WHY DID DIAZ STAY AWAY?
His Wife's Illness an Insufficient Rea-
son for Declining.

Washington, Oct. l. President
Diaz's declinaticn of the Chicago invi-
tation has caused much comment in
diplomatic circles. Nominally he de-
clines because of Madame Diazs
health. But as Madame Diaz has been
ill for the last two years, and the
president had previously accepted the
invitation and made arrangements. the
Mexican congress having given him
permission to leave the country and
voted 500 600 for the expenses of the
trip, the reason is not regarded as
sufficient
According to the gossip in diplo-
rnatic circles the declination of the in
vitation is for state reasons and in
wolves the prospective building of The
Nicaragua canal Mexico favors the
Pan-America as against the Nicaragua
route and it is believed would prefer
net to see the canal built by the
United States Furthermore, at the
present time the South and Central
American countries are not over
friendly to the United States and fear
that the new policy of the country may
be to their damage. 1t is the belief IN
Washington that opponents of the
United States in Mexico have been in
nuential enough to induce President
Diaz to abandon his trip, fearing that
his going to Chicago would be accepted
as a token of the intimate relations
existing between the two republics.

F OREIGN NOTES
AND COMMENT

Several new mcrganatic alliances are
about to take place in the cd world
between princes of the blood and
ladies Of merely noble and even Of al
together plebeian rank, and the an
nCmcement serves to call renewed at
! tentiCn to what may be described as
the altogether desperate situation of a
large number OF royal and imperial
maidens Fer some reason all the
Iroyal and imperial families seem to
run to girls.
The number of prineesses born is
more than double that of the royal
and imperial princes who are brought
into the world, and thus it happens
that whereas today there are no less
than eighty manageable princesses
CT thu blood, there are less than forty
scions of royalty, Of the masculine per
suasion, who are free TO wed And the
number OF the latter is certain to BE
still further diminished within the
next few weeks by at last three new
morganatic alliances. At least two
score imperial pTincesses are doomed
to a life of spinsterhC5d unless they
themselves marry dramatically, and,
following the example of Princess Ma
RE of Meckleburg- Schwerin, who con-
feTred her heart and her hand the
other day upon the plebeian but good
looking son and heir 0f a French man
u.acturer of patent medicines.
Plenty CT American girls have mar
ried great mobiles Of the old world. A
few. indeed, have mated with royalty,

ow of King Ferdinand Of Portugal;
Miss Mary Lee Of New York NOW
Ct that royal Prince Frederick of Hol-
stein who was uncle OF the present
emperor of Germany; Miss Alice Heine
CT New Orleans, who is now the full
fedged consort of the reigning prince
of Monaco, and Miss Hamel Of New
York. who married the royal NeapOli-
tan Prince Louis of Bourbon. But SO
far 10 American man mas succeeded
like the here in the novel and of the
fairy tale, in carrying off some royal
princess. 1t would be rather a novelty
were a plain United States citizen to
bring back to this country as his birds
the daughter of some old world king or
emperor.

II Was Alleged That She Murdered Her
Father In Their Home With an Axe.
STRONG ARGUMENT FOR DEFENDANT.
LiWsr Backus POInsd Out Il Would Have Been
impossible for Woman 10 Have Committed Crime
Without Being BsspaItsTsd With Blood.

New York, Nov. 25.-After As minutes
deIiberation the jury which had been
listening TO the evidence IN the trial OF
Nora Jeffries for the murder Of her
father filed into the court room and
took their seats in the jury box at 3:4o
o'clock yesterday amid a solemn still
ness. and in answer to the question Of
Justice Jenks If they had ag:eed upon
a verdict, foreman Clarence A.Ensldnd
arose and said
1--WE find the defendant not guilt"
From the direction where Mrs. JEFF
fries and her friends sat there was u
sigh OF relief, epc the face OF Mrs JEFF
fries. that had during the week been
expressive OF melancholy, was wreathed
in smiles. He. husband, wio sat next
10 her. leaned over toward ard kissed
her on the cheek. white her counsel
ex-D. strict Attorney Backus, left his
seat and shook her hand In oongratu-
lation. Justice jerks called Mrs. JEFF
fries to the bar and told. her she was
discharged as she had had a fair trial
and was found not guilty. Turning to
the jury the Justice said that as they
had heard such a long case, 1t would
not be necessary for them to serve
the balance OF the term as jurors.
Foster l.. Backus made a strong plea
in behalf OF Mrs. Jeffries. His speech
occupied most OF the morning session.
Following him was Assistant District
Attorney Van Cott, who appeared for
the prosecution.
In his address Mr.. Backus showed that
the prosecution had offered no evidence
40 show that some one else had not gone
upstairs 10 the room where Hannah
was killed The strongest point in the
counsers address was his speaking OF
the absence of blood stains on the de-
PENDANTS dress, hands and face. He
showed the axe to the jurymen and
pointed out the clots of blood which
were on the handle OF the axe and told
of the blood that was on the bed, and
which had bespattered the wall.
I'm would have been "A physical inn
possibility for this woman to have KILL
'ed her father with this axe" declared
Mr. Backus in fervent tones, without
getting some OF the blood that spattered
so freely on her clothing, or on her
person. or on her body. L thank God
that she did not wash her hands or that
she did not change her clothes before
she was taken TO the police station. Ii
was an act OF Providence. a safeguard,
which the Almighty threw about her.
At the station house she was examined,
and not the slightest evidence of blood
was about her. This, gentlemen, is the
absolute evidence that this woman did
not and could not have committed the
crime"
The charge by Justice jerks was con-
ceded TO be able and fair.
