ence OF an iron-handed ruler, no

Revolt Against Huerta.
The consular agent at Parral has Ie-
ported to Consul Letcher that volun-
teers at Parral have revoIted against
the Huerta government. The move
melt seems to be small. however. and
confined to a small VICINITY.
At Juarez, the officials, military and
civil, who held office under Madero
continue to hold Office, although Con-
sui Edwards states that the relations
are rather strained. 1t is anticipated
that these officials VIII be removed.
Madero sympathizers are said TO be re-
sponsible for the destruction OF all
road tracks and bridges some distance
from Juarez
They have succeeded in effectualiy
breaking off all railway communication,
Much bitterness is manifested between
the Madero and Huerta factions, al
though Consul Edwards reports that no
hostility has been recently manifested
toward Americans.

also made on the severity of the sem

At the opening of court counsel for

to file q supplementary brief. Counsel
severely attacked the brief recently
filed by the committee Of prosecutors.

counsel also refute the claim that q
boycott existed after December q. 1907.
The charge Is further made that the

Rule Does Not Apply.
AS to the APPLICATION of the statute Of
limitations, the attorneys argue:
Assuming that the proceedings in
this case are had in equity, tho COM
mittee suggests that the statutory rule
cannot apply.
1T is manifest that il this be an
equity proceeding to secure the punish-
ment OF an offender. the power Of the
power of criminal court, and in the ad-
ministration Of concurrent remedies. It
will be the duty of the court Of equity
to follow the legal rule establishing
''If it be not concurrent. then It is the
duty Of the court Of equity by analogy
to follow the legal rule, no excuse what
soever having been furnished the court
for the delay in the proceedings. 1t
makes. therefore. no difference what
soever In the result whether we pro-
coed in equity or at law to punish con-
tempt, 1t once being established. as we
think 1t has been beyond q peradven-

tirely applicable In the case of civil
contempts, and entirely inapplicable in

TO SPEND $25,OOO,OOO
ON PUBLIC BUILDINGS
Measure is Passed By The
House

Washington, d. c., Feb. 1S.-AfteI
acrimonious debate the house yester
day passed the buildings bill, authori2-
ing erection of $25,OOOOOO worth OF
public scructures throughout the
country. The vote on the bill was
1874 to 46, and the opponents of the
measure were unable to muster suffi-
cient votes to secure a roll call to in
sure record vote.
Representative Fitzgerald, of New
York, chairman of the house appro-
priations committee, and Representa-
tive Hardwick, of Georgia, vigorous
ly attacked the democratic side for
their support of the bill.
THE sham economists advocating
public building bills which fasten OBJ
legations upon the treasury" declare
ed Mr.. Fitzgerald, either should quit
talking economy or should attempt IL
stop the authorizations which make
Inevitable the expenditure of large
sums of public money. l denounce as
indefensible this method of passing a
public building bill. 1t ties together
everybody with an item in it and makes
it impossible to give close scrutiny and
attention to the bill. I understand
this bill has been so scientifically pre-
pared that it cannot be defeated"
Representative Hardwick was bitter
in his denunciation of the bill.
Il believe" he said, honestly and
candidly that this is the worst bill OF
its kind ever reported to an American
house of representatives. do not
think that in the palmiest days of Cam
nonism as rotten proposition ever
came to this house.
There are things in this bill no one
can defend. submit to you that each
one of you in your heart of hearts
knows that this bill is not right, that
instead of being in the interest of the
public service and of the people OF
the United States, it is in the inter
est of the political fortunes of indi-
vidual members on both sides of the
house"
Representative Burnett, Representa-
tive Clark, of Florida, and Representa-
tive Austin, of Tennessee, defended
the bill, declaring it was framed ON an
economical basis after two years when
no public building bills were passed
