WAR6URTON SPEAKS
FOR FREE SUGAR.
Favors Destroying Beet Raising In.
dustry That Price May Be
Reduced.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., May 5.-Rep-
resentative Warburton of Washington
today spoke on free sugar, but pre-
faced his remarks with the state
ment that he would vote for the dem
ocratic free list bill. He thought the
bill would be immensely improved If
1t contained his amendment placing
sugar and rice on the free list, but
said he would vote for it even if his
amendment were rejected
81 do not believe in taxing any food
products which we do not produce in
sufficient quantities to supply home
consumption" said WarburtOn. In
advocating free sugar he said that the
removal of the duty would lower the
cost of sugar to the consumer cents
a pound, practically the amount of
the present duty. He maintained that
the duty on sugar was solely in the in
terest of the sugar trust, although
nominally intended to protect the
beet sugar industry. The bulk of the
sugar consumed in this country must
always be imported, he maintained,
and the profit to the farmer on the
sugar beet crop is so small as to
yield him little. He would have beet
lands planted to other crops which
yield greater profit to the farmer.

On the other hand. prominent

SEATTLE, May 6.-Rev. NJ. A

The mystery concerning the mar
back of Detective Burns was cleared
tonight when DR.. Matthews announc
ed that he had engaged Mr.. Burns

DR. Matthews, although in receipt
of a $4,000 salary, had to realize the
full loan value of his insurance poll

detectives. He has issued state

Generals Opinion That Inter-.
vention May Come
Causes Trouble
PRESIDENT FOR PEACE
Says Blood Would Have to
Be Deep to Cause Any
Interference

WASHINGTON. May 6.--Stories
printed today that Gen. Leonard
Wood. chief of staff of the army, at
an informal gathering of members OF
the house committee on military at
fairs Thursday expressed the opinion
that intervention in Mexico would be
inevitable and that it would take 200,-
600 American troops to patrol the
troubled republic brought no little
chagrin to administration circles.
Denials Issued
Official denials were issued rom
several sources and care was taken
to express anew the administration
position that intervention is a most
remote possibility One of President
Taft's callers today went so far as to
quote him as saying that blood
would have to be so deep in Mexico
that a man could wade through it,"
before the American army would
cross the border.
This has been reported to have been
the presidents position throughout
the Mexican troubles and again was
generally accepted as such. Members
of congress were inclined to the be-
lief that the reported utterances of
Gen. Wood were to be taken as that
officers personal view.
Gen Wood himself and Secretary of
War Dickinson were particularly bit
ter in denouncing the circulation of
stories of Intervention at this time,
saying they considered them calculat-
ed to work infinite mischief and en-
danger the lives of Americans in
Mexico by inflaming the natives and
even to plunge the two countries into
war
Through all of the conflicting re-
ports as to the American attitude
there stood out the fact that inter
vention in Mexico can come only
through the action OF congress. This
| fact served to maintain placidity at
the capital.
Up to Congress.
President Taft. conscious of the
constitutional restrictions as to in
, vading a foreign country and thereby
committing an act of war, has time
and again made the declaration that
he would lay the whole matter before
congress if the time should ever come
for intervention by the country and
that the responsibility for action
would be placed squarely upon con-
greSS.
, Todays happenings brought out
fresh rum0rs that friction exists be-
tween the war and state departments
over the handling OF affairs connected
with the Mexican situation.
A report also was persistent to-
night that Secretary knox's resigna-
tiOn in the near future would not
cause great surprise. No confirmation
was obtainable. A suggestion that
Secretary Knox might retire from the
state portfolio was current, seven
before the Mexican situation was
sprung.
