The entire federal army went Madero is in Jail; | The War is Over “Fugitive Law” Applied to Gustavo | Madero by Diaz, Now Commander inChief of Army—Plan to Banieh Deposed President and Seize His | Property. Francisco I. Madero, his family and | bis cabinet ministers are now pris. | oners in the national capital in Mexi- | co City. General Victoriano Huerta is | provisional president of the republic. | General Felix Diaz, a conqueror after | ten days of civil war, is commander- | in-chief of all the forces. i The Madero government fell and | the revolution ended when the fed- | eral army declared for Diaz. Diaz, de- | giring a military man and a strong | personality at the head of the gov- | ernment, consented to the senate’s re- i guest that General Huerta act as pres- {dent ad interim. General Blanquet immediately ar | rested Madero in his private office in | the national palace and imprisoned | him under heavy guard, with his un- | cle, Ernesto Madero, other members of his family and his advisers. Gen- eral Huerta arrested the former presi- | dent's brother, Gustavo Madero, the | finance minister, in a restaurant near | the national palace and imprisoned | him. | The army received the news of the | coup d’etat with tremendous cheering. | The people rushed to the streets and | filled the air with their shouts of | “Viva Diaz!” “Viva Huerta!” | General Diaz, after conferences with | General Blanquet and Provisional | President Huerta, moved troops from the arsenal to the national capital, | uniting with the federal force concen- trated there. i Gustavo Madero, brother of the de- posed president, was removed from the penitentiary and shot. It is pre- sumed that this was done by order of | Felix Diaz. Francisco Madero, the deposed | president, was later taken under a heavy guard from the national palace and lodged in the arsenal. There he was 2 prisoner of General Diaz in the | very place which for more than a week he had caused to be battered with cannon in his efforts to subju- gate the rebel army. Soon after their arrival at the ar senal Gustavo Madero was subjected to the notorious “fugitive law,” by which he was free to run under the rifle fire of his guards. He fell dead under their bullets. There is some trepidation also as to the fate which awaits the ex-presi- dent and his cabinet, because of the finding of a list of “those who ought to die” among the official documents | of Francisco Madero's government. It {s feared that this may lead to ugly reprisals. In the list of proscribed were the names of twenty-two prominent men, including Francisco de la Barra, Jesus Flores Magon, Manuel Calero, Alberto Garcia Granados and Dr. Vasquez Gomez. For some days Francisco de la Barra believed he was in danger of assassi- | nation and he, therefore, hid in the British legation, where he heard that numerous threats had been made to capture him. The fall of the government Was brought about by the success of the senate in prevailing upon General! Huerta, who had been the mainstay of the government. The senate in ex- | traordinary session voted to oust Ma- dero. A committee was appointed to confer with General Huerta. The committee was entirely successful. The federal commander-in-chief left the deputation after giving his prom- ise to act as provisional president. The senate at once proclaimed Gen- eral Huerta as head of the govern- ment. Messengers were sent to General Diaz, who approved of the action tak- en. The rebel commander consented to Huerta’s appointment largely be- cause he desired a military man plac- ed in office and because of his confl- dence in Huerta's ability to quell dis- order. Diaz ordered his troops to cease firing. The president was arrested while he was discussing with his cabinet a plan to declare the vice presidency vacant, hoping thereby to appease $eneral Diaz. General Blanquet, ac- eompanied by his officers, suddenly en- tered the president's private office and notified Madero and his advisers that they were prisoners. Shortly afterward General Huerta arrested Gustavo Madero, the finance minister, in a restaurant near the na- tional palace, and sent him to prison. The army hailed the coup with wild cheering. General Blanquet visited General Diaz. Soon after General Diaz moved troops from the arsenal to the national palace. He was made commander-in-chief of the army and the rebellion was officially declared at an end. : The rebel troops and their former antagonists of the federal army min- gled freely and exchanged congratula over to Diaz, and the officers had lit- tle difficulty in bringing out a change 8313 Hil: i 8 § £ i All the horrors of a bombarduent Bomb Wrecks have been experienced by the resi dents of Mexico City for many days! and to those that might be expected have been added the effects of vicious machine gun and rifle fire in the city’s streets at a range sometimes of less than 100 yards. | Scarcely a district of the capital has escaped injury.

When Arthur Young, twelve years of age, found a roll containing $1000 on the bridge between Northumber land and Sunbury, Pa., he returned the money to George Haines, the owner.

