TROOPS SENT TO
RESTORE PEACE
S0-CaIIed Revolution in Mexico
Likely to SubSide in
Short Order.

Washington, June 27.-During a call
at the state department today Senior
Godoy, who. in the absence Of Am
bassadOr Creel. is representing the
Mexican government at Washington,
discussed with Acting Secretary Adee
the situation growing out Of the revo-
lutiOnary movements in Mexico. The
Mexican government has requested that
the United States assist in preventing
violations of the neutrality laws.
Senior GOdOy's adviCes from the scene
of trouble are very brief and import
ant details are lacking. From Ambas-
sador Thompson at the City of Next
co the state department has received a
dispatch indicating that on Wednesday,
in the state Of CCahuila, there was a
revolutionary movement in which 200
men made an effort to pTecipitate d
disturbance by taking possession of a
place called Viesca. The government
has taken precautions TO prevent fur
Their trouble and has sent troops to the
disturbed region. Wire communication
is interrupted and news from the source
of trouble is slow.
UnOfficialiy the state department has
been advised of the arrest of the al
legged reyolutionists at Ell PasO, Tex,
charged with fOmenting a revolution
against a friendly government on Amer
lean soil.
The American government has con-
sistently shown a desire TO CO-Opera te
with the Mexican government in sup
pressing movements of this character.
and indicated its willingness at all
times to apprehend persons charged
with such Offenses.

conviction. and that if those who

INDICTED NAN
ENDS HIS LIFE
BY STRYCHNINE
Theodore Schultz Commits
Suicide While Thought to
Be Mentally Deranged.
WAS A MINOR FIGURE
IN COAL LAND CASES
BODY FOUND IN ROOM AT VEL
LlNGTON HOTEL "a HOURS
AFTER DEATH.

BrOoding over an Indictment by the fed
eral grand jury for alleged coal land
frauds caused the suicide of Theodore G.
Schultz. a well known young insurance
man and abstractOr. who since the first
of the year had been in the employ of
Russell L. Tracy & co. The body was
found yesterday afternoon at $50 O'Clock
in Room 225 on the third floor of the
Wellington hotel on First South and Third
West streets. Schultz took One-siXteenth of
an ounce of strychnine, which caused
death some time Friday afternoon. His
worry over the coal land fraud cases,
in which he was one of the defendants,
and excessive drinking are believed to
have affected his mind and for the past
year his friends have believed him at
times partially insane.
Schultz went to the office of Russell
l.. Tracy Friday noon apparently under
the influence Of liquor. He told James
". Collins, who was in charge of the
office. that he was going TO commit sui
eide because of the indictment hanging
over him. As Schultz had made similar
threats almost every time he was drink
ing Mr.. Collins did not attach any seri-
BUSINESS to the remarks, but sent him
home to sober up. One OF the young
men in the office put Schultz on a Third
avenue car and he apparently started for
the home of his father Gustav Schultz,
a mining engineer, living at - / street
He evidently got off the car before it
had gone far and returned 10 town.
