into it, otherwise connection will he
made with the swamp across the way.

HOUSES BURGLARIzfD
Homes Of Rev. MortenSon
and G. F. kirscher En-
tered and Robbed

A couple burglaries came to light
Monday and yesterday mornings, when
members of the housheholds returned
home after an absence of from one to
a number of days, and the authorities
have good clues as to the culprits. In
fact much of the booty had been
located by the sheriff before he had
received notice that any burglaries
had occurred, and could have had the
three suspected Of the deeds under
arrest Monday had he been appraised
of the robberies on that day.
While Rev. and Mrs. Nj. g. Morten-
son were to Burt1u Sunday and after
Elmer Barg, who is making his home
there, had gone to church shortly be-
fore 8 a.. M, the Mortenson home on
First street northeast was entered and
ransacked, new black suit valued at
$S5, a razor. razor strops, set of silver
spoons and a box containing gold gilt
forks being taken. The latter was
given to Dana Brown by a sandy haired
man who had obtained the p:ice Of a
meal from him, explaining his
possession of the forks by stating that
he had won them at a rattle. The
box bore the name Of Rev. Mortenson
and had. been returned to him.
Entrance had been gained through the
front door though it had been
locked by Mr.. Barg.
Although evidently having been
committed between Saturday morning
and Sunday night according to the
manner in which different articles
were strewn about the house, the
burglary at the e. F. Kirscher home
did not come to light until the return
of Mrs. Kirscher yesterday morning
from a week S automobile trip to Le.
Mars, Iowa. She at once noticed the
absence of number of different
articles and more thorough investiga-
tion showed that lady's gold watch,
Waltham movement, lot Of silver
ware, including two or three dozen
knives and forks, an oxidized brass
ink stand, and number of other
articles, he overlooking, however, a
diamond and evidently dropping a
bando valued at $685.. The burglar
also took a new coat of Mr.. Kircsher's
leaving nice greasy coat in exchange.
The window had been left open
during the day Saturday and Sunday,
and entrance might have been gained
by removing the screen or through
the back or side dour.
A Mr.. Zoos, who is employed at the
Hudson farm at Belle Prairie, stated
to Sheriff Armstrong Monday that
three men had approached him at q.
West side resort Sunday and had dis
posed of some silver ware to him for
81. These men proved to be the sandy
haired fellow. stranger, who Of late
had been working on one of the S.
Trebby ice wagons and another
stranger who for short time has been
employed oE the Dana Brown dray
line. The first two have since de.
parted, the ice-man going to Brainerd.
Some Of the stolen articles were dis
posed of to A. Walbridge and a
suspicious character was Sunday
evening seen to exhibit ladies gold
watch, but did not offer it for sale.
The three suspects seemed to have
known each other quite we'll, and the
drayman has a brown suit which he
claims was given him by the sandy
haired fellow.

RUCKER, MISSOURI,
PRESENTS POPULAR
VOTE ELECTION BILL
Provides for Election of Uni
ted States Senators by Di-
rect Ballot of People, Will
Push Bill

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The Demo-
Gratis of the house of representatives will
today make good one of the cardinal
principles of the party by passing joint
resolution for the popular election of
United States senators. The vote win be
taken this afternoon about o'clock and
the measure will receive the undivided
support of the Democrats. A number of
Republican progressives will also sup
port it.
The resolution as it was presented to
the house today by Mr.. Rucker, of Mis-
souri,, is in substantially the same form
that it was reported by the senate judi
larry committee This means that the
resolution in no ways interferes with or
abridges the right of each state to fix
the time and prescribe the rules and
manner for holding elections of senator's
1t is regarded as certain that the sem
ate will also adopt the resolution for
popular elections after which the ques-
ton will be presented to the states for
ratification it, involving an amendment to
the constitution.
Chairman Fuckers committee voted
yesterday to report the popular elections
bill favorably, as it did also the bill pro-
yidfng for anti-eection publicity of cam
paign contributions.
Passage of the former bill in time today
was meant that the latter measure also
would be put upon its passage. The
house leaders did not anticipate much
opposition to the party measures and no
attempt was looked for from any Demo-
crat to impede the rapid program out
lined by the ways and means committee.
This committee has approved both bills
and wants them out of the way Of the
Canadian reciprocity bill, which will be
called up tomorrow.
When the senate resumed business to-
day after a two days recess there was
little before it. Senator Rayner was ex-
pected to address the upper house on the
Mexican situation. After a brief session
adjournment was looked for until Mon
day.

MADERO DECLINES
OFFER FOR PEACE;
WILL FIGHT TO END
Declares He viii Sacrifice All
He Has That Revolt May
Bring Complete Charge in
Mexican Politics
~ Assooiated Press.l

CHIHUAHUA, Mexico. Apri 1s. via
Laredo. Tex, April 13.-Another peace
project failed today when FREDERICK
Moye and Dr. F. r. zyferts returned in
automobiles from Madero's camp near
Busullos. 90 miles west of here. and
reported their mission had been with
out definite result. Francisco I. Made
no, the insurrecto leader refused to
conclude peace terms offered which he
regarded as nothing more than the
promise already made by President Diaz.
Senior Madero reiterated his statement
given in a recent Interview. saying his
position was clear and capable of but a
single Interpretation, viz:
That he would sacrifice himself and
all he had, If necessary, to the end that
the insuFrection bring about a complete
change of politics in -1exico.
Previous to the peace mission. Senior
Moye went to Mexico city and there
among them, ii is said Minister Ii
mantour His visit to Mexico city en-
couraged him to make the trip to Ma
dero's camp. Madero. himself. in his
march to the town of Modera, halted to
receive the envoys.
The peace talk took place in the mar
BILE hall of a great house which is the
seat of an extensive hacienda
Convince that Madero was firm in
his attitude, the party returned to Chi
huahua.
In one remark of Senior Madero. the
ENJOYS professed to see hope. Just be-
fore they left the leader said:
81 am extremely anxious to see my
father. and learn what promises he Sc
cured from Minister Limantour. If he
could safely reach me, would be glad"
Senior Madero, however, did not say
he believed his father had information
which might lead to peace, but the en-
voys assert a meeting of a father and
son seems now the only prospect of an
early restoration of peace.
Bandits not connected with the insur-
rectos began to operate near this city
today. A gang held up a train of the
Chihuahua Mining company. an Ameri-
can concern and took IS 900 in gold
