CHORUS OF GOAL MINERS
 AT A BULL MOOSE RALLY.
Governor Johnson Says Settlement of Coal Strike Made Roosevelt Enemies.

Scranton, Pa. Oct 23.-Those enc mics that Colonel Roosevelt made among certain wealthy men when he stepped into the anthracite coal strike in 1902 and obtained settlement fa- vorable to the men are arrayed against him in his present fight, Governor Johnson tonight told an audience in which were several hundred miners.
 Touching further on the coIonePs enemies, the governor said the kept newspapers whose animosity in the past was aroused against the former president by reason of his activity against unfair monopolies, now are en- gagged in seeking to convince the pub lie that he would foster" big combi- nations.
 The meeting. which was largely at- tended, was held in the armory. A chorus of coal miners furnished the music. The speaking was advertised among the miners in several foreign languages
 Those f1nanciers who have been guilty of indefensible practices in furious to the people could not under stand or sympathize in 1903 with what they then called the 'meddling propen- sities' of the president when he took hand in the great anthracite strike in the coal fields of Pennsylvania" he said.
 "The great owners who now are largely arrayed against Colonel Roose- welt resented, and resented bitterly. government action. because forsooth. they regarded it as interference with their private business.
 They paid no heed to the prospect of suffering from cold and hunger which faced the people unable to ob- tain at the usual prices the coal they required. What they wanted was a president who would despatch troops into the disaffected district and by use of their weapons compel the miners to return to work under the conditions they imposed, but Roosevelt, ever alive to the justice to the workingmen, as well as the operatives themselves, re- fused to take such arbitrary action"
 Referring to Colonel Roosevelt's at titude toward the trusts, he said:
 Tt was he who commenced the bat tie against the trusts of the nation and required them to submit to govern mental control. By this very act he incurred their enmlty and that of ev- cry kept newspaper In the land.
 The same newspapers that de- nounced him because of his 'destruct- i've and fls 'anarchistic' views in seek ing to suppress and repress the wrongful aggression of dishonest com binations of wealth today are endeav- bring to poison the public mind by asserting that he is friendly to the INsL' L A xI s<TI rHsA.1

KILLED AND WOUNDED
 NUMBER LESS THAN 100.
Little Hloodshed in Capture of Vera cruz by Federal Troops.

Vera Cruz. Mexico, Oct. 23.--The re- Volt of General Felix Diaz, nephew of the exiled president, has been short lived. The town of Vera Cruz, which he occupied with about two thousand adhersents for several days, was cap- tured by the federal forces today. The casualties were few.
 Two federal columns, commanded by Colonel Jiminez Castro and General Joaquin Beltran. entered Vera Cruz from the north and south. There was small opposition to their advance. Col onel Castro with less than fifty men captured General Felix Diaz, whose goo men lat police headquarters refus- ed to fire at his command.
 The revolutionists in the barracks have not yet surrendered. They say they will hold out until the last man is killed However, the weaker spirits seem to be trying to escape
 The killed and wounded number less than one hundred. No foreigner was hurt. Desultory firing continued after the federals entered the town. Instead Of a great battle, everything was in a muddle. Rebels and federals en- countered each other in the streets without knowing which side the others were affiliated with, as the uniforms of nll are alike.
 The rebel officers have been disarm- fd and made prisoners, and it is Thought probable that they will be shot by summary court martial. It is an- bounced that the soldiers will not be punished.

Bridgeport, Oct. 23.-Grilled by de- tectives and state policemen for sev- eral hours tonight Joseph Buonomo of Chicago admitted that the reason he killed his commonlaw wife, Jennie Cavaglieri, last night, near Stratford, was because she had refused to go back to Chicago and live with him. Until tonight he had steadfastly main tained that he did not know what he was doing. being drunk. when he, with four other men, took her in an antomo- bile to a cemetery near Putney last night, and shot her to death.
 Woman Had Left Him.
 Buonomo said that he had lived with the woman for the last four. months, and that this week she was found to be missing. He went to New York, and being unable to find her there, he came to, Bridgeport to see his, friend, Frank Piziehillo. thinking he might have seen her.

 Says Crime Was Not Prsmeditated.
 Although Buonomo denies intention of shooting his wife, when they made arrangements for the trip, the police are inclined not to- believe him on this point. Buonomo says he had the auto stop near Putney cemetery and he asked the woman if she would go back to Chicago with him and when she said NO" he became enraged and shot her. He denies, emphatically. that the shooting had anything to do with the alleged revelations the wo- man is said to have made regarding vice conditions in Chicago, thus dis putting the police theory for the mo- tive of the crime.
 No Information from Other Prisoners.
 Plziehillo and AIatteo were each questioned separately tonight as to their knowledge of the shooting and , each in turn denied that they had any, thing to do with it. They declared they had absolutely no idea that Buo- homo intended to shoot the woman when they made the trip.

GEN. DIAz sURRENDERs
 WITH LITTLE RESISTANCE.
Three RebeIIions Still in Progress in
 Mexico, However.

Washington, Oct 23-News of the recapture of Vera Cruz by Mexican federal forces and the surrender Of Gen. Felix Diaz and his staff with practically no show of resistance was received with astonishment 1n ofhciai circles here. It is generally believed that this event marks the complete suppression of what should be looked upon as the beginning of general rebellion involving entirely new ele- ments.
 The sudden collapse of the defense after such elaborate preparations ha% been made for a general battle, is taken as an evidence that the strength of the revolutionary sentiment in the city of Vera Cruz has been very much oyerrated and that it was confined closely to the comparatively small garrison which f1ocked to the standard of General Diaz principally for senti- mental motives.
 The downfall of the Diaz movement leaves three rebellions in operation in Mexico, headed respectively by Zapata, Ag,lilar and Orozco. It is presumed that the government forces employed against Diaz will be concentrated upon AglIilar. who Is likely to be driven back into the mountains. that the pur- suit of the small bands into which Orozco's force has broken up will be resumed, and that the only really seri- ous undertaking confronting the fed eral army will be in connection with the Zapata rebellion.
 Death Penalty for Diaz.
