MEXlCO CITY, Feb. 24-An Of
cial investigation into the death OF
Madero and Suarez on Saturday
might Is to be begun at once The
general belief prevails that it will
substantiate the official version OF
the occurrence.
The fact that the bodies were re-
covered in the rear OF the penitenti-
airy was explained today by the state
ment that second encounter oc-
Cured close to the building.
IL is said that the automobile ran
along a side road and that Madero
and Suarez jumped out and were
running when they were caught be-
tween the fire of the guards and the
attacking party. This accounts for
wounds being inflicted on them from
different directions.
General Huerta and other author
tiles are earnest in their declaration
that the government was acting in
good faith and that the death of the
prisoners was due to unforeseen cir
cumstances.
With the passing of Francisco
Madero. the general opinion prevails
that the tenseness of the situation
has been relieved and that General
Huerta for the present holds the up
per hand in the country.
Juan Sanchez Azcona, Madero's
secretary, was released from prison
today.

Has Not Yet, Fully Made
Up His Mind on the
Senatorship.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. "a
The Washington Star Sunday pub
fishes the following articles from a
staff correspondent, who interviewed
Judge Nathan Goff, newly elected
United States senator from West
Virginia, at Richmond, Va:
1T is not true that | have formal
ly accepted the United States sena-
torship to which have been elected
by the legislature of West Virginia.
l have not and do not know positive.
ly that l will accept. l was elected
over my protest, and after l had
agreed to accept the nomination, or
to be candidate for the nomination,
solely on the condition that no other
candidate could be elected"
This was the declaration of Judge
Nathan Golf, of the United States
circuit court of appeals, here today
Judge Goff went to say that he had
been honored by the people of his
state, and it was the duty iof a pub
lie man to abide the will of the peo-
pie. He wants to remain on the
bench and still he wants to accept
the honor which has come to him.
This much is certain" added
Jude Goff, If / decide to accept it
will be with the understanding that
! am to remain on the bench till all
the cases in which have heard ar
guments shall have been decided and
opinions handed down. That is but
fair to the lawyers and litigalats to
save expense and time to them. That
would make my term begin about
the end Of next month"
It is plain that Judge Cor prefers
TO retain the judgeship, but he feels
that it is his duty to respond to the
call of the people of West Virginia.

PAINT CRDEK JUNCTION, W.
Va, Feb. 24-The militia in the
strike country has since Saturday
night arrested a number Of men al
legged to have been leaders IN the
disorders which led to the cali Or
troops into the Kanawha coal aelda.
Squads Of soldiers under eficIent
officers have secured every part az
the region and in the majority Or
instances the arrests were made
without disorder.
1t is reported that the information
leading up to these captures was se-
cured from men now confined In the
military pr.scn. 1t is also stated
that the military have enough eyi-
dence to convict some Of those ac
cused Of murder and other grave
crimes.

An Interesting report OF today was
that a strike is to be called in the
New river coal fields, and probably
in other coal mining sections Of the
state about Aprinl l. The New river
authorities, who are in touch with
the conditions, express the belief
that an effort is beng made to tie
up the coal mining industries Of the

sonality of his cabinet. 1t is admitted
that the field is narrowing, but the
status of the slate today did not show

Bryan and Wilson are in frequent
communication. No definite announce
ments concerning the cabinet have
come from Mr.. Wilson, and none will
be made until the entire cabinet is Sc
lected. 1t is explained that some men

CHARLES r. LIGHT
WILL BE PRE- SENT
At the Board Of Trade Lunch
con Tomorrow and Talk
Good Roads.

