Philadelphia, July 1.-The solution

eraf Important things have developed
that may change the complexion of
the case completely. In the first
place the detectives intimate that a
woman probably figured in the case
and that If she can be found prob-
ably will be arrested Just what this
woman may have to do with the case
no one will say. The only admission
is that they are Cooking for a man
and woman"
The civil authorities today invoked
the aid of the postal inspectors to as
sist them in finding whore the letter
was mailed which DR.. Wilson received
notifying him that a sample bottle of
ale had been shipped to him. It is
stated that the letter was printed by a
private individual with an outfit pur-
chased for the purpose and that it is
known where the material was pur-
chased with which the work was done.
The fact that the doctor repaired his
own automobile and only a short time
before the poison ale reached him had
purchased cyanide of potassium to be
used in brazing a part of the auto
bile, is regarded by the police as sig
nificant in that 1t indicates that the
sender of the poison which was cyan
idc of potassium. considered the pos
sibilty of making 1t appear that DR..
Wilson had poisoned himself either by
accident or design.
Coroner Jermon SAYS unequivocally
that DR.. Wilson did not poison himself
either accidentally or otherwise. Mrs.
Wilson is dangerously i'll at her home,
prostrated by the tragedy.

Mexico City July LIN a state
ment made today to the Associated
Press by the state department, through
Senior FREDERICK Gambo. minister of
state, that official said that reports
had been greo,y exaggerated regard
ing trouble il northern Mexico, and
requested that reports be corrected.
In accordapc with your request,
am giving you access to certain docu-
cent troepies had 4 political stsnifi-
mente which Will prove tnat the re-
cancc, said Senior GamDo A num-
ber of kilograms and official docu-
ments were thereupon shown the cor
respondent Of the Associated Press,
which set forth the following facts:
That the recent attacks upon the
villages OF Viesca, Las Vaces and Pal
omas were made by small bands of
malcontents who were driven to depths
of desperation by lack of work, conse-
quent hunger and in enmity toward
the local officials. These men had
been furnished literature of an an
archistic and -inflammatory nature by
agitators in Los Angeles, San Antonio,
Texas, Austin, Texas, and St. Louis. In
no instance had a representative man
led the attacking parties, nor had the
largest group of raiders numbered
more than sixty men, and that the
trouble was practically over
Continuing Minister Gambo said:
"As you have seen, these attacks
have all been made on villages near
the boundary line which separates the
United States and Mexico, which con-
tains lower class and ignorant men.
Mexico, taken completely unaware
by the attacks, asked the cooperation
Of the United States in preserving the
neutrality laws The government and
the people feel deeply grateful fos the
manner In which the co-operation has
been given, even though the trouble Is
of such minor Significance. That is
the plain truth regarding the so-called
revolutionary movement"
At the department of the interior
dispatches were received from Cover
nor Cardenas, state of Coahuila, say
ing that eight of the Viesca raiders

the prisoners were leaders Of the gang.
The men will be tried for murder and
robbery.
The mounted police are closely
pressing the rest of the group and they
have left the mountains and hidden
in the haciendas. hoping thus to pass
off as farm laborers A number of
the horses of the bandits have been
taken.
According to Vice President Corral
the attack on Palomas yesterday
morning was made by twelve men who
came from Douglas. Arlz.. and their
object was the custom house. The
custom house guards and the villagers
repulsed the attack and captured the
leader of bhe raiders, otilio Madrid.
One Of the villagers was killed during

tion contains nearly four hundred
pages, extracts of speeches made in

of them during the month preceding

pected to be the keynote of the con

of New York, and Senator Culberson
of Texas, provided the material for
this chapter in their speeches during
the last days of the session.

GIRL MURDERED.

Miss Mary Robb of Lewisville and
st. Anthony, who died at Blackfoot
on May 18th, is said to have been
brought to her grave by a criminal
operation, but whether 1t was done
by herself or somebody else we are
unable to say. Certain 1t is that she
was morally murdered by man or
men of Lewisville and Rigby, and
physical murder followed in attempt
to hide her shame. The Rigby Star
exposed the matter and prosecuting
attorneys Xix of Fremont county and
Mcconnell Of Bingham county have
been working on the case for some
time. w. H. Holden of Idaho Falls
and Jas. H. Wallis of Rexburg have
been employed by the girls parents
to help investigate and prosecute,
and seven persons have been arrest
ed for completely in the matter. The
body of Miss Robb was exhumed re-
Gently to determine certain things by
post norton examination, and some
very damaging evidence was obtain
ed. Messrs. Wallis and Holden were
here the first of the week working
on the case, and preliminary hear
ing was to have been commenced at
Rexburg Thursday. but it is thought
that the preliminary will be dispens-
ed with, and the case tried in the
court at Blackfoot.
We have assurance that some
startling disclosures will be made in
the trial, and some grave lessons
taught. Members of the press have
been Withholding considerable mat
ter from publication, in order to give
the prosecution asbetter chance to
run down all the facts in the case.

:. Petitions are being circulated over
the city this week and will be pre-
sented at the next meeting of the
city council asking the council to
enact an ordinance prohibiting the
sale of intoxicating liquors in the
city. The circulation of the petition
is the result Of meeting held sew
eral days ago at the Christian church
which was called by Rev. Edward

reads as follws: Whereas, the laws
of the state of Idaho confer upon
cities the right to enact and enforce
a law prohibiting the sale of intox-
icating liquors, and, whereas, the ma
jority of the citizens of the city of

Of such an ordinance; now. therefore,
we the undersigned citizens and resi-

LIKED THE PRESS SUPPLEMENT

Miss Byram of Payette read the
press supplement that was sent out
last week with The Republican, and
sent us the following comment:
wish SO much that you could have
printed more of the toasts. Trouble
Man" Burn EN- up, but Don't Use
My Name" and tits Boy; Take
One On Me-" Who'd be an Editor!"
is an almost heart rending appeal. 1t
made me want to sit right down and
write a letter, of sympathy to the
brave souls who persevere in we'll do
ing in the face of such insurmount-
able difficulties and lack of appre-
citation.
Editors note: The press supple
ment was printed by the Rexburg
Standard at the request of the edi-
tors who wanted to give their readers
an account of the press meeting and
their trip. BY having one printing
house print enough for all, and then
ship them to the other offices by ex-
press, it enables all of them to use
It the same day, and at trifling
expense as compared with the cost of
having each Office set it and print it.
The cost of last weeks supplement
was about $12 per thousand deliv-
cred at the postoffice for distribu-
ton to the readers. but the cost of
getting the forms ready to print one
copy, with all the illustrations,
would be about $50 in addition to the
cost of taking the photos.
Other plans of presenting accounts
of the club meetings to the readers
were tried with varying success, but
the use Of the supplement on this
plan was adopted by The Republican
last November and was followed this
year by the Standard, but their stem
ographer did not get all of the
speeches, and while the big press
was printing supplements for ship
ment, the face flew off of one of the
large cuts on the front page and
made a general smash-up of the
forms. For that reason some of the
offices that ordered supplements to
use last week did not get any.
We did not learn whether it was
the face of the cut that printed the
sentlemen's picture or the ladies
hat tore things to pieces. We think
t is up to Editor Wallis of the Stand
ard to explain, and then we can de-
eide which bunch shall be ''heard
Ind not seem" at future meetings of
he club.
