There may be trouble In Mexico on
September 10 and there may be none.
but II Is best for the Americans. who
ara living I'm Sonora ~ who gn there
frequently on business. who II they
are in the country at the time of the
threatened trouble. Ia keep their
heads cool aud their feet warm. SAYS
the Bisbee. Arizona. Miner.
Although 1t has been officially de.
MED from all parts Of Mexico that
there will be no revolution on the IA
tionai holiday. IL IL not SO certain that
there will not be local disturbances,
directed ut Americans and caused al.
most wholly by race feeling. which has
reached the straining point In several
Sonora localities. The Miner Is re.
liably informed that the Mexicans In
certain parts Of Sonora are preparing
Tor trouble and that the government
Is prepared or will be ut that time. to
promptly squelch any outbreak. but
they will be poweriess to prevent IN
dividual attacks on Americans In iso'
lated places. n the Americans persist
Ia disregarding warnings and parad'
ing their hrayado.
In some cases which have been re-
ported the feeling against Americans
Is caused almost wholly by the Amer.
leans themselves, who have gone Into
another mans country and there
treated the latter with insolence. ridi.
cuie and contempt. ANY American in
his own country would DO quick to
resent an insult 10 his country Or his
people by a foreigner j.
There will be no general outbreal:
In Mexico. but 1t Is almost q certainty
that there with he slight disturbances
and II but one American Is killed or
wounded through his " careless
ness or foolishness, it will be suffic'
lent for some to demand restitution
or intervention which win lei inter.
national complications and which will
do more to iniure American interests
I'm Mexico than anything which could
occur there. q ~

THE PEOPLE GETTING TIRED?

Will there come a time when the
whole American people will unite in
support of some one man for the pres
dency. no other candidate being pro-
posed or thought Of?
1t may be so. We wish it might
come about in 1908.
Should such situation arise the
platform on which the American
people will stand. all together-not a
kicker among them-will naturally be
very short and simple. Indeed it may
consist of less than half line of the
narrowest column of the smallest
newspaper in the land. Here it is:

ices in st. Ludmilla's Roman Cath

Albany avenue, three children anc
one woman were killed and a score Of
other persons injured, several serious

The majority Of the worshippefs in
the church at the time were women
and children, and for a few minutes
all were in a tangled mass fighting tt
escape from the supposed danger
Many persons jumped through the
windows, but greater portion crowd
ed to the central aisle. The grea
weight proved too much for the flool
and some beams supporting it broke
The cracking of timbers increased
the fright of the now terrified womer
and children, and every one in the
place became panic stricken, men
women and children fighting desper
ately with each other in efforts to es
cape. The women and children sui
fered most in the struggle and when
the church was finally emptied, thret
children were lying dead in the aisles
and one woman was so badly huri
that she died on the way to the hos

While the services were in progress

The boy ran away and the police
are unable to learn his identity. A

fire. For a time no one was serious

sagged and the floor swayed and bent
those nearest the new point of danger
turned and fought those pressing be-

herself from this jam, but was
crushed to death in trying to escape
from one of the small doors in the
rear of the church.

FEDERAL LAWMAKERS,

Washington, April 9.-Senators
McLaurin and Morgan addressed the
senate on the railroad rate question,
the former advocating the legislation
and the latter opposing. Senator
Morgan took the position that the pro-
posed legislation was in interference
with the rights of the states to con-
troll corporations created by them
selves, and he said the best way to
check exorbitant railroad rates is to
keep waterways in such condition as
to insure competition.
In the house Mr. Hepburn of Iowa,
replying to a speech of Mr.. Sims of
Tennessee, in which he advocated self
government for the people of the
District of Columbia, made a defence
of its form of government, but
criticised its administration He
did not think two newspaper men and
one army officer who constitute the
board of commissioners the proper
personnel for such government
Washington, April 10-For more
than four hours Senator Bailey
held the undivided attention of the
senate with a speech replying to Sen
ators Spooner and Knox. Senator
Bailey set out with the one end in
view of establishing the soundness OF
his contention that congress has
power to deny to inferior United
States courts the right to suspend
orders of the interstate commerce
commission pending final decision of
cases arising under the proposed
law. This he undertook to do by
citing innumerable decisions and
quoting many authorities. Senator
Hale announced his willingness to
lccept the anti-suspension amend
nent and expressed confidence that
Senator Bailey would on the other
land agree to a broad court review

Washington, April 13.-Immediately
after the journal had been read then

resolution offered by Mr.. Gardner of
Massachusetts to have expunged from
the record certain remarks rejecting

New York Acrimonious words were

who had secured the passage of a
joint resolution some days ago waiv-
ing the immigration laws in the case
of an idiot. Finally Mr.. Dalzell was
drawn into the discussion and there
seemed imminent a clash between the
Pennsylvania and the Mississippian.
when Speaker Cannon ordered both
gentlemen to their seats and directed
that the unparliamentary language
used by Messrs. Dalzell and Williams
be stricken from the record. Owing
to the fact that none of it's members
was prepared to speak on the rail-
road rate bill, that measure was laid
aside in the senate. Among the bills
passed was one increasing the pen
sions of ex-soldiers who lost limbs;
another retiring and pensioning petty
officers and men of the army, navy
and marine corps after 30 years of
service at three-fourths regular pay,
and a third bill increasing pensions of
war soldiers to $40 per
month and making the attainment of
rs years of age evidence of disability.

Washington, April lin the SEN
ate Mr.. Aldrich expressed the opinion
that the end of the general debate
on the railroad rate bill would be-
come apparent before the end of the
present week and that then an agree
ment upon day for vote could be
reached. The statement was made
in response to request by Senator
Tillman for such an agreement.
There was no other discussion OF the
rate bill during the day. The -ses-
sion was almost entirely devoted to
consideration of the conference re-
port on the bill providing for final
settlement of the affairs of the five
civilized tribes of Indians.
After nearly three days of general
debate, with the postOfice appropria-
ton bill as the vehicle for discussion
of a wide range of subjects, the
house reached consideration of the
bill itself. There were number of
lively debates during the day but lit
tie progress was made with the bill
