with a patient to the Bethesda hos

the call and a curious part about it
was that a patient had been returned

Mexico City. Aug. 14.-That there lis any Likelihood of an uprising in Northern Mexico because of the pre- sent political activity displayed in the States of Coahuiia and Nuevo Leonfs emphaticaily denied by General Manuel Gonzales Cisco, minister of war who in an interview today said.
 "There is no reason to believe that the people of these states would start q revolution or even attempt one. The country is not like 1t was thirty or forty years ago, when any little state could start a revolution and cause trouble. At the present time, the Fed- eral government has all the money ammunition. soldiers and artillery and would be informed at once of any dis- turbancs in order to take the proper steps to check it.
 The minister of war explains the presense of so many troops in that section as merely coincidence. they change of military headquarters.

JURY HOLDS SHELTON
TWO MEN CHARGED WITH LYDIA
 ROSS MURDER.
Cord With Which Woman Was Strnngled Traced to Origin--- Preliminary Hearing Set
 For August 30.

Florence. Aug. 14.-(SpeciaL )--Dee Shelton and Prentice Johnson are held responsible for the murder of Lydia Ross in the verdict given last night by the coroner's jury. This decision was given after 8 strong net of cir- oumstanial evidence had been woven about the two men.
 The body of Lydia Ross was found several days ago half concealed In pile of bay. A cord about the throat gave evidence of the method of the slayer. Money and jewels which she was known to possess were miss ing. A short time later Shelton and Johnson were arrested, suspected of being implicated in the crime.
 It Is said that the evidence which, was furnished by Chief of Police Her. Is strong and will have an important bearing on the result of the prelimi- mary trial which has been set for August 90.
 It is declared that the strand of cord used to strangle the woman has been traced to It's origin. The cord Is of the variety used by postal clerks in tying packages of letters, and 1t was proved that bale of cotton hauled by Shelton had been tied with this same peculiar kind of cord.
 A ring said to have been the posses sion of Lydia Ross was taken from Shelton after the crime. but he main- tains that 1t was given to him some time before the murder.

DIsLIKES NEW LAW
FRANCE OBJECTS TO SHORT MO-
 TICE ON TARIFF TREATY.
Alleges discrimination on Part of UnI- ted stntes and Fears of Tar
 in War Are Being En- Gerfafuea.

Paris, Aug. iG.-France's position on the American tariff is absorbing the attention of the government officials and Ambassador Jusserand. who re- gently arrived here from his post at Washington. has postponed for time his departure for his country place in order to confer with Prime Minister Burand and Minister ef Commerce Dur py. For the present. however, no de- cisipn as to Frances program Is ex- pected.
 Meantime French sentiment is one of deep astonishment that the United States should arbitrarily terminate the existing Franeo-American tariff on three months' notice without previous ly. informing France and thus give her the opportunity to express her views. As the American agreement with other countries stipulate six months or one years notice. French expectations are placed for the time being at a consid- erable disadvantage.
 The French press, rejecting the com mercial sentimeneNof the country, is greatly exercised. More conservative organs counsel calmness and the avoid ance of destructive tariR war. but some of them fear that the ultra-pro- tectionists will force the hand of the government and tarif reprisals win re- suit.
 It is pointed out that If this should eventually occur. France would run the risk of encountering AmeFica's prohib- live mQximum rates Chairman Klotz of the parliamentary commission for the revision of the tariff. is quoted as saying that the increased American du l. ties which hit France are bound to be followed by equivalent increases by France as a measure of economic ne- eessity.

GAS EXPLODES IN SUBMARINE One Men Killed, Fourteen

 Graft. While Making Test of Motor, Bensine is Isnited Through Carelessness --Machinist. Hurled In
 All Directions.

St. Petersburg, Aug. 14-An explo- son on board the submarine Dragon. which was lying In the Neva River. in- jured fourteen persons today, twelve Russian laborers, Engineer Joseph NJ Meads of Baltimore. and Russian na- val fireman.
 One of the laborers died in hospital from his injuries. The others are not thought to be seriously hurt.
 Engineer Meads. who was In charge of the motors and who was giving them a trial when the explosion occurred. was not seriously hurt In his effort to stop the motors he was burned about the arms and face slightly.
 The explosion appears to have result ed from the ignition of the benzine supply which was taken on while the motor was working. Several of the workmen were hurled into the water but were quickly picked up by boats which came to their rescue. The fire following the explosion burned for lsev- eral hours. and destroyed the board floor over the batteries and other wooden structure work.

 trustRul of Japan.
 London, Aug. 14.-While the imperial defense conference had little trouble fin eliminating a scheme for the army, the delegates found the naval question hard problem to solve. All the col- onles readily agreed to pay a fair share of the cost of the navy but dis cussion as to the possible form of con tributions disclosed aSsharp difference between the admiralty and the Cana dian and Australian delegates.
 This was particularly true with re- spect to Great Britain's recent policy. When the Anglo-Japanese treaty was concluded. Great Britain withdrew the greater part of her fleet from the Chi ma coast and entirtly abolished the Northern Pacific fleet, both of which could be used in conjunction with an Australian squadron t0 protect British trade and British possessions in all parts of the Pacific
 The home government sees no dan ger in that part of the world and has full confidence in her Eastern ally, The colonial delegates howeve2 per- sistently pictured Japan as rival who might some day become possessed of a desire for more territory. They. there fore, while agreeing to contribute to the maintenance of the main fleet, de- termined that the greatest energy should be exerted to provide defenses for their own coasts and trade
