Wilson and the Nsn ..

Another instance. and a most ,,hring
one. OF President Wilson's forge tful.
ness. or It seems. more like sbsolute
and wihul disregard, of the fact that
he was elected to serve all the people
OF the United States and not a certain
part thereof. and one which involves
the sincerity Of his New Freedom"
ideas, is seen in his nomination of a
white man to succeed negro as minis
ter TO Haiti.
Ihis. together with the announ ced
purpose Of Postmaster General Burles-
on to segrcgate the negro clerks in his
department. and the failure of the ad-
tninistration to put through the nomins
ton Of negro democrat as registrar Of
the treasury In Oklahoma, dispels ali
semblancc Of the very thought Of
freedom. new or old. 1t may be par
donable for the: :southerners in congress
and in the cabinet to display their feel
ings toward tho negro. but II N be-
comes the president OF the United
States to allow his actions as distin-
gushing between the white man and
the colored man. with discretion. The
president is certainly going to the ex-
trcmcs Of exhibiting his southern blood
OF the negro when he sends white
man as minister to black republic, an
office that has nearly always gone to
the colorcd race.
II may be that the threat Of the
southern senators that they will bitter.
ly resist the appointment of negroes to
any important federal Office has some
thing to do with the president recalling
the name Of A. Z. Patterson ss minis
ter to Haiti. md to weaken In his en-
orts to secure the Endorsement Of the
negro registrar Of the treasury, but
that shows very weak man. and II
certainly reflects little credit on the
high Christian ideals the country has
been led to believe President Wilson
posserses II he is to submit to prejudice
In dealing with this race which has
made such desperate and largely sue
ecssful struggle against disadvantage.

from The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-The Depart
ment OF State received telegram from
Amba ssador Wilson this evening. dated
. p. m. which confirms the arrest OF
President Madero and his brother. Gus
tavo. by the men Of Generals Banquet
and Huerta.
One Of the first dispatches received
from Ambassador Wilson to-day indi-
Gated that President MaderO's strength
was rapidly crumbling, and that Diaz
was gradually widening his control or
the capital. Therefore, the later reports
that Madero was ousted caused no
great surprise.
There Is much speculation whether
the retirement Of Madero. as reported
will have the effect of checking the
DiaZ rebellion, as 1t is felt that the
rebel has political aspirations. THIS
phase of the new development suggests
that Diaz may ignore Huerta's aces
sion and continue hostilities until ne IS
in q position to dictate.
The news OF Madero's arrest DID not
deter the War and Navy Department.

There was more or less excitement
among the crew over the unexpected de-

TO think that they might see some real

OFFERINGS OF OCT.
CAUSE BIG BREAK
Good Map and Large Crop Esti-
mate Cause Heavy Liquidation,
Bulls Still Confident.

NEW YORK, Oct. Cuisines at the
opening of the cotton market to-day
was active and the market was weak at
a net decline of to 16 points from the
closing quotations of Saturday. One
Of the chief factors responsible for the
break was the disappearance of the
rainstorm in the southwest. notably in
Texas. The low barometer in the south
west was still located over Kansas.
Naturally the trade laid more stress on
the weather conditions than anything
else.
In addition to this Habersham King
was reported to be out with crop esti-
mate Of $50, 900 bales. He further
states that frost would not reduce the
output per cent because of the crop
being an early one. This helped the
bearish movement along
On the decline there was good buying,
which Steadied the market a little after
the call and the market rallied 2 to 7
points from the opening range.
The Liverpool market was steady at
the outset, but eased in sympathy with
our decline. This, coupled with further
aged active selling by Wall street, Liv-
erpoOl and operators who have bulled

On the other hand, a good bit of buy
