THREATENS TO STAY zAPATA
Madero Bitterly D%enounces Band
Who PiIIaged and Burned cuatla
and May Resort to Harshness.

Mexico City.-With the same en-
thusiasm that characterized his first
entry into the capital last week,
Francisco l. Madero was welcomed
here by an immense throng Friday
On his return from a five days trip
through southern Mexico.
With Madero was Ambrosio Figue-
roa, who once commanded 10000
men composing the insurrecto army
of the south, and whose loyalty to
Madero admittedly has been one of
the reasons for the rapid triumph of
the revolution.
Madero returned satisfied that the
inhabitants of the south will support
him and that normal conditions
have been resumed in that section.
Only one person and one place are
exceptions to complete peace. The
person is Emilio Zapata, an enemy
of Figueroa, under whose command
he was supposed to have acted, and
the place is Cuernavaca, where Ia
pata's men were quartered.
Zapata is characterized by the
rebel leader as a bandit and unless
he disbands his men at once, Ma
dero threatens to send troops against
him and Zapata will in that event
undoubtedly be executed when cap
tured.

BANDIT LEAVES CRIMSON TRAIL
Has Defied All Attempts to Capture
Him, Having Killed Three and
Wounded Four.

Idaho Falls, Idaho.-Three killed.
four wounded is supposed to be the
sanguinary toll eXacted by Hugh
Whitney, the bandit, in his sensa.
tlonal flight which has taken him
from Monida, Mont, to a point in the
hill country east of Idaho Falls. The
robber has left a crimson trail be.
hind him and has defed all attempts
at capture.
The latest victim. according to an
unconffrmed report, is a boy who was
ruthlessly slain SO that the bandit
might obtain food and a fresh horse.
This makes three killed, if the report
be true that Whitney slew his pal.
The bandit on Monday shot Ruben
Scott, who volunteered to guard the
Snake river bridge at Menan, and
Deputy Sheriff Obey of Idaho Falls.

shake hands, but many slipped out of
the line and sought the shaded walks,
the chairs waiting on the grass, or
wandered at will through tho lower
floors OF the mansion. The presents,
that numbered in the hundreds and
whose money value ran high into the
thousands. attracted many. while 9TH

the polished floor echoed to the tread

the receiving line all evening. She
wore a gown of white satin. brocaded
with silver flowers with a court train.

So. Buechler said at the time that he
thought the rate was ~exorbitant, but
the driver told him that was the price.
Samuel J. Leber. counsel for Winant,
said hat the ordinance did not relate
to automobiles, but 10 vehicles drawn
by horses. He also declared that his
client was entitled to charge for the
trouble he had in going to his garage
for the machine and making the trip,
which also necessitated him to turn
away other trade.
James W. Ward, a license Inspector,
testified that the rate charged by
Winant was exorbitant. He declared
that the most the driver should have
| charged was $1.25. On account OF
several objections raised by counsel,

take with him two large boxes, one
filled with ranges and the other with
TOYS, Immediately after his arrival he
would engage the finest rig in the place
to take him around the country. Then
