Taft to Extend
His Jersey Trip

wAsHlNGTo Mny % -one of the
first things Mr.. Taft did when he reached
the White House, after hearing the re-
suit In Ohio. was to arrange for an ex-
tension of his trip in New Jersey so that
he will be campaigning in that State un-
til an hour before the polls open at L
o. clock Tuesday. On the original sched-
ule the President would have finished in
Atlantic City Monday night. The exten-
sion Of the trip was said today by Mr..
Taft's supporters to be an indication
that he has determined to fight Colonel
Roosevelt to the end.
Plans for the trip TO New Jersey, al
though not complete, show that the Pres
ident will visit every one Of the twelve
congressional districts and practically
every county in the State. He will leave
Washington early tomorrow morning,
will make an address at the international
navigation congress in Philadelphia in
the afternoon and formally open the New
Jersey campaign at Camden tomorrow
night.

While Ii is strongly intimated that poll

1908, and who was the widow of Andrew

ago and Mr.. Fort and Edwin G. Adams,
of this city, his co-executor, were dis
charged
1t was intimated that the will would
be contested at the time 1t was probated,
but no action was taken. The action of
the Warmers now to attempt to upset
the settlement is virtually an attack on
the bequest received by the former Gov
ernor
II does not appear why the matter
should he brought up at this time. Mr..
Fort refused to discuss the matter and
Adrian Riker, his attorney, showed a
great display of anger when questioned
about the matter.
No word of explanation and no word
concerning the action of the Warmers
could be obtained from him.
1t WAS said at the Office of Edwin G.

Newark to Be

Newark is destined 10 become the
great commercial centre of the United
States
This statement was made by j. Bleecls-
er Miller before the board of engineers
of the bureau of harbor improvements

The engineers were inqniring into tn.

urged them 10 lay aside all plans for i'm.
proyements of the harbor and devote
their time to improving Newark bay
This prediction that Newark would niti-

speech, Mayor Gaynor. of New York,

CHARLES HAMILTON
BREAKS A WORLDS RECORD

SACRAMENTO, March 3O.-With a
vicious wind at his back, Charles K.
Hamilton, king of birdmen, winged
Touthward to Stockton last evening,
breaking the worlds aeroplane speed
record. He negotiated the distance
52.7 miles-in twenty-three minutes
averaging 1876 miles an hour. And
death trailed him every inch of the
way. The wind was blowing out of the
north at the rate of twenty-nine miles
an hour when the aviator, ignoring the
pleas of his wife and the protests OF
friends and his mechanicians, went
into the air in his Curtis biplane at
Agricultural park, circled the track
once to make sure of his engine, then
turned andd shot toward Stockton, his
craft rocking like a ship in the trough
of the sea.
1t was 5.45 o'clock when Hamilton
left the park At 6 .OS he alighted in

1900 feet, having at that height an
estimated wind velocity of forty miles

NEW YORK, April "A Washing
ton special says that following a
meeting of the cabinet today, an ulti-
matum was served on President Ma
dero demanding that he give adequate
protection to the railway line between
Vera Cruz and Mexico City, so that
arms and ammunition due tomorrow
can be delivered to American citizens
in the capital.
This ultimatum was embodied in a
comprehensive cablegram to Ambas-
sador Wilson instructing him to report
at once on the railway conditions. 1t
was stated specifically that any strike
that might interfere with the delivery
of arms to Americans must be ended
by force.
If President Madero is not able to
keep upen the line between Vera Cruz
and Mexico, he has been informed that
the gravest consequences will ensue.
Interpreted by army officers in Wash
ington, this is taken to mean that
United States forces will keep the line
open for him.
Illustrating the determination of the
United States to insure the delivery OF
these arms, it was admitted today that
the four transports-the Fitzpatrick
Meade, Sumner and McClellan-are
now fully coaled at Hampton Roads
ready to take $500 troops aboard at a
moments notice, should it be found
necessary to open the Vera Cruz and
Mexico City railroad by force.
The four transports, according tC

that cost of living has risen greatly

THE ADMINISTRATION FAvORS
NATIONAL INCORPORATION ACT

PHILADELPHIA. March 3O.-Attor-
ney General Wickersham tonight held
up the Sherman antitrust law as an
adequate statute to compel competi-
ton in trade and pleaded that the
solution of the trust problem" lay
in the enforcement of the Sherman
law backed by affirmative legislation
providing for federal incorporation
and regulation of interstate and for
eign business.
The attorney general addressed the
American Academy of Politics and
Social Science on "A Constructive
National Trust policy"
Makes Three Suggestions.
He declared that, in his view, the
elements of a sound program to deal
with the matter consist mainly in:
First, enforcing the Sherman law
against all great corporations by re
curing them to separate themselves
into such parts as will remove all
! danger of monopoly; second, break
ing up all agreements and combina
tons between separate Independent
competing concerns having for theil
purpose the unfair control of business
and exclusion of competition. anu
where the intent to violate the law is
apparent, prosecuting criminally those
concerned in them; and, third, the
enactment of a proper, adequate ma
tional law of corporate association
