MEXICAN SITUATION CLEARS
No Longer Doubt of the Purpose of
Mobilization.

Washington.-The so-called Mexican
situation has cleared considerably. The
attitude of the United States govern
ment has ben made plain, and there need
no longer be any doubt, it was said
by administration officials, regarding
the presidents policy.
Mr.. Taft has announced that he will
do everything possible to maintain the
friendly relations existing between this
country and Mexico Any rupture must
come asithe result of some overt act
On Mexican soil.
The UNITED States has no desire to
interfere in the internal affairs OF
Mexico, and President Taft will not
recommend any such interference to con
gress unless circumstances permit Of nc
other possible course.
The American troops were sent to
Texas and prepared for any emergency

Gated that conditions in Mexico were
approaching such chaos that at any
time American lives and property might

What Is Being Done in the Way Of De
welcoming in This Commonwealth.

Jackson-That the Mississippi Land
and Development Association is destined
to eventually place a desirable white ten
ant on every 40 acres of land in Mis-
sissippi, thus making this state one of
the most prosperous in the whole coun-
try, is the opinion of l.. e. Davis, secre-
tary and general manager of the organl-
zation.
The. association of which Mr.. Davis is
the executive head is the outcome OF a
statewide immigration conference held in
Mississippi in June of last year. At this
meeting a fund was raised and MIR. Davis
was made the general secretary, with Of
fees in Natchez, whence the work OF in
ducilg desirable immigration from other
parts of the United States is carried on.
No effort to secure foreign immigrants
is made.
Letters relative to the resources and
state come into the general headquarters
of the association every day. These let
tiers are copied and sent to the secre-
taries of the congressional districts, who
in turn send copies of them to each of
their respective county representatives.
The success of the association up to
| this time, Mr.. Davis states, has been
nothing short of phenomenal. Scores of
families are being induced to come to
Mississippi every month.
The appearance of the boil weevil in
Mississippi, says Mr.. Davis, has brought
about u marked change in the attitude
| of the residents of the state as regards
immigration. Since the boil weevil has
come the negroes have given away before

|CAMORRA LEADER
TO PLEAD INSANITY
RESpERATE BOLDNESS OF ABBATE
MAGGIE rs SHOWN.
Luigi Arena Denies That He Ordered
Killing of Cuoccolo Out Of Revenge
for Betrayal.

Viterbo, ltaly.-The most sensational
session of the trial Of the Camorrists.
who are charged with the murder OF
Gennaro Cuoccolo and his wife, took
place Friday when Gennaro Abbate-
maggie, the ex-member of the murderous
gang, who turned states evidence
against his former brothers in crime,
took the stand. The courtroom was
crowded.
Abbatemaggio, as he was Intercepted,
stood outside his cage erect, as though
challenging the world. He spoke aloud
throughout and ~endeavored to give
strength to his arguments with dramatic
gestures. He described the organization
of the Camorra, it's degrees, plans and
modes OF working. He said he knew
everything concerning the organization,
because he was it's most active member
until 1907, and participated in all its
daring enterprises.
The witness enumerated thefts he had
committed with Luiga Arena, who sat in
the big cage with the other prisoners,
glaring at AbbatemSggio and biting his
lips.
When he reached the climax OF his
testimony, Abbatemaggio summarized
the Camorra by saying:
ut is a filthy association
Throughout his testimony Abbate-
maggie bore himself in a dignifed man
ner. He was thoroughly absorbed with
his mission as informer, and as he re-
entered his cage at the conclusion of the
sitting, he bowed to the jury as though
he were ascending q throne.
Luigi Arena, the Italian who is accused
of having inspired the Camorrists to kill
Genarro Cuoccolo and his wife, was
placed on the stand, and his interroga.
ton developed one of the most sensa-
tional spectacles of the trial to date.
Seventy years old, white-haired and tot
tering, and vicious in his demeanor to
the last degree, Arenas appearance alone
was enough to chill the blood of the spec
tators who packed the courtroom. His
sweeping denials of having participated
in the crime of which Erricone and his
followers are accused were made with
animal ferocity, and his denunciation OF
Abbatemaggio was al outburst of invec-
tives that caused many to leave the
court.
Il am innocent of any part in this
crime," he said, SAND A~bbatemaggio's
statement is false. | did not ask for
Cuoccolo's death nor am | responsible
for it. | am not a Camorrist. | was a
Camorrist only when in prison, for in
prison all men are Camorrists."
The lawyers who are defending the
Camorrists will make every effort to
prove tbst A~bbatemaggio is insane and
his testimony against the band, there
fore, incompetent. The state claims to
have enough evidence to prove the as
s~ertions of the informer, even though he
himself be declared of unstund mind.

TELEPHONE COMPANY WINS.
Supreme Court Reverses Two Adverse
Decisions.

