Pascual Orozco, Brilliant Insurrecto Leader.

@ 1911. by American Press Association. General Pascual Orozco, who commanded the insurrecto forces at the capture of Juarez, is one of the youngest and boldest of Madero's lieutenants. Because of his brilliant work in the field be has been acclaimed the hero of the Mexican revolution. Before his success at Juarez he had already proved his worth as a soldier. Since the war began last November he has been the leader of the revolution’s most spectacular achievements—the victories at Guerrero. Cerro Prieto and Malpaso. The son of a small ranchman outside of Chihuahua, General Orozco had never served in nor held public office. At the time of the uprising he was a commission merchant in Chihuahua, where he bad established himself seven years before at the age of twenty-one. Last summer when Madero was touring Mexico making speeches Orozco became converted to the cause. Soon he was in the saddle as the personal escort of Gonzales, provisional governor of Chihuahua. At the siege of Guerrero. Gonzales lost his nerve and refused to blow up a block of bouses in which the federate were Intrenched. Orozco jumped into the breach, blew up the block and captured the town. Since then be has been the official leader of the revolutionary forces of Chihuahua. Head of the Ironworkers. Frank M. Ryan of Chicago, president of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Ironworkers, is in the public eye just now because of recent events in connection with the Los Angeles Times explosion.

Mr. Ryan has been president of the Ironworkers' union since 1905, when he succeeded Frank Buchanan. Buchanan is the man who eliminated the late

FRANK M. RYAN.

Sam Parks from activity in the affairs of the union and raised the standard of the organization to a higher plane than it had before attained. After four years of office Buchanan declined reelection. and since then President Ryan has conducted its affairs along the lines established by his predecessor. In a recent statement Ryan said that a four years' conflict with the National Erectors* association bad depleted the resources of the union and called on organized labor for funds. The ironworkers’ union is affiliated with the American Federation of Labor and the building trades department of that organization.
