When the rebel re-enforcements arrived at La Victoria, President Castro and his forces were located at a point on the German railroad. The rebels made a detour of the city and cut off the only road of retreat open to the government forces. They were then short of ammunition, and without the arrival of a train bringing them half a million cartridges it is believed that Castro's forces would have been annihilated. Prepit rat ions for their retreat had already been ordered. The revolutionists stationed bear Caracas, some 1,200 men under the comniund of General Ramos, are alone responsible for the retreat of Geuerul Mendoza. They permitted the train carrying ammunition to the government to leave Caracas and reach La Victoria. This train had an escort of ouly 108 men. Tile men under Ramos did not attack it, nor did they destroy one of the eighty bridges between Caracas and La Victoria over which the railroad runs.

An added proof that the government suffered terribly in the La Victoria light from the repeated attacks of the rebels Is found In the fact that President Castro does not pursue General Mendoza. The latter's plan in withdrawing from La Victoria is to oblige President Castro to abandon the positions he holds there. 15 South Main St., Pittston. ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST. The couple determined to disregard tile objections of relatives, and an effort was made to overcome the other obstacles to their marriage by securing from the state board a full pardon and restoration to citizenship.

The band headed by Jesse James was charged with almost Innumerable robberies of banks and railroad trains, in the execution of which many desperate encounters took place and many men were killed. The members of the band had served through the civil war, lighting on the side of the Confederacy with Quantrell and Ills guerrillas. The scene of most of their alleged post helium depredations was the state of Missouri and those adjacent thereto, but In September, 1870, the baud entered Minnesota, traversing the state us far as Northfield, in Rice county.

He died at the hospital two hours later without making a statement. The man who is supposed to have done the shooting evidently disappeared as soon as the wounded mnn's brother left for help.
