Enforcement of Laws Against
Sunday Baseball.

Auburn, N Y.-Joe, a pet mon
key, belonging to Justice of the
Peace 1. E. Pearson of Owasco, has
become disgusted with his masters
enforcement of the laws against Sun
day baseball and joined the insurg
ents who are fighting the Auburn Sun
day School union.
Joe went over to the baseball fans
when he "sneaked" into Justice Pear
sons court room in the judges abb
sence and after examining all of the
law books, documents and affidavits
piled on the judges desk involving 81
ball players and over so spectators,
made short work of the evidence by
chewing it into shreds and throwing It
around the room. There was very few
legal papers that passed his scrutiny
and all that. he disapproved of he de.
stroyed.

grafton in Philadelphia.
Tank After Tank Filled With Crude

BILE Products Explode as
Flames Spread.

Philadelphia, Pa.-The plant of the
Union Petroleum Co., which oc-
cupied the block surrounded by Moi
fin, Water, Moore and Swanson-sts,
was wiped out in one of the most Sc.
rious and costly fires in the city in
recent years. The loss will reach
$75000O.
Tank after tank filled with crude
oil, benzine and other inflammable
products exploded as the flames spread.
Several times the fire. which started
from a spark from an emery wheel,
spread beyond the confines of the
plant. Several firemen and spectators
We're hurt
A score of dwellings in Water and
Dudley-sts were endangered and the
occupants removed their household
goods and then were kept out of the
district by the police.
At each explosion flaming oil shot
many feet in all directions. igniting
everything with which it came in con-
tact. Oil which was not ablaze flowed
through adjoining streets and along
the tracks of the Pennsylvania rail
road.

DEATH, DEVASTATION
AND PROPERTY LOSS
Storm Hits Philadelphia and
Surrounding Country.
Baby Is Dead and Many People Are
Injured When Pavilion in Which
200 Had Taken Refuge From
Fierce Storm CoIlapses.

Philadelphia, Pa.-Death, devasta-
is left in the wake of the worst
storm in years which struck Phila-
delphia and the surrounding country
at 4 O'Clock Sunday afternoon. Ac-
conpanied by a 60-mile wind before
great black clouds and large hail
stones, everything frail or weak fell
in the path of the gust. 1t was like
the death dealing punch Of Goliath
pugilist. The worst accident reported
until late at night was in Fairmount
Park where a band pavilion near
Georges hall collapsed, catching at
least 200 persons in the ruins. They
had taken refuge from the storm in
the pavilion. A baby is dead and 10
injured persons are in the local hospi-
tails. More than 100 injured managed
to drag themselves to their homes.
Only the fact that the pavilion was of
light construction, without any real
heavy joists, prevented a terrible
catastrophe.
At the height of the storm a large
crowd of picnickers was being
pushed to it's utmost to get the gay
merrymakers under cover. The wind
blew the flowing necktie of the driver
into his face. He lost control for an
instant and the big machine was
thrown into tree. Seven of the oc-
cupants were injured.
Matte L. Greiner was drowned at
Port Richmond Her male companions
were endeavoring to get ashore when
the guest seemed to life the woman
bodily from the boat.
The entire length of Market-st is
laid waste. Large trees that have
withstood the storms of years are
stretched across the streets. In all
parts Of the city trolley service was
either tied up absolutely or delayed
for hours. Telephone and telegraph
poles are down on all sides.
Large plate glass windows in the
downtown stores were smashed like
SO much tissue paper. The wind tore
the roof from the building of the
Franklin Trust Co. at 18th and Mar
ket-sts. Roofs of IL houses in the
neighborhood of 47th and 49th-sts and
Woodland and Paschallavs were car
ried away bodily.
A tower on the Broad and Filbert-
st side of the Pennsylvania station
was Jared from it's support and huge
blocks of granite We're hurled into the
street. Fortunately no person was
hit.
All the parks of the city were de.
vastated. Gigantic trees were brok-
en- like pipe stems. Agnes Murphy, %,
was killed at City Line by falling
tree under which she took refuge.
James McNamee, IL months old, was
killed by falling tree at 4Sth-st and
Lancaster-av. Patrick McNamee, the
baby's father, was injured.
Reports from the outlying districts
show that the storm was even worse
than in Philadelphia. EARLY reports
show that many of the magnificent
homes in the suburbs and along the
"main line" are wrecks.
Heavy damage due to a terrific
windstorm was also caused in New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Mary.
land ard Rhode Island.

