La ELANO DEFEATED
DaDE CITY YESTERDAY

Lakeland So, Eade City / was the
score in yesterdays same Of basket
ball between Lakeland and Dade City.
Revcn2e never was swceter than
yesterday 2f.c. noon when the l.. II.
5. basketball team administered a
thorough drubbing to the Dade City
IL. S. team, thus, in a measure, re-
trieying the laurels lost to the base
ball team of that city.
Flushed with their recent victories
on the baseball field the boys from
our ncighboring city expected to
show us how to play that game called
basketball in a manner worthy of the
mighty warriors from Dade City. Be
fore the game had fair start, how
ever, our opponents realized that the
Lakeland hich school had team
worthy Of her standing among the
hieh schools of the State. ard show
ing us how to play basketball was not
the simple proposition they had
fondly imagined it to be.
The lineup was as follows:
l.. Fl. S. D. c. H. S.
Mcharg ....... G. ..... Ziegler
Philips ...... l.. F. ..... Myrick
llctherinSton. R. F.. Craig, Irwin

In the first half Lakeland scored as
follows:

In both halves Lakeland foulcd
but four times as opposed to ten

Time of Halves-20 minutes.
Referees Lawler and Grundahl.
mpire-lrwin of Dadc City.

The game was fast and snappy
rom start to finish and in spite of
he overwhelming score was exciting
hrouohout. Those who missed 1t
missed treat indeed. The Lake

md team work than in any previous

bite Of A MAD
DOG RESULTS IN
WOMAN'S DEATH
Mrs. G. L. Carlyle of 0ttumwa Sue
cumbs Seven Weeks After
Being Bitten.

Ottumwa, Nov. 1.-The bite of a
dog received more than seven weeks
ago resulted in the death from n.y.
drophobia of Mrs. G. l.. Carlyle of
Ottumwa.
Although treated at the state
pasteur institute in Iowa City fol-
lowing the bite Mrs. Carlyle develop
ed the disease, first feeling badly on
Sunday. Wednesday she suffered
commissions and these continued un-
til her death in the hospital last
night.
Her 5-year-old daughter, who was
bitten at the same time, was also
treated at Iowa City, but neither of
the victims reached the institute I'M
til two days after being bitten. To
this is attributed by physicians the
failure of the treatment to prove eff
fective in the mothers case.
Two pigs bitten by the same dog
died of hydrophobia The dog has
been killed, but his head was so
badly shattered in shooting him
that it was impossible to send it to
Iowa City for analysis.

A RIVER BOAT
PICKS CHANNEL
IN THE storm
Keokuk Has Unusual Experience
Finding Way in Falling
Snow.

KeOkuk, Ia, Nov. 1.-The steamer
Keokuk ran into snow storm Thurs
day night between Keokuk and Fort
Madison. This is unusual, although
some of the older river men tell stor-
les of the boats plying the river in
an opening in the ice caused by
swift currents in the early days.
The Keokuk. with Capt. Walter
Blair at the wheel, carrying a big
freight list but few passengers pick
ed her way through the snow storm
in good speed and landed close to
schedule time at the local wharf.
This is practically the last of the
boats to continue in the trade. The
other boats all are being put into
winter quarters. The lock will close
Nov. Is, at which time all naviga-
ton will cease.
One of the old steamboat men yes
terday recalled an incident of the
early '70s. He said that one winter
he piloted a boat through the ice,
which was open in the middle of the
river, and that people were skating
on the more solid ice close to shore.

pushed through the shutters of a
window. 1t futtered down before
the feet of citizen, who notified
the police. A spectacular raid Of
the place followed and two prisoners
were taken.
The girl told the police that she
left her mothers home on the night
of Oct. 23 with a young man she had
met few days previously, to attend
dance. Her escort took her, instead,
to the fiat from which she was res
cued. There she met man and
woman who confiscated her clothes
and watched her closely
John Hamilton, driver, one Of
the girls alleged captors, was lock-
ed up on a charge Of abduction. A
girl companion was charged with
disorderly conduct. She said her
name was Elizabeth Clark and the
police, searching their records, found
that her disappearance from home
had been reported month ago by
her father and that a general alarm
for her, too, had been issued.
Late yesterday afternoon detec-
tives arrested John Conklin, driv-
err, on a charge of having taken the
Mclaughlin girl away from her
home and kept her prisoner. The
charge against the Clark girl was
changed to one of abduction and the
three prisoners were locked up in
default of $4,000 bail each for ex-
animation today.

