MADERU BUSHES TROOPS
TO NORTHERN MEXICO.

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 10.--Presum-
ably alarmed by the talk of American
Intervention. the Mexican government
began sending fresh troops today 20
reinforce the federal forces In north
ern Sonora. where American inter-
ests are suffering seriously from the
rebellion. Just how many more will
be dispatched toward the scene Of hos
tilities has not yet been made public
but indications are that President
Madero has made up his mind that
the north must be pacified no matter
what becomes OF the rest OF the coun-
try.
Though the president has denied
receiving any-news Of the intention
of the IT,. s.. TO intervene In Mexico.
nobody doubts that he Is fully posted
concerning the Intervention news
from Beverly. Mass. and the predic-
tions for an extra session OF congress-.
roday's developments suggest that he
will do all in his power TO head on
any such outcome by the most des-
perate efforts to restore order In all
localities where American lives or
property are endangered.
More arrests were made today OF
men suspected OF completely In the
plot for an uprising In Mexico City

OSBORN is NOT DECIDED

He Points to a Couple of Rea-

Two Newspapers
From a staff correspondent.

LANSING, Sept. 10.-While the
matter OF another special session o.
the legislature Is under advisement,
Gov. Osborn is not prepared to say
whether he will issue the call. II
can be convened as we'll right after
election as before election, in his
opinion.
The vehement protests of the De-
troit Free Press and Journal against
taxation reform-and they are the
noisiest opponents Of special ses-
sion-is easy to explain" said Gov.
Osborn today. Naturally they do
not want anyone to interfere with q
taxation system that, subject to local
influence and favoritism, lets the
Free Press property, worth a million
dollars, stand on the assessment rolls
at $4,000, and the Journal also worth
a million, to stand on the rolls at $50,

President Warren and Other Officials
Meet Algerians at St. Charles
Hotel Tuesday.
GRAND ISLE RAILROAD FUTURE

Canal street. In a letter written by
the Grand Isle road to the Dock Board,
in which they stated their position
very clearly, there was every evidence
that the new company was here and
meant business, and it is regrettable
that they should have received, at the
hands of the Dock Board at that time,
a refusal for the space they desired.
The spending of s5,0O0,0OO in our dis
trict would double the population of
our town in five years, and quoting
Mr.. Warren again: 1T is our intention
to not only develop this district In
which you gentlemen live, but, also, to
develop the country through which the
Grand Isle goes. To do this, of course,
it will be necessary to develop the
country in establishing numerous small
farms, the extension of our main line
some thirty-four miles to Grand Island,
which is known to-day to be the most
perfect beach on our entire coast"
Some of the officials brought out the
fact that in building this extension to
Grand Island they are making prepare
lions to handle enormous crowds OF
Northern and Eastern visitors who
have, in the past, been spending their
winters in Florida and California. The
object in asking for ferry privilege
across the river, near Canal street, was
that they might be able to handle
their own passengers on their own
boats and at first hand, thus doing
away with the necessity Of any trans
fer to a ferry which could not take
care of the business.
The officials Of the Grand Isle al
this conference did not show a dis
position to dictate to tn ecommittee
what conditions should be embodied in
the new franchise for the Third Dis
frict ferry. They thought, Of course
lit was necessary for the development
of any district that the service should
be up-to-date and that the transporta
ton shall be cheap. These are thu
two principles for which The Heralt
has fought ever since the sale of TIL
Canal street ferry franchise, which
brought the enormous sum of quar-
ter of a million dollars to the city o
| New ORLEANS, and which is to-day
tax of that amount upon our citizens.

zens of our town, died at his residence
in Pacific avenue and Elvira street,

organizers.
He is survived by his widow, who
was Miss Eliza Daily before their mar
riage, and by seven sons and one
daughter
The funeral was held Saturday af
ternoon at 4 o'clock from the late re
sidence, and the interment was in tn,

What do you think would be the
benefits to Algiers if S5,OOO,OOO was
spent in actual construction there with
in the next few years?" These were
the words of President Warren of the
New Orleans, Southern & Grand Isle
Railroad at a meeting held with the
ferry committee of the Algiers I'M
provement Association at the st.
Charles Hotel, Tuesday afternoon.
Prior to the meeting at the st.
Charles Hotel, the ferry committee OF
the Algiers Improvement Association
held a preliminary meeting at the resi-
dence of F. c. Duvic, Monday evening,
where the general outline for the new
franchise for the Third District ferry
was discussed. The purpose of the
meeting with the officials Of the New
Orleans, Southern & Grand Isle Rail-
road at the st. Charles Hotel was to
acquaint the committee with such con-
ditions as would be required by the
railroad officials, who are prospective
bidders for the ferry franchise. There
were present at the meeting President
Warren, Vice-President Otto T. Meier,
General Manager c. E. A. Carr, and
Engineer Bristol, besides the commit
tee from the Association, consisting of
NJ. S. Mahoney, F. c. Duvic, Peter S.
Lawton, Jos. w. Lennox, Jules Boden'
ger, DR.. C. V. Kraft. Geo. Herbert
Jr., was also present at the confer
ence.
The officials of the Grand Isle road
went over the matter under discussion
and gave, in way, a general outline
of what they expect to do for Algiers
1t could be seen, and read, between the
lines, that the Grand Isles purpose in
asking for a ferry privilege is to give
the Algiers people not only better
transportation, but cheaper transporta
ton, and it was limited that perhaps the
new company would be able to trans
fer Algiers patrons from any part o
Agiers across a ferry in a street ca
and deliver them to the principal bust
ness sections of the city for the ont
fare of five cents. The officials wen
over with the committee the turn
down they had received from the Docl
Board in being refused a termina
space on the city side Of the river, nea
