Icemen Giving Full
Weight, Says Haskell

Things are breaking good for the Ice

suitable to him, but he stands in the
full glow Of public approval bestowed
upon him by Col. w. c. Haskell, super
intendent Of weights and measures.
This is the season Of the year when
the colonel dons his gum shoes and
seeks the trail Of the iceman. His in
vestigations have shown that dealers
are delivering their goods in large pack

Complaints this season have been

discovered to be unfounded," said Colo

Outlook Is Bright
For an Harmonious
Cabinet, Is Report

JUAREZ, May 23.-Ernesto Madero's
announcement from Monterey that he
would accept the portfolio of finance in
In the ministry that is to counsel Senior
de la Barra as provisional president,
has given great satisfaction to Fran
| cisco l. Madero, jr., and his chiefs.
They said today that the outlook for an
harmonious and effective cabinet was
auspicious
Its Components, as agreed upon now,
are Ernesto Madero, minister of fl
nance; Manuel Cafero. minister of colo
nization and industry; Manuel Bonilla,
minister of public utilities: Francisco
Vasquez Gomez. minister of public in
struction, and Emilio Vasquez Gomez,
minister of interior administration.
Vasquez Tagle, of Mexico City. has not
yet accepted the portfolio of justice.
III health is said to deter him.
Disquieting reports continue to
reach Madero's headquarters from
various parts OF Mexico. The Glen
tificos is reported to be preparing to
offer Madero all opposition possible
in the formation of a new govern
ment. The opposition is not expect
ed to be anything but political how
ever. The fact. that the fighting by
Independent rebel bands has not
ceased is what alarms Madero more
than anything else.
If President Diaz causes another
breaking of the armistice he had bet
ter look to his head, according to
message received by the rebel chief
tain.
LaNeri. the Amazon rebel leader"
operating in Sonora state with the
army of General Guerrero has threat
ened to cut off the aged Presidents
head and present 1t to Madero on a
silver charger.
When Madero's telegram to Guerrero
reached the latter's camp. LaNeri tel
egraphed back. She told Madero she
would lay down her arms but II Diaz
did not live up strictly to the terms
of the peace treaty. she would i'm
mediately carr yout her head sever
ing threat.
ENJOYS TO Interior.
1t was apparent today that Madero
regarded It as vital to his leadership
that he bring peace among the insur-
gents, now that has has signed a peace
treaty with Dtaz. Today he sent his
brothers, Gustavo and Emilio, into the
interior of Mexico to pacify the rebel
bands still insisting upon continuing to
fight.
The operations of the socialist party
of Mexico are causing considerable
trouble to Madero. Copies of La Re
generacion, organ of the Los Angeles
junta, were confiscated by Madero to-
day. The edition contained an attack
on Madero, calling him slave driver"
and demanding the election of Edward
Magon as president.
'Magon and Figueroa are nearly So
cialists," said Madero, ST., today. They
want to cause trouble here as they do
everywhere else"
