MEXICAN SITUATION SERIOUS
President Taft Does Not Place Much
Faith in Immediate Peace.

Washington, May 3. = Confidential
government reports which are being
received at the White House from
Mexico indicate that conditions in
that country are still serious. 1t is
said that the insurgents are making
preparations for a more aggressive
campaign. The peace news from Ell
Paso which followed the signing of an
armistice by the federals and the
rebels does not appear to have relieved
President Taft's apprehensions over
the situation. The impression given
at the White House is that the lull in
the hostilities is entirely superficial
and does not signify any substantial
change in internal conditions in Mex
leo.
The White House has received no
reply from President Diaz to the re-
quest of President Taft that federal
troops be kept away from the Ameri-
can border during the progress of a
battle.

Forty Members o: Ohio Legis-
lature involved.
IMMUNITY BATH FOR NO ONE
State Officer Said to Have Been
Solicited for Bride to Expedite
Passage of Bill of Inter-
est to Him.

Columbus, o., May 3.-About forty
members of the Ohio legislature are in
volved in the charges of bribery which
the Franklin county grand jury met to
consider. The subject was taken before
grand jury instead of a legislative
committee on the advice of Governor
Harmon and others to prevent accused
members from escaping punishment
through the immunity bath. Scores
of witnesses have been summoned and
it is said that the jury may make a
partial report some time today.
Officers of state organizations inter.
tested in legislation before this assem-
bly, have been summoned to tell what
they know of efforts to obtain brides
by members. They include officers CT
such bodies as the state board of COM
Eerce, the Anti-Saloon league, the
Personal Liberty league and heads of
large corporations.
Among concerns whose officers will
testify is the Cleveland Underground
Railroad company, of which A. B. Du-
Port Thomas F. Schmidt and w. R
Hopkins are officers. Hopkins has rep
resented the company here in work
ing for the passage of the Cleveland
railway bill.
1t is reported that at least one head
of D state department was solicited for
a bride to expedite the passage of a
bill of interest to his department.
eve have before us enough proof to
convict in the cases in which we are
engaged" said Attorney-General Ho-
gan after a talk with Prosecuting
Attorney Turner about legislative
bribery. Il want to say now that if
there is any need for immunity baths
they will not be given to systematic
grafters and bribetakers. If we give
immunity to- any one it will be to the
person least culpable."

A GOOD MEAS SURE.

Assemblyman Merlin Hulps bill tC
prevent "vote swapping" and "'log-
rolling" which has passed both houses
of the legislature, is good measure.
It's purpose is to have every bill stand
or fall on it's own merits or dement's.
It's provisions are briefly outlined as
follows:
For two members of the legislature
to exchange votes for or against bill
is made felony, punishable by fines
of from $500 to 81 900, and from one to
three years in the penitentary. The
measure also includes the governor in
its terms, providing that any member
who shall make an agreement either to
kill or approve a bill in return for sup
port of another pending measure, is
guilty in like manner, and any political
deal by which the governor promises
that he will appoint or remove pub
lie official is covered by the operation
of the Hull act This offense also is a
felony with like penalty. There is no
prohibition of free discussion of meas
ures or of an agreement to compromise
conflicting provisions in bills"
1t is we'll to enact law aimed at the
evils of log rolling in legislation. The
practice ought to be discountenanced
generally.

ARMIST|CE EXTENDED AGAIN
Hitch May Come if Federal Repre-.
sentatives Do Not Bear Full
Power to Act for Government
military Operations.

Ell Paso, May 3.-For the federals,
preme court of Mexico; Miguel Ahu.
mada, governor of Chihuahua; Rafael
Hernandez, attorney, friend of Jose
Yves Limantour.
For the insurrectos, Dr. Francisco
Vasquez Gomez, former candidate for
vice president; Pine Suarez, provision
al governor of Yucatan; Francisco l.
Madero, father of the insurrectos
leader.
These are the men who will discuss
Mexican peace terms. When Judge
Carbajal and Governor Ahumada ar
rive on Thursday the peace negotia-
lions can begin. Meantime, the arm
istice is to be extended for another
five days from Wednesday.
The insurrectos will insist that the
federal commissioners have absolute
power TO act for the government and
if they do not bear this power there
will be a hitch in negotiations until
they can get it.
lnsuirectos rode into Chihuahua and
FREQ d number of promiscuous shots,
but were driven out by federals. In
surrecto officials were unable to &C.
ca mt fer it and said it must have been
a small band of drunken rowdies with
out any official connection with the
revolutionists.
All railroad lines south of Chihua-
hua are still tied up and the country
in the region of Torreon is reported
one hour in federal hands and next in
charge of the insurrectos. The insur-
rectos have looted over 100000 worth
of goods, including arms and ammuni-
ton, in the past ten days in towns in
the region Of TorreOn.
Durango, in the state of Durango, it
is reported, is in rebel hands, but at
insurrecto headquarters they have no
such advices, neither have they ad-
vices that their men have been forced
to leave Gomez Palacio.

WRECK DUE TO NEGLIGENCE
Pennsylvania Officials Did Not An
nounce Coming Of Special.

Trenton, N. j., May 3.-As a result
of the wreck Saturday at Martin s
Creek there is said to be a possibility
of a serious shake-up in the manage
ment of the Belvidere division of the
Pennsylvania railroad. 1t is said that
the cause of the disaster was a fail
ure on the part of officials of the COM
pany to announce the approach of the
special train.
Worlkmen repairing the tracks where
the accident occurred are said to have
been wholly unaware of the presence
of the special in their vicinity and en-
ployes declare that the rails were ac-
tually being taken up when the ene'~e
bore down upon them. Some Of e
workmen, it is said, even had narrow
escapes themselves from injury.

A STRONG NJ A n.

Every day furnishes new indications
that Woodrow Wilson is ever gaining
stronger and stronger hold upon the
hearts of his countrymen. Here is an
incident as told in press dispatch from
New York under date of April 80:
"Ex- Secretary Of the Treasury Leslie
NJ. Shaw was probably the most indig-
nant Individual in this city over what
he characterized as 9 foolish break =
by members of the New York alumni
of Pennington seminary.
"At the annual dinner last night Mr..
Shaw was the guest Of honor and in
a bitter speech assailing Progressive
measures, but especially the direct
election Of United States senators, and
the initiative, referendum and recall, he
spoke disparagingly Of Gov. Wilson,
New Jersey.
THE mention Of Wilson's name
aroused the diners who cheered the
former Princeton president to the echo
and shouted, Wilson will be our next
president" to the disgust of Shaw, who
thoroughly disconnected, sat down"
Following are short quotations from
two great independent newspapers
which show the trend of the Wilson
sentiment:
Baltimore Sun: The story of the
career of DR.. Woodrow Wilson, from
the day he accepted the democratic
nomination for governor of New Jersey
down to the present time, is one of the
most remarkable, the most interesting
and inspiring chapters in the history Of
American politics. 1t hardly has a
parallel.
Springfield Republican: The bril-
liant record of the New Jersey Legis-
lature, under the inspiring and master
full leadership of Gov. Woodrow Will
son, is now substantially complete. 1t
embraces four great measures-enacted
into law-the Geran elections bill, a
stringent corrupt practices bill, pub
lie utilities bill, and bill providing for
a commission form of government in
municipalities. Not the least striking
asnect of the situation in the New
JERSEY Legislature is that the repub-
lican Senate has supported the governor
scarcely less cordially than the demo-
cratic House, and that is an achieve
ment in bi partisan leadership that
comes very close to genius.
