President's Policy
Is Called "Barbarous"
Philadelphia. Dec. 6.—"Every gun
allowed to enter Mexico by the lifting
of the arms embargo eventually will
be turned against the United States,"
said Major Cassius C. Gillette, ex-engl
neer of the United States army, in an
address yesterday before the City
Business Club at the Colonnude Hotel.
The major recently returned from
Mexico. He said the lifting of the
embargo was the most "cruel, bloody
and barbarous act that pne nation
ever perpetrated upon another." He
could not understand the policy of the
President and predicted that if con
tinued it would lead to Intervention.
The cots to prosecute a war would be
about $800,000,000 in pensions, $350,-
000,000 for supplies, munitions and
pay and the penalty in deaths would
be 200.000.
Major Gillette asserted that the man
the President was trying to seat as
president of Mexico. General Villa,
was a cutthroat. bandt,(thief and rob
ber. and that Geronlmo, the Apache,
was a gentleman by comparison. He
upheld Huerta and said he was the
only man In Mexico who could handle
the situation. Major Gillette says that
Carranza died last August and that
h#s name Is used to help the rebel
cause, because the 12,000,000 peons
believe In him.
This was the regular weekly meet
ing of the City Club and 11. A. Jame
son presided.

McDevitt Returns Home;
Dead Broke, But Happy
Wllkes-Barre, Pa., Feb. 6.—Happy,
but broke, John Jay McDevitt returned
to this city yesterday morning. There
was no United States marine band to
meet him; not even a hustling boot
black welcomed him home. In fact,
McDevitt stepped from an ordinary
day coach to the station platform,
walked past the handsome hotel which
he left with such pomp two days ago
and into an ordinary lunchroom,
where he breakfasted on a plate of
beans, the dish which has made many
a meal for him in the past. And for
the meal "Butch" parted with his last
nickel, which he had saved for his
"breakfast." he said.
Before McDevitt arrived in the city
the train reaching here prior to the
newspaper, train, on which "Butch"
rode, carried in the baggage car a
plain pine box. Inside was the John
Jay McDevitt in near bronze which
Congress did not accept. It was
hauled away from the station in an
ordinary wag-on and removed to the
home of a brother of McDevitt.

Many Petitions in Circulation
Asking That Licenses
Be Refused
With the last day for the filing of
remonstrances against the granting of
liquor licenses just one week away,
the leaders in the movement to pre
vent any more hotels being licensed In
Steelton aro marshaling their forces
and preparing to make the strongest
remonstrance ever made against any
licenses In Steelton.
Mrs. M. M. Stees, president of the
Dauphin County Women's Christian
Temperance Union and a member of
the executive committee of the No
llcense League, said this morning that
the temperance forces here would ef
fectively block all efforts of the liquor
men to secure either one of the new
licenses asked for in the First ward.
There arc now four separate peti
tions being circulated, according to
Mrs. Stees, against the applications of
John Shupp for a license to conduct
a hotel at Front and Mohn streets and
David P. Baker, who wants to open
a hotel and bar In the South Third
street foreign section.
"On Just what grounds will you op
pose the granting of these licenses?"
was asked Mrs. Stees.
"On the grounds that there're not
needed," she replied, "Why at the
present time there are eight hotels In
Steelton and I don't blieve you could
get a meal or lodgings at half of
them."
"But," It was suggested, "don't you
know that Mr. Baker plans to open a
hotel for the exclusive accommoda
tion of the transient foreigners a
place where lodgings may be secured
for twenty-five cents a night; don't
you think such a place Is needed?"
"Decidedly not. Why at the pres
ent time there are empty houses In
that district where these foreigner*
could get lodging for a most nominal
sum. The foreigners don't want a ho
tel. They want a boarding house."
