NEPOT|sM IS COMPLAINED OF IN
THE NEW CABINET OF MEXICO

peaceful a Sunday as the city ever
knew
Band concerts drew crowds. to the
public parks, and the theaters AMI
other amusement places were filed,
giving little indication that one of the
most remarkable revolutions in Mex
lean history has been in progress.
The new cabinet members were well
coined by a crowd which packed the
railroad station and overfiowed into
the streets. One of the first to greet
the travellers was Alfredo Robes Do
minguez, Maderista peace commission
forces in this zone. After exchanging
personal greetings, he delivered brief
address of welcome.
Cabinet Criticised.
Already the new cabinet is being
subjected to criticism because Of ne
potism. Fly-by-night sheets, with
which the capital has been flooded
within the last few days point out
the family" nature Of the body and
ask whether the country has been
saved from one reign of nepotism only
to be delivered over to another.
The criticism. presented with much fer
vor is based upon the relation between
the Gomez brothers, the minister of
instruction. and the minister of gober-
nacion, who arrived last night, and
between Francisco I. Madero and Ra-
fael Hernandez, minister of justice.
the latter being a cousin Of Madero.

cation of publishers in the capital in

TRUSKETT IS GUILTY.
Jury Returns Verdict of Murder in the
Second Degree.

independence, Kan, March 30.-A. A.
Truskett, 20 years old, wealthy busi-
ness man Of Caney, Kan, was yester-
day found guilty of numbering J. D. S.
Neeley, a millionaire oil man of Lima,
o. The jury had been out since 6
o'clock Tuesday night and returned its
verdict of murder in the second degree
at 8 O'Clock last night.
Immediately after the verdict hal
been returned, attorneys for Truskett
made a motion to admit Truskett 10
bail pending the filing of an applica-
ton for a new trial. Truskett was
place1 in the custody of the sheriff and
arguments on the motion began.
Truskett shot and killed Neeley in
the lobby of the Palace hotel at Caney
on January II. There were no witnesses
t the shooting. Neeley was president
which had sued to have declared Illegal
a valuable oil lease owned by Truskett.
Witnesses testified Truskett's mind had
been affected by worry over the suit.
The plea was set up that Truskett was
insane when he killed the Lima man.
The morning Truskett killed Nicely
the two men had gone to an isolated
room together. Two shots were heard
and Nicely was found shot through the
heart.
Truskett gave himself up at once to
the city marshal and was then taken
He said that he had shot in self-de-
fense. The coroner's jury learned that
Neely did not have a revolver, but
Truskett said he believed Nicely made
motion as if to shoot. and that he
shot for that reason. Both men were
rich Neely's home was in Lima, o.
and he had come to Kansas on a regu-
lar trip of inspection to see his OF
properties. Nicely was SIS years ole
and Truskett 20.
The two men had Quarreled abou
the possession of an oil lease. The
| land in question was four miles south
of Caney, and was owned by Robert F
Goodman, a minor Indian. A guar
dian leased the property to Hugh
Bronson, an oil man, who sold tbs
lease to three other Caney men fol

DUST STORM DISASTROUS
Damaged or Destroyed Thousands OF
Acres of Wheat.

Wakeeney Kan, March 3O.-Thou-
sands of acres of wheat has been to-
tally destroyed In the western Kansas
wheat belt as a result of the heavy
dust storm of last Sunday afternoon
and night. The principal damage was
to the wheat fields in the districts be-
tween Oakley and Wakeeney. In this
territory dust drifted on the roads in
many places to a depth of four feet
and entire wheat fields were blown out
or entirely covered with a heavy layer
of loose dirt
In the eastern sections of Ness and
Trego counties it is this week claimed
that there will be half wheat crop.
The crop in Lane, Scott Logan and
Cove counties is considered almost an
entire failure. Until a week ago the
crop conditions in this territory were
none too bright. Then followed the
binding dust storm of last Sunday,
when the wind attained a velocity OF
almost so miles an hour. Entire wheat
fields, many of which promised half a
crop, were almost or totally destroyed.

dent Of the National League for the
Promotion of Purity, to speak in All

them to speak,

HIS OWN HANGING.
Condemned Man Declines Aid Until
Hands Are Strapped.