DER|NC ADMIRAL
Widow, Cleared of Crime, Thanks
Each of the Jurors for His
Verdict.

Plymouth, Mass, Oct. 31.-Mrs.
Jennie May Eaton was acquitted of
the charge of the murder of her hus-
band, Rear Admiral Joseph G. Eaton,
by the verdict of the jury rendered
at $40 O'Clock yesterday morning.
Notwithstanding that there seemed
little prospect as the night wore on
of a verdict before morning, a crowd
of nearly 200 persons sat out the
tedious night.
Mrs. Eaton had sat up in priv
ate room at the court house until 2
O'Clock yesterday morning. Then she
was permitted to go to the judges
lobby, where she slept on couch
until awakened at 4:30 and sum-
moned to the court room. Of the
200 persons who remained all night
to hear the verdict, a few We're
women.
After the foreman had announced
the verdict, Chief Justice Aiken
warned the jurors to keep secret the
proceedings in the jury room.
After Mrs. Eaton had left the
court room the Jurors through their
foreman asked that they might be
allowed to meet her. The permits
sion was granted and they formed a
semi-circle in the corridor. Mrs.
Eaton came out from the judges
lobby and thanked them individual
ly. AS she did so she burst into tears
for the first time since her trial
started.

PRESIDENT AD-
N|TS THAT HE
MAY ACT SOON
Possibility That Next Mexican Step
Will Be Decided
Action.
HUERTA MUST BE OUSTED
His Elimination Considered Neces-
sary Basis of Any New
Plan.
MUST BE OUSTED

Washington, D. c., Oct. 81
President Wilson let it be known
yesterday that he was waiting for
things to take definite shape in Mex
leo as a result of the election last
Sunday and that the United States
government would not act until in
formed in detail of what took place
at the polls.
Recently the president, in a note
to the Mexican foreign office, trans
mitted by Charlie O'Shaughnessy, de-
clared the election of Oct. &c would
OF be considered constitutional by
the United States. How long the
United States will wait for the re-
turns is not known. 1t is believed
that several days, perhaps weeks,
will elapse before the Huerta gov
eminent, handicapped by difficulties
of communication, will be able Of
ficially to record the result, though
Nov. 10 was the day set for the
counting of the ballots.
No positive information as to the
governments future course was d.
vulged at the White House. The
president informed those who dis
cussed the situation with him that
he had not decided whether the next
step would be made known by words
or action. He is at work, on plan
by which he hopes to solve the
troubles of Mexico.
One of the features Of it Is for
NAL statement Of the aims and pur-
poses of the United States, it's stand
against the influence of material in
terests. in Latin-American affairs, its
devotion to the cause of constitu-
tional government on this hemis-
phere and it's belief that fair and
free election with safeguards and
guarantees must be held in order to
establish a legal authority in the
southern republic.
This statement of the govern
ment's attitude already outlined in
the presidents speeches at Mobile
and Swarthmore in all probability
will be communicated to Mexico and
a copy Of these views transmitted to
foreign governments generally as an
of policy by the Wash
ington administration.
Whether the statement of the gov
eminent policy will be addressed to
John Lind, or Charge O'Shaughnessy
for presentation to the Huerta ad-
has not been made
known. 1t has been suggested fut-
ure communications may also be ad-
dressed in some way to the consti-
thereby recognizing
them as factor in the problem of
pacification.
Many conversant with the situa-
ton insisted yesterday any new plan
must have as it's basis some method !
Of eliminating Huerta before the
constitutionalists would consent to
talking peace or elections.
The attitude Of the European pow
ers was explained as awaiting the
policy Of the United States. Inquiry
IS to whether the foreign govern
l.
If their cooperation brought about
he reply that they had not commit
ed themselves, but at present were
not standing in the way of the
American government.

United Mine workers of America,
negotiations for the peaceful sur
render of arms were under way and,
it was said, these would continue
throughout the day. 1t was not the
intention of General Chase to have
the troops, which earlier left Trini-
dad, enter the tent colony yesterday.
General Chase reported to the gov
ernor that the situation was quiet.
The artillery and cavalry which
started for Ludlow yesterday morn
ing to force disarmament OF the
strikers in that district were order
ed back to the Trinidad camp at
noon yesterday. General Chase an
nounced that no further attempt to
disarm the Ludlow strikers would be
made pending the outcome of con-
ference between the adjutant gen
eral, John r. Lawson, district Or
ganizer of the United Mine workers
of America, and Governor Ammons.

