Prince Withstood Shock.

The only way which other newspaper
men had of circumventing the secre-
tary's orders was to get out of bed long
before davbreak, snatch a hasty break
fast, board the customs launch at SIX
thirty, and go out with the customs and
immigration officers to the vessel, and
then whale away an hour out on the
broad bosom Of the deep ocean, which
heaved and rolled the customs launch
until the aforesaid breakfast rested on
uncertain moorings, until pratique was
granted. When finally aboard the news
apermen had an opportunity TO greet
members Of the Princes suite and
found them atfable and not very much
aghast over the presence of newspaper

Then the Prince embarked IN his
limousine, the troops wheeled and the
Prince was received at the naval sta
ton where more guns banged salute

teously by Rear-Admiral Rees with all
the pomp and panoply of war in time

fred by the naval station battery early
in the morning as the Nanchuria en-
tered the harbor.
Then finally the Prince sped away TO
the Chinese consulate on Sheridan

fully all afternoon until it was time to
return to the ship. At the consulate
he had opportunity to satisfy his fill

Chinese Stay Away.

The Chinese failed to turn out en-
maSSe as was expected. They probably
remembered the curt treatment they re
eeived from Prince Tsai 7 40 during
the young man s visit here some months
ago and the more than naughty treat
ment accorded them by Prince Ii, son
of the late Ii Hung Chang, who was
Prince Tsai Tao s mentor.

Fine Appearance of Troops.

When the party went ashore the
scribes trOtted along in the rear of the
procession. Happily none of the Chi
nese officers wore long, curved scimi-
tars and their onward progress was not
barred by oriental bodyguards. Ont in
the street the ranking officer called the
troops to attention and instantly sabers
flashed as the blades went up and back
and rested against the shoulder, and
rifles snapped to the present arms. The
Hawaiian band played the Chinese ma

with only his chief of staff, and Chief

with eagle penetration.
In the next machine were Admiral

from the public gaze into the sacred

NEW TRIAL FOR HYDE.
1t May Result From Incident Dating
Back IL Years.

Helena, Mont, Nov. 24.-If DR.. B.
Z. Hyde is awarded a new trial, it will
probably be because Joe Edgerton, a
prominent Helena mining man and
member of the last legislative assem-
bly,, saw Hyde's name in the directory
of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity.
Mr. Edgerton told the Associated
Press the full story of how he sent
two pounds, and how, over seventeen
years later, he came to let Hyde's at
torneys know of this fact.
Edgerton's statement is considered
of great importance to Hyde, in view
of the fact that the latter, during his
trial could not explain to the satisfac-
ton of the jury where he had pro-
cured cyanide, which he admitted he
had been using for many years.
Edgerton's statement follows in
part:
'Tn April or May. 1898. after having
lost my health in Montana, was on a
crowded train between Cherryvale and
Kansas City. My seatmate was a
young man whom it afterwards de-
veloped was Hyde. I was just able to
be about and our talk naturally hinged
about my illness and from that we got
to talking about cyanide. Hyde ap-
peared to be interested in cyanide and
as had been using the stuff in min
ing operations, I promised to send him
some. In July of that year I was at
Hill City, S. D., in charge of mining
property and one day when the mine
closed down, I filed chalk box with
cyanide and rode into town and mall
ed it to the young doctor. I wrote him
a note on the letter head of a banking
house, explaining that I had sent the
stuff I thought no more about it for
many years, but when Hyde's trial
came on, followed it closely.
Desiring to avoid publicity, l could
not make up my mind to let Hyde
know that I recalled the incident. One
day last summer, I was on a train in
northern Montana, when I became en-
gagged in conversation with two ladies
from Kansas City, and we talked
about the Hyde case. From them I
secured the name of Hyde's attorney
About six weeks ago. while examin-
ing a college fraternity directory, 1
found the name of the Kansas City
doctor and then it was that wrote to
him, in care of his attorney and re-
called the incident of having sent him
the cyanide IT years ago.
Mr.. Edgerton has heard nothing
from his letter, aside from the story of
the Associated Press.

STUBS IN TEXAS.
The Congress Adopted His Red Hot
Anti-RaiIroad Resolutions.

San Antonio, Tex, Nov. A.-Railroads
and trusts were criticized in resolutions
introduced by Governor Stubbs, of Kan
sas Wednesday, and unanimously
adopted by the Transmississippi Com
mercial congress.
One set urges the national congress
to enact legislation providing for the
valuation of railroads in detail.
The second set calls upon the nation
al congress to amend the Sherman anti
trust law, making it mandatory and
providing Imprisonment for all viola
tons.
Another urges congress to enact
law to regulate the issuance of stocks
and bonds of interstate railroads with
out entrenching upon the right of states
to regulate their corporate and domes-
tic affairs.
Still another is worded:
That we urge upon the interstate
commerce commission that it correct
these abuses by prescribing rates to
the gulf ports which, with due regard
to cost of service and distance, are rea-
sonable and which are not based on
rates to and through these so-called
gateways, plus the rates back over the
same line and thence to the gulf

MAY STOP RACES.
Revolution Is Causing Anxiety a
CUidad JuareZ.