The funds for the White House are increased by $20,000. Liniment Rag Kills Baby. Using a bit of cloth saturated with Frapk Hoffman, a i i { Lloyd-George is on a motor trip in Nobody was injured, as the residence was not occupied. The fact that neighbors saw several women near “Walton-on-Hill” in an automobile led to the theory that the outrage had been committed by suf- fragettes. This suspicion was strength- ened by the finding of two hatpins in the wreckage. The finishing touches to the interior were to be put on and the household effects of the Lloyd-George family weer to be moved to the house the last part of this week. Mr. Lloyd-George was to occupy the new home upon his return from the south of France, where he went recently for rest and recuperation. A dynamite bomb had been placed in the domestics’ quarters. This part of the house was shattered and the walls were cracked by the explosion. The floor of Lloyd-George's intended sleeping quarters was wrecked and one of the walls of the room crashed in. An attempt also had been made to get the building on fire, as large quan- tities of paper, saturated with ofl, were found. Some of them were burn- ing when discovered by persons at- tracted by the explosion. Two seven-pound cans of black powder also had been placed in two rooms among heaps of wood shavinge which had been saturated with oil, and in the center of which burning candles had been fixed. McCarthy, a Scotland Yard inspec tor, has taken charge of the investi- gation. No arrests have been made. There is evidence that the dynamiters fled to the coast with the evident in- tention of going to France. The dynamiters had entered the house by prying open a back window. They placed a large bowl in one of the bedrooms. This was probably filled with dry shavings in which a candle had been placed. The bomb was plac ed on top of the shavings beside the candle. This gave the dynamiters about fifteen or twenty minutes in which to escape. Two Little Boys Drowned. Two little boys were drowned near Elmer, N. J., when they broke through the thin ice or Wilmer lake, and in a vain effort tc escue them Ralph Duffield, miller xt the lake, almost sacrificed his life. He was pulled out unconscious and a physician worker with him for a half hour before he was restored. The victims are: Henry Pessler, seven years old, and John Jordon, ten years old. Duffield plunged into the waters and managed to get the lads, who could not be resuscitated. When Duf- field essaped to reach the bank he be came exhausted and had to be helped out. After a half hour of hard work the man had to be resuscitated. Death In Appendix Family. John “Mandler, a four-year-old boy of Fountain Springs, died # the Min ers’ hospital in Pottsville, Pa, from blood poisoning, following an operas tion for appendicitis. : The entire Mandler family, includ. ing the parents and three children, were stricken with appendicitis with. in two weeks. Surgeons predicted that all would recover, but the ordeal of the knife too much for John, the young: est of the children. Shot Himself Through Mouth. Albert M. Bechtel, forty-seven years of age, a farmer of near York, Pa, after squandering, it is said, several thousand dollars recently inherited trom a relative, killed himself by send- ing two bullets from a rifle into his head. The first bullet was not fatal be cause it struck a set of false teeth, the broken pieces being found beside Bis body. He had wrapped blankets about the rifle and his head to pre- Gambler Kills His Own Daughter. James Purcell, the veteran gambler, who testified before the aldermanic | committee in New York that he had paid gratt to the police for a period of seventeen years, quarreled with his wife ia their apartment. When he began shooting, Mrs. Pur cell fainted, but wild bullets struck their thirteen-year-old daughter Ag- nes, who was cowering in bed, and killed her. Thinking he had murder- ed both women, Purcell surrendered himself to the police. He was locked up. Then Purcell replied to a query as to where he lived and, handing over his revolver, gave himself up. When the police investigated they found the little girl, lying dead in bed, and on the floor Mrs. Purcell. She had faint ed, and it was this that caused Pur cell to believe he had wounded her. Since his testimony against the “system,” Purcell told the police when he became more collected, he had been shunned by his friends as a “squesaler” and “hounded by the cops.” Even his wife was ashamed of him. He became morose, sullen, and in the night they quarreled. They were still at it at dawn and then came the shooting. Family of Seven Had Appendicitis. John Mandler, of Fountain Springs, near Pottsville, Pa. last week, at the time when every member of his family, five children, had been oper- ated on and his wife treated for ap- pendicitis, since the first of the year, boasted of his good health and ex. pressed surprise that the others had been afflicted. This week, however, Mandler, toe, was stricken with appendicitis. He was removed to the state hospital and his appendix was removed. This is the sixth operation for ap- pendicitis in the family. All of the previous patients have recovered.
