Gentlemen-TheK ona Tobacco Com.
pany, Limited, and w. r. Castle
strongly protest against the issuance
OF any license for the sale of intoXi
eating liquors to John de Mello at Keo

honorable board in the interest Of
these people that the license be not

NEUTRALITY VIOLATED.
Troops Sent by U. S. to Guard Mexican
Border.

Determined that the territory of the
United States shall not be used as a
base of revolutionary expeditions
against Mexico, the Washington gov
eminent has taken steps to increase
materially the American military and
customs forces guarding the frontier.
The secretary of war issued orders
more than trebling the soldiers guard
ing the border line, and the secretary
of the treasury authorized the collec-
tor of customs at Ell Paso, Texas, to
appoint ten additional deputy collec
tors of customs in order to establish
more effective survey of smugglers.
1t is understood that these orders were
issued by direction of the president
upon representations from the Next
can embassy that the neutrality of the
United States was being violated
Secretary Dickinson directed that
the military patrol of the border be in
creased by six troops of cavalry from
Fort Sam Houston, Texas, detach-
ments of mounted infantry from Forts
Whipple, Ariz., and Wingate, N. NJ.
The army officers have been instructed
to cooperate with the marshals of the
department of justice and the customs
officials of the treasury department
stationed along the border.

AUTHOR SHOT
IN NEW YORK
David Graham Phillips Shot
Six Times.
ASSASSIN THEN KILLS SELF.
GoIdsborough, the AssaiIant of Phil.
lips, Was Member of a Prominent
Washington Family and a Graduate
of Princeton.

David Graham Phillips, editor, pub
licist and novelist, was shot six times
as he approached the Princeton Club
in New York by Fitzhugh Coyle Colds
borough, Harvard man, who imme
diately after committed suicide. Phil
lips was taken to Bellevue hospital in
an extremely critical condition, but
, as relatives hopefully express 1t, with
chance for life"
The body of Goldsborough, whose
career at Harvard was brief, was ia,
ken to the morgue. Apparently insane,
he had a fancied grudge against the
author and sought his life. He was
only 81 years old; Phillips is 43.
There you go" snapped the assail.
ant as he opened fire, "and here | 20"
he echoed as he sent bullet into his
own brain.
He used ten-shot 3S-caliber auto.
matte pistol, and all six shots aimed
at Phillips took effect. One of the
shots perforated the abdomen, another
pierced the right lung and came out at
the back, third shattered the left
wrist and fourth drilled the right
thigh. Two of them dropped from the
wounded mans clothing as he was be
ing undressed at the hospital.
Fitzhugh Goldsborough was a mem
Der of a prominent Washington family
That he was insane at the time OF
the shooting is the general belief.

purchases

Aviator Garros Has Thrilling Expe.
rience Trying For Record.

Roland B. Garros was lost in the
clouds for ten minutes at Houston
Texas. He was trying for an altitude
record and disappeared ~ minutes af
ter ascending. Then for ten minutes
he explained after alighting, he dart
ed about in space about 1000 feet in
the air. From the ground his mono
plane was invisible even to field
glasses.
Eventually he appeared, a mere
speck against the sky, five miles from
aviation field and headed in an oppo.
site direction. Finally Garros located
the ground and came to earth in a
spectacular glide to a perfect landing.
81 was lost" Garros declared. 81
could not see the ground. When the
earth did come within my vision, did
not know my direction and the coun.
try for miles around seemed nothing
but level plains"
Approaching darkness caused Garros
to abandon his attempt for an altitude
record.

quor to be sold in towns having a pop

govern the sale of liquor, under the

Already the lines are forming fol-

which is in the largest county in the
state, is said to oppose the bill, be
cause Birmingham wants a dispensary
Other cities that are included within
its provisions have asked for dispen

ONE FOR CONVICTION.
But Twelfth Man Thought Woman
Guilty and Blocked AcquittaI-Wom-
ans Attorneys VIII Seek to Have
Her Released From Jail.

After struggling for more than
twenty-four hours with a mass of
technical and sensational testimony,
the jury in the case of Mrs. Laura
Farnsworth Schenk, charged with poi
soning her husband, John o. Schenk
announced at Wheeling w. Va, they
were hopelessly divided and could not
reach a verdict. Judge L. S. Jordan
importuned them to further efforts, but
finally discharged them from the case.
Mrs. Schenk is again in Jail, despite
her hopes that she would be free wo-
man upon the verdict of the jury.
The final vote taken by the jury af-
Ter the long session stood eleven for
acquittal and one for conviction. On
the first ballot, taken within five min
utes after the jury retired, eight voted
for acquittal, three for conviction and
one juryman refused to vote.
On the second ballot there were nine
votes for acQuittal and three for CON
viction. From this status the number
of those standing by an acquittal YER
dict was gradually worked up to
eleven.
The one juror who prevented a YER
dict was Isaac Heyman, salesman for
a local provision company From the
start he held that the accused was
guilty of the crime with which she
was charged, and it was finally recog-
nized that there was absolutely no

TRADE RECIPROCITY.
United States Reaches Agreement
With Canada,


Within less than ten months after
the initiation by President Taft of ne.
gotiations .Jh the Canadian govern.
ment, there was laid simultaneously
before the American congress at Wash.
ington and the Canadian parliament at
Ottawa a reciprocity arrangement
which, if approved by the legislative
branches of the two governments, will
surely 40 much, in the opinion of the
negotiatCrs, to enlarge and Iiberalize
the trade between the United States
and Canada.
Usually such arrangements take the
form of treaty, but in the present
instance this was not done, with the
result that considerable time will be
saved in the consummation of the
agreement, which can be made effect
i've by simple majority vo,e in each
of the two legislatures. In the case of
treaty it would be necessary in the
United States, at least, to have the an.
proval Of a full two-thirds of the sen
ate, but now the way is clear for the
ways and means committee of the
house and the finance committee of
the senate to proceed as it would with
any tariff bill.
