The controversy between the sink
ing fund commission and the Palmetto
National bank Is whether the 100000
that the bank has agreed to lend the
state is to commence drawing interest
all at once, or interest is to commence
from the date Of the taking up Of each
installment Of $4,000. According to
our understanding the contract is that
interest shall commence upon each in
stallment as the same is put to the
credit Of the state, and the whole
amount of interest will not begin to
run until the last installment is put to
the credit of the safe. There is room
for another contention, Of course;
but it does not appear to be war
ranted by the letter Of the contract
as implied in the original correspond
ence. There is some reason in the
suggestion that the bank needs all the
notes at the outset so as to further
facilitate the borrowing of the money
We are inclined to believe that the
money will be loaned in some kind OF
fashion.

The intimation of Provisional Pres
ident Huerta that the question Of his
recognition Is party matter, and that
the American people, as such, are
friendly to him, received black eye In
the senate yesterday when leading Re-
publican sena tors expressed themselves
to the contrary. Senator Penrose said
he was not in favor of the appropria-
tion Of few hundred thousand dollars
to take Americans out of Mexico, where
he claimed they had right to be. but
he would vote for an appropriation OF
100000 to send American troops
there to protect them. This, Of course,
Is not to be understood as backing up
President Wilson; but 1t should be
rather discouraging to Mr.. Huerta. The
dispatches Of last night said II was the
intention Of the president to read
message to congress on the subject
next Monday. 1t Is expected that he
will make public recent correspondence
and tell the senators and representa-
tives exactly what he thinks should be
done. There Is still no reason to be-
lieve, however, that the president
stands for intervention.

ed the barong from the other man and
finished him with 1t. During the strug-
gle, however, Whitney received bad
wounds.

MCManigaI Goes

TO HAVE SCAR REMOVED FROM
 FOREHEAD
AN IDENTIFYING MARK
Dynanniter Not Anxious to Be Reeoa- nized by Former Associates-'in Poor Heaith," Says FrederioIss.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. 4.-The poor health of Ortie E. McManigal, the con fessed dynamiter, was the reason gtv- en today by District Attorney John D. Fredericks for ordering what IS be- Heved to be the permanent release from the county jail of the untried CO., worker of the McNamara brothers and chief witness against 33 labor union leaders who were sentenced to the fed eral penitentiary at Leavenworth for complicity in a nation wide dynamite conspiracy.
 "In Poor Health" Says Fredericks.
 "McManigal has been in poor health for some time" Fredericks said today. "and he has been taken out of jail on the advice of physician. He may be back in a few days, a few weeks or few months"
 MT. Fredericks would give no fur ther information.
 To Have Scar Removed.
 According to jail attendants, Mc- ManigaPs appetite and constantly in creasing girth and weight indicated that his i'll health might have been due to overeating. They said, however, that he had actually gone to a hospi- tai but it was to have a surgical op- eration performed to remove from his forehead a great scar by which ne feared former associates might recog- nize him.

ENGINEER CLAIMED
 HE WAS OVERWORKED
On Trial for Death of Victim of North
 Kent Wreck.

LitChfield, Conn, Nov. 4.-The jury in the trial of Engineer William H. Rigby, charged with manslaughter in connection with the wreck at North Kent last June, failed to agree this afternoon, after deliberating several hours. Judge Curtiss requested them to try to get together and agree and return a verdict at the opening of the superior court tomorrow morning.
 Testimony of several trainmen dis closes the fact that the engineers of both trains in the collision had orders to pass at North Kent, where the acci- dent occurred. Rigby, who was in charge of the special deadhead train that crashed into milk train. said that he had been overworked and had for gotten the order Testimony showed that he had a copy of the dispatch, telling him to pass at North Kent in his pocket.
 Counsel for Rigby maintained that the engineer was confused, owing to the fact that three stations, close to- getner had similar names, Kent, North Kent and South Kent. He pointed out that the public utilities commission had ordered two of these names changed on account of the liability of confusion.
 Hugh S. Lane. conductor of the milk train Fireman c. w. Welch, Engineer Leroy Patchen, and Train Dispatcher Mccall of Waterbury, testified that both trains had orders to pass on the siding.

