New York, Feb. S.-Following the
wedding of Miss Gould and Lord De-
Cies, the report was circulated today
that George Gould, father of the bride,
was planning to get out of the rail-
roads in which the Gould's interests
are chiefly vested and spend most Of
his time abroad. The rumor was
given much credence because of the
fact that just before announcement of
the engagement of Lord DeCies and
Miss Vivien Gould, Wall Street heard
that Mr.. Gould would soon retire
from the Missouri Pacific railroad of
which he has been the active head
since 1893. Although a report of
Mr.. Gould denies that the railroad
magnate intends to give up business
for thesHsoeiety of Europe it was
stated in other quarters that Mr.
Gould desired to relieve himself Of
the more burdensome Gould inte.'
ests and spend his time in Europe.

law closed tigher than ever around
Jaurez today. 1 was Obliged by SEN
tinels to make long detours in order
to arrive at Col. Tambourels quar-
tiers where i went seeking permit
to pass the Federal picket. No sat
isfaction was obtained from him. I'M
responsible sentinels kept me on a
tortuous way to the Jefe's office but
he gave me the same response. While
the politeness that marks Mexican
officials was melted to me, there was
considerable brusqueness and the at
nosphere was decidedly chilly to an
American. OF course no information
was obtainable from the Federal Of
ficials and it was made evident that
newspaper men were not desired.
1t seems quite verified now that
Jaurez Is we'll mined. was given
the details today by an insurrectO of
where these mines were located, and
in walking by the places mentioned
there were indications of recent dig
ging in the road where my informa-
ton was that they had dynamite
mines which are said to be electrically
connected with some official head
quarters.
To an outsider it appears as If
there was a probability of something
of clash between the independent
leaders of the various insurrecto
forces. II this is permitted it will,
be naturally but short time before
the whole thing peters out, but Il
Madero does come to the front it
would verify the situation.
From insurrecto forces I learned
that there is danger of a breech be-
tween General Blanco and Orozco
and that other jealousies are pos
sible. If this is true the only hope
the insurrectos have is taking Jaurez
which will cement the factions. If
this is not accomplished very soon
there is good reasons to predict that
what there is of the revolution will
die of itself after an annoying and
costly succession of continued guer-
lila attacks.
