REFUSE TO MAKE STATEMENTS
Are Met by Secretary of Local Junta

mander.

Ell PASO Tex, April 3.--Interest here IN
the Mexican war situation today centers
in Francisco /. Madero, ST., and Alfonso
Madero, who arTfVea In 81 Peso last night,
presumably on missienAof peace. rrf.-
while maintaining a complete silence
regarding the reason for their presence
here, the father and brother OF the insur-
recto leader intimated that Developments
might be expected within the next few
days and Il is believed they are to await
the arrival Of messengers upon which he
will consent to a cessation of hostilites.
That these terms mast be formulated by
the men who are in the field was declared
by Alfonso Madero last night.
That the elder Maderos influence viii be
strongly for peace is the statement of
those who claim to know his attitude Tho
father of the insurrecto leader, It is said,
has never given the movement his whole
hearted support and would welcome the
end of the war upon any reasonable terms.
Courlers who left for the insurrecto chiefs $
camp near Chihuahua few days ago are
now believed to have carried messages from
the elder Madero, and these, it is surmised,
urged the son to make for peace
Both Refuse 20 Talk.
To reporters the two Maderos refused
to make any statements. Asked II he had
come here on a mission of peace. the senior
Madero said Perhaps So / will tell
you later"
Replying to a question as to when he had
last seen his son, Francisco. he said:
Il have not seen him since he left San
Antonio three months ago or more"
Gonzales Garza lnsurrecto secretary OF
state met the two Maderos and accom-
panied them to their hotel, where a confer
ence began at once.
For some time Cara has been declaring
that he did not believe in the peace rumors
So far as can be learned, there are no
representatives here Of tho federal gov
ernment The local insurrecto junta Is
supposed to be in communication by courier
with Francisco Madero who is with the
/ army near chihuahua.
In an interview last night following the

VIII Amend Petition.

As result Of the decisions, the lower
court will now allow the government TO
amend Its petition in the Lehigh Valley
Railroad case. A different situation arises
In regard to the Erie, the Central of New
Jersey and the Pennsylvania.
In these cases the government did NOT
ask FOR leave to amend, considering the
Lehigh Valley suit test case. II was
asked that the court dismiss the Erie.
Central and Pennsylvania cases without
prejudice, but this was refused and the
circuit court dismissed the cases.
The dismissal was today approved nv
the supreme court. Ordinarily this would
preclude the government bringing new
suits against these railroads Govern
ment officials tonight expressed doubt as
to whether further proceedings could be
taken against the Erie, Central and Penn
sylvania. but an investigation viii be made
with view to renewing the action against
them If possible,

Maine is furnishing varying re-
ports from its recent "wet" and
"dry" election. Now comes. the
story that complete official returns
from the special election when Maine
voted on the question of the repeal
of the constitutional prohibitory
amendment, @ canvassed by the
Governor and Council, showed ma
iority of 26 votes in favor of re-
peal. Various discrepancies were
md in the official returns as
compared with the tabulations COM
piled by the Secretary of States
Office The latter indicted major
ity for repeal of 1876" Maybe wher
another recount is made the "drys'
will have it. Let US hope so.

Says the Dover State News:
"Some of the Dupont road knockers
would not have knocked the railroad
in 1850 as they are DuPont's road in
1911. 1t makes US wonder why po-
litical rancor should be drawn into
the boulevard until DUPONT or his
associates do it. And why should we
hurry him, if he is spending his
own money? If his road is farce
the longer he delays it the better
for the State. When a man as
citizen does big thing, every good
citizen should pat him on the back
for that thing, and if he is opposed
to him politically, on election day
he should go vote against him. We
never knew Delaware had so many
men picked EEin politics. Unless
they pray for a complete change of
heart, some men can only fill one
place acceptably in this wOrld-a
grave.

The burglar will always be about
seeking for a chance to rob, and
the police problem is how to reduce
the ranks of these thieves to min
imum and make their work so dang
erous that few men will dare to un-
dertake it. Carelessness and for
getfulness on the part of the house
keeper make the work of these gen.
try far easier than it would other
wise be. The police generally dc
the best they can, but they would
do far better were not the burglar:
offered so many golden opportunities
for the work they are always 81
ready to do.

With the arrival of the new street
sweeper, Main Street is showing a
decidedly more cIeanly appearance.
This work is being done so exped-
itely that Supervisor Turner and his
helpers are able to devote more time
to other streets. We are glad to
note this improvement 50 far as it
goes. but Commerce street never
VIII be riean until the Street Com
mittee authorizes the mud and dirt
scraped off the macadam surface.
This by all means should be done.
Then and not till then will the
street cleaning impetus, so far as
Commerce street is concerned, count
for much.

urday-- -JHrOrS Struggled Over Evidence For
Seven HOIrS-- First Ballot Stood for COlViC-
tiOn and 5 for ACquittaI- Trial Lasted Flu
Week,

After ono OF the most intcrcstIn-
trials ever held iu Marion county AL
mon Tutue was found guilty of att
tempting 10 criminally assault Miss
E'lora Spiccl the night OF July o.
1911. I'm the vicinity OF the Big -Four
freight house.
The trial lasted from Monday m-
til just a few minutes before midnight
saturday when the jury returned 70
verdict of guilty against Tuttle Tho
prisoner had been brought into court
and was very nervous as hc awaited
the formal reading OF the verdict by
Clerk Klinefeltcr. As the finding was
read and Tuttle learned his fate, so
far as the present trial is concerned,
his face flushed and the tears camo
10 his eyes. but I'm u moment hc had
himself under control again and ha
no comment to make as ha was rec
turned to jain. there to await sentence.
The penalty for his crime is im9rison-
ment In the penitenuary for from
one s. fifteen years.
The case was submitted To- the jury
shortly after o'clock saturday after
noon and for seven hours the Jurors
struggled with the mass OF evidence
that had been submitted. The first
ballot stood seven for conviction and
nve for acquittA ana the remainins
seven hours vas spent I'm bringing
over those i've jurors who were doubt
ful.
During the last two days of the
trial the court room was litgr1Ily
packed with spectators. the very clos-
Get attention being given the evidence.
The general impression prevailed thar
futile would be convicted though In
many quarters "a disagreement was
looked for. Tutue is also under in-
