CASE NOT OVER YET

Seattle, Wash. h.-Judge King Dyke
man in superior court this morning
decided that sons in South Dakota,
and not Mrs. Bessie +. Wood, tho

right to bury the body Of Chauncey5
L. Wood. democratic leader Of South
Dakota and the last democratic can
didate for governor of South Dakota.
Mr.. Wood died here on January l6.s
and his body has since been in tho
undertaking establishment OF q. r.
Butterworth & Sons. It will remain
there indefinitely. as H. A. p. Ny
ers, attorney for Mrs. Wood, will ap-S
peal to the state supreme court.
Old Story Of stepmother.
Six years after the death OF his
first wife Wood welded again in
1894, and the old story is told Of dif-
ferences between children and STEP
mother.
The arguments Of counsel, almost
concluded last evening when court
adjourned, circled round the Ques-
tion whether the authority OF the
widow is paramount and supercedes5
the expressed wishes of the dead.
Two sons OF the frst wife, Benja-
min M. and Buel A.. have reached
young manhood, and controversies
ensued after Woods second marriage
resulting in the two boys leaving
home.
The boy Benjamin, on the witness
stand yesterday. spoke with tears OF
the strong affection between His fath-S
er and himself, while the stepmothef
described him as troublesome boy,
whose conduct brought about stern
rebuke and displeasure from the
father.
Many bitter words were passed,
recrimination and reproach, and in
the meantime the body of Chauncey
l.. Wood, one-time candidate for the
governorship of South Dakota, re-
mains unburied, while ten weeks
have slipped away.

PEACE TALK

Insurgents Outline Terms on
Which They Would Give

DIAZ MUST ANNUL
HIS RECENT ELECTION

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
Ell PASO, Texas, March IA state
ment issued by Gonzales Cara, Mexi-
can revolutionary secretary of State,
outlining the terms which would be
acceptable to the insurgents in the
field, is interpreted by many here as
indicating that President Diaz may
have made overtures to Francisco
Madero looking to settlement of ex-
isting difficulties. The fact that Jose
Limantour. Mexican minister OF
Finance, is speeding towards the
border, 'in response to important
secret messages" is believed in some
quarters to be connected with the re-
ported peace plans.
MadrO. with one thousand troops,
is hurrying northward and will be
Joined enrOute by General Orozco aud

means "a new movement against
Juarez cannot be ascertained, but the
belief is growing that Madero is NOV
ing towards the border where he Will
be in a more vital position to negou-
ate should President Diaz see mt to
press peace terms on him.
Before peace can be considered,
Cara declared, Diaz must nullify the
1910 election and submit his candid
acy to a new general, free election by
all the people of Mexico. If Diaz
is then elected, he added. the in
surgents will accept him.
