Policemen Seize and Destroy
Part of Edition.
APPEAL TO U. S. AMBASSADOR
International Complications
May Be the Result.
Newsboys Parade Street Pro-
testing Against Action.

Mexico City, March 30.--Despite the
orders of the police the Heraldo, the
evening edition of the Mexican Her
aid, was printed at noon and copies of
the paper We're thrown to the street,
from windows of the building and the
roof. Fifty policemen who had been
stationed in front of the building
seized and destroyed many of the
pers, but a large number of them,
ertheless. gained circulation. Fl. e
men were called out to aid the police.
The affair aroused both Indignation
and amusement among the large
crowd that witnessed the scene.
Mana ger Paul Hudson of the Her
aldo, chose to ignore verbal notice
that publication of the paper had been
prohibited, but gave no reason for the
order being issued. 1t is generally be-
lieved that objection of the govern
ment was due to the revolutionary
news printed by the paper which was
considered unfavorable to the govern
ment.
After the first efforts at defiance of
the prohibition, Mr.. Hudson referred
the matter to the American ambassa-
dor, Henry Lane Wilson, who ap-
proved of his action. Mr.. Wilson's
opinion was that even had written no
tice been served of suppression with
out court procedure it would have
been unwarranted- The ambassador
Washington.
General Gonzal Espinosa, editor of
Ell Heraldo, was fined $5 on a charge
of permitting untruthful matter of
detriment to the government to be
published.
The fact that a newspaper owned by
an American corporation was singled
out for suppression aroused much
comment, the Mexican newspapers
having attacked the administration
viciously and published equally un-
favorable news items.
The suppression of the dispatches of
the Associated Press also was referred
to Ambassador Wilson and President
Madero. The latter said much matter
that was being transmitted from GEN
eral Orozco's camp was being censored
by Orozco and was exaggerated or un-
true. Mr.. Hudson said:
Il feel that we hSA e been made the
victims of arbitrary and illegal pro-
cedure. We will investigate fully our
rights and all the legal aspects of the
case and take such steps as may be
found expedient to protect our inter
ests. The Heraldo will not appear
again until it can do so without fear
of intimidation and interference with
free utterance and danger of Illegal
repression
After the suppression of the Her
aldo, 200 newsboys paraded the streets
in protest against the stopping of their
means of livelihood.

HER SHAME TOLD
Woman Says Husband Used
Money Sent Her
BY Admirer She Knew Three
Years in Wichita.

Denver, March 30.-The Post says:
"On a self-announced errand of ex-
tortion 10 force money from John
Schrock. a wealthy lumberman OF
Wichita, an admirer of his wife, Percy
Wulf, a Denver waiter, son of a rich
hotel man of East Islip, n. Y, died
yesterday in a Wichita hospital of a
fractured skull. the result of a fall
from the windcw of his sleeping room
in a Wichita hotel to the pavement.
The man was picked up Monday night
by a patrolman and died the following
morning without regaining conscious
ness.
Mrs. Mamie wulf, the wife. admits
a friendship with Schrock dating back
herself III the Kansas city, which be-
gan three years ago and ended last
November. Mrs. Wulf was formerly
Miss Mamie Geyer, is a cousin of Pa
trolman Campbell of the Denver po-
lice force.
"Since returning to Denver Mrs. Wulf
says she has received several substan-
tial remittances from her Wichita adj
mirer, and it was her refusal to divide
this income with her husband that re-
suited in the couple separating and
Wulfs threat to sue Schrock for $500
for alienation of his wife's affections.
1t was for this he went to Wichita three
weeks ago.
My husband never supported me
after we came to Denver said Mrs.
Wulf this morning. It is true I re-
ceived money from Mr.. Schrock but 1
can not remember how much. 1t was
considerable. Out of it I supported my
husband until we quarreled the second
week in January
According to the wife, Wulf was
given to debauches and alcoholic ex-
cesses, and after he discovered that
Schrock's remittances were arriving
regularly he avoided employment. He
did no work after returning to DEN
yer. and in Wichita secured and lost
a number of positions because of
drunk enness. Affection between the
couple evidently was long dead for
Mrs. Wulf declares that she has no
funds to bury her husband and re-
quests that the body be sent to the
parents in the east.

name in the case has startled Wichita
social and business circles. He is
worth several hundred thousand dol
lars, owns large lumber business, is
married and the father of two chill
