The Washington times., 1910-10-26
Believed That Attempt to
Exile General Rivas Was
Thwarted.
FORCED TO RECALL
HIS POLICE CHIEF
Gomez Compelled to Reinstate
Him, Is General Belief in
Havana.

Il is believed here today that United
States Minister jackson blocked an at
tempt to exile General Rivas, chief Of
poles Of Havana, when he forced Pres
fdent Gomez TO recall Rivas from a
ship. on which he was about 70 embark
and reinstate him at the head of the
police force.
It is declared probable that the mys-
terfous mission on which Rivas was
sent, was. in reality, a ruse TO put him
IN temporary exile and eliminate him
from the elections.
There is strong opposition TO the re-
election Of Gomez, and II is said that
Rivas IS not favorable to him. With
his control Of the police. Rivas might
have interfered with the plans OF
Gomez. It is said, and students OF Cuban
politics say that mis- exile would have
been most desirable to the Gomez party.
The American minister TO Cuba has
more than ordinary diplomatic powers.
The United States guarantees law and
order IN Cuba, and II is declared that
Jackson would have been within his
rights II he had forced Gomez to aban-
don an effort to exile Rivas.
The practice Of dispOSing Of undesir-
able men, with strong political infu-
ynce, ySending them on DIPLOMATS
missions IS familiar practice in
SDanish-American countries IL is be-
heved here that Jackson has determined
that II shall not be resorted to any
more In Cuba.
The State Department officials declare
that they have received no report of
the incident, but the news dispatches
are attracting much attention in d.
,plomatic circles.

DOOMED TO DEATH
BECAUSE Of EGG
Time Required for Digestion
Deciding Question in
Murder Case.

MADISON. Wis, Oct. 26.-How much
time does 1t take the human stomach to
digest an egg?
This Is the question the Wisconsin
supreme court was called upon to de-
eide. Ward Z. Hedger was sentenced to
life term in the State prison for WIFE,
murder last spring, and this question
was the essential feature Of the case Of
the State Hedger was admitted bv the
defense TO have been in his home at a
certain hour. The time at which his
wife ate breakfast was fixed, also.
According TO experts. the egg was not
an hour on the way 10 digestion when
the woman died. This would bring her
murder within the time that Hedger was
IN the house.
The supreme court refused to prant a
new trial, though the entire case against
Hedger hinged on circumstantial evil
dence with the egg as the CHIEF feature
in the evidence.

In a letter to a friend, Mrs. Erwin

Ordway to Portland, Oregon, tells of
the coast country as follows:
Ibid your cousin tell you that we
had been out to Gresham to see them?
We enjoyed our visit very much cs-
peciallv |, for it was the only chance
I've had as yet to see what farm life
is like in Oregon. They have ii very
pleasant home just an hours ride by
the electric cars from Portland and
they like living here 81 much better
than in Colorado that its not likely
you'll ever see them again unless you
come out, too. Not that farm ing is
more profitable, for it isn't: but liz,
is easier and more pleasant. They cu-
joy the climate. the fruit. fish ahG
flowers. Such lovely rawberrie>.

But let me tell you on the side. fruit
OF all kinds is most awful expansive
here in the city. This may be the
land OF apples. grapes and cherries,
but you sure have to pay the prize
Apples 20 to 10 cents Il dozen: oranges
same aS there: canned fruit little
cheaper. But the apples are some
thing luscious and also profitable TO
| the grower. There Is not much fruit
raised near Portland. but Hood River
growers are making fortunes OH them
One thing that would pay here is
poultry: eggs are 80 cents Il dozen and
chickens p cents Il pound; turkeys 81
Meat and other provisions are
cheaper than there and we cook with
gas and heat with wood in the furnace
| We intend To remain in Portland
this winter, and not 20 up to our farm
in Washington till spring. So far
the climate has hardly lived up to its
reputation for moisture. Our FIRST
week or two, it rained. yes, every day.

OF December it has been clear and
cold. exceptionally 50. or course, the
