Maryland Men Beat and Abuse Mrs.
Holman In Brutal Manner.

Cream City, Md, May 28.-Mrs.
Mary Holman was taken from her
home on Saturday in this city by a
gang of thugs, it is charged, who bru-
tally kicked and beat her and finally
finished up by dipping her into vat
of tar, in the presence of her eleven
yearold son, who made desperate eff
forts to protect his mother.
TerTorized by her experience the
woman has quit the town. She is now
being sheltered by Tom Jones, ne
gro who lives three miles in the coun.
try. One Of the most startling fea-
lures Of the incident is the fact that
the town lights were out when the as
saut was committed.
Mrs. Holman says the switch was
turned through the connivance Of town
officials. However this may be, the
men guilty of the outrage boosted
while they were subjecting her to the
indignitles that their act had the
sanction Of the town council
Warrants were sworn out by Mrs.
Holman at Behlin for the arrest of
the men whose names have been CIV

TELLS INQU:SITORS HOW HE
MADE FORTUNE BY DEALS
John w. Stevenson Describes Transfer
Of His Concern to the
Steel Trust.

New York, May 25.--John Steven
son, Jr, a Scotchman and relative
of Robert Louis Stevenson, enlivened
the hearings Thursday In the fed.
eral suit to dissolve the United
States Steel corporation when he
told in rich Scotch accent of the
various deals by which he sold
half dozen steel properties
to the Reid-Moore syndicate. John w.
Gates and the steel corporation itself
each time striking a profitable bar
gain.
Entering the employ of the Carne-
gle Steel company in 1875, when his
fellow Scotsman, Andrew Carnegie,
was making his reputation as an iron
master, Stevenson In 1892 established
at Newcastle, Pa, the first successful
tin plant mill in this country, he said:
Mr.. Stevenson told modestly Of the
days OF fortune making when he built
up the Sharon Steel company, the
Newcastle Wire Nail company. the
Chenango Valley Tin Plate company,
which he handed to the American Tin
Plate company for a million and a
half dollars; the Newcastle Sheet and
Tin Plate company, which he turned
over for a million, and of various 9TH
er companies he had organized.
He said that just prior to selling out
to John w. Gates his wire nail COM
pany competition was so fierce that
most of the tin plate mills were in a
bad way ana his own company, the
strongest, was feeling pinched. Gates
wired him and met him on train
and he agreed to sell, he said.

shareholders of the Waters-Pierce Oil
company were sought by agents acting

feat the Pierce faction of the company
last February and place Standard Oil
interests in control, according to testi-
mony given here before a commission
er by Charles T. White, secretary of
the Standard Oil company of New Jer-

The suit is brought to compel the
tellers at the recent election of officers

Pierce faction refused to count the
votes on the ground that if Standard
Oil interests control their company

JERSEY VOTING IN
PRIMARIES TODAY
Spectacular Campaign Brought
to a Close.
CANDIDATES FIGHT TO END
People VIII Decide Preference Be-
tween Taft, Roosevelt and La
Toilette and Wilson and His
Democratic Foes.

Newark, N. j., May 2S.-The New
Jersey state primary election today
practically brings to a close the spec
tacular campaigns for the presidential
nomination that have resulted this
year from the adoption by several
states of preference laws.
The South Dakota primaries are still
In the future, but it is believed that
the voting in New Jersey will mark
the end Of the personal appeal for pri-
mary votes that President Taft and
Theodore Roosevelt have voiced in
many parts of the country.
This state will choose % delegates
to each national convention, four at
large and two each from the twelve
congressional districts. Each district
selects its own delegates, but the dele
gates-atlarge are elected by the vote
Of the whole state. The primary law
also permits voters to express a per-
sonal choice for a presidential candi-
date, but this preference has no direct
bearing upon the division of delegates.
Delegates Are Pledged.

