Miitn I do not recognize that ho has any
K sUndlng In tho Republican party. He has

retlsed tho rules of tho Democratlo party
Jifphlladelphla. His present activities, por-
tonally and through his law Arm, with the

'"I do not recnll"hn Instanco whero he has
Contributed to Republican success, except
ma paid attorney. I am willing to discuss
party questions with party leaders, but not
with those whoso activities are aroused
only when revenue Is In sight. Represen
tative Republicans cannot be .expected to
trine with political soldiers of fortune.
The real candidate before the people Is
Governor Brumbaugh, who should speak
for himself, and he should Nb'cgln with a
fall and specific public explanation of, the
facts connected with tho allegations brought
lialast him of having violated tho corrupt
practices act or Pennsylvania.
ATTORNEY GENERATES STATEMENT.

flfhcn the Penrose leadership received Us
" rebuko at tho hands of tho voters and notice
fwas served that only by adhering to tho
'Sew Ideals In government could tho party
hope to bo successful.
"Penrose has repeatedly referred .to his
election In IS 14 by popular vote as an evi
dence of an Indorsement of hl3 leadership.
, Nothing could be further from the truth.
It was the nomination of Mnrtin G. Brum

'fully realized, that his election would mean
new life for that party through the redemp

Investigation of the six bands In line dis
covered no evidence of "scab" music, and
all the bandmasters proudly produced their

K- their wives, who were celebrating the 4th

The route covered Moyamenslng avenue

TROOPS CHASE RAIDERS
WASHINGTON, May 15, - Consul'
DawBon, nt Tamplco, Mexico, In dis
patches to the State Department to
day reported that Increasing Uneasi
ness is felt by civilians there because
of the expanding activity of General
Nafarcttc, former Carranzlsta, who
has withdrawn from the Government.
He is now operating independently and
is reported to have been exacting heavy
taxes from large oil well operators In
that vicinity.
Intervention in Mexico Is remote, If
it ever becomes necessary. This was
the official "tin" iriven out in nffiVinl
Washington upon the return today of
General Scott from his conferences at
El Paso with General Obrcgon, Mexican
War Minister.
Secretary of War Baker was out
wardly pleased at reports of the nego
tiations on tho American expedition to
exterminate Mexican bandits.
Obrcgon, nt Torrcon, declared he be
lieved that terms for co-operation would
be effected between the two Govern
ments. Major Langhorne, with a force of
cavalry, is 100 miles across the Rio
'Grande, pursuing the bandits who raid
ed Texas towns.
Genernl Funstoh has begun redistri
bution of the border patrol and tho
State militia is being whipped into
shape for ijuick service.
SCOTT'S REPORT BRIGHTENS
SITUATION WITH MEXICO
WASHINGTON? May 15. "There will bo
no comylcto Intervention In Mexico for sev
eral wcckH, If at nil.
This was tho Tip' 'passed out from
ofllclal circles today. Various' reasons wero
cited. But, analyzed, they all agreed that
tho present tlmo would bo Inopportune for
drastic action on tho Mexican policy, In
asmuch as a serious effort Is being made
to prevent It becoming a campaign Issue
by tho Democracy, and tho Republicans
refuse to forco It until tho conference army
bill is' made a law.
General Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff ot
tho army, rtumed fro mtho border todaly
prpaared to mako a complete report to
President Wilson and Secretary of War
Baker. Ho was plainly hopeful that an
amicable agreement would be reached be
tween tho Government and the de facto
Government of Mexico. But ho positively
refused to discuss anything that had taken
place, inlstslng that he must report to the
President and Secretary first.
SCOTT OPTIMISTIC.
Tho Secretary held a brief conference
with tho General after ho arrived at tho
department Afterward he was brimful of
confldenco that tho real crisis had been
averted by the diplomacy of his chief lieu
tenant nnd said:
It may bo several days before we can
reach a complete agreement on the
Mexican situation. But General Scott
Is very hopeful". Ho has explained to
me that he presented the petition of tho
United States to General Obregon, and,
naturally, wo bellevo that when tho
Mexican War Minister reaches Mexico
City his views will bo reflected in the
attitude of tho do facto Government
The situation Is at least far from being
very dangerous.
PRESIDENT UNDISTURBED.
That the Administartion was convinced
that there was no immediate "dynamite"
In the Mexican situation was shown by the
abandonment of the plan to have the chief
of tho army ceneral staff report at once
to the President Instead, It was said that
unless the President Bends for Genernl
Scott ho will hardly report to him until
after tomorrow's Cabinet meeting. General
Scot was exhausted on his arrival here
this morning and after his conversation
with his chief, went to his home In Fort
Meyer to rest
So far as reports that Brazil and Chile
had refused to accede to tho suggestion of
other Latin-American countries and the
tho United States that' they unite with the
United States In recognizing General Car
ranza were concerned, Secretary of State
Lansing today said:
"That is untrue. Not a single member
of the conference voted against the recogni
tion of Senor Carranza."
Details of General Pershing's redlsposl
tlon of his lines Bouth of Columbus showed
that, now they are shortened, the American
expedition is In position to mako a rapid
clean-up of potential border raiders.
It was assumed Mexican Ambassador
Arredondo would elect to see Secretary of
State Lansing soon on pending diplomatic
questions, although neither side has shown
haste recently to discuss the Carranza sug
gesttons for American troop withdrawal,
Much of the need for this was eliminated
In the Scott-Obregon conference.

