REFUGEES FROM THE
HORRORS OF MEXICO
PASS THROUGH CITY
TeD of Insulting of American
Women and Spitting in Face
of "Cowardly Yankees"
WOMEN WERE TRUE BLUE
Declares United States Must Inter
vene if Its Citizens Are to Live
in Strife-torn Land
ICnroute to his homo In Philadel
phia following a hair-raising- escape
with his family from troubled Mexico,
-Michael J. Siattery, a third-part own
er in a $5,000,000 gold mine near
Guadalajara, passed through Harris
burg.
Mr. Siattery is a son-in-law of
Thomas Mclfarland. 82fi North Sixty
third street, Philadelphia; the latter
came as far as this city to meet the
refugees.
Siattery, his wife, their two small
daughters and some eighteen or twen
ty other Americana went through
some hair-graying experiences in try
ing to escape from the country of the
Huertistas. The Americans Anally
made their escape from Manzanillo on
the Mexican west coast to San Diego
and thence to San Francisco on a
freighter. The freighter was thirty
six days out of Hong Kong with sev
eral hundred Chinese coolies aboard.
Some awful tales of the treatment
by troops of the Huerta government,
of the Mexican's savage hatred of
Americans and things American, were
told by Siattery. The women were in
sulted by army officers the men were
aunted with cowardice; American
lags were torn from the consulate
windows and burned and spat upon.
During that Aag burning incident the
?ighteen Americans were lined up on
he docks and while a battalion of Hu
>rta troops stood up with loaded rifles,
'orced them to watch. When it was
ill over a Mexican officer threw the
\shes of the Aag in Slattery's face.
"We have spat in your far >s and we
lave insulted your women," said the
ltficer. "What in hell have we got to
* ,*Tow to make your cowardly Yan-
Iv-s fight."
' "If the United States docs not in
ervene and show Huerta and Villa
ind Carranza and all the rest of
hem that it isn't safe to attack Amer
fans." said Siattery, "no Amerlcnn
an ever go into Mexico w'th safety
gain." So declared Siattery in telling
if the outrages.
Siattery went into some detail about
he experiences of himself and the
ither Americans and the families of
he refugees in that faraway cpuntry
nder the Southern Cross. Here are
ome of the high lights;
"When our wives refused to leave

ip fortiAcations and General Mier

ullding. We ourselves kept sentinels
osted during that never-to-be-forgot
pn night. A mob that must have
umbered 13,000 howled and shrieked
nd cursed all night about the con
ulate. 'Death to the Gringoes,' 'Kill

A Pate Worse Than Death
"These were the cries, and X tell you.

now, when a woman falls into "the

Arthur H. Hull, clerk of tho course,
at 2 sharp and the stand filled with

Fair skies and a track in Ideal con

for to-day's meet since the breaking

morning that never in the history of

in better trim than they are to-day.

BRYAN APPROVED
CANAL TOLLS PLANK,
SAYS SENATOR WALSH
Was Largely Responsible For Its
Insertion in Democratic
Platform
By Associated Press
Washington. May 16.—The state
ment that William Jennings Bryan de
liberately approved the tolls exemp
tion plank of the Democratic platform
as a member of the subcommittee on
resolutions which prepared the plat
form, was made in the Senate to-day
by Senator Welsh, of Montana, secre
tary of the subcommittee.
Senator Welsh declared that an open
repudiation of a solemn covenant by
a political party would cause all to
recoil from it with horror were it pro
posed by any other man than the
President of the United States.
"For myself its moral aspect as
sumes no different hue because he
j commends it," added the Senator.
I As a substitute for the repeal bill
.Senator Walsh urged the adoption of
former President Taft's proposal to
submit the controversy to tho Su
preme Court.
"When the tolls plank was present
ed," said Senator Walsh, "Mr. Bryan
expressed his approval but said that
it should be accompanied by another
i plank declaring against the admission
of railroad owned ships to the canal.
And so the platform read after the
declaration concerning tolls."

Sharp Criticism of the Course
of Auditor General Runs
Through Letter
Governor John K. Tener to-day sent
a letter to Auditor General A. W.
Powell, in which he not only upheld
Attorney General John C. Bell in his
refusal to assign one of his deputies
to represent the Auditor General in
mandamus proceedings brought as a
result of the controversy over the pay
ment of revenue from automobile li
censes to the State Highway Depart
ment as required by law, but informed
Mr. Powell that he approval of all the
Attorney General had done in bring
ing actions against the Auditor Gen
eral. In addition the Governor says
that from what he has heard the
"dilatory" tactics of Mr. Powell In
the actions have prevented early de
cision of the Important question raised
by the fiscal officer and puts the blame
for condition of the highways on the
shoulders of the Auditor General.
The letter was sent in response to
an appeal made to the Governor by
Mr. Powell when the Attorney General
had refused his request to assign Dep
uty Attorney General J. E. 15. Cun
ningham to defend him in the man
damus proceedings brought by Mr.
Bell to compel payment of the auto
mobile license money to the Highway