 Boston, Nov. 4-David I. Walsh, q democrat and member of the bar, was elected governor today by a plurality estimated at 5O,000.

HUERTA WARNED BY THE
 UNITED STATES
PURPORT OF MESSAGE
President Wilson lntimates That He May Ask Congress to Authorize Him to Employ "stern Measures"


 Mexico City, Nov. 1.-The undercur- rent of the conversation at the na- tionai palace tonight carried rumors regarding President Huerta's attitude in the face of Washington's demands that he retire, but the president him. self preserved an enigmatical reserve.
 Communication Was Mandatory.
 Huerta's intirnates are familiar with the terms of the communication, which they regard as practically mandatory. The memorandum from the adminiS- tratton at Washington states that un- less General Huerta retires immediate ly and thereafter has nothing to do with the conduct of affairs or the formation of a new government, the president of the United States will is sue an ultirnatum which, if rejected, will cause him to call upon congress to authorize him to use sterner meth ods.
 A Gentle Reminder.
 Tn the memorandum it is impressed upon General Huerta that his retire ment from the presidency and non-in- reference on his part are the only steps which will be acceptable to the American government. He is pointed ly reminded that any attempt upon his part to leave as his successor any of those men connected with the coup d'etat by which he obtained the presi- dency, or to utilize in the proposed government any of those chosen in the recent elections, even those named as congressman, would result in the def mite breaking off of all relations.
 Steps for New Election.
 It is suggested that General Huerta be succeeded by some man or small group of men who, will conduct the affairs of government temporarily somewhat on the line of a commission form of government, and it is under stood that this man oC group of men shall immediately take steps to call new elections for the purpose of es- tablishing a permanent government.
 No Further Temporizina.
 General Huerta is reminded that the United States Is anxious to avoid trou- b1e as much for the welfare of Mexico as to preserve international peace He is finally urged to abandon power and to do it immediately, since the Amer fcan government, it is indicated. will tolerate no further temporizing

INTERVENTION A MISTAKE"
General Carranza Sends Message to
 Secretary Bryan.

Nogales. Sonora, Nov 4.-Genera1 Venustiano Carranza, head of the Mex ican cOnstitutionaists revolutionary movement, asked Dr. Henry Allen Tupper of the international peace fo- rum, to telegraph Secretary of State Bryan and learn if the reported American communication to Huerta indicated an intention to intervene with arms in Mexico
 The first chief of the constitutional ists also desired Dr. Tupper to eX- press to Mir. Bryan his belief that arm ed intervention would be grave mis- take and unealled for, since the con stituticnaHsts were convinced that with the privilege of freely importing arms and war munitions they would be able to overthrow the Huerta regime in a. short time. On the other hand, General Carranza said it would require years for the United States to Pacify Mexico.
 To his original request. presented Sunday to the American officials in Washington. General Carranza added another tonight He not only desires the embargo on the export of arms to Mexico lifted but wants the privilege of transporting his soldiers overAmer- ican territory,

MEANS INTERVENTION.
London Papers So Interpret the Mes
 sage to Huerta.

London, Nov. 5.-The London morn ing papers in editorials on the Mexi- can situation express the belief that although the report of the nature of the Washington communication might be inaccurate, President Wilson would ultimately be driven to intervention.
 The Morning Post says:
 Tt is more important for the United States to secure good government than in any of the smaller states, and if this end can only be achieved by intervention her people will not be daunted by the cost"
 The Express contends that delay only increases the difficulties and that the United States must either act and rescue Mexico from chaos or the Mon roe doctrine must be revised
 The Times thinks that any attempt to break down Huerta's influence without intervention would result in increasing his pretension, his post as a patriot and the champion of national rights
