impeachment Of Governor and His
Fight For Direct Primary Reform
Play Important Part In New York
Democratic Primaries-Frends Of
Tammany Beaten at tho Polls.

New York, Sept 17.-The impeach-
ment Of Governor Sulzer and his fight
for direct primary reform, played an
important part In yesterdays demo-
cratic party primaries in New York
state The governors friends main
tanned that these issues were respon-
sible for the defeat the regular demo-
cratic organization suffered In several
localities. In Buffalo and Rochester
the regular democratic organizations,
which lined up with Tammany In the
Sulzer impeachment fight. were badly
beaten. In Albany county Former Com
mitteeman McCabe came so near defeat
that the party leadership may remain
in doubt until the official count.
In New York City the SulZer issue
was not apparent Only one democrat
district leader was unhorsed and this
contest was purely local.
Suffers threat to make the demo-
cratic assemblymen smart for defeat
ing his direct primary measure was
recalled today when returns showed
that four of the assemblymen who
voted against this measure and for his
Impeachment were defeated for nom
ination in Buffalo
All five democratic nominees for
assemblymen in Monroe county. which
includes Rochester, were defeated by
the opponents of TamInany hall. One
OF Monroe's five representatives in the
assembly at present Is a democrat.
The primaries held by the other
parties have no state wide features to
distinguish them.
The vote thruout the city was eX-
tremely light. 1t was the first primary
under the Blauvelt direct primary act
and for the first time an American flag
tioated above each polling place.
These flags are to be returned to the
board of elections and the law provides
that inspectors failing to return them
will receive no pay for their services,
Eighty per cent of the inspectors who
made their returns this morning kept
the flags nevertheless.

UNITED STATES PLANS TO RE-
TAIN wARsHlPs IN MEXICAN
WATERS At PLEASURE.
NATION WITHIN ITS RIGHTS
UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS
International Laws Affords United
States Right 70 Protect lts Subjects
-Husrta in Message TO Congress In.
timatss That Vessels Will es Unwsi-
come After Another Month.

Washington. Sept 17.-American
battleships probably will remain in
Mexican waters despite Huerta's decla-
ration that they will be unwelcome aft
er another month. There was no Of
ficial expression Of the governments
attitude today. but It was plain that
the United States will keep its vessels
of the Atlantic and Pacific coasts as
long AZ American security warrants.
1t was pointed out that international
law affords the United States the right
to protect its subjects in q foreign
country where disorder prevails and TO
that end may dispatch warships to
ports where American interests de-
mand protection.
In the last year American ships have
been dispatched on such missions to
ports In Nicaragua, Venezuela and the
Dominican republic. Visits from ves-
sells Of the Asiatic fleet have Gained
the fears Of. Americans in the Chinese
revolutionary districts.
1t was pointed out today that Ameri-
can warships in Mexican waters would
continue to adhere strictly to the in
junction Of President Huerta not ito
entail an attack on the dignity and
sovereignty Of Mexico" but further than
that 1t Is not likely that the Wilson
administration will accept dictation
from Huerta as to the circumstances
in which American vessels may lie off
the Mexican coast.
v. 8. Attitude Unchanged.
An abstract of Huerta's message is
to be studied by Secretary Bryan, who
is prepared to discuss 1t with President
Wilson,. Particular attention is at
tracted by Huerta's announcement that
the electoral law has been promulgated
providing for an election In October. It
d regarded an significant that Huerta
y expecting to hold an election despite
the revolutionary movement. The
Huerta party will take the ground that
swing to the Limitation CT the rebel
Ion to the two states Of Sonora and
Durango, the constitutional prohibition
.gainst the conduct Of national elec.
ion while the country is not at peace
would not apply.
1t was said at the state department
that so far there appeared to be MOTH
ing to cause the United States to
change it's attitude.

Angeles Editor.
Los Angeles, Sept. 17.-For the Sec
ond time within three years a bomb
yesterday jeopardized the life OF Gen.
Harrison Gray Otis. owner Of the Los
Angeles Times, which was destroyed by
dynamite Oct. /. 1910. That he escaped
injury probably was due to the watch
full eye OF his Japanese servant, who
received from the postman an internal
machine mailed in this city. and called
his employers attention to 1t.
The first Internal machine directed
at the life Of General Otis was found at
his residence few hours after his
newspaper plant had been destroyed
thru the efforts Of the Mcnamara con-
spirators.
The attempt on his life yesterday
was attributed by the general to agen-
cies friendly to those whose conspiracy
eventuated in the destruction of his
newspaper plant and the killing of
twenty-one men three years ago. But
the police and postal authorities be-
lieved something might be developed
from the theory that the Mexican
question had q part in it.

ing to report, by the employment of
Chinese in the places Of Mexican Ia
borers by ranchers in Lower California.
but General Otis asserted at the time
that none were employed by him.
The bomb reached The Bivouac,
General Otis home, at II o'clock. 1t
was contained in a small package
about five inches long. three inches
wide and two inches deep. 1t was
wrapped in brown paper and bore Gen
eral Otis address written in what was
believed to be a disguised hand.
With other mail 1t was given by the
postman to the Japanese servant. who
removed the wrapping paper before
taking 1t to General Otis, who was
writing in an upper room Of his resi-
dence. He told the general that he
thought there was something suspici-
GUS about the package.

Capt. F.. B. Felts. powder expert in
the police department, took the ma

the city near the Los Angeles river and
there pried open the box. He found
matches fixed to the inside Of the box
in such a way that IL 1t were opened in
