Yesterday.

tBy Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Rome, March 15.-Suspicion that
the attempted assassination of Victor
Emmanuel, king of Italy, yesterday,
either was the consequence of a plot
or was due to the instigation of per-
their own purposes increased today.
The revolver used by Antonio Dalba
is costly and formidable weapon, d
foot in length. Dalba said he had
found it.
Assassin Regretted Act.
Major Giovanni Lane, commander
Iof the Royal body guard, who was
wounded in the head, was considered
out of danger He is suffering from
an affection of the eyesight, due to
the fragment of his helmet which pen
etrated his skull. In a moment of re-
pentence, Dalba said he regretted his
act on account of his mother. The
police officials told him she would be
assisted by same kind of persons
whom he tried to assassinate.
Callers at the Quirinal to express
congratulations included most of the
diplomatic corps, among them Thon-
as J. O'Brien, American ambassador
to Italy.
Telegrams from every part of Italy
and from nearly every country in the
world poured into the palace. They
comprised dispatches from many SOW
ereigns, that from Ahe emperor of Aus

DIR. H. v. WILEY
HAS RESIGNED
Veteran Chemist Who Has
Battled Long for Pure
Food Is Out
IN DEPARTMENT SINCE 1888
Will Devote Attention In Future
to the Creation of Federal
Health Bureau.

! (By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Washington, D. c.. March 15.-Dr.
Harvey w. Wiley, chief OF the United
States bureau Of chemistry, today
handed his resignation to Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson and announced
that he would devote the rest OF his
life TO urging the creation of a ma
tional health department, entirely sep
arate from any other branch of the
government service. The resignation
became effective at once.
Asked whether he would be q can
didate for head of the proposed fed
eral health department, for which he
announced he was going to work, he
declared that he would not be, that he
had held all the government positions
he cared to fill.
DR.. Wiley's resignation came as a
dramatic climax to a long conference
he had with Secretary Wilson in the
| latter's private office today The sec
retary would make no statement OF
the case otherwise than that DR.. WILEY
| had handed in his resignation. No
reasons were given, he said, nor did
DR.. Wiley outline his plans. 1t is
known DR.. Wiley, for long time, has
been unhappy in his connection with
the department, He has claimed that
ne has been hampered and harassed
by the other officials.
President Taft was informed of Dr..
Wiley's resignation by Secretary VIII
son. To the newspapermen after the
cabinet meeting, Secretary Wilson
said: THE relations between DR..
Wiley and myself always have been
pleasant personally" He would say
nothing more.
Dr. Wiley entered the government
service in 1889 as chief chemist and
has served in that capacity ever since.
Mantle of Elijah.
Washington, D. c., March 15.-Pres-
ident Taft today sent kilograms
broadcast to heads Of universities and
colleges throughout the country ask
Ing them to recommend a successor
to Dr. Wiley.
Why Wiley Resigned.
Washington, D. c., March 15.-Dr,
! Harvey Wiley, tDe pure food EXPERT,
late today declared he had resigned
from the Department of Agriculture
/ because he had been antagonized in
the enforcement Of the pure food law.
One by one, he had seen the funda-
mental principles of that act either
paralyzed or dscredited, he said.
DR.. Wiley said interests engaged
in the manufacture of adulterated foods
had made appeal after appeal to es-
Gaze the rulings of his bureau, and as
result one after another of his activ-
itiea in behalf Of the people had been
restricted.
Matters that properly should have
come to the chemistry bureau, he said,
mad been taken away from him The
differences had become irreconciliable,
he had lacked support. and finally had
come 10 the conclusion that he could
90 more good in the service of the
people as a private citizen.
