ANXIOUS SEAT
Wheather or Not Orozco

Unknown
MESSENGER NOT RETURNED
Washington Is Advised That
New Executive Is Prisoner
Under Guard.

(3y Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Juarez, Mex, May 9.-Emiio Vas
quez Gomez probably will know within
another twenty-four hours whether he
is provisional president of the rebel
government or a prisoner of General
Pasqual Orozco, the military chief. The
special envoy from Gomez to Orozco
was reported here today to be return
ing from the south with OroZco's
army. No intimation of what it con-
tanned had reached here at 10 O'Clock
today.
Gomez and his associates declare
they are yet without advices but in
sist that if OroZco was dissatisfied with
the present procedure here he would
have wired a protest. 1t is probable
that the approaching clash with the
federals in the vicinity of Torreon is
absorbing the attention of the rebel
military chief and political develop
ments are likely to lag until the out
come of the battle is known. Gomez
moves about freely in JuareZ and no
extraordinary precautions to guard
him were apparent today. On the
street he is constantly accompanied
by Colonel Pascual Orozco, Sr., his
minister of war, Moreno Canton, sub
secretary of foreign affairs and Fran
cisco Pradillo, military chief in Juarez.
Reported Gomez a Prisoner.
Washington, D. c., May 9.-Emilio
Vasquez Gomez is held a prisoner in
the customs house in Juarez, according
to advices to the state department to-
Gay. A heavy guard has been thrown
around the building. The department
is further advised that Orozco probably
will not confirm Gomez as president.
The reports indicate the rebels have
been defeated in the mountain pass Ell
Puerto del Carmon, between Monclova
and Cuatro Cienegas, Coahuia.
Rebel Army Moving.
Escalon, Mex, May 9.-General
Orozco's rebel army continued south
ward early today without a single
skirmish. The federals are yet be-
lieved to be many miles south of here
though scouts had reported gradual
advance of the federals northward
from Torreon. The march southwark
was uneventful.

tBy Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
PottsVille. Pa, May 9.-The noun
tains about Minersville were dotted
with pickets representing idle anthra-
cite miners, who hid behind bushes
and rocks and who stopped many
workers on their way to the collieries

high Valley Coal and Iron police dis
persed pichets near Mount Carmel and

fight, one man for throwing stones at
company hands.

An unsuccessful attempt was made
at Locust Gap during the night to
wreck a Reading freight train, Spe-

Witness Before British Wreck
Commission Testifies in
Officials Favor,

(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexicnzs
London. May 9.-Evidence that the
doors of four water-tight bulllheads had
been opened after having been closed
from the bridge was introduced today
at the British wreck commissions in
curry into the loss of the Titanic This
was done, according to Thomas Dillon
or the engineers staff, in order that
the engineer and crew might reach the
pumps in boiler room No. ). The men
did not go into boiler room No. ) be
cause there was too much water there.
In fact, the water was leaking through
into boiler room No. 4. Dillon said
he swan about for twenty minutes
before being rescued and saw at least
1000 other men swimming or floating
on the surface buoyed up by life pre-
servers. He saw no women in the
water.
lsmay's Conduct Exemplary.
The conduct of j. Bruce Ismay, man
aging director of the International Ma
rine after the casualty was mentioned
for the first time during the British in
vestigation and was described by
James Johnson, a steward as having
been exemplary.
Johnson, who left the ship in No 2
emergency boat, a small dingy, was
asked why there was not more women
in the boat. He replied that they
would not get into it, Mr. Ismay, the
witness said, tried TO induce the Wont
en- to enter the dingy but they refused
whereupon he escorted them to larger
boats.
He did everything an Englishman
could do" Johnson added
Officer Took Professional Advice.
Steward Johnson was asked why
his boat had not returned to the scene
CT the disaster when its occupants
heard cries for help. He replied that
the officer in charge had asked the
women if they should return, but the
women decided against this course and
the officer took their advice. Under
the existing weather conditions their
boat would have held five or six more
persons, Johnson testified.

that the evidence that the after part of
the ship righted itself momentarily

fed his theory that if the bulkhead
had not been opened the after part OF
the ship would have remained afloat.
Engineers All Perished.
The attorney general, Sir Rufus

There is no getting away from the
fact that the Ways and Means Commit
tee of the House is being overloaded
with bills and that unless it unloads
some of these on other committees,
there will be trouble. Each important
measure has within it the seed of dis
cord, when those interested are push
ing its consideration. Take the Sum-
ner county bill which is slated to
come up again this afternoon. 1t has

Considerable amusement was caused
by an enthusiastic new county boost
er, who in his fervor for the cause,
dictated two kilograms to himself, al
vocating the creation of the new
county, in which he, although not a

got to sign the kilograms, however,

STEEL TRUST
IS SUSTAINED
Government Lost Motion to
Restrain Company From
Destroying Books
NO EVIDENCE OF CRIME
Combination Is Not Held Res
ponsible For Acts of Sub
sidery Concern.

(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Trenton, N. j., May 9.-The appeal
in the United States District Court
here for an injunction to restrain the
United States steel corporation and a
number of it's subsidiary concerns
from the destruction of books and pa.
pers which might be used in evidence
in the suit of the government for the
dissolution of the steel corporation,
was dismissed in a per curiam opinion
filed this morning by Judges Gray,
Burlington and Mcpherson, except as
to the American Steel & Wire Com
pany, one of the steel corporations S
subsidiary concerns.
No Evidence of Criminal Intent.
The opinion which is brief, after
speaking of the application says: mo
evidence is offered that such destruc.
tion is threatened, and it need hardly
be said that evidence is essential be.
fore any man may be either accused
or convicted of what would be in sub
stance a criminal interference with
the courts of justice.
Motion Not Supported by Evidence.
"The motion is supported almost
wholly by the fact that after certain
prosecutions in the southern districts
OF New York came to an end a number
of papers belonging to the American
Steel and Wire Company that had
been furnished by the company to the
government for use in such proseeu-
tion, and had been returned to it's pos
session, were destroyed by one of it's
officers.
Destruction Without Evil.
while we are satisfied that this de.
struction was without evil the fact re.
mains that the destruction took place
and that is the reason why, so far as
the steel and wire company Is concern
ed, the restraining order previously
granted should be continued"
The opinion also says that it is not
shown that the other defendants were
in any respect connected with its acts
and that without evidence the court
| cannot grant the present petition. The
petition is, therefore, refused except
as to the steel and wire company, but
the government is given permission tc
renew the petition if at any time coun
sci shall desire such step as neces
sary or desirable.
