William Barnes, Jr., said he had "no

feeling between Barnes and Roosevelt
and coupling this with the fact that
Barnes showed signs of pinning his
presidential hopes to Root early this

"going to stand."

If Colonel Roosevelt joins whole
whole heartedly with fhe Republicans,
it is accepted the man must be of the
stripe he demands.
The colonel will demand a firm for

outcome of the San Geronimo fight,
when nearly a fifth of the Villistas en- -
gaged were cut down, officers at head
quarters declared the Pershing orders
would be carried out if the Villistas

With the 60 known killed, the usual
