PERSONAL TRAITS
MEX|CO'S
A Far Seeing Man Whose
ShreWdness Won the
Admiration of Diaz.

~ UT of three years of ceaseless
imbroglio in Mexico several fig
" ures have been in the ascendan.
cy only to wane with the com
ing of overwhelming power from hid
den sources. But today aligned
against each other are two figures that
command the attention of the civilized
world. They are Victoriano Huerta and
General Venustiano CarranZa.
Huerta as provisional president
faced the most forceful revolution in
the republics history when General
Carranza, governor of the state of Goa
hula, declaring himself the constitu-
tionally elected president of the coun-
try. declared war upon the faction
charged repeatedly with responsibility
for the assassination of President Ma
dero.
Both Huerta and Carranza are mill
tary men reared in the Porfirio DiaZ
school. Huerta received his military
training rs a member of the Chapulte-
pee cadets, an organization similarly
constituted to the West Point of the
United States. He early demonstrated
that he was a born soldier He was
eighteen when Porfirio Diaz appointed
him. then a resident of Chihuahua. to
a cadetship. He passed four years in
the military school and then joined a
coast regiment.
But in 1899, at the age of thirty-five,
he emerged once more as a man who
had served twelve years of active, rou
tine army life and with the rank of
lieutenant colonel in command Of a
military station.
Farseeing, Merciless Strategy.
He had many adventures with brig
ands, and one of them happened to be
4 turning point in his career, says
writer in the New York Press. On
mountain pass, accompanied by two or
three of his military family, when
group of men sprang out of the under
brush, covered them with rifles and
called on them to surrender.

have made resistance. He did not
Ills mind leaped far ahead to a possi-
ble denouement worth while, and, prob
ably to the inner disgust of his COM
pamons, he surrendered at once with
out even a show of fight.
Pleased as could be, the highway
men admitted that they were part of
Zegazas bandits and conducted the
distinguished prisoners to Zegaza's hut,
and there after brief parley Zegaza
made a proposition whereby Huerta
would receive material benefits If he
would keep Zegaza informed of the
days when Huerta's soldiers would be
absent from a neighboring village,
leaving it unprotected.
LET me know in advance" said
Zegaza, when you are going to send
your troops away from the village to
patrol surrounding country, and on
such days my band will quietly drop
into the village, take any wines, food
and money we may be in need of and
depart without the necessity of killing
any villagers or putting you to the
trouble of fighting u.s."

inducements he may have offered is
not recorded. But it is recorded that
within two weeks Huerta sent mes
sage of two words to Zegaza. and the
two words were:
Next Thursday"
Thursday came, and with it came to
the village Zegaza and his band of out
laws. AS soon as they were safely in
the main street a detachment of Huer
tas troops suddenly appeared in front
Of them and opened fire.
Several of Zegaza's men toppled from
their saddles and fell to earth dead.
Others were wounded, and all were at
once surrounded and placed under ar
rest. ZegaZa himself. described as
fearless, desperate man, was shot one
week later, 'in an attempt to escape
from prison." according to the report
at the time
News of this sharp, quick, strategic
action reached President Diaz, who
had kept his eye on Huerta ever since
as lad he entered the military school
at Chapultepec. Soon Lieutenant Colo
mel Huerta was ordered to report at
the palace in Mexico City. Thither he
went and was told to choose what post
he liked best under the war depart
ment.
Knows Every Inch of Mexico.
His choice was not that of com
manding garrison in a city where he
could attend dinners and balls and
where he could see the drama asso-
ciate with interesting men and meet
charming women. Instead of such a
post he chose to be appointed chief of
the geographical department-to the
surprise Of all who did not know him
well.
And as soon as possible he again de-
parted from Mexico City, and for an
other period of ten long years he was
engaged in going from one end of Mex
leo to another, studying the location
of rivers, plateaus, mountain ranges,
surveying hundreds and thousands of
square miles and becoming intimately
acquainted with every nook and cram
ny and water course of his difficult
country until, when he once more
emerged In 1902, he probably possess
ed more intimate personal knowledge
of Mexico than any other living man.
He finished this survey and map
making work with the rank of a brig
adler general.
Bravery Unquestioned.
General Huerta was born in Chi
huahua about sixty years ago. He is
married and has several children.
In personality General Huerta is a
man Of strong will and severe dis
ciplinarian. While recently the state
ment has been made that his supre-
macy in the Mexican government has
made him wealthy; on the other hand.
he is said to be comparatively poor.
His personal bravery is unquestioned,
as indicated by his act in saving a
small community of foreign residents
from rebel attack while in command
of the southern troops under Presi-
dent Diaz. With but few accompa-
nying him, General Huerta rode
through the rebel lines In an automo-
bile and returned at the head of a
force sufficient to drive off the attack
! ing body.

