MAOERO HAS NO OPPOSITION.
VIII Be Chosen President Of Msx,..
and Will Be Supported by De /,
Barra and General Reyes.

Mexico City.-There now seems -
doubt that Francisco |. Madero win
be chosen president of Mexico l..
fact 1t does not appear that he b,s
any serious opposition. His elec,io,,
is regarded as an assured fact
In an interview on Saturday. Ma.
dero said: III | should be eelctad,
president, Senior De la Barra viii ba
minister of foreign affairs and Con.
eral Reyes will be minister of war in
my cabinet"
This was after meeting between
Madero, President De la Barra and
General Reyes.
The meeting was accidental. Ma.
dero had been comforting with presi
dent De la Barra about the political
situation when General Reyes arrived
Madero was asked TO remain. Frank
discussion OF the situation resulted.
In talking OF the meeting General
Reyes said: 1T is true that am
going to be minister OF war il Senior
Madero is elected. | am not going to
be a candidate for the presidency or
participate in the elections.
Just before you came" he said TO
the interyiewers. "a committee called
on me to ask me to be Il candidate
for the presidency. but | told them /
intended TO be member OF Senior
Maderos cabinet II he Is elected
ITO offer myself as candidate
might mean a confusion which would
produce anarchy, and can assure you.
both President De Ia Barra. Senior Ma.
dero and myself will work earnestly
and necessarily TO prevent such
contingency"
Maderos remark that President De
la Barra would return TO his recent
post OF minister OF foreign relations
is looked upon as an indication that
the new government will contain rep
resentatiyes OF all elements and will
have stable effect on the future ad
ministratlOn.

PRODUCE HOUSE
BURNED DOWN
A Big Loss This Morning to
Joshua Mickle.
MAY Be |NCtND|ARy.
Buildings and Contents Were Des-
troyed-Farmers' Exchange
Saved From Fire.

Fire was discovered this morning
in the produce house and shipping
station of Joshua Mickle, out along
the Central railroad near the Shiloh
pike. The big building was entirely
destroyed together with considerable
contents.
When the fire was discovered an
alarm was telephoned to the fire de-
partment, but there was no response,
it being claimed by the officials that
the property was outside of the city
limits. About five minutes later an
alarm was turned in from box No. 81,
Broad and Fayette streets, and the de-
partment was obliged to make the
run.
Little could be accomplished at this
time as there was no water for the
engine, and the chemical only could
be used.
The fire blazed furiouSly and soon
enveloped the entire structure. Nearby
was the building of the Farmers
Exchange and by earnest effort the
fire was kept off this structure
In the building destroyed was a car
load De fertilizer, a carload of crates,
"a carload of hampers, 100 baskets of
tomatoes and about one half car load
of feed. All these were consumed
by the flames.
The. building was probably worth
about $4,000.
None of the Central railroad COM
pany's freight cars were burned. A
drill engine was dispatched to the
scene when the fire was reported and
hauled away freight cars standing
near by.
The produce house which had been
destroyed, had been used recently by
AIickle & Erwin as shipping centre.
1t was owned by Mr.. Mickle.
The cause of the fire is unknown.
"A colored man was seen running away
from the place when the structure
was discovered to be on fire.
The fire department continued on
the scene until ten o'clock this morn
ing, and the chemical engine was
scharged several times.

GOES TO JAIL
FOR SELLING RUM
VIM. Stewart Sentenced to
Fine and Jail.
PERJURY CASE IS ON
Four Girls are Defendants on the
Serious Charge of Perjury.
Lawyers for Defease.

The criminal court business was
resumed this morning before Judge
R. P. Tuller
The panel of Jurors had been di-
rected by the judge to return today
to try such cases as might be present.
| ed.
Prosecutor Fithian moved for judg-
ment in the case of William Stewart
who had pleaded non vult to the in
dictment charging the illegal sale of
liquor.
Rex. A. Donnelly made a strong
plea for leniency in Stewards case,
claiming that Stewart was a physical
sufferer with hernia and with tubercu-
losis and was therefore entitled to
leniency He admitted that Stewart
had been before the court before
when a fine was imposed upon him
Of $100. The court now sentenced him
to 3 months in Jail and to pay fine
of $100, and to stand committed until
fine is paid
The Prosecutor then moved the trial
of Alice Mattison, Maud VanMerte,
Hattie Wright and Hannah Sutton,
charged under four indictments with
perjury.
A jury was empanelled and former
Judge John N Westcott and Rex. A.
Donnelly appeared for the defendants.
All the indictments ara to be tried
together.
The jurors not on this panel were
excused by Judge Tuller until Tues
day, November 14th, when they will
return before Judge Cole in Circuit
Court.
The four girls now being tried, it
is alleged by the Prosecutor, went be-
fore the Grand Jury at the April term
of court and testified that they had
been carnally abused by one Thomas
Boyle, of Camden, and that Thomas
Boyle was thereupon indicted At
his trial for this offense, these defend
ants on the witness stand denied what
they had sworn to before the Grand
Jury.
The county clerk was called to
prove the Indictment
James W. Trenchard, foreman of
the April Grand Jury, was called to
prove the testimony of the defendants
before the Grand Jury.
This evidence was objected to by
Judge Wescott on the ground that
the Grand Jurors are sworn to secre-
cy, and cannot testify as to what took
place in the Grand Jury room, and
he quoted the law on the point.
The Prosecutor argued against the
objection also quoting law fully in
sustenance of his point.
The court overruled the objection,
and Mr.. Trenchard was allowed to
testify. He related the testimony Civ
en- by each of these girls before the
Grand Jury, after being sworn before
him as foreman in the case of Boyle.
Prosecutor Fithian was sworn and
went on the stand to testify. Judge
Wescott objected to his testimony on
the same grounds as before, and fur
ther that being the Prosecutor he
might be biased in the case. Judge
Wescott put his objections vigorously.
