Declare Diaz Must Quit.

El Paso. Texas, March 25.-Confdent
that the resignation of the Diaz cabi-
net means the end of the present po-
litical regime of Mexico and the insti-
tuition of great reforms. but still un-
certain as to the immediate results
which may follow the selection Of a
new cabinet, the Insurrecto Junta to-
day insisted the insurrection will pro-
ceed. The developments at Mexico
City are regarded as the direct result
Of the Limantours conference with the
Insurrecto agents in New York. The
demand that Diaz declare null his last
election and agree TO a new election
for the president will not be relinquish-
ed and the popular election of COVER
nors of states will be insisted upon.
Nevertheless the selections made by
Diaz for new cabinet. it is thought.
will have an important bearing on the
insnrrection.
Miguel Ahumade, now governor Of
chihuahua. who has been looked upon
as the possible minister Of the interior
is regarded by the Insurrectos as a
leader of the reform movement Jose
yves Limantour and Bernardo Reyes,
former minister of war. now in Eu-
rope on military mission" are re-
garded as men who will figure promi-
nently in the new cabinet If the wishes
Of the Insurrectos are considered.
ut is impossible at present for us
to draw definite conclusions from the
cabinet resignation" said Gonzales
Cara, the Insurrecto secretary of
state. 1--WE are not yet certain that it
is not ruse intended to appease the
revolutionists without granting our de-
mands. We will not lay down our
arms until Diaz is out"

new YORK Law
DECLARED VOID
COMPULSORY COMPENSATION
ACT is PRONOUNCED uN-
CONSTITUTIONAL BY COURT
OF EALs.

Albany, N. Y, March 25.-The
workmen's compulsory compensation
law, passed by the legislature last
year. which provides compensation TO
workmen injured in certain specified
dangerous employments regardless of
the employers negligence, was declar-
ed unconstitutional by the court OF
appeals.
The court holds that the act de-
prives the employer OF his property
without duo process of law. in viola
tion OF the constitution. Judge Werner
wrote the opinion, in which all the
members of the court concurred.
The main feature of the act was
that 1t required employers Of labor

occurring through the course Of the
work, although such injury occurred
solely through the negligence of the
workmen.
The case at issue was that of Earl
Ives. a switchman, against the South
Buffalo Crosstown Railway company.
Ives was injured while at work and
brought an action for damages, al
leging i'm his complaint that he was in
jured solely by reason of a necessary
risk or danger of his employment. The
company admitted the facts but alleg-
ed the statute under which the ac-
tion was brought was unconstitutional.
Although admitting the strength of
the economic and sociological argu-
ments adduced in support of the stat
ute, Judge Werner holds that under
our form Of government courts must
regard all economic, philosophical and
moral theories, however attractive
and desirable they may be. as subor
dinate to the primary question wheth-
er they can can be moulded into stat
utes without infringing upon the let
ter or spirit of our written constitu-

The opinion points out that the ef-
feet OF the act is to abrogatc what is
known as the fellow servant" doctrine
and also "the contributory negligence
rule, both Of which have heretofore

dence OF this state and county, but

cats provide their pets with bells in
the interest of preserving the birds
of song, which are now coming back
to their haunts for the summer. Mrs.
Murphy has interested a largo num-

to take charge of the work. The plan
is to attach a small bell with a strap

being that if it were made a custom

advanced is that this method would

MEN SENT TO JAIL.
Steve and Peter NiokoIich TO Serve
Ninety Days Each.

Steve and Peter Niclxolich, original
ly charged with assault with intent
to do great bodily harm, less than the
crime of murder. were allowed to
change their pleas yesterday afternoon
to assault and battery. Justice Fisher
fined the two men $25 and costs, the
latter amounting to about $3.50. The
costs looked too large and they de-
cided to take the alternative of nine
ty days each In jail.
The reason the costs were so heavy
is because more than twenty witnesses
were examined in connection with the
charges, several trips from Houghton
to Calumet and return had been taken
and the costs Of the mems meals in
jail since waiting the disposition OF
the case were also footed up.