ton regarding the loss of the threat

more to do with the financial trou-

Of the city government. He declared
that such condition would exist an

Mr.. Hearn said there was no need
for alarm. The banks have always
aided the city, he said. and would
continue to do so. He argued that
while 1t did not appear to be very
profitable investment for the banks,
with the present financial crisis at
hand in city affairs, yet the banks
felt that they should aid Pine Bluff
whenever they could and would do
so as in the past.
It developed during the discussion
that the banks of the city had not
taken any scrip since Mayor Bloom
took office, but that what city scrip
had been disposed of was purchased
by individual investors, and there was
little Of that. Mayor Bloom insist
ed on every city department being
cared for in the financial relief and
this program was finally adopted.

His Prediction Has Come True
Likes the New Mayor of

London, Nov. 5.-Wm. F. McCombsa
in an interview with the international
News Service today, expressed himself
as follows concerning the result OF
the election in the United States:
1.-THE predominance of the regular
Republican members in the New York
State Legislature verify the prediction
Which l made after the presidential
campaign last Fall. 1t will be remem.,
bered that 1 said a THAT time that
the Republican party was not dead,
and that it would not be secondary to
the progressive.
'My idea was, and is, that the Re-
publican party as such, will absorb
much of the Progressive party Of Its
strength throughout the country and
that the Democratic party will take
what remains. The Republican party
will Of course, be forced to revive
many of It's practices.
1.-THE result of the election in states
outside of New York" he continued,
indicate very clearly the general ap-
prevail of the policy of the Democratic
administration. Inasmuch as the pres,
emit administration is progressive
look for great concession from the
Progressive party to the Democrats
So far as the state Of New York Il
concerned the result Of the elections
are due to very fixed and unusual
series of circumstances which in nc
wise truly reflects the attitude OF the
Democrats Of the state and nation"
When asked for an opinion concern
ing Mr.. Mitchell, Mr.. McComb said:
II have known Mr.. Mitchell for
long time and have great respect toi
his integrity and ability. feel thai
he will make most experienced
mayor"

[BIG NAVAL DISPLAY

Washington, Nov. 5.-A secret
message from United States Chare
d,Affairs O'Shaughnessy at Mexico
City stirred all the administration Of
ficials in the three departments OF
the State, War and Navy Building.
The immediate effect of the message
was that the Secretary of the Navy
ordered two additional warships to
the Mexican waters without the usual
statement that they were intended
to relieve other ships.
The result of all the orders of the
Navy Department within the last ten
days is to secure demonstration
by the Navy against Huerta, with the
largest number of American ships
used in foreign waters for hostile
military purposes since the Spanish
war.
The power of a naval demonstra-
ton in force will be tried before any
other action is suggested by the
President to Congress or to any
other authority.
The two ships ordered to assist In
the demonstration which will consist
of fifteen war vessels are the Cruiser
Chester, for the east coast, and the
Cruiser Pittsburgh for the west coast.
The Chester will go straight to
Vera Cruz in day or two from
League Island, and into the inner
harbor and stay there. She s.equip-
ped with the most powerful wire
less apparatus in the Navy and can
communicate directly with Arlington
and therefore practically with the
White House itself. This much hav-
ing become known today the admin
istration closed up tighter than a
clam and is making profound mys-
terry of the situation and it's pro-
grma.
All sources OF news have been
closed. The State Department, which
has recently discussed foreign al
fairs fully, declined today to admit
or deny anything. 1t was denied
explicitly at the White House, how
ever, that Huerta has not sent any
message to this government, in which
he indicates q weakening of his posi-
ton.
The main definite result is that
the administration has thrown off
the mask of saying that it Is merely
protecting American citizens and If
now asserting its right at LEASE to
send ships Of War to Mexican ports
without hindrance from Huerta and
is trying to teach him that his best
plan is to surrender to q naval
demonstration rather than combin'
ed naval and military demonstra-
ton.
There Is no question but that the
news from Special Envoy Lind gives
precisely the result of the election
in Mexico which the President said
last Thursday he would await before
taking any. action.
It is definitely known further that

