In similar fashion the resignation
of Vice-President Corral, now in
France. was unanimously accepted
and similarly Senior de la Barra,
recently ambassador to Washington,
was chosen provisional president.
Senior de la Barra took the oath OF
office at noon Friday in the Yello W
Parlor of the National Palace.
Of scarcely less popular interest
than the resignation was the assump-
ton of military control of the fed
eral district by Alfredo Robes
Dominguez. Madero's personal repre-
sentative, insuring the handling of
popular demonstrations by leader
of the new regime.
Personally, Dominguez commands
only small body of local rebels,
but the federal garrison is under or
ders to make no move whatsoever
without bis approval Senior Dom
inguez said that he could bring 5000
organized rebel troops into the city
within three hours. Their baggage
and horses are aboard trains, fur
nished by the government, at Cuer-
navaca, Pachucia and Tlalnepantla.

GRANT BARRED FROM PULPIT
Presbyterian Assembly Accepts Report
Finding Him Guilty.

Atlantic City, n. J.-Rev. DR.. Will
liam d. Grant, of Northumberland,
Pa, has been found guilty of heresy
by the commission which heard the
charges made against him. The
commission submitted it's report to
the Presbyterian General Assembly
and it was adopted without debate by
an overwhelming vote.
The report found that DR.. Grant
taught doctrines contrary to the
word of God in the Bible and the
Presbyterian Confession of Faith"
He is held to be guilty under the
rules of the Presbyterian Book of
Discipline, and the commission
recommended that DR.. Grant be sus-
pended from exercising the functions
of a minister of the Presbyterian
Church until such time as che can
convince his own Presbytery, that of
Northumberland, that he has re-
nounced the errors he has been found
to hold and to satisfy the Presbytery
of his purpose to no longer teach
them"

TAFT TO SCOTCH CHURCH
Hopes For Arbitration and That
Canada Will Fly Flag
Of Bri ain.

Edinburgh.-A message from
President Taft, in which he pleads
for international arbitration treaties
as method of abolishing war and
hopes that Canada will continue to
prosper and fly the British flag" was
read before the General Assembly
of the Church of Scotland by Rev.
The message follows
st is the sincerest desire of my
life to see the two great sections of
the English-speaking races join in a
treaty of unlimited arbitration which
will make wars forever more improb-
able. There is no question of nat
ional honor nor interest that can
ever arise between the Mother Coun-
try and the United States which can
not, with dignity and in a practical
manner, lead to Independent judicial
arbitration without resorting to war
1T is our sincerest desire that
Canada shall continue to prosper and
fly the British flag, sharing with the
United States the responsibility for
North American progress. 1t is my
confident hope that the treaty will
prepare the way for wider and more
peaceful relations among all nations
and bring into reality the days fore
told by the ancient prophets, when
nations shall not lift the sword
against nation, neither shall they
learn war any more.

Mexico City.-President Porfirio
Diaz, in a letter read by the presi-
dent of the Chamber of Deputies,
Thursday afternoon resigned the
presidency of the Republic of Mex
leo, and at 4:54 o'clock the accept
ance OF the resignation by the Cham
Der of Deputies was announced.
Vice President Ramon Corral's
resignation was also accepted, and
Minister of Foreign Affairs Francisco
Leo De La Barra was chosen Pro-
visional President to serve until a
general election can be held.
Everyone had expected an uproar
when the announcement should be
made. but within the chamber the
words announcing the event were fol-
lowed by silence. The deputies
seemed awed by what had taken
place.
In the streets, black with people,
the news that Dtaz was no longer
the president was the signal for wild
shouting and manifestations. There
was no violence or destruction of
property.
On the motion to accept the Presi-
dents resignation 167 deputies voted
aye, while no expression was made by
Benito Juarez, descendant of Presi-
dent Juarez, and Conception del
Vale. AS their names were called
all other legislators rose and bowed
their affirmation

BIG WARSH|P IS
PUT OVERHEARD
The Latest Dreadnought in Her
Element.
VESSEL $50 FEET LONG.
Fighting Ship Christened by Miss
Knight in the Presencs of
Many Guests From
Wyoming.

