SENATE COMMITTEE SAYS NEW
BUILDINGS ARE BAD.

The senate committee on public
lands and buildings have fled a 70
port asking for an investigation OF
tie construction of state buildings
that have been recently erected at
the different state institutions. 1t re-
ports that it found a frightful waste
of state funds and the committee ex.
presses its indignation when speak.
ing of the architecture. construction
and business management in the con-
struction of buildings. In order that
the blame may be laid to the proper
source. it asks for an investigation.
The committee also severely con-
demns the management of the state
industrial school for boys at Kearney.
A most deplorable condition. is what
the committee calls il. In the opinion
Of the committee the school as now
conducted is of no advantage or help
to the boys kept there and it recon-
mends that il the state cannot get
better results the institution should
be abolished both in the interests Of
the state and Of the boys. and some
ether arrangements be made for the
training and education of the boys.
This is the only institution whose
management is condemned by the
committee

Was FATAL DEFECT
HOUSE INITIATIVE AND REFER.
ENDUM BILL NO GOOD.
Friends Found After lts Passage That
Peculiar Wording Made One
Provision Impossible But
Fact Not Revealed.

Now that the initiative and referen.
dunn has been agreed upon by both
houses of the legislature in the form
in which it will be submitted at the
next general election. it has become
known that the Hatfield initiative and
referendum bill which passed the
house and was then sidetracked for
the Skiles bill contained an error
which would have made it absolutely
vaiueless as a means of securing d.
rect legislation if it had been submit
ted and adopted by the people.
Only few members of both houses
were aware of this fatal error in the
Hatfield bill, and they kept it a secret
1t. however, accounted in a measure
for the fact that the supporters of the
propositions embodied in the Hatfield
bill did not make any effort to push it
forward for the consideration of the
senate.

date are S2.O00.O0O more than last

date, however. have been only about

little more than $1,000, 600.

CABINET STEPS OUT
PRESIDENT OlAZ' ADVISERS TEN
DER RESERVATIONS.
MOVEMENT TOWARDS PEACE
Chief Executive Postpones Statement
as to the Action He Will Take
in the Matter.

Mexico City.-The Diaz cabinet re
signed Friday. Following a meeting
| of that body at o'clock in the after
noon every minister rendered his re
signatiOn to General DiaZ. As yet none
of the designations have been accept
ed. but on excellent authority 1t is
said but two of the ministers. and
asked to remain.
In diplomatic circles and among
high government officials it is as
sumed that General Diaz will insist on
Senior Limantour remaining in charge
OF the Department of Finance.
Members of the cabinet refuse to
comment upon their action. but it is
said semi-officially that the initiative
was taken. not by them. but by the
president, who. it is believed here,
proposes TO surround himself with
younger men in tine hope that such ac-
ton will serve to unite all elements
of the nation.
1t is probably that the acceptance
of the designations will be cOincident
with the announcement OF the names
OF the new ministers. This announce
ment may not be made for some days.
Who will compose the new cabinet
is not publicly known, but it may be
said they will be men who have not
taken a leading part in the govern
ment affairs. Neither will it include
any who have been identified with the
revolutionary movement instituted by
Madero.
Included in the designations was
that OF Ramon Corral as minister OF
gobernacion. a department CORE
spOnd to the Department Of the In
terror i'm the United States. but not
as vice president. 1t is reliably re-
ported that the vice president will
sail on April IL for Europe.
The announcement of the cabinet
changes has revived the rumor that
General DiaZ has recalled General
Reyes from Europe. but this could not
be substantiated tonight.
The reason given for the action in
an official announcement is the belief
that il will contribute to the re-estab-
lishment of peace and facilitate the re-
forms which are in contemplation.
Enrique c. Creel. minister of for
eIgn relations. presented the resigna-
lions in behalf of all G: the ministers.
General Diaz thanked the retiring
members for their efficient and patri-
otto cooperation in the past and an
nounced he would postpone his &C.
ceptance or rejection until later.
The three men against whom the
masses have cried 'Old age are
Fernandez, Justine Fernan-
dez and General CosiO. In former
years the men have accomplished
much in the respective Offices; but
it is an open secret that for the last |
three or four years their duties have |
been materially lightened by subor-
linates.
News of the resignation spread rap |
idly throughout the city. In all quar-
ters it elected favorable comment. A
change in the cabinet was
one OF the things wanted by the revo-
utionists and had il occurred several
months ago. say rebel sympathizers
here. it is not at all improbable the re-
'olt might have been averted.