Excitement Reigns Intense, as, Screened by Tall Iron Fence, Men Strive to Drive Him
Hence, While Students, in Suspense, Pronounce the Sight "Immense," and Dis
regarding Fear, the Three-Hour Combat Cheer
An nudlence of South Phlladelphians, In
which school children noisily predominated,
attended an Impromptu Wild' West perform
ance given In tho vicinity of Urond street
and Snyder nvenue this morning. The
chief actors, humanly speaking, wero a de
tail of policemen from the 16th street nnd
Snyder avenuo station house, several pant
ing and perspiring and occasionally pro
fane employes of the Oray's Kerry abattoir
and some "klbbltzers." to quote Louis Dlr
sky, tho real estater, whose participation
was entirely' advisory, devoted to tho best
and safest mothods of bull-throwing.
But tho leading rolo In tho performance,
nnd, by all odds, tho most animated, was
that played by a 1200-pound Western
steer, name unknown, newly nrrlved at the
I). B. Martin & Co. stockyards,, at 36th
street and dray's Ferry avenue, and al
most Instantly departed therefrom. The
entiro plot ot tho Western thriller -had ItH
origin In the departuro of Ills Steershlp
and his subsequent leading placo In a
street procession through some of the main
highways of South Philadelphia before en
tering tho centre of tho "stage." the grounds
of the Baptist Institute, 'on Passyunk ave
nuo above' Broad street.
POPULACE CHEEItS ANIMAL.
From vantago points afforded by second
and .third-story windows the girl students
of itho Institute, like Spanish senorltas
about the bullring of old Seville, looked
down upon tho performance, cheering tho
prowess' of tho bov'lne champion .and his
would-be captors with true feminine Im
partiality advanoyajlllaedrsimj one
to the other of the antagonists.
Without the high Iron fence along tho
Passyunk avehuo aldo of tho Institute; other
enthusiastic spectators. , niaJnly of school
age. forgot the call of books nnd studies
In the thrill of youthful admiration' of brute
strength nnd cowboy skill In active com
bat. Venturing within tho grounds from time
to tlmo as the-attention .of the corralled
animal became temporarily diverted, sun
dry policemen1 and abattoir attendants,
ropo-nrmed, essayed to lasso the stray ani
mal, only to drop their lariats and flee pre
cipitately -as their proximity attracted the
steer's notice and led him to attempt closer
inspection with lowered head and hostile
bello'wlngs. .
BREAKS SPRINT RECORD.
Policeman 'Weber, a sprinter of note In
the ranks of bluecoat athlotes, equaled his
'best record, as six red lanterns ho was car
rying from a pitfall along his beat were
espied by the steer as Weber passed along
tho Institute fenco en route to tho stntlon
house. Handicapped though ho was. "Weber
clipped a couple of seconds off his 100
yard record ns ho dusted paBt tho territory
oqcuplcd by tho Western lnvador.
Villa, In his boldest moment of border
daring, never manifested a more defiant
attitude than the" stockyards champion from
bohlnd the, stockaded Rhelter of tho Insti
tute. Hope traps, set at various points
near tho entrances, failed to alluro him.
Flower beds, especially those containing
red geraniums, wero demolished. Three
hours of charge and countcrchargo passed,
with tho steer In undisputed possession ot
the field ot battle.
MATADORS CONQUER STEER.
Then the tide of victory turned, the final
struggle no less dramatic than tho pre
liminary skirmishes. Led by "Al" Rhlnlng.
their foreman, a reinforcement of abattoir
attnch'es arrived with a wagonlond of ropes.
It was driven Into tho lnstltuto grounds and
Into the corner where the panting animal
Was gathering force for n fresh attack.
Undaunted by tho augmented enemy,, tho
steer advanced upon tho wagon, hurling one
of tho horses to tho grass with a furious
blow of his head. Staggered by the shock,
the steer recoiled and In so doing, came
within range of Rhlnlng's lasso. One hun-.i-,i
r.o. nt rnnn tlehtened about his head.
Ho tugged at .the noose with such vigor
'Ui.-, ... ii.,a oiinnttfi rmm Tlhlnlnir's crasu
go rapidly that it burned great blisters on
tho foreman's hands. Gaining tho fence,
tho steer cleared tho high pickets with a
single bound and, trailing tho 100 feet of
rope, ran Uoivn Passyunk avenue, while
some 500 persons lost enjoyment In tho per
formance ns' they scurried to shelter.
Some of the more venturesome of the
bystanders caught the dragging line and at
tempted to wrap It around a telegraph pole.
Sergeant Tlmby and Policeman McCuIlln
wero among .these. They were In danger or
being crushed.Avhen Sergeant Nones brnvo
ly hiaded off tho infuriated animal and
dexterously threw him by lassoing his
throat.
Onco on the ground, the steer was help-

