Don Ramon Departs For Europe.

On the morning of April 11th, Don Ramon Corral, vice president of Mexico, started from the Buena- Vista Station in the City of Mexico, at 7 a. m. for Veracruz. The newspa pers had stated that he would leave on a special train at later hour, consequently the gen. eral public did not know that his special car would leave on the regular train.
 There was quite large crowd of good personal and political friends at the station in Mexico, to see Don Ramon depart, and some of them were deeply affected. Tears were seen in the eyes of two men that are high in the Country's affairs. As the hour was so early, 7 a. m., Don Porfirio was not at the station; neither was Minister Limantour there.
 The train pulled out of the station to the sounds of many vivas and good cheer. MT. Corral appeared to get more lively and more contented as we proceeded on the trip, and he seemed to be quite his old self again by the time that the train reached Veracruz, being more animated than he has been for the last six months.
 Upon arrival at Veracruz at 8 D. m., the railway set the private coach out at the pier from which the party all walked out to the steamer "Espagne" of the French line; and the Corral party went aboard. All of the Army and Naval officers were there in dress uniform. to greet Mir. Corral; and the band of the 16th Battalion discoursed music on the pier, which was crowd ed with large portion of the citi' zens of the port.
 The captain of the ship invited the gentlemen into the main cabin where champagne was produced and a good health and bon voyage drunk to Mir. Corral. Mrs. CorraI and the young ladies went ashore for drive by moonlight but MT Corral remained on board.
 Wednesday, April 18th, at Il a m., the steamer left the pier for Hay re, France. Every high officer who was in the port being there in full dress uniform, the band on the pier playing and the guns of the fortii cations booming a salute of 15 guns and Mir. Corral the first and only Vice. President of Mexico was off foI his voyage across the ocean to re cover his former health, the piel being again crowded with officer; army and navy, friends from the City of Mexico and a large crowd of the citizens of Veracruz to wisf him God speed.

WILSON MAKES
HARD ATTACKS
ON PRESIDENT
Says Taft Administration Is to BE
Held Responsible for Present
Business Conditions

Red Bank, N. j., Oct. l3.-Gov-
ernor Woodrow Wilson of New Jer-

dent Taft and Attorney General
Wickersham in a speech here. He
said that the fact that they had no
fixed purpose and changed their me-
thods over night was causing the
present business depression in this
country.
What is the matter with the
business of this country at the pres
ent time?" asked Governor Wilson.
Men continually say in my ear that
business is not in satisfactory
condition. They point out this un-
dertaking and that undertaking and
the other, that is running at half
force as il waiting for something.
You do not know what is going
to happen tomorrow because the
men who are in authority tell you
one thing today and another tomor-
row; because the president of the
United States, the attorney-general,
and all those associated with hin
give out one utterance one day and
then the next day take 1t back and
apologize for it.
Have you heard the president
speak of the execution of the anti
trust law? You have heard the at
torney-general quoted with regard
to that. Do you know what either OF
them is going to do? Does anybody
know? Do they themselves know
what they are going to do?

Walter Johnson was first heard
of outside of Idaho in 1907, when
he broke a worlds record by
pitching 81 successive innings
without being scored upon. He
was then also credited with 10
strike outs.
Joe Cantillon, manager of the
Washington club, secured the
Idaho phenom.
Since his advent in the Amer
lean league, Johnson has made
baseball history. In 1905 he shut
out New York three times in three
days, performance which stands
alone.
Last season he struck out 313
batters, breaking Waddell's big
league mark of sol. This year,
johnson, who had been working
for a nominal salary, demanded
1900 for this season. After
holding out for some time, Tom
Moves, it is said, signed him at
1000. That Johnson was worth

These things make Walter
Johnson, of the Washington, AM
erican league club, the pitching
marvel of the day.
Johnson is considered by many
the best pitcher In the world. II
has been said that with a first di-
vision team he would win about
40 and lose perhaps three games
in season.
But with Washington. a seventh
or eighth hole team, what chance
has such a pitcher to shine?
On July s, 1910, Johnson struck
out the first seven New York bat
tiers who faced him, and in three
innings struck out eight men.
In appearance Johnson Is tall
and shadowy enough to be called
skinny" but he is all bone and
sinew. When he pitches his fast
ball it goes to the batter looking
about as big as a. pea and with a
jump that makes 1t almost impos-
sible to hit.
Like Wagner, Lajoie, Cobb and
Collins, he is a splendid drawing
card, and it is perhaps for this
reason as much as for any other
that Tom Noyes, Washington
owner, was willing to pay - him
1000 this season. -,
Johnson's one weakness iii the
past has been wild pitches. Last
season he turned loose 81 the
catcher couldn't get hold off, He
is seldom hit hard. The average
number of hits made off his deliv-
cry last year was 6 17-42n aper
game, which, with a good team
back of him, would have WON 80
per cent of his games.
