WITH BROKEN NECK
Otis Roberts Has Been Able to Work
For Two Years.

A strange case came to the atten-
ton of Dr. n. NJ Crofts in North
Adams Wednesday when he discover
ed through an X-ray examination at
the Hopkins laboratory at the North
Adams hospital that Otis Roberts, IS
years old, had been living and work
ing for more than two years with
what practically amounts to a broken
neck Young Roberts was injured two
years ago while playing football, but
did not consider anything the mat
ter, as he was able to be about again
two days after the injury was re-
ceived Last summer, however, he
consulted an Easthampton physician
with regard to getting insured and
was told that there was something
serious the matter with his neck.
He paid no further attention to it
until a few days ago. when his neck
and shoulders began to give him
considerable trouble He consulted
DR.. Crofts. who found that the sixth
cervical vertebrae was dislocated If
not fractured and the several inches
of the upper part of the spine we're
out of place. The first rib on the
right side was drawn up at an angle
by the spasmodic movement of the
muscles and a hard lump was formed
at the base of the right side of the
neck The X-ray examination, which
was made by DR. Howard of Viii
Jamestown, proved DR.. Croft's dag
nosis to be correct, and the case will
be called to the attention of a Bos-
ton specialist in the near future. The
strange feature of the case is the fact
that the young man has suffered prac
ucally no Inconvenience from his
serious injury until recently and has
been able to work most of the time.

U. S. PROTESTS AMNESTY BILL
Regards Proposed Cuban Measure as
Violation of Treaty.

Washington, March 6.-Minister
Beaupre at Havana has been instruc-
ted by. the State Department to serve
notice upon President Gomez of Cuba
that the United States will regard
the signing of the amnesty bill now
before him as contrary to the let
ter and spirit of the treaty relations
between the two governments.
This bill provides for the liberation
of thousands of Cuban prisoners and
in the opinion of the State Depart
ment is nothing less than measure
for a general jail delivery, The bill
was supposed to benefit only those
guilty of political offences in connec-
ton with the negro revolt of last
spring, but it has been enlarged in
scope as to provide for the liberation
of hundreds of prisoners convicted
Of murder, robbery and other crimes.

FIRE IN FURNITURE STORE
Stock of Michael J. WEIGH Damaged
by Smoke and Water.

The department was called out at
12.45 this afternoon for fire in the
furniture store of Michael ]. WEIGH
on North street. The fire originated
in a stack of mattresses, presumably
from an overheated stove. The in
terror of the store was quickly filed
with smoke and when the members
of the department arrived there was
some difficulty experienced in getting
at the fire. A single stream of water
kept the fire from spreading and
when the flames were under control
the smouldering mattresses were car
riod into the street. Some furni-
ture was destroyed by fire and more
damage was caused by water and
smoke.

WORSE IN NORTHERN MEXICO
Main Opposition to Huerta in Sonora
and Cohula.

Washington, March 6.-Conditions
in northern Mexico are growing
worse instead of better, according to
adyices to the State Department to-
day There is continued improve
ment in the south of Mexico, how
ever, and it is understood that the
Huerta Government win for the pres
ent concentrate its efforts upon the
restoration of order in the south
Order appears to have been COM
pletely restored in the States OF
Yucatan. Campeche, Tabasco, CHA
pas, Oaxaca and Vera Cruz. Rebel
chiefs in the following States are
submitting TO the new Governments:
Guerrero, Puebla, Morelos and Mex-
leo. and order is rapidly being re-
established in those regions Formal
recognition of the Huerta Govern
ment has been given by the State
governments of Hidalgo, Queretaro,
Guanajuato. Jalisco. Michoacan.
Topic, Zacatecas, Durango, San Luis
Potosi, Tamaulipas, Aguas Calientes
and Chihuahua.
The principal opposition to the
new regime in Mexico city is in the
States of Sonora and Coahuila. The
State government of the first has re-
fused to recognize the authority of
the Huerta Government, while Gov.
Carranza of Cohuila and his brother,
Col. Carranza, are still maintaining
armed forces in the field.
Col. Carranza, failing in his effort
to levy contributions from the
foreign merchants in Porfirio Diaz, is
now engaged in selling for half their
value goods found in the Custom
House at that city. These goods
were in transit and destined for mer-
chants in Mexico.

GO MEz IGNORES
BRYAN, SIGNS
AMNESTY
Quick Tempered Cuban 0efies
Our Protest.
INTERVENTION ISSUE RAISED
Matter May Embarrass New Admin
Concerned in Cuban Act.

Washington, d. c., March THE
news comes tonight that President
Gomez of Cuba has signed the am
nesty bill, by which hundreds OF po-
litical and other criminals are to be
liberated with the exit of the Gomez
administration in May, and the en-
trance of the Menocal administration,
and it has created great surprise and
causes much worry.
BY the act of President Gomez re-
lations between this Government and
Cuba have reached stage that again
suggests Intervention 1t was learn
ed only today that last Wednesday
within a few minutes after he had
become Secretary of State, Col. Bry-
an had sent protest to President
Gomez against the enactment of the
amnesty law.
That any Government should act
so promptly in defiance of the for
mally expressed wishes of neigh
boring nation seemed hardly credible
to officials here
There was fear that President
Gomez, on the eve of retirement
from office, would be disposed to de-
fly the right of this Government to in
terfere in such a matter and would
sign the bill in spite of the protest.
President Wilson thus appears to
have the alternative of authorizing
third intervention by military
force in Cuba or of demanding that
pending diplomatic inquiry in regard
to the matter, the act of amnesty be.
suspended and no prisoners liberated
and the act promptly repealed by the
same legislative body that enacted
it,
1t is certain that the President will
proceed just as far as he can with
out resort to the employment of an
armed force in Cuba but it is con-
tended by men in a position to know
that it is none the less certain that
he will compel obedience to the de-
mand4of this Government.
Is This American protest was made
because the bill proposed to liberate
from the jails and prisons of the is
land not only all political prisoners
rbut all criminals. 1t provides also
for granting pardons in advance OF
trial to all persons who may have
been indicted for any criminal of
Tense or who may be indicted for any
criminal act during the Gomez Ad-
ministration.
