 FEDERAL SOLDIERS
Friends of Accused General Believe Huerta Plans to Escheat His
 Fortune to Government.

Juarez, Mex, Nov. 5.--Gene1al Ter razas, one of the richest men in Mex ico, has been arrested by federal sol diers and will be taken to Mexico City for trial It is reported that he has been taken in custody because of support which he has been sec retly giving to the rebels.
 It is claimed that evidence con- victing him of rendering assistance to General Carranza was recently found on the body of rebel killed in an engagement near here. The general denies all knowledge of the cause of his arrest and declares his belief it is due to his refusal to sub scribe to the government loan which Huerta is trying to force the bankers to float.
 The friends of General Terrazas fear that Huerta plans to secure his conviction on the charge of assist ing rebels and that he will be sacri feed and his immense fortune es cheated to the government. It is ev- en hinted that the Mexican finance minister had the prosecution of the general in view when he recently an nounced that the government would soon raise $25,OOO,OOO with which to pay the back wages of government employees.

SENATOR BOASTS
 THE PRESIDENT Cummins Declares Wilson is More Of Dictator Than President and
 Overrules Congress.

Washington, Nov. 5.-Senator Cum mins, of Iowa, in speech last night bitterly denounced President Wilson, whom he characterized as dictator rather than a president. He declared that Wilson was overriding congress and was forcing his opinions to pre- vail despite the better judgment Of the members of congress. He was resorting to the usual political tricks in withholding patronage from Dem- ocrats who dared to differ with him on matters which concerned the coun- try generally.
 President Wilson, he declared, would discredit tue Democratic party before the people and would result in the industries of the country be- ing made to suffer by having to com- pete with cheap labor of foreign coun- tries. In speaking of the currency question Senator Cummins said the president has refused to accept the advice of the committee which urged reduction of the number of reserve banks. It was typical of him in all matters. Unless his own personal ideas prevailed he contended that the party principles were being violated and those opposed to him wer no longer Democrats.
