Control"

NEW YORK. April 1O.-Displaying
two black balls, the usual not under
control signal. the steamer Princess
Irene today safely reached and passed
through the harbor entrance, which she
missed In the fog last Thursday morn
ing, when she buried her nose in the
Fire Island sandspit. where she was
fated to be held a prisoner for the bet
ter part of four days.
Except for a broken rudder post, the
Irene, was believed to be none the worse
for her Imprisonment off the Lone Hill
i~ife-saving station, from which she was
so fortunately released yesterday after
noon, after her 1,720 passengers had
been taken off and landed Saturday
morning.
Because of the arrangement of her
steering mechanism, however, the big
liner was not privileged to come in un-
der her own steam. She was surround
ed by a fleet of tugs. which had escort
ed her from Fire Island waters to en-
anchorage outside the bar late last
night, and which at SIS o'clock this
morning took up the slack of their
hawsers and resumed the work of get
ting the liner into port.
At her dock she will be examined by
divers and then sent to Newport News
for examination in dry dock. The
greater part of the cargo is still on
board and will be discharged al Hobo
ken as soon as possible.

Senator Burton Makes An
nouncement Regarding Story
of Secret Treaty.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-President

the latest Japanese wal scare story
Incidentally a member Of the Senate
committee on foreign relations revealed
some of the eason which h Presi-
lent has given that committee and the
House committee On foreign affairs for
the mobilization of troops on the Texas
border.
Through Senator Burton, Of Ohio, the
President made an emphatic denial OF
the report from Mexico City that a pro-
posed treaty between Japan and Mex
leo caused the movement of troops to
Texas.
"The President authorized me-" said
Senator Burton, ito deny In most en-
phatic terms the story from Mexico
City about a secret treaty between
Mexico INC Japan. There is not a word
of truth in It."
Senator Bacon, OF Georgia, ranking
minority member of the foreign rela-
tons committee. after a talk with the
President, declared that Mr.. Taft was
surprised n indignant at the reports
duplicating Japan and Mexico.
you can put the whole story down
as absurd" said Senator Bacon. THE
President has talked to me and to
other members OF the committee and
explained the reason for sending the
troops South. There was danger of
widespread revolution and perhaps
anarchy in Mexico. The President act
ed quickly and decisively. He believed
that the army should be on the border
ready for any contingency when con-
gress met"

The couple had been engaged until a

called one evening.
Nothing the young mai said or did
had any effect on Marie and she reso-
lutely refused to see him any more or
have anything to do with him.
He logged her about wherever she
went. He would meet her coming out
of the house and plead with her. He
pleaded, cajoled and finally threatened,
accusing her of unfaithfulness, saying
that If he could not have her no one
else would.

This morning as she stepped out OF
the house on the way to work he again
approached her and pleaded with her
to relent. Receiving no reply he
grasped her by the arm and before she
could defend herself or utter a sound
he had made an ugly cash along the
I side of her face. Only her throwing
her head back saved her life, as the
thrust had evidently been intended for
her throat.
The widest excitement prevailed in
the neighborhood, which is a thickly
populated one. Miss Fernicola screamed

westward was cut short at an early
hour today when they were sent to the
House of Detention by patrolmen Of
the First precinct police station.
The boys had met by appointment at
the Market street station of the Penn
sylvania depot and were to embark
westward, where they would be able
to gain fame. They admit that their
minds had been influenced into taking
this step through reading dime novels
and visiting the picture shows. The
entire capital of the future greats
was eighty-two cents.
The boys were at their meeting-place
early and had procured a timetable
Their disappointment first came when
they found that the freight trains were
not on the schedule. They inquired of
several of the yard-men if any freights
stopped at this station, and in a bust
ness-like manner explained that they
we're benz on going to some Western
point, where things were brighter"
The lads were supplied with clean
handkerchiefs and one had a red ban
dana. This was fastened about his
throat in true Western style. He was
proud Of the loud color and exclaimed
to his friends. Il CUES they will re-
ceive me with open arms when they
learn that l have been reading the up
to-date styles of the West" Their first
stopping place was to be Pittsburg.
Roundsman Dauth, Patrolrnen Heller,
Kerrigan, O'Connor and Skillman sur
rounded the boys and listened to their
tale. They were all sent to the First
Precinct and then taken TO the House
of Detention. Today the parents will
all be summoned and given the GUS
