AMERICANS HEAVY LOSERS Zapata Outbreak Grows Capital I Nervous Over Spread of Insurrec tion, but Madero Professes Confidence. Mexico City. The Madero Govern ment faces a crisis. The President and members of his Cabinet now admit the rebellion headed by Emlllano Zapata has grown to such proportions as to make It the most formidable menace yet faced by the present Government. The conduct of the campaign against the Zapatistas, now operating over a wide area, and the uprising at Juares. were discussed In a special Cabinet meeting. The President was not will ing to admit that the mutiny of troops at Juarez was directly connected with the Zapatista rebellion, and it was agreed that Pascual Orozco and 400 men whom he has been ordered to take from Chihuahua to Juarez would be sufficient to restore order at that point, Nevertheless the Juarez upris ing Is more seriously considered than the officials here will admit. El Paso. With the stores wrecked as completely as If a cyclone had struck them, the merchandise bedeck ing the mutineers or piled in their homo throughout the city and all rail roads cut to the south to prevent troops coming from the national or State capital, the 500 mutinous Mexi can soldiers who took charge of Clu dad Juarez spent the night rioting and looting. During the day they eleced their own officers and then repaired to their barracks, drunk on liquor pillag ed from the saloons and with their pockets stuffed with coin and yalua bles taken from the stores. Impassioned appeals from Judge J. t. Haff of Kansas City prevented the El Paso Chamber of Commerce from appealing to President Taft to send American troops Into Juarez 1 hold the Mexican border town until the Mexican Government could show its ability to preserve order and protect American citizens and property. The looters appear to have wrecked especial vengeance upon the American curio dealei. The biggest general store in the place, that of Ketelsen & Degetau, German subjects, carrying a Rto valued at S'250.000.. was burned. W is a regular and and patterns are Men's and Young Men's Suits.

Amerlcis who visited Juarez say they counted eight dead and saw nine wounded men as a result of orgies, but the mutineers say that only thres were killed. Three wounded men were brought to El raso. They are Fred Leyva, Gus Ruhnke and Mariano Rod riguez. The last named was police ad jutant of Juarez. In attempting to put down the mutiny he killed Cipriano Torres, an insurreoto, and was himself badly wounded In the head. He reach ed El Paso by a circuitous route through the mountains.

FOREIGN QUARTER IN TERROR "Scab" Chalked On Door Victims Had Celebrated Uproarlouily the Return to Work Night Be fore Their Death. ' Lawrence, Mass. Terror prevail! throughout the French-Canadian col ony In Valley Street as the result of the murder of four strikebreaking op eratives, who had returned to work In spite of threats made by members of the Italian colony in adjacent streets. In all the foreign quarter thwre Is in tense excitement over the crime, and only the presence and activity of the militia have prevented serious disord er and possibly Interracial conflicts. The four victims are: Mr. and Mrs. JOSEPH SARVARIA. Miss ANNA TANGUAY. FELIX GONN. A fellow-countrywoman visited a three-story ramshackle tenement be tween Hampshire and Franklin sts., in which a dozen families of French Canadian operatives are housed. While passing the landing on the sec ond floor, she discovered blood coming from beneath the door of a throe-room tenement occupied by the Sarvarlas who two days before returned to work In the mills. Shrieking in fright, she rushed from the house and told a group of tenants, gathered on the side walk. One of the men went up to the second floor and forced open the door. In the kitchen he discovered the bodies of two men and a woman with their faces slashed almost beyond re cognition. In an adjoining bedroom was found tl body of the second wo man, who 1 id also been mutilated In most fiendish fashion. In "an incredibly short time the crime became known to other Inmates of the house, who flocked Into the streets,' hysterical with terror. One Canadian forced his way to Tao front of the excited mob and In sten torian tones urged his fellow-countrymen to take reprisal upon the Italians In the adjoining section of the mill .district. Before the mob could act on this advice two companies of Infantry swept into the i reet at either end, and with leveled bayonets began to drive tho crowd to the eldcwalks and tfcofl Into tfe n.khhQrinj tenements.

