RUDE AWAKENING FOR
2 FORTUNE HUNTERS
(SpeciaI TO The Tribune.)

Spokane, Wash, March 20.-This is
something about a romance of the
Spokane county poor farm that did
not end in the regular story book
fashion. Mary A. Mclaughlin, 4S
years of age, and John McNabb, 40,
who eloped to the province of British
Columbia a year ago, when Robert
w. Butler, county auditor, had refused
to issue a license, have returned.
After the wedding the bride dreamed
of the many fancies she could crafty
with her husbands fortune of $50,900,
while McNabb figured that his wife's
nestegg of $4,000 would mean year
or two of ease. One day there was
a rude awakening-they had less than
81 between them. Straightway they
came to Spokane and lived for time
on the fat of the land. House owners
and storekeepers tired of this after a
while, and then the couple laid siege
at the county commissioners Office to
receive them as the prodigal son and
daughter. The fatted calf continues
to gambol on the green with no
thought of gracing the board at the
family reunion, at which the McNabbs
were to be chief guests.

FORT BAKERY IS
TAXED TO UTMOST

Fort Sam Houston, March 20. (Spe-
ciaD-Baking tons of bread daily is
now in progress at Fort Sam Houston
where one-third Of the United States
army is mobilized. The division bak-
cry on the maneuver grounds, under
the supervision of Captain L. r. Hol-
brook, turned out 5000 loaves of bread
yesterday with but four ovens in
service. Eight ovens have been in
stalled, and when all are in operation
they will turn out 10000 pounds of as
fine quality of bread as can be baked
in the United States, each day. Cap
tain Holbrook was ordered here from
Fort Leavenworth, where he was in
of the Bakers and Cooks
school there. He has eighty-seven
men in his command and these are all
busy making bread. Tons of flour
are used every day and this is piled
In great ricks covered with tarpaulin
near the bakery. One of the most in
teresting sights on the maneuver
ground is this long line of ovens each
turning out fifteen patches of bread a
day. The old days of the hard tack
have passed for the soldiers while in
camp and instead of the bread that
had to be broken with hammer, they
get as good quality as is served in
any American home.

San Antonio, Texas, March 2O.-Of.
ficers and men alike at the army man.
uvers camp were eager readers OF
news from Washington and Mexico
today, seeking for straws to reveal
how winds of affairs are blowing. 1t
is generally conceded that whatever
Minister Limantour's mission to Mexl.
co may be, it has q vital bearing on
destinies of the troops here. Events
that will transpire this week are ex.
pected to clear the situation consider
ably. Close observers of the Mexican
situation declare that mere changes
in the cabinet Of President Diaz OF
even the resignation of the president
himself, should he attempt to appoint
successor, can scarcely be satisfac.
tory to the revolutionists. Led by
Francisco I. Madero, the insurrectos
has insisted first and last that there
must be free election fer president
and local self government. Cabinet
changes scarcely would meet this de-
mand. There must be recognition of
the right Of suffrage, they say.

START TO HARVEST
1000 BUSHELS OF
BERMUDA onions
(spse,al To The Tribuns.)

San Antonia. Texas, March 2o:-
Especial. )-Harvesting the Bermuda
onion crop in southwest Texas VIII
begin today. Those in touch with
prospects declare that the crop this
year will be much larger than ever
before. Last year the Laredo DIS.
trict alone shipped more than 900
cars in car load lots. The crop this
year in that locality indicates that
this will be increased by almost l.
900 cars, one farmer in that vicinity
having almost 500 acres devoted to
this vegetable. Reports from Asher.
tor and Crystal CITY, both in the great
artesian belt, Cotulla, the Lower Rio
Grande valley, and the gulf coast
country all indicate greater produc-
tion than ever before. Notwjthstand-
ing the increased demand for the Tex
as grown onion indications are to the
effect that prices will be fully as profit
producing as they were last year.
The crop this year means additional
millions to the farmers of the Lone
Star state.

ditions are all hostile to them. Fed

Americans are killed or not"
H. c. Converse of Glendora, CAL,
made this statement today after
visit to the Jail at Jaurez, Mexico.
where his son, Lawrence, 81 years old,
together with Edwin Blatt, Of Pitts
burg, Penn, Is confined on charge
of participating in the Mexican insur-
rection.
"Since the state department of the
United States has made representa-

captured 81 s American side @ Of the
are being better treated. They are
now allowed to receive food sent from
outside"
Mr.. Converse expects the prisoners
will soon be released. Apother
American prisoner, Richard Brown Of
Ell Paso, IS in the Jaurez Jail. He de-.
clares that he was arrested while
helping the wounded near Jaurez So
far as known here, the state depart
ment has made no representation to
Mexico in Browns case.

