WANTS WAR WITH
MEXICO DECLARED
CHICAGO DOCTOR BEGINS RE.
MARkABLE LEGAL PROCEED
iNGS IN WASHINGTON.
ASKS TAFT Be BROUGHT into COURT
Would Compel President to Tell Why
He Does Not Inform Congress OF
Certain Things Now Hap.
pening in Capital.

Washington, d. CDR. James Ed
ward Buckley of Chicago has be-
gun in the district supreme court the
most remarkable legal proceeding on
record. He asks that President Taft
be brought into court and compelled to
tell just why he does not inform con-
gress of certain things which are now
happening in Washington. In effect he
has begun action to compel the United
States to declare war on Mexico, not
by way of Intervention, but by con-
quest. Doctor Buckley claims to rep
resent many American residents in
the City of Mexico. In the story of
the Mexican revolution, which is re-
cited in his petition, he calls the Diaz
administration a "Wall street export
ing agency" He speaks of Henry
Taft as chief attorney for this export
ing agency The petition goes on to say:
Seemingly at every stage of this
revolution the defendant handicapped
and embarrassed the insurgent party,
which was under the command of
Senior DR.. Francisco !. Madero, to wit:
mobilizing an army on the frontier,
threatening invasion and interven-
ton; attempting the blockade of all
Mexican ports-Gulf and Pacific-rul-
ing and reversing his ruling on the
custom house question relative to the
city of JuareZ, thereby enraging the
Indians of Mexico and causing a wide
spread anti-foreign feeling, tanning
the flames of revolution, which has
precipitated choatic state in the land
of the AZtecs.
prisons have been thrown open
and their inmates roam the land, vii
lagos and cities attacked, robbed and
sacked, murder, pillage and rapine, as
reported to Mexico City, and which
should have come to the department
of state, was, and but recently has
been, the attitude of these people. So
also since the termination of the rev.
olution sporadic outbursts have been
brought on through the agency of in
visible heads, resulting in war, de.
struction of property, murder and as.
sault upon great many women"
Speaking of the Wall street end OF
the revolution the petition asserts that
the Mexican situation has been dove
tailed with American money interests.

PLANS GENERAL INQUIRY
CONGRESS TO PROBE couNTRY's
INDUSTRIAL SYSTEM.
Martin w. Littleton Declares That
Such an Investigation Is contem-
plated--Perkins Pleased,

Washington, d. C.-Congress will
soon authorize thorough investiga-
ton into the Industrial system in this
country with an idea of bringing labor
and capital closer together, of curb
ing the lawless tendencies of big busi-
ness interests and finding way to
correct the evils of our present sys-
tenn. Congressman Martin w. Little
ton declared that such an investiga-
ton is contemplated. He made the
statement at the steel hearing immedi-
ately after George w. Perkins, noted
financier, had said on the stand that
he thought government commission
which would insure focusing the lime
light of publicity on the business affairs
of great corporations would do much
to eradicate present day trust evils.
81 am advised" said Mr.. Littleton,
that there is to be q thorough in
quiry into all the commercial ills of
the nation, and that conference will
of how to deal with the industrial
situation in America"
THAT is the best news / have
heard" said Mr.. Perkins.
Perkins had made his suggestions
in response to question by Bartlett.
II believe the mere question of
limelight an important thing" said
Perkins. "The limelight firmly think
would eradicate many of our troubles.
If we had law providing that a cor
poration engaged in interstate busi-
ness could register itself with bu-
reau here in Washington, submitting
its operations, it's prices, it's balance
sheets, it's methods, it's treatment of
labor, ETC., and that if these reports
were made public, thus gaining the
confidence of the public in the securi-
ties of that corporation, the confidence
of the competitor that he was being
fairly treated, and the confidence of
the consumer that he was being fairly
dealt with think that very soon all
corporations would register them
selves and we would have that kind of
publicity which would go a long
way to eradicate the evils of our great
corporations and preserve the good
that already is selfevident in these
corporations.

Fury of Masked Throns at
coatesvllIe, Pa.

Coatesville, PA frenzied mob
Of 400 masked men battered down
the doors and windows OF the
Coatesville hospital, dragged Ezekiel
Walker, negro charged with killing
Special Officer Edgar Rice here, man
acled to his bed, out of the hospital,
through the streets and to the edge of
the town, where they burned him, still
manacled to the bed.
Police and hospital attendants, were
beaten aside by the mob in their des-
perate efforts to get the negro. The
lynching, which outhorrors the worst
of the Ku Klux days, and which was
consummated in a town only so miles
from Philadelphia, was only accom-
plished after the negro, writhing in
pain had leaped off the blazing fire
which the mob had built over him,
and struggled to escape with the bed
to which he was bound and which
was sending up flames all around him.
Two thousand persons gathered and
watched the leaders of the mob beat
the negro over the head with fence
rails and force him and his bed back
to the funeral pyre. Three times did
the negro try to escape with the bed
and three times the crowd prodded
him with fence rails, which were sunk
into his flesh, already scorched and
hanging from the bones until finally
the negro fell into the fire and strug-
gled no more. Only then was the mob
satisfied The flames died down and
went out The masked men walked
back to the town, and half hour later
they had disappeared as rapidly as
they had gathered.
Had Tried Suicide.
Walker, the negro victim of the
lynching, had shot himself earlier in
the evening in an effort to cheat the
crowd of armed men who were search
ing for him with guns.
After the news of the murder of
Special Officer Rice, favorite with
the workers of the iron foundries,
had spread about the town, men
started to search for the negro charg-
ed with the shooting. Then the armed
searchers surrounded Walker, who
had taken refuge in a tree, the negro
pulled gun and shot himself through
| the mouth. The men took him to the
Coatesville hospital, evading a mob
which already gathered and threaten
ing violence.

Persons who are suffering from one
of these creatures become nervous weak
and irritable, and tire at the least ex-
ertlon The tape worms rob one of am
bition and vitality and strength, but they
are rarely fatal.
THE victim of this disease is apt to
stomach trouble, and doctors for years
without relief. This is not the fault OF
the physicians he consults. for there is
no absolute diagnosis that will tell posi-
lively that one is not a victim of tape
worm.
''The most common symptom Of this
trouble is an abnormal appetite. At
times the person is ravenously hungry
and cannot get enough to eat. At other
times the very sight of food is loathsome.
