GAYNOR BLAMED FOR VICE
Magistrate Corrigan Censures Execu-
tive for Conditions In New York
City-Says Crime Rampant.

New YOrk-In statement replying
to Magistrate Joseph E. Corrigan's
charge that crime is rampant in the
city because of police rule Mayor Gay
nor says:
This is the third time, think, that
Magistrate Corrigan has issued such
a seditious statement. They are in
tended to make the police force insub-
ordinate or Indifferent to their duty.
Il have been intrumental in having
two magistrates removed In the Brook
lyn district. and one forced to re-
sign. None OF them was guilty OF
graver misconduct, in my judgment,
than this magistrate is guilty of. 1t is
evident that shall need to take the
same course over here"
AS II to give point to Corrtgan'e
charges, J. r. Cowell, newspaper
man, was beaten and robbed in the
street by four ruff1ans while electric
lights blaxed and trolley cars passed
at frequent intervals. The highway
men escaped.
Magistrate Corrigan in his letter
voiced belief which had been grow
ing for months among settlement
workers and observant private citi-
zens.
New York Is wide open. There Ia
no doubt of it. Gambling, thieving,
strong arm" work, highway robbery,
burglary and larceny are matters Of
common daily occurrence. The excise
law is ignored in all parts of this city.

D|Az CABINET OUT.
MINISTER'S TENDER THEIR RES
DONATIONS BUT PRESIDENT
PosTPoNEs ACCEPTANCE.
CRISIS IN WAR SITUATION
General Opinion Expressed That
United States VIII intervene to
Bring About Peace-Madero's
Forces Win Victory.

Mexico City-The Diaz cabinet re-
signed In a body at a special meeting
Of that board Friday. The president
deferred action upon the designations.
The announcement brings crisis
in the Mexican war situation which
all here, official or civilian, believe can
be settled only by a miracle. That
the resignation Of the cabinet will
cause the United States to intervene
is the consensus of opinion.
The impossibility Of President Dtaz
recovering from the blow dealt him
by the desertion of his ministers, the
effect of which, coupled with the dec
larations of Finance Minister Liman-
tour prior to his resignation that re-
forms demanded by the rebels must
be brought about, Is Individually an
increase of the opposition to the Diaz
government, is declared by members
C both factions.
The reason onlcially given for the
action Of the ministers In resigning
is the belief that it will contribute to
the re-establishment Of peace and ia
cilitate the reforms which are in con-
temptation.
Preside, Notwithstanding to a
messenger who reported to Gen. Jose
de Ia Cruz Sanchez, in command OF
the insur gents besieging the town OF
Ojinaga, Friday, insurrectos under
the command of Francisco /. Madero
have won an important victory In the
vicinity Of Chihuahua, routing the fed
eral troops after 100 had been killed
and 40 taken prisoners.
Washington.-Takin cognizance OF
press reports that four Americans
had been executed by Mexican sol
diers in Chihuahua and four others at
Aqua Prieta, the state department In
structed the United States consular
officers in the vicinity of the two
places to investigate.

Arrangements Are Made for Mutual
Exchange of Recent Treaty Be-
tween Two Nations.

washington.-Respo to an in
vitation from President Taft, Baron
Uchida, the Japanese ambassador, Wis
tied the White House Wednesday and
made arrangements for the mutual ex-
change OF ratiflcations OF the recent
American-JaDanese treaty.
This function takes place at the
state department, where each of the
governments gets copy mutually
signed while third copy Is placed In
the archives.
The president sent for Baron Uchida
and the air was full of talk that the
baron had asked for explanations of
war talk and was In a belligerent
mood. Elaborate stories were printed
that the baron had called to urge upon
the president the belief that Japan
had no Interior or any other inten-
tons in Mexico.
The facts of the interview were,
however, stated by the president him
self, so that they were accepted as
they were given out. The president
desired the ambassador to felicitate
his government on its speedy ratifica-
ton of the treaty and to convey to
the mikado the assurances Of the pres
ident's official and personal regard.

AND ROB EXPRESS CAR ON
IRON MOUNTAIN ROAD.
BOOTY AMOUNTS TO $4,000
Passengers Are Terrified by FusIliade
Of Shots Fired by Robbers, But
Are Not Molested-Safe Wrecked
by NltroglyeerIn.

Coffeyville, Kan.-Six masked ban
dts held passenger train No. 104 on
the st. Louis, Iron Mountain & South
ern railway for one hour and forty
five minutes on prairie IL miles
south OF this city Friday, while they
robbed the express car safe of its val
uables.
All OF the 200 passengers remained
in the coaches and Pullman, too terri
fed by frequent rife shots and explo-
sions Of nitroglycerin even to peep
out, and members of the crew lay,
faces down, at the side of the right Of
way, guarded by one of the robbers.
After what appeared to the victims
an endless period, the lights of two
motor cars were seen to approach. A
moment later the rifle shooting
ceased. A quarter of an hour later,
when the trainmen got to their feet,
the motor cars and the robbers were
gone. 1t is believed they took money
and other valuables to the amount OF
$4,000. No passenger was robbed.
The train was leaving Lenapeh

when the fireman saw on the tender
what he believed to be tramp. He
notified the engineer, who approached
to make him get of. The tramp
produced revolver and said: I'm
going to ride little piece with you

About four miles from Lenapah, al
trestle, the leader made the en-
gineer STOP Three other masked mer
appeared and the engineer and fire
man were forced to leave the cab and
enter the Jim Grow car.
Meanwhile other robbers hat
climbed into the mail, baggage and
express cars and covered the clerks
with revolvers. The three clerks
were made to lie together beside the
track The only tidings the passen
gers had of what was going on were
the sounds of intimidating shots ant
bullets that sang by the car windows

BENZ. D. GREENE FREE
FINISHES FOUR-YEAR TERM FOR
HAR6oR COMPLETELY.
Takes Pauper's Oath Which Releases
Him From His Portion OF
$4,000 Fine.