NUMBER 4PASSED
Up VALLEY CITY

Valley City, Mar. 2o.-In making a
test of the new Fritz law, which COM
pels all passenger trains passing
through the state to stop at county
seats, enacted at recent session OF
the legislature, the author of the
measure failed to stop the Northern
Pacific east bound train No. 4 at VAL
ley City yesterday.
Mr.. Fritz resides at TOwrer and ad-
vices from that. locality state that the
Great Northern trains Nos. and 2
are going to comply with the provis-
ions of the New Fritz law and are ar
ranging a new schedule which will
permit them to make the necessary
stop as now required by the statutes.
A test was evidently being made of
the N. P. and it was for this purpose
that Mr.. Fritz attempted to stop the
train yesterday afternoon at Valley
City. 1t was evident, however, that
the train crew had received instruc-
tions for the train did not even make
the usual stop for coal and water but
whizzed through at the rate of forty
miles an hour. It is also said that had
Mr.. Fritz made an attempt to pull the
bell rope it would have availed him
nothing for it is claimed that the rope
was disconnected with the engine.
A number of passengers who knew
Mr.. Fritz and understood the situa-
ton, had a good laugh but they were
mostly with him in sentiment and en-
dorsed his attitude in testing the serv.
ice OF the trains in ther violation of
the new measure.
The Fritz bill, H. B. 120, passed the
house after considerable debate. Aside
from the activity of it's author in it's
hebalf, Representative Ployhar and
Kuhl assisted in it's passage. The bill
had clearer sailing in the senate.

Especial To The TrIbune.)

Jefferson City, Mo-, March 20
Both branches of the general as
sembly labored today to clean up for
adjournment tomorrow and the delib-
erations of the lower body were en-.
livened by a fist fight. Representa-
tive Stark of Cass county struck Percy
Smith, clerk in the state fish and
game department when the latter un-
dertook the defense of his chief, Game
Warden Tolerton, while Representa-
tive Simmons of Shelby county, had
the floor. Smith was knocked down.
Immediately the house was in an up
roar and it was some time before the
ssrgeantat-arms was able to restore
order. To eliminate further trouble,
recess was taken.

LOAN SHARK DAY
SURELY PASSING
Especial To The Tribune.)

Chicago, March 20.-The rapacity OF
the loan shark of Chicago and Illinois
will be curbed by bill now pending
in the legislature which has the en-.
dorsement Of the Legal Aid Society
and several clubs and commercial or
ganizations. Persistent warfare has
resulted in pulling the fangs of the
money loaners, who a few years ago
openly, and even now in secret, levy
a tribute of 80 to 40 per cent on their
victims. An investigation has shown
that some $25,00O,O00 is invested in
the loan shark business, of which
$3,500,000 is employed by 125 Offices
in Chicago, according to the report
made to the Russell Sage Founda-
ton. That report gave instances where
the extra fees, brokerage. protest fees
and collection charges added to the in
terest charges made the total rate
paid as high as 1871 per cent per an
mum. Other instances were found
where men and women had been pay
ing for years on debt of this kind,
and then owed several times as much
as the original principal The Ap-
Dadoc bill fixes a maximum of per
cent per month which may be charged
for loans upon household goods, wear
ing apparel, or mechanics tools. and
per cent for the assignment of wa
ges. A limit of $1,000 Is placed upon
any loan in this classification. 1t was
drawn by the committee which includ-
ed George P. High, representing the
Industrial club; NJ. v. Wellington, the
Legal Aid Society; John V. Farwell,
the Commercial club; A. C. Rishel, the
City club, and Marvin B. Poole, of the
of Commerce.