SMILES OVER DEFEAT

New York, Nov. o.-Charles r.
Murphy will never dictate the nomi-
nation of anotherc andidate for office
nor manage another campaign for
Tammany Hall. This was the posi-
tive declaration made by six of the
foremost leaders of that organization
tonight.
Murphy himself answered all ques-
tons by saying: There will be
another day"
Mccall, the Tammany candidate for
mayor, left the Boss to do the ex-
planning. He left the city for an
indefinite stay at Hot spnDss. Aside
from his defeat in New York City the
worst blow dealt Murphy is the fact
that he will now be ignored in the
administration of New York staas
affairs.
The name most heard in connec-
ton with the leadership of Tammany
Hall, after the retirement of Murphy,
is that of Maurice Featherston. MUIR

his desk in Tammany Hall at the

in the light of what has happened
we must make some allowances for

not me-"
One thing stands out beyond all
others as a result OF the New York
election: Mitchell and his associates
will control the board OF estimates
and all of the administrative depart
ments of the city government. Little
was left to Tammany after the vote
had ben counted. Murphy saved q
few scattering offices, but he lost his
county ticket, including the fat office
of sheriff.
Turning to the state the result
shows that Tammany elected % meme
bers of the Assembly out Of the i63
returned by New York City. The
lower house will be controlled by
Republicans.
After complete tabulation OF yes
terday's returns, Mitchers plurality
Is 121,209. George McAneny's plus
rality was 73,143 and William A.
Pendergasts 41,7SS.
Marcus Marks was elected pre-
sident Of the Burrough OF Manhattan

TO DISPOSE Of
CITY SCRIP MONTHLY
Banks of City and Insurance
Men Will Relieve Finan-
cial Troubles
JOINT MEETING HELD
Mayor Bloom Refused To Make More
Debts Until Present Debts Are
Paid.

AT joint meeting of Mayor Simon
Bloom and members OF the city coua-
Gil with the members of the Pine
Bluff Clearing House Association
yesterday afternoon at the rooms of
the Chamber of Commerce, which
was arranged by the members of the
council in session Monday night, plans
were perfected whereby the financial
troubles of the city will be remedied,
for the present at least. Preliminary
steps were taken that will in all
probability result in sufficient funds
being raised, through monthly sub
scription, to enable the city to meet
it's current expenses for the next
twelve months and to pay off the en-
ployees of the various city depart
ments promptly.
The meeting was presided over by
Mayor Simon Bloom and the finan-
cial affairs of the city were gone into
in detail. After the matter was
thoroughly thrashed out it was final
1y decided that committee, COM
posed of r. NJ. Rosenberg, chair
man; A. W. Mills and Pinchback
Taylor, dispose of city scrip to local
merchants to insure the redemption
of at least $3.50 a month for twelve
months. This money is to be used
in the maintenance of the Fire De.
partment. The Pine Bluff Clear
ing House Association members will
hold a meeting Friday afternoon at 4
O'Clock, at which time it is expected
that the bankers will agree to take
enough city scrip monthly for a
period of twelve months to defray
the expense of the police depart
ment, street department and other
expense of the city. The Bank of
Pine Bluff announced at the meeting
that 1t would purchase $3.50 worth of
scrip every month for twelve months
and the Citizens Bank will take $3.50
a month. The other banks will make
known their subscriptions at the Fri
day meeting.
The meeting yesterday was also
attended by number of insurance
men and others interested in city af-
fairs.
Mayor Bloom, W. C.. Hudson, Ben
B. We'll, Arthur Mills, E. B. Bloom,
W. B. Sorells, Joe Nichol, Fred Fox,
J. E. Boyce, F.. M. Rosenberg and
others made speeches in which they
reviewed the financial situation Of
the city.
Mayor Bloom said that he had
personally made arrangements to get
finances to operate city departments
in recent weeks, but he did not feel
that he should continue to furnish
the city with money. when there was
no effort being made on the part of
others to assist the city government
financially. He put it up to the
bushes men and bankers. He de-
clared that he had refused to place
an order for fire hose because he did
not want to involve the city in fur
ther debt until there was some way
devised to meet debts. past due.
Alderman Fox declared that the
city was being operated at less ex-
pense under the present administra.
ton than ever before. Alderman
