WIDOW SUES SLAYER FREED ON

St. Paul, April 23.-Prof. Oscar OIL

and for which he was acquitted two
weeks ago, is to be sued by Mrs. Viola
Darling, widow of the dead man. .
Mrs. Darling has instructed her
attorneys to institute suit for $500

Washington, April 23.-President
Wilson considers the Japanese de-

that he has telegraphed Gov. john
son and legislative leaders asking
whether it will be acceptable to have
Secretary of State. Bryan visit Sac

framing an anti-alien land law which
will meet the views of Californians
and at the, same time not interfere
with existing treaties.
The presidents stand was caused
by the action of Japan in delivering
what practically amounted to an ulti-
matum that if Japs were excluded,
the embargo should apply to all inn
migrants.

MARKS THE PAGEANT
Women Had to Be Very Militant to
Pierce the Crowds.

Washington, March 3.-Five thou
sand women, marching in the women
suffrage pageant to-day, practically
fought their way foot by foot up
Pennsylvania avenue, through surg
ing mob that completely defied the
Washington police, swamped the
marchers and broke their procession
into little companies.
The women, trudging stoutly along
under great difficulties, were able to
complete their march only when
troops of cavalry from Fort Myer
we're rushed into Washington to take
charge of Pennsylvania avenue. No
Inauguration has produced such
scenes, which in many instances
amounted to nothing less than riots.
Later, in Continental Hall, the wo-
men turned what was to have been a
suffrage demonstration into an in
dignation meeting, in which the
Washington police we're roundly de-
nounced for their inactivity, and res
olutions were passed calling upon
President-elect Wilson and the in
coming Congress to make an investi-
cation and locate the responsibility

WAS SHE BEATEN AND RGBBEDP
$4S,500 Taken from Handbag-Suf-
fering from Wound.

Chicago, March 2.-Mrs. Mabel
Mills, wife of wealthy land owner
of San Antonio, Texas, to-day lies un-
der the care OF physicians at an Ev-
anston ILL.,, hosr ftal, after either hav-
ing lost cr been robbed Of about $43,-
500 in that city Saturday night Mrs.
Mills is suffering from wound in
the back of her head, but is uncertain
whether she was felled by blow and
robbed or whether she tainted and
sustained the injury by fall to the
sidewalk
1t is Coe of the strangest stories
that ever cane to my attention. said
Chief of Police Shaffer, of Evanston,
tonight. There seem to be several
mysteries that have to be solved in
stead Of one"
Drew $40, 900 from Bank.
According to information obtained
by the police, Mrs. Mills came to Chi
cago from San Antonio less than a
week ago and registered at leading
hotel. Shortly before noon Saturday
she is supposed to have drawn $45,-
600 from bank, and on returning
to the hotel, to have given the money
into the care of the cashier, receiving
receipt therefor. When she re-
turned for the money a short time
later, it Is said. she discovered that
she had lost the receipt; but, as she
had made herself known to the CASH
ier, she succeeded in getting the
money back without trouble. In the
afternoon she went to Evanston to
attend dinner at the home OF
friend, carrying the $45,000 in a
large brown handbag, a part Of 1t be-
ing in d smaller purse inside the lar
ger bag.
After the dinner Mrs. Mills started
back to Chicago, but, on the way,
opened the handbag and discovered
that the smaller purse was missing:
She returned to Evanston, missed her
way, and at 9.30p. m. was seen walk
ing by a policeman, whom she did
not accost
What happened during the next
hour is not known. At 1880 O'Clock
she staggered to strangers door
and asked for assistance. A physi-
clan and her friends were summoned.
The latter discovered the smaller
purse, containing $3.50 at their
home. Later the handbag was found
on the sidewalk, opened and with the
money missing.
Inc ponce are unable to under
stand why Mrs. Mills rode beyond
her station on her return to Evans
ton, and why the scene OF her mishap
should have been several blocks from
the house at which she applied for
aid.
That she had the money was es-
tablished by eye-witnesses. A theory
is that Mrs. Mills was dazed by a
fall and wandered away without
looking for her handbag, which was
afterwards found and rifled
1t was said at the .2spital that
Mrs. Mills Is suffering from concus-
sion Of he brain, and that her condi-
tion Is serious. She is also Ill from
the exposure. The physician VINO at
tended her said he did not believe
she could have sustained such an in
jury by falling.