Jacksonville supreme court Monday
again reversed the state in litigation in
which the Cumberland Telephone and
Telegraph Company was the defendant
below, in which two cases were on the
docket. One of these was from Marshall
county and the other from Yalobusha,
and were somewhat different from the
Prentiss county cases decided two or
three weeks ago, in that the contention
was set up that the Cumberland Com
pany had violated another phase of the
antitrust statutes. The matter COM
planned OF was that the defendant cor
poration had entered into an arrange
ment or conspiracy to prevent these local
telephone corporations, with which they
had standing traffic arrangements with
other corporations. In both cases the
court reversed the case and ordered the
bill dismissed, which is supposed to set
tie any other cases of similar character
that may be pending or contemplated.

DENIES THAT
JAPAN IS OUR ENEMY
NO LEAGUE WITH MEXICO OR
OTHER COUNTRY.
.Thers Can Be No Serious Misunder-
standing Between the United
States and My Country"

Neutrality-suspicious. Yasuya Uchida,
ambassador in Washington from the
Japanese emperor, formally and official
" denied Monday hostile intention ON
the part of his nation towards the
United States, either in Hawaii or else
where.
The following is Baron Uchida's
authorized declarations:
1T is nonsense and unjust to the
japanese government to attribute such
acts as are intimated in these dis
patches. If you investigate the history
of Japanese immigration to the Ha-
waiian Islands, you will find that it be-
gan about twenty-five years ago. The
old royal government needed japanese
labor to work the sugar plantations, and
asked Japan to furnish it. There was
some hesitancy at first, but finally the
request was complied with and immigra-
ton continued to the islands from my
country for a number Of years. 1t has
practically stopped now, as it has to all
American possessions and, in fact, to
every foreign power. Our government
wants our people at home-we have our
W industrial problems to solve, we
have Korea and Manchuria to attend
to. The deep thinking Americans GER
tainly attribute ne Interior motive to
the presence of japanese in the Ha-
waiian Islands, the Philippines or any
other land under the American flag.
The recent treaty has brought the two
countries ever closer together than be-
fore. l and other Japanese in this
country are deeply chagrined and
grieved to see this war agitation.
with respect to Mexico, l can only
add what l have said before. There is
no league between that country and
Japan in existence or in contemplation
that could possibly be interpreted as
a%ntagonistic to America. In fact, there
is no compact between the two coun.
tries that the world does not know of.
81 have no comment to make on re-
cent exnert opinions of European army
and naval experts with reference to
Japan and America, except to say they
have been made at a great distance from
the powers which they vitality concern.
l regret that these gentlemen have ex-
pressed such opinions, particularly for
publication.

PACKERS MUST
AGAIN GO TO TRIAL
IMMUNITY GRANTED BY COURT
NOT UNIVERSAL.
Decision is That Immunity Granted
Was for Acts Committed Prior
to Indictment.
Copyright ls11]

Chicago.--Judge George A. Carpenter,
in the United States district court, in re-
fusing to quash indictments against the
ten Chicago packers, placed a limit on
the freedom from liability granted the
packers in the Immunity bath" given
by Judge Otis Humphrey in 1906.
He also ruled that the Immunity
bath" did not prohibit the facts and evil
dence on which it was granted being
used as evidence to establish proof OF a
conspiracy existing at a date after the
immunity was given.
The ruling means that the packers
will have to 60 to trial OF indictments
charging them with conspiracy to violate
the Sherman antitrust law. There are
three indictments, in the first of which
are five counts. The defendants can be
fined $4,000, or imprisoned for n year,
on each of the counts.
Judge Carpenter, in his decision, held
that Judge Humphrey could not grant
the packers immunity to contain In
definitely in an unlawful undertaking,
and that the immunity did not apply
to acts committed after 1906 as a re
suit of the conspiracy.
The evidence given to Judge Hum
phrey could not relate to facts that had
not taken place at that time, and the
court ruled that while the bath" purged
the acts of their ~criminality, the phys
zeal existence of the facts could not be
obliterated and that there was no legal
reason why evidence of the facts could
not be used to establish conspiracy al
legged to have been in operation subse-
quent to the "bath."

PLAN N PLANT.
Where State May Employ Its Female
ConvictS.

Jackson.-Dr. j. c. Gathings, superin-
tendent of the penitentiary farms, who
has been making his monthly rounds of
the four big plantations, reports that a
great deal of corn has been planted and
more is being put in the ground every
day.
At the next meeting of the board of
trustees DR.. Gathings will make requi-
sition for a canning factory outfit. This
will be established on the Oakley farm,
where the main hospital is located and
where the female prisoners are confined.
The surplus fruit and vegetables, of
which there is always a great quantity,
will be put up for winter use by the
convicts. Efforts are being made to
raise more and a greater variety of vege-
tables this year than ever, and the SUI
perintendent proposes to preserve them
for cold weather.