Ell Paso, Tex, Nov. 24.-Promoter
of the Juarez race track are on the
anxious seat regarding the prospects
of the sport across the river. With
the revolution in the surrounding
states seemingly gaining ground, fear
is expressed that the meeting, which
is scheduled to begin here today will
be interfered with. Up to the present
time the revolutionists have not men
aced Juarez.
Already there are several hundred
horses here, and it will prove a great
hardship to the horsemen if the meet
should be interfered with.
There is much speculation as to the
future relations between the Mexican
government and the track promoters.
The Mexican government up to this
time has looked with favor on the en-
terprise and the concession has many
more years to run.
Moreover, should the revolutionists
come out victorious it is hard to tell
what would become of the venture.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars have
already been invested in the plant
There is no question but there is a
strong feeling against Americans on
the other side of the Rio Grande, and
should it be possible to hold the meet
ing there at all, the patronage will

Danger to AIdrich's Business.
New York, Nov. M.-One of the
most important American enterprises
in Mexico which are likely to suffer
heavy losses from the present revolt
is the intercontinental rubber COM
pany which has offices in this city
and in which Senator Nelson w. Aid
rich is largely interested. The com
pany has a plant at Torreon, which
turns out one million pounds of rub
Der a month, and Senator Aldrich' S
son, Edward B. Aldrich, the treasurer
of the company, is now at the plant.
The plant manager, an American
named Corbett and a few foremen and
engineers are about the only employees
| who are not natives.
Those who are connected with the
company in New York declare that
they are not worried at the reports

Immigration Officers Are Watching
for the Leneve Woman.

New York, Nov. 24.-Immigration
officers here are interested in the
cabled announcement that Ethel Clara
Leneve, the young woman who fed
to Canada with DR.. H. H. Crippen is
on her way to this country. Commits
sioner Williams declines to say any
thing which might be regarded as
prejudicing the case.
THE case will be investigated as
the facts warrant" he said.
If she is not considered a desirable
alien, the woman can easily be kept
out of the country despite the fact
that the English courts acquitted her
of being an accessory of DR.. Crippen.
If sentence of deportation is passed
upon her it will probably be on the
ground that she crossed the Atlantic
with DR.. Crippen to whom she was
not married

KNEW WHERE TO GO.
Tobe. Topeka Bulldog, Went to the
Doctor With Broken Leg.

Kansas City Star: lobe is a splen-
did bull terrier owned by Hal Hotch-
kiss of 412 Greenwood avenue, Topeka
Some time ago in carelessly alighting
from a motor car one of Tobe's front
legs was broken. He was taken i'm
mediately to DR.. Otto Kiene where the
injured member was set and held tight
by a plaster cast. lobe was permitted
to go his way and again fraternize
with other dogs. One of the other
dogs evidently looking upon lobe as an
old GRIP" started a rough house. lobe
came away the victor but in taking
stock it was found that his leg was
broken. Once more he was taken to
DR.. Kiene, who reset it and placed it
in another cast. Two days later lobe
had heated argument with another
dog. For the third time the leg was
broken.
The Hotchkiss home is fully a mile
from the Kiene residence. lobe did
not wait to be personally conducted to
the doctors. On three legs he beat it
across town to DR.. Kiene's. On the
front porch he sat and cried piteously
until the doctor heard him. Once
more the leg was mended, but Tobe Is
denied the companionship of other
dogs for awhile.

with the window lights of the coaches
broken, the frames shattered by bull
lets and the soldiers in a panic, the
train arrived at Bustillos, where the
coaches bearing the troops were left
on a sidetrack.
The railway officials, fearing trou-
Die further ahead, refused to take the
soldiers to their destination and at last

Sharpe, manager of the Southwestern
Cattle com pany of this city, who has
arrived here from Mexico. was a pas
senger on the Mexico Northwestern
train attacked by revolutionists Mon
day. Mr. Sharpe went to Mexico a
week ago and soon found himself in
the center of one of the disturbed dis
tricts. His story follows:
when the regular passenger train
carrying three coaches of soldiers,
bound for Guerrero, left Chihuahua
Monday morning, it was not believed
that it would encounter any serious
opposition. At San Andras. which is
about 40 miles west of Chihuahua. the
train was met with a hot rifle fire from
revolutionists, who were concealed be-

At the first volley, a lieutenant and

DreXeI Breaks Worlds Record
for Height in AerOplane.
Machine Would Go No Further
and BarOgraph Stopped.

Philadelphia, Nov PA. Armstrong
DrexeI broke all aeroplane altitude rec
ords here when he climbed above this
city until his Bleriot monoplane was
unable to make further progress in the
rarified atmosphere. The ink in the
needle of his Paragraph ran out at
$3.50 feet which was accepted as a new
worlds record by Clifford B. Harmon,
chairman of the National Association
of Aero Clubs of America, and James
King Duffy, the secretary of that body
The instrument is the same one that
Ralph tombstone carried when he made
a former record of 9,714 feet at Belmont
Park on October 81.
Mr. Drexel left the aviation field at
Point Breeze, in the extreme southern
part of the city, at 1928 o'clock. He
landed at Oreland. about 20 miles north
of the spot where he had started, at
4:46 o'clock, In his climb he had trav-
eled at least 90 miles to the northward,
for when he started to descend, after
trying for 10 minutes to force the ma
chine higher, he glided down for dis
lance which he estimated at about six
miles. So swiftly did the monoplane
descend that the aviator was nau-
seated. However. he reached an open
field and brought his machine to the
ground without injury. He at once
notified the officials at the aviation
field of his landing.
Clifford B. Harmon and Grahame-
White at once left for Oreland in an
automobile and brought the aviator
and the Paragraph, still under seal, to
this city.
Mr.. Drexel announced that he is go
ing to fly the machine back to the
aviation field. He was greatly d1sap-
pointed when he found that the baro-
graph had failed to record an even TO-
900 feet.
THE air was so light it was impos-
sib1e to make the machine ascend an
other foot" he said.
