GENERz 3 DI1 " NOT
TO 60 TO CAPITOL
Although Requested by Presi-
dent Huerta to do So at
Once in An Invitation.

VERA CRUZ, Oct. 25.-General
Felix Diaz today received a request
from the Mexican government to pro-
coed at once to the federal capital.
Colonel Vtiarrazaga. secretary to the
Mexican minister of war, arrived here
on special train with the invitation,
which was practically an order for
Diaz to accompany him to Mexico City.
Unless Geenral Diaz alters his in
tentions he will not return to the
federal capital Notwithstanding the
invitation which was signed person
ally by Provisional President Hnerta.
Whether Colonel Vidaurrazaga bora
orders to arrest Diaz was not known
this morning. Diaz did not deliver
a formal negative answer to dllerta's
invitation. Huerta's letter urged
Diaz to come to the federal capital
Immediately s'for his own prestige
as well as for that of the govern
ment." 1t was written in affection
ate terms and bore no resemblance
to anhofIlcial command. Colonel vi
daurrazaga's instructions apparently
indicated the necessity OF his return
to the capital today with a reply
from iDiaz.

Jurisdiction of Justices in Anti
Weapon Law Cases is
Questioned.

on the ground that justices of the
peace have no jurisdiction of The
Johnson anti-weapon law, writ OF
habeas corpus is to be applied for in
one OF the higher courts here by the
attorney for Thomas Dickey, the
young man from Braxton county who
was arrested here recently for a,yiola-
ton Of the law by carrying pistol
and who Friday night waived exani-
nation on the charge in Justice T. G..
Nicewarner's court.
The minimum sentence OF six
months work on the county roads and
a fine of $50 and costs was Imposed
upon him by the justice. Another
reason to be advanced for granting the
writ OF habeas corpus Is that that is
sue was not Joined in this case. The
decision of circuit judges in Taylor,
Ohio and other counties that justices
have no jurisdiction of cases under
the statute will also be setforth.
The defendant in the case is the
young man who was recently arrest
ed here with his father, elias Russell
DickeyI alleged escaped penitentiary
convict, who was taken to the Mounds
ylllebrlson from the Harrison county
Jail to serve a sentence of fourteen
years for murder committed four
teen years ago in Braxton county.
Habeas corpus proceedings are to be
undertaken in the elder Dickey's case,
also, on the basis OF a state supreme
court holding that convicted crim-
inal who has had his liberty for n
period extending longer than the term
of his sentence shall be presumed to
have suffered the penalty.

Tells Jury She Had to Dis

Of Admiral's Conduct.
lNSULTED Her DAUGHTER
Testifies That Admiral Died
from Overdose of a Drug
He Used So Much.

PLYHfoU UTII. Mass. Oct. 25-The
appearance OF the defendant on the
stand today brought a climax to the
trial of Jennie May Eaton, charged
with causing the death OF her nus
band, Rear admiral Eaton.
Counsel for the defense had led
up to her testimony by calling dur
ing the last two days, numerous
witnesses who described Rear Adj
miral Eaton as having been fire.
quently under the influence OF
liquor or drugs. Today counsel
sought to draw from her own lips,
Mrs. Eaton's story of her life with
the admiral.
1T Is the, contention OF the defense
that the man died from an overdose
OF a drug, which he had been ac-
customed TO using.
Mrs. Eaton was calm and self
possessed as she began her testi-
mony. The jurors gave close atten-
ton to her story, which she told in
a clear voice addressing herself al
ways to her senior counsel. William
Morse.
Under the questioning of the at
torney Mrs. Eaton described her
early life. She was born at Alex
andria, Va, thirty-nine years ago,
she said. Her family later removed
to Michigan, then TO Washington,
where she met her first husband, ID.
III. Ainsworth. Her life with Aims
worth was unhappy. She said that
her husband lost two positions and
that she was forced to aid in the
support of the family, selling books
from house TO house.
During her early life with Aims
worth, she and her two children
lived successfully at Washington,
Guthrie, Okla, St. Louis, Chicago
and then returned to Washington,
where she bought house, paying
$1,000 down. Later she was forced
to sell the house.
Mrs. Eaton said that she placed
her daughter in school at Fred
erick, Md, and then took up nurs-
ing. In September, 1905, she went
to Admiral tEatons Washington
home to attend the admiraPs first
wife. The patient died few weeks
later but the witness remained at the
home to take care of the admiral.
who had been drinking heavily.
Later she accompanied him to Bos-
ton at his request and because of his
"pitiable condition" Before meet
ing Admiral Eaton she had taken
steps to obtain divorce IRON Aims
worth and while attending the ad-
miral she received her final divorce
papers. During her stay in Wash
ington she and Admiral Eaton dis
cussed the possibility of their mar
riage, which the adiriral said would
be best for both. They were mar
ried at Boston July &c, 1906. They
began housekeeping on an elaborate
scale in Brookline but because OF
their debts and the admiral's intern
perance, Mrs, Eaton decided to buy
place in the country. She said
that she had to discharge three
maids from the Brookline home be-
cause of the admirai's attention to
them. She added that her husband
had insulted her daughter, June.
