Choose Their Own Doctor.

1t is probable that some day or
other legislatures will stop enacting
medical practice laws and allow peo-
pie to choose their own doctors,
whether they are graduates of GER
tain colleges or not. There is an evil
dent tendency in tina. direction in the
Illinois Legislature. where it is pro-
posed to exempt mental healers from
the control of the state board of
health. The inclination is obviously
to allow greater freedom to practi-
cioners outside of the existing close
corporation, and perhaps it is just as
we'll that the inclination grows

DIED OF STARVATION.
Aged Man Lives Weeks Without

Practically starved to death in the

ped dead Monday afternoon in front
of 500 Clybourn avenue, Chicago. q

Gamblers Trick Officers.

Hamond, Ind, April ia clever
ruse, worked by the attorneys of the
Saith Perry White poolroom syndi-
cate, gave the gamblers an opportun-
ity 10 take care of their property at
Dearborn Park before the prospect
i've raid of today Attorney General
Bingham lnd Chief Fred Rimbach
were clearly outwitted by the gamb-
lers, who circulated the report that
restraining order against the State
officials, who have declared war on
the poolroom, had been issued. Later
the gamblers capitulated and will quit
Indiana SOIL
An application for a restraining
order against the State officials and
the local police was filed in the Cir
cult Court today and the application
was read to Bingham, Rimbach and
the latters two men, who were at
Clark Station, by Deputy Sheriff
James frost. The ruse worked for
the day and operations were resumed
at Deaborn Park by the syndicate.
Later in the day when the ruse was
discovered Chief Rimbach dispatched
his men to Clark Station again to
take possession. Judge H. B. Tuthill
wired from Michigan City that ne is
sued no restraining order. Attorney
W. J. McAleer and J. A. Gavitt are
representing the syndicate.
1t is thought that the ruse was
being used in order to give the pool
room owners time to take care oil
their property instead of letting the
police confscate it. The application
for the restraining order was made by
Ernest Flechsig, wha was in charge
of the buffet at the oolroom.

Leveled Towns Dot Mexico.

City of Mexico, April I6.-Reports
tonight from various points along the
west coast show that the devastation
wrought by the earthquake shocks,
which continued until o'clock this
morning, has been much greater than
at first supposed
Besides the destruction of the cities
of Chilpancingo and Chilapa, it is
now reported that the city of Tixtla,
between the two cities above named
and containing about the same popu-
lation as Chilpancingo, 5000, was also
leveled to the ground, and messen-
gers from the coast who have reach
ed Chilpancingo say that the towns
of Ayutla and Ometepec have been
wiped off the map.
Ayutla is about fifty miles south of
Chilpancingo in the state of Guerrero
and some twenty miles west of the
port of Acapulco. 1t is one of the
most historic towns in the republic,
for it was here that the plan of Ayu-
| tia" was conceived which caused the
revolution which finally made Mexico
real republic The population OF
| Ayutla is small and it is thought that
the loss of life at this place will be
insignificant. Ometepec is farther
south near the boundary line of the
states Of Guerrero and Oaxaca. 1t is
town of about 1000 inhabitants and
it is feared that the loss of life here
may be heavier than at Ayutla.
| Tlapa "a town eighty miles west of
Chilpancingo and near the border
line of the state of Oaxaca, is also re
ported to have been wiped out The
| report from Chilpancingo says that
the whole of the west coast from Ac-
capulco, south to Salina Cruz, the Pa
cifc terminal of the Tehuantepec Ma
tional railway, Mexico's new trans
continental road, which was opened
with elaborate ceremonies last Janu-
airy by President Diaz, has been bad
ly damaged.
1t is reported that Acapulco is part
ly submerged from the great waves
which dashed over the breakwaters.

when the earth began to tremble the
sea was dashed into fury, and as the

the appearance of a tyhoon swep,

has been submerged is not known.
A number of the ships were in the
harbor when the first shock came.
but these put out to sea and it is said
none of them suffered to any extent
| Up to O'Clock this morning the
shocks continued with more or less
severity in the vicinity of Chilpan-
cingo, completing the work of de-
struction and destroying many of the
most important public buildings OF
the city The new municipal palace
which was erected in place of its pre-
decessor, which was leveled by ar
earthquake four years ago, was al
most destroyed by these last shocks

BRYAN FOR REVISION.
Nebraskan Now Supports Reduced
Tariff Without Waiting.

MILWAUKEE. Wis. November 12.-At
the banquet of the Jefferson Club in
Milwaukee last evening William J. Bryan
was the guest of honor, and in his
speech he declared for immediate tariff
revision. He condemned the national in
0rrroration of railroads proposed by
tsident Roosevelt saying that such
plan was in the interests of the railroads.
which desire not greater federal reguia-
ton, but escape from state regulation.
He favored the enforcement OF the Grim
inal laws against the trusts and the en-
actment of new laws. one OF which pro-
vides for what is known as the license
system. to be applied to corporations
when they control as much as % per cent
of the tota! output in their respective
lines According to this system, no one
corporation would be permitted to con-
rol more than 80 per cent of the total
product.
He favored immediate revision of the
tariff, beginning with articles which come
into competition with the trust-made ar.
ticles Such a tariff. he thought, ought
to be entirely removed. On the railroad
question he expressed himself in favor
Of more stringent regulation, that resU-
latson to take the form of legislation
ascertaining the present value of the
railroads. preventing the watering Of
stock and reducing rates.
Mr. Bryan contended that reasonable
rate would be one that would enable the
railroads to maintain their stock at par
when the road was honestly capitalized
He said the present money stringency
began with speculation in New York but
that it had extended. owing to the timid-
ity of depositors. He thought that this
tlinidity WAS not justified, and that the
banks of the west were sound. He ia
vored legislation which, by increasing
the security of depositors. would remove
even al unreasonable fear.

with q recent discovery Of treason in the
French navy and espionage on the part
Of agents of a foreign power.
Ensign Charles B. Cllmo OF the French
navy was arrested at Toulon October y
on the charge Of being a spy. An ex
animation of his effects showed him to
have been in possession of many valua Bile
documents and he afterward confessed
to having abs:racted a secret signal book

officer named Burton was afteTward ar
rested at Nendone on similar charges.

It was understood that warrants had been

just back from a special tariff inquiry in

for the benefit Of the appraisers a great
deal of the existing misunderstanding
about the German agreement Mr.. Rey-
nolds made clear and uneouvocal state
ment as 10 what was expected of the OIL
GERS in making appraisements under this
treaty, and he took particular pains to
bring cut the fact that the agreement ap-
plies to other countries as we'll as to Ger
many
This is the first pronouncement from a
high official source to an opinion which
has long prevailed in customs circles,
namely, that since the United States can
not grant to one country commercial privi-
ieges which are being denied to another
no other document outside OF the Gernan
agreement is necessary to secure to
France, Austria, or any other country the
same concessions as TO export price. etc,
that have been granted to Germany
Besides the official expression of opin-
ION to the appraisers. Mr.. Reynolds in
an interview later, said that the admin
istration had always regarded the treaty
as nothing more Or less than an interpre-
tation of the customs administrative act
and that the view accepted in some quar-
terS, that the agreement is a series of
special concessions to Germany is entirely
srroneouc. Moreover, the adminstra ton
fully Intended that the one agreement
should stand for all countries.
