MEXICO CITY, March 3-The pro-
visional government Of Mexico is
awaiting with some anxiety the in
coming of the Wilson administration at
Washington tomorrow. not knowing
what policy the United States may
then adopt toward the Mexican situa
ton.
provisional President Victoriano
Huerta and Foreign Minister Francisco
de la Barra believe Mr.. Wilson will
continue the hands off" policy Of Pres
ldent Taft, but they fear that compu
cations might be brought about through
the appointment of new amba ssador
not fully understanding the Mexican
people as does the present Ambassador
Henry Lane Wilson.
Members of the American colony rec
ognlze the quality Of the work done by
Mr.. Wilson to bring the hostile Next
can factions together and maintain a
friendly feeling. The Mexicans and for
elshers are thinking Of sending a com
mittee to Washington to urge the re-
lehtloh OF Mr.. Wilson. If this is car
ried out the committee may leave for
Washington next week.
Felix Rabiasa, the new Mexican am
passador to the United States. ia also
expected to speak in favor of the reten-
uon of Mr.. Wilson. Mexican statesmen
argue that in a crisis such as the Mexi-
can government is passing through laws
and traditions higher and broader than
tnose Of politics should be observed. Mr.
wilson Is in the inner counsels of the
government and almost daily gives adj
vice upon matters under consideration

Last Whole Day as
President Busy One
For William H. Taft
Good-byes and Mass of Bills Oc-
cupy Time of Chief
Executive.

WASHINGTON. March 3.-President
Taft awoke early today to a realization
that this is the last full day he will
spend in the white house; that at noon
tomorrow ne will retire to private life
as Mister" Taft which title he will
hold for about month, when he will
assume that of Professor"
Upon arrival at the executive Offices
the president found the reception hall
commonly known as lame duck alley"
or pie alley''-crowded with senators,
representatives and personal friends,
who had come to the white house to
say last goodbye to the president,
never so popular as in these. his last
few hours of power. The good -byes
were curtailed, however, and President
Taft made preparations to sign the
bills, which he must attend to, and di
rected that as much as possible of his
correspondence be taken care of by
Secretary Hilles.
Signs s-Hour Bill.
The president also signed the bill
limiting work of men employed on all
government owned steamships and
dredges to eight hours a day. The pen
with which the bill was signed was pre-
scented by the president to T. ]. Dolan,
secretary and treasurer of the Inter-
national Brotherhood of Steamshovel
and Dredgemen of Chicago.
Among the score of bills which the
president transformed into law by af-
fixing his signature today to, were the
army appropriation bill; the joint reso-
luton providing for the cessation Of
traffic during the suffragist parade here
today and the bill for the publication
of military and naval records of the
revolution which have never been COM
piled in book form.
Signs Name 1900 Times
1t is estimated that the president has
affixed his signature to 1900 documents
of all kinds during the past twenty four
hours. This includes fifty commissions
arising from nominations lately APP
proved by the senate, 1000 signatures
to personal letters and autographs for
photos and the remainder attached TO
miscellaneous business.
The MacVeagh plan for reor-
ization of the customs service
probably will go to congress today
thus cleaning up the last important bit
of the legislation of the Taft admins
tration. At o'clock this evening the
president and Mrs. Taft will act as host
and hostess to the president ELECT and
Mrs Wilson.

NEW LEADERS IN
j. 8. CONGRESS
Smith, of Georgia, One of the
Senate DiCtatorS-PaImer
House Caucus Leader.