Pottsville, Pa, March 30.-A remark
able display of nerve was made in the
county Jail yard here today by Joseph
Christock who was hanged for the mur-
der last fall of Mrs. Ann Richards.
Declining the proffered assistance of a
priest and deputy sheriff. the man
walked smilingly from his cell to the
foot of the gallows and ran lightly up
the steps.
1t was a public hanging and before
him stood 1900 persons to whom he
waved his hand. Then he reached up,
grasped the moose and placed it around
his neck, put his arms by his side to be
strapped and smilingly said:
Good bye, ALL" The trap fell and he
was dead in twelve minutes.
Before going to the gallows Christock
made a confession, declaring he had
shot the woman when he was detected
by her attempting to mistreat her
daughter. He told of numerous high
way robberies and burglaries he had
committed in the neighborhood and
wound up his confession by saying he
deserved to be hanged for his crimes.
He jozed of death to the very end.

CUTS HIS THROAT.
Hugh Roberts, Foreman in Santa
Fe Shops, Suicide.
Almost Sewers His Head With a
Razor.

Hugh Roberts, foreman of the bolt
shed of the store department of the
Santa Fe shops, committed suicide at
2 O'Clock this afternoon but cutting
his throat with a razor. He cut him
self SO deeply that when friends found
him lying across some tools in his lit
tie office only a portion of his neck
held on his head.
No cause for the deed can be deter
mined. DR.. H. III. Keith, county cor
oner, rushed to the scene, but could
find no evidence on the intent of the
man.
He was seen by many friends this
morning and appeared to be good
natured. He was 80 years old and
came to Topeka two years ago froIn
Las Vegas. N. M. He is a single man
and lived at SIS East Fourth street.
The body was found by shopmen
near the freight car shops, more than
a mile from the main shop district
DR.. Keith said this afternoon it was
one of the most horrible suicides he
had ever seen-the head was almost
severed from the body.
He has no close friends who can give
any reason for the act.

A FAILURE OF PEACE.
Probably to Be Followed by At
tack on the City.
InSurreCtOS Are Anxious to Re-
turn to Their Farms.

Ell Paso, March 3O.-All available
insurrectos in the field in nothern
Mexico are being concentrated west of
Chihuahua, according to news re-
ceived here. 1t is believed by insur-
recto sympathizers that the purpose
of this move is to allow those who
have fought for the insurrecto cause
to have some part in the consideration
of peace terms. That there mas been
no recent fighting around Chihuahua
is regarded as indicating that the men
in the field believe the selection of the
new cabinet an evidence of good faith
upon the part of the government pre-
paratory to peace negotiations.
However, the concentration of Ma
derO's forces near Chihuahua would
make possible an immediate movement
against that city should negotiations
fail.
Many of the insurrectos are small
farmers; they have been in the field
for months and have suffered many
hardships. AS the time for planting
their crops is now at hand it is
thought here that they will be willing
to return to their farms, and await the
development of reforms if assured by
the cabinet that the reforms a1eady
outlined will be enacted. They will
demand, however, that they retain
their arms, that all prisoners taken
since the outbreak of the insurrection
be released and that the families of
those who have fallen in the insur-
recto ranks be given the same COM
pensations awarded to families of the
federal dead.
La Barra Remains Silent.

WOULD CLOSE MILLS.
Wool Manufacturer Discusses Result
of Tariff Reduction.

San Francisco. March 30.-WiIliam
M. Wood, president of the American
Woolen company, defended the pres
ent tariff on wool in an interview here.
1.-The reduction of schedule K to the
free trade basis he said, would close
down the wooden mills and bring about
the same condition of affairs in the
textile industry as was created under
the Wilson tariff. 1 do not believe the
Democratic party will enact laws to
disturb the labor in this great in
dustry.''
Mr.. Wood spoke of the large num-
ber of people dependent upon the
wooden mills of America. The mills
numbered, he said, about 1900. He
added: MANY people have an idea
that, owing to special energy and skill
of the American working man, this
industry could stand free trade
basis. This was tried under the Will
son bill with disastrous results I be-
lieve the Democratic party will rise to
the occasion and preserve this great
industry"
