CLAIMS OF AMERICANS TO
BE VIGOROUSLY PUSHED

Mexico City. Oct. 1-Ambassador
Wilson has repudiated as unauthorized
and gratuitous the suggestion made
this morning in the Nueva Era, a gov
eminent organ, that claims for In
IDENTITIES by American should be
withdrawn.
The embassy regards an expression
OF this kind" said the ambassador
In peculiarly bad taste. as emanat-
ing from a newspaper supposedly rep
resentative Of the opinion of the gov
eminent of Mexico. Citizens of the
United States have present claims
against the government of Mexico for
damages incurred during the revolu-
tons. Some of these claims lack Just
or legal foundation and their payment
Will not be urged by the United States.
Other claims are well founded.
THE United States will diplomati-
cany insist that all claims for dam
ages, which come either within clear
precedent or the presidents growing
out of amicable considerations shall
be dealt with Justly and generously by
the government Of Mexico" says MIR,
Wilson. THE embassy does not doubt
the good intentions of the Mexican
government to fully, consider and fully
and amply recompense all such IN
juries to persons or property"

WIFE MURDERER
IS ELECTROCUTED
Samuel n. Hyde First White Person
to Pay Penalty in Electric Chair in
South Carolina.

Columbia, 8. c., Oct Samuel H.
Hyde Of Anderson, convicted of kill
ing his wife and her father here in
July, 1911, was electrocuted here to-
day at 12:04 p. m.
Hyde walked into the death cham
Der with firm tread and with his
arms folded. The guards did not find
IL necessary to support him. He seat
ed himself in the death chair without
assistance and the elect1 odes were ad-
justed
Before the current was turned on
Hyde spoke for about three minutes,
saying he was sorry for his crime, but
that he knew ne was going to heaven.
The execution was delayed until the
last minute in anticipation that SEN
tence might be committed by the gov
ernor, as the executive was besieged
all the morning by petitioners asking
that the sentence be committed to
life Imprisonment. He was the first
white person to pay the death pen
atty since the inauguration of the
electric chair in this state.
Hyde gave his body to three medi-
cal students In Atlanta.
On July Is, 1911, Samuel Hyde, a
cotton mill engineer, forced his way
into the residence of his father in law,
w. B. Beasley. at Orr Mill, near An
derson, and went to his wife's room
and fired three times at her. She was
killed instantly. In leaving the house
Hyde encountered his father law,
who grappled with him and Hyde
shot him dead.
Hyde surrendered to the sheriff and
declared he was sorry he had to shoot
Beasley.
Hyde has been IN jail since he COM
mttted the crime. He was to have
been put to death on July and he
asked that he be given the distinc-
ton of being the first to die in the
newly erected death chair.
Hyde said he was ready to die and
wanted to meet his wife in the other
world. His actions were SO strange
that the penitentiary officials thought
that his mind must be unbalanced.
They asked the governor that a COM
mission of alienists be appointed to
examine into the mans mental con
dition. Hyde's sentence was respited
until September and commission
was appointed to examine him. The
date of his execution was set forward
again to October /. The commission
reported that Hyde was sane and that
he should die in the chair.

to them within fits banks when filled
to the brim. We find that under
these conditions the capacity of the
canal itself Is about ST. cubic feet per
second; under the same conditions
the sluice ways with the gate wide
open have a discharging capacity of
over 1400 cubic feet per second. The
conditions assumed In making the cal :
culations which lead to the above re-
suits are the worst that can happen
In the absence of such extraordinary
rain fall and resultant floods as to
totally exceed the capacity Of all the
works Under these conditions the
water reaching the general vicinity Of
the lower lock would no longer be con-
fined within the channel, and much
of 1t would escape by other means
than the sluice gates. It Is highly
probable that II it could be confined
within a channel that would deliver
it to the sluice gates, the gates would
still handle it,
The plan for the dams at the head
of canals provides for four sluice gates
in each dam with an aggregate area
Of 128 square feet. Under the most
unfavorable conditions, with the canal
flowing full. and the lake at level
only one foot higher than the water
in the canal on the lower side of the
dam, these sluice gates would have a
discharging capacity of not less than
900 cubic feet per second. The capac-
fly OF the canal under the same condi-
lions Is 476 cubic feet per second"
I'VE desire to emphasize at this
point that the sluice gates provided in
the dams have in all cases and under
the most unfavorable conditions, a
discharging capacity greater than the
carrying capacity of the canal when
running bank-fulL

the most striking feature about the
proposed plan is the proposition to
build the locks without a Golfer dam.
So far az We know this has not been
done before, but we believe 1t can be
successfully done IN this case. The
plan for building the locks without
a Golfer dam ia based on the prac-
ticabtlity of setting up forms for sec
lions on the wall. sealing them at tho
bottom on the outside, then pumping
them out so that access can be had
to the foundation before any masonry
