wouldn't give $50 a year rent for
the place.
William Daniels and a number of
other witnesses testified that the
place was not worth over $4,000 and
that Mrs. Klenck would be unable
to contribute anything toward the
support of her son.
The defense made out a strong
case.
At the conclusion of the taking of
testimony, Judge Searle stated that
the burden was upon the overseers
to show Mrs. Klenck could support
her son in the Insane Asylum with
out impoverishing herself, and from
the evidence in the case, her ability
to support her son had not been
shown.
By agreement of the attorneys,
however, Mr.. Kimble was given until
the third Monday in October to file
a brief, when the case will again be
argued and decided

BULLER REMOVES EMPLOYEES.

State Fish Commissioner Nathan
r. Butler, who took office the first of
this month, has sent notice to all
the employees of the department of
fisheries that their services would
not be required after September 80.
The order affects about so persons,
including the employees at eight state
fish hatcheries.
1t is believed that the order is to
some extent a formality, and that a
number of the employees will be re-
appointed, though it is probable that
a number of changes will be made.

SPEED KING RACE
Promoter Welman Here Making Arrangements for Big
Meet at the Benning Track for July 22, and Wild
Bob" Burman Is to Be on the Program.
By HARRY WARD.

If present plans are carried out,
Washington automobile racing enthu-
siasts will soon have an opportunity to
see wild Bob Burman, holder Of
many worlds records, in action with
his big 20O-horsepower "Blitzen" Benz.
w. H. Wellman, who is associated
with E. A. Moross in the promotion OF
automobile meets, is in the city today,
making preliminary arrangements for a
big meet to be held at the Benning
track an Saturday, July %. Application
for a sanction for the meet has been
1nade to the contest board of the
American Automobile Association, and
it is expected to be granted tomorrow.
fine bunch of events has been pre-
pared, and the outlook is for the best
automobile racing Washingtonians have
ever seen. Several events at five and
ten miles for cars of various classifica-
tlons will comprise the first part of the
program, and 1t is then expected Bur-
man will try out his big foreign ma
chine for a track record. The wind-up
will be 50-mile race for two classes
from 231 to $50 cubic inches piston dis
placement, and from $50 to 600 inches
piston displacement.
This race promises to be a thriller, as
many of the cars that will compete are
record holders, while their pilots are
daring and take all sorts of chances in
order to win. An Australian pursuit
race and a novelty race may also be
added. Some of the events will be limit
ed to Washington amateur drivers and
every opportunity. will be afforded them
to show their friends what they can do
with a machine on a circular race
track
In addition to Burman, 1t is planned
to bring Billie Knipper, Hugh Hughes,
Grainor and some of the other crack
drivers TO this meet. Entry blanks
will be issued within the next few days.
1t has been a number of years since an
automobile race meet has been held on
the Benning track, and 1t is likely the
course will be thronged during the
meet.
MIR. Wellman will 30 over to New
York tonight to confer with Mr.. Moross
and will return Tuesday to make final
arrangements.

MADERO IN DISPUTE
WITH GEN. OROZCO
Mexican Leader Refuses Audience to Envoy From For

periencing much difficulty through in
ternal strife among the leaders of the
different parties.
General Cuellar, who is the chief of
Orozco's STAFF, arrived here early last
night. The letters he bore related to
the trouble between the leaders, and it
is thought proposed plans for settlement
Of the disputes. But when Madero re-
fused him an audience, he left for Gull
can.
orozco believes that Madero refuses
him permission to come to Mexico City
because Madero knows that Orozco is
the ideal of the lower classes, and that
his presence will detract from Madero's S
popularity.
Whether this be true or not. the con-
servative element here declare that Ma
dero Is loosing in popularity. Cartoons
are appearing in the newspapers. por-
traying Madero giving government Of
fees to his many relatives, and rumors
insist that a split in the provisional
cabinet is pending.
Impugn Motives.
The motives of both federals and the
Maderists in the late revolution were
tmpunged by Gen. EgIIia LIS, second in
command Of the artillery division of
the war department. General Lis was
high in the federal forces and distin-
guished himself at the battle of Casa
Grande. His utterances were made at
banquet last night held in his honor.
He said: THE Federals never fought
for Diaz. or for the federal government.
They fought because they had the
nerve to fight. The Maderists fought
for everything except the liberty of
Mexico"
Senor de Ia Barra declared today that
the Madero army, with the exception of
a picked force OF $500 men whom they
are holding to replenish the force of
rurales, has been disbanded.
These men were not in the engage
ment at Iguala Friday. between Gen
eral Figueroa and General Salgado.

