AFFAIRS
WORRY GOVERNMENT
WASHINGTON. June 9. With the future course of the American government in Mexican affairs dependent on the outcome of the military operation of General Obregon, the Carranzista
leader, and Gen. Villa around Leon, administration officials continued in
doubt today. . Report from Leon are conflicting, but a dispatch from Consul General Silliman at Vera Cruz announcing that Obregon's claim of success appeared to be confirmed led to the belief that Carranza is gaining. It is said that , if the Carranza troops pr6ve decisively victorious, the American government may lend the Constitutionalist faction its active support in accordance with the new policy laid down in President Wilson's recent statement. x Two more of the five British subjects shot by Villista soldiers when Tuxpam was captured are dead, Vice Consul Bevan at Tampico reported to the state department today.
WANTS FIXED HOURS FOR POLICE MARKET
Another market war is likely to start in the East End. As a result of last year's keen competition, market hucksters this year arrive with stands as early as 4:30 o'clock. At 6:30 o'clock the marketers start to arrive but before this time, most of the hucksters have tired of waiting and have taken their good home. Market Master McKinley said today he is going to try to reach an agreement between hucksters and buyers and regulate market hours by the opinion of the majority. He will ask the hucksters to arrive not early than 5:30 o'clock and remain until 8 o'clock. Last year the competition was as
keen among the buyers as among the hucksters and as a result, the goods
were sold by S:30 o'clock every morning. The market did double tho business of the Sixth street market down town.
CUPID HALTS CASE WHILE JUROR GOES TO SON'S MARRIAGE
Without introducing witnesses, the Standard Oil company attorneys closed their defense last night in the suit of the estate of Charles Lipscomb for $10,000 damages and arguments were started today, Cupid delayed the court
five hours when Senator Mcconana, a
juryman, was granted a leave of ab
sence until 2 o'clock to attend the wedding of his son. The case depends on the opinion of the jury as to whether Lipscomb, an employe of Jacob W. Kern as a boiler repairer, became an employe of the Standard Oil company on December 23, 1913, by using Standard Oil company equipment and accepting the orders of Field Agent Ghent in making repairs on a gasoline tank. The attorneys took up the arguments at 2 o'clock. Each side was allowed two hours. All evidence on which the arguments will be based was taken from witnesses for the Lip-
suit of the wreck of a fast St. Louis and San Francisco passenger train, nineteen miles west of hree late last night. The train had just crossed a high bridge when it jumped the track and rolled down a 25 foot embankment.