dozen moro ropes were passed over his

ho was gathered up by tho stockyard forco
and carted Ignominlnusly to tho abattoir to
meet tho plebeian fnto predestined for him.
In his earlier menndcrtngs tho wander
ing steer had visited South Broad street
almost to Lengue Island, tho Southern High
School and other Institutions nlong tho way,
at all of which devastated flower beds and
ruined red ornaments gavo evidence of his
presence. ' A record for tardy pupils In
tho schools of South Philadelphia stands
as a further reminder of his visit to tho
section.
SARATOGA SPRINGS. N. V., May IB.
Confusion, bordering on an Uproar, marked
the recommitment of tho report of the
Committee on Episcopacy at the Methodist
general conference today, recommending
seven now bishops. Kfforts were made to re
commit, with Instructions to reduce the
number to five bishops, and to Include Sin
gapore, India, as one of the Episcopal resi
dences. The motion to reduce was argued on the
basis that tho cost ot supervision In tho
chucch was already too heavy for the mem
bers to bear.
In tho parliamentary mix-up that fol
lowed nnd after numerous amendments nnd
substitutes were offered, tho Rev. Dr, George
H. Ulckley, of Philadelphia, moved that tho
report be sent back to the committee. Tho
motion was carried, but loud cries for a
division wero raised from nil parts ot tho
floor. Bishop Frank W. Bristol, who pre
sided, ruled that tho question was settled
nnd that no formal motion to reopen tho
matter was made.
This notion of tho conference is expected
to dclny tho voting on bishops for two
days.
Twenty cities In tho United States wero
recommended for Episcopal residences dur
ing the noxt qundrennlum by tho Committee
on Episcopacy, Including Washington. Phil
adelphia and New York.'
Zurich, Buenos Aires, I'ckln, Shanghai
and Seoul are tho foreign cities selected by
the committee for bishops.
