WOMEN DIVIDED
 ON TANGO AND OTHER ART DANCES

Washington, Oct. 18.-Discussion of the tango and the other modern dances has divided delegates to the Women's s National Press Association in session here. The association apparently is divided into two camps-those who can see artistry in the new dances and those who believe them a menace to the morals and manners of the young.
 Mrs. B.. Frank Brown, of Chicago, prominent in the women's clubs of that city, held that "the regulation Of modern dancing was one of the most important duties confronting the moth CTS of today"
 "As a general ru1e," she said, "wo- men seem helpless to prevent the dances as mothers not only watch their children induIging in the modern dances, but in many instances they participate in them themselves
 Mrs. Mary s. Lockwood, a. founder and one time regent of the local D. A. R., took up the cudgels in defense of the tango which she declared lis one of the most beautiful dances she has ever seen."
 Then the controversial storm broke. There is small prospect of clearing weather, according to members of the association who have kept out of the argument.

OF
 HUERTA CLAIMS
 ATTENTION NOW

Washington, Oct. 18-Possibi1ities of Huerta's immediate retirement de- manded foremost attention in the Mex ican situation here, today, and admin istration officials were waiting advices to supplement those of late yesterday, which suggested that Mexico's proXis- ional president had been deterred from resigning only because of lack of agreement on a man to succeed him.
 Blanquet, minister of war, one of the group who acted with Huerta in the downfall of Madero, was mention ed as a successor but not approved here. Dip1omatists also were of the opinion that B1anquet, a Spaniard by birth, was ineligible because the Mexi- can constitution requires that the president be native born. Whether Banquet could relieve the situation with the United States also was question discussed.
 Reports of Huerta's impending re- tirement, runors of plots against Fe- lfx Dfaz, a rival presidential candi- date, and the attitude of foreign gov ernments which already have reeog- nized Huerta and some of which are regarded as sympathizing with the position of the United States all serv- ed to complicate the situation.
 President Wilson went off to the golf links, early today, as his week end custom, and Secretary Bryan was out of the city.
 Two long cabIegrams from Charge O'Shaughnessy,- reaching here before daylight, described only general condi- tions in the Mexican capital making no predictions.

BOTH SIDES MUM ON CONFERENCES
 WITH ENGINEERS

New Haven, Oct. 18-No information was obtainabIe today, concerning the near-agreement of the grand officers of the Engineers and Bremen with the operating officers of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Rail- road company over the new rules. The railroad company declines to make any statement as to 8 tentative agree ment by which the matter of dis missing men for breach of the rules will be subject to review on appeal from the decision of the general man. ager. The new rules provide that the decision of the general manager shall be final, when cases are carried to him by appeal from divisional officers Grand Chief Stone, of the Brother hood of Engineers who has the matter personally in hand, has had confer ences with President Elliott over the entire situation. MT. Stone came here after he had been requested by the adjustment committee, it is under stood, to authorize the calling out of the engineers on strike.
 No statement Is made by the rail- road men as to the reported agree ment. On the contrary, there is a persistent impression that the acute situation is not over. The chief con- tention of the railroad men, it is uR- derstood, is that the new rules give opportunity to penalize members of the union. Railroad men claimed that the conferences have opened up larger questions than those involved in the objection to the word fitness in the promotion rule and the matter of ap- peal from decisions of divisional off, cers in matters of discipline.
 It is claimed that engineers on all the railroads east of the Mississippi river are watching the outcome of the present controversy on the New Ha- ven system.

Delaney asked for the unusually heavy bonds on account of DeLue's reputation of being a wicked fellow" " It was shown that he made no hesita- ton of trying to wing" several po- licemen and that poor aim only saved them.
 Giuseppe Longo, brought back to Bridgeport from New York under ex- tradition proceedings, was bound over to the Superior court under a prob able cause finding of assault with in- tent to kill charges and with bonds fixed at $1,00O. The arraignment was result of a stabbing affray at 25 Sherman street the morning of Octo- Der 1.

Considerable conflicting testimony was given.
 GnaTBeS or DrGdCn or the peace against six held at witnesses in the Vennuchio murder case were nolIed as their services were no longer need ed, the Superior court having heard the evidence. The cases have been continued from week to week for the trial.
