drswal as means to remedying the evil
dent difficulties of the situation had taken
place ON Thursday. Had Huerta adopted
a policy OF self-effacement news Of his
decision. Il was thought. would have
reached this government through the
dispatches from its representatives in
Mexico before this.
Standing cut in the discussions among
officials of the plan attributed to Huerta
was the construction that he. IL he re-
signs at all, will do so merely to remove
the constitutional prohibition against a
provisional President becoming a candi-
date to succeed himself and thus open
the way for him to run in the coming
elections.
President Wilson has abandoned the
thought Of recognizing the government
to be set up by the elections of October
IS and II Is believed he will not consider
a request from H6erta to approve the
results Of any election TO be held under
the Huerta regime. The plan which the
United States once had agreed upon,
providing for the recognition of a Presl-
dent elected by the votes OF those re-
siding in the territory under the control
OF Huerta. abides permanently upon the
scrap heap and his most trusted advis-
ers do mob, believe now that President
Wilson again will set such easy condi-
tons for an election in Mexico.
Recent developments have convinced
Mr.. Wilson that the United States was
wrong in agreeing to overlook the orig
inal demand for an armistice or in
thinking even OF giving recognition and
moral support to a government consti-
tuted while Huerta remained at the head
of the army, and thus in control of the
election machinery.

The brief states that the first vote
taken by the grand jury stood ten 10 FIVE

Baltimore, Nd, Oct. 10. Sunday. Fire
started just before midnight in the grand
stand at the Havre de Grace race track
and within ten minutes the huge struc-
ture was mass of flames. The fire
famed by stiff breeze, soon had the
entire stand enveloped. Sparks began
flying in all directions, and it was not
long before the clubhouse was ablaze
Residents Of Havre de Grace were soon
aroused. and half OF the town proceeded
to the track, which is about one mile
from the center of the town. The engine
company of Havre de Grace did what
little it could to check the flames, but at
1 O'Clock this morning it seemed as IL it
would be impossible to even save the
fence which surrounds the track. The re-
Election from the fire could be seen for
miles.
The track was built about two years ago
at cost of nearly S1,0Oo,00O, and the fall
races ended there the last day of Sep
tember. The loss will reach s150.oo0.

COLLEGES REVISE
SWIMMING RULES
Several Changes Made ip Water Polo,
Tending to Help the Weaker
Team

, New York, Oct I&-Radical changes in
the rules that came up for consideration
were passed upon favorably at the an.
nual meeting of the intercollegiate Swim
ming Association, held at the New York
Athletic Club yesterday. Most of them
affected water polo and all were proposed
by the Graduate Advisory Board, a com.
mittee created last winter. when the man.
ayers and captains OF the various College
teams after encountering all sorts of
trouble with the rules in vogue decided
the matter ought to be placed in the hands
OF competent and experienced veterans of
the sport
The work of this committee, judging
from the report. was almost thorough.
Water polo came in for most of their at
tention, they asserted, because IL was
that division that had created most dis
satisfaction. With an eye toward making
the contests less one-sided than hereto
fore, the board ruled that in future the
ball be given to the team scored against
after each goal The weaker side, they
said, should be given a chance to show
its ability on the defensive.
A second change was the substitution
Of three periods for two in every game
to alleviate the tax on the strength and
stamina of the players and another was
an amendment permitting player to re-
turn to the game after he had once been
Withdrawn. The object of the latter rul-
ing is to decrease the size of the visiting
squads and thereby reduce their travelling
expenses. The value of this change can
not be overestimated, for the matter of
expense has been the bugbear that has
retarded the development of the sport
among the colleges
The elimination of the one and n half
Flying Dutchman from the list of legal
dives was another innortant Amendment
The dive was considered too dangerous
for tcollegians. several serious accidents
having resulted at dual meets within the
last few years.
There was one subject. however. over
which the advisory board and the col.
lege representatives failed to agree, and
that was the question OF eliminating the
plunge from the list of events to make
room for the back stroke The board
favored the change on the ground that
the plunge was not an interesting event
from a spectators standpoint, that II did
not develop swimmers and that IL had
been stricken on national and Olympic
programs The back stroke was one style
of swimming at which Americans had
been beaten easily at the last Olympic
meet The delegates. however, voted to
refuse the change principally because
most OF the colleges had first-class plum
gers on their squads-men capable of
winning points
No other colleges have requested adj

pionship tournament win again be Unit
