTIVES ARE TAKEN Chihuahua City, Mexico, Sept Over 100 Villa followers were killed, the bandit leader, Baudelio Uribe, was taken prisoner and heavy casualties suff #>d by Carranza forces in a ter- rific fight at Cusihuiriachic, an im- portant mining center about fifty miles southwest of Chihuahua City, according to a message received this afternoon by General Trevino from General Hatias Pamos, who was him- self slighttly wounded. Details of the fight were few and were appended to the request-of Gen- eral Ramos for surgeons and medical supplies. A hospital corps detachment was accordingly rushed to the scene by train. Garrison Aids Ramos. It is stated that the garrison at Cusihuiriachio co-operated with the forces of Ramos, but whether they were .attacked or had been the ag- gressors does not appear. Randelio Uribe, leader of the band and Villa's chief lieutenant, was the | originator of the idea of cutting off the ears of captured goverment sol- diers. Many others of his command | are reported to have been made prisoners. News of the fight was also received from the telegraph operator at Santa Ysabel, who added nothing to the re- port of General Ramos. The general's official report was sent by way o the town to which the hospital train has been dispatched. Thirty-three Milesy By Train. Santa Ysabel is thirty-three miles by train from Chihuahua City. The Mexican Northwestern railway makes a loop to Cusihuiriachic from Santa Ysabel, while the direct distance be- tween the two towns is about thirty- five miles. . 3 Troops continue to pour into Chi- huahua City from the south to par- | (OURT REVELERS THE OMAHA DAILY BEE To Arrive After Noon, Review| Parade, Have Dinner at the | Fontenelle and Speak | at the Auditorium. | |MRS.

It was the second evening of the big jubilee. The miles and miles of streets festooned .and arched with in- candescent lights and decorated with illuminated pictures of the governors of the state, drew the crowds as they haye seldom been drawn, %here was a “double bill,” too, for the Week of Wonderful Windows had its start. Crowds stood in front of many of the stores, crowds that extended out across the street and necessitated ‘the services of police- men to let the street cars get past. Some of the stores had manikins for the better display of their garments. Highway Crowded. On the king's highway, at Fifteenth { and Capitol avenue, there was a vast crowd of merrymakers. ter of the pleasure-seckers mingled of the various shows, the music: of the bands and organs, the “strange and curious sounds” of the “ferocious wild beasts of the jungle, poisonous serpents,” and = other attractions brought here at enormous expense | for the delight and edification of the masses. It was a daggerous place for a | nickel or a dime to wander alone and | thousands of nickels and dimes ac- ‘companied by their owners were left at the various “mysteries,” “wonders," “marvels” and “thrills.” Weather Man Is Good. The weather was perfect.

There is no “rough stuff” at all, such as was com- mon in the days before confetti was | prohibited.

Unions having a tota: membership of 164,000 are to vote on the strike today. One fof the most important of these organizations is the New York Ouilding Trades council. It was announced that 7,000 brewery workers will strike today, but it is stated that these men, have a trade agreement which permits them ‘o have a holiday at this segson every year. Members of the trades, coma)osin Ernst Amer- United Hebrew rad one of the largest divisior of trade unionism in the city, are celebrating the Jewish new year today.

Violence broke out dgain ‘foday | when a crowd of strike sympathizers attacked a Grand street crosstown car with stones, shattering windows and driving the motorman, conductor and passengers into the street. The stone throwers were dispersed by the police. Efforts of the Third Avenue system to run cars in Westchester county to- day for the first time since the trac- tion strike began resulted in attempts on the part of strikers or their sym- pathizers to cripple the lines by cut- ting feed wires, soaping the raif; and pulling trolley poles off the wires.

H. Alexand- er of Childress, who maintains that of all the swine country in the great Lone Star state, the Panhandle is the best. He declared that Texans rea- lize the Omaha show bids fair to be far away above any porcine stock exposition heretofore attempted in the United States. Texans Want the Best, Mr. Alexander wants it distinctly understood tht he and the other Tex- ans who are coming to Omaha to buy breeding stock, want nothing but the best. “Some people," he ,allowed, “seem to think Texas isn't much of a hog country and that when we need breeding stock, any old thing will do. But we want the best—the very best, and that's why we selected the Na- tional Swine show as the place at which to get it." Duroc-Jerseys and Poland-Chinas are the big breeds in the Panhandle country, Mr. Alexander explained. He is here to “pick up” some extra fine breeding stock, remarking that he, as well as his fellow Texans, were will- ing to pay for that kind of “stuff.” E. Z. Russell, associate editor of the Twentieth Century Farmer and super- intendent of exhibits at the National Swine show, was informed yesterday that five cars of fancy stock had been shipped to Omaha from the Okla- home state fair at Oklahoma City.

Utah is wet. “It is not the saloon, nor the dis- tiller, but the brewery that is the greatest evil of all liquor traffic agen- cies,” Dr. Landrith said. "It owns the fixtures of the saloon and all too often it owns the mayor and legisla- tors also.” Dr. Landrith's remarks were occa- sioned in part by what he learned in a two-day campaign in Colorado, completed yesterday where the brew- eries are seeking to weaken the dry law by having beer declared a non- intoxicant. “I welcome William J. Bryan to our ranks as a new convert,” Dr, Landrith continued, “He has declared that the one great issue is liquor. He and others are going in for prohibition to be in at the death of liquor. Then | they can point to their aid in the great victory. “But_don'’t be fooled ahout Bryan. He is like Roosevelt. He is not dead, he is just resting.

WORKING OUT THE DETAILS Athens, Wednesday, Sept. 27.— (Vio London, Sept, 28.)—The Asso- ciated Press is in a position to state positively that King Constantine de- cided this morning in favor of an immediate declaration of war on Bule garia. Reports that a general mobilization has been ordered are premature. Afe ter the session of the council of min- isters at the palace this morning Premier Kalogeropoulos hastily called a cabinet meeting, The pre- mier declared ‘the government was) giving the fullest consideration to the', situation and said there might be ad- fieued to Bulgaria a note of such character that mobilization | would logically follow, Drawing Up Ultimatum. Later in the day it developatithat the king had decided on a deglaration of war against Bulgaria. ‘The de- cision has not yet been gnnounced publicly, as numerous details remain to be worked out. They include an ultimatum to Bulgaria demanding in- stant evacuation of all Greek Mace- donia, as well as plans for mobiliza- tion under the difficult conditions presented by the occurnion of Greek termor{(.by entente forces. The king this morning discussed the mobilization problem minutely with General Moso:hopoulos, chief of staff, and General Yanakitsas, for- mer minister of war.
