Upton CHALLENGES
FOR AMERICAS CUP
Sir Thomas Wants Series CT
Yacht Races in 1914.

London, March GA challenge by
the Royal Ulster Yacht club for a
series of races for the AMERICAS cup,
to take place IN 1914, made on behalf
of Sir Thomas LiptCn, is on it's way to
America. The challenge is for compe-
titions under the old rules.
Sir Thomas Upton, who has just re-
turned from America, when question
ed on the subject, said there was no
the truth of the report that a chal-
lenge. The New York Yacht cub, he
added, has been notified both by the
Royal Ulster Yacht club and Sir
Thomas Upton personally of the DIS
patch of the challenge.
Sir Thomas Upton expressed con-
siderable surprise when asked about
the truth of the reuort that a chal-
lenge for the Americas cup had been
sent to New York. He had endeavored
to keep it secret until the delivery OF
the challenge to the New York Yacht
club. For reasons of courtesy" Sir
Thomas regretted that he was com
PEELED to withhold some of the de
tails.
Sir Thomas added, however, that his
prejudices against the old deed Of
gife" rules had been overcome and
that he had challenged for a series of
races under the old conditions. The
British yachtsman expressed the hope
that with luck on his side he would
win the race, adding that he wanted
to do it without being the recipient OF
any favors.

EMILIO MADERO
ESCAPES FROM MEXICO
Was Officially Reported Deal
By Government

San Antonio, Tex, March emilio
Madero, who was officially reported
dead by the Mexican government, and
Ambassador Wilson reached here af-
ter an overland trip from Torreon to
the American border, and tells a
graphic story of his, experiences.
With Emilio were his brother Raoul
and three servants, who accompanied
them the 900 miles on horseback from
Torreon to Marathon, Texas. Trey
came from Marathon to San Antonio
on the first train, where they Joined
another brother of the late president
Of Mexico, Gabriel Madero. Neither
Emilio nor Raoul would say anything
further than the other brothers have
already said as to the future plans OF
the Madero family. Both refused alb
solutely to discuss Mexican politics.
Emilio Madero said that they were
in the neighborhood of Torreon when
the news of his brothers death was
received and concluded that the best
thing to do was to flee the country.
They could not trust the trains, so
started with three servants across the
country on horseback.
On two occasions they were stopped
by bandits or supposed bandits and
exchanged shots with them. The last
was party Of forty, near the boder,
and they escaped because one of the
servants knew of short cut through
the mountains.