AT special meeting of the direc-
tors of the board of trade recently at
which were present Ira c. Post and
J. R. Wilson, highway engineer from
Washington, Pa, it was determined to
take the matter of further agitation
for good roads in Harrison county
before the next weekly luncheon of
the board of trade members, in an
,endeavor to work out something spe-
cific for campaign this spring In
order TO start right with the cooper
alton of an expert in this line of work,
the secretary telegraphed the ex-com-
missioner of highways for the state,
Charles P. Light, OF Washington, D. c.,
requesting his presence at the noon
day luncheon tomorrow. He replied
that he would either be here in per-
son or would send a good substitute.
For the last year the board of trade,
as an organization and cooperating
with the Harrison County Good Roads
Association, has been agitating bond
issue for the improvement OF the main
highways within the county. In June
last meetings were held at different
points throughout the county by road
experts, cooperating with the above
association, but nothing definite has
been formulated to carry on a syste-
matte campaign for bond issue,
either for the districts in which the
corporation OF Clarksburg is located,
or for the county as a whole. 1t is
now the determination of the directors
of the board of trade, working under
expert advice, to go ahead and lnau-
gurate campaign for better high
ways, which will result in a vote by
the people for bond issue for that
purpose.
AS Mr. Light is SO we'll known to the
citizens of Clarksburg and vicinity
generally, and to the members of the
board of trade particularly, it is
hoped that large representation will
be present to give him a rousing re-
ception and extend the support that
is necessary in order to make this
movement successful one. Any citi-
zen of Clarksburg or Harrison county
will be welcome at this meeting.

OLD MAN DIAZ
TO COME BACK
But Not until after the New
Government Has Things
in Hand.
ISIS UES STATEMENT
On His Intentions to the Asso-
ciated Press for Worlds
Information.
tBy Associated Press

KENEH, Egypt, Feb. 24.-Former
Dictator Diaz of Mexico declared to-
day that he is holding himself in readi-
ness to respond to the call of his coun-
try in case foreign complications
should arise out OF the revolution. If
this should not occur he said he would
not return to Mexico until the federal
government had been re-established,
and his reappearsnce on the scene
where he had held such long sway,
could be made without risk of being
wrongly interpreted. He expressed
the hope that Mexico would continue
under the policy of the United States
He was greatly elated at the success
of his nephew, FeliS Diaz, and of Cen
eral Hureta, whom he considered
quite capable Of working out the sal
walton of the republic.
The ex-president after pleading that
his entire retirement from politics of
the country precluded any criticism
by him of the late President Madero's
administration, made the following
statement TO the Associated Press:
Il prefer to say nothing regarding
the fall of Madero's rule or the cause
of the revolution. AS political OPP
ponent of Madero, my opinion might
be considered bad. General Huerta is
an officer and gentleman who pos
sesses the confidence of all Mexico.
Personally, ] have the greatest respect
for him and confidence in him.
think he is in a position to maintain
order until constitutional govern
ment has been definitely re-estab-
lished."
When asked regarding the probable
ity of further complications in Mexico,
General Diaz replied. "That depends
entirely upon the energy of the pro-
vsional government in suppressing
pillage and brigandage. Felix Diaz has
had long experience and fully realizes
the Importance of enforcing respect
for life and property

OPINION AS TO MEXICO
And Congress Itself is Not

New Government Insists That
1t Was Acting in Good
Faith with Madero.
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, d. C., Feb. "a
The Fourth brigade of the army
division, and the entire Sixth brig
AIDE were ordered today to prepare
to entrain to join the other trooIG
being mobolized. This is part OF
the plan to assemble a complete mil
itary Organization for eventualities in
Mexico.
Troops received formal orders
here to prepare to actually start.
The Sixth brigade and the Fourth
brigade are on their way to Calves
ton.
Orders for the movement Of the
Sixth cavalry at Des Moines, Ia. also
were prepared. 1t was expected that
Secretary stimson would issue these
orders today.
The extent to which the recogni-
ton may be extended by the United
States to the Huerta government has
not been determined. From the
present indications this will depend
largely upon the recognition of AM
bass.dor Wilson. The question is
likely to be brought to the initiative
very soon, The Huerta government
it is understood is not disposed to
remain satisfied with the actions or
Ambassador Wilson in recognizing
it as lelacto government. The
only fact that is likely to be consid-
cred is that recognition, however, is
in a sense involved in decision Of
any question OF intervention in Mex
lea affairs.
President-elect Wilson himelf has
declared that he has not changed his.
policy as result of the latest devel-
opments in the Mexican capital, and
it remains true that probably only
the extreme jeopardy OF Americans
and foreigners generally in Mexico
would be regarded as sufficient for
departure from that policy.
Developments of the last forty
eight hours apparently have not
changed the general sentiment in
Congress against any immediate ac-
ton towards American iaterven-
ton.
