ZELAYA A FUGITIVE.
Deposed Nicaraguan Dictator Flees to
COrinto

Jose Santos Zelaya, the ex-president
of Nicaragua, has taken himself out
of the country and is now aboard the
Mexican gunboat General Guerrero
bound for Salina Cruz.
Under the cover of darkness Thurs
day morning Zelaya, accompanied by
a heavily armed guard, proceeded to
Corinto, in which port the Mexican
warship had been lying for several
days, close to the United states pro-
tected cruiser Albany. Other Ameri-
can warships swung at anchor in the
harbor, with marines aboard, lazily
awaiting instructions.
Zelaya's coming was unheralded,
but a guard from the Guerrero re-
ceived him and soon he was safe I'M
der the protection Of the Mexican
flag. At ) o'clock in the afternoon
the warship weighed anchor and
pointed out to sea.
A salute of Is guns was fired from
the shore, and hundreds of soldiers
and citizens waved the former die
tator farewell from the beach.

Appeal Law Of 1909 Is Invalid.

The supreme court handed down a
decision. declaring unconstitutional
the law enacted by the legislature last
winter, providing for appeals from the
equalization between townships as
fixed by the boards of supervisors.
This law, known as Act No. 292, pro-
vided for the appointment of a COM
mittee of appeals in case a super
visor was not satisfied with the equal
ization as fixed by the board, one
member to be selected by the super
visor making the appeal. one by the
board and those two TO choose a third
member. The case decided was the
one brought from Bay county and two
other cases from Manistee and Mus
kegon counties were also presented
to the court
The validity of the law was at
tackled on the grounds that judicial
power is conferred on the committee,
that it deprives counties of the right
Of self-government, that the tribunal
or agency created is not an impartial
one and that the act as amended is
incomplete and defective and not a
workable law.

north of Wayne, plowed so feet, ca
reening through the snow, and after
hitting and breaking telephone pole,
turned on its side, jumbling its occu-
pants in confused heaps among brok-
en- glass, iron and wood.
The car was occupied for the most
part by jolly home-comers who had
spent Christmas and the following
day with friends and relatives in
Worthwhile and Plymouth. About half

mouth Is minutes late and according
to the passengers was running at a
high rate of speed.

from Motorman Collar this morning.
Collar says he lives in Ypsilanti

road, night and day, for two months.
and admits that he should be fcmil-
lar with the route. He was aware
that about 700 feet from the curve
there is sign warning motormen of
the bend in the track. He says he
does not know how he happened to
miss the sign, but did not see it.
1--WE were on the curve before |
knew it," he said. 81 shut off the
current and put on the air. Then we
went Off"
Collar picked himself up dazed and
bruised. He says he helped carry the

was unaccOunted for till morning,
when he arrived in Ypsillnti, bare
