EMILIO MADERO KILLED
Shot With His Band of Rebels On a
Mountain Defile.

Mexico City, Feb. 26.-Emilio Ma.
dero, another brother of the slain
president. was shot to death at Mon.
terey, 300 miles from here, in the
state of Nueva Leon.
Emilio Madero was regarded by the
Huerta government as the greatest
surviving menace to its existence.
Upon the summary death of his broth.
er he took to the hills near Monterey.
He was speedily joined by a formid-
able army Of more than 1000.
The rebel leader was slain when he
with so os his followers was suddenly
confronted by troop Of federals on
mountain defile. There was no es-
cape. The contest was unequal, and
in short time the Maderistas were
exterminated.
If Sonora Madero and her party has
left Mexico, as reported, there is not
now one of the Madero family left in
Mexico. First Gustavo Madero was
killed; then Francisco, the president,
for whom the others fought; then AL
berto, if apparently sIthentic reports
from Chihuahua are TO be believed
and now Emilio.

TURNS over BACILLl
TO THE GOVERNMENT
Doctor friedman Here With His
tuberculosis Cure.

New York, Feb. 26. - The United
States government took official recog.
milton Of the claim of DR.. Frederick
T. Friedman to the discovery of a
cure for tuberculosis when, by the
order Of the surgeon general, a physi-
clan on the United States marine hos
pital service DR.. Milton H. Foster,
was sent to meet the young German
physician on his arrival here,
At the request Of the government
surgeon, DR.. Friedman consented to
turn over a quantity of his bacilli to
be tested by the government and to
demonstrate the efficiency of his cure
before physicians Of the hospital SER
vice. He agreed to meet laboratory
expert Of the government in this city
to arrange for the demonstration,
which will be tried on tuberculosis
patients.
DR.. Friedman, who comes to this
country at the invitation of Charles
e. Finlay, a New York banker, who
hopes the physician will be able to
cure his son-in-law Of the disease, de-
clared that his remedy was not a se-
cret and that he purposed to make
known TO all the world" the method
by which 1t was created and the man
ner in which it was administered. It
consisted of bacilli taken from a tur-
tie into which tubercular bacilli from
a human being had been injected, he
explained.

HUERTA UNEARTHS
GIGANTIC FRAUDS
new DISCOVERIES MADE DAILY

Madero Government Charged Among
Other Things With Having Paid
Enormous Sums as Bonuses to Rail.
roads Which Have Never Been
Built - Money For Concessions
Reported Missing.
Mexico City, Feb. 27.-The new
government has discovered that Ma
deros administration was guilty of
gigantic financial irregularities. Pres
Ldent Huertas Investigators announce
that vast sums were received by the
lormer government for concessions,
although the money did not benefit
the public treasury.
New discoveries are being made
constantly which indicate that Fran
cisco Madero and his friends cast out
in every direction to obtain funds for
maintaining their regime.
Among other matters dnearthed by
Huerta's financial experts are docu-
ments indicating that the Madero
government paid enormous sums as
bonuses to railroads which have new
er been built Many of these project
ed roads probably never will be con-
structed.
Vouchers show that the Madero
government professed to have turned
over toenumerous railroad and indus
trial companies vast sums, but some
of these concerns exist on paper only
and there seems no doubt that the
bonuses" were fictitious and that the
money which left the treasury en-
riched private individuals.
One of the unbuilt railroads is the
Balsas & Pacific, company organ
lied by American and English pro-
moters. The surveys for this railroad
have not even been completed The
Maderistas claimed to have paid con-
cessions to the Mexican Pacific rail
road, an American concern with plen-
ty of capital, in order to facilitate the
running of trains. Thus far only II
kilometers of the roadbed have been
completed. Still another uncompleted
road used by the Maderistas as an
excuse to divert money from the
treasury is the Vera Cruz, Tabasco &
Campeche.
In some of the departments of gov
ernment, affairs were left by the Ma
deristas in a most jumbled and tan
gled condition Rafael Vasquez, sub
secretary of communications and pub
lie works, says that he found his de-
partment in a shameful condition OF
irregularity.

Ashland, o., Feb. "a. - The indict
ment against ex-Policeman Tod l.
Spreng, charged with murder in the
first degree for the shooting of Cloyd

opened fire on the automobiles and
Madero and Suarez sprang to the
ground and attempted to escape. At
