''You lie, you blackhand mutt,
said Webb. "You did it your
self"
So the situation resolves itself
into this:
A policeman was murdered.
The only witnesses of the muir
der are two crooks. Each crook
says the other committed the
murder.
Cassella today squirmed IN
der Webb's accusation.
Webb is LYING to save himself
from hanging" he snarled.
Hanging is too good for him.
I'll do all in my power to make
him swing"
Then he added to his conflict
ing statements with the follow
ing:
webb did not escape from the
fiat after the murder by the roof.
He ran down the front stairs. I
know because the man who used
to do our laundry passed him on
the stairs, It's funny the police
who were guarding the front of
the house did not see him"
The police are now searching
for the laundryman, whose name
they refuse to give out.
But this latest statement of
Cassella's, entirely outside the
time he has taken to tell it, can
not possibly be true for this rea-
son:

when they saw him. Webb ran
into bunch of teamsters in the
alley, and the teamsters, seeing
the revolvers, scattered.
And Webb could not have got
into the alley if he had run down
the front stairs. He had to get
into it by the roof,
Of course, the first thing the.
police are doing with Webb is
easy to guess.
Webb has been taken to the
Hyde Park police station, and
there turned over to Police Cap
tain Paddy LAWN, the man who
failed to capture him.
LAWN is going after Webb to
get a confession that he killed
Hart LAWN means to get that
confession, and get it as quickly
as possible, because on Webb's
confession rests the only surely
of conviction.
LAWN is one of the best little
confession-extraCtors in the city.
His method of getting confeS-
sions is fairlK we'll known. 1t is
not a gentle method.
LAWN is sore at Webb anyhow.

Johnson censured Birmingham for

any rowdyism. The American League

told the Washington business men that

which he was free to run under the
rifle fire OF his guards. He fell dead
under their bullets.
The rebel troops are not to be re-
moved from their positions for two or
three days, as disorders are feared.
Gustavo Madero was regarded as a
much more powerful man than the
president. After Francisco Madero
quarreled with DR.. Vasquez Gomez he
and Gustavo forced Jose Pine Suarez
to the front as vice president, though
he was then little known. Enemies
of Madero never forgave this and it
was really the reason for starting the
government party, which showed
systematic opposition to the schemes
of Gustavo Madero
After Gustavo's arrest and during
his removal through the streets, the
crowds even made efforts to lay hands
on him. Heavy guards of rurales We're
necessary to insure his safety.
Gustavo Madero was at one time
minister Of finance. He visited the
United States in 1914.

CHANGE IS UNLIKELY IN
THE AMERICAN PROGRAM

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20-Although
its plans remained set for action in
case Of emergency, the United States
government was distinctly relieved at
the news from Mexico telling Of the
abdication of President Madero and
the apparent settlement of the civil
war that has swept the Mexican cap
ital. Preparations for eventualities,
however, We're not relaxed. 1t was
recognized that readjustment in gov
ernment was filled with danger and
no orders were issued that would halt
the movement already begun.
Gathered under the avowed decla-
ration that they were to be modified
for practice with the Atlantic fleet at
Guantanamo, Cuba, 1000 marines will
be sent to that port as originally or
dered, unless there is good reason for
their recall. The navy department de-
MED that it had issued any orders in
any way setting aside the original plan
OF action.
Although the tension has been re-
laXed, the attitude of the administration
remains one Of great caution in deal
ing with the situation.
Officials realize that any outward
exhibition at this stage either Of con-
dOlence for the fallen Madero regime
CT satisfaction in the accession to power
Of the new military party might be
quickly resented by the Mexican peo-
pie and do much to prejudice the status
Of Americans in Mexico.
For the present the attitude Of the
state department will be one of keen
observation and noninterference.
Steps Of Sraver Importance remain
to he taken in the Mexican capital be-
fore the Diaz revolution can be accept
ed as completely successful. Ambas-
sadOr Wilson and other members Of
the diplomatic body of the Mexican
capital will Immediately recognize Gen.
eral Huerta as the de facto leader of
the temporary government. This must
be done that foreign representatives
may properly look after the interests
Of their own people.
But what will follow that action
must be determined by the develop
ments of the immediate future. for
there must be substantial evidence of
the permanence Of the new govern
ment and its ability to bring peace
out OF the chaos which has prevailed
in Mexico before political recognition
may be extended.
Events are moving so rapidly in the
Mexican capital, however, that it is
expected such recognition soon can be
extended.
Two factors that must be taken in
to account are the probable course OF
the OroZcO-SalaZar revolutionists in the
north and the Zapata rebellion in the
south, for if the leaders OF these
movements, as threatened, hold out
against the new Huerta regime, another
period of disorder and suspense is ex-
pected.
While military and naval prepara-
tions for the dispatch Of forces to
Mexican waters or nearby points, such
as Guantanamo, have not been relaxed,
