DEATH
OF ANOTHER
MADERO
plAz CANDIDATE FOR PREsI-
DENcY-HUERTA MASTER OF
slTuArioN-oRozco LOYAL.

Mexico City, Feb. 27.-To the report
that Emilio Madero was killed is added
a rumor that his brother, Raoul, has
met the same fate at Torreon. Both
these young men were actively allied
with Carranzas, and if true, their TAX
ing off doubtless will have a deterrent
effect on rebel activity in that dis
trict.
According to government advices
Carranzas. former governor of Goa
hula, is making little Roadway in the
new revolution inaugurated by him.
with Saltillo as base.
Carranzas still holds the region
about Monterey, but General Trevino,
the Federal commander, who is at
Monterey, is said to have dispatched
troops in the direction of Saltillo. The
government believes there will be lit
tie difficulty in regaining the rebel ter
ritory.
That region to the north of Monte
rev. including Nuevo Laredo, now held
by the rebels, the government asserts
soon will be added to the loyal dis
tricts. Francisco de la Barra, Minis
ter of Foreign Relations, is authority
for the statement that former Cover
nor Villareal indicated desire to CO
operate with the new administration.
! Col. Pascual Orozco, ST., is known to
have been for a long time under the
domination of Pascual Orozco, Jr., and
telegram sent by the latter today to
General Felix Diaz, promising absolute
allegiance to the government, is regard
ed as indicative of his fathers atti
tude
If all the leaders of Orozco's army
follow the example of their leader, Il
is practically certain that the Carran
zas movement will dwindle away, leav
ing the government only the Zapatists
problem to deal with.
In the capital rumors of plots ant
counter plots continue, but Presiden
Huerta appears to have an excellen
grip on affairs and to be working il
complete harmony with General Fell
Diaz, who desires the re-establishmen
of peace, as much or more than any
one, as he is preparing his campaign
for the presidency in the general elet
tons. Friends of Diaz met this aftei
noon and formally launched his cand
dacy.

the acre they will handle, from 1000
acres, 100000 bushels, which will
mean fully million cans.
This plant next season will give en-
ployment to fully $50 persons of whom
225 will be women.
There are no crops grown in this sec
tion more certain to yield every year
than sweet potatoes and sugar cane.
The matter of greatest Importance is
for those who grow these crops to learn
how to get the best results.
1t has been proven that yields of 600
bushels of potatoes to tile acre and
forty tons of cane on the same area
may be secured from lands in this sec
ton. If only 200 bushels of potatoes
were secured as an average, the gross
yield from one thousand acres would
be around $4,000. Should the cane
yield be only twenty tons, it would
mean gross income of 500 for every
acre grown in cane in this territory.
The canning of potatoes and cane is
in its infancy here, but that it will
grow steadily is already assured by
the success of the McInnis Canning
Company's first seasons operations.

The McInnis Canning Company is
today shipping its first carload of cane
syrup. The shipment goes to Okla
homa and the order was placed after
the buyers had fully tested the samples
sent at their request.
The McInnis Canning Company's
first years operations have proved so
satisfactory that they are already con-
tracing for large quantities of pota-
toes and cane for another season.
Over 600 acres have been. contracted
and they feel assured the number will
run up to 1000 acres.
In their first season they canned
10000 gallons of syrup and thirty car
loads of sweet potatoes.
Some idea of what these figures rep
resent may be gained from the state
ment that a carload shipment averages
1900 No. cans, which for thirty
cars means 100000 cans. AS each can
weighs 3 pounds the total weight Of
the potato products is upwards of
million pounds

The Transfer Decision.

The decision of the Court of Appeals
that the law requiring the giving of recip-
rocal transfers between the Metropolitan
Coach Company, operating the line of
herdlcs. and the Capital Traction Com
pany is constitutional and enforcea BILE is
OF more Importance than the direct issue
involved in the value TO the public Of the
specific transfer arrangement in this case
The court upholds the law on two
grounds first that there is no violation
of contract in the amendment of any act
of Congress affecting public utility
which uses public spaces. and second
that in this particular instance there is
no ground to view the exaction of free
reciprocal transfers confscatory and
therefore unconstitutional
OF more Importance than the ruling
is the courts definition of the right of
Congress to modify the terms upon which
street railway company may continue
to operate in the District of Columbia
The grant of charter or franchise by
Congress does not pass any irrevocable,
inalienabie or irreducible rights. Accord
ing to the view of the Court of Appeals
Congress can annul the charter of a
street railway company or any other
public utility that uses public spaces for
the supposed benefit of the people as well
as for profit. Certainly if Congress can
annui a charter or franchise it can modify
It, 1t cannot, of course, require any cor
