the French butcher boy from
New Orleans. Mandot fought
superb battle, his cleverness put
ting Rivers at sea after the first
half of the scrap had been passed.
Toward the end, Rivers, realiz-
ing that he was being beaten by
the mechanical precision of the
Frenchman's fighting, bored in
and attempted to put over a
knockout. This style of milling
suited Mandot, who jabbed his
right and left into the Mexican's
face until it was a bleeding pulp.
The only disappointment about
Mandot's work was his failure to
put over a Knockout when he had
Rivers at his mercy, There was
not a knockdown scored during
the fight the nearest to it being
when Rivers dropped the Cres-
cent City pug to one knee in the
seventeenth. Mandot will be
matched with AID Wolgast in a
bout for the lightweight title.
Another gent has come from
Australia to get the licking of his

just 80 seconds to knock out Dave

THE LAWRENCE OUTRAGE.
(New York World.)

If anything more were lacking to stir public indignation against the Lawrence mill-owners it was the for cible action taken to prevent strikers from sending away their children. There can be no warrant in law for such interference. It is open to the worst pOSSi ble construction.
 It is no business of the mill-owners what purpose lies hack Of this remoVa' to other places of the child vic inns of the Strike-Whetiicr it be to advertise the strikers grievances or merely that the children may be better cared for. The fact evidently! is that the children when sent elsewhere are better off. Their fares are pad, their going impos- es no burden upon the Lawrence com munity. Their removal from Law renee is within the law and the clear constitutional rights of parents or guardians, whether citizens or aliens
 Why, then, this DO ice clubbing of mothers to prevent them from send ing away their children? Has the public authority been enlisted for the mill-owners to prevent the strikers from Tightening their burden in lawful ways? Has tariff protection for lat or reached the point Of suggesting for it's beneficiries a prison camp where out side cOInmunicat ton is cut off and the world IS left to guess what goes on within?
 The Lawrence authorities must be blind and the mil--oUners mad.

Washington.-On the recommends

on report from the surgeon general

The President commuted the sen
tence OF Charles w. Morse, TO expire
at once. This action was taken upon
the recommendation OF the Attorney
General, based upon the following re-
port OF Surgeon General Torney:
"A careful review of reports makes
1t clear to my mind that he is suffer

due to degenerative changes, which
are incurable and progressive. The
reports show that both the conditions
of the kidneys and the heart are grow

long as six months"
Designated as a special messenger
by the Attorney Generals Office, Mrs.
Morse left Washington Immediately
for Atlanta, bearing her husbands
commutation papers.

US. GOVERNMENT MAY
INTERVENE IN CUBA AGAIN
United States Warns Gomez to Sup
press Veterans-Troop and
Fleet Ready.

Washington. - The State Depart.
ment served notice on President Co
mez that the United States will in
teryene in Cuba if further attempts are
made by the veteran organization TO
nullify the law prohibiting the inter-
ference of the military in political af-
fairs in Cuba. The attitude of the
United States is shown in the follow
ing note presented 10 the Cuban Gov
ernment.
The situation in Cuba as now re-
ported causes grave concern TO the
Government of the United States.
That the laws intended to safeguard
free republican government shall be
enforced and not defed is obviously
essential to the maintenance of the
law, order and stability Indispensable
TO the status of the Republic OF Cuba,
in the continued well being Of which
the United States has always evinced
and cannot escape a vital interest
The President of the United States
looks to the President and Govern
ment Of Cuba TO prevent the threaten
ed situation which would compel the
Government of the United States,
much against its desires, 10 consider"
what measures ii must take in pursu-
ance Of the obligations of its relations
to Cuba"
The notification of the American
Government was served on President
Gomez through American Minister
Beaupre at Havana.
This situation is an outgrowth OF
the agitation begun last fall by the
Association Of the Veterans Of the
War for Cuban independence.
The veterans began by demanding
the dismissal from public office Of all
men who had ever been identified
appointment of members of their own
organization to Office where possible.
At the time OF tho last intervention,
President Roosevelt said the next
time the United States went into
Cuba with troops il would go TO stay.
Since then, on occasions OF reported
outbreaks in Cuba, Presiden' I aft has
made II plain TO the Cuban Govern
ment that the next time he United
States was called on TO send troops
TO the island those troops would re-
main and that he Stars and Stripes
would be the Cuban national flag.
Major-Gen. Wood has enough troops
near the Atlantic seaboard and the
Gulf of Mexico to have 5000 men in
Cuba in five days and 10000 in ten
days.
There are 10 battleships and sever
al small vessels at Guantanamo, Cuba.
From the batteships 1900 marines
could lie landed. Strewn along the
ttlantic coast are 800 additional
marines who could be sent to Cuba
in ten days.
