TWO RANSOMS ASKED
Mexican Rebels Hold John T.
Cameron and Arthur McCor-
mick, Both Americans.

John 7. Cameron, the rich American
cattle dealer, taken from a train Of the
Mexican Northwestern railroad, October
Is. by rebels, is held for $4,000 ransom.
This information is conveyed to the State
Department today. by the vice consul al
Jaurez. Mrs. Cameron, wife of the pris-
oner. confirms this fact in another com.
munication.
Cameron. according to the vice consul
left Juarez that morning on the south
bound train. Rebels under Salazar halted
the train and seized the stockman. They
conveyed him to the Cince de Mayo mines
where he is now held.
A protest has been lodged with Gen
Aubert. commander of federal troops
with headquarters in Juarez, by the vic,
consul.
Arthur Mccormick, superintendent o.
the Palonas ranch. is also being held
by rebels for a ransom of 5000.
Within two months. 1000 rebels hav,
been driven out of Sonora, according t
the governor Of that state. Only q few
small bands continue to operate there Ii

Teaching Children to Swim.

From the Chicago Record Herald.
Many children have been taught to
swim In the Northwestern University
gymnasium pool. and the showing of
proficiency made by young children at
tho recent exhibitions in the gymnasium
should inspire other communities to pro-
vide facilities for learning this useful and
pleasurable <art. Boys and girls five to
ten years OF aga have become good
swimmers At Evanston because they have
had excellent instruction and a place
where they could learn.
There are far too few opportunities
for the learning Of swimming at an early
age. A public pool and an instructor
ought to be provided in every village; in
Chicago many shallow pools could easily
be constructed along the lake shore. in
which the water would become heated to
a higher Temperature than the lake wa
ter has. for the lake itself is too cold
We need more bathing beaches with such
pools ana with competent instructors.
II Ii easy for children to learn to
swim under the right conditions: most
Of them are naturally venturesome and
eager to indulge in any sport: the timid
ones should be encouraged and taught.
Except at the SeashOre and at lake re-
sorts. girls have practically no opportu-
mites Of learning to swim. There is an
''old swimming hole in almost every
river, creek or pond for the boys. but
many Of them do not learn because of
the children to swim and there will be
fewer accidents recorded every vacation
season and whenever q disaster on the
water occurs.

BERLIN. October Is. - The govern

Third Term Sentiment Waning.

'"The third term sentiment is waning in
Pennsylvania There was considerable SEN
timent for the third termer here. and
much dissatisfaction with the republican
organization. 1t will be close between
Wilson and Taft
New York will be carried by Taft. The
third termer is losing ground every day,
and Wilson's fight with Tammany will
cost him many votes in Greater New
York. In western New York state the
sentiment is coming back to Taft. The
nomination of Sulzer helped the demo-
Gratis in the cities, but will not gain for
them any support in the rural districts:
1t is probable, as a result, governor VIII
be elected on one ticket, while presiden-
tial electors Of another are chosen.
Michigan will go for Taft by good
ma jority. Notwithstanding the crowds
that greeted Roosevelt in Detroit, and the
fact that some third termers Kissed Har-
Ian and Bede. who were opposing Roose-
will give a good plurality for Taft.
illinois Is the state where Roosevelt
is the strongest of any in the Union, and
it may be possible that he may carry that
state with the powerful money influence
that is behind him there. He certainly
has the best organization in that state
and is making the best showing.

for Wilson in my opinion. La Toilette and
his friends will not allow the third term
er to make any kind of showing in

DIFFICULT TO GET JURY
FOR TONY MILANO TRIAL
Panel of Criminal Court Exhausted
and Order Issued for Fifty Ad-
ditional Talesmen.

The second day Of the trial of Tony
murder in connection with the killing
of Harry Smith, was consumed in a
futile attempt to obtain a jury. Seven
ty-five talesmen We're examined, but SO
many had conscientious scruples
against capital punishment or had
formed opinions that twelve men salts
factory alike to the government and
the defense could not be obtained.
Former United States Attorney Baker
and Attorney James F. Kelly for the
defense exercised sixteen of the total
of twenty challenges allowed the de-
PENDANT. The prosecutions challenges
did not exceed seven in number.
Orders Additional Talesmen.
When it was apparent a jury could not
be procured today Justice Stafford di-
rected the clerk to draw the names of
fifty additional talesmen. who are to re-
port tomorrow. AS the defense has only
four more challenges it is expected the
trial will begin about IL o'clock tomor-
row morning. Assistant United States
Attorney Hawken will make the opening
statement for the prosecution.
The courtroom was again comfortably
filled with spectators today. Many were
refused admission to the courtroom. and
peered into the room through the WIN
dows during the entire session.
Among the talesmen examined today
were men who had served on several Of
the prominent criminal cases Of the past
few years. Attorneys on both sides
seemed eager to avoid having such jurors
on the panel. and both sides exercised
challenges in removing them.
