MEXICAN REBELS

TRIO OF CITIES
Revolution is Expanding Over More
Territory Since Presidents
Remonstrance.
ULT1MATUM MAY NOW FOLLOW
No Drastic Action to Be Taken
Without Advice and Consent

Washington, Dec. 20 Official re-
ports received today from Mexico TO
the State Department. show that the
rebellion is. more. extensive teerri-
torially than at any time since
President Taft issued his first re-
monstrance to the Madero govern
ment.
Officially 1t is stated that Presi-
dent Taft declined to give Mexico
and its affairs special attention
about 10 days ago when he had a
conference at the White House with
seneator Falls and William Alden
Smith and many American citizens,
residents of Mexico, who told the
president as eye-witnosses about the
impossibility of the Madero govern
ment protecting American lives and
property
1t was then announced that the
president had referred the case to
the departments, and that there
would soon be an ultimatum, which
would result in improved conditions
in Mexico,
1t is stated now that the president
will not take any drastic action
without the advice and consent Of
President-elect Wilson, who has
been fully informed of all the cir
cumstanees. In fact there is not
likely to be any action whatever un-
der the present administration.

TELLS HOW THE JURY
ARRIVED AT VERDICT

Newcastle, Ind. Dec. 29.--Frank
Dare, Henry county farmer, who was
foreman of the jury In the Federal
Court at indianapolis, which tried
and convicted the 3S defendants in
the alleged dynamite conspiracy
trial arrived here this evening, en-
route to his home near New Lisbon.
Speaking for the jury, wish to
say that we made careful considera-
tion of all Of the testimony in the
case that was presented to us, and
arrived at our verdict after due de-
said Mr. Dare.
"When we entered the jury room
we took up the instructions of the
court from top to bottom.
From the start it was agreed
that there should be no i'll feeling,
and that the case of each man
should be carefully considered. This
was done. and the evidence was
weighed, and l believe that true
verdict was returned.
strange to say, from the start it
was agreed that Buckley and Self
fert were innocent. They promptly
were acquitted, and then we took
up the other defendants one by one.
Every name was gone over and
every man was discussed.
From the start IL was the unani-
nous opinion of my fe'low-jurors
and myself that Ortie McManigal
had told the truth. We regarded his
testimony as unshaken by cross-ey-
animation, and thought of him as d
self-confessed criminal, who was ex-
posing his associates in order to pro-
vide light sentence for himself.
"In our minds there we're no
doubts as to the guilt of Ryan and
the other officers and members of
the executive board of the union.
We had no sympathy for Hockin.
when we filed out to return our
verdict | looked with sorrow on the
faces of the women defendants,
whose husbands, sons. brothers and
fathers were about to be sentenced
to felons' cel'."

ssociated Press Dispatch.

Los Angeles, Calf, Dec. 29.-Hal
Shain, an automobile racer was
fatally injured, three Others serious
ly injured and one man slightly hurt
when Shain's racer shot out of the
cup-shaped track, known as the
Daredevil Race for Life" on the
concession pier of Venice, this after
noon and dashed into the crowd.
Shain died half an hour later.
Shan had been conducting one of
the chief attractions at Venice. The
accident occurred because of th9
small size OF the track ON which he
rode and the terrib speed at which
he travelled, the cup is 20 feet in
diameter at the top and it required
a speed of 55 miles an hour to keep
in action on the almost perpendicu-
lar track. There was thin red line
a foot below the top known as the
dead line" for the driver.
In some manner Shain lost con-
troll of his machine and drove over
the dead line and after splintering
several rail posts dropped to the bot
tom of the cup. In another fraction
Of second the car shot to the top
again and plunged through the rail-
ing into the spectators. After maxi
ing half the circle of the track
through the crowd the auto fe back
over the speed side of the track to
the bottom with Shain underneath.
The plunge of the wild car
through the crowd of several hun
1red people caused a panic and sew
eral persons were injured in the
stampede to places of safety.
Although known to Pacific coast
racing circles as Hal Shain, his
given name was Ialver. He was So
years old and left a wife and young
son.