In less than ten minutes after the murders were discovered, the streets had been cleared as If by magic, and members of the State and local Police Depart ments had entered the house and be gun an Investigation to discover the Identity C the victims. The murders are a direct result of the inter-racial jealousies In the ranks of the strikers. Since the arrest of Joseph J. Ettor, their leader, the strik ers have been divided Into opposing camps, according to the nationalities represented. The Syrian, Armenian, Polish, Rus sian, Italian and Lithuanian strikers have remained steadfast, and for the most part refused to return to work. The Franco-Belgian, French-Canadian, and English-speaking people, who are the better paid classes among the op eratives, deserted in large numbers, and this fact aroused considerable rac ial hatred.

Not a single Suit SHORTAGE Will REACiiSe,800 New Bethlehem, Pa., Has Its First Sensation GIRL CLERK CUT HIGH JINKS Little Slip In Monthly Report Upset Plans Clerk Helps Post Office Inspectors in Straight ening Mattcri. New Bethlehem, Pa. Ella Latimer, a former employe of t lie postofficj here, is alleged to have admitted that she is responsible for a shortage of $G,S00 In the accounts of Postmaster George L. Thomas. While the resi dents are eageily awaiting develop ments, the young girl appears to have nothing on her mind but the fact that her father refused to alow her to attend the automobile show la Pittsburgh last week. The girl spent three days In assisting Ihe postoffice Inspector In his Investigation. Other wine, It would prob.nbly have taken months to discover the amount of the shortage and the system used. The girl's salary was $:!2 a month. New Bethlehem is all agog over the one and only sensation in Its history. "That pos'toffice shortage of $(i,Slii) is more than this town has lost by fire In 40 years,"' said one old resident. "What did she do with all tho money?" is the question belong gen erally askeed. Miss Latimer's friends explain how she disposed of tho cash she Is alleged to have stolen. " 'El'," said one of her girl friends "was a mighty good feilow. Sho was very Independent and kept licr pri vate affairs to herself, but slin was good to her friends and to her family. Sh liked to dress well and she kept her three sisters and a brother well dressed. They lived on the best to be had and 'HI' fooled nearly aU of. the bills." Miss Latimer baa not been Heen on the streets of the town fur several days. A close trieiid of the girl de clares that Bhe Is keeping secluded In her home because she had been in formed that foreigners in Hie town, fearing that money orders they had sent to tlu old country would never reach their destination, because Miss Latimer Is alleged to have taken them, have been makig threats against her life.- Substantial citizens of the town de clare Miss Latimer's extravagance was often the salient feature feature of town gossip. Expensive millinery, a new set of costly furs and other refinery, they .declare, must bave ceat her a gco 1 iUiu. and it is reported the fho Ip pil or Overcoat is ing the expenses or a girl friend who is a patient In a Pittsburgh hospital, and whose parents have no knowledge of her whereabouts. Postmaster Thomas declares the first 1' tlmation that there was some thing amiss with the accounts was given to him in November, when the postoffice department in Washington returned h;m a report sent in by Miss Latimer, in which there was a $."U0 discrepancy. "When I received the report back from the department," said Mr. Thom as, "I made out one mysolf and sent It in. This one was also returned. Then I failed Miss Latimer's attention to It. She made up another report. The next thing I knew along came an Inspector with all threp reports and an Investigation was begun. "When she came down on request, she assisted Inspector Thomas in go ing over the hooks. With one exeep tion she recognized at first glance every nionew order which she said she had reduced when entering It upon the stubs. She also got out a set ol books In which she had kept account of tho money order business as It should have been kept. Her extra set of books showed practically all she had taken. "Alter tho Inspector had concluded his examination of the books he ques tioned her. 'How mg have you been carrying til's ( .. .' he asked her, and she said, 'Fez more than three years.' She w; i asked If Bhe had taken any money when her father was postman or. she aid she had. She was a very shrewd girl and If Bhe hadn't made that s'ip up In her report last November, 1 doubt if they would ever have caught her." Postmaster Thomas also declared that wIkmi he broke Into Miss Lati mer's prlvte locker, he found a quantity of mail addressed to him. sent by the posofl'iee department. Miss I.aiimer, who is 21! years old, bad been an employe of the postoffice for more than six ' ears. It is stat that her father was untler the impre sion that, the salary paid her daughte was $1,000 a year. Much Depends on Grammar Lesson. Hellefontaine, O.
