COMMONS RAIDED BY WOMEN
Militant Suffragettes Storm British
Parliament and 116 Are Arrested
After Lively Fight.

London.-One hundred and sixteen
of the 1000 militant suffragettes who
marched on the parliament building
were arrested after lively fight with
the police.
Led by Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst,
the women made determined. at
tempt to force the police Gordon
about the house of commons and,
reaching Premier Asquith, to insist
upon the introduction of a woman's
suffrage bill.
The women made every effort with
in their power to break the lines,
bringing into play some rare military
strategy and football tactics. Fight
ers in the front ranks retired many
times to make way for fresh reserves,
but the police were too strongly in
trenched. Orders had been given the
officers to make as few arrests as
possible. but it soon became neces-
sary to jail as many of the women as
could be captured. After Parliament
Square had been cleared the three
leaders of the demonstration, led by
Mrs. Pankhurst, were permitted to en-
ter the lobby of the house of COM
mons. where they were met by Mr.
Asquith's secretary and informed that
the premier would not see them and
said that there was no chance for
suffrage bill at the present session.

WOODEN DUTY LEAK IMMENSE
1T is ASSERTED FRAUDS WILL
EXCEED $10,0oo,oo0.
Are Far Greater Than Those in
Sugar SWindIe.

New York. Assistant United
States Attorney Whitney declares
that the wooden duties frauds against
which Collector William Loeb, Jr.,
has begun a campaign will prove the
most stupendous swindle yet disclosed
at this port since the government be-
gan it's investigation into customs
leaks.
1t is said that the losses in duties
claimed by the government will
amount to upward of $10,000,000.
In the sugar cases, which previous
ly held first place in the amount of
money involved, the full extent of the
frauds was never ascertained, but the
government obtained restitution of
more than 100000 from the import
ers.
The government seeks to recover
all the money claimed to be lost in
the last five years by alleged false in
voices for importations made by Jo-
seph Brooks & Co., manufacturers of
woolens, worsteds and Innings, of
Bradford, England, and this city. As
sistant Attorney Whitney said:
'This is the biggest case Of the
kind the government has ever had.
The frauds involve several wooden
manufacturing firms in England. The
total amount of the duties which the
government has lost through these i'm
portation frauds is much greater than
in the sugar underweighiug cases."

AVIATOR IS KILLED
RALPH TOMBSTONE MEETS HOR-
RIBLE DEATH IN FLIGHT
AT DENVER, COL.
EVERY BONE IN BODY BROKEN
AeropIane Wing CrumpIes at Height
of 800 Feet and Altman Is Dashed
to Ground in Presence of Thou
sands-strugaled to Save Life.

Denver, Col.-From ten to fifteen
thousand persons saw Ralph John
stone, the holder of the worlds avia-
ton altitude record, plunge in his
Wright biplane, at Overland Park
Thursday, from a height of 800 feet
to terrible death, nearly every bone
In his body being fractured.
His tragic flight was not without
thrilling struggle with the grim mes
senger, for when the daring bird
man realized that the earthward dive
might mean the loss of his life, he
tried to climb swiftly to the top of
his aeroplane, lest the heavy machin-
cry crush out his life
The tragedy was apparently due in
great measure to an accident on Tues
day, when on alighting in front of the
grand stand, a screw gave way and
his biplane crashed into fence and
stopped with a crushed wing. It was
this wing, probably not properly re-
paired, that gave way and sent the
machine and it's driver to the ground.
tombstone got away perfectly when
he started his last flight. Once or
twice he circled above the admiring
throng, then rose to a height of 900
feet. tombstone gave some exhibitions
of aerial rough riding, making his
plane dip and rise, dip and rise, as
though it were borne by some huge,
invisible wave.
After seventeen minutes of flight,
tombstone decided to come down. He
was making fancy descent, known
to aviators as the aerial spin. When
at a distance of about 500 feet from
the ground his machine was noticed
to wobble several times. Suddenly
it swerved and the right wing crum-
pied. The part that had been in
iured gave way entirely and like
huge bird crippled by a shot, it be-
gan to flutter to the ground. Ap-
parently tombstone realized instantly
that death was reaching out for him,
for he hurled off his heavy headgear
Der to the top of the aeroplane, evil
IDENTIFY trying to escape being caught
under the heavy machinery.
The machine fell outside Overland
Park at the corner of Iowa and South
Delaware streets, where a crowd had
gathered on a knoll overlooking the
park All scampered to safety save
one man, who seemed not to realize
the weight of the machine that was
coming down upon him, but stood with
uplifted arms as if to catch the bird
like monster. Suddenly he darted
from under and tombstone crashed to
the ground, the machinery all above
him, parts of it, however, driven clear
through his body, in which no bone
remained unbroken.

SPIRIT OF ROMANCE.