Philadelphia.-In the presence of
the Governor and a delegation of
visitors from the State for which it
was named, Miss Dorothy Eunice
Knight, daughter of former Chief
Justice Jesse Knight, of Wyoming,
christened the battleship Wyoming,
the nations latest Dreadnought,
when the warship was launched at
the yards of the Cramp Ship and
Engine Company in this city.
Governor j. NJ. Carey, of Wyoming,
several officials of the State, together
with Secretary Meyer of the Navy
Department and other naval officials
were among those on the launching
stand when the big battleship slid
into the Delaware river.
When the Wyoming gets in full
armament she will not be surpassed
by any fighting ship in the world
The length over all is $50 feet,
breadth at the water line SO feet ano
displacement $4,000 tons. The big
battleship will have a speed of 20 y
knots an hour The coal capacity
will be $500 tons, and the ship will
carry oil burners in case of emer-
gency.
The Wyomings armament will
consist of II 12-inch guns, 81 s.
inch guns, fo1r 3-pounders, saluting
guns, two 1-pounder semi-automatic
guns, two 3-inch field pieces, two 80
caliber machine guns and two sub
merged torpedo tubes.
The battleship is little more than
one-third completed 1t will carry
Sd officers and 1000 enlisted men.
The Wyoming is one of six first
class battleships under construction
at different yards. When the whole
number is completed another fleet
will be added to the navy which will
be stronger in fighting strength than
the entire American Navy at the end
of the Spanish-American War.

fight. To their surprise the outlaw
offered no resistance, but surrendered
at their command His trial was
speedy and less than week after his
capture he began serving term in
San Quentin prison
When Miner was released he left
California as rapidly as possible. The
wilder country of Colorado offered
greater attractions. In this new fSeld
of operation his methods were the
same as in the old.
Miner and two others On November
7, 1881, reappeared in California after
an absence of twelve years, held up
the stage that ran from Sonora, Tue
lumne county, to Milton and secured
$4,000 in cash and gold dust.
Two of the gang were quickly
caught. Miner managed to elude the
officers for several weeks, but was
finally run to earth. The trial was
brief and justice severe. The three
robbers were sent to San Quentin pris-
OIL for % years.
1t was 1901, 20 years later, before
"Old Bill" Miner could again breathe
the air free man. By good behavior
he cut his sentence five years and the
authorities believed that when he
walked cut of San Quentin his days
as an outlaw were ended. But they
we're mistaken.
Toward the close of 1903 the author
tiles of Oregon were startled by TIE
hold-up of an express train on the
Oregon Railway and Navigation COM
pany's line at Milepost No. 81, near
Corbett, Oregon. A year later the Ca
uadian Pacific's transcontinnetal ex-
press was stopped at Mission juno
ton, British Columbia, by lone ban
dit. who with cold and deliberate
nerve compelled the express messen-
ger to open the safe, which contained
close to $4,000.
Less than two years later, on May
10, 1906, at eleven O'Clock in the night,
Miner and two pals robbed the trans
continental express of the Canadian
Pacific railway near Durrer, B. c.
For this crime he was sent for life
to the penitentiary at New Westmin-
ster and at once began planning an
escape. With two companions, who
were confined in the brickyard OF the
prison, he tunneled to freedom and
nothing more was heard of him until
last February, when one night train
Oh the Southern railroad was held up
and the Pinkertons at once concluded
from the nature of the job that Old
Bill Miner was at work again. They
were not mistaken and few days
later Miner and two companions, his
pals in the hold-up, were taken pris-
oners. Miner, now sixty-nine years
old. will be eighty-nine when his term
of service expires, and 1t is probable
that the end has been reached in his
stormy and picturesque career.
