out by the company, believing that 1t

the company to prospective settlers.

II Means Intervention.
San Diego, Cal. April 27.-With the
cruiser Maryland lying peacefully at
anchor in San Diego harbor, and the
torpedo flotilla tied up at the Corona
do landing, there was little evidence
here today Of activity on the part Of
the navy in the Mexican situation.
though action was expected any min
ute.
The Maryland steamed in last night
from San Pedro and two Of the torpe-
do boats Immediately left for the
south. They returned this morning,
however, and rejoined the fleet in the
harbor here.
Officers Of the navy declare that no
orders have been received to proceed
south, but 1t is believed that the war
ships are ready to SAIL and that they
VIII leave at moments notice, should
their presence be required on,the west
coast Of Mexico.

merly was admitted by President Fran
cisco I. Madero here today in a state
ment to the United Press, In which
he also outlined the cause which he
says led General Pascual 0rozco. the
rebel chieftain, to foment the present
revolution. In referring to the pres

dero said.
"Whlle ! think the American gov

am persuaded that It is not SO friendly
as It was few months ago"
Madero declared that he did not be-
lieve that the Mexican people would
be disloyal to constitutional govern
ment and follow the leadership Of Cen
eral orozco, whom, he said had proved
an migrate and traitor

COLORED MEN HAVE HELD
MANY OFFICES OF TRUST.

In the United States congress at
Washington, D. c., no less than
twenty-five men Of color have occu-
pied seats. Two senator's and twenty
members. Hiram R. Revels, United
States senator, served twelve months
and ten days in 1901. B. X. Bruce,
six years, 1875-1S81. Joseph H. Rain
ey, M. G., forty-first to forty-ffth con-
gress, ten years. R. B. Elliot, NJ. c.,
two years, ten months. r. H. Game,
M. c., four years. Robert Smalls, M.
c., six years. George w. Murray, M.
g., four years. Thomas H. Miller, M.
c., two years. Alonzo J. Rainier, M.
! c., two years. Jerre Harrison, NJ. c.,
two years. Benjamin S. Turner, M.
c., two years. James T. Rapier, M.
c., two years. Johrua T. Walls, M.
c., six years. Robert D Large, M. c.,
two years. John H. Hyman, M. c.,
two years. James E. O'Hara, M. c.,
four years. H. P. Cheatam, M. c.,
four years. George H. White, M. c.,
four years. John R. Lynch, M. c., six
years. Jeff Long, M. c., two years.
Charles E. Nash, M. c., two years.
John M. Longston, M. c., two years.
From this list, by consulting the
congressional record, it will be seen
that men have served in congress
from every one of the southern
states and that two of these men ac-
tually occupied seat of election in Uni
ted States senate. Their record was
in all cases satisfactory, and in many
instances the men in this list showed
unusual brilliance. This was espe-
cially true of Senator Revels, Senator
B. K. Bruce, who at one time occu-
pied the position of vice president of
the United States, by acting as pre-
siding officer of the senate. John R.
Lynch Of Mississippi, Robert Smalls
of South Carolina, John M. Langston
Of Virginia and many others proved
themselves the peers of their white
colleagues.