To the spirit of chivalry and love
of adventure that characterized the
wonderful days of long ago the aver
age writer turns for his romantic tales
of love and war, but it seems some
how as though enough of romance
can be found in the world at every
period Of It's existence, even in its
present most practical and, perhaps,
its most unpoetical stage, to make
volumes of absorbing interest, but the
mystery of the past appeals to the
ordinary mind with more persistence
than the wonders of the present; per-
haps, because the intervening periods
of time have endowed the occurrences
of other days with something Of the
charm of their own uncertainty. The
influence of poetry, Of music, of art,
of the drama, of literature, helps to
mold a world of loneliness, and con-
tributes in no small way to the hap
piness Of living, says the Charleston
News and Courier Into each profess
sion some of the spirit Of romance
has crept, much of which has been
handed down from generation to gen.
GRAFTON as a priceless heritage. The
artistic temperament best understands
the making of those roosevelt 70
mances which breathe their fragrance
far and wide and make the world a
better place in which to live, but even
those of us who are not blessed with
poetic natures cannot, indeed must
not, fail to trace along our daily
paths the romance of the world itself
with all its throbbing beauty-a ro-
nance of life and color, Of effort and
achievement, and above all of Joy and
happiness.

REVOLT IN MEXICO
FORTY ARE KILLED IN BATTLE
AGAINST DlAZ'S SOL
DIERS.
WOMAN STAYS POLICE CHIEF
Pueblo, Seething With Rebellion, Is
Scene of the Clash-Francisco Ma
dero, Head of Revolutionary Party,
Claims the Presidency.

Mexico City, Mex. - Revolution
broke out Friday in the city of
Pueblo between the anti-re-electioniS
and the federal forces and it is re-
ported that 40 persons were killed and
three wounded. The federal soldiers
have gotten the upper hand of the af-
fair.
A woman killed the chief of police
and another wounded a major Of in
fantry.
Many arrests of supporters of Fran
cisco l. Madero, the revolutionary
leader, are being made all over Mex
leo.
Eleven Mexicans were arrested at
Buena Vista and lodged in Jail at
Cananea charged with attempting to
foment revolution.
At Orizaba numerous arrests were
made and the police captured large
quantity of arms and ammunition.
Details of the anti-Diaz conspiracy
have come to light. The conspirators
had extended their operations to the
San Luis Potosi, Nuevo Leon, Pueblo,
Jalisco, Guanajuata, Yucatan and
Zacatecas. Circulars sent out by
Madero or his agents from San An
tonic, Tex, outline his campaign and
announce Madero as constitutional
president of Mexico. The manifesto
reads:
'I, Francisco l. Madero, will place
myself at the head of a revolutionary
party against the government of
Mexico. Between the goth and 30th
of November I shall lead my followers
against the government of Mexico"
Of the men arrested here for com.
plicity in the conspiracy one, Cosie
Robelo carried a commission from
Madero naming him as governor of
the state of Hidalgo.
No anti-American talk is being
heard now.
''It is true a conspiracy against the
administration has been unearthed,
but it is mistake to suppose that
the participants, who have been ar
rested are of any Importance"
So said one of the highest officials
of the government The official,
whose name is withheld, continued:
"The men under arrest are petty
agitators and malcontentS, who have
affiliated themselves with every group
which in the last year or SO has or
ganized opposition to President Diaz's
administration. These men were first
Reyists, then Democrats, then anti-re-
electionists; more recently they have
been supporters of Francisco I. Ma
dero, who is suspected of supplying
them with money.
"They are incapable and have no
prestige or any quality necessary to
successful leadership. The present
conspiracy had ramifications. The po-
lice seized arms and ammunition worth
perhaps $4,000 or $4,000 in this city,
at Pachuca and elsewhere"
Francisco Madero was a candidate
against Diaz at the late presidential
election in Mexico. Madero was ar
rested then for political offense"
and jailed. He was released last
month on condition that he leave
Mexico. He hurried to Texas.

at Progress.

Panama.-President Taft, wearing
white flannel suit and flap.
ping Panama hat, spent several hours
watching the work on the famous
Gatun dam and was Informed that the
canal would be completed December
1, 1913.
The official date of the opening 70
mains January 1, 1915, Lieutenant
Colonel Goethals desiring one year
in which to train the canal tenders
and to get the machinery working
smoothly. Ships meantime will be
granted the privilege of the canal,
but at their own risk of delay Incl
dent to inexperienced operation.
In addition, it was announced by
the colonel that the report that Pres
ident Taft's visit was the forerunner
of a request of another $1OO,O00.00O
from congress was unfounded. The
canal will be completed in 1913. he
said, within the $375, 100000 already
authorized.
Colonel Goethals has recommended
to President Taft that the canal be
fortified by the military government
of the Canal zone, the army and
navy to be represented on the forti-
tications board, each branch of the
service to have control of matter APP
pertaining to it.
The president was pleased at tho
outlook for the early completion of
the great work, and congratulated
Colonel Goethals. He expressed
amazement at the amount of work
accomplished since his visit to the
isthmus in February, 1909.
President Taft is gratified over the
results Of his three days inspection.
Wednesday he went deep down in the
Culebra cut, giving especial attention
to this, the most difficult part of the
construction.
The president heard delegations OF
mechanics and laborers, who are ask,
ing increased wages based on in.
creases in the United States.
Conditions here differ from those in
the United States, as government com.
missary has been successful in pre-
venting the increased cost in living
that has been general elsewhere. II
is doubtful that larger wages will be
paid in the zone.
