What Is a Constitution Worth,

New York World: In his second
note to "Mr. Confidential Agent" Lind,
the Mexican minister of foreign affairs
took great pains to explain that Presi-
dent Wilson did not understand the
constitution of Mexico, else he would
not insist that Huerta pledge himself
not to be a candidate at the m !
elections, for the constitution pro-
hibits such candidacy.
Felix DiaZ, who was Huerta's asso-
ciate in the Madero coup d'etat, tells
The Herald's London correspondent
that General Huerta cannot be a
candidate for the presidency of Mexi-
co without solemn pledges made by
himself"
But in the meantime Huerta refuses
to give President Wilson the pledge
that the administration demands, and
the Huerta newspapers in Mexico de-
clare gleefully hat "if the election of
Victoriano Huerta in the coming cam
paign has been in doubt" the course
of the United States government has
made it certain"
So much for Mexican promises and
Mexican respect for constitutions.

British women to vote was effectively
demonstrated yesterday at Elgin, Scot

seized the prime minister of England

British womanhood in the demand for

BOB VEAL CASE IS
 NOLLED IN CITY COURT

Another case brought by the Board Of HeAlth has fallen through when placed before County Health Officer George E.. Hill Though every effort is being made to stop the sale of bob veal in Bridgeport convictions seem to be the hardest to get and health inspectors are today somewhat dis couraged at the repeated failures.
 That brought before the attention of Judge Frank Wilder today was the case of Louis Orlin, S2 Reilly street, against whom a complaint had been laid before the County Health Officer and papers drawn for prosecution. When the matter came up for hearing this morning at the request of the prosecC tor a noI1e was entered It is understood that insufficient evidence was at hand to procure conviction.
