Washington without Documents.

Washington, Nov. 27-The official
documents asking for the extradition
of former President Zelaya on charges
of numbering two countrymen in MIC
aragua had not been received at the
state department today and what was
to have been q hearing became merely
a conference between Solicitor Folk and
Cory M. Stadden, tho former dictators
attorney. In the meantime Zelaya was
a prisoner In New York. where he was
arrested last night.
Zelaya's extradition is asked in con-
nection with the death Of Domingo
Toribio and Sixto Pineda, at Masaya,
April 21, 1901. No mention Of his sum-
mary execution of the Americans, Cam
non and Groce, in 1903, is made In! the
papers. according to advlces here.
Diplomatists point out that under
the extradition treaty with Nicaragua
Zelaya could not be prosecuted for the
killing o4 Cannon and Groce unless his
extradition ia specifically asked for
that purpose. Furthermore, under the
treaty. should ho be acquitted of the
alleged murders. he would have a

Departs For England Declaring She'll
Return For More Money.
New York, Nov. 27.-Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst, and 10000 good American
dollars started back to England yester-
day on board the steamship Majestic.
She said that this money was going
into the war chest o1sthe militants and
that she was coming back to the Unit
ed States for more next year unless
women got the vote.
The arrival in this country Of Mrs.
Pankhurst, when she had to make q
brief stay on Ellis island, will be moth
ing compared with the reception pre-
pared for her at plymouth when she
lands. She has heard that the police
are to meet her and she has cabled
abroad for q bodyguard.
About the last thing she did before
going on board the Majestic was to
cable to Mrs. Flora Drummond-"Gen-
erar" Drummond-to take charge of a
division of the army
When the Majestic reaches Plymouth

Joan Wickham, her very good looking
secretary, said amen to this.

marry?" asked one Of the reporters Of
Miss Wickham.
II certainly do" she replied.
"How can woman marry and be
militant and take care Of the babies

ton. 1t did not bother Miss Wickham
a minute.

these leaders could assure him there
would be no further trouble.
Tho labor officials said they would
investigate and inform the mayor OF

ise that they would not take any fur

ceedings until o'clock Friday after

ignation. will be succeeded by Harry Il.

Needed to Protect Pipe Lines Il
Tampico Center Of Attack.

Washington. Nov. s7.-while Rear
Admiral Fletcher has obtained formal
pledges from tho rebel general. Aguilar,
that there shall be no interference with
foreign OIL properties about Tuxpam
there ts some concern as to whether
that Is broad enough to cover the
rather serious situation at Tampico.
State department officials will feel
easier when they hear OF the arrival
Of tho admiral on his temporary flag
ship Rhode Island at Tampico. The
battleships Nebraska and nIichian are
already at Tampico and their COM
manders have been instructed to look
after American and foreign interests
It is thought at the navy department
there is little danger Of any acton near
Tampico that would threaten actual
destruction of the great Oil tanks at
that port. Tho no specific instructions
have been given to the American naval
commanders they are expected to act
on their own discretion in protecting
the properties.
Would Need Small Army.
The real danger, II any existed,
would lie in interference with pipe
lines running into the interior from
Tampico. Naval officers estimate that
1t would require small army to pro-
tect the wells and pipe lines. The
lifting Of a cap from one of the gush-
ers and the ignition Of the rushing
streams Of oil might carry widespread
disaster down 70 the coast.
Rear Admiral Fletcher. it Is expect
ed, viii undertake first to get into
communication with the insurgent
leaders near Tampico and induce them
to respect the pledges given by Gen.
eral Aguilar.
Admiral Fletcher at Tampioo.
Later today the navy department re-
ceiyed delayed dispatches reporting
Rear Admiral FHetcher's arrival at
Tampfco and also the arrival OF the
British cruiser Suffolk with Rear Ad-
miral Craddock. Nothing new was res
ported in the situation.

p. M-Gioom Affects Business.

r. M-Glo0m Anecto Business.
Chicago. Nov. 27.-Nov. 2s. 1918, will
go down In the history OF Chicago as
the "long night" Darkness hovsred
over the city from p. m. Tuesday un-
til dawn today. At . o'clock yester-
day afternoon 1t was impossible to
read a newspaper on the streets in the
loop district. It was one OF the dark
est days In the city's history.
Traffic way seriously hampered in
the loop and the. headlights Of the
street cars were kept lighted through
out the day. Heavy clouds from which
a fine, misty drizzle fell on the streets
sank low over the tall buildings, and
accompanied by dense fog, gave the
loop streets the appearance Of damp,
gloomy canyons. All Of the lights In
the office buildings were turned on
all day. The darkness hampered the
transaction Of business and work out
doors. Cash grain sales were few be-
cause the gloom made it hard to judge
quality.
At no time during the day was the
daylight stronger than that which ac-
companies a winter twilight. Old resi-
dents declared that never before with
in their recollections had darkness set
tied over the city for such q long period.
]. H. Armington. weather forecaster,
declared, however, that Chicago had
experienced days within the records Of
his department in which the darkness
had been more dense. These periods
were OF shorter duration, he asserted,
and usually preceded a thunderstorm.
He attributed the gloom of yesterday
to the low velocity Of the wind. which
was incapable of driving away the low
hanging clouds and fog and the smoke
which lowered over tho city.
"These days come In cold, wet wealth
er and the condition usually lasts for
a number of days." he said. 1T &C.
ours only when the wind Is so light as
not to carry the smoke away. and the
sooty particles become coated with
moisture from the fog and settle in the
strata near the surface. The heavy
clouds above prevent immediate dissi-
patton by the heat from the sun. It
is seldom. however. that this condition
prevails after the middle of the day, as
by that time the wind usually reaches
a velocity sufficient to relieve the Sit
uation."
There have been forty five such days
in Chicago during the last eleven years.
according to Mr.. Armstrong. Eleven Of
these were marked with the intense
darkness Of night. He asserted that he
did not believe the conditions yester-
day indicative of q storm.

El Paso. Tex. Nov. 27.-Pancho Villa
announced today that he would leave
tomorrow with his rebel army for Chi
huahua to attack the federals. who re-
treated Tuesday night after attempting
to take Juarez from him. He believes
that other rebel forces have inter-

he would be able to capture the entire
command or annihilate it..
Today was an off day in Juarez. Villa
and most of his officers attended the

REBELS THREATEN OIL TANKS.
Federal Commander at Tampieo
Qrdared 70 Remove Gunboat.

Mexico CITY. Nov. 27.-'Remove the
gunboat Bravo or we shall fire on the
oil tanks in the city Of Tampico and
along the banks Of the river above"
This threat, according to private In
formation received here was sent to
the commander Of the federals at Tam
pico yesterday. So long as the garri-
son at Ta1npico is aided by the guns
of the Bravo, which is anchored In the
river Just of fiscal pier, there appears
to be little chance for the rebels to
capture and hold the city.
fsut they might easily devastate the
entire region by carrying out this
threat to shoot up the tanks and fire
the oil, estimated at 100000 barrels.
Should the oil in the tanks up-river
be fired, the floating flames would be
carried into the heart of the city, most
effectually removing the menace Of
fered by the gunboat, destroy all
shipping and probably a part OF the
town.
Little Faith in Promises.
That the rebels will carry out their
threat Is regarded by some OF the OF
aoia1s here as by no means improb-
chic aItho foreigners owning property