WASHINGTON, March 3.-With the
inauguration of Wilson and Marshall
and the meeting Of congress in ex-
traordinary session practically an en-
tirely new group of men rises to power
in the American republic.
The senate will be transformed from
a Republican into Democratic body,
with the progressive Democrats-the
men friendly to the new president-in
control. Kern Of Indiana, Smith Of
Georgia, Gore of Oklahoma, and Lea Of
Tennessee are the more prominent of
the progressive Democrats who will
take over the leadership OF the major
ity from Martin of Virginia, Simmons
Of North Carolina, and their fellow
conservatives.
In the house of representatives. A.
Mitchell Palmer Of Pennsylvania VIII
rise to special prominence as chairman
Of the Democratic caucus, selected at
the request of President Wilson.
Clark will remain speaker and Under
wood majority leader, but they will be
compelled to defer, for time at least,
to Palmer, Henry Of Texas and other
recognized progressives as the spokes-
men of the new chief magistrate.
Speculation on Peace.
Whether President Wilson and con-
gress will be able to get along AMIGA
bly, is the question on which the poll
ticians of all parties are specializing on
the eve of the Inauguration. 1t Is CIV
ing concern to Wilson, to the men he
has invited to sit in his cabinet and
to the leaders in the senate and house.
All realize that the relationship of
the capitol and the White House win
have a good deal to do with shaping
the political history of the next four
years.
There viii be plenty OF harmony at
the start; there always is. But It is
the finish on which the politicians have
their eyes fixed.
The Republicans in congress are con-
fident that the Democrats In executive
and legislative branches Of the govern
ment will be at loggerheads before the
new administration Ia three months old,
and that on this rock the Democratic
administration viii go to smash. On
that contingency. the Republicans pin
their hopes OF returning to power.
Situation Has Pitfalls.
That the situation has its pitfalls is
admitted by the Democrats progressive
as well as conservative. The house is
the weak spot There will be POI
Democrats in the next house and 144
Republicans and Progressives. That
will give the Democrats majority of
147. which experience has demonstrated
is about 100 more than it is good for
any party to have in that popular as
semblage.
How that tremendous majority can
be kept together instead of splitting up
and Joining the Republicans, the Pro-
sressives or both is the problem bother

CAPITAL PRICES
SOAR SKYWARD
All Commodities Boosted From
so to 1000 Per Cent for
Inauguration Visitors.

WASHINGTON. March 3.-Inaugu-
ration ceremonies occur only once in
every four years in this town and
trades people took advantage OF the
fact today by boosting prices OF all
commodities anywhere from so to 900
per cent.
The new Willard hotel management
asked-and got-s500 for occupancy Of
its rooms that face the street where
the inaugural parade will pass, and
every hotel in the city has boosted its
prices to exorbitant figures.
Restaurants today put into service
new bills of fare that showed a doub-
ling or trebling Of the prices that pre-
vailed last week. Even in the modest
eating places the standard price of 25
cents for ham and" was raised to so
cents or rs cents, with everything else
on the menu showing a corresponding
increase.
There are perhaps 10000 visitors in
Washington today and there is a mad
scramble for rooms. The hotels are
filed to overlooking and private fami-
lies are taking advantage of the fact
by making their own headquarters in
the basement or the attic and renting
out every available inch Of space in the
house proper.
The price of room in private
family ranges anywhere from s. to
so night, and the price Of cot in a
small room in which there are three or
four other occupants is from SO to as
high a figure as the visitor can be
gOuged for.

New Figures Show

MEXICO CITY, March S.-A revised
canvass hows that at least 1000 per-
sons were killed in the day battle
of Mexico City, and the figures may go
to 1900.
The secretary of the White Cross So
ciety, an organization similar to the
Red Cross, has made a serious charge
against Francisco l. Madero, late pres
ident of Mexico. According to this Of
fetal, Madero sent SO White Cross flags
to him to have the stamp of the So
ciety placed upon them, saying he need
err them to assist in the transporta-
ton of ammunition.
The secretary of the White Cross re-
fused to grant the request, he said,
and sent three messengers to the ma
tional palace with the word that the or
ganization would be dissolved before
it's officers would allow It to be put to
such q purpose. Madero seized the
messengers and placed them under ar
rest
Madero issued orders to fire upon all
White Cross ambulances. At the time
of the battle, shots were directed
against White Cross ambulances by
both federaIs and rebels, but it was re-
ported then by each side that the White
Cross emblem was being prostltuted by
the other Finally DR.. Edward w.
Ryan, one of the White Cross surgeons,
was arrested by Madero. United States
Ambassador Wilson interviewed and
compelled Madero to release Ryan.
MIR. Wilson also protested against
firing upon White Cross ambulances,
and Madero countermanded his orders.
