Congress Endorses Clemeney Measure
 of Gen. BIanquet.

Mexico City, March 5.-The amnesty measure prepared by General Elan quet, military commander of the fed era1 district, absolving ali political offenders of whatever kind. received the approval of congress today.
 The measure includes all persons now under arms against the adninis- tration, or in other manner fomenting revolution, providing they put them- selves in accord with the government within fifteen days from the promul- gation of the decree.
 This is the same measure of elem ency so often offered by the Madero administration but without result It Is generally believed that it will find more acceptance now, backed as 1t is by the firm hand and warlike meth odS of President Huerta.
 Already fifty men of the forces under the notorious "Tuerto" Morales, one of the fercest of the Zapitasta lead CTS. have accepted amnesty as pre- viously offered, surrendering the arms upon payment being made to them of fifty pesos each.
 These men marched through the streets of the capital today and at tracted much attention by their ban dit-like appearance, the variety of their costumes and the quantity of arma- ment each carried. They were meek looking lot when disbanded, stripped of their belts, cartridges and pistols, wandering mystihed by the sights of the city,

 NEW HAVEN ROAD LINES

 North of Westfieid, Mass.

New Haven, Conn, March 5.-Pres- ident Mellen of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad com pany was authorized by the directors at their last meeting to make the ar engagements of the lease to the Bos- ton and Albany of the lines of the system north of Westfeld, Mass, and the terms of the lease are now being prepared. The lease will probably be based, it is stated, upon an actual val uation of the 66 miles of tracks and the other properties north of Vest field. owned by the lesser corporation and not less than five per cent. to be paid by the lessee company.
 The motive of the lease on the part of the New Haven is understood to be a part of it's general policy of di- vesting itself of a number of outlying properties, in the case of the east ern Connecticut trolleys, especially when the transfer Is to friendly in- terests like the Boston and Albany, now Jointly leased to the New Haven and the New York Central. Holy oke, Mass, the main point affected by the lease, Is already reached by the Bos- ton and Maine and the New Haven system. In general the lines of the lat ter north of Westfield are regarded by New Haven officers as in a situation for larger development under Boston and Albany than under New Haven control.

 There isn't enough evidence against me to warrant any of you whipping your dog, if you have one, if that evil dence were against the dog.
 T don't fear you jurors. I have been here too long. I know you too well. I no more doubt the result than I would If my brothers and sisters were passing judgment on my guilt or innocence.

LAWS TO DEAL WITH
 THE SUFFRAGETTES.
Those Who Resort to Hunger Strike
 May Be Sent to Hospital.

London, March 5.-It 1s understood that the government has decided to introduce two bills in parliament at as early date as possible dealing with the suffragette difficulty The first will empower the home secretary to exer- else the same licensing control over persons committed to prison as he now does over convtcts. Thus a suR- fragette prisoner adopting the hunger strike would be sent to a hospital OF a home until her health had been re- stored and would then be recommitted to prison. This method would be re- peated until the prisoner had served the full term, in which the time out on license would not be counted.
 The second bill provides a better procedure for recovering fines and damages from suffragettes convicted of attacks on property and will other wise modify the criminal law in tho desired direction.
