Diaz To be Candidate.

MONTREAL. Aug. 9.-"Whatever
the consequences, I shall run for
president ir October. next. and all my
plans are ready" said General Felix
Diaz. who arrived in Montreal to-
night, with his secretary, Senior
Romeros.
Seen at the Ritz-Carlton. niaZ ex-
cused the present unrest In Mexico,
saying that the Madero administra-
tlon was running the country with its
extravagant expenditures. and that II
was not the temper of the people to
wait the close OF the constitutional six
years, and depose the government by
ballot, but that arms should he re-
sorted to.
Diaz was quite sangune that be
fore long the United States would
change her attitude on non-recogni-
ton of The present administration. lie
felt that President Wilson would
eventually review the situation in a
manner which would promote better
feeling. General Diaz was OF Van
couver waiting a boat TO take him to
Japan on a mission to strengthen
the relations between Mexico and that
country. when he was advised by his
govern MT to go to Europe. and dc
what he could to promote friendly
) aentimen's there. with regard to hi.
! trip to Europe. he was reticent.

JURY OUTLINING ITS
MAIN POINTS
CASE TO JURY TO-DAY

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. IA re-
cord crowd Of men and women choket
fthe corridors of the United States Dis
trict court today to catch a glimpse o,
Maury Digs, defendant in the white
slaves case, and his wife, father. moth.
er and aunts. as well as Drew Cant
netti and his wife. All the women OF
the party were heavily yelled to guard
against camera men and motion pic
ture operators.
Diggs and his wife, and Mrs Drew
Caminetti, were the only witnesses
case for the defense ended, and Pro-
secutor Roche began his address to
the jury.
Made Good Witness.
Digs made good witness last Fri
day. but he collapsed under the rigid
cross examination, and he was forced
to admit some ugly things. The two
wives confined their testimony To
their efforts to separate the husbands
from the two girls, who seemed to
have infatuated them. They were not
cross examined.
The case ought to go to the txry
tomorrow afternoon.
The session began with Diggs or
the stand. AS the defendant related
incidents in his relations with Marsha
Warrington. his wife, handsome
and vivacious brunette. fixed her gaze
on the jury. Mrs. Caminetti also was
forced to hear the tale of the infidelity
of her husband from the lips of his
accomplice.
Diggs consumed the entire morning
in the effort, directed by his counsel
to convince the jury he planned the
Reno elopment, not only to save the
girls, from impending scandal and
disgrace, but to spare his own wife
and family from the shame he said
was sure to attend his remaining In
Sacramento.
Prosecutor Sullivan brought out
during his cross denomination that the
defendants solicitude had to do with
Digs cashing of several fictitious
checks. rather than with his fear OF
prosecution for his conduct toward
two Sacramento girls. aged fifteen and
seventeen, other than Marsha War
rington. and Lola Norris, and who are
now in the custody of q local instis
tuition.
fh Admits and Denies.
The defendant reluctantly admitted
the police were after him for passing
worthless checks. but he denied he an
ticipated trouble on account of his
alleged relations with two girls Sui
Ivan referred to.
The wives made good witnesses. but
their story had so little bearing or
the case that the prosecution didn't
Cross-examine them.
Then Prosecutor Roche began his
closing speech to the jury. He sum
married the governments case. and
dwelt on the fact that ii had been
proved Digs paid the fares of these
girls to Reno. and induced them to &C
after much persuasion, and that he
and Caminetti lived in immoral rea
tons with these girls for three days

CANADIAN LAW
VERY EXPLICIT
THAW WILL BE TAKEN TO THE
VERMONT STATE LINE AND
"sHoyED OVER"

WASHINGTON. Aug. 19.---Accord-
ing to experts in the immigration
service, 1t Is practically certain that
Harry Thaw, II he has been arrest
ed In Canada. will be returned to the
United States. They point out that
the Canadian immigration law is so
specific on this point, as to leave
nothing open for controversy.
Thaw's attorneys, however, could
insist upon a legal fight in Canada,
and through 1t bring on complicat-
ed situation. which might present en-
barrassments for President Wilson
and Secretary OF State Bryan. Thaws
attorneys could argue that under no
circumstance is there any possibility
of his becoming public charge, and
they could then challenge the Cana
dian authorities to prove that Thaw
Is insane.
The belief of immigration officials
here is that Thaw will be taken TO
the point where he crossed from the
United States into Canada, and there,
hguratively speaking, showed over the
line. This appears to be In New
Hampshire Then, SO far as the Cam
adam government Is concerned. the
State of New York and the State of
New Hampshire could fight 1t out be-
tween themselves, as to the disposal
OF this undesirable citizene.

Very little wind accompanied the

Immigration Commissioner Clark, of
Montreal, will also be present. and

the fact that he has been an inmate

has escaped from an asylum prevents
his doing so. AS the case stands. 1t
