The judge then sentenced Dietz to
prison for life.
John Dietz made the usual motion for
a new trial, although the motion proba-
bly, has never been followed by an
argument like the one heard this morn
ing in the little country court.
V. w. James, of Eau Claire, special
attorney for the state, suggested to the
convicted man that he get an attor-
ney, draw up the motion in proper le-
gal form and ask the court for a ten
days stay in which to file the excep-
ton.
Dietz ignored the suggestion and
plunged headlong into his denunciation
of the lumber trust The court also
advised Dietz to get an attorney. Judge
Reid overruled the motion for a new
trial but gave Dietz ten days in which
to file exceptions.

of Cananea at 2:30 D. m. yesterday,
The FEDERAL garrison consisting of 200
men, under Mayor Arnold, and 200 un-
der Colonel Chiapas, who had just ar
rived from Aqua Prieta refused to sur
render. Cabral then sent a courier to
American Consul George Wiswall, ad-
vtsing that the Americans in the camp
be removed to a place of safety.
The rebel leader expressed special So
Hcitude for the safety of women and
children and said he would grant time
for their safe removal. An appeal i'm
mediately was sent to the American
border towns for automobiles, the rail-
road having been destroyed between
Cananea and Naco as well as the line
from Del Rio to Nogales. The first of
these automobiles reached Cananea at
9 o'clock and before midnight more
than a score had arrived, most Of them
beginning the return journey at once.
No excitement attended the exodus,
the women appearing to enjoy the ad-
venture.
Last night negotiations were begun
to prevent a battle. Mayor Arnold
headed a commission that went to the
rebel camp under a flag of truce for
a conferen with Cabral. which lasted
until midnight. Cabral was urged to
forego an attack because the princi-
pal sufferers would be Americans, who
control the mines in the vicinity. When
the conference broke up it was be-
lieved that Cananea would be spared
for the present However, should Col
onel Chiapas, the executioner of Col
onel Talamantes and his two sons, at
tempt to escape from the city, the
rebel leader said it would be the sig
nal for an immediate attack. The in
surrectos are determined to take
Chiapas and wreak vengeance upon
him for the execution Of Talamantes.
The rebels were encamped early to-
day at Ojo De Aqua 1t is believed
that Cabral will withdraW the main
body of his troops, leaving only a
force sufficient to cope with Colonel
Chiapas should the latter attempt to
cut his way out.

THEY EMBRACE AND MAKE UP.
Details of the Row Between President
Madero and Gen OrOzco.

Juarez, May 13.-Trouble has been
brewing in the rebel camp ever since
1T became known yesterday that a
number of officers in the federal
forces captured at Juarez had violated
their paroles and come to the Ameri-
can side. Without funds practically
without food supplies. this was the
last straw with Orozco and his follow
ers, who had been much dissatisfied
over the manner in which Provisional
President Madero had followed up the
hard fought victory of Juarez, in ap-
pointing cabinet officers with whom,
they asserted, he consulted over state
matters in preference to his army Of
ficers and his apparent neglect of the
actual needs of his followers.
About 9:20 this morning, Orozco
gathered about a hundred of his fol-
lowers all heavily armed and most of
them mounted, and marched to the
headquarters of Madero. There Orozco
demanded of Madero money for his
unpaid men and food for their unfed
stomachs.
Madero could not comply. He ex-
planned that it was impossible to
grant the demands at the moment
but that arrangements would be mSde
to provide for their necessities.
Orozco heatedly replied that this neg
lect had been borne too long. That
incompetency had been shown by Ma
dero and his newly appointed advisers.
He then placed Madero under arrest
Outside the door were lined the fol-
lowers of Orozco watching eagerly the
animated argument between their
general and the provisional president.
Madero came to the doorway and
made an appeal to the soldiers to sup
port him in the crisis explaining as
he had done unsuccessfully with
Orozco, that their needs would be at
tended to within a brief time But
his appeal fell on deaf ears.
viva Orozco" went up from the
ranks of the fighting men, and Ma
dero, disheartened, turned back to his
office, followed by Orozco. Further
discussion followed. Orozco finally
demanded the immediate resignation
of the Madero cabinet, saying scorn-
fully that they were incompetent, and
that Madero hereafter pay more atten-
tion to the needs of his soldiers. To
this demand Madero acquiesced and
finally the provisional president and
his general embraced in true Latin
fashion, and the incipient rebellion
came to an end with the understand
ing that the cabinet would cease to
exist and that the troops would be
looked after.
How deeply the rebellion permeated
the ranks of the insurrectos outside of
Orozco's command is not known. But
