LAWLESSNESS INCREASING
FROM LACK OF PROTECTION
Provisions Scarce and Prices Soar to

ment In Regard to Intervention.
(BV Associated PreSS.l

Mexico City, Feb. 14.-Conditions in
the Mexican capital are steadily grow
ing worse. All business except that
connected with the war has ceased.
The general postoffice has closed its
doors and the employees are carrying
rifles in the ranks of the Federal
army.
To-Day provisions of all kinds are
more scarce than ever and prices
scared to unheard of heights.
Robberies, burglaries and petty
crimes of all kinds are increasing,
owing to the lack of police protection.
Five days fighting in the streets
of the capital has, in the opinion OF
close observers, done more to change
the sentiment of Mexicans in regard
to invention than has the entire two
year period revolution. The subject
is now frankly discussed by Mexicans
and foreigners and frequently Mexican
citizens express opinions publicly that
the United States or some other power
or powers jointly should intervene.

Charleston, W. Va, Feb. 13-The
senatorial bribery situation took a SEN
sational turn yesterday with the ar
rest of Colonel William Seymour Ed
wards, candidate for United States
senator to succeed Clarence w. Wat
son. He is charged with offering
bribes. He was released on bond. The
arrest of Edwards caused excitement
at the capitol, coming as it did after
the arrest Of four representative and
one state senator last Tuesday on
charges of accepting bribes to vote in
favor of Edwards.
In a statement last night Edwards
characterizes the charges against him
as untrue and preposterous. He de-
MED emphatieally he had directly or
indirectly offered or caused to be offer

their votes.

not know had thrust $500 in his pocke
while in a room at local hotel.
Smith declared Rhodes and his com
panion had just offered to pay him $2
900 if he would vote for Edwards. HI
refused, he said, but before he coult
leave the hotel room they had, he al

the jail had been let, and preparations
to build it had been completed.
Strong pressure has been brought to
bear upon the governor of late to COM

was affirmed by the supreme court
hope to escape legal execution was in
an appeal to Governor Brewer. The
latter has carefully gone over all rec
ords in the case, and when he com

/ he did so because the man had a clean
record previous to the time of the
! killing, and that the prisoner had been
beaten by Givens.
Attorneys for the prisoner have been
here for several days, and they were
highly elated yesterday when the gov
ernor signed the document that meant
life to their client They Immediately
telephoned the news to Magnolia
where Higgins received it with great
joy.
Higgins has a wife and three small
children, all of whom have called up
on the governor of late in behalf of
their husband and father.
Givens was shot and killed at Nc

tween the two men, said to have start

insulted Higgins, in the presence of
his wife, and at the same time gave
him a severe thrashing. It was then
that Higgins shot and killed him. At
the trial he claimed self defense, stat
ing he shot Givens when he noticed
that he put his hand to his hip pocket,
and that he believed this move was
to get pistol.

Mexico City, Feb. 14.-Rebels open
ed the battle today at quarter to G.,
when they started firing in the direc-
tion Of the Federal concentration
points. 1t had been expected the Fed
erals would attack first. The first sal
vo from the rebel lines was followed
quickly by series of others in rapid
succession. Then machine guns and
rifles began their whirr and patter,
the fire being concentrated where the
government troops were gathering.
Federal guns did not delay in making
vigorous reply.
BY Z o'clock the firing settled into
steady fusillade. Federal officers
declared their men were preparing to
make a forward movement on the reb-
ell lines.
A constant stream of refugees, most
ly Mexican citizens, we're observed
carrying bundles and scurrying toward
the suburbs from the densely popu-
lated district between the arsenal and
National Palace as soon as the firing
became intense.
In many churches special services
were held by the clergy for restoration
OF peace. Thousands of refugees

Mexico City, Feb. 14.-Without de-

fighting in the capital ended at night