MEXICO CITY, July 9.-Relations be-
tween General Pascuele Orozco. the
popular idol of the people, and Madero,
are hourly becoming more strained. The
refusal OF Madero to receive Gen. Con-
zale CueIlar last night, when he arrived
at Chihuahua bearing letters from
Orozco, has been seized upon by the
popular voice as proof that Madero is
jealous Of Orozco.
Madero last night admitted that Judge
Emilio Vazcuez, the minister Of the in
terror, intends to resign before the elec-
tions. This tends to confirm the re-
ports that the Madero and Gomez fac
tons are in dispute. A junction of the
forces Of the secretary OF the interior
with those Of Jorge Vera Estanol, for
mer minister OF education, to support
Estanol for the presidency in the COM
ing elections Is anticipated.
Opposition is apparent generally to
the Madero-Gomez ticket, and Estanol
continues publishing letters bitterly at
tacking Madero. He is regarded as the
strongest candidate yet in the field, and
has strong following. which the sup
port of the minister of the interior will
materially strengthen. Estanol Is the
first Mexican Of prominence to openly
oppose Madero.
Strike Subsiding..
The strike troubles in the City of
Mexico are gradually subsiding. Rioting
is less frequent, and all labor differences
have been practically settled save those
of the matchmakers and the letter car
riers. The postmen's strike had been
settled once, but strike talk was revived
when the telegraph messengers were
given capes, and the postmen were not

SENIOR CRESPO, new
MEXICAN ENVOY, IS
DUE HERE TUESDAY
He Arrives in New York and
Sends Word He Will Come
on.at Once.

Senior Gilberto Crespo y Martinez, the
new Mexican ambassador TO the United
States, is in New York city, where he
landed from the Amerika, OF the Ham,
burg line, yesterday. A telegram from
him to Senior Pereyra, charge d'affaires
of the Mexican embassy, dated today,
says he will leave for Washington soon.
Senior Crespo is expected IN the city
Tuesday.
Senior Pereyra today gave out a state
ment from the Mexican acting secre-
tary of foreign affairs. Senior Bartolome
CarbataI. Senor Carbajal telegrahped
this and other Mexican embassies to an
nounce the following:
THE condition of this country is much
better, and the disbanding OF the revo-
lutionary forces is progressing rapidly.
We hope and expect that it will shortly
be brought to a conclusion.
Mexico is now excellently situated
as respects its economic condition. AS
an example. of this may be cited the
fact that when De la Barra became
president the reserve fund in the treas
ury was 100000 pesos. 1t is now
63, ,OOO, 900 pesos, although but little time
has elapsed.
Industrial conditions and the labor
questions are no longer vcxatious."
Senior Pereyra said he believed the
above Authoritative statement" would
bring reinsurance to thousands of
Americans who have investments in
Mexico.
The new ambassador to the United
States from Mexico will probably drop
one OF his names after arrival here.
At present, like many Mexicans, he
uses a double family name. Crespo is
his fathers name; Martinez the name
of his mothers family. When one says
'Senor Crespo y Martinez" it is as II
one were to say Mr.. Brown and Jones, d"
this sort OF combination sounding rather
extraordinary to Anglo-Saxon ears.
Senior Zamacona e Ynclin, Senor Cres-
pos predecessor as ambassador here,
dropped the second name soon after
arriving in Washington. In his case
the "" which means and" was
changed to an 'e" because the second
name itself began with ~"
Senior Crespo was a mining engineer
before he entered the diplomatic serv-
ice He has been in this country as a
commissioner to expositions. but never
as diplomat, and so far as the MEM
bers of the embassy here know has not
visited Washington. He was stationed
at Havana before Vienna, from which
last place he is transferred to America.

A motorist who has large experience
in touring gives this good advice:
when stopping for any cause the
automobilist should bring the car oyer
to one side of the road so that it will
be out of the way of other traffic. In
doing this a position should be taken
up so that when the car Is started
Ggain there will be no difficulty in get
lIng under way. In bringing the car
to the roadside the driver not orI-
allows others the use ofthe road, but pro-
tects himself from being run into or
hindered while making repairs. etc. On
the other hand, drivers who are other
wise considerate sometimes remain in
or near the center of the road, II the
stop is an involuntary one. and COM
from passing and running the risk of
being hit"
