Senator T. j. Liable is a candi-
date for the Presidency of the
State Senate and appears to have
the best chance of securing the
position. Mr. Liable spent seve-
raj days in New Orleans this week
in the interest of his candidacy.
The gamblers of Lafayette are
in distress, the saloonists of that
town appealed to the Council to
not enforce this ordinance until
after the end of this year, because
in taking the high liquor license
they figured on the profits of their
gambling department, and the sup
pressing of this part of their re-
venues will cause them a great in
jury. The Council refused to in
terfere and the ordinance will be
strictly enforced.
At eight O'Clock Saturday night
the fire alarm was given and it
was at once apparent that some
building was on fire. 1t Was soon
learned that The pest bouse on the
outskirt of the town was the bull
ding on fire. The pest house was
built several years ago by the town
when there was small pox in the
parish. The last time this bull
ding was use.i, was during the
yellow fever quarantine.

WASHINGTON, April 1z.-The
attack on Consul General Straight

cosulate at Mukden by Japanese row.
dies, led by postrnan, has stirred the
administration to action. It is re-
garded as a much more serious af-

and prompt action will undoubtedly
be taken to obtain the reparation that
Japan has so far refused.
A conference upon the subject was
held at the White House tonight by
the president, Secretary Taft and Sec
retary OF State Root Il was assumed
at the conference that Colonel Straight
had made a report of the incident to
Minister Rockhili at Peking and that
he would communicate the facts to the
state department without delay.
To insure his doing so cable mes
sages were sent tonight to both Rock
hfII and Consul Straight asking for all
the facts. A reply is expected tonor-

night:

determined by the insufferable tactics