New York, Nov. 1.-The steamer
that arrived last night from Vera
Cruz with Mrs. John Lind, wife o.
President Wilson's special envoy
brought also two Mexican legisla
tors, who owe their liberty, if moi
their lives, to her quick wit ant
generosity. To save the two Mex.
leans from arrest at Vera Cruz Mrs
Lind hid them in her state room anG
sat up all night on deck until the
boat left port and the officers of the
Heurta government had gone ashore
A week ago the cables brought
word that the Ward liner Morrc
Castle had been detained at Vera
Cruz while Huerta's agents searched
for eight rebelious members of the
legislature of the state of Vera Cruz
Until the MORO Castle arrived here
last night only those aboard knew
that two of the eight deputies had
escaped arrest. These two, AdolfC
Dominguez and Miguel A. Cordera
say they will stay in New York un-
til Mexico becomes a safer home for
the opponents of Huerta.
Mrs Lind said that her husband,
the special envoy, had expected to
come home after the Mexican cleo
ton Now she did not know when
he would come.
1--WE expected that the MORO
Castle would sail from Vera Cruz"
said Mrs. Lind. Eat 4 o'clock on the
afternoon of Oct. 23. Then Captain
Fluff was subpoenaed to testify re-
garding the flight of DR.. Francisco
Vasuuez Gomez. who has sailed on
the Moro Castle five months before.
Later we learned that the real rea-
son for our detention was that the
government wished to search the
ship for eight state Legislators from
Jalapa. They arrested six of these
men. but they did not find the 9TH
ers; and I'll tell you why.
"While the search was going on,
the friends of these two men learn
ed that was aboard and they came
with tears in their eyes begging me
to help them. I said, Here's the
key to my stateroom. Take it
THAT was all they needed.
spent the night on deck and the two
men hid in my room until the de-
tectives gave up the search and
went ashore. The ship was released
and we sailed at 5 o'clock the next
morning"
The wife of the special envoy is
a housewifely little woman with
quiet manners and a low voice, but
her eyes flashed as she asserted:
81 couldn't bear to think of those
men being taken ashore and hang
ed. just had to do something for
them"

PRODUCTS Of SOIL
MAKE HUGE TOTAL
Government Figures for 1913
Show Approximate Value
of $4,000, 900, 900

WASHINGTON. Dec. 15.-Final es-
Inmates of production and value OF
Ia of the important crops which form
a part of the enormous grand total.
100000. Of wealth produced on farms
through the soil and farmers live
stock during 1913 were announced to-
day by the crop reporting board bu-
riculture. The figures are the official
government estimates of acreage,
production and value, based on prices
paid to farmers on December l.
These IL crops are only a portion
of the production of the soil which
approximates $4,000, ,000,0 900 in value
each year. The total value of the
animal products of the farm Is esti-
mated at about $4,000, 100000 annu-
THE production of crops in the
United States in 1913 was materially
belo wthe average" the secretary Of
nounces. "the yield per acre of all
crops combined being smaller than
in any year of the last decade. with
the exception Of 1911 This shortage
companied by excessive heat during
the summer months. in an important
portion of the agricultural district of
the United States. and particularly
in Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and
adjacent states.
'Inasmuch as crop production OF
1912 was unusually large, a greater
proportion than usual has been car
ried into the present crop. which
should mitigate somewhat the effects
of the shortage of this years crops.
The corn crop, the most valuable
farm product Of this country, is
smaller than any crop since 1903.
Wheat production is the largest ever
recorded in this country. The crop
was practically rnatured before the
drought became effective.
The oat crop is the third largest
of our history. There has been g.
steady expansion of the area of this
crop. The hay crop is smaller than
the large crop OF 1912 Rather lib
eral rains In the late summer and
fall have produced good pastures. The
cotton crop win perhaps rank fourth
or third in size.
crops comprises about 80 per cent of
the area in all crops, and therefore
has q predominating effect upon the
general average conditions Of all
crops. Nearly all the minor crops
were materially smaller this year
than in 1912 and the per acre yields
below their average.
To the producers the leSsened crop
production this year is largely COM
pensated by the increased prices re-
ceived for their produce; for, al
though the total crop production is
approximately IL per cent smaller
than last years production. the av-
erage level of prices is higher than
last year