Atlanta, Ga.-Benjamin d. Greene,
who, with John F. Gaynor, has
just completed a four-year term in
the federal prison here for completely
in the Savannah harbor improvement
frauds, was released, bringing to a
close, so far as he is concerned, legal
battle that has commanded attention
for the last decade
Greene's application for leave to
take the pauper's oath In order to es-
cape further liabilities for the $4,000
fine imposed on the two men when
they were convicted was granted ait
er a hearing which lasted two days.
John F. Gaynor, jointly convicted
with Greene, has completed his SEN
tepce in the federal prison. His ap-
plication to take the pauper's oath is
pending.
The case of the government against
Greene and Gaynor was one OF the
most unusual in the annals OF Ameri-
can Jurisprudence. More than dec
ade ago these two were engaged in a
contractual million dollar improve
ment work in Savannah harbor, under
the supervision of Capt. Oberiin M.
Carter.
Trouble began when Carter was ap-
pointed military attache at the court
OF st. James. The army officer who
succeeded him, Capt. Cassius e. Gil
lette. found evidences Of fraud in the
work, which resulted in a three
months coult-martial for Carter, a
fine, a term In Leavenworth prison,
and, ultimately, in the confiscatton by
the government Of money he was al
legged to have secured through The
harbor frauds

CIVIC CONSCIOUSNESS.

A New York lecturer IL recent ad'
dress undertook to demonstrate that
some of the practices Of immigrants
In this country, which are trouble
some to the authorities, have their or
igin in the best intentions and may
be easily corrected when the require
ments Of the American environments
are made clear to the new arrivals.
To illustrate his point he told an in
teresting story. A certain immigrant
mother of numerous offspring was
several times hailed to court and fined
for hurting her ashes into the city
street on which she lived, says the
Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin. With
philosophic submission to arbitrary
governmental tyranny she paid her
fines and went her way. Finally
q charitable person, explained to her,
In her own tongue why she should not
throw her ashes into the street. IL
then appeared that in the little Polish
village whence she came she and her
neighbors had been requested by
local authority to throw their ashes
into the road by way of impromptu
street building. Then he related
contrasting anecdote as follows:
once heard one of the founders OF the
City Club say that when he came OF
age he asked his excellent father to
give him some idea of what might be
his duties as a full-hedged citizen OF
this great city. His father replied:
MY son, as a gentleman and the son
of a gentleman, all you need know OF
municipal procedure is that in order
to have your ashes properly cared for
you must bribe the ashman."

PACKERS IN DEEAT.
FEDERAL JUDGE ovERRuLES MO-
TON TO QUASI INDICTMENTS.
Decision Denies Right Of Packers Co
Whitewash as Result OF Testi-
mony In Former Inquiry.

Chicago-Holding that the immuni-
ty granted by Judge Humphrey OF the
federal circuit court in 1906 did not
apply to the present charges, which,
he declared, were based on evidence
not included In the Humphrey de-
cision, Judge Carpenter In the United
States district court Wednesday over
ruled the demurrer filed by the indict-
ed Chicago packers and they lost their
fight against going on trial on the
indictments obtained by the govern
ment several months ago.
Judge Carpenters decision went
into the controversy relating to i'm
munity with great detail.
In brief, the packers position was
that any conspiracy that might have
existed was the plotting prior to
Judge Humphreys immunity decision,
and that the immunity from prosecu-
ton granted them extended over all
future time, so long as the acts GOV
cred by the 1906 decision remained
the same.
In deciding this, Judge Carpenter
ruled that the immunity granted
them was only for acts which had oc-
Cured prior to the date of the indict-
ment and could not pertain to any un-
lawful act which was performed after
that time. The evidence given by the
packers before the grand jury, he
said, could not relate to that which
had not occurred. and hence could
have no future application.
Following are the defendants: Louis
F. Swift, e. E. Swift, Charles f. Swift,
Francis A. Fowler, Edward Tilden, J.
| Ogden Armour, Arthur Meeker,
Thomas ]. Connors, Edward Morris.
and Louis III. Heyman.

The biggest submarine yet built is
the Seal, which was launched at New
port News, Va, the other day. She
ia classed as a cruiser" and is 131
feet long. The Seal, it is expected,
win be capable of making long trips
under water and is SO well equipped
that she will not be conveyed by a
fighting craft on the surface. as Is
now usually the case. The submarine
cruiser will be a unique addition to
the American navy. When the pro
posed aeroplanes are constructed for
the same branch of national defense
It would seem that our navy would
lack nothing for service on, under or

Telephone 'rubbering" will be dis
couraged in New Hampshire should a
bill pending in the Legislature become
a law. This measure provides a pen
atty of SO for each offense when a
person breaks in on a telephone con-
yersation. 1t is aimed especially at
the listeners" on party wires, whose
curiosity leads them into attempting
to hear talk NOT intended for their
ears. The practice is not confined to
New Hampshire, but it will be inter
esting to observe the degree of sue
cess attained In the Granite State in
dealing with the offense.