WEBB LIQUOR Rnh PASSED.
House Follows Senate i'm Overriding
President Taft's Veto.

Washington, March by vote
OF 244 to 95 the House to-day re-
passed over President Taft's veto the
Webb bill, prohibiting shipment OF
Intoxicating liquors into dry"
States. The Senate passed it over
the veto last night and the bill now
becomes law.
Only one other time in, the last
fifteen years has Congress over-rid-
den Presidents veto. That was
when the Rainey river dam bill was
passed over President Roosevelt's
disapproval.
President Taft based his veto al
most entirely upon the ground that
the bill Tas unconstitutional, in that
1t virtually delegated to the States
control of Interstate traffic in IL
quor, when he held that such con-
troll was vested solely in Congress.
Attorney General Wickersham had
given an opinion, also holding the
bill unconstitutional, and that tho

yesterday with his veto message.

U. S. TROOPS KILL MExICANs.
More Than 4,0GG Shots Fired by
Americans ard MeXicans.

Douglas, Ariz., March 3.-Four
dead Mexican soldiers and an un-
known number of wounded were
taken to Aqua Prieta to-day from,
the point on the International borde r
five miles from here, where two
troops of the Ninth United States
Cavalry fought thirty-minute bat
tie with Mexican regulars yesterday.
More than 1000 shots were fired by
the American troopers, and it is esti-
mated that fully as many were fired
by the Mexicans. None of the Ameri-
cans was hit. Neither side crossed
the line.
Col. Guilfoyle, commanding the
Ninth Cavalry, said to-day he did not
| anticipate further trouble. AS PIE
cautionary measure, however, the
usual border patrol Of the Ninth Cav
airy was increased this morning.
Gen. Ojeda, Mexican commander
at Aqua Prieta, to-day claimed that
! the American troopers fired first This
is denied by United States army off,
GERS. Lieut.. Nicholson, in command
of the fifteen who first engaged the
MeXicans, and Capt. Armstrong, who
commanded troops e and f when
they came to the relief OF the patrol,
said to-day that a volley came from
the Mexican side before the Ameri-
cans fired.
MeXicans Fired Without Warming.
According to the army officers,
Lieut.. Nicholson and his fifteen men
were fired upon without warning by
seventy7five Mexican federals. The
patrol returned the fire, but in a few
minutes retreated to the Calumet
and Arizona smelter and sent for re-
| Inducements.
Troops e and F, under Cant. Arm
strong, responded with machine
gun and 120 rounds OF ammunition
per man. At sight of the reinforce
ments the Mexicans again began fir
! ing.
The troops replied vigorously and
a general engagement was soon on.
The opposing forces were in skirmish
| lines 800 yards apart, with the inter-
| national line between After thirty
minutes the MeXicans retreated be
yond the range of the troop ers' rifles.
| An incident which pr,ceded the
skirmish was the arrest by the bor-
der patrol Saturday afternoon of
Juan Castillo as he was trying to
cross from the American side to
Aqua Prieta with messages from r.
Callos, leader of the Maderista junta
in Douglas, to his followers in So

Shots Across the Line.
Soon after the arrest Of the rebel
messenger Saturday few shots were
| fired across the line at squad OF
American troopers.
Col. Gui1foyle said the report he
sent to Washington agreed with the
facts set forth above.
Gen. Ojeda, commander Of the
Mexican Federal troops at Aqua
Prieta, said:
"All there is to the affair is that
fifteen Maderistas tried to cross the
line yesterday morning when the ne
gro troopers tried to arrest them.
They fired and the negroes fed. Later
| started $50 federals to Naco. The
road they had to travel goes close to
the border line. When they reached
the place where the shots were fired
in the morning the negro troops
opened fire on them. My men re-
treated short distance and returned
the fire as long as the negroes fired