pledged to Taft, Roosevelt or La Fol-
lette on the Republican ballots and on
the Democratic ballots for Gov. Wood
row Wilson or marked 'uninstructed.
The Democratic fight has been only
between Governor Wilson and his op-
ponents inside the state. The Repub-
lican candidates found no state issues
to aid them and have made their cam
paigns largely on personal grounds
Governor Wilson's friends declare
he will win the full state delegation
with the possible exception of the
members from Newark. the stronghold
of former United States Senator
Smith, whose reelection the governor
opposed.
Although the Democratic campaign
has been mild in comparison with the
rush of the Republican workers, the
result of the primaries Is considered of
unusual Importance, since 1t is &C
knowledged that Governor Wilson's
chances at Baltimore would receive a
severe blow If he failed to get at least
a good majority of the delegates from
his own state.
Fights Till Polls Open.
Colonel Roosevelt closed his cam
paign tour last night, but the presi-
dent spoke today right up to the hour
Of opening of the POLLS, making tour
of the farming and shore towns in the
lower part of the state.
In all, the president and Colonel
Roosevelt have made more than fifty
speeches each since they entered the
state last Thursday. By train and au-
tomobile they have covered New Jer-
sey, until hardly one of its two and a
half million inhabitants has lacked a
chance to see the candidates.
Senator La Toilette has been In the
state for the last five days and has
made nearly dozen speeches. Cover
nor Wilson has spoken three times
and has issued one address to the
voters, explaining why he did not can
vass the state, and attacking his enc
mics.
The polls opened at p. m. and will
close at this evening.

TAFT SAYS WILL
NOT INTERVENE
Marines Sent to Cuba to Protect
Americans.
SENDS MESSAGE TO GOMEZ
Notwithstanding Note OF Assurance
Preparations Looking to Occupa
ton of Island Are Actively
Going Forward.

Washington, May 2S.-Preparations
by the administration for Intervention
In Cuba and an indefinite occupation
of the island continue with as much
vigor as during the last few days, de-
spite the note OF assurance OF non-ln-
tervention sent by President Tart TO
President Gomez
A striking evidence of the purpose or
the United States to take action was
shown when Acting Secretary OF the
Navy Beekman Winthrop ordered four
golfers and supply ships of the navy
to load and proceed to join the second
squadron Of the Atlantic fleet now
steaming with all haste to Key West.
Taft Replies to Gomez.
Sunday President Taft received
through the state department protest
from President Gomez against the as
sembing of a large force OF warships
in Cuban waters or any action by the
United States which would lead the
world to understand .hat the American
government was going to intervene.
In reply to that message the president
sent to President Gomez the follow
ing:
81 am sincerely gratified to learn OF
your governments energetic measures
to put down the disturbance and TO
know that you are confident OF being
successful. AS was fully explained to
the Cuban charge d'affaires here, this
;Y, Cl1nG
to Key West, just as in sending the
Prairie to Guantanamo naval station,
was merely TO be able to act promptly
in case it should unfortunately become
necessary to protect American life and
property by rendering moral support
or assistance to the Cuban govern
lhent. AS was made quite clear at the
time, these messages OF precaution
were entirely disassociated from any
question Of intervention"
Prepare For Occupation.
Despite the note to President Go
mez, officials of the administration
here assert that the United States will
have troops in Cuba within the week,
They base their opinion on dispatches
coming to the government hourly
from the island republic. The last DIS
patch to be received came to the
state department from Arthur Beau
pre-, United States minister of Cuba.
or that dispatch the state department
makes known the following:
1T is reported that in the districts
of Lamayo, Guantanamo and Songo
few unimportant clashes between the
rebels and government troops have oc-
Cured. Estenoz the rebel leader, has
demanded OF the managers OF various
enterprises in the Guantanamo district
contributions and has threatened to
burn their plants unless payments are
made. Large bands of negroes are re-
ported to have been roaming along the
line of the Guantanamo and Western
railroad from Bolona to Biguabos and
pillaging at will In Santiago, over
