Kreider de scribed the Democratic policy in Mexico in a ringing address before the Harrisburg Republican club last evening. "The Mexican situation is of our own government's making," he said. "Except for the attitude of Wood row Wilson there would be no Mexi can question at all and, as a conse quence, there would be no $125,000,- 000 appropriation to provide for, nor one of J50.000,000 already provided for; nor expenditures of many mil lions to be provided for in the future. But for that watchful-wobbing policy, there would have been no demands to salute our flag necessary, there would have been no need of sending our fleet to Vera Cruz, there would have been no funerals of our brave sailor boys in New York or elsewhere. "My friends, when the final chapter of the Mexican situation has been written by the impartial historian the action and conduct of this Govern ment will cause every American with (Continued on Pnjtc 11) Woman Alone in Cottage, Beaten and Strangled; Fire Started to Cover Crime Mountainview, N. H., Sept. 29. Mrs. Frederick L. Small, wife of a Boston real estate broker, who was burned in a fire which destroyed the Small summer home at Lake Ossipee last night, was murdered, It was dis covered to-day when her body was taken from the ruins. She had been beaten over the head and strangled by a rope tied around her neck. The police believe the fire was started to cover the crime. By a mere chance, however, this failed. The body dropped into the basement and the head and neck lodged in a pool of water. The rope which had been drawn twice around the neck was preserved. Small had left his cottage for Bos ton six hours before the fire was dis covered. He said his wife was alone in the cottage when he departed. Later on his own authoritv. Sheriff Chandler placed Small under arrest pending instructions from the countv solicitor. The agent of a life insurance com pany to-day made known that in January last he had written a joint policy on the lives of Small and his wife, Mrs. Arlene Small, for $20,000. He solicited the business, he said, and both the husband and wife partici pated in the negotiations that led to the issuance of the policv. Before his arrest, Small had an nounced that he would give SI,OOO for the discovery of the person who killed his wife. After his arrest he refused to make any statement. Tn 1909 Small sued A. H. Soden, widely known as one of the three owners of the Boston National League baseball club for $500,000 for aliena tion of Mrs. Small's affections. He was awarded SIO,OOO.

The 100 boys and girls in the dis trict from Thirteenth to Crescent, and from Mulberry to Kittatinny streets, will not be permitted to enter school for at least two weeks, because of the case of infantile paralysis which de veloped in that district several days ago.

In the Allison Hill district every available room was filled and in the West End district eight rooms of the new W. S. Steele building were opened to provide for the increasing number of school children. Although much of the time this morning was devoted to giving out supplies, many of the teachers began work this afternoon. Nothing has been decided upon by the school board, to make up for the eighteen days' lost time because of the State quarantine. Parochial schols will open on Mon day morning with an enrollment of more than 800 pupils, it was an nounced to-day, and the Harrlsburg Academy sessions will begin also on Monday. At the Riverside school, 175 students are enrolled in the various courses. Private schools will open next week also. Beginners may start during the next two weeks provided their parents present the proper vac cination certificate when they take them to the buildings.

The strenuous program laid before him by the national chairman was vetoed by the nominee himself, who merely appeared on the rear platform of his car so that the crowds might see him at stations between Saratoga and Binghamton. It had been arranged to have him speak at these stations, but at the last moment it was decided to have local speakers take his place so that he might conserve his voice. Mr. Hughes spoke of the protective tariff. "I tell you, fellow citizens," he said, "we are facia* a critical period. It is no time to be talking of a tariff for revenue only. We need protection to our industries, and there is no man in the country to-day who can tell you where the Democratic party stands with respect to protection of American interests. United States and to make our country prosperous, and we'll never do it un less labor and capital work together amicably." The nominee renewed his attack on tithe administration for the Adamson bill. He declared that he "would like to see an eight-hour workday," but that he stood squarely for Investigation before legislation and would "not yield an inch either to labor or capital" in : that principle.

Something must be done, and now Is the time to do It. There are places available in Harrls burg where an emergency hospital may be established. "I understand one or more churches can be leased, and several halls are available, and would be suitable for a hospital. I am looking over build ings in the city and will be able to tell later the plans I shall recom mend.

The strikers in trades outside the street car men include about 10 000 brewery workers and machinists. ' ECHO OF TROLLEY STRIKE IN TRIAL OF 'SYMPATHIZER' A. M.
