the Department of Commerce and La
Dor, and Herbert Knox Smith, director
of the Bureau OF Corporations, in
formed the committee of the facts

Of the Steel Corporation for several
months.
Because of the fact that much Of the
information rendered by the department
would hamper the Government in pur-
suing its investigation, Secretary Nagel
and his assistant were permitted to give
their testimony at an executive session
OF the committee. 1t was announced
that the testimony Of these two Gov
eminent officials will be supplemented
at an earl ydate by some important in
formation now in the possession of At

Judson a protest against the build
ing of a Government stable in square
between z and G and Thirteenth and
Fourteenth streets, southeast. me
Commissioners have obtained an
option on the square and are pre-
pairing to erect a stable for the ac-
commodation Of between 80 and 100
horses! Residents of the neighbor-
hood are up in arms against the pro-
ject, declaring that ii will result In
the deterioration of the value or the
surrounding property and prove
menace to. the health of that section
of the city. AS an alternate site

Maderists Satisfied.
While it is generally recognized that
de la Barra will be as unsatisfactory
to the Madero sympathizers as Diaz.
because he is a member of his cabinet,
the Madero representatives say they are
satisfied. He only is TO serve until elections
can be held to select a new president.
The Madero sympathizers claim 90 per
cent of the people are with them.
AS to the claims of many people that
the fires of instruction which have been
started in so many, places cannot be
wiped out by the declaration of Ma
dero that the war is at an end, his
representatives here say that the people
making those claims are not CONVEX
SAINT with the situation. They claim to
have repeated assurances from Figueroa
that he is with Madero in everything
and that he will heed his instructions.
The fact that there have been battles
after an armistice has been declared Is
attributed to the inability TO transmit
messages rapidly. The Madero SYM
pathizers say that couriers are often
mistrusted and the messages they carry
are sometimes considered but tricks or
