STIMSON COMMANDS
CAVALRY AT DRILL
Secretary Of War Realizes Secret An
biion to Drill Troop at
Fort Myer.

With but three more days in which to
exercise the privileges and fulfill the
duties Of the Secretary of War, Henry L.
Stimson this morning realized what he
described as "a secret ambition Of the
last six years.
Bright and early, hours before any of
his Office work were at their posts, Sec
retary Stimson rode over to Fort Myer.
Va, yesterday morning, and drilled a
squadron of cavalry. For half an hour
he put the men of Troop A, Fifteenth
Cavalry, through their PAGES, the only
damage resulting being a huskiness of
the Secretary's voice. Capt. Leroy e.
tine, who commands Troop A, was a
spectator to the drill, and indorsed the
Secretary's knowledge Of the drill man.
ual
Mr.. Stimson used to be a member of
Squadron A, the fashionable cavalry or
ganization of New York. He admitted
yesterday that he had to brush up con-
siderably on tactics before attempting
the drill. 1t is Mr.. Stimson's belief that
no other Secretary of War in recent
years has actually put a troop of United
States cavalry through the drill.

LARGE COAL PROFITS.
Anthracite Companies Make Mil
lions. Says Nein.

According to a report of Commissioner
Of Labor Charles p. Neill, sent to Con-
gress yesterday, the anthracite coal COM
panies of Pennsylvania made through in
creased prices and suspension of dis
counts to retailers during 1912 additional
profits of 1S45O,OO0.
The report says. however, that these in
creases in net profits were only nominal
in part, because out of them had to be
paid the cost of the six weeks cessation
of mining operations in April and May.
1872. and also the increase in wages of
employees resulting from the strike settle
ment made May 20 last year. 1t is stated
that the anthracite mine workers were
benefited by this peace agreement
through a net increase in their wages OF
$40 per cent.
The mine workers also benefited. the
report states. by the partial recognition
Of their organization both in the negotia-
tions and in the form in which the agree
nent was signed.
The 5 $40 per cent increase in wages
represents an increase of from to 10
cents per ton in the cost of producing
coal and on the basis of the shipment
from June to December. 1872, amounted
in round numbers to s4OOo,O0O.

'MaderO, who was comparatively un-
known man three years ago. overthrew
Porfirio Diaz the man OF iron. the idol
of the Mexican army. The officers of the
army. when Porfirio DiaZ relinquished
the reins Of government. did not transfer
their allegiance to Madero. II was with
them. Viva the supreme government and
never Viva Madero Again. Madero was
not a harsh man; he did not have the
dispC to order a man shot, be the
crime committed little or great. On the
other hand, ProfirO DiaZ. besides being
a great general "a fact that few Amer
leans are aware Of. and understanding
men and how TO command them had no
heSitancy in ordering shot any and every
man who opposed him. In the later years
of Porfirio DiaZs reign he was held up TO
the world at large a great man, as
great ruler. which he was: and to this
cause is ascribed his reluctancy to shoot
Bernardo Reyes when the latter. as Gov
ernor of Nuevo Leon, ordered his adher-
ents, on April > 1866, to fire on parade
composed of partisanS of Porfirio Diaz
in the main plaza of Monterey. For the
same reason. Porfirio Diaz refrained from
having Madero killed in 1870 when Ma
dero made A tour Of all the States of the
Republic of Mexico and openly spoke
against Porfirio Diaz
IF the Huerta-Diaz administration is
not a success. il is difficult TO hazard a
guess as to what will succeed in Mexico.
Huerta and Diaz are two strong men,
and the policy of the iron hand. which 1t
is understood they have adopted Is the

Makes Prediction that in Fifty Years

Stopping at a local hotel is ]. J. Mac
league, of Mexico. Mr.. MacTeague is
here with his wife and fourteen-year- -old
son, and has come with the intention of
placing the latter at military academy
in Virginia. They came to Washington
by way of New Orleans, Havana, Cuba,
and St. Augustine, Fla. stopping a week
at each of the aforementioned places.
Mr.. MacTeague lives in the State of
Durango, and at a point on the Mexican
Central Railroad half way between FL
Paso, Tex, and the City of Mexico. lie
is the owner of 81. .e00-acre ranch in Du-
range and Zacatecas.
In speaking of Madero. he said:
Apart from effective suffrage and
higher wages that Madero offered to the
poems, or the lowest class of Mexico.
Madero also offered to split up the big
haciendas. or ranches. and divide them
among these self-same poems.
The Mexican peon is not thrifty; he
earns on an average IS cents gold per
day or less: his children rarely, If ever.
60 to school. and the word ambition is
not in his vocabulary. Madero's scheme
was to have the government buy or stand
good for the purchase of the large hacien-
das and then to divide the land up in
small parcels. and sell II to the peon al
ngure that would cover the nrst cost
plus the interest on the money invested.
Madero actually started this land divi-
sion proposition. and while many scoffed
at his efforts. the probabilities are that
he would actually have carried out this
land division scheme had he been given
a chance There is no doubt of Madcro
having been a we'll educated and intell
gent man. There are many thinking men
who are of the opinion that. fifty years

sfble that legal action may determine to
what extent recommendations from the

the attorney general two complaints
against the Erie railroad for such action
as he may think proper.
The practice of the company is to COM

charge Of 10 cents is collected on the
train to send the cash fare slip to the
New York office for redemption.
The commission recommended that this
fare be returned to the passenger upon
presentation of the coupon to any of the

LOSS SINCE JANUARY |
MAKES RECORD OF YEARS
Damage to Deep-sea Vessels and
Wreckage on Coast Foots Up
Many Millions.

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE year 1918
has proved thus far the most disastrous
that ship owners on both sides Of the
Atlantic have experienced in three months
in nearly fifty years. Correct estimates
Of the loss caused by the series of storms
that have swept the coasts Of Europe
and America are difficult to obtain, but
one authority, who based his figures on
the Lloyds reports. said that the damage
to deep-sea vessels alone would amount
to $4,000 This does not include the
loss suffered by the coasting trade of
the United States. estimated at several
millions.
During the month Of January alone
one agency reported the loss or partial
wreckage of 328 sailing vessels and $40
steamships. January was the month OF
tho largest number of wrecks. The es-

American shippers. it is said, will have
to depend hereafter largely upon barges
and steam freighters.
The price of all ocean vessels has
risen. A member of the maritime ex-
change said today that it cost almost
twice as much to buy ship now as 1T
did three years ago. This increase is due
to the rise in the cost Of shipbuilding
materials The rise In marine insurance
rates, which was started by the loss Of
the Titanic, has received additional I'M
pulse from the large number OF recent
wrecks.
