ONLY FOUR ARRESTS MADE
Hawthorne BOOkmakers Profit by Their

Another Raid Made by the Invading Army Of
Deputies With Meager Results

CHICAGO, May 1.-THE civic fedora
tion made another descent on Hawthorne
today, but the invading army of deputies
was small and the result in prisoners
was meager. The only object OF the raid
was to prevent the selling of pools. there
being no attempt to interfere with the
racing.
The bookmakers, warned by their exper-

They were men who had been selling
pools on the quiet. All four were bound
over to appear in the court at the time

This was the last day OF Hawthorne $

CHARGES OF DRUNKENNESS
Minister iazIeton viii Not 90 Back I
Venezuela

minister Hazieton VIII Not DO Back to
Venezuela
WASHINGTON, May l1.--Seneca Hazel
ton. United States minister to Venezuela,
who Is in Washington ostensibly on leave
OF absence from his post will not return
to Venezuela. While Admiral Meade was
ut Lagpayra with his squadron this spring
he had occasion to communicate with
the United States legation at Caracas.
The president is said to have acted imme-
diately and this accounts for the minis
ter's sudden departure from Venezuela
for Washington. Admiral Meade's re-
port, according to persons who knew
what transplred at I4aguayra, reflected as
severely on the sobriety of the minister,
and asserts that the business of the lega-
tion, almost from the date when he took
charge year ago, has been conducted al
together by the secretary of the legation.
Mr.. Bartelman, who has been stationed at
Caracas for the past five years. Mr.. Haz-
elton arrived here Thursday and has
since been in consultation with state and
navy department officials lie has de-
sired to present his side of the case to
Secretary Gresham. but owing to the lat
ter's sickness the conferences have been
with Assistant Secretary Uhl. The min
lister has asked for copy of the charges
made by Admiral Meade. but the depart
ment has not felt at liberty to give them.
When seen by a reporter of the Associ-
ated Press. Mr.. Hazelton said: II wish to
be entirely frank on this subject. l un-
derstood Admiral Meade had made re-
port containing serious charges against
me. but have not seen the report. 1t is
doubtless due to the admiral's feelings
concerning events which happened dur
ing his recent visit to Venezuela. All did
not go as smoothly as possible. and the
admiral was much displeased with his
visit. Before leaving Laguayra he stated
he would report that l was drunk at tn
reception rendered him. This and other
things explain the animus Of the charge.

BERLIN, May lin view OF the re-
lection by the reichstag of paragraph Ill
of the anti-revolution bill. which prac-
ticaly sealed the fate of that measure,
nobody was surprised when the reichstag
today, after rejecting paragraph Ill. re-
fused to further discuss the bill, and all
its amednments were withdrawn. Then

was rejected without debate and the
reichstag adjourned.
Though the rejection OF the anti-revolu-

has followed che popular agitation against
it. and although the rejection Yesterday
of paragraph Ill hopelessiy emasculated
the bill. the discussion of the other Sec
TOMS dragged along for a time, as the
government did not intend to withdraw
the measure, although continuance of
the debate only promised further humili-
alton for the government, therefore the
coup de grace administered to the unpop-

discussion was that OF Herr Groeber,

to be pulled out as laws on the other

in support of the bill, he asserted. only
put weapons in the hands OF the Social
lists. Herr Groeber then proceeded to
protest against the dictatoral attitude as.
sumed by DR.. Schoenstadt. the Prussian
minister of Justice, toward the Center
party and declared that the party would
decline another responsibility fol the
measure.
DR.. Schoenstadt replied in speech
which only served to further embitter
matters and to leave the government at
loggerheads with the Center patry.

ened with the remarks of DR.. Sigl, editor
OF the Bavarian katterland, and whose