HUERTA PREPARING FOR WAR
WITH THE UNITED STATES

New York City.-President Huerta
of Mexico is preparing for war with
the United States. He hopes to have
the aid of the Japanese government if
hostilities begin.
Mexico has already purchased $4,000
rifles from Japan. Americans are pre-
pairing to flee from Mexico City Some
have already taken their personal pos
sessions to Vera Cruz and then re-
turned to the capital to await the out
come of the difficulties between this
country and the southern republic.
Efforts have been made to install a
wireless equipment at the United
States embassy in Mexico City by
which Americans might communicate
with United States war vessels lying
at Vera Cruz but these efforts have
thus far failed. The Mexican govern
ment Ia accused of having baked this
plan.
Situation Reported Bad.
These are some of the important
and startling facts set forth in mail
advices received here from the Mexi-
can capital. At the time they were
sent the diplomatic crisis caused by
the resignation of Ambassador Wilson
and the appointment Of John Lind as
special envoy had not been reported.
The situation at the present time is
probably even worse now, for dis
patches from Mexico City indicate
that Gen. Huerta is growing in popu-
larity because of his defense of his
country.
One letter received says: at has
been Impossible to get the wireless
into the embassy. 1t is at the dispos-
al of the Mexican government and will
never be allowed to be installed in the
embassy"
Discussing Huerta's war plans the
letter says: "Huerta does not intend
to accept any offer short of recog-
milton from Washington. Every man
Huerta can get hold of including the
clerks in the stores of the capital is
being drilled for service in the event
of foreign INVASION, to quote the presi,
dents own words.
"The policemen are armed with
rifles now and have machine guns
handy. There are many indications OF
preparations for a foreign war.
"Huerta's protestations that Ameri
cans will be safe in Mexico are in line
with his protestations to Madero that
he would die in his defense 'on his
honor as a soldier and a Mexican
The man is a traitor"

LIND TO EXECUTE
WILSON'S ORDERS
Will Not be Deferred in Mis-
sion by Huerta's Threat.
CORRESPONDENT HEARD FROM
Says Mexicos Head Told Him That
He Would Resist With Arms
Any Attempt by United
States to Interfere.

Washington, ID. G. Despite the
threats of Huerta that he will not re-
ceive Special Envoy Lind officially un-
nized in his credentials, Mr.. Lind will
go on to Mexico City and execute the
orders given him by the president.
This was the concrete development
at the White House and state depart
ment after the presentation to the
president of Huerta's defiance.
What Correspondent Says.
The Washington Times publishes
the following dispatch from its Mexi-
co City correspondent:
81 was received at the palace Fri
day morning by President Victoriana
Huerta. He authorized me to make
this statement for him:
"I will resist with arms any at
tempt by the United States to inter
fere in the affairs of Mexico. The
limit of patience has been reached
over the policy of non-recognition
adopted by the United States. l in
tend absolutely to ignore Lind's pres
ence unless he bears official creden-
tials as ambassador. Under no con-
ditions will he be received by govern
mental departments. l refuse to ac
cept mediation or intervention by the
United States. The republics dignity
and decorum demand that we accept
no compromise with the revolution
ists'"
Claims Misrepresentation.
When the president was informed
officially of Huerta's attitude he sent
posthaste for Secretary of State Bry-
an and Secretary of the Navy Daniels.
After a conference with these officials
the following statement was prepared
at the state department and given to
the press:
"The statement of the Mexican for
eign office was based on misrepresen-
tation for which this government is
not responsible. In sending Gov. Lind
as adviser to the embassy, the presi-
dent is entirely within his rights and
this department will not assume that
his going will be regarded as unfriend-
ly when the character of his mission
is understood"

WHALEY BITTERLY
ASSA|LS ACCUSER
Congressman Says Charges by
. Mayor Grace Are Nothing
But a Tissue of Lies.

Congressman Whaley, of South Caro-
lima, against whom charges of vote buy
ing have been filed with the House by
Mayor John r. Grace. of Charleston.
Is out in a statement today Indignantly
denying the charges and lambasting
his accuser. Mr.. Grace. who would
have Mr.. Whaley ousted from his seat,
alleges that the South Carolina MEM
Der spent $4,000 to get elected and then
filed false campaign statements.
Mr.. Whaley says the Grace charges
are nothing but tissue of lies from
beginning to end" Discussing Grace,
he adds: THE people of South Carolina
who know his reckless disregard for the
truth and his vindictive and vile opposi-
ton to me and to my family, do not
pay any attention to the scurrilous lies
and he has come to Washington, where
his character Is not known, for the
purpose Of endeavoring to humiliate
me and impede and obstruct me in the
discharge of my duties"
Congressman Whaley also comes back
by saying that his accuser Is a
chronic office seeker" and Is disgrunt-
led because he isn't in Congress.
The Grace petition now is before the
House Elections Committee No. 1 and
Mayor Grace says he can prove his
charges II given an opportunity. The
committee may consider the matter
within a few days
