PRESIDENT WILSON
 INVERSE TO RECESS.
Wants Continuous Session of Con
 gress to Pass Currency Bill.

Washington, Oct. 12-President Wilson let it be known today that he did not favor 9. recess of campaign at this time but desires continuous and interrupted consideration of the pending currency bill. Various reports that the president was attempting to force the senate to act more speedily than it wished. and efforts on the part of some democratic senators to secure recess until November IS while the senate banking and cur rency committee was at work on the house bill, brought from those close to the president a clarification of the White House position.
 The president, they said had no idea of attempting to fix an arbitrary time when the currency bill should or should not be enacted into law. His wish as expressed throughout his conferences with senate leaders has been for continuous attention to the currency measure with the confidence Shat with concentrated effort and study the bill would be out of the senate before the beginning of the December session of congress
 While averse to any haste that would impair the value of currency reform. the president Is anxious that 1T the senate can improve upon the house bill. 1t will proceed to do SO He stfll believes. however that all this can be accom- plished during the seven weeks remaining of the present session.

 According to Captain DescheIles, smoke was still rising from the hull when he sighted it Saturday and the steel plates were so hot that the waves flashing against them sent up clouds of steam. First Officer Val and boat load of sailors went to the Templemore and reported that she was apparently total wreck Her decks had fallen in and her masts gone by the board

Mexico City, Oct. 12-There has been endless speculation here regard ing the effect of Provisional President Huerta's coup d'etat. Many appear TO believe that the logical result will be a split in the army, which they assert has only been held together by t5e force of General Huerta's personality. They argue that there has been disSat- isfaction over Huertas course in gen eral and that this will test loyalty to the danger point. They look For startling developments in the near fU- ture.
 Large Element Sustans Huerta.
 On the other hand there is a large element which believes that Presi- dent IIuerta took the only possible course and expresses wonder that he had not taken the step long ago. itJJ erta's friends say that it is no secret that had the deputies believed any stand with them they would have CVe"- ridden Huerta completely and taken the reigns of government wholly in their hands.

 The dissolution of congress will not affect the holding of the election in the least. The ballots will be cast in October. The only change in the cleo tion programme will be that new sen ators and deputies will be elected to replace these put out of office by the coup d'etaU.

WILSON IN CLOSE TOUCH.
Receiving Frequent Messages Regard
 ing Mexican Situation.

Washington, Oct. 12.-Despatches to the state department tonight reported about 90 Mexican deputies still under arrest. Originally it was reported that 110 were arrested, and in view of the statement of Manuel Garza AIdape the deputies had been released" it is presumed here that not all of the 11O finally were imprisoned after the epi- sode at the Mexican chamber of depu- ties on Friday.
 Throughout the day messages came to the state department describing the situation in the Mexican capital as quiet, but fraught with all sorts of possibilities. There were no predic- tions of what would result from the arrest of the deputies, but attention was drawn to the approaching return of Felix Diaz, en route homeward, as likely to have some effect on the situa- tion. Some of the imprisoned deputies were close friends of Diaz, and his in- fiuence may be brought to bear to se- cure their release.
 President Wilson read the despatches from Mexico, manifesting a keen inter- est in the situation, but no comment was made at the White House or the state department. Secretary Bryan was due to return late tonight from Knoxville, Tenn, where he delivered an address before the conservation congress. He will discuSs the situa- tion with the president tomorrow.
 Those officials who commented on the situation informally declared tho American government probably would take no steps for several days, being content to play the role of observer. The effect of the incidents of the last few days upon the American policy, it is generally agreed here, will be to make even more remote any prospect of recognition by the United States of the authorities now in power in Mexi- co and to result in the closest scrutiny for the use of the military in connec- tion with the election of Oct. 26. Off, cial advices said tonight no excitement was apparent in Mexico City, but that there were many rumors of disaffection among the federal troops because of lack of pay.
 It has not yet been established by the state department whether the fall of Torreon was due to mutiny in the federal ranks or the strategy of the constitutionalists. Official reports say that the downfall of this important center has had a depressing effect on the army of General Huerta.

For Poisoning
 Admiral Eaton
THE WIDOW TO BE PLACED ON

THE MOTIVE UNKNOWN
Government Has Not Disclosed This Feature of It's case-Defence Claims Drugs Self administered.

Plymouth, Mass, Oct. 12-A1rS. Jen- | nie May Easton will be put on tria Tuesday for the murder of her hus- band, Rear Admiral Joseph Giles Eaton.
 The government contends that Mrs Eaton gave the admiral poison witt his meals at their home in Assinip- pi. The defense claims that he die6 from drugs self administered.
 Motive of Crime Not Disclosed. District Attorney Albert S. Barze; has said that the government is fuuS ready to proceed with the trial, anC that not all the evidence has been di- vulged. William A. Morse, chief counsel for Mrs. Eaton, declares that the defense can show that the poisoI found in the admiraFs stomach caTnC probably from a collection of strange subtle poisons in which the maya officer constantly dabbled
 So far as known tonight, the govern ment officials have been unsuccessful in their hunt for the original con- tainer of the poison, the place where it was bought and the purchaser The motive of the alleged crime remains a mystery also, so far as any state ment by the prosecution goes.
 Nursed the First Mrs. Eaton.
 Last March. three weeks after tht death of the admiral. it was intimatec by the district attorney that Mrs. Eaton's mental condition would be the subject of inquiry but no move ir that direction has been made so fa1 as is known
 The prisoner was formerly the wife of D. H. Ainsworth. who was a. one time a clerk in the United States sen ate. While Admiral Eaton and his first wife were living in Washington Mrs Ainsworth called as a nurse tC care for Mrs. Eaton. who was III The acquaintance grew into a friend ship and according to the nurse, Mrs Eaton with her dying breath, be- queathed the admiral to her care with the words: Marry Joe, my dear, an6 make him good"

 The admiral met with financial re- verses in 1907 and he bought 9 lit tie farm in Assinipppi where he turn ed to chicken raising. Two years later he adopted a child. It lived but 3 short time and at it's death Mrs Eaton publicly charged her husband with having poisoned it. Investigation fail ed to substantiate the charge
 Poison Talk in Eaton Household.
 Poison talk in the Eaton home was revived a year or two later when Mrs Eaton complained to friends that the admiral kept all sorts of queer East Indian poisons about the place. She wrote to friend that he was 's subtle, dangerous maniac" and that she was in fear of her life.
 Mrs. Eaton is 45 years old Her oo y.1v- of inent Virginia family. the HarrIsons and in Was 9ington will be described at tn ertial, witnesses having been summoned from both places. Most of those called, however, will be neighbors from Assinippi.
 The trial will be presided over by Chief Justice Aiken. He will have an associate justice with him, the ap- pointment of whom has not been an nOunced.