PITY'"DEAF" MEN
WHO BLOW SAFE OF
HERMAN CIGAR CO.
Strangers Ask Numerous Questions
in Sign Language About
Establishment
When two strangers who appeared
and behaved like deaf mutes called at
the offices of the John C. Herman
cigar company at New Cumberland
yesterday afternoon and evinced a
keen interest in the interior arrange
ment of the plant the employes felt
only pity for them.
And when the visitors asked in sign
language and with pencil and tablet
numerous questions about the estab
lishment the workmen willingly, sym
pathetically,' explained all they could.
But just before the pair departed one
of them wrote on a bit of paper:
"When is payday?"
A clerk obligingly wrote "To-mor
row—Saturday," in reply.
Amazed workmen who came to
work this morning discovered that the
office door had been "jimmied" and
the safe door blown open. An empty
nitroglycerin can and a decidedly
queer odor in the air told its own
story. *
An inner drawer had been pried
loose and the contents consisting of
S3BO worth of revenue stamps, had
been stolen. The stamps are of the
kind used for the tobacco trade and
are of little value to the thieves. New
Cumberland sleuths are seeking a trail
however.
Shammo Says He Is
Not For McCormick
The following statement was given
out to-day by Calder B. Shammo, can
dlJato for Democratis nomination for
the Legislature in the city district:
"It is not true, as stated in the Pa
triot to-day that I, as a candidate for
the nomination as a member of the
State Legislature, on the Democratic
ticket, am in favor of the nomination
of Mr. Palmer for Senator and Mr.
McCormick for Governor. I am a
Ryan Democrat and am lending my
best efforts to bring about the .success
of the whole Ryan ticket in this city
and the defeat of the McCormick-Pal
nier faction. The statement that I am
for Palmer and McCormick was made,
by me in a joking way and was never
intended to be taken seriouslv, as I am
unqualifiedly In favor of the whole
Ryan ticket."

The nonpartisan committee having
In charge the campaign of President
Judge George Kunkel for the State
Supreme Court bench callod attention
to-day to the necessity of polling a big
vote in Dauphin county and through
out Central Pennsylvania at tho pri
maries next Tuesday. •
Judge Kunkel's campaign in his
home district has swept everything
before it. No other candidate has
been able to gain a foothold in Cen
tral Pennsylvania. So unanimous is
sentiment in his favor at home that
many of his friends do not realize that
a serious contest is being waged for
his nomination and that other candi
dates are striving by every means In
their power to gain support and in
fluence. It must not be forgotten that
each of the other candidates is per
sonally popular in his home district
and that to overcome heavy votes cast
elsewhere it will be necessary for all
Judge ICunkel's friends at home to
come to his support on Tuesday.
The committee is much pleased with
late reports from many places through
out Pennsylvania. Judge Kunkel's
chances of nomination are considered
excellent. Indeed, those who have
been most closely associated with his
campaign were to-day sure that he
will be nominated, but they were urg
ing that every vote possible be re
corded for him, as the nonpartisan

FIRE IN MAIL CAR

discovered In a Reading Railway mail

ballot is as yet experimental and there
is no precedent upon which accurate
estimates of results may be based.
It Is evident, however, that Judge
Kunkel's excellent record on the,bench
is all over Pennsylvania! Re
ports at headquarters indicate that
his conduct of the Capitol conspiracy
cases and his decisions in the "full
crew" law and other important cases
have made a deep impression on the
popular mind. It has not been for
gotten that Judge Kunkel presided at
the Captiol conspiracy cases, as the
result of which all the guilty persons
were convicted and nearly $2,000,000
of stolen money returned to the State.
He has received' strong support
throughout the mining regions and
wherever union labor is strong be
cause of his eminent fairness when tho
"full crew" law- was bitterly assailed
in the Dauphin county courts. He
sustained this law and the Supreme
Court sustained him.
Of all the candidates Judge Kunkel
is admittedly best fitted by training,
experience, and natural ability for the
Supreme Court judgeship. He has had
six years as a lawmaker in the Legis
lature six years as district attorney
and ten years on the bench, having
been unanimously re-elected last Fall
with the support of the very men who
were his bitterest opponents when he
ran first.

refuses to state.
It was on getting out of the train
from Washington that the Doctor gave
her opinion of the railroad accommo
dations.

"this railroad is certainly miles behind
the times when it comes to providing
accommodations for passengers. Must
I climb those steps? No, I musn't.
Get me an elevator."
So a courteous brakeman arranged
to have the Doctor taken to the wait

"I don't see how women get up at
all in those horrid tight skirts," shot
Dr. Walker on leaving the elevator
with her baggage.

MEXICANS REACH WASHINGTON
Principals in Niagara Falls Con

Ambassador's Guests
By Associated Press
Washington. D. C., May 16.—State
Department officials awaited to-day a
reply from the Huerta government to
the urgent Inquiry mado by the Bra
zilian minister In Mexico City at the
request of Secretary Bryan for In
formation concerning the whereabouts
of Private Samuel Parks. Spanish Am
bassador Riano to-day received a dis
patch from the Huerta government
promising immediate investigation.
Air. Bryan said he had received no
proof from the Brazilian envoy that
Parks, who went through the Mexican
line in his uniform, was executed. But
it is known that the minister as well
as General Funston in Vera Cruz have
been told repeatedly that the young
private had met with a summary exe
cution and that tils body had been
mutilated and destroyed.
Neither, however, has been able to
report to Washington the Mexican
commmander's account of just what
happened. War Department officials
i say they assume Parks met his death,
in the manner unofficially reported.
Secretary Bryan declined to inako
public the text of the representations
made by him to General Huerta
through the Brazilian minister other
than to say that they were "urgent."
