In an important decision handed
down yesterday afternoon, Judge
Clemens settled the mnch-mooted
question as to whether or not Hause-
mans indictment on the opium
charge was the result of an admis-
sion made by him not voluntarily and
by reason of inducements and repre-
sensations made to him by the U. s.
attorney. Judge Clemens decided that
the affidavit of the defendant contain
ing this charge did not make evident
such confession as the law regards
inadmissable in evidence against the
defendant. Any statement made by
the U. S. attorney to the defendant,
Judge Clemens decided, was made ar
ter the defendant was under suspic-
ion and after he had volunteered to
open the trunk where the opium was
concealed The motion made by the
defendants attorney to quash the in
dictment was therefore denied

All but two war vessels belonging to
the international fleet were destroyed.
7 A revolt had broken out among the
natives on shore, and an attempt to
overthrow the reigning king ana scar

made. The powers represented by the
American warships Trenton, Vandalia
and Nipsic, in COMMAND CT Rear Adj
miral Kimberley; the German war
ships Eber and Olga. and the British
walship Calliope, were playing a neu-
trail part, that of looking after the
safety of the citizens of their respec-
tive countries and protecting their
property.
During the hurricane the Trenton,
the Vandalia, the Eber and Olga were
dashed to pieces on the rocks, and
the Nipsic was driven ashore The
Calliope was the only vessel to es-
cape damage or destruction. More
than fifty American sailors lost their
lives. The Nipsic grounded on the
sandy beach and was fioated with lit
tie difficulty. She was sent to Homo
lulu for repairs, and came from that
port to Bremerton, where she became
a receiving ship in 1892.
The Nipsic has long been worthless
as naval vessel. but her staunch.
hull is still valuable She is 1857 feet
long and Of 100 tons displacement.

the guards who were with Madero at
the time of the shooting.

President Madero was shot and killed
by his own friends. Following Ma
dero's arrest, he was confined in the
city prison at Mexico on the charge
Of treason. One evening It. was or

Ienitentiary, and in obeyance Of these
orders. Maderc, in company with fer

an automobile at night and started to
the new place of confinement under

vious to this, Madero's supporters had
heard of the impending transfer and

attack the automobile and rush Ma
dero and Suarez off to safety. 1t was

smbushed along the road. In the ex-

DIR Ruffe said that he believed that
there would be no intervention by
the United States in the Mexican rev
olution. The crisis has passed, he
said, and the people as a whole have
become tired of fighting and having
their country placed in state of des-
titution. He went On to say that the
people Of Mexico, aside from the resi-
dents of the county CT Sonora, per-

willing to accept him as president.
