Their plea was made personally to
United States Consul Canada and
Special Envoy John Lind. They were
told that the American Government
already had made representations to
ths Mexican capital to secure a fair

Diaz's Prestige Gone.
Felix Diaz. now being on board the
United States battleship Louisiana. to
which he was transferred from the
gunboat Wheeling, he has lost all the
prestige he gained by aiding in the
overthrow of Madero.
Even friends of Diaz declare he lost
by "cowardice" his opportunity for
becoming a national hero. They as
sert that by going to Mexico City he
could have brought to his banner
thousands of Mexicans who even yet
are thrilled by the name of Porfirio
Dlaz, his uncle.
The Mexican Government will, take
no steps to secure the return Of DiaS.
He has himself done what the Huerta
emissaries sent to Havana to keep
him out of the country failed to do,
and there is no doubt that Huerta
will be glad to have him away from
Mexico.
Hatred Against U. S. Consul.
bittr hatred for the United
states Consul, William V. Canada,
has developed as result of the Dia&
mix-up. An investigation is being
conducted by the Mexican Govern
ment to put Canada in a bad light,
and this already has had Its effect.
The proprietor of the German Hotel
has made affidavits before witnesses
that Canada was the direct cause Of
Diaz going to the hotel, and was the
agent who negotiated for the rent Of
the apartments in which Diaz lived
in while there. In proof Of this he
told the authorities that when Dias
left on short order without paying
his bill, the bill was sent to Mr..
Canada. The Mexican Government is
taking care to see that all the infor-
nation relative to Canada's relations
with Mexicans in a political way
reach the ears of the populace, ant
thus the hostilities Of Mexicans
against the United States officials %
being constantly heightened.

Rosser's Introductory remarks
were called forth by the severe
st-m:ures that Solicitor Dorsey
in the closing Of his address to
the court laid upon Attorney
Reuben Arnold, who had pre-
ceded him and roundly had de-
nounced the Solicitor and the de
tectives working with him.
Attacks Arnold Only.
Il am going to assume said the
solicitor, that Mr.. Rosser does not
propose to make such an unjust at
tack upon me, and therefore. / will
confne my remarks to Mr.. Arnold"
you needn't assume anything OF
the kind" interrupted Rosser. "You
don't imagine that | am going TO be
bound by your assumptions, do you?
shall find occasion to criticise your
Illegal and unfair acts and am will
ing to announce that at this time
Go ahead and SAY anything you
WISH ii doesn't make any difference
to me-" retorted the Solicitor, and
turned his attention to the remarks
which Attorney Arnold had made in
the course of his argument.
Through Mr. Arnold ne said, the
defendant in this case has charged
us with all kinds of crimes and trea-
sons. | suggest that Mr.. Arnold rid
from his mind and heart all of this
masma and putrefaction with which
his thoughts evidently are afflicted
He can not be content with any mild
remedial measure. His condition will
require the most drastic treatment.
IF he viii purge himself of some
of the unjust suspicious he has ea-
pressed he may regain much of the
d!sinterestedness that goes with a
the esteem of a highly abused and
much maligned public whom he has
vilified without measure Neither his
whine nor his snort ever will do ii.
The public he has maligned knows
well enough whether 1t is the prose
cution or the defense that is clean.
at is monstrous to assume that old
John Starnes is corrupt and a cold
blooded headhunter. It Is monstrous
TO assume that Pat Campbell and all
the other detectives who worked or
the case are corrupt; that all of us
are corrupt and merely seeking to
convict Frank because Of our person
al ambitions; that your, honor has
lost his head; that ! have lost mine
and that we are simply sending this
man to the gallows Irrespective of his :
guilt.
Jurors Are Defended.
IF Mr.. Arnold will exercise a lit
tie abstinence from the money OF
Franks poor Brooklyn relatives il
may prove a good step toward gaining
his erstwhile composure."
The Solicitor devoted practically the
entire day to a defense of A. II. Hen
slice and Marcellus Johenning, the ju-
rors charged by the defense with en-
tertaining bias and prejudice toward
the defendant before they were Sc
lected 10 sit ON the jury. Dorsey de-
sCiihed this accusation against Hen
slee and Johenning as the only nsw
phase which had arisen since the trial
and, consequently, the only one which
deserved any extended discussion, az
all the others han been settled once
and for all when the evidence wss
offered and accepted and the Jury -
turned its verdict Of guilty.

 ON NEWPORT EXCURSION
Tickets Were All Sold-1,o4o People on
 the Lowell.

For the Newport excursion on Thurs day by the steamer City of Lowell all the tickets available were sold out at Norwich and the other stations on Wednesday and the steamer took a crowd of 1,040 excursionists when she left the dock at New London. Most of the eXcursionists went there on spe- cial train and no tickets were sold at the New London office. crowd of 25 or 30 who would have liked to take in the excursion were turned down.
 One woman from Hartford decided not to make the trip when she heard two mariners near the freight shed entrance predict that the voyage would be productive of seasickness. She offered to sell two tickets and begged for customers. After working her way through the crowd to the woman another disappointed woman heard that the price was $5 per ticket. She refused to pay.
 Others would not buy at that price and the holder of the tickets sought in vain for buyers up to the second before the order for leaving came. Just as the gangplank started to move on to the wharf in the hands of the husky stevedores a young man offered $1.50 apiece for the tickets. The sale was consummated with no time to spare for the young man and his companion to hop aboard.
