The Times, in an editorial contend
ing that the message, while admirable
in tone and worthy of President Will
sons reputation as peace advocate,
has drawback in beng irrelevant to
the main point The Times proceeds
to ask why the Washington govern

Huerta, and adds: "It is difficult t.

POCKET Sized GATTLING

Atlanta, August 29.-Nothing but
kindly Providence saved the whole of.
fee staff of the police department from
being shot full of holes like sieve last
night when an automatic pistol of for
eign make was taken from the hip
pocket of a prisoner. The searching
officer in endeavoring to unload ii
pressed the wrong place and then
dropped it on the floor. 1t jumped
around splitting out steel-nosed bullets
at the rate of twelve every sixteen sec
on6s until the magazine was exhaust
ed By near-miracle melody was
hit.
The prisoner who had the dangerous
weapon was a seventeen year old boy
named Mckinley Harmon, arrested on
suspicion in connection with the mid

London PRESS SEES INTERVENTION
AS A RESULT OF WILSON'S MESSAGE

London, Aug. 29.-The London morn
ing papers, commenting on his mes
sage, are not altogether sanguine OF
the wisdom or success of President
Wilson's policy but are agreed that it
is almost certain to lead to American
intervention, therefore indicating that a
grave crisis has been reached.
The Morning Post says: president
Wilson will have his hands full if he
sets himself up as the censor of NOR
ais for the presidents of Latin-Ameri.
ca; and if the United States accepts
the duty OF supporting the duly elected
president, Mexico would become in
fact, if not in name, an American pro-
tectorate"
The Express says: President Will
son is not the man to bluff on such a
question. From his stern and ex-
! fP5lliieei itt message It is clear that Mexico
must either climb down or fight. If
the former, she admits American ST.
zerainty; if the latter, she may lose
her independence altogether. Great
Britain has large interests and much
to lose by war, but it is difficult to
understand how British sympathy
could be otherwise bestowed than up
on the United States.
The Daily Chronicle considers that
President Wilson displays an exces-
sive belief in the virtues of the ballot
box, and that had the United States,
like other powers, recognized provis-
ional President Huerta, he would hava
established an orderly government
throughout Mexico. The Chronicle
thinks it possible that President Will
son still has reason to anticipate con-
cessions on Huera's part, which will
make a revised program possible.
The Daily News says that if only the
European powers do not stiffen Huer-
ta's back, President Wilson's policy
will prove as judicious as it is pru-
dent.
The Daily Mail in an ironical vein
declares that what the Washington
government most needs is a policy,
and asks whether President Wilson
supposes that the American citizens
in Mexico managing public utilities
representing $5O,OOO,OOO capital can
put the railways and tramways in their
pockets when they leave, or whether
they are to leave them behind. 1t says
that the message should be quite pop
ular in Mexico.

This is part of the statement made
before United States Commissioned

Mrs. Mary Lou Haden at the hearing
of Otto A. Bridgeman, alleged to hay

them he brought he girl here from
Dallas. Special Agent Pendleton also
testified that Bridgeman admitte1
having brought his affinity here from
Dallas, and that he had admitted hav
ing used the names of Schoquist and
Briggs
The girl was nervous when she to0s
the stand. 1t was easy to see from
the glances aud smiles she flung al
the prisoner that she would still have
loved him if he had been before tn
bar on a charge of murder.
She is % years old. Her family Il

the man for me.

the office to tell Bridgeman that
liked the way he looked and would like
to meet him. 1 didn't make any mis-
take in him. l will always love him.
She denied that Bridgeman pal;

Bridgeman made sweeping denial:
of all charges that he brought tn
girl to New Orleans. He said that sht
came herself and arranged for he
own transportation
He admitted that he had Travelled
around with her for several months
He said that Immediately after they
. arrived here, Mrs. Haden went to worl
at Patterson, La, but that she came
back to New Orleans to be with him.
